Aluminum Bezel Peeling Off

I recently got a new display for my MBP.  It's been working fine, however, the aluminum bezel has almost completely peeled off.  I duct taped it for the time being but I'm afraid that it isn't working and is a danger to my screen.
This is what I mean.  The left side is the worst, and the bottom right corner is peeling so badly that the entire bottom section of my border is almost off completely.
Is there anyway that I can get this fixed?  I'm sick of looking at tape.

If the repair was recent (within 6 months) and a bezel which is not something you would play with is pulling off, then either the product they used or their methods was at fault.  Either way, I would not consider 8 months (or less) to be a reasonable time for their repair to fail.  My MBP is over a year old and the bezel is still intact.

  • Problem of the anti-glare coating on 15" Macbook Pro display peeling off?

    Hi, bought my Macbook Pro 15" with Retina display about a year ago. Recently discovered the anti-glare coating peeling off, leaving ugly 'bald' spots on the screen bezel sides (thankfully, not in the main display area!). Only use the provided polishing cloth to clean the screen of any fingerprints, etc. Once in a while, I do wet the cloth with a drop or two of water to get rid of more stubborn marks. I've stopped cleaning the screen with the cloth.
    Anyone else faced the same problem? How did you resolve it?

    Same problem here with a 2013 MBP 13''.
    Seems to be common and might be covered by warranty: http://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?t=1729779

  • Macbook pro anodised peeled off.

    I have been using my macbook pro late 2011 since almost 17 months now. I started notice that there are some areas, especially on the latches, that the anodised peeled off. It is not that visible though, only same flakes and dots. While, i am well aware that aluminum anodised may peeled off (my iPhone 5 black also has the same issue), is this normal with macbook pro?

    I am not aware of any latches on a MBP.
    Pitting and discoloration can occur on the body of a MBP for users with a body chemistry allows for that phenomenon.  Unfortunate, but it happens.
    Ciao.

  • Bottom rubber feet peeling off.

    The four(4) black round rubber feet on my MBP are peeling off. I've kept them in place with some adhesive,
    but one side of them are popped out of the aluminum housing and this suck.
    Should I buy new rubber feet on eBay? Or should I pay about a hundred bucks to replace the bottom aluminum cover?
    (I'm in South Korea right now, so repairing everything is kinda costly.)

    that depends on how much you want to spend and which one would be acceptable to you.

  • Peel off hourly output value and subtract from previous hours (then write to file)

    Here is another problem I have been working with and what I have tried so far.  Right now, my current VI is writing data to an excel file at a point every second.  I would LIKE peel off a point from this datastream once every hour and subtract it from the previous hour's value and write an hourly value to an excel file (same file or different file is ok).  I was working with a guy here at my university who had some ideas to use the Elapsed time function.  I have included a screenshot of the part of the VI containing the function we were working on.  We never could get it to work quite right.  We were having some problems getting the shift registers to work (used to subtract the current hour's value from the previous hour's value).  Let me know if you have any ideas, if maybe we are on a good pathy, or maybe I should try something altogether different.  I'm just looking for a simple solution at this point.
    Thanks,
    Jeremy
    The local variable "Total Consumption" is the data stream off of the hourly values are being taken.  Currently (not shown in this screen shot), the value of "Total Consumption" is combined with the other channels into one signal that is fed into the "Write to Measurement File" VI (shown at the right).

    You have a true constant wired to your stop button for the loop, which means the loop will only run once.
    You may want to consider the positions of the previous and current indicators inside that loop.  It's not clear how you want them to function.  The previous indicator doesn't get updated until right as the elapsed time occurs.  The case structure gets executed, and you will immediately have a new previous value calculated, but you won't see that again until the end of the next hour.  Not sure if you are updating the current value in the false case as well.  Otherwise that would look like stale data for an hour.  If you are updating it in the other case, than you should move the local variable and the indicator completely out of the case structure and only pass in the wire to the subtraction function.

  • Which case WON'T peel off my GhostArmor screen protector!?

    I know there's a lot of discussion about this already, but I was wondering if anyone has advice on which free case to go with that hopefully will NOT peel off the corners of my Ghost Armor full body protector. I have tried NUMEROUS silicone cases so far, off-brands i can't remember, but from Best Buy. They all have peeled the corners off my front & back protectors!!! SO annoying since the Ghost Armor cost me about $35. I can easily replace each side for only $5 but I want to do that after I finally settle on a case. I've been going without a case, just the Ghost Armor, and have fallen in love with the sleekness of it.
    HOWEVER i did drop my phone already and actually chipped the corner a little. Not a biggie, i'm prone to doing that kind of stuff.
    I like the look of the Griffin Motif Diamonds/Smoke. I previously owned a case like this i bought from Apple in June for my 3Gs, and it's edges were so smooth, not sharp, that my screen protector never peeled. My old diamond case had smaller diamonds so it "sparkled" more, not like these big huge obvious diamonds. Leaning toward this one since I liked my old one so much, but it wasn't a Griffin. I have bought a pink silicone diamond case from best buy, and it was soooo hard and it peeled the edges right back. Also left an indent/impression of the diamond designs on the back protector. eeew.
    Also looking at the bumper, but bummed because it's only in black - then i'd have a super plain black phone. However, all i seem to need is something rubber around the edges when i drop it! LOL
    The Speck fabric/hard case is cool, but it looks a little too bulky.
    The Incase snap cases are neat looking also- and i'm thinking the snap design would be easier on protectors....?? But they're just a tad boring.
    Decisions, decisions....Any advice or thoughts are much appreciated!

    I didn't like the anti-glare one I bought from ebay, took the beauty from the screen. So I had ZAGG put on, at best buy. I was told to wait 24 hrs before putting the gel case back on and so I did... I put it back on perfectly and guess what? Within like 10 mins the corners started to get bubbles. I was so mad! Ugh so I returned it and got a refund but minus the $7.99 best buy charges to put on the protector. I was ripped off and lied to! I would like to know also which screen protector will stand a case on? I never had problems with the regular clear ones that r like a sticker.. I just wanted extra protection for my iphone 4.

  • Can the menu/forward/backward/pause be scratched/peeled off?

    to prevent scratches i usually put some packing tape on wherever need be (cell phone screens, etc)
    I was thinking of doing the same as it has done a great job for me in the past, but i don't want to be peeling off any of the clickwheel as well.
    can someone confirm that the clickwheel isn't a decal sprayon?

    OK, I'm going the applescript route. When I run the script within automator, it works fine. However, when I run the script from a menu as a service, it has no effect at all on iTunes. I must be missing something.
    Here's my script:
    tell application "iTunes"
              if player state is stopped then return
              try
                        set player position to (get player position) + (-5)
              end try

  • Whenever my Imac sleeps, my screen freezes/cursor "peels" off current screen

    Since downloading Moutain Lion (10.8.1) after my computer goes to "sleep", when I awake it, the screen is frozen.  The cursor does not operate correctly, rather it peels off the screen, revealing a screen underneath.  I have to restart to resume normal operation.  One very friendly Apple support staff had me verify disk and address permissions; it did not help.  Another seemed confused by my question and wasn't helpful.  Any ideas?

    Reinstall Lion, Mountain Lion, or Mavericks without erasing drive
    Boot to the Recovery HD:
    Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
    Repair
    When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list.  In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive.  If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported then click on the Repair Permissions button. When the process is completed, then quit DU and return to the main menu. Select Restart from the Apple menu.
    Reinstall Mountain Lion or Mavericks
    OS X Mavericks- Reinstall OS X
    OS X Mountain Lion- Reinstall OS X
    OS X Lion- Reinstall Mac OS X
         Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet

  • I got a itunes gift card and it was a peel off not a strach and some of the code peeled off, does anyone know how to redeem my code back?

    There is no way to remotely track any device that is turned off, or does not have an internet data connection.  In that case, no remote system can possible communicate with the device, nor the device send any information to any remote server.  Any device, not merely an iPhone, shares that same limitation.  Remote tracking is only possible if the device and the tracking system can talk to eachother.
    Apple does not offer any other feature because they are not a law enforcement agency.  They are bound by the same privacy laws that keep you from snooping in somebody's house just because you claim they have something of yours.
    Of course there are alternate ways to track a powered on and connected cell phone, but Apple has neither the legal nor the moral authority to do such things.  Just because something is technically possible does not mean that any big company and just go out and do them.
    Since when is it always "someone else's" fault and responsibility to deal with your lost or stolen private property?  I don't get this mentality of passing either the blame or the responsibility on to someone else.

  • If iPhone 5 peel off when I unboxing in the retail store in canada, what can I do? Can I change a new one?

    If iPhone 5 peel off when I unboxing in the retail store in canada, what can I do? Can I change a new one?

    The anodizing delamination issue is over blown .
    If you are unboxing and activating in a Roberts/Fido/Virgin/Bell or Telus store and you see existing damage certainly YOU reject it.
    The areas that appear to be subject to minor delamination are the milled edges.
    This milled edge may be vulnerable to delamination since anodizing is dye process set within the top few micron of the base metal with an electric charge.
    If you want an unlocked iPhone5 get it from Apple Retail at full retail price, as the carrier subsidized phones ”may” be Carrier/sim card locked for revenue protection reasons.
    You need to check this locally as i can not vouch for Canadian cell phone practise.

  • Iphone 5 - Black colour peeling off

    Dear All,
    I have brought an iPhone 5 black colour from Mumbai (India), few months back (Still under warannty).
    Off late I have been observing that iphone body clour is being peeled off..Overall iPhone looks ugly because of this. We can see a lot of white sopts on phone and it looks as if the phone is 2-3 years old.
    I had logged an complain with Apple support, who suggested me to show the phone to Authorized service center in Mumbai.
    Apple authorized service center in Mumbai (Rahul Commerce) kept phone my phone for a week and later infomred me that nothing can be done, this is a known fault.
    My question to readers and Apple is if this is a known defect what is the solution? Has anyone else faced similar issues and what action has been taken.
    I want to take this matter with higher ups at Apple, every penny paid should be worth it. Besides Apple is known for its perfection, which is missing here.
    Would be great if I am helped with escalation matrix - E:mails where I can write to seeking an answer in Apple.
    Thanks & Regards
    Harshal Desai

    Take it to Apple and complain to them about it.

  • Basic tween - peel off one color to reveal another color (text)

    Hi, I have a basic question. I have some type which is a brand color grey. I would like to animate something like the playhead peeling off the grey to reveal a  blue type (there brand). I'm very new to flash and was hoping could some one point me in the right direction to get this working. Can you animate masks?

    Yes, you can animate a mask, and that's probably the best method for the effect that you describe.
