White back. Turning black

My white backed 16g has black stripes appearing. Anyone else notice this. Just took my case off today to clean it all and noticed it. I will post a link to pics when I get home

This is being reported a lot by people with the white back. If you go to macrumors.com and go to the forum on that site for the iphone you'll see all kinds of people talking about it. Although they are describing the black marks as cracks. Some have posted pics. There are some saying that it happens by the headphone jack, the volume rocker and at the base towards the chrome piece.
I think it is a heat thing. The phone is getting warm on the inside and causing the plastic to crack(just my theory). Black is probably doing it too but of course you won't see it with the black. My gf was going to get white but we both expressed concerns if it would have the "yellowing" problem the white macbooks had back in the day. So we both reserved black models which are of course sold out for what seems like forever.

  • White text turning black/grey in Safari 3.1/3.2

    I have a very odd problem I have not been able to find the answer to anywhere else.  I have created a website that has white text on dark blue background.  It looks fine in all other browsers except for Safari 3.1 and 3.2.  All of the <p> tags have turned black/grey.  I am completely stumped.

    I haven't looked at your stylesheet, but lots of errors reported by the validator in your stylesheet that you may want to fix..

    Do not worry about the errors being reported for the spry stylesheet where it refers to the iframe - they always throw an error, it's the others you have to worry about.

  • My ipod touch 4th generation has frozen whilst being turned back on. The apple logo has been on the screen and ever so often the screen flashes white and then black. How do I get it to unfreeze at this stage?

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try on another computer
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • Some pictures in I-Photo seem to be corrupted. When I click on them, the photo comes up for a second, then the picture turns black with a white fuzzy circle inside it and what looks like an explanation mark. Some older, some newer,  no common thread.

    Some pictures in I-Photo seem to be corrupted. When I click on them, they come up for a second, then turn black with a white circle in the middle and what looks like an explanation mark. There does not seem to be any rhyme or reason to the photos that are a problem, some older ones, some newer, some albums have none, some albums have a lot.
    Thanks,
    Mark

    time to time (when I have a chance), I will go to Finder, bring up ALL Images and start going through them to label them (before I put a label on them, they are simply listed as 123 jpg, 124 jpg etc.).
    You're damaging the Library doing that, and that's the cause of your problem.
    Never, ever, ever use the  All Images search and work on items in yoyr iPhoto Library. They must only be accessed via the iPhoto window.
    Restroe from abck up or try rebuild the Library:
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In early versions of Library Manager it's the File -> Rebuild command. In later versions it's under the Library menu.)
    This will create an entirely new library. It will then copy (or try to) your photos and all the associated metadata and versions to this new Library, and arrange it as close as it can to what you had in the damaged Library. It does this based on information it finds in the iPhoto sharing mechanism - but that means that things not shared won't be there, so no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your events, albums and keywords, faces and places back.
    Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.
    Next: You need to learn how to use iPhoto. There's no need to be dragging things to the desktop:

  • My 1st generation Ipod touch won't turn on at all and whenever I press the buttons to reset it all I get is a white screen, or a white screen with black lines across.

    My 1st generation Ipod touch won't turn on at all and whenever I press the buttons to reset it all I get is a white screen, or a white screen with black lines across.Help pleaseeeeee!

    You can work through the five 5 R's of troubleshooting to rule out the possibility of corrupted software.
    http://www.apple.com/support/ipod/five_rs/
    It might also be a good idea to let the iPod's battery fully drain. Then charge it back up and restore it once more in iTunes.
    Otherwise, it's likely a hardware issue with the iPod's LCD display, meaning you'll need to take or send your iPod in for service either via Apple or a third party repair service. Here is Apple's repair pricing.
    http://www.apple.com/support/ipod/service/prices/
    Note that they don't actually repair the device, but exchange it for one of the same generation, model, and capacity.  A third party service will actually replace the damaged part for a little less.  Google "iPod screen repair" and you should get a number of results to work with.

  • I have some problems when turning on my iphone5.  The screen turns black and so white and when I start an app it suddenly turn itselves off.  This happens every time when I turn it on.  After I have turned it on several times it acts normal...Anyone??

    I have some problems when turning on my iphone 5.  The screen turns black and then white and the appli is red and when I finally get in and start an app it turnes itselves off.  This happens every time when I turn it on.  After I have turned it on several times it acts normal.... But something is wrong...Anyone???

    Try reset
    Reset: Hold down the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Note: You will not lose any data
    If no joy, restore backup using iTunes.
    Finally last attempt, rsetore as new and sync content back manually.

  • The new operating system changed the background color of the photos app from black to white.  How do I change the color back to black?

    The new operating system (IOS 7) changed the background color of the Photos App (Camera Roll) from black to white.  How do I change the color back to black?

    You can't. Sorry.

    You can tell apple that you'd like it and see if they respond....eventually. (you don't get responses from your feedback mails but they have been known to issue changes that users have asked for, such as the ability to mass delete apps)

  • Colored Pictures Turning Black and White in Certain Files (PSE 9.0)

    Hey guys, how's it going?
    I'll try to keep this breif, but it may take a little while to explain. I've been getting a problem with PSE 9.0 where an image or layer that is in color suddenly turns black and white when I paste it into an open file. It's a lot easier to explain with pictures, so here you go.
    Figure 1
    Figure 2
    (Before anything else is said, I would like to point out the reasoning behind relating a middle-finger, a hammer and sickle, and a pony from My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic into a single image; it's a parody project I'm working on. It's about 30 times weirder out of context, trust me.)
    As you can see, the source imagery with "APPA JAK" on it (figure 1) is in full color, but when I pasted it onto the layer with the hammer and sickle, it turned black and white. This has become the same with a few other images I have found, but I couldn't find any reliable way to recreate the problem. The problem is also the same weather I find the pictures from the internet, copy those to my clipboard, and paste them or simply paste them from my computer.
    If you need any more information (dxdiag, settings, etc. etc.) feel free to ask, and thanks in advance for helping me!

    Just a guess because I don't have the original images to play with, but the hammer and sickle is a grayscale image so images posted into it become grayscale. 
    Use Image / Mode / RGB Color to change the target image to color before pasting anything into it.
    Alternatively, use File / New to create a new image that is full color and paste everything into it.

  • My iPad wont turn on, its black screen then i press home power buttons together and white screen with black apple logo come out after 5 seconds black "lighten" screen comes out and its stuck just like that! Whats the problem?

    HI
    this happened today suddenly while i was working on my iPad it kicked my out of the app that i was using then white screen with black apple logo came out, i thought it was an ordinary thing cause this happens all the time with me, but this time it refused to turn on! After the white screen with the black logo vanished i wad waiting for my lock screen but no, a black screen showed up just like that! And could tell it was black "lighten" screen i tried more than 10 times to do the home+power thing but it wont work, whats wrong with my ipad!

    If the battery is completely drained it may take some time while on the charger before the iPad responds. Plug the iPad into the charger that came with it and plug that into a good wall outlet. Wait one hour. Then reset your device. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart. If the iPad restarts let it continue to charge until the battery is 100%. If it doesn't start up make an appointment at an Apple Store to have your device examined by a technician. Or contact Apple Support. They will examine your iPad and explain your options.

  • Why are my duotone images turning black and white when put in indesign?

    why are my duotone images turning black and white when put in indesign?
    I have been playing duo and montotone images into indesing with no trouble. Then all of a sudden as I placew them they go black and whitre. I have tried everything from re saving, re making in photoshop and differant colours et5c. But nothing seems to wrok. The images already in my document arew fine it is just new ones. If someone could help that would be great

    Can you start a new document and then load one of the duotones known to be good in the working file and have it correct? If so, try one of the duotones known to be bad in the working document in the new file. Does it work?
    If no to either suggestion, can you share one of the images known to be good and one known to be bad? ZIP 'em up and upload to dropbox and plop a link here. Or, to keep the file sizes down, you can quickly make a new set and provide those.
    As well, the ID version and OS info would probably be helpful.
    Take care, Mike
