Backlight Chip and microphone are both unfunctional.. How is it possible the laptop have only 2,5 years old !!

Hello,
I have a problem with my MacBook pro 13,3 inch A1278 I7 2.8 GHz Late 2011.
I bought it at the end of 2011 and the Backlight Chip and Microphone are both unfunctionel (dead)...
This laptop doesn't even have three years old...
How is possible for a computer which cost almost 1500 €...
May I ask you, if it's normal ?
Do I need to change the Logic board, which is going to cost me almost 900€ or Is Apple going to help me out.
Thank you for your attention,
Frenchieee*

  • I'm new to Mac. I have an iPhone and a Mac Mini.  My original iTunes was on a Windows computer that crashed.  So, all of my iTunes Music and Movies are gone.  How do I get the movies and music from my iPhone to the new Mac Mini?

    If you still have the crashed Win computer, you may be able to recover your music and movies from the hard drive. If you have a friend with a hard drive USB connection kit and a PC, they should be able to help.  Otherwise, check locally for computer services that might do that for you (I think Best Buy Geek Squad may be able to help). If the drive itself is in good shape, it shouldn't be too expensive. 

  • I hit Forget Network and now cannot get back onto my wireless home network. All of my other computers and iphones are fine.  How do I get the network back?  It shows in my list of networks but when I use the password and try to join it says not connected.

    See if the iPad will accept the password after you restart it. It's worth a try.
    Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
    You could also try a reset as well.
    Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.

  • Ipad shows all regular Iphone inbound calls as Facetime.  I only want true FT calls to appear. I switch audio/video and it still happens.  How can I set the Ipad to only register true facetime calls rather than all inbound regular calls?  thanks

    My Ipad  will show all regular inbound calls, from Iphone, as Facetime calls.  I would like only TRUE facetime calls to appear. I have switched audio/video on Ipad but it still happens.  How can I set the Ipad to only register only true FT calls rather than all inbound calls that a re not facetime calls?  Yes, you may have to reread this twice and slowly to understand..... Thanks!

    Hi webn,
    I understand that you do not wish to see phone calls on your iPad anymore. I have an article for you with some information on accomplishing this goal:
    Connect your iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, and Mac using Continuity - Apple Support
    https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT6337
    Turn off iPhone cellular calls
    To turn off iPhone cellular calls on your iPad or iPod touch, go to Settings > FaceTime and turn off iPhone Cellular Calls.
    On your Mac, open the FaceTime app and go to FaceTime > Preferences. Click Settings and deselect the iPhone Cellular Calls option.
    Thanks for coming to the Apple Support Communities!
    Cheers,
    Braden

  • Hi Guys this morning I turn on my macbook pro 13 retina and light white smoke came off, the laptop have only 2 weeks brand new.

    Hi World just this morning I turn on my brand new macbook pro 13 just 2 weeks old and slight white smoke came off the laptop.
    Any help!!!!
    Thanks.

    Make srue you have got a backup of your files and take it to an Apple Retail Store or reseller.
    The MacBook has failed. As your MacBook is in warranty, you will probably receive a new one instead of getting it repaired

  • The genius mixes on my macbook pro do not match those on my iPod touched, I've synced many times and they are still different, how do I get the mixes from my laptop to my iPod??

    I cannot get the genius mixes on my laptop to match those on my ipod touch no matter how many time I sync.
    I'd love to be able to update the genius mixes on my ipod as they are quite old now.
    Any idea what I am doing wrong?
    All advice is appreciated !!
    Thanks,

    Is the setting to prevent deletion of the copy on the comcast server: preferences, accounts, and then uncheck "remove copy from server after receiving message"??
    That should work.
    You'd just have to forward the messages manually, one by one, as far as I know (there may be a way to script it but I'm not too keen on AppleScript).

  • I updated my iphone all my contacts and photos are gone. How can I retrieve them?

    I updated my iphone all my contacts and photos are gone. How can I retrieve them?

    Have you failed to use the device as designed?
    If using the iPhone as designed, contacts are synced with a supported application on the computer or a cloud service.  Pictures taken with the device would be copied off to the computer on a regular basis.
    If you have been using the device as designed, simply sync the content back.
    If you have not been using the device as designed, you can try restoring from the most recent backup.  However, if that does not restore them, they are gone.

  • How to design extractor can have only current Fiscal Year data.

    Dear Experts,
    I require a full upload DSO , which can have only current fiscal year data . I have created view putting there certain conditions for minimising the data size. How i can restrict it , to have only current fisacal year data for YTD reports. It would be daily uploaded.
    Should i created Data Source based on function ?
    Regards,
    Anand Mehrotra.

    while extracting the data from source you can set the filters at the info package level so that it will not extract the previous years data.
    In the data selection tab in Info package enter the current fiscal year and schedule the IP it will extract only the current year data.
    next execute the DTP to load data till DSO.
    the data is restricted in the infopackage level before entering to PSA so there is no need to write any routines in the DSO level.

  • My dock and top tool bar are both overlapping how do i return them to normal?

    My dock and top tool bar are both overlapping how do i return them to normal?

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, or by corruption of certain system caches. 
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. Note: If FileVault is enabled on some models, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
    Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and  Wi-Fi on certain iMacs. The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
    The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin. Test while in safe mode. Same problem? After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

    Try This:
    Open up the imessage app on your Imac.  Once you have it opened go to top left corner of your screen next to the apple picture and the word MESSAGES appears. Click on it then click on preferences and uncheck your husbands phone and number and or any other numbers which are checked. I had same problem this fixed it. Also if you wanted to you can open up your own Apple account, but that's not really necessary. My wife and I both share the same as you do

  • HT4628 how to reinstall Mountain Lion if ethernet and wifi are both dead

    For unknown reason my MBP network connection keep dropping on both Ethernet and WIFI after i came back from overseas. Been trying to recreate the network setting and retry, it works for a few seconds then went dead. Thinking of reinstalling OSX but, not sure how to perform it since both ethernet and wifi are both sort of dead.
    Any advise will be appreciated.

    Head to your System Preferences > Network > Advanced and delete all the network connections.
    Next head to your System Preferences > Data and Time and make sure it's correct and being updated with Apple's time server for your location.
    Reboot and check the data and time is correct (PRAM reset is in order if it's not)
    Connect via wifi and save the password in your Keychain when it asks.

    Turn off My PhotoStream in iCloud on both the iPad and the Mac. PhotoStream is what shares your photos (unless you are using iCloud Photo Library Beta, in which case, all photos uploaded are accessible from all devices signed onto the same Apple/iCloud ID).

    Without knowing what you have tried please open System Preferences - Sharing - File Sharing and select File Sharing. If you still have trouble you can call AppleCare in the morning when they re-open. You have 90 days of telephone support if you haven't already bought AppleCare.

  • I was trying to change from my iphone 4 to my new iphone 5, and i backed up my contacts onto iclould, when i restored my iphone 5 on my computer, the contacts were wiped from both devices, how do i recover the contacts?

    i was trying to change from my iphone 4 to my new iphone 5, and i backed up my contacts onto iclould, when i restored my iphone 5 on my computer, the contacts were wiped from both devices, how do i recover the contacts?

    On the iPhone tap Settings > iCloud
    Make sure Contacts is switched ON. It may take a few minutes for the data to sync via Wi-Fi.
    If you are using iCloud, there's no need to connect your iPhone to a computer via iTunes to sync your contacts.
