Blue line on the screen of my new Iphone4, pls help!!!

I bought one Iphone4 at London, yesterday I try to power on and find out that there is a blue line on the right of the screen. Please help me, I do not know how to post photos here. If you want to see the phenomenon, please send me email.
Another question:
Can I take it to the Apple Service Center in Netherlands for repairing? My Iphone4 was bought in London and have one year hardware warranty.

Try a soft boot......hold the power button (on the top) simultanenously with the home button (the button on the front of the phone). Hold them together until the Apple Logo appears. If the swipe to shut off bar appears, keep holding the two buttons until you see the logo. Once you see the logo, release the two buttons and the phone will reset. Settings will not be effected, but this may solve your issue.........

My iphone has blue lines down the screen

My iPhone 4 has blue lines down the screen which occasionally change colour. I've tried resetting it and restoring the settings but it is continuing to do this. please help....

To rule out a software issue, set it back to factory settings without using the latest backup.
Use iTunes to restore your iOS device to factory settings - Apple Support
If still lines on the screen, this is hardware related and the phone needs to be serviced:

Qosmio F30-117 - green and blue lines on the screen

So my F30-117 has been working well recently until I turned it on and had green and blue lines (sort of like scan lines) overlapping the screen.
I tried to install new drivers from nvidia, but that didn't work, as Vista just picked them up as unknown.
Anyone got a solution? Do you think the graphics card needs to be reseated?
Thanks in advance!

You can easy determine what the reason is for this.
Do you know how?
Just connect an external monitor to the notebook and check the picture on it.
If you have the same issue on the external monitor the reason is the graphic card and/or mainboard, if not its an internal display issue.
Check this!
Furthermore you should only use the drivers from Toshiba. The Nvidia drivers dont have an overheat protection so the graphic chip could be damaged. Its on your own risk.
So try to install the drivers from Toshiba.

I have a line across the screen of my new ipad air

I got an Ipad air for Christmas and I have noticed a thin blue line across the bottom of the screen about an inch from the bottom. Has anybody else got this.

I had exactly the same problem with my brand new iPad Air a month or so ago. I searched through these posts to see if anyone had the same problem, and found that a few people did. After seeing that it appeared to be a legitimate defect, I took it back to the Apple Store. The guy there just smiled and said "watch this"....he pulled the screen protector back, and poof, the line was gone from the iPad! Turns out that he had seen the same problem more than once at his store. Seems as though certain screen protectors can get those thin lines burned into them. Neither of us knows why, but that's what the problem was for mine. I sent an email to the screen protector manufacturer (mine was a Zagg) and the only response I got was that it must have been caused by direct sunlight "or something". They sent me a new protector, and so far all is still fine....we'll see if it happens again!

Ipod Nano 7th Generation with thin green, dark blue and light blue lines on the screen?

I have an Ipod Nano 7th Generation. It was brand new about a year ago, but roughly 5 months in the screen had a single dark blue line running down the screen, this has now developed into 4 light blue lines running horizontally and another green line running vertically.
I think it may be something to do with the pixels and the screen - something to do with the fact that they display red, green and blue colors?
I have restarted the ipod but to no avail. I have tried getting into the system settings as well but cannot seem to manage to access them.
Any help?

Take it to the Apple Store to get it fixed.

Blue line on the screen

A vertical blue line has suddenly appeared on the display of the screen it goes from the top all the way down to the dock.
Any way I can fix it?

Sounds to me as though you have a screen defect. This is a known problem, it is not unheard of, meaning you are not the only one who have experienced this.
To make sure: You are not seeing this 'blue line' on an external display your MacBook is hooked into? It is on the MacBook's screen?
Judging that you have purchased the Service Plan for your computer, it can be replaced or fixed free of charge from Apple. It doesn't sound like you have voided your warranty in any way.
Take it to your local Apple Store, and make an appointment online with an Apple Genius to have your laptop looked at and examined. From here, all the repairing mesures wll be taken to repair your laptop to full strength.
Apple - Retail - search for your local Apple store, and make an appointment.
Maybe someone else has some further insight on this topic to guide you in another direction.

HELP! my ipod has a thin blue line across the screen whenever i play videos

i got my ipod a day ago. i havent dropped it or anything and when i play a video there is a thin, blue, vertical line on my screen. is it broken or what!?

It could be a problem with the way the videos were encoded. Where did you get them from or did you encode them yourself.
If you encoded them yourself, what program did you use?

Satellite P300-150 - Blue lines across the screen

A question about my blue screen but as a computer non geek havn't a clue how to describe. Here goes.
The normal white screen of my computer has begun to appear with moving blue lines across it. However when I push my laptop screen back toward my knees the screen stabilizes and is normal.

Hello
That means if you have the display, the picture will not be display properly anymore?! Is this right?
And what you mean exactly with white screen exactly?
At the moment it sounds like that the LCD cable has a loose connection and must be replaced. Therefore you can contact an authorized service provider in you country to replace this part.

I bought a refurbished HP P2-1013W and it will show some blue lines on the screen and lock up.

I purchased this pc in April but did not take it out of the box until recently. Set it up for my parents and it keep getting the blue lines and locking up. There is no particular situation that causes it to freeze. I did the system restore to factor defaults, worked fine for a couple of days and now it is doing it again.

Hello ddolson69,
To rule out the monitor as being the issue we need to first test it on another machine. If the problem persists there we know the monitor is the cause. If the monitor works fine then we know we have the issue with the system.
Are you using an integrated video card or are you using a video card that has been added to a PCI slot?
Open the computer up check the fans and ensure all fans are working properly and that there is adequate air flow within the machine.
If it's dirty inside clean it out with a can of compressed air. Pay particular attention to the heat sink and any fans that may be attached or around the video card.

I have a 17" Macbook pro with flickering red and cyan(blue) lines across the screen. The issue disappears temporarily when I tap on the computer, and the problem does not occur when I use external display or try to screen capture the problem.

I purchased my Macbook (17") through a certified apple tecnition in August 2012, it was refurbished and the motherboard was completely replaced. I do a lot of photo editing, but I have been unable to do so because of the red vibrating lines that interrupt my screen. The issue disappears temporarily when I tap on the computer, and the problem does not occur when I use external display or try to screen capture the problem. I brought the computer back to the technition I purchased it from and he said that it was a problem with my fan, so I have two new fans but the issue is still occuring. He says he doesnt know whats wrong. Does anyone have any information on this issue?
Here is an image of the issue

I recommend having your Mac serviced by someone competent. A force sufficient to "blow apart" the fans was clearly excessive and may have damaged the display cable, as well as any number of other problems.
Dust is properly cleaned with a vacuum, preferably one designed for computer service, and they are not cheap.
Compressed air should never be used. It just blows dust everywhere, often into places where it can no longer be removed.

I've just downloaded software -now have a thin blue line on my screen? pls. help.

I have just downloaded some software...when my computer restarted, it now has a thin blue line on the screen. What's happened?

A: is it in all screens or just Chrome (unlikely)?
B: reset SMC
Shut down the computer.
Plug in the MagSafe power adapter to a power source, connecting it to the Mac if its not already connected.
On the built-in keyboard, press the (left side) Shift-Control-Option keys and the power button at the same time.
Release all the keys and the power button at the same time.
Press the power button to turn on the computer.
C: Your LCD is highly likely NOT broken rather a signal feed hardware issue in the monitor cable that travels thru the hinge from the logic board.
D: make a screenshot and verify if the screenshot shows the same or not.
E: the LED backlighting is showing thru implying, of course, that the LCD feed for that vertical line is not being fed.
Reset SMC and verify.
if same, you have either bad monitor cable or connection of same at junction with logic board.
At which point make appt. with Apple for diagnostic / service

Line on the screen of my ipod touch 4th gen. Starts left of the screen as a blue (bright backgr) or red (dark backgr) line becoming white halfway and going across screen. Any ideas/solutions?

I have an irritating line on the screen of my 4th gen ipod touch going left to right. It starts out as a blue line (with bright backgroung) or red line (with dark background). Switching backrounds will also switch the color of the line. Sometimes it stops halfway the screen. Sometimes the blue/red line becomes white somewhere halfway the screen and continuing as a white line to the other side of the screen. It mostly starts out as a normal screen and when using the blue/red line appears and when using some more the white part appears.Mostly in the beginning the line starts flickering and becomes more steady after a while.
I have searched on the internet but can only find info on some pixels acting weird (stuck/frozen/dead pixels). This is a whole line of pixels not doing what they are supposed to do.
Anyone an idea what this could be and how to solve it?
Thanks,

Did you ever fix this? My daughters is the same. Treated with tender loving care, we reset to factory and it disappeared but was back again after 2 or 3 days. Still in warranty so going to take to the genius bar, however a bit concerned that because it belongs to an 11 year old they are going to assume she's damaged it.

I repaired a cracked iphone 5c screen now I have a black screen with a vertical blue line on the left hand side of the screen. please help!!

Hi all,
Please help, I repaired an iphone 5c and have now tried two different lcd screens on it but all I get is a black screen or a black screen with a vertical blue line on the left hand side of the screen. I definitely have the cables connected properly etc and before I repaired it the phone had a cracked screen and there was a picture on it.
I have tried hard reset and nothing. I have tried connecting to iTunes but it asks me to confirm on the iPhone which I can't do as there is nothing on the display. I have tried randomly pressing all over the screen but it doesn't work. So I can't even try restoring it on iTunes.
Please help any advice will be appreciated! I successfully have repaired iphone 4's and iphone 5 before but this is the first iphone 5c.
Thanks.

Since you were successful the last two times, I'm sure you will figure it out.

My new iPhone 5 has black and white lines on the screen. It's not been damaged. I've tried turning it off but this does not solve the problem? Please help.

By far the most common problem hardware-wise seems to be scuffs on the aluminium. Yours is the first report of a faulty screen I've seen.
If you use the same Apple ID on both devices it'll sync whatever you want it to - music/apps/photos/messages/etc.
I've just switched from a Galaxy S3 to iPhone 5 (having already owned an iPad for a while) so I'm in a similar position!
