StarOffice 8 Update 8 screen issues.

Ever since installing the update, my client is having problems with funny red bars popping up and obscuring random cells in spreadsheets. Anyone else have that problem? Hoping there's a workaround, since SO8U8 fixes so many other bugs, hate to have to back it out...

Had to back out the patch. As soon as I did that, the spreadsheets all came back to normal. I don't have a StarOffice support contract, so I can't alert Sun to the problem that way. Not sure if Sun people ever read this, is there a bugreport address I can send the info to?

Staroffice Update 10 issues on Windows Vista....

I tried to installing StarOffice Windows update 10 (120187-14) yestersday. http://sunsolve.sun.com/show.do?target=patches/xprod-StarOffice&nav=pub-patches#staroffice8
Everything went well, but the about tab still says I'm using Update 9. Add/Remove program confirms I have Update 10 installed.
I tried to remove and reinstall, but same thing.
Today, I've tried doing this. http://forum.java.sun.com/thread.jspa?threadID=5248581
Now the about tab shows I'm using update 8. I wonder what's happening here. I'm using Vista.

Failing that, you could back up your iTunes Music Folder (just copy it to your desktop or something) then uninstall itunes and re-install the fresh copy. I know its a pain but sometimes doing this saves alot of messing about.
Then all you do is add all the stuff in the itunes music folder to your library again.
Ive done this myself a couple of times in the past on a windows PC

Flickering Screen issue after Mavericks update released on Feb 26, 2014

I own a Macbook Retina display bought in early 2014. After installing the recent Maverick update released around Feb 26, 2014 the display developed flickering problem while scrolling and now the scrolling is not smooth any more. The originally shipped machine did not have this problem. I tested other software including Photoshop and the display still flickers while panning the canvas. I also tried resetting the SMC - System Management Controller but it didn't work along with other attempts of resetting the disk permissions, running a systems cleaner, changing the wifi-router etc.
How to fix this flickering screen issue?

The problem came back lately and I tried this solution and it worked. Go to system settings > power saver > and switch off the Automatic Graphic switching. Not sure if this is a good solution, but it seem to have worked for the time being.

IPad2 - IOS 8.0.2 - Available Updates Screen Doesn't Refresh

Just took my IPad2 which was already running slow after the 8.0 update to 8.0.2
So far things seem okay but I have three App updates which have synced to the IPad2 but when you go into the Available Updates screen they all have the OPEN button across from the App description and Update All in the upper left hand corner of the screen is grayed out.
This was not an issue in 8.0
Anyone else seeing this and/or have a fix?
Thanks...Dave

IOs8 slowed and glitched many Apple devices from newer iPhones to the ipad2. My iPad suffered connectivity issues, and odd mail and airplane mode problems. The 8.0.2 patch was just released, and I made the error of installing it. USE CAUTION if you do this. My iPad2 crashed while installing the patch for the troublesome ios8 and is now frozen in recovery mode. I do not have an Apple computer to synch it to, thus negating the restore mode / iTunes option. It won't accept a hard reset. I have a cloud backup but without a USB / lightning cord and a computer synched to my ipad2 I cannot solve this. Apple support is closed, and in any case will charge a fee to simply open a service *conversation* with no guarantee it will solve the issue. I am sadly disappointed in Apple for this rollout, especially in light of their recent problems regarding security and neglecting known issues.

GE40 2OC Dragon Eyes - Screen Issues

Hello,
My notebook have screen issues, it goes black in some situations. Sometimes, when I turn on the notebook, the screen is already black and I cannot see anything, then I have to turn it off (pressing power button). It also goes black when I close notebook lid and reopen it (I have set up so that closing the lid does not do anything to the notebook). Also, minimizing or closing some fullscreen games like Skyrim or Resident Evil 6 makes the screen go black. When it goes black I turn notebook off. Please help :(.

Quote from: gtsgts;113598
He only reconnected the cable. So, it is better to replace it with a new one, right?
I can see the desktop when connected to HDMI, the notebook works normally, except the built in display.
Ok, I will update BIOS and report here =D
That issue of yours does not sem to be BIOS related problem at all so you would mostlikely have same problem after bios update, so best is to send it to repair where they will re-place the screen cable completely some times they get worn out and begins to glitch.

MORE D2G screen issues...

Ok, so I am having quite a few of the same problems listed in the 'screen issue' threads for the Droid 2, and D2G. The phantom finger on the screen, back/home buttons sometimes don't work, unable to scroll a web page without it zooming in, and when in wide screen mode (on side, or keyboard out) I can not slide the notification bar. I attempted to seek help at one of the local stores, but they blamed it on a tiny (almost unnoticeable) scratch which has been there for a very long time. This problem started last week with no damage occurring to it, and no new apps installed in several weeks. I've ran it in safe mode, and uninstalled every possible app on my phone as well as updates for the ones I couldn't. I have done everything that I know to do so far aside from a hard restart, but it doesn't seem like that would help considering that the issues still occur even when in safe mode. Is there another solution that I have yet to explore, or is my phone completely screwed?

I am having this same issue. My phone loves to hit the same area over and over--attempt to buy full cd's from Google Play and call people in the middle of the night. These are the actions I have already tried---help!
-Hard reset it 3 times
-Taken it to the Verizon Store-- they told me it could be something to do with 3G and not having the 4G
-Uninstalled Facebook (I read somewhere that is where the issue is happening)
-Installed a keyboard (Gingerbread Keyboard)-- then uninstalled it when that didn't seem to work
-Clear the Multi-touch keyboard in the manage apps section
-Cleaned the screen
-Taken the battery out and let it sit.
I am 2 months away from an upgrade. I was PROMISED this phone would last me the full 2 years--- HELP

Air 3.3 beta PC audio distortion / Air 3.1 / 3.2 Mac black screen issue

Hi there,
I've recently released a large game coded in Flash Builder with Air (www.lonesurvivor.co.uk), and I used Air 3's captive runtime feature to bundle it for Mac and PC.
The initial build used Air 3.2 and for a large proportion of OSX users, there were no visuals at all, just sound and the game obviously working underneath. This caused a very large support issue, and took several weeks to deal with, as well as having to maintain a seperate Projector version for those for whom the Air version wouldn't work. I wish I had known that the game would fail on some Macs, but unfortunately the issue showed up on none of the ones tested.
I'm about to launch the updated build of the game which uses Air 3.3 beta 1, as it seems to fix the black screen issue for all those who experienced it. I was very happy that Adobe have managed to iron this out, even if there was no response to the bug I entered into bugbase.
The problem is, on a final test on XP SP2, the 3.3 beta version produces what appears to be filtered graphics... which is how the Mac version has always appeared, but the PC version of the game seemed to use what looked like nearest-neighbour sampling in Flash's fulllscreen upscaling, which looked good for the zoomed pixel art in this game.
This is a small cosmetic issue, but there is another one whhich is far more severe - the audio has become extremely distorted, and is now unlistenable.
So with 3.2 giving me no visual on Macs and 3.3 giving me unlistenable audio on PCs, I will now have to maintain two versions again. I really would like to keep one project I can quickly make changes to, but the seperate problems in different platforms means I lose out on the great cross-platform functionality of Air. I'm hoping this is a known issue, but I couldn't find it on google / bugbase / these forums.
Could these two issues be related - is hardware acceleration not working or something? Somehow I think it is, because the XP test machine is quite old, and tended to fall over with the game running in software mode in a Flash projector.
I tried swapping out the Air 3.3 runtime for the previous 3.2 I shipped with, and editing the XML desciption to make sure it was set to use that and, sure enough, the game worked as it did before. So there is definitely something up with the beta. I'm just glad I caught this problem before I shipped as going to save me thousands of emails of support!
So I guess my question is - is this a known issue? And if so, do you have any workarounds / or are Adobe working on a fix?

Hi Chris,
Thanks for the prompt response - I guess I should have tried the forums instead of the bugbase last time... It really was a support nightmare! Not least because I had to deal with the problem of saved games being wiped by over-zealous browsers on the backup Projector version I was supplying Mac customers with.
Fortunately the Mac Air 3.3 runtime works great.
Out of interest - there is still the difference in GPU scaling used between Mac and Windows though, which there always has been since it was introduced (is this a known issue btw?)
Which leads me to the 3.3 beta 2 - I tried it out last night, and while it corrected the blurry graphics (the scaling appeared nearest neighour again on XP), the audio suffered the same distortion.
In addition, I had several other XP / Vista / Win 7 users test out the build, and the user with XP SP3 also suffered the issue.
So I'm planning to ship the PC version with 3.1 as it worked well for the first release, and use 3.3 beta 1 for the Mac version. Unfortunately I've run out of time and need to get it out there!
I'd definitely be interested in getting into the pre-release program. I'll write you an email and send the builds of the game too.
Cheers,
Jasper

After latest update, screen sharing broken

Installed the iPhoto, Supplemental 10.7.3 update, and, iTUnes update on March 10. Since then, screen sharing to a headless Mac no longer works properly.
What happens is it runs, but, screens no longer update properly. For example, you can't scroll in Safari, UNLESS you resize the Safari window, it's really strange. Video doesn't play, it freezes, again, unless you resize the video player window.
This has happened on all 3 macs that were updated. All 3 are headless, no display attached. One is a OSX Server.
Anyone else with the latest updates screen sharing a headless Mac with this issue?

Z30 hanging on "Additional Updates" screen, do I have a dud?

After many hours being stuck on the "Software Updates" screen, things have finally moved onto the "Additional Updates" screen. I am connected via Wi-Fi and have not inserted my SIM.
It's been stuck here for 3 hours, is this normal or is my phone a dud?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Yes, maybe I was a bit hasty, but draining a fully charged battery whilst on Software Updates led me to believe that something was amiss. Never had any issues with the Z10 setup and was done in about 5 mins.
I've googled around and very few people have had this issue and there seems to be no definitive solution to the problem. Some have said you must be connected via Wi-Fi, which I am as I have taken the SIM out. Others have said you must be connect via USB to BB Link, which again left me stuck on Software Updates for 6 hours. I also could not reload the factory defaults via BB Link as the phone was still updating . . . chicken and egg!
If someone from BB could chime in here that would be great.

Creative Zen X-fi (with lan) white screen issues

?Hello everyone, So I've been having my zen x-fi for a few months and it has been working excellently...until yesterday when it suddently (after what might have been a lightly hit, I had it in my front pocket and bumped in lightly into some object)...well suddently the screen went white but kind of still something black there (see photo below) <a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" href="http://img40.imageshack.us/img40/666/dscf2249redigerad.jpg"]http://img40.imageshack.us/img40/666/dscf2249redigerad.jpg[/url] I have been looking into troubleshooting about this particular issue, but what is suggested there under the white screen-issue is to reset and update firmware, something I did already first thing after it happened. The thing is that other than the screen being a quaking mess, it seems to otherwise be in working condition, because when I turn it on and push the play button music will still play as before. it's just the screen that is the problem. Any ideas? Best wishes, Babba

Hello there, thank you for your welcome. That is sad info about my music player though, I liked it so much while it was still working. unfortunately im not within the warrant period so I will have to invest in a new one. thank you for your help though. I will look into which creative player is the best one within my price range

Yellow Screen Issue Can be Resolved

I have resolved my yellow screen issue and improved my display greatly by doing the following:
Settings>Brightness
Turn Auto Brightness to "Off"
Increase the the brightness by moving the slider to the right.
I had a first gen iPhone and when I saw the display on my 3G- my initial response was - This screen display must be defective. Now I know that the factory setting is just to low and my display is fine.
Message was edited by: lmiksch

So I've heard a bunch of things about how the yellow screen is supposed to be the way it is, which is fine, but does anyone have anything to say about how not all the screens are the same tint? My boyfriend and I both got iPhones yesterday, and each one has a slightly different tinting to it.
There are (at least) two versions of the firmware, with slightly different colors.

Screen Issue with HP G7000 laptop

Hi there,
I bought a second hand HP G7000 laptop preinstalled with Windows Vista Home Premium x86 a few days ago, the problem with it was that the screen wouldn't light up even when plugged the laptop was plugged in using the AC adapter which I also had to buy seperately as the original one was misplaced and only cost me £10 for a compatible one off the Internet, the screen wasn't shattered and showed no signs of wear and tear, I took it to my local PC repair shop for £40 in which the contacts behind the screen needed connecting back up and with a little soldering for some other parts of the repair, however when I tookit back to my place the screen lit up fine in which I decided to perform a factory restore to make it feel like it was brand new and that it belonged to me. After restoring the laptop successfully, I noticed that a lot of stuff was a little out-of-date and decided to update it to make it compliant with the latest security fixes as well as the latest bug fixes i.e. to upgrade to SP2 etc, however upon updating and turning on the laptop every so often the display kept going funny i.e. black and white and wouldn't display anything clearly in which I had to keep forcing the laptop to shut down with using the power button in which I don't like doing as this will corrupt the hard drive eventually, however upon researching this problem on the Internet I stumbled across this forum thread http://www.techsupportforum.com/forums/f108/hp-g7000-screen-issue-529809.html using Google describing a very similar problem to me, the problem not only seems to be with tilting the angle of the screen but also the surface in which the unit is placed down on, I've tried various surfaces including my USB fan cooler, glass and wood and all produce various results from time to time. So I guess the answer is to place the unit down on a flat surface that isn't shiny and screen not tilting when using the laptop? I thought the purpose of a laptop was to make computing mobile regardless of what surface you place the unit down on and what angle you have the screen at. Your feedback and suggestions would be much appreciated.
Kind regards,
RocknRollTim
P.S. I also suspect that the problem is related to interference and lighting conditions as well as heating conditions and the battery as the battery sometimes retains its charge whereas sometimes it doesn't and have to use the AC adapter when this happens, don't know whether flashing the BIOS has helped the battery to retain its charge though.
This question was solved.

Hello @RocknRollTim,
I understand that your notebook computer is experiencing an issue with the display screen as well as keeping a charge with the battery, and I would be happy to assist you in this matter!
To further diagnose the integrity of your computer's battery, I recommend following this document on Calibrating the Notebook Battery (Windows Vista). This should help re-synchronize the battery with your notebook.
Because the display intermittently stays on the screen when moved a certain angle, I believe the display panel cables are defective. According to the Maintenance and Service Guide for your computer, this part can be replaced with a camera (462455-001) or without (454932-001), and can be found from the multiple vendors below:

Should I get the iPod Touch? (Also a question about the screen issue)

Hi,
I recently purchased the 8GB iPod Nano, and now i'm considering to add a $100 and get the iPod Touch 8GB. Would you guys recommend it?
Another question I had was that I heard about the iPod Touch having some Screen Issues, and read somewhere that if the Box has a picture of Macy Gray then its Bad. But I personally think the Macy Gray image is for the 8GB, and the other artist is for the 16GB.
Is there a 100% definite way for me to find out if it has a good screen or not?
Thanks in Advance!
Saeid.

Ok, I recommend the iPod Touch. 8GB is fine, and totally worth the $$.
The screen issue has been fixed by a firmware update, so as long as you update to the latest firmware, you should be in the clear.
I have a 16GB macy Gray and it is working perfectly so far (1 week of ownership)
However, you mentioned using your iPod in the rain. If you do so, the Touch is not for you! I would not want to get water even near it, because the technology could be very very sensitive to water. It was raining here the other day (in Los Angeles) and I was so scared to use the touch that I took my 8GB 3gen Nano with me instead. And I was still scared to use that.
You will have to take the touch out and look at it if you are going to operate it properly.
The good news:
you can make playlists on the go! That means you can, while it is still dry, set a nice playlist without connecting to your computer. But, if the volume needs to be adjusted, there is a shortcut that would take just a bit of memorization and careful skill. In your pocket, you can double tap the home button, and then the volume, pause and track forward/backward "buttons" pop up. If you can memorize their position and hit them right, the Touch can be operated in your pocket. But make sure your hands are dry!
So it's up to you. I think quality wise, the Touch has had most of its bugs worked out. The only things that will come in the future are additional features.
Good luck and I hope you get it.

IPod Touch 5th Gen iOS 6 Updates Screen is Blank (White)

The indicator verifies that I have 15 Updates but my iPod Touch 5th Gen w/ iOS 6 just started showing a blank white screen for the updates screen.
I've tried powering off and back on, resetting (pushing both buttons for 10 seconds), syncing, transferring purchases, and the wifi reset trick, but none of these things makes any difference to the issue.
I saw thousands of posts in various forums that this has been affecting people for over a year. Someone must have found a fix by now that works. This is a new problem to me, but chances are the real fix will work if someone can share it. Any one know? Thanks!

Try the remaining items of:
- 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.
- Try another cable
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

Flash builder white screen issue

Hi All,
I have create one normal project.There is no issue but after run that project i got one issue that is White screen Issue.......i have updated flash player but cant fint that problem ....any one Tel me the reason.
Thanks
Prabu.a

After further investigation, we found out that we were defining a few of our namespace by referencing directly the packages of our custom component instead of creating a clean namespace as recommended by the flex documentation. Using the package definition works just fine when it is local but our component were located in a swc library.
We were doing this :
xmlns:foo="com.mCompany.controls.foo*"
instead of generating an xml manifest and basing our namespace on it
xmlns:foo="http://com.myCompany.controls/foo"
We think that flash builder was slowing down because each and every time we were loading up an mxml it had to rescan the said package.
