MacBook Pro :: Dashboard Icons Turned Dark Except For Google Chrome?
Feb 21, 2012
I was working on my computer yesterday and must have changed a setting and have no idea how it got this way or how to get it back. My dashboard icons are in shadow. I can see them, but they are dark...except for Google Chrome. Is this a google invasion of my computer? I want them all bright again!
My computer fell off my bed onto the carpet and now the screen stays dark but the computer still comes on. Is there anyway to fix the screen? I know the computer is on because I pressed the caps lock key and I can hear it when I turn it on or off.
I get this ad every time I load the page. I figured it was a cookie problem so I searched my cookies for 'Google' and deleted all the results. I'm still getting it. It's not happening in Firefox, only Safari. It's been there since Friday or Saturday. Am I the only one?
I recently bought a 13" MacBook Pro and I've been using Safari as my default browser. Before I got my Macbook and used a Windows 7 laptop, Google Chrome was my default browser. I still wanna use it as my default browser but not sure if it's as good for the Macbook as it is for Windows. I know both are fast browsers but which is the best one for the Macbook? Should I stick with Safari or should I switch to Google Chrome?
I wanted to have chrome run on my MBP but every time I install and use it, the CPU skyrockets and becomes very slow. Can anyone tell me why this is so?
After installing adobe cs5 on my computer, gfxcardstatus has been going crazy changing between intel and nvidia graphics. I happens at random, while using google chrome. For instance, the front page o [URL] triggers the nvidia graphics to come one. When i navigate to these forums, it switches back to intel. When I log into gmail, its fine, until gmail signs me into gchat(i disables video chatting b/c i know that was a known issue with turning on the nvidia card)
I tried to install the adblock extension on my MBP and it disappears every time I quit Chrome. I have to go back and reinstall it from the chrome app store.Â
Things I've tried without success: Googling for a solution, reinstalling chrome, and repairing disk utilityÂ
lion keeps crashing, esp when using google chrome. even when im not. but chrome in itself crashes alot here is the log

I have just updated to a Macbook pro from my macbook. I'm finding it difficult to transfer my Google chrome bookmarks over? i dont have wifi atm so ive used an external hard drive to transfer! Which has worked well.Except the Bookmarks?
I just recently bought a 15 inch 2012 macbook pro. I installed Google Chrome, and my computer began restarting itself from time to time. A black pop-up appears, saying that my computer needs to restart, in multiple languages. Is Google Chrome the cause of this?
So lately I've been have a Rainbow Pinwheel show up whenever I'm using google chrome and it keeps me from doing anything until it's stops spinning? Why is this pinwheel showing up and what can I do to make it if anything happen a lot less. It's mostly annoys me because I can't use anything when it's spinning. Is this something to do with my hard drive or something?
Google and any searches using the address bar in google chrome do not load at all sometimes. I experience this problem only at home and only sometimes. Everything works perfectly in my university labs. It fails on other browsers like Firefox and Safari as well. Strange this is that all the other sites like Facebook, LinkedIn, engadget all load up properly.
Im having a problem in my mac. Whenever i use google map in crome browser, My mac is hanging and i need to restart it. Its first time my mac is hanging
Whenever I go onto Safari or Google Chrome there are always advertisements. Also occasionally when I click on something a new tab appears or a 'pop up page'. Im almost certain I have a virus on my MacBook Pro. how to remove it and is it removable.
Every time I try to connect to any social media websites and a few others, I experience one of a few things. The first being an SSL error. This happens on Facebook, Youtube, Twitter, and even Google. The second is an SSL error again, BUT I can proceed anyway, which brings me to the third issue. I get onto the website but all the graphics on the website are gone and I get something looking like the image below. Time and date are correct.

so i just got bored with safari so i decided to try out google chrome. but i had a few questions.
is there a way to add custom buttons like in safari? i like how in safari i can put buttons like + Bookmark and place it anywhere i like. is there a way to do this in chrome?
and also any recommended extensions? right now i just have, add block, flash block, and speed dial (top sites) extensions.
I am getting more and more used to Chrome, and am liking it tons. I would switch in a second but the one thing it doesn't have that Safari does, is smooth scrolling.
I downloaded smooth scroll plugin, and it makes it great with my mouse, feels like Safari, but the touchpad is 100000000 billion times more sensitive. Touching both my fingers down and just flinching makes me rocket to one end of the page.
(bear with me, I'm bored, and as you will see, not a writer)A hot, humid courtroom room is filled with press, jurors, lawyers, interns, police. Cameras focused in on him, Chrome, with his cold steel ball, doesn't blink; but stares coldly at his victim, the GT 330m, and his wife, the battery.from the back of the room, and man bursts through the door, briefcase a mess, hair flailing, his too tight to be even almost comfortable shoes, tap quickly as he sprints to the table. Ryan Brown, lawyer extraordinare, sits down.
I use Google Chrome for my web browser and lately whenever I open a pop-up window it automatically goes into full-screen. I don't remember changing any settings and can't figure out how to change it back. What did I do?
My University program has recently adopted using Google+ Hangout for communication and we are told to use Google Chrome as our browser during these sessions.Â
However, my iSight Camera (2009 13' MBP) will not work when using Google Chrome. The camera works fine with all other browsers, applications, etc. (Skype, Safari, Firefox, etc.).Â
my friend has a mac and she said i should download google chrome and i did but i think there is a virus possibly.there are plenty of pop ups of something called "safe finder" when i first open google chrome and i want to get rid of the pop ups but i don't know how to get rid of them?
decided to download some apps without paying attention and decided to download InstallMac into my Macbook Pro. I have done some previous research and installed the Adware Removal Tool and it did work delete some of the items, but I think there's still more to delete that the adware removal tool did not get. Â
Whenever I search something on Google Chrome, the address bar will show search.strtpoint.com before redirecting to my search. For example if I type the letters dasf in the search bar on Google Chrome it will show the url: [URL]
I've tried using Avast full system scan and many of the items couldn't be deleted. It would say, Unable to scan: 1675 items and about 37 infections and I believe this is all from the Install Mac that I've downloaded.
I want to "reformat" my 2010 Macbook, so I guess I want to restore it to factory settings and then restore from my Time Capsule backup. I don't know how to do this. I also don't know how to make sure I don't lose all my Google Chrome bookmarks when I restore it.

I just did a system update and now google chrome and the silverlight plugin do not work. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling both numerous times, restarted, and checked for updates again but nothing works. What's going on?Â
