I have my 24" iMac connected to a 22" LG monitor via an Apple mini DVI to VGA. The best resolution the monitor will run at is 1680x1050 which I guess is the native resolution.
My problem is that there is a black line at the bottom of the screen, and I can drag windows of the top of the screen by about the same amount as is missing of the bottom. What can I do to get that bit of screen to show up in the right place?
Hey guys, I have a 2010 13" MBP. When I open the screen, it squeaks, not that loud, but it squeaks. What should I do? Also, my trackpad seems it is a little out of place when i am looking from the top of the laptop. What should I do about the trackpad?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI own a new 13" MB and a Samsung 40" a550 LCD TV. i bought a Mini-port-to-DVI cable and a DVI-to-HDMI. I hooked the HDMI into the 2nd monitor HDMI-slot on the back of the TV and the Mini-port into the MB. I can only get the TV to display the "standard" Mac desktop background -the one thats the picture of outer-space (purple & blues). but i cant get anything to show up on the screen other that just that desktop background. nothing else shows up.

When I switch between applications such as Safari, iTunes and iPhoto, the screen doesn't show - only the grey tool bar at the top. I think have to click on the appropriate application in the dock for the screen to reveal itself.
What setting do I need to change to be able to see the screen immediately when I switch to the application?
btw, I generally use the cmd/Tab command to switch between applications.
The title pretty much says it. If I uncheck the "show Visualizer in full screen" box it works, but if I have it checked it won't run the visualizer. Even if I am already running the visualizer then right click and choose show in full screen it just brings me back to the music page. This is realy been baffling me.
This particular system is running Windows 7 64 bit. My Win 7 Laptop running 32bit it works fine. Not sure if this has anything to do with it but I figured it was worth a mention.

View 2 Replies View Relatedi have had my macbook go to sleep an not fully wake up, the keyboard, cd drive wake an the screen would just turn the LED on, it brights up but does not show anything.i do NOT think its hardware, i believe the os is just not turining on the screen or speakers. it has done this 2 times an had to hardboot. before i hardboot it, i let it sit for a few minutes to see if it would wake up fully , an tried to close the lid again. also is there a short cut to restart or put it back to sleep so i dont have to hard boot. i dont expect to have this happen again , but if it does a key would be nice

View 8 Replies View RelatedToday, while turning on my iMac, a strange gray progress bar appeared in the 'Apple' start screen. I assume I felt some fear. Then, the login screen shows in red: 'Safe Boot'. Later, the menu bar appeared to be brighter than ever. Thanks to google, I found that safe boot is a mode which you can access by holding shift during startup. Probably I pressed shift accidentally, even though I do not remember. The question is: now, that I restarted my mac and it's back to the normal, will this 'Safe Boot' bring me any consequences? How to proceed?

My macbook won't show the screen where you hold down the option key and it won't show the apple logo or the spinning gear just a blank white screen when I turn it on. I replaced the old hard drive with a brand new 500 gb 2.5 inch data hard drive.I also purchased a brand new copy of OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard.when I put the disc in and power it on holding the option key nothing happens just a white screen with no apple logo or spinning gear.

How can I avoid having a black border when I make a video from a PowerPoint presentation with screenium.
When I choose the Apple wide screen monitor, the border is on all 4 sides, when I choose my second monitor as the output, the border is top and bottom.
Is there a way for the powerpoint slide show to go truly full screen?
My screen just started to occasionally have a flicker of a white line show up...
It doesn't happen that often, should i worry? Is it worth taking it into apple? (Under warranty still) Since its not consistent i wont necessarily be able to show them what its doing..

View 1 Replies View RelatedI just got my Sammy HDTV/Monitor, which is a 23" 1080p HDTV. However, when I connect my MBP via my mini-displayport to HDMI adapter, the screen gets cut off on the top and the bottom. I have tried to switch the resolutions from 1080p to 720p, but it still does the same thing. It gets off both when I use the external as a secondary monitor and when I mirror the displays and use it as a primary monitor. When I turn overscan off in System Prefs, the 1080p image shrinks and there are black bars around all sides (however, it does show the entire screen). Does anyone know how to fix this? I want to get the most out of my recent purchase, and I know this is possible because I've seen it.
