Screen problems with pixelation

My Ipod Classic screen has started to pixelate with short black line appearing top centre of the screen, any fixes or is the unit about to be defunct????

Ken, The problem is: The buttons don't work. So I cannot use Edit...
But:
I reïnstalled Adobe Elements 10 for the 4th time
Cleaned my register again.
restarted my computer
Did a computer reset to an earlier date
Installed Elements 10 again but .......not the try version of Premiere Elements.
Now Elements 10 has a normal screen.
This was a try and error sollution. I hope it will last.

Problem with Pixel Bender

Hi - I am 85 years old and not very experienced with computer jargon etc. My problems with Pixel Benders only started after I recently had my Dell 64 bit computer upgraded. Previously it used Windows XP and had 4 gigs of RAM my graphics card had only 64 MB. HOWEVER, before the upgrade Pixel Bender filters worked perfectly, I have a folder in "My Pictures" that contains 65 images that have all been treated with a variety of P B filters, I am very pleased with the results. My software includes Photoshop CS5 also Lightroom 3.
My upgrade, done by a professional technician, involved, wiping my internal hard drive completely (everything was backed up on two external hard drives) the installation of Windows 7 - 64 bit and additional RAM (it now has 8 gigs) When it came to re installing the Pixel Benders it was a nightmare. I had to make several calls to Adobe technical support before it would download I even had to allow the technician to access my computer. The next problem was that the Pixel Benders would no work. I looked at the Adobe Forum and found that others had experienced the same problem. One solution seemed to be to install a graphics card with more MB, I therefore bought a GeForce GTSD 250 that has 1 GB of RAM. Whereas the 65 pictures in my Pixel Bender folder are 2000 pixels on the longest edge using my new system and graphics card the Pixel Bender filters will not work on any image that is more than 1000 pixels on the longest edge. Can anyone out there explain the reason for this?

Y 70-70 screen : problems with the black and white colors

Hi all, I just bought a Lenovo Y70-70 and already encountered several problems with the screen :- I had to change the notebook twice because of clearer zones on the black and because of dead pixels- The model I have now still presents irregularities in the black : if the screen is black, I can still see a few clearer zones on it, especially (but not exclusively) on the edges- concerning the white, I am a bit disappointed too : this color present zones that are sometimes ok, sometimes more yellow. Even if it is subtle, I nevertheless particularily see this effect when reading or typing, due to an optical effect that amplifies the phenomenom when text is displayed which tires my eyes. I also see it on colors like beige or grey. As I use this computer to play but also to work, it is uncomfortable. What I would like to know is if these problems are inherent to the screen, or if it is a defect. What should I do ? Did other people encounter the same problems ? I didn't find any setting to improve it. I found that these problems may be link to these, reported on the Y50-70 :- https://forums.lenovo.com/t5/Lenovo-P-Y-and-Z-series/Y50-Yellow-Dark-Yellow-Screen-Calibration/td-p/1868613- http://www.amazon.com/gp/customer-reviews/RCQNONXIKJJ5D/ref=cm_cr_pr_viewpnt?ie=UTF8&ASIN=B00MCJQ6MI#RCQNONXIKJJ5D Othewise this notebook is OK, playing with it is a real pleasure. Thank you for your answer,S.

Installation of Mavericks is the culprit here. Lightroom versions 4.4 and earlier are not fully compatible with OS 10.9.x. There will be no more updates to Lightroom version 4.x so the only fix is to upgrade Lightroom to 5.0 or later or reinstall an older OS on Mac.

There can be several things that could effect your issue. If you are using a color calibration device, it may change your white balance. Check and verify that you really are using pure white when filling, a value of 255, 255, 255 thats red, green, and blue. Check and see what color mode you are in, are you in 8 bit, 16 or 32 bit. Are you in RGB, CMYK, or other color mode.
I am sure there are a few other things, that I haven't thought of at the moment that can effect your issue.
The next question is what do you mean by black and white? or should I say how did you make it that way. Was it already a black and white (grayscale)? or did you convert it in photoshop and if so how. The reason I ask is there are more than one way to convert a color image to black and white and how you do it will effect the final outcome.

Alpha channel problem with Pixel Bender blendShaders

I'm using Pixel Blender to try and create a blend shader for a Flex 4.0 app.
It looks like this:
<languageVersion : 1.0;>
kernel PixelReverse
<   namespace : "com.abc.def.filters";
    vendor : "EdAlive";
    version : 1;
>
    input image4 foreground;
    input image4 background;
    output pixel4 dst;
    void
    evaluatePixel()
        pixel4 fgPixel = sampleNearest(foreground, outCoord());
        pixel4 bgPixel = sampleNearest(background, outCoord());
        if((bgPixel.r == 0.0) && (bgPixel.g == 0.0) && (bgPixel.b == 0.0) && (bgPixel.a == 0.0)){
            bgPixel.r = bgPixel.g = bgPixel.b = 1.0;
        dst.r = 1.0 - abs(fgPixel.r - bgPixel.r);
        dst.g = 1.0 - abs(fgPixel.g - bgPixel.g);
        dst.b = 1.0 - abs(fgPixel.b - bgPixel.b);
        dst.a = fgPixel.a;
It looks correct in the Pixel Bender preview window.
When I use it in a Flex project with proper 32 bit png images, the filter seems to work correctly, except it sets any partial alpha value on the images to fully opaque (like a 1 bit alpha channel).
Because the image preview looks correct in Pixel Bender, I'm assuming it's a problem with the bitmap data that Flex is passing to the blend shader filter.
I tried changing the filter to simply output a copy of the foreground firstly, and the background second, to test.
When returning a copy of the foreground, the imags weren't visible on stage, either because the pixels were transparent or because it was really returning the background pixels, camouflaging the images.
When returning a copy of the background, the images were just black rectangles.
The images are being place on stage programmatically inside an mx Module, and having their depth property set.
They also have draggable behaviour, where the current drag object is layered above all else during the drag.
I'm actually using a subclass of mx.controls.Image, but am simply setting the source property with preloaded bitmap data, so I'm am fairly sure the subclass is not a factor.
I hope this is enough information for someone to be able to provide some help.
Thanks

Screen Problems with iMac G5 20" (iSight)

Hello!
I had the same problem with my iMac G5 20" (iSight) as described by Bob North Apr. 18, 2006 at http://www.macintouch.com/readerreports/imacg5/topic2276.html#apr25:
"""" I repair Apple products, and recently I've seen strange and erratic display problems with the G5 flat-panel (iSight) 17" and 20"...and I am very curious about the origin. The picture will display what I will call "plaid pixles". Upon boot, the dispaly appears normal, but within 5-10 minutes, either at desktop or in ASD, the normal display will "crash" to the "plaid" display. The desktop, or whatever, can still be distinguished in the background, but it is overwashed by the plaid patterns -- which do change slightly, and also cover the full space of the screen. I've seen different scenarios, 3 in 2 weeks, where the symptom is exhibited with no particular failure pattern -- both before and after repair. I've replaced the main logic on one occasion, with no fix...but the 2nd try replaced both display panel and inverter. The display issue was fixed, but the system exhibited lockups only when it reached the destop. Another repair the same issue was seen after replacing the 20" main logic, where the symptom was not present previous. Personal opinion of the late 2005 IMAC flat-panels, in the hardware sense, is the likelihood of component manufacture issues, possibly the main logic boards or the panel displays themselves. Repair of this model, as opposed to the earlier, non-iSight flat-panel 17 and 20" models are extremely difficult -- access to main componenets is blocked by the display panel, which must be removed for each troubleshooting attempt. The internal hardware design is not oriented for repair ease...they are by far the most difficult to work on.
Any input regarding the display issues? Thanks.""""
I can't use the mouse or anything else, and after a while the fans start to go on max. This is the second time I encounter this problem within 30 days. What I have noticed is that the day before, the brightness of the screen started to "blink" slightly -- like if the screen tried to adjust itself.
But I haven't experienced what Bob North describes as the: "Upon boot, the dispaly appears normal, but within 5-10 minutes, either at desktop or in ASD, the normal display will "crash" to the "plaid" display".
I just restart with the power button and everything is working OK. I made an Extended Hardware test without any problems detected.

Does it look anything like this?

My nearly 3 year old Titanium PowerBook G4 just did this one day, out of the blue. The problem went away after a few minutes, but I had already taken photos. Thanks to those photos, Apple gave the powerbook a new logic board.
(This PowerBook has had its logic board replaced twice, a new optical drive, and a cracked case edge replaced. AppleCare has more than paid for itself. Despite the occasional problems, I remain very happy with this machine. I'm sure I'd be much less happy if I had not bought AppleCare!)

IDVD problems with pixelating

My wife is working on an iDVD project of old and new family photos. She is having a particular problem when playing the dvd back on a television.
She shows a close-up of an old photo that was scanned into the computer. She then zooms out and creates a still image of that photo using "save frame as." She then adds a title that is not as long as the entire clip so it splits the clip.
When we play this back on a television through a DVD player, the second one (without the title) distorts and becomes somewhat pixelated. It is worse on some photos than on others.
Is this a problem that can be rectified with a slower burn speed? We don't notice the pixelation when we watch it on our computer prior to burning. Help us if you can. Thanks!

Temporary SOLUTION!!!
Mac know about the problem with iDVD6 and are working on it!
iDvd 6 doesn't understand volume changes / audio clip changes (cuts) in the second/ bottom audio track..... This is causing major hassles for dialogue drops in backing audio with iMovies putting forward a perfect film that iDVD6 can't follow!!
In the meantime an Apple support guy called Ben Donelly ( God Bless Him!!)
Has found us a lifeline!!!
This is the temporarfy work around.... and you must watch the clock time wise in iMovie and garage band ( which you're going to use!) so that you can change the up's & down s in volume in time with footage.
Firstly import your audio files to GARAGEBAND (the guitar symbol!!)
click the disclosure triangle for the track.
( i did this by exporting from iTunes!)
Change the track volume by selecting master then deal with it as you would in iMovie.
When you've done all your changes ( Cuts can be done too!) at the time points you have in iMovie export the whole track to iTunes by choosing share.
In I movie select the new song you have titled in the media section of iTunes!
My faith is Restored!!!
Thank you Ben Donelly!!

Recurring screen problems with the x220

Hi,
Does the x220 have a known problem with the IPS screens ...
In November I came across this issue https://twitter.com/colonelrosa/status/271035133967101952/photo/1 Nothing to do with the video card and the screen was flickering based on the opening position..
Thought it was a one off problem, send it back and got a replacement in December, fine.
Now only a few months later the same thing is happening to my replacement: https://twitter.com/colonelrosa/status/310716193529020416/photo/1
It's the same area too. My warranty is live until 2015, but I can't take a week off every few months when it dies again.
My opinion of Lenovo has changed somewhat, I thought the computers were supposed to be built like tanks but I guess they're not as reliable as I'd heard.
I'm getting in contact with support tomorrow, I guess I'm just venting here. *sigh*.

hey ODub,
before all of this started, was any software installed or removed ?
and before the bios was updated, was the unit freezing less or more ?

White/Black Screen Problems With Flash Player

I have had a problem with flash player since updating it in November. Certain websites such as YouTube and Worldstarhiphop work perfectly while other websites such as Facebook produce black or white screens when trying to play videos. If you attempt to play a video on a website in which you get the black or white screen, you can still hear the audio. While that is annoying it is only a minor inconvenience, the biggest problem is with other websites that require flash. I currently want to run an internet speed test on my computer but I can not find a website that my flash player will work with. The weird thing is that the animation at (http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player.html) plays correctly.
To fix the problem, I have attempted to uninstall and reinstall flash player. I have also tried changing the settings, enabling/disabling hardware acceleration. I feel like I've tried just about everything and I'm running out of ideas. I currently am using flash version 12.0.0.44 through Internet Explorer 11.0.9600.16518. My computer is running on Windows 7. Does anyone have any idea's on how to fix this problem?

I am having the same problems and have tried all the posted solutions with no positive result, so far.
Similar to above… on all of the web pages on which I am unable to see the flash videos, if I click in the flash window to start the video, all I get is audio playback with a black or white screen.
However… If I move the mouse around inside the flash window, I can see that the mouse pointer still reacts wherever the video control buttons are located at the bottom (although I can’t see the buttons, themselves). And if I click the “full screen” button …. usually in the lower right… my view goes to full screen and the video appears!
I don’t know about everyone else, but my problem appears to be limited to:
Specific websites (facebook, most news websites)… I have no problem with Youtube or the Adobe Test Page.
Viewing video in the embedded flash window on the web page... Opening the video to full screen allows me to see it.
I’ve tried this on several of my problem websites with consistent “success” at viewing videos. It's an annoying solution, but at least I can see the videos.

TS2570 I have the gray screen problem with the white apple and spinning wheel

I have the gray screen problem when it boots to the white apple and spinning wheel, but when I tried safe booting and doing the fsck thing I think I only made it worse, because it now starts, the safe mode progress bar comes on, (no matter if I press any keys or not) and after a minute shuts down again by itself. I also tried the command option, p, r thing and that did not work either, only brought me to the gray screen with the white apple, spinning wheel, and bar, and it promptly shut down. I am thinking more and more that I need the disk, but im not sure I have it. is it possible to order a new one online or is there another thing I can try? there is not an apple store nearby, and ereasing my data is not an option.
Also Im not sure what my exact opporating system is, but I did buy and download mountainlion in August so It is pretty new

Screen problems with photoshop elements 10

I installed Photoshop Elements 10 and Premiere Elements.
Premiere Elements works allright, but Photoshop E 10 gives screen problems.
De menu's on the top roll out, but there is no text in them.
The screen in Organiser is distorted.
I reinstalled P E 10 but the same problem accurs.
I dit a computer reset to an earlier date and installed Ph.E. 10 again but the same problem. No text in the topmenus and a distorted screen in Organiser.
Letters become 6x larger than normal.
All my other programms work fine. I never had screenproblems.
I use Elements 8 now again and that works fine.
I use: Windows 7
Card: NVIDEA GeForce GT 220 resolution 1680x1050
Do I have to remove Elements 8 before installing Ellements 10? Is that perhaps the problem?

I have Possible screen problem with iPhone 5 - Is this normal?

I have an iPhone 5 purchased about 4 months ago and I'm not sure if this is a defect or not but when I boot up the iPhone and the Apple logo appears all around the logo is totally black except for the upper left corner. That corner has a yellowish/whitish tint when I assume like the rest of screen around the logo it should be totally black. There is no other issue or complaint about it I just I'm just wondering if this is common or can lead to future screen problems.
Thanks for all your input!

This is not normal. Bring your phone to Apple for evaluation
