Broken Screen On Macbook Pro

When going to close my macbook pro the screen just broke, I placed my finger on the screen to close it and my finger literally made a hole in the screen and cracked it. I know this could be accidental damage, but is there some manufacture problem in it being so dainty and easily brekable? Would they fix it with the one year warrenty? Thank you!

Broken screen of MacBook Pro (Retina, 15-inch, Late 2013). Where I can find the part?

I have a broken screen for MacBook Pro (Retina, 15-inch, Late 2013) and I cannot find a replacement. Where I can find the screen? I will install myself. Thanks

Apple does not sell replacement parts, any you find will be third-party knockoffs. Take your Retina to an Apple store genius bar and have the techs tell you what needs to be done. New Retina screens are not cheap, they normally replace the entire lid as a unit.

A0020 model of screen in Macbook Pro Retina 13' (Late 2013)

A0020 model of screen in Macbook Pro Retina 13'. Anyone know who is the manufacturer of this screen? I've tried to find it on the internet, but it's seems that nobody know. I'm worried a little bit about that, because I didn't knew about the problem with the LG displays in Mac. In case that it's LG, there is some instructions how to prevent screen degradation?

Go step by step and test.

Changing the screen ? Macbook pro 2006/2008

Hi all !
I need to buy a new mac laptop, but infortunately, I can't use the LED screens (yes, I know, it's a pity - it gives me serious headaches, and no one computer builder seems to take these kinds of problem in consideration), so I can "only" think about the last generation of macs laptops without LED-backlight screens, the Macbook pro 2006/early 2007.
But I was wondering something : if I can find a later one, before the unibody generation, like the 2008 one, 15", (with a LED-baclight), and find a Macbook pro 2006 non-LED-backlight screen, 15", will it be possible to change the LED screen to the non one, and so giving to the 2008 computer a non-led technology, or will it be some incompatibilities at some points ?
Thank you for your answer,
Rergards,
T.

Thank you for your answer, but yes, I did. And even if it's not soooo fast on a anti-glare LED one, the headache come anyway after a while.
I also have used special calibration software for this kind of problem (the one with sunglasses icon). Honestly, it gives me maybe half an hour more of work before headache. But a 3 days migraina (or migraine, too late to know the right writing) for 1h30 of work on a LED-screen is not something I can handle every day.
The fact is that I have to work also at other places than home, or wandering ones. So, that's why I wonder if it's possible to change displays, and ask the wonderful Apple community. :-)
Thank you for your answer,
T.

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.

Screen Failure - Macbook Pro 17 inch (2.16 ghz)

Hi!
About 7 months ago the LCD screen on my 17 inch MacBook Pro (2.16ghz) started to do odd things, such as: display odd shapes in the lower 3/4 with lines and colors that changed according to whatever image was currently trying to be displayed. Initially, the screen would correct itself, however this is no longer the case. (I will admit, I lightly tapped the corner of the display, which did help for a time)
The screen, still the same lower 3/4 of the entire screen, malfunctions after any jostling for an extended amount of time. When stationary for a day or so, the screen will correct itself, and is in fact working at this time, and is also connected to an external monitor.
Unforunately, this completely defeats the purpose of having a laptop as it cannot be used on the go...
In my opinion, this does not sound as though the screen is broken, as it is displaying a flawless image right now, but is more than likely a problem with one of the cables running from the logic board to the LCD.
Last week I replaced the Display Cable and the problem persists exactly as it did before. Are there any other parts I should try replacing that are cheap? I do not have $300+ to replace the entire LCD.
Here is a picture I took of the problem:

How much to fix a dead screen on macbook pro

So, my friend's family all have macs, and love them, But thursday thier macbook pro screen died, they can still hear the computer running, but the screen is just black, as if it is turned off. So they went out and just bought a new one. It is at least 6 years old, I do not know any model numbers or anything. I am curious in buying it from them, and fixing it, to play with, and learn how macs work, since all I have ever used is windows (Except Ipads and Ipods), since Imacs, and macbooks cost over $1000. I was wondering about how much it would cost to fix it, if anyone has an idea. Also, if it costs too much to fix it, is it possible to hook up an ext

Take the broken computer to an Apple Store for a free diagnostic test. Ask the repair tech how much it would cost to fix. No one here can tell you because we don't know what is wrong with the computer.

Black screen on MacBook Pro Retina Display after installing Moutain Lion. Need Help!

My macbook pro (retina) screen went black after I installed Mountain Lion.
I got a HDMI cable to another monitor and the image worked nicely there.
But i cant get it back on my MacBook Pro! I tried taking out the HDMI cable, restarting, searching on settings configs..
What should I do?
Are there any drivers i should install to get image back on my MacBook Pro Retina Display?
Has this happened to anyone else?
Thanks in advance for all the help.

That helped me finding other people with similar problems.
But there is a major difference!
-They have a black screen after they login.
-My screen is black NOW! And I'm only using my BRAND NEW rmbp with the HDMI cable to my TV!
This isnt good at all and I would like to solve it asap..
I tried reinstalling Mountain Lion, taking out the hdmi cable and rebooting many times.
Until now, nothing!
Is my screen broken or maybe my video card has some problems?
I hope not! I just traveled from the US to Brazil and I dont want to search for an Apple Store here.
Any tips or ideas are welcome, thank you.

How much is it to replace cracked screen of macbook pro retina display?

I stepped on the corner of my macbook pro 13" retina display and the screen has cracked and there is a black square in the corner where the screen is broken. I was wondering from others who have had the same experience how much is it to have the screen fixed in the UK?
Thanks

At this time just the Apple stores in the US are doing in-store repairs on iPhone 5-series...the screen is $149. You will have to contact the Apple store there and see if they're doing repairs yet.

Display assembly cracked/broken on my macbook pro

The metal that aparently connects the display to the clamshell hinge on my Macbook Pro 15" (late 2008) has broken after a fall of about 1 foot from a coffee table. The display still works, as does the computer in general. Does anyone have any experience in this area? I have found some directions online about how to replace the display, but am having trouble locating a replacement.

google it, http://www.powerbookmedic.com/MacBook-Pro-15-Display-LCD-Screen-p-16893.html first google hit i got, i think you can find them for even cheaper. supposedly it is not too hard to swap them your self, but i have never done it and i have no guess at your technical abilities vs what is required.

Windows 7 desktop does not fill entire screen on macbook pro 17" (mid 2010)

Hi,
First of all I apologize for posting such a long question but in order to best describe the problem I am having with my MacBook Pro, I had to mention every detail.
I recently installed windows 7 x64 home premium on my new macbook pro 17 inch (mid 2010). After successfully installing the bootcamp drivers (version 3.1) I have noticed that my screen resolution has become slightly smaller than before. There are half an inch thick black bars on the right side as well as on the top of the screen.
This problem is not limited to windows, I'm having the same problem in mac osx after the windows 7 installation. Even on the start up gray screen.
I have tried almost every trick in the book, adjusting the screen resolution from the display settings menu (which by the way are on 1920x1080), checking all the settings on the nvidia control panel, resetting the SMC, resetting the VRAM, running the hardware diagnostic test (short as well as the long one), formatting the windows partition, formatting the Mac OSX partition then performing a fresh install of both. So far, I have been frustrated with failure.
After trying my best to resolve this issue on my own, I tried my luck with apple support. The customer representative was very helpful and listened carefully as I explained the problem to him. He asked me first to check for any available updates on my mac osx as well as in win 7. I told him that I had already installed every available update in both the OS's. He then asked me to reset the SMC and after that to reset the VRAM. Even though I had already tried this, I still gave it another shot but that didn't help.
Since my MBP was still under the standard warranty, (I have also purchased the Apple Care Protection Plan) he asked me to take it to an Apple Authorized Service Provider. I took his advice and went to the nearest AASP. The Apple Engineer over there performed the same steps, adjusting screen resolution, resetting SMC and VRAM, but even he was not able to resolve this problem. He suggested that I should get my graphics cars replaced or if required upon inspection, the logic board replaced. To be very honest, I was very skeptical about his suggestion as the laptop is brand new, hardly 2 months old. How is it possible that there could be a problem with the hardware? I asked him whether it is possible to restore the firmware of the graphics card as the problem could be software related. He said that Apple have not started issuing firmware restoration CD's for the latest mid 2010 MBP's so a firmware restore won't be possible. My best bet would be to get the graphics card replaced or the whole logic board replaced.
So you see, I have been down almost every possible road which could have lead to resolving this issue but unfortunately I am stuck with it. I hope any of you could offer a different approach in order to get rid of this annoying problem.
Any help would be highly appreciated. (Trust ME!!!)

UPDATE: I just came back after a visit to the apple service provider here in New Delhi. They have replaced the logic board on my macbook pro and guess what? the situation is still the same. No difference what so ever as far as the screen resolution is concerned. I can still see those black bars in the exact same places i.e. the right hand side as well as on the top of the screen. Even the size of the black bars are still the same.
I am so upset right now. After trying my best in order to solve this problem I went to the AASP with high hopes. I was very confident that after replacing the logic board this annoying problem would go away but unfortunately that's not the case. Even the Apple Engineer was clueless on how to solve this problem.
I think I'll call apple care and speak to the customer relations regarding a replacement.
If any of you can come up with a solution to this problem please let me know.
I'm all ears!!!

After upgrading to Yosemite, I am unable to share screen with Macbook Pro

After upgrading to Yosemite 10.10 on a 2008 MacBook Pro I am unable to "Share Screen" using my authorized user account. It worked fine before I upgraded to Yosemite.
I can access "Share Screen" by "requesting permission", but of course this doesn't work unless I am sitting right by the MacBook Pro to give myself permission, which defeats my original purpose for using "Share Screen".
I attempted to add another authorized "Share Screen" user account, but was unable to access the list of add "Groups and Users" on the host MacBook Pro from the "Share Screen" dialog box. The dialog box pops up, when I press "+" to add another user, but the list of users fails to appear. I assume the list of authorized users for screen share has somehow become corrupt.
All other ways to access "sharing user" accounts appear to be working properly. I can add and remove other "sharing users" without problems. For example, I can add a new authorized "file share" user and share files without problems.
I ran Disk Utility in Recovery Mode and normal mode and corrected all errors, and user permissions on both machines. I also ran "resetpassword" from Terminal in Recovery Mode and "reset" user permissions. I am not an experienced Terminal or Recovery Mode user though.
I also tried turning the Firewall off, to no avail.
I am attempting to access "Screen Share" on the MacBook Pro via a Macbook Air 13" manufactured mid 2013 also with Yosemite 10.10, however, I also attempted with an older MacBook Air which experiences the same problem.

Thanks for the idea but it did not work, I do not know why it is asking me for a password which I never needed before for a guest to use the computer? I have tried everything and I do not know which password it wants? I do not see any option for a password for the guest account, to create one or delete one or modify it? Maybe this bug\problem will be addressed in a future update?

Black Screen on MacBook Pro Early 2008

Hey guys,
i have a problem. My MacBook Pro Early 2008 doesnt boot anymore. If i press the power button the screen remains black and the hdd spins a few seconds and you can hear the superdrive make a short noise. But nothing more happens.
I know from the nVidia 8600m GT issue and i even have the modelnumber A1260 but the apple reseller told me that if there comes no start sound , it is not that problem. My question is: is it possible that the (probably) defect 8600m gt chip on my logicboard has caused a defect of the whole logicboard ? I heard from a guy whos board was repaired for free but its PowerManagment Unit on the logicboard was defect but the Technical guy told him , that it was caused by the nvdia chip and so it was repaired for free. How can i find out if my chip was the reason for the defect ?
Iam not a native speaker and i hope you can understand what iam trying to say iam happy for every correction and help.
greets
max

"How can i find out if my chip was the reason for the defect ?"
By having it examined by a certified Apple technician. If necessary, show the tech the KB Article: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2377 MacBook Pro: Distorted video or no video issues
"apple reseller told me that if there comes *no start sound* , it is not that problem."
You do not have a start sound?
Have you tried starting up from your install DVD?
If you have AppleCare, strongly suggest that you contact them first.
