Video plays with only a green and purple screen. PLEASE HELP
I rented a movie from the store, but when I pushed play, I only see a purple and green screen with lines that flash. I can hear audio, but can't see anything. It doesn't help to play the video in Quick Time either. I get the same problem. I am running windows XP. Please help!
+I only see a purple and green screen with lines that flash.+
With those symptoms, the first thing I'd try is the "Disable Direct3D acceleration in QuickTime" section from the following document:
Troubleshooting iTunes for Windows XP and 2000 video playback performance issues

Open your QuickTime control panel (either via the Control panels, or by going "Edit > Preferences > QuickTime Preferences" in the Quicktime Player). In the Advanced tab, uncheck Enable Direct3D video acceleration:
... and click OK. Quit and restart the QuickTime Player prior to checking to see if the settings change has had any effect. -
How do I get rid of a green and purple screen?
How do I get rid of green and purple on my iPad screen?
You might try a reset by holding the power botton and the home button until you see the apple logo then release them.

Apple TV 1G black screen or green and violet colors please help me
Hi, I have an apple tv 1G and from one day to another is not black screen, the strange thing is that on another monitor "HP w2207" looks good. But I've tested Sony LED TV, LG, .... and does not work in some apple when starting out and color is violet and green and looks bad but does not exit the main menu. I've reinstalled the factory, I tried to change resolution I miss everything but nothing. I'm desperate please help me
I also periodically have this purple/green color showing on the screen when I turn on and sometimes it happens when I turn on Directv so not an Apple TV issue. I believe in my case it is the HDMI cable/port causing it. But it corrects and gives normal picture if I turn off the tv and all devices and turn all on again.

I flashed the BIOS on my dv4 2045dx with the F17 BIOS, NOW Black screen, PLEASE HELP
I flashed the BIOS on my dv4 2045dx with the F17 BIOS, NOW Black screen. Now even when pressing the windows and the B key when powering, the screen stay black. Lights, fan, HD, USB drive with HP_TOOLS partition and bios backup flashes goes on for some time with some beeping every 15 sec.
I try to plug it on to a external monitor without luck.
What's next? Can I reload a BIOS from a CD? Anyone have an idea?
ThanksHello KenyaKitten
I understand after flashing your bios the PC will not boot. I will do all I can to help with this issue.
First thing let’s do a hard reset, remove all devices from the PC including battery and power cable. Once all is removed press and hold power button for 15-20 seconds. Once that is done insert only battery and charging cable. Try to boot now, if getting same response move to next line below.
Next, I want you to try is to boot into the bios menu. Turn the PC off and as you turn it on tap the F10 key repeatedly. Hopefully this boots you into the bios menu. Screen will look a little bluish grey and have setup utility across the top.
Also if the PC starts beeping at you while you’re tapping you can stop. Now if you reach that screen you may get a box that say save changes and exit choose no. (Note your mouse doesn't work on this screen so you would need to use the arrow keys)
After that press F9 another box will up come about reset defaults, accept that. Then press F10 to save and exit. The notebook will attempt to boot.
Also please inform me if you notice the number lock or caps lock keys blinking off and on. Also please let me know if the PC beeps at you while tapping F10 regardless if the bios comes up or not.
Please respond at your earliest convenience when you get further information.
Thank you.

Take it in for diagnosis/repair. I suspect you have a hardware problem (or problems).

Network and multiple screens - please help
As a designer I've always used two screens running from one mac to spread around my open information boxes.
Just received a new g5 with Snow Leopard but only have one monitor socket.
The mac is networked vie ethernet cable to the internet and other macs and pcs in the office
Many years ago I had two macs connected to a direct ethernet cable (no router) and was able to share the screens by nudging the mouse pointer off one screen and onto the other mac.
Whats the terminology for this type of network?
Is it possible for me to keep the new G5 on its ethernet network to access printers, pc, internet,.. and also connect to the other mac using this mouse push through screen sharing feature.
Thanks
EdHi
Just to clarify: there's no such thing as a G5 any more. The model I think you mean would be a MacPro. If you look at the back of the Graphics Card you should see at least one Mini Display Port. This will allow you to connect a second monitor. Some MacPros come with two allowing 3 Monitors. This link will explain it more:
http://store.apple.com/us/browse/home/shopmac/family/macpro?mco=MTg5MTY5NDQ
Look at the graphic in the bottom right hand corner. To get this to work you will need one of these:

Or depending which Monitor you have, one of these:

Remote Management or ARD - Apple Remote Desktop. It's built-into every mac.

Yes.

I have a iPhone 4S and when watching videos on the internet sound cuts out as the video is playing. The rest of the video plays with no sound. Sometimes when I pause It and play again sound comes back but not all the time. can anyone help?
The "restore disk" is built into the Mac. See About Recovery.
Need more specifics about what error messages you got while installing Adobe Flash.
However, you can almost avoid Flash altogether by setting YouTube to play the HTML5 version instead.
Click the Try something new! link at the bottom of the YouTube page.
I don't know about the sound issue. Might be hardware as you think. Try other headphones to check. -

Display leaves green and purple lines
Guys
My display leaves green and purple lines when ever I move any windows. I have zapped the PRAM and tested the RAM with memtest. Any ideas as it's driving my crazyAHT does test the video RAM, so louie's advice is spot-on. If the test doesn't report any VRAM problems and an external display doesn't show the same symptoms, then the fault is somewhere downstream from the logic board, i.e., in the video cable or the LCD itself. AHT isn't able to test those.

I download radio programmes via Podcast, but have recently found that some episodes play for only 30 seconds and then the whole app quits. This happens even though the whole episode has downloaded. I would be grateful for advice.
Try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Delete the problem episodes and redownload.
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device. -
Media Encoder makes clip green and purple.
Media Encoder CS4, Mac OS X:
Have never had any problems before. Now it's making a certain clip either completely green and purple (no other colors) or without footage and only with the sound regardless of which setting I test.
The clip is 5 minutes m4v, H.264, 25 fps, 384 x 216 px, 883 kbits/sec and about 32 Mb.

I have seen posts on this -- green and purple dots appearing on screen for iMac 27 -- -solution was to upgrade firmware but the upgrades suggested were for different graphics cards than i have -- -
Graphics ATI Radeon HD 5750 1024 MB
Is there a firmware update for this graphics card to address this issue?
Thanks - rberger25Wish-to-God - as an avid Mac aficionade since 1984 - that they'd do the same with MY 27" mid-2010 i5, too - or at least SOLVE THIS COMMON PROBLEM??!!
Mine, too, seems precipitated by going to sleep: I let mine run continally ('cept the display), and each morning now (for weeks, it seems) I'm greeted by an alert stating my OS X encountered a problem, and needed to restart.
Today - for the first time - I faced a dark blue screen, with only my cursor appearing .. outlined in white.
As nothing would allow me to access the computer, I had to manually restart from this "freeze" - twice.
Same ATI Radeon HD 5750 1024 MB as rberger25 noted above.
MY AppleCare has been expired for probably six months now - and the nearest Apple store is 200 miles from me...
Despite three iPhone 4S's, two iPad 4 Retina's, a MacBookPro Retina 15", a couple of Apple TV's, a new Airport Extreme, and another two iMac 24's in my present "stable", I seriously doubt Apple will give me the time of day with regard to this specific malady... although support has always been superb and responsive to queries regarding those items still under active AppleCare warranties (unfailingly purchased with each new device).
Just seems a shame to be so easily "forgotten" when it comes to a significant, widespread, common problem with such an expensive device....
