Xorg graphics are all messed up and glitchy (screenshots) How to fix?

I've set up a new system, but the graphics are super glitchy!
Here's what gdm (gnome) looks like when i enter run level 5 with an existing xorg.conf file:
and here's what it looks like without xorg.conf so settings are automatic:
With the first setup (xorg.conf included) there's no way to log in.
Without xorg.conf, you can see the loging windows and log in, and when you get to the desktop, the background remains all messed up just like at the login screen.
Any ideas what might be wrong? i'll be right back to post my xorg.conf

Have read posts re the iOS 6.1 mess up... but how do I fix this? It says 6.1.1 is there to correct this problem but it is not on iTunes to download. I cannot updte apps, download apps and have had to remove apps because they keep crashing! Very angry!

I cannot update apps, download apps and have had to remove apps because they keep crashing!
I have turned off, removed apps, tried to reinstall them. iTunes can't download them either, the updates for them won't work.
Never had problems with iPhones until now and this has really annoyed me... Apps have cost me money have had to go because they won't function
the error messages say that data cannot be downloaded at this time and it is ot because I do not have free space because I have removed items to make sure there is room!

How can I keep my Outlook color categories straight? Everytime I restart my computer the categories are all messed up!

I am running iCloud on my Windows 7 PC with Outlook 2007 with my new iPhone 4S. Actually all things sync just fine however all the categories of my appointments in my Calendar in Outlook change color when I restart my computer. I have about 15 categories and I use all things in Outlook first and then allow the sync to put it on my phone. I need my categories to stay the same color and stop changing everytime I open Outlook!
The odd thing is that when I click the appointment in my calendar and open it up the category color is correct but I have to have the category menu open, deselect it then reselect it and it will change back until I restart my computer again. Argh. I use these for business so this is a huge headache for me to deal with!
Solutions? Please, Apple fix this!!!

Under Utilities >> Disk Utilities, you can search the drive for permission errors and then repair then (the button below search).

How do I fix my Hard Drive? The permissions are all messed up.

Hi,
I have been trying for a little while now to do a time machine backup to a GoFlex Home external Hard Drive that I bought from Best Buy. Time Machine fully completed the backup one time but then it started to tell me that it was unable to use that disk anymore and that it was going to start another backup to be secure. Somehow in the process of trying to figure it out and finally mount the drive I deleted the full backup from the external hard drive and now my computer is acting up. All of a sudden it was like my Hard Drive was only acting as the start-up disk version rather than my actual hard drive. I don't know what to do, but I can't lose all of my files. I have already had to restart my computer from safe mode 2 times in the last few weeks and the last time I thought it was a goner. Should I attempt to repair the permissions while rebooting in safe mode or is there anything else I can do?

I have just bought a MacBook Pro..13".. the graphics are all screwwed up. I can't get it to come around with the onboard adjustments. which and how to I install new Graphic INTeL 4000 drivers ?????

Well no one out there. I hate to have to take this 13" Mac Book Pro back , get my money back . Seems I'll have to. This is about the third time I have asked for help from Mac (APPLE) and I never hear back from them..

Does that problem happen with some applications? If so, the problem is that you are using applications that are not designed for Retina display. The developer should have done that months ago.
If that's your problem, first check that your applications are updated. If you want to make them look better, you can decrease resolution in System Preferences > Displays, but do not worry, because this does not mean that your MacBook Pro is damaged.
However, if you cannot use your Mac because the GPU is not working correctly, you have to return it and get another one

I've bought and downloaded music from itunes, but the ends of almost all my songs are cut off and will not play, how can I fix this? Most of the music cuts off abouthalf way through the song, then it skips to the next one. Itunes also says I have not purchased the album though it is listed under my purchased albums. It's incrediabley frustrating, please help.

The font i used in my KEYNOTE presentation is not available when you upload it to the cloud. So, now my text boxes are all messed up. How can I select ALL font boxes of presentation and change (at least) the font style?

I have a large presentation that I need to access from the cloud THIS SATURDAY. Now, after uploading from my iMac to Cloud, the font is all messed up because the font I selected on my mac is NOT available on the Keynote Cloud....so capitalization is wrong, inconsistent, etc.
Is there a quick way to select all text and change the style? Help..I am running out of time!

What's the URL of the page?
In the mean time clear the cache and reload the page.

Permissions are all messed up in 10.9

I installed Mavericks 10.9 on my 2008 Mac Pro desktop a couple of months ago. Then the monitors (2 of them) developed odd patterns. Apple Care (AC) tried to help me start 10.9 in Safe Mode, but when the progress bar finished, the computer shut itself off. We could never start in Safe Mode. Then AC diagnosed a hardware problem and recommended an Apple repair shop near me. The the video card was bad and they replaced it. But when they got things running, the permissions were very screwed up. They spent a lot of time repairing them (I don't know how), and then they upgraded the MacHD from a 1.5T Seagate to a 2T Western Digital and cloned the old MacHD to the new 2T drive. I took the machine home and still had permission problems and other problems. Adobe Acrobat Pro would not print PDF files, which I fixed with a suggestion from the Apple Forum. Then Photoshop CS4 gave me a "License Expired" message (Error code 150:30). I fixed that from the Forum (Adobe Community > Downloading, Installing, Setting Up > Discussions: Error code 150:30), with a fix that required a little entry in Terminal ($ sudo sh install_fnp.sh). That allowed me to open Photoshop, but when I turned Photoshop off and restarted it I got the "License Expired" message again.
On the advice of Apple personnel in the Apple Store in Spokane, I unstalled Photoshop CS4 and reinstalled it from the CS4 Suite DVDs, installing just PS with all the supporting apps that the installation automatically chose. Then when I started PS, I got an error "Don't have adequate permission access" or something like that that has been addressed in the Forums. From the Forums, I followed the suggestion of adding "username(me)" to the permissions window of the Info panel of the MacHD and choosing "Apply to enclosed items". That got rid of the "Don't have adequate permission access" error, but I got back the "License Expired" error again and PS wouldn't open. When I tried the "sudo sh instyall_fnp.sh" fix again, I discovered that I couldn't log in to Terminal:
Last login: Thu Feb 20 18:27:35 on console
login(12166,0x7fff7cf59310) malloc: *** error for object 0x7fe65b500180: pointer being freed was not allocated
*** set a breakpoint in malloc_error_break to debug
[Process completed]
Meanwhile, using Disc Utility and "Verify Permissions" I see that my Permissions are still totally messed up. So I don't know what to do now.
I also have a Macbook Air. I see that in "Disk Utility > Verify Disk Permissions", the Permissions are also messed up on my Macbook Air, on which I installed 10.9 recently, but it seems to be working ok, so I have just left it alone.
I'm the Administrator and only User on this system. The Permissions remain a huge mystery to me. What is the difference between "Administrator", "System", and "Username(me)"? Should all these be present, with "Read & Write" access? And how do you fix such global Permissions problems?
Can anyone help?
Thanks.

You may need to rebuild permissions on your user account. To do this,boot to your Recovery partition (holding down the Command and R keys while booting) and open Terminal from the Utilities menu. In Terminal, type: ‘resetpassword’ (without the ’s), hit return, and select the admin user. You are not going to reset your password. Click on the icon for your Macs hard drive at the top. From the drop down below it select the user account which is having issues. At the bottom of the window, you'll see an area labeled Restore Home Directory Permissions and ACLs. Click the reset button there. The process takes a few minutes. When complete, restart.

When I export an indesign document the graphics are missing from the eps file.

When I export an indesign document the graphics are missing from the eps file.

The why it isn't working can be a number of reasons. While I never have exported an EPS out of ID before, I just tried it and it worked fine.
What "graphics" are missing? I used bitmaps, native drawn ID vector, lines and a placed EPS file. Came into AI as an opened EPS fine.
Links up to date? For items not hitting the EPS, are they on a layer set to non-printing?
In the export dialog,General tab, PostScript Level 3? Data format set to ASCII? On the Advanced tab, Send Data set to All? OPI off?

IPhoto 11 events' dates are all messed up

Hi, my iPhoto 11 events' dates are all messed up.
I tried a solution that I found in the forum in which one should delete file com.apple.iPhoto but I don't have the said file.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance!

Yes you do. In Lion and Mountain Lion the Library folder is now invisible. To make it permanently visible enter the following in the Terminal application window: chflags nohidden ~/Library and hit the Enter button - 10.7: Un-hide the User Library folder.
You can then find and delete the necessary preference file.
