Rotation of the screen with Automator and a script
I have no knowledge whatsoever about scripts, coding or automator. I continue to read discussions about the issue, but I don't understand them. It would be a great help for me if someone please explain how to create a kind of keyboard shortcut that changed the rotation of the screen (the own macbook screen, not an external) using automator and a script on a Macbook Air running OS X El Capitan 10.11.2.
Is this possible?
Thank you in advance.
One option is to use the utility command line fb - turn in Automator service and assign a keyboard shortcut. Download the GitHub source fb-rotation, compilation, following the indications on GitHub and output the binary to usr; or download a binary compiled and move to usr/local/bin.
Create an Automator service, set the options "Service receives no entry in any application", add an action to run the Shell Script and set the options as "Shell: / bin/bash ', ' Pass entry: to stdin. Type the command rotation fb for the desired degree of orientation of the screen such as ' / usr/local/bin/fb-rotation - d 0 - r 180 ' 180 ° on the main screen. Register the service under a name.
Go to > System Preferences > keyboard > shortcuts > Services. Highlight the service you created, select it, click "none" and create a shortcut using a unique combination of keys. Create separate services of Automator for the additional screen orientations. Quit the system preferences when you are finished.
Tested with OS X 10.10.5 Yosemite and El Capitan 10.11.3

Rotation of the screen with virtual keyboard.
Hey all, I am porting a no touch to work in touch devices, but the screen rotation throws me some curves that I can't find a good solution for. I have an image for the background of a screen. In the method of paint background vertical field Manager that holds everything, I check the current resolution and to draw the image appropriate for the portrait to landscape mode. This works well, as long as the virtual keyboard is hidden. I bring up the keyboard (of, say, by clicking in a text field) and the background image does not change (i.e. going from portrait to landscape leaves me with a white bar on the right side of the screen), and the fields have the same width and page layouts. Any advice?
Ah ha! Long story short, Display.getHeight () returns the height of the screen, but if the virtual keyboard is displayed, its height will not appear in the getHeight() value. This was causing problems with my orientation detection code.
The strange display behavior was a result of me being too careful. I put 'default' in all of my instructions switch during the original no touch development, so that when I don't add different resolutions, he displayed a screen that would be small, but grave not down. I did not detect a known resolution and continued to display the portrait mode, but only while the keyboard was visible.

My old program MS - Dos ran full-screen in earlier versions of Windows, including earlier versions of Windows XP. Because of something in one of the updates is now the top third only in mode full screen, with the rest of the screen black, white and scrollable (as the Windows XP version of the command prompt has always been). How to return to a usable full-screen version (that is, the previous version of MS-DOS)?

* Original title: start Windows 7
I recently accidentally dropped my laptop and now whenever I try to turn it on, it gets frozen on the screen with the logo of "starting windows." When it disappears, the screen just goes black and nothing else happens. Logins appear not at all. I also tried to run in safe mode and safe mode with networking mode, but it has not loaded yet even to the windows splash screen. I ran Startup Repair 3 times now and he has not yet fixed my problem. I was wondering if it might have been damaged in the fall.
Probably yes it is damaged in the case otherwise he would start.

I have synced my Hotmail account with Mail on RT and mail comes and goes well. All my files from my Outlook account transferred.
However, whenever I try to move a message read in the Inbox to a folder, clicking the command move at the bottom of the screen (after pulling up to the command bar), results in the grizzled screen and nothing happens for hours. It seems that the system is blocked until I tap the gray screen and I'm back to where I was. In others, move the message command doesn't seem to work.
I found that when I press the movement it gray to the screen with the exception of the list of folders on the left.
I can then scroll up and down the list of folders and click the folder that I want to move the message.
Seems to work ok for me.

Set the rotation of the screen to external monitor on Portege M400
I would like to be able to use the screen of the mobile phone in the form of tablets, while the display to an external monitor. The problem is that when you use the laptop in its Tablet configuration (fixed and swivel screen on top) the external monitor displays the image upside down. If I rotate the screen image output, so I use the Tablet upside which is impossible when it is docked. Is it all the same independently set the rotation of the screen of the Tablet and the external screen?
If someone could help me with this I would be grateful as at this moment whether or not I have to remove the Tablet and use backwards the external monitor.I use Windows tablet PC on a Portege M400 and a monitor external 22 "LCD
Thank you.
Before we start the discussion I just have one question: do you want to use extended desktop or office cloned on external monitor?

I just took the new smartphone Iphone SE in April 2016. It worked perfectly fine for the months that I had it until last night. I was recording playing me the guitar, when I put the phone down with the camera open for a few seconds. When I went to get the phone upwards, the screen was frozen and colors have been melted. The multicolored lines appeared as well. I tried to close the application by pressing the home button, and when I tried to press the sleep button to access the lock screen, the phone went black. When I went to press the sleep button to access the lock screen, the phone opens the same screen frozen, multicolored as before. I panicked and hard reset the phone. I turn on is no longer the phone. No apple logo appears, as well as logos 'connect to Itunes '. I tried to restore the phone to factory via Itunes, but it was without result.
Surprisingly, when I went to restore the phone, the second time, serial number has changed from a game of numbers and letters invalid "s/o," as if Itunes is no longer permitted to detect it as an iPhone. In addition, the phone is now considered as a completely new system on Itunes, which I don't know is normal.
I made an appointment with the Applestore for tomorrow, but I would like to comment on what someone thinks that this problem could be. I have not tried to Jailbreak the phone somehow, but have the feeling that my phone may have been hacked, or perhaps he is being malicious programs? Maybe it's a motherboard problem or display?
Any comments would be greatly appreciated.

Your phone is not hacked and all the malware only you could catch is malicious cookies in Safari or other browsers that are removed easily by clearing their cache. I suspect you have a hardware problem, nothing more, that should solve the Apple store.

When I click on the screen with the general options, the search, privacy etc.. I can't click anything. The page will just die. I reinstalled it. I can't respond to anything
Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions (Firefox, Tools/menu key > Modules > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is the cause of the problem.
