White screen instead of blank black screen sreensaver...

I just want to use a blank black screensaver, but when I do I have a white screen instead. The same also happens when I lock the screen, a white screen and a login box. I'm using the newest gnome (2.24-3), nvidia driver, and compiz-fusion. The opengl screensavers work fine. I can't find anyone else when this problem so far. I have searched quite a bit, but maybe I'm still not searching for the right thing.

Blank black screen with just mouse pointer after logging in windows 8.1

First of all On starting the system, it was taking much longer time than usual.. Then after logging in it showed only a blank black screen with white mouse pointer.. had to force shut down (shut down also took longer time).. on starting went to safe mode and ran extensive system check.. HARD DRIVE SMART CHECK PASSED but HARD DRIVE SHORT DST CHECK FAILED...I have the recovery discs and the notebook is under warranty..

Hi
If your hard drive is failing on short DST test then you will need to contact HP in your local region and arrange with HP a repair ( Hard drive replacement ) . You say your machine is still in Warranty then the cost of shipping and repair will be covered by HP .

Fullscreen Mode shows blank black screen..

Hi,
I am panorama photographer and usually show my panos on FPP (Flash panorama player).
I want to show .flv movie on inside the panorama but there were some problems with fullscreen
mode. -> When I click on the panorama fullscreen button, the flash movie turns fullscreen
instead of the panorama.
My workaround is laying an iframe (in which the flash movie is inserted) on the <div> layer.
At first it seemed to be working OK but the problem is that once I click on the "movie" button,
the panorama's fullscreen mode just show black blank screen.
-> "Movie" Button
You can check my pano at:
http://www.panosis.com/biz/ubertree/movie_test/openvr.html
Try to see the panorama in fullscreen mode before watching the movie, it will work fine.
But turning the panorama in fullscreen mode after watching the movie shows just
blank black screen and I guess this might have something to do with HTML layer
or iframe?
Does anybody have a clue what the problem is?
Thank you in advance!

Hi Luckey,
One option that I do want to try, is booting the computer into safe mode. I have included the steps here for you to follow: (steps obtained from 'Windows 7 Safe Mode')
Entering Safe Mode at start up
Use the following steps to start Windows 7 in Safe Mode when the computer is off:
1)Turn on the computer and immediately begin pressing the F8 key repeatedly.
2)From the Windows Advanced Options Menu, use the arrow keys to select Safe Mode, and press ENTER.
** The computer will automatically exit Safe Mode when it is shut down. **
Once you are able to access safe mode. Try to access your Device Manager. I have included the document 'How Do I Access Device Manager in Windows?'. Please click on your operating system, and open Device Manager. Once the Device Manager window is open, please follow these steps.
1) Click the plus sign beside keyboard
2) Right click on the device in this section
3) Click uninstall
4) Click the plus sign beside Mice and other pointing devices
5) Right click on the device in this section
6) Click uninstall
Once these steps have been completed, please shut down the computer completely and restart. Please let me know if you are able to fully use the keyboard and mouse after. Thank you.

Blank Black Screen installing Windows XP Pro SP2 Retail with Boot Camp

Hi Support Forum -
I am using BootCamp Assistant (3.0.2) to install WindowsXP_SP2_ProRetail on my MacBook Pro 15inch
Mid2009 (10.6.4) plus all the latest updates.
I have no problems creating partitions ranging from 5GB to more than half my HDD of 500GB....but
nothing but one problem when I get to Step 3 of the BootCamp Installation & Setup Guide, page 7:
To install Windows on your Mac computer:
1 a... Open Boot Camp Assistant
b... Select 'Start Windows installer'
c... Click Continue
2..... Insert your Windows installation disc
3..... In Boot Camp Assistant, click Start Installation
Your computer starts up from the Windows installation disc
That's as far as I get! First a Gong sound then the gray screen appears and afterwards the screen turns BLACK. After a short while the optical drive starts up and is quite active with either searching
or scanning back and forth for about 5 minutes. Then all activity stops and finally the computer stops
2 minutes later. Interestingly the keyboard was never lit and none of the keys responded to my de-
pressions. I also noticed the aluminum case near the display pivot edge get quite warm probably due
to the black screen so I decided to press the power-off key.
I restarted the computer and held the option key depressed, selected the Macintosh HD icon and pro-
ceeded to the Logs (system.log & the windowserver.log) for any entries about the windows installer
and the optical drive operations....Nothing, nothing! Then I checked the BootCamp HD with Finder,
nothing, -> 0 items were loaded!
I feel at a loss what to do next??? I even ran Techtooldeluxe diagnostic utility from AppleCare, every-
thing AOK!
Now I had Windows installed successfully when I first had bought my MBP 15 last year. Then I decided
to play around with Parallel Desktop 5, didn't like it and tried to return to Windows and ever since that
time I was not able to install Windows XP. I decided to reinstall OSX to Factory Conditions, did the
7-pass erase for secure delete, installed OSX again without any problems. But Windows still won't in-
stall, get that Blank Black Screen, no cursors!
Perhaps something slipped in with soft- or firmware upgrades for the Graphic/Display 'Nvidia GeForce
9400M that won't let windows installer function properly?
Just for kicks I reinstalled Parallel Desktop 5 and Win/XP installed without any problems.
The Apple Experts in CA couldn't help me either. Now I had hoped there might be a solution to this
problem at this time?!
I like my MBP very much and I might convert to OSX and it's applications if I can't get an answer to my
problem. I still don't like to give up though and would like to pursue this problem with more diagnostic aids from Tech Support. I know there a lot of OPEN incidents on this particular problem!
If this really is a Windows Installer failure, why does it work with Parallel Desktop 5, there is no BOOT
CAMP ASSISTANT!!!!
Hope I can get a solution soon from some brilliant expert out there!
Thanks for your patience,
Paul370

I know what are you talking about. It looks more like a video compatibility issue in Boot Camp like this one:
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1454?viewlocale=en_US
I encountered something similar with a MacBook Pro and despite all searching, i couldn't find a solution. However i am not that expert you are searching for, just the average Mac user
*You may try another XP version, i was able to install a older XP home setup, and updated lately after installing :|*
I am interested myself in a solution from some brilliant expert out there! Keeping an eye on this thread.

Hi jayla_mora,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
It sounds like your iPhone screen is going blank and not responding.
You may find the tips in this article useful for troubleshooting this behavior:

IOS app rejected due to a blank, black screen upon launch

I recently got my iPhone app rejected and the reason is below:
"We found that your app exhibited one or more bugs, when reviewed on iPhone 5 running iOS 6.1.3, on both Wi-Fi and cellular networks, which is not in compliance with the App Store Review Guidelines.
Specifically, the app displayed a blank, black screen upon launch. Please see the attached screenshot/s for more information.
The steps to reproduce are:
1. Launch app
2. Bug encountered"
I use FlashDevelop and the latest Apache Flex + Air SDK 3.7 + swfversion=20. I don't have an iPhone 5 to test on but I've tested the application on a 3GS, iPod touch (4th gen.) on IOS 4.3, 5.1 and 6.1.3 (latest) and the application works on all of them.
The attached screenshot mentioned above is here:
the "blank" screen is actually a deep blue one, which the color I've set to my project's background.
I didn't make any special modifications in the code to support iPhone 5 to be honest, and the project dimensions were set to 640x960, but I did include the [email protected], and it shows inside the .ipa at Payload/Myapp.app/
In almost all the iPhone 5 discussions I've read online, theat launch problem is due to the [email protected] not being there in the root of the release .ipa, but I'm sure it does exist on my ipa. Also, I have request high resolution set to high, and the Info.plist has the correct DTPlatformVersion (6.0) and DTSDKName (iphoneos6.0).
Any ideas what the problem could be?
Thanks.

Remember - they gave you a very specific device and version. It might be working on all other configurations. So if you are unable to get your hands on that device and version you are going to be left stabbing in the dark as to what is going wrong.
My advice would just be to figure out what's different with that device and make sure everything is configured properly.
Another option - if you don't want this app on the iPad anyway - is to remove it from the configuration:
<key>UIDeviceFamily</key>
<array>
<string>1</string>
<string>2</string>
</array>
You would delete the <string>2</string> part.

How to add a blank black screen ?

Hi all,
In FCE4, I can create a blank black screen, I think the effect was slug.
But how do we do that in FCP X ?
Thanks

to use the position tool press P, and then press A again to go back to the normal tool.
Alternatives:
1. You can also right click and replace an existing clip with a gap by selecting "replace with gap"
2. You can insert a Solid>Custom clip from the media generator on the right.

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 another cable
- 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.
