White light from corners of Samsung UN60D6000 LED TV

So i finally got my TV today after going through HE11 and back with the shipping process. I hook it up, run all the wires through the wall, get surround sound exactly where i want it and settle in to watch my brand new tv. Within in 10 seconds imy eyes are drawn to these white clouds in all corners of the screen. W T F???!!!!! I am so tired of this crap, pay thousands of dollars for products and they have the quality of a knock off from china town. Can anyone give me an answer as to why they are there or an adjustment i can make other than the backlighting or brightness, ive tried those and have had no luck. Looks like i will be waiting for another TV from BB.

It's refered to as flashlighting. It's a common problem in LCD/led as the driving factor is lighting pushed through pixels to create the picture. What you are seeing is a spot where the lighting is passing through unscathed or overpowering around the edges since this is an edge lit tv.
Some TVs are worse than others even if they are the same model, size and even batch.
This can be caused for many reasons which I won't go into here. You have 2 options return and/or exchange it at your local store if still in that window. Or you can call the tv manufacturer to see of it is out of their allowable tolerance levels.
Remember some flashlighting is still within their specs so even though you may not be happy with it the manufacturer may not fix it.
Many people find some relief by turning brightness down, contrast down and some TVs allow you to adjust back light levels. If this one does then make sure it is not on high.
For more info on this I would go to hidefjunkies.com as it has tons of great info

Wires fully connected but still no white light. Why?

I was trying to switch to AirPlay then there was an error occur on my tv screen asking me to "try again later". Thereafter i power off my apple tv and power up again and there was no white light from my apple tv. Cables are fully connected and i"ve tried connecting the apple tv to other power supply and still no white light. What should I do?

Welcome to the Apple community.
In addition to the white light that doesn't illuminate, is your Apple TV working or not.

Corners of screen are bleeding white light! URGENT!

Hi
I just bought a Intel-based iMac Core Duo 20" a few days ago. Not the glossy screen version.
Really would like to hear from a lot of people about this before I contact apple:
The corners of my screen appear to be bleeding a small amount of white light, most notably from the lower right. This is very visible when watching movies, when the scene is very dark or pitch black, my monitor isn't.
I was wondering if this is just something that 20" screens do, because my old 4:3 19" DVI certainly doesn't do this.
Several ways to test if your monitor does this:
photoshop: make a black document and press F twice to go full screen, now press TAB to remove the tools.
front row: open any movie and pause before it starts, hopefully on a black screen.
Would really really appreciate a lot of responses to this. It may be a problem with the mac, may just be normal, I have no idea.
Here is an image of what happens: (slightly exaggerated due to the long exposure and offset angle)

Is there a glossy screen version of the iMac? That would be news to me...
My 20" Cinema Display does this, though only from a specific viewing angle. It's not visible when looking at the display straight on. I believe the effect is somehow caused by the anti-glare coating and how it refracts the light, because the color of the "leakage" changes with the viewing angle.
My 20" iMac uses a different, more reflective anti-glare coating and the "leakage" effect is there, but very subtle, not as bad as in your picture. So I guess Apple uses different LCD panels in the iMac and it depends on your luck of the draw...

Does anyone else notice the light from the headphone jack on their white iPhone 4?

I noticed that whenever i turn on my lockscreen or whenever my iphone's screen is on, you can see light from the audio headphone jack. Anyone else have this problem? ( Iphone 4 white)

Clarification, iPhoneMac is correct. There is light noticible at the bottom of the Headphone Jack.
However, when I responded, I checked the 6 iPhone 4 here and none of them showed this in lit room normal usage. In Dark Room especially with the Screen Brightness turned up you can see a bit of light (glow) at the very bottom of the Jack, if you look right down the barrel.

When I come from outside and press the home button to turn my iPod on, there is white, light blue and red lines but it is transparent enough that I can see my background, time, etc. It hasn't been water damaged, so that cant be the problem.

When I come from outside and press the home button to turn my iPod on, there is white, light blue and red lines but it is transparent enough that I can see my background, time, etc. It hasn't been water damaged, so that can't be the problem. I was thinking maybe it is just because of the cold but, I don't like having my iPod doing that whenever I come back from the cold. However, I was in class too and this problem happened but it was inside! So I am very worried, I have dropped my ipod a few times but it hasn't fallen that hard to effect it.

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.
- 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: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

White Light Dead Battery HELP PLEASE

Okay so, I accidentally et my Droid Bionic completely drain, and now when I try to charge it, it wont even show the white indicator LED. If I take the battery out and plug it in to the USB it shows the white light. Ive tried chargin it on over 3 Chargers for at least a Half Hour on each. Im going to let it charge over night. But my question is... Does the white indicator light only show up once it has reached at least 5% charge? Also is there any way I can boot the phone without the battery in it? If anyone could help me that would be great. Thank You.

Well your best bet to charge with is a OEM if you can find one, It will charge with one bought from Verizon even Radio Shack might have a AC adapter that can utilize the USB cord you have, To buy one on-line will cost from 15 to 25 dollars plus S&H and Verizon would have one for about 25 to 30 see if they have AC adapter that you can plug that USB in..

HT2173 iMac late2006 17". When power button pressed, white light comes on and stays on but nothing else happens?

As stated: our Mac won't turn on other than the white light on the bottom right.
Read through the support page which suggests taking the back off ( and use internal power switch) as in owners manual section 4, however it's not in there. At the bottom there is a couple of screws and a couple of star head screws, I'm guessing I need to undo these and possibly pull from the bottom. Don't want to break it,
Thanks
Mike

A steady LED light generally indicates that the computer is on and the display is asleep.
Before you get inpatient and start taking out screws or trying to open it up, which is not an easy task on that model.
Reset the SMC, as per > Resetting the System Management Controller (SMC)
1. Shut down the computer.
2. Unplug the computer's power cord.
3. Wait fifteen seconds.
4. Attach the computer's power cord.
5. Wait five seconds, then press the power button to turn on the computer.
Then run the AHT, as per > Using Apple Hardware Test

I am using the G Drive Slim to back up my files, but I don't know how to tell if or when it is finished. The white light does not change, flicker, go out, etc. When is it finished?

The whole story: The hard drive on my quite new Mac Book Pro, bought in December of 2011, crashed and burned in the Fall of 2012. I purchased a new hard drive and was informed that the only way I could have saved my "stuff" was to back it up with an external hard drive. Who knew?? I bought a G Drive Slim at the Apple store, and on their advice. BUT I really don't understand how to use it, and the instructions are completely inadequate. How can you tell when it is finished? I have educated myself on the proper way to eject the Drive, but I don't know how to tell if it is done. Or, frankly, if it is even doing anything. The white light burns steadily, no blinking, no flickering. Nothing. Thanks for help.

are you backing up files, or doing a Time machine backup, either way, the Time machine will STOP when finished and show "last backup at XXXXXX" meaning its done...... OR if when transferring files, it will show a progress bar on your desktop and vanish when files are copied.
Open up the Hitachi drive (your G drive is made by Hitachi, and the best made by the way).....and see if the files are there.
a MORE VISUAL way is to open the hard drive file, and drag and drop files INTO the Gdrive and you can see them visually be copied there as you do it.
To see your HD on your desktop GOTO FINDER......PREFERENCES....then GENERAL TAB.........check the box marked HARD DRIVES.........then your Gdrive will appear on your desktop........open it from there, and DRAG and drop files from anywhere INTO the Gdrive....... easy visual way to see the files being copied into the Gdrive.

HT1600 I have Apple TV version 7.4.2 and we pressed on the remote the select button and the menu button at the same time to update our software. The box shows white light, we can get the screen to select netflix but nothing will move and the box will not

I have Apple TV version 7.4.2. We read in a blog that in order to reset our Apple TV we should press the menu button and the select big button at the same time which we did. Now when we attempt to turn on the apple tv box it with the remote we get a white light and sometimes we can get the menu screen but the remote will not let us move now will it allow us to turn the apple tv on or off. If we just leave it alone, the white light eventually goes away. I did unplug the apple tv and we removed the batteries and reinstalled them from the remote and that did not make any difference. Please advise.

If your problem persists get yourself a micro USB cable (sold separately), you can restore your Apple TV from iTunes:
Remove ALL cables from Apple TV. (if you don't you will not see Apple TV in the iTunes Source list)
Connect the micro USB cable to the Apple TV and to your computer.
Reconnect the power cable (only for Apple TV 3)
Open iTunes.
Select your Apple TV in the Devices list, and then click Restore.

I am unable to set my WD mybook world edition (white light) for time machine.

I have new iMac running OS X Mavricks 10.9 and a WD mybook world edition (white light) connected via eithernet to router.
I am unable to set up time machine using this drive.
I can see the MyBookWorld drive in Finder and read and write files with no problems. I can also see the MyBookWorld_Backup drive but I am unable to connect.
Time machine can see the drive but when I select, use drive, it trys to connect and gives me an error message: There was a problem connecting to the server "MyBookWorld-Backup"
I have already updated the hardrive firmware.
Any ideas?

WD and their lack of support for Mavericks:
A recent email from WD reads:
Dear WD Registered Customer,
UPDATE: November 1st, 2013
As a valued WD customer we want to make you aware of new reports of Western Digital and other external HDD products experiencing data loss when updating to Apple's OS X Mavericks (10.9). WD is urgently investigating these reports and the possible connection to the WD Drive Manager, WD Raid Manager and WD SmartWare software applications. Until the issue is understood and the cause identified, WD strongly urges our customers to uninstall these software applications before updating to OS X Mavericks (10.9), or delay upgrading. If you have already upgraded to Mavericks, WD recommends that you remove these applications and restart your computer. If you have already upgraded to Mavericks and are experiencing difficulty in accessing your external hard drive, please do not save anything to the drive, disconnect the drive from your computer, and contact Western Digital Customer Service at http://support.wd.com/country/ for further assistance.
The WD Drive Manager, WD Raid Manager, and WD SmartWare software applications are not new and have been available from WD for many years. However, solely as a precaution WD has removed these applications from our website as we investigate this issue.
Sincerely,
Western Digital
Which is basically Western Digital informing you that their out-of-date utilities don’t support Mavericks.
In any case those utilities are not the most effective. The moral of the story is: the first thing you should do after buying a WD drive is to format it as HFS Extended (Journaled) and not install ANY of their utilities but instead use reliable applications like CarbonCopyCloner or SuperDuper - or Time Machine.

My Apple TV is not responding anymore and white light flickers

My Apple TV does not respond anymore and white light flickers all the Time. No connection anymore.

In that case if you've already tried unplugging from power, waiting for a minute or so and restarting and nothing helps, you probably ned to factory restore via iTunes:

Imac starts with a black screen and flashing white light on console

I have a 24" imac, it is white and it is from the first year they used the intel chip. When I power it up I get a black blank screen and then the white light on the lower right side of the console flashes on and off. I hear the disk drive spin (I put the 10.4 install disk in ) and it does nothing. How do I get the disk out. I even tried holding down the mouse button at start up and that doesn't work.
I tried to remedy this myself by resetting pram. I have taken out memory and put it back in. I have been able to get it running twice before by taking out memory and putting it back in but it only worked for a little while and then I turned it off and went to turn it back on and same problem again. Is this a logic board problem or something else. I think I read if it was the logic board the disk drive wouldn't work but I hear it spinning.
Can anyone help me?

Hi MacGruff69
That has all the classic signs of unseated, improperly seated or bad RAM.
Laying the iMac face down on a soft towel and reseat the module(s) by pressing real hard on each one with both thumbs, then closing the ejector clips and replacing the cover.
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1432
Them if the iMac still has the same symptoms, try one module at a time or replace the module(s) with new one(s).
