STB Clock Display Freezes

I have two Motorola FiOS Set Top Boxes, a standard definition model and a HD model. The FiOS service has been operational since 2009 without any problems. On 03/16/12, I noticed that the standard STB clock was frozen at 03:02 on a Thursday morning.
Since then I have been experiencing the same frozen clock display on both the standard definition and HD STBs when the STBs are turned off and they both display the same time. The time display does not advance but the colon between the hours and minutes blinks.
I always turn off the STB when I am done watching the FiOS TV. The frozen clock display always occurs on a Wednesday or Thursday morning between the hours of 03:00 and 05:00 EDT.
Currently my STB clock displays are frozen at 04:54 on Thursday, 07/12/12.
Verizon technicians replaced the standard definition STB and the fiber NIU. Neither replacement had any affect on the problem. I believe Verizon does not have a clue what is causing this problem.
I have been told by Verizon technical support this problem might be caused by the Emergency Alert Test that is typically performed during the early morning hours but this is speculation and has not been proved.
I suspect there are many other people (I can't believe I am the only one experiencing this problem) with the same problem but because they do not turn off the STB or do not pay attention to the display, they do not report the problem.

Since we haven't heard back from you or have received a form submission on your private support thread, it appears assistance is no longer required. If you need any future help with your Verizon service, please make a post here on the forums so we can assist.

Display freeze, hang up forever

recently I found my T61 display freeze(hang up) while Internet Explorer and Acroba Professional running. I upgraded my BIOS and most of the drivers I found at Lenovo site, but the problem is still there. Does someone has a sloution? My warrant expired this May.
My system is CPU Intel T9300 2.5GHz, 4G memory, Quadro NVS 140M, Vista 32bits Service Pack 1

Then if it is OK, ask him to do the target disk mode for you. Let him troubleshoot it for you. While migration from PowerPC to Intel Macs may have trouble your G5 to G4 transfer as suggested should not cause a problem.
It may also need a new clock battery if the machine is older than 4 years. Any Mac that is older than 4 years may need it.
The repair issue which the program covers may affect the ability of Target Mode to work, and so may a clock battery issue do the same.

Macbook pro 15" mid 2009 model display "freeze", please help!!!

I have a Macbook pro 15" mid 2009 model which all of a sudden startet "freezing" everytime i restart it, opens spesific programs, etc, and it is really starting to bug me! Sometimes it takes me 15 minutes to start the computer, and then freezes for another 5 minutes when i try to start i.e word.
I currently have the Mac OS X 10.6.8 (snow leopard).
Could this be fixed by a software update of some sort? If not, how can i fix it (if possible at all)?
Thanks!

You have provided some good basic information, but I'll need more in order to address our question.
1. When did you notice this problem? Relatively recently, or have you been having this problem for a while?
2. Can you correlate the problem with the installation of new software? Which software?
3. How much RAM do you have? If it's 2gb, that's probably not enough - 4gb is ideal for your unit.
4. Do you update your MBP with software update? Have you updated your browser and plugins?
5. Have you cleaned your MBP? Recently, an increasing amount of users have seen improvement by getting dust from your unit.
6. What programs cause you to freeze, or this happen with all applications? What happens when you notice the freeze? Do you see a spinning wheel? Does the display freeze? Be as specfic as possible.
I realize this is a detailed homework assignment, but answer as completely as you can. This is an answer to your issue - it's just a matter of narrowing things down.

Nokia 5310 - Display freeze problem

Hi,
I got a new Nokia 5310 last week and its doing great and i like it a lot, except for the following problem..
Problem description:
I find the phone display freezed and become grey and stopped responding to any keys..
this happened first time (on day two) with low battery and then started observing it frequently now (once in two days), when the phone is left with screen saver..,
at this state, when a call is made to phone, caller can hear the phone is ringing, but the phone is still dead..,
the only way to correct this is, remove the battery and reboot the phone.,
Query:
before going to nokia care centre, will this be a firmware bug (based on reported problems) or hardware bug(specific to my handset)??
thanks in advance for the help.
regards
deva

please check this version is available version 3.63 if not u need to update.any body has any suggestion for this issue.

Watching a Film: Display Freezes randomly.

Hello,
I have the Problem, that everytime I watch a film in fullscreen sometimes my Display freezes (Sound continues). When I move the mouse, the film continues.
This could happen after 5 or 7 minuntes and then after 10 or 3 minutes again.
I don't know where this can come from. I turned off all energy saving-options / screensavers. I Use OSX Mavericks and iTunes 11.1.3 (8) on my iMac mid 2010.
I would appreciate any help,
thanks

Is this what you are constantly seeing? The grey bars at the top and the bottom with the controls?
BTW, I see autocorrect turned "volume" into "Blume" in my response to you, but I guess you figured it out.
I just don't understand why you are even seeing the battery icon. It doesn't make sense. Do you see it in portrait and in landscape and I just now though of this .... Are you seeing this behavior in the built in Videos App or some third party app? Do you see it while streaming a video or with downloaded videos ...or both?
But like I said, you shouldn't see it anywhere at all.

Display freezes at boot until screen moved

March 2010 Macbook Pro 15 - display freezes at boot from cold.
First image is dark purple, this lightens to patchy grey with vertical lines.
Move the screen and the display changes to account log in screen, but track pointer is frozen and screen gamma rises until display is whiteout with vertical lines.
Freeze and whiteout can last up to 90 seconds now, freeing for a fresh display each time screen is moved then freezing again.
Problem getting worse - lasts longer and now occurs on wake as well as boot.
Have updated everything, checked for malware, cleaned all app content, run disk utility/ repair, hardware check, reset permissions, reset PRAM, reset gamma, reset SMC - not helped. No history of damage!
Took to Apple - they replaced logic board and graphic card - problem not fixed.
Any advice to give me to give them when I go back to the bar?
Thanks

1. Start up in Safe Mode.(shift key at startup)
a. Drag the Fonts folder from the Mac OS 9 System Folder (not the Mac OS X System folder) to the desktop.
b. Drag the Fonts folder from ~/Library/Fonts to the desktop.
b. Restart the computer in Mac OS X.
c. If this solves the problem....you have a corrupt font in one of the above font folders
2. Remove incompatible third-party startup items.
a. Start up in Safe Mode.(shift at startup)
b. Open the Mac OS X hard disk.
c. Drag third-party items out of ....
/Library/StartupItems .......
/System/Library/StartupItems ... Place them on the desktop .... If you're unsure whether an item is a third-party item or an Apple-installed item, don't move it.
d.Restart the computer.
Note.. If this resolves the issue, add the Startup Items one at a time until the symptom occurs again. That way you'll know which one is incompatible. Repeat these steps and remove the incompatible item.

Mac pro display freezes need help.

My mac display freezes after a few seconds of turning on. Ive had to unplug or turn off to turn it on again. Now, it just wont do anything after I enter password. It just freezes. The screen is also very hot.

Did you follow this procedure exactly...
Shut down the computer.
Unplug the computer's power cord.
Wait fifteen seconds.
Attach the computer's power cord.
Wait five seconds, then press the power button to turn on the computer.
...this will reset the SMC (System Management Controller).

Display Freeze

I have a K7T Turbo ver.3 mobo MSI 6330 Lite which is run off a 250W PSU. (1.3 AMD / 512sd ram)
Ive just installed an FX5200 and i seem to be getting display freeze when gaming but has happened in windows. The card doesn't seem to be getting very hot, ive updated the bios (v3.6) and Via Hyperion drives but it hasn't rectified the fault.
My last guess is possible psu problem, but if thats the case, would it happen as intermittantly as it does??
Any advice greatly received
Thanks

davejubbly,
Without the Video Card you should have a Minimum of a 300W Power Supply, you do not even have that and you are adding a Vid Card that pulls another 75 watts!!!
Go get a good brand name (Like Antec Truepower) power supply with around a 400W or better Rating.
Take Care,
Richard

Display freezing

My Macbook Pro was purchased in Aug.'06. Beginning last year it would run very hot and freeze. It used to freeze when trying to do something "complicated." For example, I would have Firefox, Adium and Photoshop open and be painting in Photoshop when a message came in and Growl would need to show up and I'd get the pinwheel of doom and the computer would freeze. Lately, the display freezes for no reason. It freezes during start up, during menu animations, etc. Why is this happening? Is it dirty? Old? Is something not working? Has running hot for almost 4 years busted my vid card? Thanks for any info!

Welcome to Apple Discussions!
Like Templeton said, it could be nearly anything. A good place to start might be to run the extended version of the Apple Hardware test and see if you get any error codes that might indicate what the problem is.
Are you still using the original hard drive? Notebook drives have an average useful life of 3-5 years, and if yours is the original, it would be 4 years old by now. Here is a utility that can check out the physical health of your hard drive:
http://www.versiontracker.com/dyn/moreinfo/macosx/32454
You can download the demo and run it several times for free. It is more critical than Disk Utility--some say too critical--but it could give you early warning of disk failure.
How full is your hard drive? If you are running low on free space, this could be a contributing factor.
How much RAM do you have? Is it all recognized? Did you ever install the maximum RAM you could? Check in Activity Monitor to see how your RAM is being used, and if you have a lot of pages out or swap used.
Also, consider reinstalling the OS in case it might be a contributing factor. Be sure to make a good backup first.
These are only a few possibilities, but maybe a place to start.
Good luck!

IPod clock display

So I'm using my ipod with the accurian ipod alarm clock and the only problem with it is that the ipod clock display is too small to actually be useful. Does anyone know of any plugins that would give a larger clock display?

- Reset the iPOd. Nothing will be lost.
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at

Display freezing frequenly

Hi,
I rebooted my pc several days ago. I installed new OS Windows 7 ultimate instead if Windows 7 Home Basic. I faced many problems like downloading drivers. I downloaded drivers but my display freezes frequenly all the time and shows message of display driver stopped and recovered. What is that and I cannot understand what to do?
Expecting anwer as soon as possible...

@vishwa_1996 ,
Hello and thank you so much for freezing. So what it sounds like has happened is that when you reloaded your system with a new OS. When you installed the drivers you may have miss installed the Chipset driver.
What you are going to want to do is go and boot your system into safe mode.
Entering Safe Mode (Windows 7)
Once you are in safe mode you will want to remove all the drivers for your system one at a time and if you have to reboot between each removal make sure you are booting back into safe mode.
Now that the you have got all drivers removed then you are going to boot back into normal windows mode.
Start installing all your drivers one at a time making sure you start with the CHIPSET driver.
You will want to download your drivers and software from here.

Songs skipping & display freezing with speakers

I've had my 3rd gen nano for 6 months now, and used it fine, no problems. Last week it froze completely and had to be re-set. It now seems to work OK when listening with headphones, but as soon as I dock onto my JBL speakers the display freezes (the track plays but the song duration etc freezes) and numerous songs will only play a few seconds before skipping to the next one.
I've tried re-setting and re-synching but that hasn't helped.
I've always used my nano on the same speakers without problem, so just don't understand!
Does anyone have a fix or should I send it for warranty service??

For the album art, do the songs have album art in iTunes?
Also, try these in this order for the skipping...

VI display freezing up but Data Logging continues

I am running the Labview Web server on a Win 98 platform and displaying some VI's in real time. Often the display freezes both on the website and on the PC terminal but the data logging continues. What can I do to ensure the graphics are continuously being updated online? Yes I have turned off logging in the web server settings.
Your comments/ suggestions are appreciated!

If the display looks OK when not being activly viewed from the web. You may be pushing the machine to hard.
1)reduce the frequecy of updates
2)Make FP smaller.
3) Stream line app
4) Get faster machine.

IPhone clock display

I had to reload software to correct a problem with my 3G IPhone. Ever since, the clock display on the welcome screen, prior to sliding to unlock, has a small promotional message which changes directly underneath the time. Not a big deal, but I would like to remove it. It currently says, "The Florentine Collection". I have no idea what that means. Could someone help me?
Thanks,
Tony

So, it's not jailbroken? Did someone sell it or give it to you or did you buy it new? Restoring it would not have jailbroken it. You would/should know if it was JB, as it is a manual, multi-step process and must be initiated by the user.
Can you post an image or link to the screen. You can take a screenshot of any screen by pressing and holding the home button and then pressing and releasing the sleep button. The screen will blink and the image will be in your camera roll.
