15' Macbook Pro Retina  Ghosting to Yellowish Screen!

Hi Guys.
I have a Retina Macbook Pro 15' (Mid 2012) version which i bought on August 1st 2012. I have used my computer for couple months without any issue till ghosting and white spotting problems were accured. Finally, i visited Apple Store and they replaced my screen without any question. I had a LG one and they swapped it with Samsung version. In our conversation with Apple genius, i mentioned that i have read lots of artictles with replaced screens like yellowish tint and other stuff and he replied do not worry about it. So today i got my repaired computer and boom, my retina display is gone and yellowish bothering screen came! I am professional graphic designer with master dagree and colors is part of my life. I have 27' Imac and 2011 13' Macbook air also. The only reason i bought this retina display because of better colors and resolution! I paid almots 3.000$ for faulty computer and when they fixed it, it became more useless for me! I also attached the picture of screens. So what must i do right now? What are my options?
Thank you for your comments and help!

hey man, we are on the same boat.same happened to mine rite now, there are couple pixcel off on my screen and i went to replace, no question ask replaced a new screen,when i got home i found the yellow tint so i went back they see the problem replaced again still the same yellow tint. call me for pickup the at the 3rd replacement. still the same problem, they pull out the manager of the store saying this yellow tint is a normal perfect screeen. Now i got no chose left the store with the yellow tint screen. makes me not want to turn it on again.
I love apple products, I own IMAC 2xmacbooks iphones and also an Ipad. but this is very disappointed. this yellow very bothers me when i editting my pictures. I hope apple will see this problem and get it solve.

  • 2012 macbook pro retina display artifacts on screen when using onboard video

    2012 Macbook Pro Retina Display artifacts on screen when using onboard video.
    About a month ago I've noticed these strange artifacts (blocky pixelated looking) running vertically down the screen. It first started when using Safari. Then it started to happen all the time. I turned off the auto switch video in preferences, which I'm assuming forces the computer to use the separate video card and the artifacts go away.
    On top of that issue I also have had the ghosting issue.
    Anyone else have this problem?

    artifacts onscreen could mean a faulty gpu. You said by forcing it on inbuilt gpu you do not find this issue highlights that. Do take it in to apple for service and also tell them of your ghosting issue.
    There are a few retina owners who have faulty gpus.

  • MacBook Pro retina display warm yellowish tint.

    I had my MacBook Pro retina display screen replaced. But the new screen they replace for me has a warm yellow tint on the display.anyone else have the same problem?I went back to the store they say thats normal they wont do anything. what Can I do?
    The it's very yellow. I using a iPad and Mac Pro at home. Every time I put my eye on my MacBook it just make my eye very uncomfortable. Very warm and yellowish.

    Hi Rzeng123, Thanks for sharing. I also sent my MBPR for second time LCD replacement. But I have no confidence with apple now I am pretty sure I will end up with a second YELLOW screen just like you.I bought my mac in London, but I am right now in Singapore there is no apple store only got reseller and authorized service centre. So I can only send my mac to the authorized service centre for repair. Luckily the manager is not blind as yours but they keep telling me that this kind of obvuous yellowish screen has no problem and it is perfect within specification. So he refused to help me change again at first until I speak to a senior apple advisor through phone call( I have spoken to apple technique support for three times before I finally speak to this "useful senior guy".) The manager in the service centre agreed for a second replacement and as he said before no guarantee.  I don't understand why Apple didn't draw attention to this issue. U and me are not the special cases. I did reserch online before I took my mac for repair people were complaining the same problem as we are. http://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?t=1561150
    As for calibration, this is useless for my machine I have tried to adjust the color.May be I will try after I get my second replacement.  Like u said every apple staff are trying to convince us this yellow screen is normal, if it was why the devices sold in store are not yellow ? They service mananger even told me that those sell in store now are the first batch of manufacturing and they are actually with defects but this yellow one are the second batch with improvement and it is better than the white on
    I also take my mac to a retail apple store for comparison just like the picture shown below the left one is a normal retina display and the yellow one on the right is my poor mac.

  • Macbook pro retina ghost image problem

    I have heard about the burn-in problem on macbook pro retina display especially on LG screen. After I got my macbook retina for 3 months, the ghost image problem become really really unacceptable. After 4~5mins, the image on screen will burn in obviously for quite a long time. IT IS VERY OBVIOUS!! So I drop by apple store and find a genius, he did a persistence test on my macbook. The test is under a very low brightness, and I can not even know how he was operating. After 6 minutes, he said there is no burn-in problem. He explained that, if my macbook pass the test, it means my screen is within inspection. But I can tell if this screen is good, APPLE you should take a look at your inspection and change it RIGHT NOW. Everyone of my friend who have seen the problem on my screen says it is unacceptabe, how can it be within inspection? If anyone need a photo of that, i will provide.

    Good work...

    If they replace your MacBookPro, you can avoid a service charge for runniing the back-up for you.

  • When I turn on or restart my Macbook Pro Retina 15", my entire screen flashes completely bright yellow for a few seconds and then it goes to the normal Welcome screen.  How do I fix this??

    Hi Everyone,
    This problem just started today.  When I turn on or restart my Macbook Pro Retina 15" (Mid 2012 version), my screen is light gray like normal, and then after a few seconds my entire screen flashes completely bright yellow for a few seconds, and then it goes to the normal Welcome screen (where I choose to login as myself or a guest user).  This suddenly started today and has not stopped since.  This keeps happening every single time I turn on or restart my computer.
    Yesterday I installed all the Mavericks and other updates that were available in the App Store, so I'm wondering if this is related to that since this never happened prior to my doing those updates yesterday.  When I first installed the new OS X Mavericks (10.9.3) update, it went through the whole installation process (took about 10 minutes), and then during the installation I got an error message saying that it couldn't verify my iTunes application that was on my laptop, and then my laptop finished installing the updates.  Then once my laptop restarted, the App Store "Updates" section said that I had to do the whole OS X Mavericks (10.9.3) and iTunes (Version 11.2) updates all over again.  So my laptop did the whole installation again (took about 10 minutes, but this time I didn't get that "iTunes error message" during the installation process). 
    Now, when I go to the App Store "Updates" section, it says the following under "Updates Installed in the Last 30 days":
    -Digital Camera RAW Compatibility Update (Version 5.05) installed May 15, 2014
    -OS X Update (Version 10.9.3) installed May 15, 2014
    -iTunes (Version 11.2) installed May 15, 2014
    -OS X Update (Version 10.9.3) installed May 15, 2014
    -iTunes (Version 11.2) installed May 15, 2014
    -Security Update 2014-002 (Version 1.0) installed April 22, 2014
    I'm wondering if this flashing bright yellow screen upon bootup is related to the fact that my laptop installed the OS X Update and the iTunes Update two times each?  Or is this new problem totally unrelated?  It's just that this problem started a day after these 2 updates were installed twice.
    My Macbook Pro Retina 15" (Mid 2012 version) is otherwise working fine at least as of now.  The only issue so far is this flashing bright yellow screen every time I turn on or restart my computer.
    If anyone could please help me fix this so that my bootup screen doesn't flash completely bright yellow anymore, I would be forever grateful! 
    Thank you so much for reading this and for any help you can provide. 
    hope everyone is well,
    Elaine

    Hey everyone in Apple world!
    I figured out how to fix the flashing yellow screen problem that I've been having on my MBP!  Yessssss!!!
    I found this super handy website with the golden answer: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1379
    I followed the instructions on this page and here's what I did:
    Resetting NVRAM / PRAM
    Shut down your Mac.
    Locate the following keys on the keyboard: Command (⌘), Option, P, and R. You will need to hold these keys down simultaneously in step 4.
    Turn on the computer.
    Press and hold the Command-Option-P-R keys before the gray screen appears.
    Hold the keys down until the computer restarts and you hear the startup sound for the second time.
    Release the keys.
    I went through the 6 steps above twice, just to make sure I got rid of whatever stuff was holding up my bootup process.  Since I did that, my MBP boots up just like normal.  No flashing yellow screen anymore!!   
    (Note that I arrived at this solution when I first saw this page: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2570?viewlocale=en_US)
    Let me know if this works for you!

  • 13" macbook pro retina 2013 problem: blank screen when waking up from standby

    I bought a 13" macbook pro retina 2013 about 3 months ago and it is for about a week or two that I encountered a problem: when I close the lid and open it after a while(or it goes to standby by not using it for some time and then I wake it up by pressing a button), sometimes it shows a blank dark screen(with mouse cursor) for about 15 seconds and then either the screen is turned off(and by pressing a key it shows the login screen) or it shows the normal login screen.

    I also have this problem, and now the
    NVIDIA GeForce GT 650M is not working at all
    I use gfxCardStatus for work on integrated card and i can't use other displays obviously, because all video outputs (HDMI & Thunderbolt) are taking their ways from discrete card (but working on other displays is my profession of audiovisual artist). My world guarranty is over now, new motherboard costs near 1500 $ and now i don't want what to do.Maybe reballing of videochip will help me, but i'm afraid that not autorised service in my country will kill my motherboard at all. This is my first mac & i have lost many time for take the money for buyng it. I have so much frustration.

  • Windows 8 on boot camp on MacBook Pro retina w/external monitors = screen resolution not correct

    how do i calibrate external monitors resolutions individually in windows 8 (like can be done in OS X) so that my MacBook Pro retina text isn't teeny tiny and my external monitors look normal? Is there a way to set the resolution and text size for each monitor separate from one another in Windows 8? Thanks for the help.

    In Windows 8 use the help menu and search for external display.

  • Macbook Pro Retina Ghosting

    Hello,
    Couple of months ago I bought the macbook pro with retina in UK and I am now in Qatar. My screen in suffering from ghosting- I know I'm not alone and there is a thread of 400+ page about this - and I have no idea who I should go to for repair and I can't figure out how to contact Support from here.
    Any suggestion is the most welcom!
    Thanks

    If I let my display on the same image/screen for about 7 min, the image get stick on my screen but fade after some times. It happen regularly though. Is it normal or is it something I should worry about?
    Thanks!

  • MacBook Pro Retina Display - Keyboard Marking Screen

    Hello,
    The keyboard on my new MacBook Pro with Retina Display is leaving marks on the screen.  They wash off with a damp soft cloth.  Any suggestions to stop the problem.
    Thanks
    Joe

    In my opinion this is a defect in your MacBook Pro.  The tolerances are extremely tight.  The keys should not come into contact with your screen whatsoever.   I would call Apple tech support to see if it warrants a replacement if you want.  I even had a retina MacBook Pro for a couple weeks (before I returned it because of image retention issue in LG display) and there was never any key marks on the screen.  If you have a Samsung display though I would be hesitant asking for a replacement.

    Your kernel panic is being caused by a fault, of some kind, on your GPU.
    If I were you, I would make an appointment at your local Apple Store/AASP and take you computer and a print out of the kernel panic with you.
    Good luck,

  • MacBook Pro Retina Display Issue (snowy screen)

    I have noticed when my mid 2012 MBP Retina comes out of sleep, it sometimes goes to a snowy (like TV static) screen for like 1/2 a second before the login screen shows up. So far I've only noticed it with the Intel 4000 card, and not the nVidia GeForce 650M, but I have not done enough testing to be certain. I started noticing this issue in beta 5 or 6 of Yosemite, and it continues to be a problem after the final release.

    Okay I ran the MacBook exclusively on the nVidia video for 2 days and did not notice the issue once. Today I switched back to the Intel card and it did it first time it came out of sleep. Now I am wondering if it's hardware or driver issue. That is the only video issue I notice.

    When I turn on my Macbook pro retina display, a black screen show up while I hear the normal start up sound.  I noticed that the machine gets very hot, any clue how to make it work?

    If the Mac is too hot to touch, take it in for service.

  • Small dent on Macbook Pro Retina display screen.

    I'm looking for anyone else that has had this problem, ways to either fix it or just what to expect from the Apple Store when I go in.  If it has happened to me twice, I feel it can't be too rare.  Perhaps just to doccument it as well.
    I've had my 15" Macbook Pro with Retina display for 6 months now and other than the screen, I've enjoyed it very much.
    Two weeks into having the new computer I found what I thought was a dead pixel (two inches right then two inches up from center) and brought it in.  I'd read about such things online and the LG/Samsung debacle but really just wanted my new computer to stay nice and new.
    When I got into the store, they told me it was really just a dent in the screen from when dust or something got trapped between the screen and keyboard when it was closed.  I thought to myself "Hey, my office is in the basement, maybe something fell down from the bare ceiling and it could have happened." Although I find myself taking very good care of the computer.
    They replaced the screen for me under warranty and I instantly went out and got a case, screen cleaner that came with a fine brush to wipe they keyboard off with and a nifty microfiber cloth.  Ever since then I've been afraid to close my Macbook Pro and rarely do so.  I even asked them what I could do to prevent such things in the future.  I was specifically told there wasn't much I could do other than try to ensure it didn't close on any dust.  There was no product that would help and they recommended I didn't get a screen protector because it might damage a screen as well.  For a laptop it seemed very impractical, but what else was I really supposed to do other than use it as a desktop?
    Since then I've moved and no longer work in a basement.  Two days ago I noticed the exact same thing appear in very nearly the exact same spot (I didn't document it the first time so I can't be perfectly sure but definitely the ball park of a square cm).  I live a ways from an apple store but am visiting home in a week and based off my own experience and others that I have read, they'll replace the screen.  I just wanted to esure they had the part since I'll only be in town for the weekend.  Apple care had given me a case number and the number of the store, I called to arrange a genius appointment and try to see if they had the part, or at least if they could order it now.
    The first man I got on the phone initially said "I don't know why they keep having people call here, let me get a technician for you."  A few minutes on hold and I got a woman who claimed very matter of fact "That damage isn't covered, you'll have to pay for the replacement.  I just want you to know what to expect when you walk in the store."
    This is the same store I had gone to before where they had replaced it without question, I just wanted to try and line everything up before making the trip and having to explain it all when I arrived.  I just wish they'd have a plan set out rather than it being up to individual employees.
    What can I do to fix this screen?  I got this computer based off all the video and photo editing I do and notice it instantly.
    Side note, this isn't the same machine that did it before either.  When I got my computer back from repair, they had forgotten to plug in the part that has the backlit keyboard.  Then when that was fixed, the right side USB didn't function.
    The Macbook also had image "ghosting" or retention issues.   I hear that can be fixed via software though rather than being just hardware? I don't notice that as much as the little dent however. My display is LP154WT1-SJA1.

    I have a MacBook Pro (Retina, 13-inch, Late 2013) and just noticed this today in a similar location - from center, mine is about two inches right and one inch up.  I thought it was a dead pixel after cleaning it and then realized it was a little dent.  The location, when the notebook is closed, corresponds to the flat area between the Command key and Trackpad.
    I take very good care of my MacBook and there are certainly no rocks on my keyboard when I close the lid!  The screen stands off the keyboard when closed due to the raised trim so this should not have been the cause.  I can't think of any other way this might have happened in my situation, though I guess anything is possible.
    The effects of this dent are quite visible now in certain circumstances - on a dark background it looks like a little clump of stuck, lit pixels and on a light background it looks like a clump of dead pixels.  Too bad, since I bought this, my first Mac, partly for its amazing screen.

  • Ghosting (burn-in) on MacBook Pro (Retina, Mid 2012) after installing OS X Yosemite

    Has anyone started noticing ghosting (burn-in) on your laptop screen after installing OS X Yosemite ?
    I'm using MacBook Pro (Retina, Mid 2012).

    Hi,
    I may have noticed the same thing, (Should I be concerned about colors behind grey login screen at startup?). I called apple support and it appears that the screen background is "slightly visible" after the update. You can change your background and see if your ghosting image moves accordingly. The white bleed through in my images, happens to be from Earthdesk which displays a map as a background. You might be seeing a similar effect.
