Why are there horizontal faded images streaking across my 4S screen?

This happens when I use my phone for more than five minutes while browsing the internet or watching any video. This obviously makes it very hard to look at after awhile. I've tried everything I could think of. I shut it off, I reset and restored from the iCloud, I did a DFU restore at the Apple Store. This particular iPhone was given to me in August, after I paid the $199 to swap out one I broke. The replacement one I bought (this phone) came with a 90 day warranty and, of course, this problem presented itself two weeks after that warranty was up. There is no physical damage to the phone, as I bought an Otterbox Defender for this phone since I had to pay the price last time I dropped my phone. Is there any advice or help anyone has? Two different Apple Stores refused to swap out my phone, even though I essentially paid 200 dollars for three months of a phone, which then turned out to be defective. Thank you very much.
P.S. Sorry the pictures are low-res, I had to take them with another phone, as the lines do not show up when taking screenshots.

This doesn't sound like a software problem, especially the horizontal lines. I would take it to the nearest Apple Store or call AppleCare to have it repaired.

  • Why are there horizontal lines flowing threw my video?

    After I play back what I have captured, every few seconds a line will flow up through the screen. Does it have to do with how I captures it or how it was recorded? It was recorded on Hi-8 16 bit and captured with the DV-NTSC anamorphic setting. Thanks for your help! Jen

    So I just played the other tape that was recorded in the same camera and there were no lines running thru it, just the other tape, so I guess it was recorded that way!
    Now that I've got ya, I have another question(if you have time!) I captured both of these tapes with the easy set-up setting of DV-NTSC anamorphic(from HI-8 16 bit), the first tape was actually recorded in widescreen, but the second one wasn't but I forgot to switch the setting back before I captured it, so now it looks widescreen. Is there a way to re-capture it with the correct setting but not having to redo all of the logging(ins and outs) all over agian? I would really appreciate your help! Thanks, jen

  • Why are there 2 thin red vertical lines on the screen of my MBP 15" retina which is only 2 months old!

    I would just like to understand why there a two thin red vertical lines on the screen
    I suspect I need to bring into an apple store for diagnostics but is anyone aware of the likely cause?
    thanks v much!

    It could be a GPU issue, a display issue or a display connection issue.  The genius bar technician will offer you a definitive answer and should fix it under the warranty provisions.

  • Why are there lines going across the screen?

    Why are there lines going across the screen?

    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!

  • Why are there lock icons on all of my Bridge Presets?

    Why are there lock icons on all of my Bridge Presets?

    CynthiaRovira,
    As you can see, the original post, almost a year old already, received no replies.  That is undoubtedly due to the total lack of details and the cryptic nature of the message.
    I cannot imagine what this is all about.  What presets?  Where do you see this icon? In the application itself or when looking at the preset folder in your OS navigator (Apple's Finder, Win Explorer)?  What does it look like, a padlock or a circle with a diagonal through it?
    Please provide both a screen shot of the issue and some sensible information.  We don't even know what your platform is Mac or windows.
    BOILERPLATE TEXT:
    Note that this is boilerplate text.
    If you give complete and detailed information about your setup and the issue at hand,
    such as your platform (Mac or Win),
    exact versions of your OS, of Photoshop (not just "CS6", but something like CS6v.13.0.6) and of Bridge,
    your settings in Photoshop > Preference > Performance
    the type of file you were working on,
    machine specs, such as total installed RAM, scratch file HDs, total available HD space, video card specs, including total VRAM installed,
    what troubleshooting steps you have taken so far,
    what error message(s) you receive,
    if having issues opening raw files also the exact camera make and model that generated them,
    if you're having printing issues, indicate the exact make and model of your printer, paper size, image dimensions in pixels (so many pixels wide by so many pixels high). if going through a RIP, specify that too.
    A screen shot of your settings or of the image could be very helpful too,
    etc.,
    someone may be able to help you (not necessarily this poster, who is not a Windows user).

  • Why are there numbers not showing up on my verizon online call and texts log?

    << Discussion  moved from All Things Community to Apple for better exposure >>
    Why are there numbers not showing up on my call and texts log when i look this up online at verizon? There is one number that my daughter texts and calls a lot i found from her phone log but not one time does it show when i look this up on the Verizon wireless call log???  We all have iphones is there an application or something that can block certain calls from showing up? It clearly has texts on her phone from this number why would it not be on the call log?

    Thank you for your reply.
    However, wouldn't an iMessage show up different than a text? It looks just like every other text on her phone.  We all have iphones in this house and they always show up as texts on  the call log but this one number seems to be blocked somehow from showing up on the text log. And there are texts from weeks ago and it's from an actual number not computer or any weird/odd code and yet it never comes across on the text log when i look it up. 
    If you are correct and it's coming across as iMessage is there a way for me to block texts coming across this way so they all show up on the text log?

  • Why are there so many more choices on the USA iTunes Store? Surely having an iTunes account should let you access all itunes availability the world over? Also how do you request films/tv series to the UK itunes?

    Why are there so many more choices on the USA iTunes Store? Surely having an iTunes account should let you access all itunes availability the world over?
    Also how do you request films/tv series to the UK itunes? There's tv series I'd like but they're incomplete like The Batman &amp; Xena Warrior Princess. And films theta aren't available for download but you can purchase in a store like HMV?  Apple isn't doing itself any favours by secluding countries by their store. They'd make billions if you could just select the iTunes Store you want to search &amp; purchase from just by signing in! If anything what they're doing is putting themselves into a corner, other companies like Samsung &amp; HTC are already on too of them for innovation &amp; ease of use. The people they're attracting are predominantly existing Apple users not new customers. What do you guys think?

    It's not Apple's choice, they can only sell a particular item where the content provider/rights-holder has granted them a license to sell them. Content is licensed by the rights-holders to Apple on a country-by-country basis, each country therefore has to have its own store, and you have to be in a country to use its store - they want control over where their content is available.
    You can try requesting that an item be added to the UK store via this page, but unless the rights-holder agrees to then Apple won't be able to sell it here : http://www.apple.com/feedback/itunes.html

  • Why are there so many flash updates?

    Why are there so many Flash updates… I have had two in the last week and at least one more since the start of the year. It seems to have really got silly this last 12 months, is Flash really that unsecure and unstable that it needs this many fixes and updates?
    I know you can tick the install in background box when updating but I like to know what is going onto my computer and given Adobe's knack of crashing my system when using PS and AI I don't really want them silently installing anything.

    99% of the time the update gets prompted by Youtube or BBC when videos won't play on there sites and I follow the links through them. You would like to think that big sites like these would not allow false links to malware to crop up, but it isn't out of the question. Next stop, up to date anti virus…..
    As far as Youtube goes I thought they had adopted HTML 5 now as standard and didn't rely on Flash?

  • If i am the only user and owner of my macbook, then why are there 78 users in the directory editor?

    Hi guys just wanted to know little bit about the open directory as my MacBook Pro has been playing up on and off at least a couple of years.  I have been advised by Apple over the phone or as well as over the genius bar in trying to get my mac to behave.  This normally solves whatever problem that has been happening at the time. "Great, job done!"...  Not so much, as another problem eventually shows it's ugly pixelated face again and then we end up going round the Infinite loop ride one more time...  And this ride ain't always free!  I have forked out about £600 on it so far and it wasn't cheap in the beginning!  Anyway I have just got off the ride and before I get punched by a plyst to get back on I would rather learn about the things I don't understand so hopefully I can resolve the matter without hair loss.  So my main question so far is why are there 78 user names (most of which are computer related names, not all) are found in Directory Utility?  I do not play games on my Mac it is mainly used for media such as iPhoto, iTunes, pages, mail and surfing the net.  So which out these 78 users do I select as a server?
    If you have any suggestions or pointers then please post a reply.
    Thanks for reading
    Orion

    So which out these 78 users do I select as a server?
    None. It's normal. Make no modifications.
    It's not clear what trouble you are experiencing, or if anything is wrong at all. If your Mac is not behaving as you expect it should, describe what's wrong in as much detail as possible.
    Include all relevant details regarding your MacBook Pro starting with which one of its three dozen models you have. Posting the results of EtreCheck will help with that. Read about it here.

  • Why are there no CC Apps in my Creative Cloud Folder?

    Why are there no CC Apps in my Creative Cloud Folder? Just finished cramming Adobe Creative Cloud Flash Professional info. Tried to use it and found that it wasn't in my Apps Folder, nor anywhere else. During my search I discovered that none of the other CC apps were there either. All CS6 Pro apps are there, but no CC.
    IMac 21.5" desktop;  OSX 10.8.5;   2.5 GHz Intel Core i5:   1333 MHz;   4 GB DDR3;   500 GB HD + 500 GB external HD 

    Could you try to scroll down a bit and look into the "Find New Apps" section. I have attached a screenshot for your reference.
    In case you still do not see any CC applications, login to https://creative.adobe.com/products and try to download any CC app and then check if it gets installed and you see it under the "Your apps" section of CC desktop app.

    jes 6203 5994 0 10:52:36 pts/2 0:00 grep web
    I understand we need 1 watch dog for web server and 1 for admin server but why 2 process for "https-mta01.mydomain.com" and "https-admserv"?
    Q2. This is in relation to Q1. If I need to turn on CA Agent for monitoring, which process should I monitor for web server instance and also for http-admserv?
    Newbie.

    Ans1) That is by design and default behavior. There is one watch-dog process and 2 webservd processes that get started by default. The first webservd is called primordial and the second child webservd is the one that actually serves all the HTTP requests.
    Example:
    # ptree 6898
    6898 ./webservd-wdog -r /space/iws61sp2 ...
    6899 webservd -r /space/iws61sp2 -d ..
    6900 webservd -r /space/iws61sp2 -d ...
    In this example, the pid 6898 is called the watchdog process,
    6899 webservd process is called the primordial process
    and the pid 6900 is called the child webservd process that actually serves all the HTTP requests.
    Ans2) You would monitor the child webservd process.
    Thanks
    Manish
