Vertical red and green lines on my screen

Today I was rendering a bass track in Protools, I do that a lot and always without problems, also today.
It worked fine and I saved the render. Then I had to go for a while and left my mac on, when I came back I touched my mouse
and bam! stuck! I work with two synced apple cinema screens, the left screen got vertical red and green lines and the right screen stayed black...
I am in a big worry because there is four weeks worth of editing on this computer. Does anyone know what I could do about this?

I suppose it's a graphic card failure. You'd better get new one.

Qosmio F30-117 - Display issues - red and green lines

Hi there,
I have a qosmio F30-117 and up to recently, I was delighted with everything about it.
Then, mid session, the graphics began to deteriorate, which a reboot fixed.
Then a few days later, it did it again and this time when I rebooted it came up with a corrupted display, lots of aa's all over the place then lines of red and green all over.
Managed to get in by selecting safe mode with networking and got a desktop although still with the red and green lines all over it.
Now its gotten worse still, when I boot up the laptop screen itself is blank, its getting something because it isnt totally black like it is when its powered off, but its blank.
As a check I connected an external monitor and managed to get in again to safe mode with networking, but its still very bad, and still has the red and green lines all over.
I started to have a look around on the good old www and there are numerous posters and articles with problems, and lots mentioning the red and green lines etc...
so Im not alone, but no-one seems to know exactly what it is.
Some have mentioned Toshiba acknowledging this as a problem and doing repairs even if out of warranty.
So, any ideas, any advice, and does anyone know if Tosh have indeed accepted the problem and offering any help??
Thanks in advance

Hi
I think it's a common problem in the Qosmio F30 models. After long term use, the soldering balls under the GPU chipset start to melt down because of the over heat and the bad soldering quality that was used with the F30 model that cannot resist high temperature. Now you have to replace the motherboard, since the GPU is build within the motherboard.
However, there is another two solution for this problem and cost less money amount:
1- do what is called a "heat reflow" for the VGA chipset: to do this you have to take the motherboard out and heat the VGA chipset on the motherboard with a heat gun or you can bake it in the oven for a few minutes at low temp, this will make the soldering balls melt and go back to there right position. However, you need to keep in mind that this solution is temporary and will last maybe for month then you have to do it again and again till you ruin the GPU and then the only solution will be to buy another motherboard. So I don't recommend that you do that at all, but if you don't want to spend a lot of money on a new motherboard this will help you to recover your data, even though there is more easier solution to do the recovery.
Anyways, you can go to youtube and search the term "VGA heat reflow " to see how people do it.
2- send your motherboard to a repairing service that can do what is called reballing: what they do is that they will replace the soldering balls under the VGA chipset with new ones that can resist high temp. and this solution is permanent and even in the future you don't have to worry that the same problem will happen again since the new soldering balls can take high temp change. I do recommend this solution even more than buying a motherboard, since the motherboard that you will get will generate the same problem after few years.
you can find this type of repair service online if you googled the term "VGA reball repair" or you can find it on ebay
If you decided to replace the motherboard I think you will not be able to find a new one, and in case you found one it will be more expensive than a new laptop, but still you can find used motherboard for your qosmio on ebay or online. so you need to do a search and find out what fits your budget or maybe it's better to buy a new laptop.
Sorry about your qosmio, and hope that my post will help you!

Vertical Purple and Green lines on start up!

Hi,
I was using Logic X (10.1) and all of a sudden my screen went totally grey and I could here a constant click on my headphones.
After about a minute my Mac restarted itself and on the startup screen displayed thick vertical purple and green lines.
Once it had finished loading up it then went on to a blank white screen and then stayed on this blank white.
I shut down my Mac the restarted it three times and have encountered the same problem every time.
Any help or advice as to what may have caused this and or how it could be fixed?
Thanks in advance.

How can I remove red and green lines from a footage?

I cannot remove red and green lines without removing the title graphics that I have in my footage. How can I solve the problem and keep the graphic there?

@Ann Benns
I will try to do that. Thank you!
@Bill Hunt
Well, the raw footage is an avi filmed with a handycam. This error occurred
the next day after I finished the editing in Adobe Premiere cs5. It might
be something wrong with the title graphics that I use, but still if there's
a solution I would like to find it out as this error occurred before.

Attempt to play video in timeline causes red and green lines in Canvas

Hi!
When I hit the spacebar in FCP's timeline to play, sometimes I get red and green lines in the Canvas (looks like some wierd color digital interference). If I then hit the spacebar again, the audio will play, but with the same red & green lines. If I then hit it a third time, my video will play fine.
What the heck? Any ideas? This only happens every once in a while.
Thanks for the input!
My specs:
G5 Dual 1.8 GHz processor
Version 10.3.9 OS
4GB Memory
QT version 7.0.2
not connected to the internet

To be sure you'll need to include some more details, what version of FCP, and your current sequence settings, but I think I could make an honest assessment, right now. Make a note of your sequence settings, then trash your preferences, but make sure that you close final cut, also once preferences are trashed you'll lose sequence settings, and window configurations if you haven't saved them. So be sure to back them up, before trashing preferences.
You can find preference by following these commands:
1.type shift command h - this opens up your home directory
2.open the Library folder //----SPECIAL NOTE Be very careful in this folder do not move or delete any folders in here.----\\
3.open the Preference folder //----SPECIAL NOTE Be very careful in this folder do not move or delete any folders in here.----\\
Now find and delete these 4 files:
1.com.apple.FinalCutPro.plist
Navigate to the Final Cut Pro User Data inside the Preference folder and delete the three remaining Final Cut Prefs Files They are as follows:
2.Final Cut Pro 5.0 Prefs //*This may be 3, or 6 depending on your FCP version.
3.Final Cut Pro Obj Cache
4.Final Cut Pro Prof Cache
Remember do not trash any folders period, nor move anything, delete on those 4 files, and remember once you delete them make sure you trash them from the drive, go to trash empty trash. You'll have to reconfigure any unsaved layout workspaces and system sequence settings.
This Clean system should be done once a year, but only if you notice FCP having problems.
Hope it helps.

Yellow triangle with "!", red and green lines

why is this showing up on parts of my clip?

this is the range check feature showing if you have legal luma levels (green check) or illegal levels (yellow !)
try searching the PDF manual with the term "range check" to get a greater understanding of the feature and how it can help you (as well as how to disable and enable it)

Removing red and green grammar error lines in Adobe reader?

How do i remove the green and red lines in Adobe Reader?
They are spelling and grammatical errors, and they appear on printed documents?
Is it from Microsoft word that i converted it from, as i turned off grammatical and spelling errors from word options, proofing etc.
I don't want them on my printed material, so what would i go about doing?
If someone could point me in the right direction then that would be great.
Thankyou.

The PDF document was created in microsoft word, also the parts that have the green or red wavy underlines, are imported from Powerpoint.
Is there a way to remove these red and green lines without having to edit the powerpoint parts eg instead of going into power point making the changes and then bringing them into word again.
So if they could be removed from the word document alone.
Thankyou.

Howdy carliosa,
If your iMac is not starting up normally you may need to do some checking to make sure things are working correctly. I would suggest starting with the steps in this article -
Resolve startup issues and perform disk maintenance with Disk Utility and fsck - Apple Support
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.

My MacPro 10.6.8 has a thin green line on the screen.

My MacPro is just over a year old now and I have a thin green line on the screen. I hooked it up to my TV and on the second window (the TV) the green line wasn't there. Whats the issue? How do I fix it?

From what you are saying, sounds like a line of pixels out on the display.
Did the TV use the same connector on the computer? If not, swap the display with the TV. If you still have the line, it is one of the items that you swapped across.
Have you tried connecting the display to another computer? If so, is the line still there?
What kind of display is it? Can you swap the data cable and try a different cable, could be a cable issue.
Any adapters in use? If so, try swapping those to rule them out as a problem.

Playbook displaying my photos:- washed-out, reds and greens look faded,

Hello x Im new here just got my Playbook
Can anyone help with this.
Two weeks ago I bought a Blackberry Playbook from Simply Electronics over the internet simplyelectronics.net. The website was in english money, union jack icons plus english phone number. I phoned customer services about an issue just to check the firm out, then went ahead with my purchase and received it in four working days.
I have since found out, like many other people who ordered from them, that Simply Electronics is in some other country - I do not know if it's China or U.S.A. I would never have known if I had not looked them up on the net for reviews. They seem to have changed their website now to American dollars.
That is not the essential problem though, this is:-
The Blackberry Playbook, though superb, slick and working fine in all ways, has a problem with displayment of colour photographs. The colour is washed out, particularly reds and greens. Photos which look vibrant on my Sony Xperia phone and on my computer, look very jaded on this tablet, although the resolution and clarity is superb. It's not just the saturation that is poor. There is a colour bias.
I am a photographer and I primarily got this tablet specifically for showing photos to people (taken with my Canon SLR camera and my Sony cameraphone). It is now gutting for me to see the vibrant reds coming up as a burnt orange or browney red. Grass looks washed out and not lush as it was in the photo.
I do believe there is a fault with this Playbook.
Do you know if this is a known problem or issue with the Blackberry Playbook or with Tablets in general. Do you know what I could do about it? Do you know how I could get in touch with Blackberry to tell them about it.
Returning it to SimplyElectronics if they are in another country would be expensive and I may just get another Playbook with the same or a different fault - too much hassle.
I do not know what my best course of action would be. Can you help.
The fact I got the Blackberry Playbook for £204 postage free, is some consolation as it's a good item with no other flaws, but when I see my photos on the screen, the colour problem seems too big a deviation from normal to be satisfied with it.
What can you advise. Is this colour wash-out a common thing. How do I contact Blackberry?
Carolyn

I don't know have this issue with pictures and images. The color rendition is superb. It is not a general fault of the Playbook.. there could be some issue with the one you have.
First, try a reset of the Playbook. Press and hold the Power key, up and down volume (-/+) all three buttons simultaneously, for about 10-12 seconds. You should the red LED blink and that should allow a reset of the PlayBook and to power up. Afterwards, do the images appear any better?

BUG: Vertical Red/blue/green on right during video transitions (SOLVED)

I was getting this phantom vertical bar on the right side of the video, and it took me 2 hours to figure out what was causing it. The video size of the sequence was 595x222 (it's for a flash element on a website); This glitch occured across all media types at this resolution: jpegs, mov, whatever. During the cross-dissolve (or any transition) a red vertical var would appear and would cycle colors to red and green during the transition. It showed up in the final exported render as well.
THE SOLUTION: I changed the width by 1px. That's it. I have no idea why that worked, but it fixed it– no more random color bar. It may have something to do with the width being an even vs odd number or not, or the aspect ratio of the height and width. Anyway, I hope this helps someone, and Adobe- put this on your to-do list.

Thank you for posting your fix.
Appreciated,
Hunt

Why do I have green lines across the screen

This morning hubby turned on iPad and it has green lines through the screen. It is also circling the apps. Could this be a pixel problem.

There is no need to bang or drop the iPad!! Read this solution. Read the whole thing.
If your iPad is still under warranty, I have heard that Apple will simply exchange it for you. That is not necessarily an ideal option, as many people do not want to have to bother with transfering all of their files to a brand new device.
My problem, however, was that my iPad was no longer under warranty when this occurred. I was so sad, because the warranty is supposed to be for a year. My mother bought it for me as a gift last Christmas, so it had not even been out of the box for a whole year when this happened. Nevertheless, since my mother bought it in October, the warranty had *just* expired, since they go technically by the purchase date.
Apple offered to fix it for me for $300!!!! A ridiculous price for a loose wire inside. I simply am not in a position to spend that kind of money, and if I was, why not get a new device at that price (NON-Apple!). I was very upset, but I didn't give up on it. I scoured the Internet for an affordable solution, I found one, and it worked!!
The problem is caused by a loose cable on the inside, simple as that (can you imagine they ask $300 for the fix!! After all I have invested in the App store, and buying the Apple keyboard to boot!!!).
The fix I found is simple, I did it, and it worked for me. It is the same repair a professional would do in this situation.
The following video demonstrates how to open your iPad. Warning! This is a do-at-your-own-risk solution! But I found it quite easy. Watch the video (which actually demonstrates the entire process of replacing the screen),
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MG5HhdeP_VY
Obviously, for our issue, you will not remove your screen. Simply disconnect the two cables as shown in the video, and reconnect them!! Simple as that! Then just reassemble it according to the video.
I purchased the prying tool and screw driver and latches from sw-box.com -- for under $20. I think it comes from Hong Kong, but it only took 8 days to get to me in TX, USA.
I hope this helps someone else.

My new iPhone 5 has black and white lines on the screen. It's not been damaged. I've tried turning it off but this does not solve the problem? Please help.

My new iPhone 5 has black and white lines on the screen. It's not been damaged. I've tried turning it off but this does not solve the problem? Please help. I can't find my answer on the Internet.

By far the most common problem hardware-wise seems to be scuffs on the aluminium. Yours is the first report of a faulty screen I've seen.
If you use the same Apple ID on both devices it'll sync whatever you want it to - music/apps/photos/messages/etc.
I've just switched from a Galaxy S3 to iPhone 5 (having already owned an iPad for a while) so I'm in a similar position!

I have a problem with my blackberry 9360, I bought it last 2months, and now when I use video camera or camera I saw a red and blue line. Can someone help me with this issue?
