A small bug inside my screen

I know it would sound funny, but there is a tyny bug/insect inside my Mac screen, I see it moving here and there, and I have no idea how to get rid of it. Any ideas?

There are holes in your Mac, USB ports and ventilation slots to name but a few.
That's how it got in there.

  • A small bug on lock screen

    Hi,
    there was a bug on lock screen before the update and it is still there. I thought Sony might have not been noticed it because it is really a small bug so I wanted to give information. If you use draw pattern when you touch left or right bottom corner for a while it reflects as you touch widget. Or if you slide top to down at right or left corner it enlarges the widget.
    Edit: I have take some screen shots:

    Sorry for spam but someone should take care of this 

  • It looked like a small bug going up and down on my screen then it stopped about 12 o clock a quarter of the way from the top, now it seems to be burned in to the inside of the screen, anyone seen this before?  And what can be done about it,  macbook pro

    I have what looked like a small bug that ran up and down the screen and then sudenly stopped in center upper half of screen and now appears to be burned in to the inside of the screen, anyone had this probelm before and what can be done about it?

    Thanks for the suggestion, the next step was to call Apple, who gave me a claim number, which I discovered you must have to get anything done with them.  They refered me to a Apple store or repair center, after some reseach took it to the Computer Store in Mobile, Alabama and they were excellent.  They took pictures of the screen with bug submitted it to Apple who denied the claim but they kept kicking it up to the next level and finally Apple agreed to sent new cover.  The Computer Store had the cover the next day, they changed it out and now I am bug free.  If your in the area of Mobile Alabama you can feel good about getting help from the Computer Store.  For the two folks that responded to my note, Thank You, good comments and good advice.

  • Satellite P500-1D6 - Small bug between cover plate and screen.

    Hi
    I have a small bug (in Dutch: "donderbeestje") between the protective glass and the actual screen.
    Where I bought the laptop they yell me that they can't do anything about it and this is not under warranty of Toshiba.
    For me however, this should be under warranty of Toshiba.
    The screen with it's upper layers should be firmly closed so that no foreign objects can come in between.
    So, my question is if this is under warranty or if not, what can I do to get this thing out of there?
    Kind regards,
    Pascal.

    Hey,
    Regarding such hardware related problems you should contact an official authorized service provider. The guys can repair notebooks under warrant for free if its a warranty case. Furthermore they can give you an exact if its normal or hardware problem.
    Here its only an user to user forum so nobody can give you an exact answer but a full list of all ASPs you can find here:

  • A tic/bug inside the Mac Book screen!

    Dear Apple,
    I bought an apple mac book last August from Kerala on a student plan. I had no complains untill recently, when I was living in Warsaw one night I saw a couple of bugs (tics) scrolling inside the screen!. It was very strange for me and as I was not able to handle it in Poland, I waited till I reached Netherlands. Here I gave my macbook to Xando and official dealer of Mac. They sent it to the service desk of apple in netherlands. They are now asking me for the purchase receipt which I probably lost when my husband's laptop bag including all its contents were stollen this May while travelling by train from Schiphol. How can I get a new purchase receipt? Without it, the service desk told me that they will charge me for cleaning it. Please help me.
    with regards

    Hello OG MacBook,
    Welcome to the Apple Discussions!
    It is absolutely worth it to change the drive yourself. You can get as big of a drive that you can afford, as long as it meets these criteria.
    2.5" SATA-I (1.5Gbps) or SATA-II (3.0Gbps)
    9mm and I believe 9.5mm in hight I believe. (and most drives are with in this)
    Here are some drives that willwork.

    http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16822136197
    There are many others and other manufactures but these have the best reviews at newegg (best computer parts company on the net).
    Here is some from OWC (the best Mac parts store online)

    I personally would stay away from the 7200RPM drives as they will not gain to much performance in your case. They run faster, hotter and burn up more battery power.
    You may think about purchasing an external firewire enclosure also to clone you drive before swapping it out. This was you clone your drive then put it into the Macbook, boot and you are up and running.
    Then you can put your old 80Gb drive in to the enclosure and then you have an external drive for backups or file transfers.
    The instructions for this upgrade can be found at iFixit, it is a relatively simple upgrade.
    http://eshop.macsales.com/Search/Search.cfm?Ntk=Primary&Ns=P_Popularity%7c1&Ne=5 000&N=6895&Ntt=2.5harddrive
    If you decide to go with creating a clone of your system before install let us know and we can recommend some enclosures and free backup programs for you.
    Total cost for upgrading the drive with enclosure... $150.00
    Total cost for having more space for pictures, movies and music... Priceless!

  • Bugs inside scr

    For a couple of months now there has been two small white bugs crawling inside my screen of my 20GB Zen touch. There was one in an old Zen touch of mine also. Anything I can do? anyone have the same problem?

    I've only had my Zen Sleek for a week now, and I have 2 tiny white-ish bugs crawling under my screen already. It's easy to see how they could have got in there, but it's frustrating that i'll just have to li've with them. If many more appear, I might consider returning the Sleek. For now, I think i'm going to give them names...

  • Dead bug under iPad screen

    1st generation iPad less than 2 years old.  A small bug was crawling around UNDER the screen and died in the middle.  Brought it to an Apple Store and they "offered" to let me pay $249 for a replacement.  Shouldn't the screen be sealed???  Why should I pay $249 when the device was $699 new less than two years ago and shows no visible damage which would allow for a bug to crawl in? 

    Well, if nothing else, you can genuinely and truthfully state your iPad has a bug.
    The top of the screen is in fact sealed, but the bottom of it (under the screen) is not. Odds are the little critter found his way into your iPad via the 30 pin plug port (or less likely the headphone receptacle). I'm not without sympathy, but not sure how you could hold Apple responsible for that.
    Asreviously suggested, you might try moving your issue up the food chain at the Apple store, but beyond that not much more I could recommend. A third party repair service may be a less expensive option it you do end up needing to have it cracked open.

  • A small section of my screen is blurry.

    A small section of my screen is blurry.  About one inch wide and the full length of the screen. Do I need a new screen, or is there a fix?

    There are a couple modules that could be defective: the LCD screen, or the main logic board.  So, there is a fix and, if your computer is not covered by AppleCare, it is likely to be expensive.

  • I have an Intel based iMac that has just developed two small spots on the screen. One 1/8" circle at bottom and a tiny circle at top.  The fading on and off light isn't working anymore either.  Does anyone know anything about this?

    I have an Intel based iMac that has just developed two small spots on the screen - they look light brighter spots on the screen. One 1/8" circle at bottom right and a tiny circle at top right.  The fading on and off light on area surrounding the screen isn't working anymore either.  Has anyone else had similar problems?  Any solutions?  Thanks!

    One way to test is to Safe Boot from the HD, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, Test for problem in Safe Mode...
    PS. Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive
    Reboot, test again.
    If it only does it in Regular Boot, then it could be some hardware problem like Video card, (Quartz is turned off in Safe Mode), or Airport, or some USB or Firewire device, or 3rd party add-on, Check System Preferences>Accounts>Login Items window to see if it or something relevant is listed.
    Check the System Preferences>Other Row, for 3rd party Pref Panes.
    Also look in these if they exist, some are invisible...

  • Small Bug in Flash 8: loading swf that´s a vectorized image in many layers

    Hi! There´s a small bug in flash 8. If you load a swf
    that it´s a vectorized image in many layers, when you give it
    an action in onLoadInit, like mc.onRelease, the mc don´t
    "catch" that action. You can try loading an image (it works), a lot
    of swf (it works), but with this kind of swf the actions onRelease,
    onPress, etc... don´t work.
    The
    swf
    I´ll make a different vectorized image to make it works
    (if there is only one layer it works)

    Seems odd it will only run once. Usually if a cache problem
    you get the same
    results even when you update the movie or server scripts.
    If it is
    http:// it is not local even if from the browser
    cache.
    Verify the html is validated.
    Check to see if this applies to all swfs. Create a simple
    hello world swf
    that connects to a JSP script that returns a simple value to
    Flash. If that
    seems to work, then the problem is in the JSP or
    Actionscripting coding.
    Check you can load the JSP script repeatedly using a direct
    call to it on
    the browser line using
    http://.

  • Remote Desktop Connection/RDC display is too small on my MacBook screen

    I use the free download from MS, RDC version 1.0.3 on my MacBook - to connect remotely to a PC network at my job from home. When I connect remotely the RDC display is very small on my MB screen. Is there anyway to enlarge the display or am I locked into the small size?

    Thanks, Garreth. When I connect remotely with RDC, I only see "RDC" and "Help" along the top of the screen. The 'Options' link is nowhere to be found; even under each of these two tabs. Is there more than one version of RDC for Mac? It would be great if I can fill my entire MB screen (given it's already 13") with the RDC connection display.

    So what do you want us to do? Apple has already told you and there is nothing anyone here can do about your problem as no one here works for Apple.

    Call Apple Care and ask them if your computer is still under warranty.
