White infomation strips across the top

White infomation strips across the top of the screen . . . I edited my clips in Final Cut . . . Made a Quick Time Movie and imported into iMovie to set the chapter markers for sharing with iDVD . . . Now when I play the clip the program inserts this white line at the top telling me where every Trasition, Cut . . . etc was made in FC and I can't find where to turn this line off so I can go to iDVD . . . Help!!!!!

Quit iMovie.
Locate a file named com.apple.iMovie.plist and get rid of it. iMovie will create a new one the next time it runs. Empty the trash.
The files are located here:
-->/Users/YourName**/Library/Preferences/com.apple.iMovie.plist
Then do the same for Quicktime:
Quit QuickTime.
Locate a file named com.apple.quicktime.plist and get rid of it. QuickTime will create a new one the next time it runs. Empty the trash
The files are located here:
-->/Users/YourName**/Library/Preferences/com.apple.QuickTime.plist
Once that is done, (and this is most important) run a permissions repair from the Disk Utility folder. The re-boot.

Toolbar installed that has caused a blank strip across the top of my facebook page which i cannot click on

I accidentally installed a toolbar i do not want. i think i successfully uninstalled it, but after it was installed, when i go into the facebook app, there is a strip across the top of the facebook page on which i cannot click on to . this strip includes my spot on which i click on to my wall or homepage in facebook. if i move the page down far enough, i can click on other things, but never can i get far enough down to click on these tabs. this only happens in firefox, which i prefer wayyy over google chrome for gaming. do i need to delete firefox and reinstall? please help!

Recently, the Yahoo Toolbar and the Babylon extension have been reported to cause that problem. They seem to overlap invisibly over the top of the web page display. If you have either or both, uninstall or disable them/it, or see if an update is available that solves the problem.

Help! I've got a white line going across the top to my I pod

I have a 80gb classic ipod and I've got a white line going across the top. it is extreamly annoying and nothing can fix it not even restoring my ipod what can i do

That sounds possibly like there are dead pixels on the screen. I am not too sure about what type of screen is in the new iPods, but on my Sony PSP there are white spots in places, which I was informed were dead pixels. Sony mentions it in their literature regarding the PSP.
You should be able to take it back to your Apple store, and they should be able to take a look at it for you.

There is a white stripe across the top of the browser window which covers the top of the sceen. I cannot see the navigation or menu options, how can I fix?

There is a white stripe about 3/4 of an inch tall across the top of the window. I cannot grab the menu bar, or see the menu or navigation window, or the search bar. When I click on the white strip, it goes through to the desktop like the top of the program does not exist.
I've never seen this issue before.

A screenshot may help

White strips across the Top of the screen ?

What are they and how do I get rid of them . . . ?
Dual 1 GHz PowerPC G4 Mac OS X (10.3.9)

Shiner, I had very strange things happen in a 6.0.3 project which I thought was due to the upgrade. Every title was rendered over a black background and an exported QT movie was rendered with an 'emboss' effect even though I had not set these options.
I moved the preferences (plist in user/libray/preferences) for iMovie to the desktop, still had the problems with the existing project but not new projects.
I redid the project from scratch with the 'clean' prefernces and it no longer had the strange behavior.

Weird horizontal white lines going across the screen

I've had my nano 4g for around six months. When I first bought it, there was a single white line going across the top of the screen. It never really got in the way, so I didn't bother exchanging the ipod. Recently, another white line of pixels appeared lower on the screen. This line is there even while I reset it.
Besides replacing the screen or exchanging the iPod, is there anything that I can do to fix this?

It may (likely) be a video card issue. There is a "known issue" with certain iMacs made in a certain timeframe (2011-12 I think), and one of the telltale symptoms is vertical lines showing up on your display. Go to Apple's website (https://getsupport.apple.com/) to find out how to get support, then either call their service line (they usually pick right up) or take it into your nearest store's Genius Bar. They'll first check if your iMac's serial number is on the list of vulnerable machines, and then they'll have to do a diagnostic to prove that's the problem -- if your serial number's on the list and it fails the diagnostic, they'll replace the video card for free, even if you're not covered by AppleCare (and if you are, it's free regardless).
My iMac just had this problem, there were lines sometimes and just weird display issues other times. Eventually it just grayed out altogether and I couldn't use it. So it's likely your display problems will worsen if you don't get it looked at.
It took them about a week to ship the new video card over, install it, and return the iMac to me.
Good luck!

When I try to use Firefox Browser on my Samsung Note 3, the screen comes up white after the orange bar runs across the top. It worked yesterday.

March, 9th, 2015 -- My Samsung Note 3 is on AT&T wireless, but I Have Xfinity wi-fi at home. Firefox browser worked yesterday & last night. Today when I search it comes up with a blank white screen after the orange bar runs across the top & never loads anything (words or pictures). When I open the tabs in the side bar, it shows the pictures for them, but still only loads a white page after clicking actual link. It will not sync the last few saved bookmarks with my computer. I made sure that I have the latest android version installed, but It still does this even after uninstalling & re-installing & restarting the phone. AT&T had an update a couple of days ago & I've already talked with their tech support with no resolution. I don't know if there is conflict with AT&T's update & current Android Firefox browser. Please Fix, thank you.

Yes, it does the same thing whether on wi-fi or 4G.

White blocks across the top of screen

My Iphone5 has a series of white blocks spaced uniformly across the top of the screen. When the phone is first turned on the blocks are not there. After a short time they appear and become denser. The phone functions perfectly, however.

Shiner, I had very strange things happen in a 6.0.3 project which I thought was due to the upgrade. Every title was rendered over a black background and an exported QT movie was rendered with an 'emboss' effect even though I had not set these options.

My MacBook Pro has been having difficulties at startup. It sometimes locks and doesn't get past the white screen. It has also locked up several times and gotten a green stripes across the entire screen. What is causing this and how do I fix it?

You don't, take it to Apple for repair.
This might interest you if it's too old to fix.

Why are there white bars across the top of my iPhone 5 screen?

I have a brand new iphone 5 (not 5S) which has white bars across the top of the screen. The bars are quite faint at first, if the screen has been locked for a while but they get brighter while you use the phone. The bars overlap and obscure the time and battery symbols but you can still see through them with effort. I have tried turning it off and on again but this has not helped. It may have happened after the phone was updated to the latest version (iOS 7.1.2). this was required so I could transfer my old phone's information from a backup. Has anyone experienced this issue or know the cause of it?

Hi Ererer, I am sorry to hear that you are having that problem with characters showing up at the top of your screen. I had a similar problem so I understand how frustrating it can be. This problem has been linked to some antivirus software. Could you tell me what kind you use? I have also found an easy solution to this. When they appear simply drag the window from its maximized state down. It will no longer take up the full screen and the characters will be gone and everything will be back to normal. If you want it maximized again simply drag it back. I hope this helps.

Recently dropped iPhone 5 and now I have white boxes across the top of the screen.

Recently dropped my phone. Now I have white boxes across the top of the screen...does anyone know if this can be fixed?

Take it to an Apple Retail Store Genius Bar likely will be replaced but user damage voids the warranty
You could try reset and then if required a restore, worth trying but if no change then Out of Warranty exchange in US $229

I have a new iPhone 5S. While trying to learn about it, I accidentally recorded a voice memo with no content. I cannot now figure out how to get rid of it. There is a banner across the top of my phone with this memo which I don't want. Help!

I have a new iPhone 5S. While trying to learn about it, I accidentally recorded a voice memo with no content. I cannot now figure out how to get rid of it. There is a banner across the top of my phone with this memo which I don't want. I have deleted it from iTunes but cannot get it off the phone. Help!

The banner usually indicates that the memo is "Paused." If you go back into voice memos, touch the word "Done" beside the big red pause button, give it a name, then it will show in a list. Touch the memo in the list then touch the trash can icon that should appear.

"not responding" message across the top of mozilla several times a day and my entire computer lags when I receive that message.

about two to three weeks ago mozilla started to lag on occasion with the "not responding" message across the top of the browser. it would freeze while i was playing facebook games or while i was watching youtube videos or just trying to scroll down a page, so i used my laptop less and less hoping the rest period would help stop it from lagging and from not responding. now that i have uninstalled useless programs and freed up hard drive space it is still lagging a lot. i even updated to 9.01 and updated the plug-ins that i use and it still lags.

Have you recently upgraded is so i suggest you run it in safe mode first.
Below is an example
