Touchsmart 7320 black patches at bottom of screen

When PC has been on for a few minutes a dark patch appears at the bottom left towards the middle of the screen. A while later this extends across to the left bottom corner. It clears only if I reboot or change user and go back in. It has been suggested that the LEDs are failing.

  • Vertical black stripes at bottom of screen

    After updating to OSX 10.6.8 I have noticed that my MBP 2.5 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo has vertical black stripes at the bottom of the screen when I start it up.  I cna still use it, but the stripes are very distracting.  I thought it was a hardware issue (like my screen is failing).  But the solution suggests that it is a software problem. 
    The solution is to retart the computer after its initial bootup.  When it restarts the black stripes are completely absent and the computer runs for long periods of time (like for days) with no problem at all, even when it goes to sleep and then wakes back up.
    Anyone else have this issue?

  • 2008 Pro has flashes of black bar at bottom of screen

    I'm getting flash of a black bar the full width of screen and height of dock at the very bottom of the screen.
    It flashes quickly twice about every 10 seconds.
    I just got the box last night.
    It has an 8800GT card.
    Didn't notice it last night, but left in on all night to format a hard drive with multiple passes.
    I've rebooted and the condition persists.

    Think I have a clue. I have two monitors connected to the 8800GT.
    I had the card set to 'mirror mode' and I had my 2nd monitor turned off as I was attempting to clone my main hard drive, no need to burn the electricity.
    When I turned on the 2nd monitor, the menu bar appeared 1/4 way down the screen, so the hole screen was pushed down by 1/4 and there was some garbage at the top of the screen.
    I took it out of mirror mode with both monitors turned on, and the problem went away (I may have also rebooted).
    Some driver issue with 8800GT.

  • Ipad mini dispay black line on bottom of screen

    ipad mini has blacyk lines on bottom of the screen

    Try to reset it. Hold down the sleep and home keys for about 20 seconds. When you see the silver apple, let go and let it reboot and see if that helps. Regardless you should make an appointment at your local apple store and have them check it out, especially if it's still under warranty.

  • Black patch on my screen

    Hey guys, i just noticed there's a black patch on my screen. Bottom right has bigger patch and its obvious on the grey loading screen or any bright backgrounds. Is it something i should worry about be it dirt or burnt? Im using Macbook White Unibody late 2009 model by the way. Thanks.

    Hi..
    I too just noticed a spot on the right hand corner of my screen. The spot is as tiny has the tip of a .5mm pen..:P
    But yeah, I had a word with the apple store who told it may be a case of pixel damage. I'm taking my mac in next week, you might wanna talk to your local apple store about this..Better safe than sorry i guess..Cheers ..:)

  • Nokia Lumia 720 screen has black patches within on...

    Hi,
    There is a major concern in the case of my Nokia purchase with respect to the below issues
    1) Quality of product
    I bought my Nokia Lumia 720 from an online retailer and in a week, I discovered there is a black area on the screen which became very obvious in the white backgorund (I couldn't notice it earlier because Windows mainscreen uses colored tiles on black background). Please see the picture attached.
    Just in a week ? Or maybe it's a manufacturing defect
    2)  Quality of Customer service level and support
    I reported this immediately to the Nokia Customer care through an email and they asked me to take to the customer care centre. I wrote them stating my concerns and if I can get a replacement. They didn't discuss it and just asked me to visit the Nokia Care.
    Having submitted it at a service centre in Bangalore, India, they were clueless about the issue as it was their first experience with Nokia Lumia 720.
    They concluded that the battery has bulged and they need to further investigate. And they tried to put blame on me assuming I might have put the device in water, over charged it or if I fiddled with the battery
    I've not done any of the above and I told them, for users the battery is not removable
    They argued that it is possible to remove because they could remove. I told them, fine but I haven't
    They informed me they'll update me.
    Only after I enquired two days later (they haven't bothered to contact me), they have sent the device to the headquarters in Delhi and will take 10 days minimum. And I'll have to pay for repair
    Pay for the repair ?
    What I can't take it is they told there would be an amount charged for the repair.
    3) Fairness of treatment / Customer satisfaction
    It's been one week since I purchased the mobile, I'd sent out my first email bringing up this issue. I've paid full money to purchase this. I've already informed that I have not taken my device near water or over charged it or dropped it. It has been a very normal usage.
    I've co-operated in every possible way. And if the device is found damaged in a week, shouldn't it be replaced ?
    I had raised the same concerns via email but I've stopped getting any response from email specialists at nokia care after an initial reply.
    I'm worried because there is a similar description of the issue in the following video and the person got an immediate replacement
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pYsK0c-wXvI
    Since I bought it from an online retailer, I had no option but to visit the Nokia Care.
    I'm feeling like a fool as I purchased a Nokia in 2013 much against the popular opinion of getting a Samsung or an Apple.
    Will I get a replacement ?

    Black Patch on Nokia Lumia 720.jpg ‏876 KB

    Hi 
    I got a Nokia 720 on contract and within a week the phone went into a reset then went blank - dead. It was replaced and agin in one day it went blank - dead.
    Also within a week all the data had been used up and no idea why. Fortunately virgin replenished the data limits so this must have happened before.
    So far I am thingking it is a heap of junk.
    Any Ideas?

  • Screen Sharing display of Finder app lags & black patches

    I'm trying to share the screen of a headless Mac Mini with a Retina MBP over ethernet (via thunderbolt display and time capsule) using the built in screen sharing app, and my fourth generation iPad over wifi using a VNC app. My problems are as follows:
    - intermittent black patches over the screen which I have drag a window over, or move a mouse over, to make disappear. This only happens on the Retina MBP, and doesn't happen on the iPad. This is considered solved in another thread, but the solution was to update Apple Remote Desktop which I do not have installed.
    - On both Retina MBP and iPad, the outputted display does not update when I make a change in the Finder application. E.g. say I create a new folder. I will not see the folder I have created until I drag the window elsewhere.
    This problem is the same regardless of the display quality (full or adaptive), or the resolution.
    I appreciate any help.

  • Getting flicker at top and bottom of screen - should I crop or zoom in?

    Hi all, this is related to another thread I have here but I wanted to ask specifically...what is better...cropping or zooming?
    I have just finished editing a long production in 16:9 and have been monitoring the edit process on a 16:9 television.
    When the finished product is watched on the 16:9 tv, there is no flicker evidentat either the top or bottom of the screen.
    When watched on a 4:3 television in letterbox mode, naturally the top and bottom edges are exposed and this presents some flicker at the top and bottom extremeties on some shots.
    I can get rid of this flicker on the edges without re-editing time-consuming scenes by either zooming in a fraction or cropping the finished video top and bottom by a factor of 4 using the motion settings.
    I have monitored the cropping method on the 16:9 screen and you cannot see it until it is cropped by a factor of 5, and of course on the 4:3 screen the cropping method will only mean there is slightly more black top and bottom on the letterbox effect.
    I guess zooming in to get rid of the flickering will mean the quality of the picture degrades a little so cropping would probably be best.
    Is this your opinion as weel?
    Thanks in advance.

    I guess zooming in to get rid of the flickering will mean the quality of the picture degrades a little...
    Yes, any picture re-sizing degrades the original.
    ... so cropping would probably be best.
    Yes. To avoid losing anything, you could always only crop the shots from the camera that has the flicker (might take a while).

  • Imac time machine obscured by black patch

    When I use time machine everything appears to work correctly but most of the screen is obscured by a black patch. I attach a photo (taken with ipad) of the screen. I have tried shutting down and restarting but to no avail. I have no other problems with my imac.

    If you have an external display connected, try disconnecting the external display and then use TM. I have a similar issue when using an HP external display, I was never able to locate a fix other than disconnecting the HP display.

  • How do I get Javascript to work? It is enabled in options but nothing happens when I select something that begins "javascript" on the status bar at the bottom of screen.

    When I tried to download a file from the Canon U.S.A, I clicked on the "I agree - begin download" button and nothing happened. The information in the status bar at bottom of screen, when the mouse cursor is over the download button is "javascript:downloadFile()". I got following from the error console -
    Error: The stylesheet http://www.usa.canon.com/wsss/GeneratedPages/wsss_xsl/global.css was not loaded because its MIME type, "text/html", is not "text/css".
    Source File: http://www.usa.canon.com/cusa/support/consumer/printers_multifunction/i_series/i950_series?selectedName=DriversAndSoftware
    There were also many warnings about parsing of commands.
    This sort of thing seems to happens whenever whenever javascript is involved.

    I checked out the "Unable to download or save files" section. The only thing that seemed applicable was the "Reset download actions" section. I renamed the mimeTypes.rdf file to mimeTypes.rdf.old but it didn't seem to have any effect on downloading the file I wanted. There was still no response when I asked for the download.
    I have noticed another problem that occurs when I try to download this file. I exit Firefox, then try to restart it. But nothing happens. I have discovered that in the Task Manager that the Firefox process is still running. When I end the Firefox process in the Task Manager, I am then able to restart Firefox.
    By the way, I am able to download the file using Internet Explorer without difficulty.

  • I have lost sound on my iPad in apps unless I use headphones ,does anyone know how to get sound back without them .I have used the mute volume on the bar at bottom of screen and the slider volume control there only shows when headphones are plugged in !

    I have lost sound on my iPad in apps unless I use headphones ,does anyone know how to get sound back without them .I have used the mute volume on the bar at bottom of screen and the slider volume control there only shows when headphones are plugged in !
    I also tried resetting settings all to no avail ...I looked up some advice and watched utube video advice on how to fix without success..
    The volume control button on side does not work ,I got the iPad last August and wonder if it is a fault that means I must return it for replacement from where it was purchased ?

    The Retrospect you used way back when is no longer around. The company was sold and that company produced a new version of Retrospect - Retrospect 8.x
    So, as you've been told, you would have to be running a Tiger system with an old version of Retrospect software (5.x or 6.x - you would need to know) assuming you can find the software.
    As best I can remember you cannot extract files from a Retrospect backup except using the software since Retrospect did not normally make a file by file backup rather it created an archive of the files in the backup. I'm assuming that the EMC/Retrospect people have told you that old Retrospect backups are not accessible by Retrospect 8.x?
