Screen is sticking out...?
Okay, this is kind of hard to explain, but I'll try.
So basically, a basketball hit the back of my screen (I know... but it wasn't my fault), and now on the bottom it's kind of bulging out. In the middle, the screen sticks out over the casing; also, when I lower or raise the screen, it occasionally flickers.
I have no clue what to do; should the whole LCD be replaced? Could someone just kind of... push it back in? (Unlikely, I know.) The gist of it is, I'm very confused about what I should do / who I should contact.
Thanks!
Your LCD screen was damaged. It's kind of misuse, so I don't think you can be covered by apple care, if you have it.
If you have further question or need help, you can send me an email. I'm glad to reply your email.

Sounds like an activation issue. Quite Premiere Pro. Sign out of Creative Cloud. Restart Premiere Pro. Sign back in: http://bit.ly/CC-sign-out
Hope that works for you.

DVD Drive Module on Pismo sticks out of expansion bay. Any way to fix?
I just picked up a Pismo the other day and found a DVD drive for it on ebay, which works perfectly, but the drive sticks out of the expansion bay a little unless I put some pressure on the bottom or the top of the computer. Of course, when I release pressure, the drive pops out a little again. Should i be worried about this at all, or is it just cosmetic? Is this a common problem? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
soul,
It sounds like the little plastic tab on the release mechanism inside the frame is worn and is not holding the drive as far in the bay as it should, or the recess on the optical drive may be worn. If you remove the optical drive, you will see a small rectangular recess on the edge of the drive that engages a small tab on the lever. Look into the empty bay with a flashlight and you will see the tab and how the mechanism works.
Here is a picture of the recess (top picture) on the drive:

You cannot replace the levers, if necessary, without considerable disassembly of the 'book. Possibly you can improvise a thin spacer for the recess on the drive. -
After updating from CC to new 2014 updates Lightroom would not go from 'Library' to 'Develop' - develop screen was greyed out showing the message 'Develop module is disabled. Please renew your membership to reactivate the Develop module.' Since my membership is fully up to date. I then uninstalled Lightroom 5 and then installed it again. Now when I try to open Lightroom 5 its LOGO flashes onto the screen and then 'crashes' in an instant. Please fix.

My Safari screen is grayed out. It does not respond to touch. How to bring it back to life?
My Safari screen is grayed out. It does not respond to touch. How can I restore it back to life?
Go to Settings>Safari>Clear History, Cookies and Cache. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and slide to shut down. then hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears to start up.
You can also reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep button and home button at the same time until the Apple logo appears (takes about 10 seconds) - ignore the red slider.

T400 & T500 Battery size - what sticks out and what doesn't? *EMBEDDED IMAGES*
I've been seeing a lot of discussion around the various notebook communities about batteries, and wanted to take a moment to discuss them. The big question on everybody's mind is: which batteries fit flush on the new T400 & T500, and which don't?
I'm still trying to get accurate measurements of how far the batteries stick out the back of these machines and I will update this post when I have them. I just wanted to get this out there to hopefully answer people's questions sooner than later.
Lastly, please note this information applies to R400 & R500 as well.
Edit Saw this question out there and I updated the info below to show the extra mount of runtime one battery has over another. Obviously your runtime will vary based on usage, but given the capacity of the battery, one can derive how much longer it will run at a given usage level.
also, anyone know how much longer the life is on a 9 cell vs a 6 cell?
8/14 Edit - Added all battery measurements except 9-cell. Stay tuned. Note that I also included the total depth of the battery, which is how I calculated how far the batteries stick out. (Depth of larger battery) - (Depth of flush battery) = amount sticking out. I'm normally good with numbers and a calculator, but if I made a mistake feel free to correct me.
8/18 Edit - The measurements for the 9-cell battery are now below, and added photo comparing two systems. Thanks to Matt Kohut for having the systems and the camera.
T400
Short answer - the batteries are the same on T61 and R61 14.1" widescreen:
4-cell: Flush
6, 7, 9-cell: Sticks out
(Note: The 7-cell battery is actually replaced by the 9-cell now)
Long answer:
Length sticking out back of system:
4-cell: 0 inches (1.57 inches deep)
6-cell: 1 inch (2.57 inches deep)
7-cell: 1.08 inches (2.65 inches deep)
9-cell: 1.47 inches (3.04 inches deep)
Part number:
4-cell: 41U3196
6-cell: 41U3198
7-cell: 41U3197
9-cell: 43R2499
Capacity in Wattage-hours:
4-cell: 37.44
6-cell: 56.16 50% longer run-time than 4-cell
7-cell: 74.88 100% longer run-time than 4-cell, 33% longer than 6-cell
9-cell: 84.24 125% > 4-cell, 50% > 6-cell, 12.5% > 7-cell
Important note about 9-cell on T400: As some of you have noted, this battery is uniquely shaped as shown in the photo below. This was done to allow for the increased run-time of the 9-cell battery while still fitting in all of our docking stations. Note that we are no longer offering the 7-cell battery for purchase with new systems and it will not be something offered going forward, you may still be able to purchase it from your local Lenovo teams or resellers/business partners. Contact them directly to find out.
Note: These pictures are of a T61, but you get the idea...
6-cell T61 on top, 9-cell T400 on bottom
T500
Short answer - the batteries are the same on T61 and R61 15.4" widescreen/14.1" standard:
6-cell: Flush
9-cell: Sticks out
Long answer:
Length sticking out back of system:
6-cell: 0 inches (2.3 inches deep)9-cell: 0.83 inches (3.13 inches deep)
Part number:
6-cell: 40Y6799
9-cell: 40Y6797
Capacity in Wattage-hours:
6-cell: 56.16
9-cell: 84.24 50% longer runtime than 6-cell

X60 Tablet SXGA+ primary, Z61p fully loaded workhorseThe part number for my 6-cell battery that I received on my system configuration differs than the one that you have listed.
42V9338 SBB 6 CELL LI-ION BATERRY
Could it be that T61 batteries are backwards compatible with the T400 and that the T400 also has new batteries?
From looking at the lenovo site to order the T400 it does suggest that 6 cell sticks out but I feel that it could be one of the many errors (although many have been fixed) on the site.
If you look at tabook.pdf the T61 with a 6 cell has a depth of 10.2 inches whereas the T400 with a 6cell has a depth of 9.4 inches suggesting that the 6cell on the T400 would sit fairly flush with the back of the notebook. I find it hard to believe that the T400 with a 4cell battery has a depth of 8.5 or so inches.
Any further information would be appreciated -
JS/PS CS3: identify single pixels sticking out
In a bitmap, is it possible to identify single pixels sticking out from a shape? Let's say I have this black shape in a black-and-white bitmap:
xxxxxxxx
xxxxxxxx
xxxxxxxx
xxxxxxxx
x
an 8 by 4 rectangle with one pixel sticking out from the bottom. Question is, can I find such pixels using a script (JS) and make it white?
Thanks,
PeterPeter, I added the work around to the script. It appears to fix the problem. With my basic test files.

Problem outputting to the screen using FileDescriptor.out
I have the following program that reads prime numbers from a binary file. The issue is that the numbers are not printing to the screen using
FormatWriter out = new FormatWriter(
new BufferedWriter(
new FileWriter(FileDescriptor.out)));The numbers are being read from the file as if I unblock the line
// System.out.println(primes[j]); the numbers are printed to the screen.
I have pasted the code below and the code that creates the prime numbers file.
Thanks for any help.
package readprimes;
import java.io.*;
public class ReadPrimes {
public static void main(String[] args) {
File myPrimes;
DataInputStream primesIn;
try{
String directory = "C:/JunkData";
String fileName = "Prime.bin";
myPrimes = new File(directory, fileName);
primesIn = new DataInputStream(new FileInputStream(myPrimes));
catch(FileNotFoundException e){
return;
catch(IOException e){
return;
FormatWriter out = new FormatWriter(
new BufferedWriter(
new FileWriter(FileDescriptor.out)));
long[] primes = new long[6];
boolean EOF = false;
while(!EOF){
int index = 0;
try{
for(index = 0; index < primes.length; index++)
primes[index] = primesIn.readLong();
catch(IOException e){
return;
// catch(EOFException e){
// EOF = true;
for(int j = 0;j < index; j++){
// System.out.println(primes[j]);
out.print(primes[j]);
out.println();
out.close();
package readprimes;
import java.io.PrintWriter;
import java.io.*;
public class FormatWriter extends PrintWriter{
private int width = 10;
public FormatWriter(Writer output){
super(output);
public FormatWriter(Writer output, int width){
super(output);
this.width = width;
public FormatWriter(Writer output, boolean autoflush){
super(output, autoflush);
public FormatWriter(Writer output, boolean autoflush, int width){
super(output, autoflush);
this.width = width;
Class that creates the prime number file
package bufferedoutput;
import java.io.*;
public class TryPrimesOutput {
public static void main(String[] args) {
long[] primes = new long[200];
primes[0] = 2;
primes[1] = 3;
int count = 2;
long number = 5;
outer:
for(; count < primes.length; number +=2L)
long limit = (long)Math.ceil(Math.sqrt((double)number));
for(int i = 1; i <count && primes<= limit; i++)
if(number%primes[i]==0)
continue outer;
primes[count++] = number;
try
String dirName = "c:\\JunkData";
String fileName = "Prime.bin";
File myPrimeDir = new File(dirName);
if(!myPrimeDir.exists())
myPrimeDir.mkdir();
else
if(!myPrimeDir.isDirectory())
System.err.println();
return;
File primesFile = new File(myPrimeDir, fileName);
primesFile.createNewFile();
DataOutputStream primesStream = new DataOutputStream(
new BufferedOutputStream(
new FileOutputStream(primesFile)));
for(int i = 0; i <primes.length;i++)
primesStream.writeLong(primes[i]);
primesStream.close();
catch(IOException e){
System.out.println("IOExcetoptj");Indeed. It isn't obvious to me what the result of new FileWriter(FileDescriptor.out) would result in, but your test appears to show that it doesn't result in something which can be used to output to the console.

Screen is "half out." Anyone seen this before, anything I can do?
Hello,
I am a first time contributor to the Apple Support Communities. I have a 2006/2007 era MacBook pro that the screen is half out. I would like to get this fixed for my wife to use as her desktop, but I would like some guidance before I take it into a Genius Bar. Has anyone seen this before? Is it an easy (inexpensive) fix or is it not worth it (given the age of the machine). Any help would be beneficial. The machine runs awesome, I can use it, as long as i use the top 1/3rd of the screen.
Thank You,

Ipod Touch Screen wont time out?
So about two days ago I noticed that my ipod's screen wont time out and turn off, if I for example decide to manually change a song rather then skip it from my headphones, it stays on, so i have to manually turn of the screen while I'm playing music..I don't know why I haven't changed any settings or droped it nor has any water gone in it. Is this normal? I mean its not too much of a problem but since I do use it most of the day at work it makes my battery run out much faster. Any help is much appreciated.
It might be one of two things.
I know you said you didn't change any thing but,
Check under settings, general, and autolock it might be on 'Never' change that
Or i might be misunderstanding.
You might be use a stereo base and i don't know but if you are, the ipod, if on the 'Now Playing' page is up, will not go to sleep automatically -

LED notification stops by screen lock time out
I found some problem about LED notification. It stops by screen lock time out. My test procedure :- - Screen off by push the top button - Send test e-mail from laptop to my Q10, LED notification will flashing while now is black screen - Call in by another phone then screen will shown at the wall paper - Then after "screen lock time out", screen become dark and now LED flashing will stop So, I can not know the e-mail come in if I leave my phone for a while. Please help
I don't have a PIN lock set up, but still LED notifications for missed calls don't work on my Pre (GSM, o2 Germany), not even after waking up the screen. At least if I only have one missed call. Strangely enough, as soon as I have a second missed call, the LED starts to blink.
My guess is it has to do with the way the phone notifies about missed calls. With only one missed call I don't see a normal notification at the bottom of the screen, but a question dialog with two buttons "call back" and "close". Maybe the phone doesn't treat this as a real notification which would trigger the LED.
As soon as a second call comes in and is not answered, the first missed call notification becomes a real one-line notification at the bottom and the second call gets this question dialog, so maybe this is what triggers the LED notification. But I'm just guessing.
Anyway, this is really annoying. I can't understand why things like these are not found and fixed during testing of the update, this is pretty basic stuff, not any extraordinary user behavior.
