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.

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

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

Desktop appearance problem: For no apparent reason my Mac running OSX 10.4.11 imposed a mesh-like pattern over the folders on my desktop and also across the top of the screen and down the right-hand side where I have the dock. How do I remove it?

For no apparent reason my Mac (2 GHz PowerPC G5) running 10.4.11 has put a mesh-like pattern over the folders on my desktop and also a band of the same pattern across the top of the screen and down the right-hand side over the dock. (See screen grabs below.)
It doesn't affect any operations but makes folder names and drop-down menus difficult to read through the pattern.
I'm not aware of changing any settings so suspect I must have clicked on something without noticing. How do I get rid of the overlaid pattern, please?

White bar shows at the top of the screen when dvd played on a mac.

Hi,
I am using DVDSP 3. When I play the dvd on a mac there is a white bar at the top of the screen saying the marker names. If I watch the same dvd on the dvd player hooked up with my tv, it plays fine and does not show any extra area the white bar at the top. Is there any way I can prevent this from happening?

Do worry about it. It sounds like you have coded with the "text track" of the .mov file left superimposed onto the pictures. If you open your original .mov in Quicktime, you can turn off the text track. Then save a reference Quicktime file, and then use this to make your .mp2. Alternatively, change your marker settings when you do a FCP playout (assuming you are using FCP) - turn off the marker export; or make sure that you have chosen compatible settings for your version of DVD SP3. Also, you can write down the timecodes, and put your Chapter markers into DVD SP3 by hand.

Hi jarakay,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
It sounds like your iPhone may be in recovery mode. If you have not already, try resetting the device:
iOS: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting

If the phone does not start normally after a reset, use the steps in this article to restore it:

How can I get rid of that irritating contact/favorites across the top of the home screen?

How can I get rid of that irritating contact/favorites across the top of the home screen?

Actually, that's not on the Home screen, it is on the multitasking or App Switcher view so only shows up when you enter that mode (so I'm not to clear as to why it is so "irritating", but whatever).
Settings app > Mail,Contacts,Calendars > scroll down to CONTACTS section] > Show in App Switcher

When I open safari from the dock it opens as a small window at the top of the screen that is totally white and does not have a tool bar or exit options. All I can do is force quit to exit. What do I do?

With Safari open, press Command , (comma) to open Safari Preferences then select the Extensions tab.
Turn that off, quit (or force quit) Safari then relaunch to test.

Use the trackpad to scroll, thats what it was designed for. The scroll bars automatically disappear when not being used and will appear if you scroll up or down using the trackpad.
This is a user-to-user forum and most people will post on here if they have problems. You very rarely get people posting to say there update went smooth. The fact is the vast majority of Mountain Lion users will not be experiencing any major problems with the OS, or maybe with apps which are not compatible, but thats hardly Apple's fault if developers don't update their apps.

Cannot log on to Firefox, I get this message in a bold red bar across the top of the screen.

# Question
Cannot log on to Firefox, I get this message in a bold red bar across the top of the screen
"The bookmarks and history system will not be functional because one of Firefox’s files is in use bay another application. Some security software can cause this problem"
The window hangs and have to cold boot to bring up the browser. The computer says that I am connected to the internet.

The instructions on the Adobe site are outdated and do no longer apply to current Firefox versions and you can ignore those instructions and save the Adobe installer to your desktop and start the installation with a double-click on that file.
