IMac (Intel) :: Change Display Settings Such As Color Temperature And Backlight Brightness On Monitor?

Nov 30, 2014

My wife has an iMac (I don't know any other way to identify it e.g. model number), and she has this 3rd party calibration software that I'm trying to use. I am not used to a Mac, and I cannot find the display settings for the monitor. There are no buttons on the monitor, and when I go to preferences, I can only find the brightness control. I've googled this and cannot find a clear, simple answer. I have used every version of Windows (currently on 8.1 on my PC) and it's easy for me on that platform. I suppose it's just that I don't really know how to navigate Mac OS.

OS X :: Display Settings Visibly Change When Display Settings Panel Is Opened?

Oct 4, 2009

I was using my MBP when I noticed that the display (the built in one) looked a little washed out. To make sure my color profile was set to the correct one, I opened up the display panel in System Preferences. The moment I opened it, the display snapped back to its regular appearance. As far as I can tell, it goes into the washed out version after going to screensaver and coming back, and going into display prefs is the only way to restore it. Anyone seen this before or know how to keep it from doing this?

IMac (Intel) :: Country Settings Worldwide / Web Ads No Longer Appear In Arabic

Jun 2, 2014

On occasion while surfing ads will appear in Arabic.  I will click on YouTube and it is also in Arabic.  The country preference has switched to Saudi Arabia.  I have to switch the YouTube country setting back to Worldwide.  After that change is made, web ads no longer appear in Arabic. Why the changes occur?  For what it's worth malware scans are negative.  I do use Hotspot VPN, but the server used is in the US.

IMac Intel :: Unable To Turn On System / Changed Access Settings Of Some Files

Apr 3, 2009

My girlfriend changed the user's name and the problems started (iMac wouldn't remeber system settings and denied access to some files and catalogs). When I wanted to fix the problem I probably made a mistake and changed the access settings of some files (finally even hard disk's settings). After this action my iMac doesn't start (the screen is white with the apple logo and nothing happens). Is there anybody who knows what to do now?

IMac (Intel) :: Switching Back And Forth Between Wireless And Numeric Keyboard

Sep 11, 2014

Just purchased a new iMac that came with a wireless keyboard.  When I am working on accounting documents, I wish to use a numeric keyboard.  The apple numeric keyboard I purchased does not seem to always work when I turn on my computer.  It seems to only want to pick up the bluetooth keyboard.  I have tried disconnecting the bluetooth keyboard but then it says "no keyboard found" even though I have the numeric keyboard plugged into the USB.

IMac Intel :: Unable To Turn On System / Shut Itself Down And Refused To Power Back Up

Jun 19, 2008

I have a 20" intel-based dual core Mac which i have had for about since early 2006, i haven't had any big issues with it until a few days ago when it suddenly shut itself down and refused to power back up. I ran through the checklist that Apple Support provides, including resetting the SMC by unplugging everything and waiting 15 seconds or so but none of it worked. Eventually I just left the power cord unplugged overnight and in the morning I plugged it back in.

After having the power cord plugged in for a few hours and the machine turned off, i tried pressing the power button again and to my amazement it powered back on! Immediately i ran the TechTool Deluxe software that came with my extended protection plan (now expired) and everything was fine. Later that night however, I had left my computer on for a few hours before returning to it and realizing it had shut itself off again. Now I am back to where I started, going through the checklist provided by Apple and am really starting to get concerned. Does anyone know of anything else I can do, short of taking it in to an Apple store? Or is something needed to be replaced?

Jun 23, 2014

I have recently purchased a refurbished  macbook (2010). I don't have any software but I need to restore my macbook back to factory settings. I watched a couple videos on how to but there are steps they do that I can't . Like when you shut off your macbook and turn it back on holding the "options" button well I don't have that choice of "recovery hd" There is only 1 icon on my screen when pushing the options button and the only choice I have is the"macintosh hd".There aren't two choices like all the videos show ,the videos show "macintosh hd" and "recovery hd".

IMac (Intel) :: Moving Apps From One Display To Another Using Trackpad

Dec 4, 2014

I have an iMac that I have a second display hooked up to it.  I can move an app (say Safari for example) from one display to another with my Magic Mouse.  However, I also have a Magic Trackpad that I would like to do the same thing with, but I cannot figure out for the life of me how to do it.  I'd really rather use the trackpad than the mouse because it's more comfortable to me.
