What's wrong with the display?!

Of my many macs, one is an iMac snow. It still works pretty good, and recently I put in a new harddrive and installed Mac OS X onto it. It's been working perfectly fine for the last few months now. However, just early today the display went bonkers. My little sister was playing a game, and it said that in order to play the game, the colors must be set to 256. So I clicked okay and changed the settings from millions to the settings the game needed. When she was done playing the game, however, the colors were all messed up. I tried restarting the computer first, but that didn't work so I went into the preferences and tried to fix the color there. Still, nothing worked. I don't know what's wrong. The colors are in the negitive. Everything that is supposed to be white is black, everything that's supposed to be black is white, everything that's supposed to be blue is red, and so forth. I can't get it off this negitive effect. Can someone please help me out?! Any advice will be greatly appreciated!

Wow... thanks a bunch. That was SOOOO simple. I feel so stupid now. Just one click, and I sooo overpassed it earlier. -_- Agh.
Thanks!!!

  • What's wrong with the display and what will be the solution?

    It shows greenish light on bottom left side every time I it turn on and last for 5-6 mins then It turn into white like brightness is  high on that part of the display. It's hard to notice that in a room if lights are on but can easily noticeable in a dark room. I have sent it to warranty but they said it's a rare problem if its not detectable by diagnosis (May be by software) then I will not get it fix under warranty. What i will do if they could not detect the problem through diagnosis? I am from Bangladesh i have purchased it from a authorized reseller in Bangladesh apple store is not available.
    Its MacBook Pro 15ins Retina Display purchased on February/2014.

    There is an internal screen problem or there is a software bug a lot has been wrong with the mac with retina its just because of the display, my advice just wait until Yosemite comes out then you will resolve your problem hope. Or you can always try an SMC reset just look that up on youtube! ~STEBDOR WAS HÈRE

  • Any guess as to what's wrong with the display? Glows but no image.

    Helping a friend with the A1226 (15 inch Macbook pro). LCD is lit (glows), but a few light lines/bars on left side, no real image at all that I can see. Works fine on my external display. I removed the top case, and played with the connections a little to no avail. Techs said $350 to fix, based on prices I see on EBAY for displays, might be a good deal but not sure if that's a starting at $350. I would hate to get something and find out it's not the display though.

    Since the external display works without issue, it's more likely to be a problem with the internal display or possibly its cables and connections and not a graphics chip problem.
    The LVDS cable is what carries video data, so you want to have a good look at it, checking both for physical damage and to see that it is well seated. Do the same with the inverter cable.
    You can probably find a replacement LVDS cable:
    http://www.ifixit.com/MacBook-Parts/MacBook-Pro-15-Inch-Models-A1226-A1260-Displ ay-Data-Cable/IF185-133
    It seems to be sold out at the moment, but it may be available from a different source or later on from ifixit. The cable is much less expensive than the display, and may be worth a try.
    Good luck!

  • I'm trying to add the system date with a Label. What is wrong with the code

    import java.util.*;
    import javax.swing.*;
    public class CurrentDateApplet extends JApplet
         Calendar currentCalendar = Calendar.getInstance();
         JLabel dateLabel = new JLabel();
         JPanel mainPanel = new JPanel();
         int dayInteger = currentCalendar.get(Calendar.DATE);
         int monthInteger = currentCalendar.get(Calendar.MONTH)+1;
         int yearInteger = currentCalendar.get(Calendar.YEAR);
         public void init()
              mainPanel.add(dateLabel);
              setContentPane(mainPanel);
              dateLabel.append(currentCalendar.get(Calendar.HOUR) + currentCalendar.get
                        (Calendar.MINUTE);
    }

    As for what's wrong with the code, it would be easier if you said: it doesn't show the date (it does this instead), it doesn't compile (I get this message) etc.
    Anyway I'll assume you want to display the time in a label...
    dateLabel.append(currentCalendar.get(Calendar.HOUR) + currentCalendar.get
    (Calendar.MINUTE);This won't compile: the parentheses are mismatched, and there is simply no such thing as append(). So we could trydateLabel.setText("" + currentCalendar.get(Calendar.HOUR) + currentCalendar.get(Calendar.MINUTE));This wroks, but looks pretty nasty and it's not how you are supposed to format dates and times. Here's the unofficial party line, nicked from one of jverd's posts:
    Calculating Java dates: Take the time to learn how to create and use dates
    Formatting a Date Using a Custom Format
    Parsing a Date Using a Custom Format
    From those links you should be able to find those applicable to times like this: http://www.exampledepot.com/egs/java.text/FormatTime.html
    Using this approach you would end up with something like:import java.text.Format;
    import java.text.SimpleDateFormat;
    import java.util.Date;
    import javax.swing.JApplet;
    import javax.swing.JLabel;
    import javax.swing.JPanel;
    public class CurrentDateApplet extends JApplet
        private Date date;
        private JLabel timeLabel;
        private JPanel mainPanel;
        public void init()
            mainPanel = new JPanel();
            timeLabel = new JLabel();
            mainPanel.add(timeLabel);
            setContentPane(mainPanel);
            date = new Date();
            Format formatter = new SimpleDateFormat("HH:ss a");
            timeLabel.setText(formatter.format(date));
    }

  • What's wrong with the activation server? i just bought my ipad wifi celllular... and have a 3g cellular network connection... when i press the bottom to activate my ipad it says the activation server cannot be reached. what to do then?

    what's wrong with the activation server? i just bought my ipad wifi celllular... and have a 3g cellular network connection... when i press the bottom to activate my ipad it says the activation server cannot be reached. what to do then?

    Hey aries35,
    I found the following that goes over troubleshooting the same issue for the iPhone. I know you have an iPad, but the steps should still apply:
    Perform the following steps:
    Restart the iPhone.
    Try another means of reaching the activation server and attempt to activate.
    Try connecting to a known-good Wi-Fi network if you're unable to activate using a cellular data connection.
    Try connecting to iTunes if you're unable to activate using Wi-Fi.
    Restore the iPhone.
    If you receive an alert message when you attempt to activate your iPhone, try to place the iPhone in recovery mode and perform a restore. If you're still unable to complete the setup assistant due to an activation error, contact Apple for assistance.

    which means there is error in :
    mgr.initialize(localAddr);
    mgr.addTarget(destAddr);
    But i don't know what's wrong with the code,
    can any one help me?

    I do not find any problem using the same ports for local and destination address with several unicasts. My problems are others.
    But note that the error is even at constructing the localAddress, I mean before trying the destinationAddress. Thus the reason cannot be the former is already in use. In fact I think the later belongs to a remote hosts. Likely, it is trying to access the destinationAddress through the localAddress, but this has not been constructed properly.

    Léon Hoeneveld's response works for me.  You will need to download a tool that allows you to edit the WSDL and reorder the values. 
    I've used a freeware tool like notepad++  collapsed all the levels and opened up the <wsdl:definitions xmlns:wsdl... segment and reordered the subgroups beneath it accordingly.
    1. types
    2. message
    3. portType
    4. binding
    5. service
    Thanks again Léon!

    You email address has been removed from your post.
    You wouldn't want bad people to send you spam messages for the rest of your life, eh?
    Moderator Advice:
    If this is the same E2900 that you have mentioned in every one of your other forum posts, then it would seem you need to contact Technical Support and open a proper support request. These forums are NOT techsupport and that system seems so poorly configured that it needs deep analysis. Such investigation cannot be done by using an online forum.
    The immediate solution is to log on to the SC of that box and power it down, then boot it back up. At least it will be running after that.

    I just wanted to leave a note that it's working now. I'm not sure if it was the latest iTunes update that got it working or that i decided to start a new library instead of using the one i had backed up on Windows 8 (it didn't occur to me to check using the old library when i re-installed iTunes). But if anyone is having this problem, it might be worth trying again with a new installation of iTunes to see if the latest update works for you, and if not, try using a fresh library instead of a backup (by fresh library i mean discard your old library completely and start a new library, not just restore as new iPhone, a whole new library).
