Screen is in zoom and will not revert to normal

Just upgraded to Leopard and a few days ago I accidentally clicked the desktop background (I believe this is what happened)and now the menu, dock and open screens are very large. The screen had black bars at the sides. I selected 800X600 stretch and fixed that. Universal access zoom did nothing. Where do I go to make the appearance look normal

If the screen is truly zoomed, then press the CTRL key and adjust the mouse's scroll wheel to change the zoom level. If this isn't the solution, then the screen is not zoomed, rather you may have it set to the wrong resolution. Open the Displays preferences and set the resolution to a higher level, preferably to the native resolution of whatever monitor you are using.

The screen is black, vibrates and will not let me off

the screen is black, vibrates and will not let me off

First try reseting your phone by holding down the home and lock buttons for about 10 seconds. If that doesn't fix your problem take it into an Apple Store to have it serviced.

My iphone 4 screen just went black and will not come back on, I can connect it and charge it and it makes noise but no screen?

What does it mean when your screen just goes black and will not turn back on? I can connect it to computer to charge and it recognizes it and charges it but no picture on screen.

Hey Krkirst10,
Thanks for the question. It sounds like you may have a hardware issue with your device, however let's try to isolate as much as possible to determine if that is so. To isolate the issue, follow the regular troubleshooting steps for power issues:
Will not turn on, will not turn on unless connected to power, or unexpected power off
1. Verify that the Sleep/Wake button functions. If it does not function, inspect it for signs of damage. If the button is damaged or is not functioning when pressed, seek service.
2. Check if a Liquid Contact Indicator (LCI) is activated or there are signs of corrosion.
Learn about LCIs and corrosion.
3. Connect the iPhone to the iPhone's USB power adapter and let it charge for at least ten minutes.
4. After at least 30 minutes, if:
               - The home screen appears: The iPhone should be working. Update to the latest version of iOS if necessary. Continue charging it until it is completely charged and you see this battery icon in the upper-right corner of the screen. Then unplug the phone from power. If it immediately turns off, seek service.
               - The low-battery image appears, even after the phone has charged for at least 20 minutes: See "iPhone displays the low-battery image and is unresponsive" symptom in this article.
               - Something other than the Home screen or Low Battery image appears, continue with this article for further troubleshooting steps.
5. If the iPhone did not turn on, reset it while connected to the iPhone USB power adapter.
               - If the display turns on, go to step 4.
               - If the display remains black, go to next step.
6. Connect the iPhone to a computer and open iTunes. If iTunes recognizes the iPhone and indicates that it is in recovery mode, attempt to restore the iPhone. If the iPhone doesn't appear in iTunes or if you have difficulties in restoring the iPhone, see this article for further assistance.
7. If restoring the iPhone resolved the issue, go to step 4. If restoring the iPhone did not solve the issue, seek service.
My issue is still not resolved. What do I do next?
Contact Apple Support.

HT1766 Is there a way to back your phone up to iCloud if you cannot access your phone? My screen is completely shot and will not my let unlock my phone to access anything!

Is there a way to back your phone up to iCloud if you cannot access your device? My screen is completely shot and will not me let unlock my phone to access anything!

If you think your phone is working even though the screen is broken, you might try backing it up to iTunes on your computer.
If you can't do this you could take it to an Apple store and see if they can back it up for you.

Mac gets hot then screen go to sleep and will not restart until cools down

Ever since I downloaded Lion on my mac I have noticed when I leave my mac while not using it it gets really warm.Next it goes into sleep mode and will not wake up with a tap of any button so I have to wait for it to cool down to restart.I have read other peoples problems with Lion could this be another glitch with the new operating system download?

I have been getting the black screen after waking. My screen is not set to sleep, so I don't know if it's related. Some discussion of the problem here:

My ipod touch's screen is changing colors and will not respond to the buttons

my sisters ipod touch is a 4th gen and the screen recently started changing colors, it does not respond to the buttons and will not turn off. should i wait for the battery to die then charge it. she said it started happening when she was charging it. could it be the charging cable? i do not know what OS it has.

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

Save as dialog box expanded to full screen, edge arrows flicker and will not pull the edges in.

This problem presented itself out of the blue. The Save As dialog box expanded to full screen, and although the arrows that appear when the mouse cursor is over the edge of a window are present, they flicker and do not grab the edge to pull it in. Every other window on the computer does not have an issue like this. Restarting Firefox or the computer does not eliminate the problem. I am hoping that there is a settings file somewhere that the numeric value for the dialog box size can be changed, since I do not want to completely reinstall the browser.
As a side note, if the browser has been running many downloads for a while, it will usually start failing to display information, and eventually will get to a point where the Save As box flickers for an instant and disappears and the entire browser becomes unresponsive for an hour or more. Downloads continue (including the one that it froze up on, albeit as a randomly named file in User...Temp), but it is not possible to restart the browser until the downloads complete (which in some cases can be several hours). Usually I revert to using IE11 until I can restart Firefox.
Perhaps one of my strongest dislikes of Firefox though is the issue with its resistance to copy and paste operations in the Save As dialog box. Most websites offer files with cryptic and even identical names for different files, so renaming files is a critical operation if one is to keep track of and later identify the files one has. A problem unique to Firefox, attempts to highlight and paste in a better file name usually are met with a refusal to paste, a stuck context menu that can take a minute of clicking to clear, repeated jumping to the end of the file name, and other similar issues. I have encountered this problem repeatedly on different computers and different operating systems, it is a problem I have only ever encountered in Firefox.

cor-el,
I kept forgetting and procrastinating about following your instructions, since I have internet access only for limited amounts of time and usually I am busy with important tasks when I am.
Out of the blue, the problem corrected itself (the Save As box started to open full screen, then shrunk down to a normal size and the edges can now be dragged to a custom size).
Even the copy and paste problem in the filenaming area seems to have been less troublesome lately even though there have been no updates to Firefox in a few weeks.
Even though I marked the solution as not helpful, the problem has in fact been resolved. I will save the solution instructions in case the issue returns.

IPhone home screen is zoomed in and will not zoom out. How do I get it back to normal?

My iPhone 6 home screen is zoomed in and will not return to normal, How do I get it back to normal?

If that did not work, then try triple-tapping the home button. If that does not work, then double-tap 3 fingers and hold on the screen, dragging to change the zoom level. If you need to move the screen around to be able to access something to get the device unlocked, then use 3 fingers to drag the screen around after trying to change the zoom level.

Screen display enlarged and will not shrink

iPod touch display screen photo is enlarged and will not shrink down, can't enter code to unlock. Have tried resetting by holding top & bottom buttons.
Any ideas?

First, try a Restore. Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync. From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab. Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup. You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod. Again, say "yes."
If you're unable to do the Restore, go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here.

Pavilion g7 laptop screen flashes colors and will not boot

When I power up my laptop, the screen flashes different colors and will not boot up

The service manual is for the G7 series notebook and is not exclusive to the g7-1368dx model. Different models within the G7 family uses different hardware and supports different hardware upgrade paths. This means that an item listed in the service manual is not necessarily supported for every model in the G7 family.
Is the notebook's product number A7A46UA?
If so, the motherboard this unit came with is the 649948-001 as listed in the service guide. All the parts for this unit can be found here.
I searched HP PartSurfer for the part number 669690-001, the A8 processor, and expanded the note at the bottom of the result page to see what units came with this processors. I reviewed three different models and each had the motherboard 649950-001.
The units that shipped with the A8 processor had a different motherboard than what the units that shipped with the A6 processor.
Due to A8 units having a different motherboard than the A6 units, I suspect that the motherboard your unit has does not actually support the A8 processor. Sorry.
