Crack in LCD, with NO accident.  Also, Muras

Apple wants me to pay another 1200 dollars to have the LCD fixed because they say it was due to accidental damage.  I closed the laptop at night at my work station as I do EVERY night and in the morning, there appeared to be a minor crack in the bottom left hand side of the screen.  I tried to have it repaired under apple care and they claimed it was accidental.  It's total ******** because there was no accident whatsoever.
On top of that, Ive only had the laptop for a few months now and it already has little white "muras" popping up all over the screen.  Ive read where people are getting their screens replaced because of this.  If I try and get the muras fixed are they going to deny me again because of the "accidental" damage?
I am on the verge of suing here, any help would be appreciated.

Sounds like accidental damage.

  • Replace a cracked non-retina iPad mini LCD with retina LCD & digitzer?

    My iPad mini screen is cracked and I am going to have it replaced by a 3rd party repair service. I am just wondering if it may be possible for me to have the current cracked non-retina LCD with a retina LCD screen and digitizer? If any of you know that this is in fact possible, reference someone you know that can do this. Thanks guys!
    ***P.S. I know- this voids my warranty. I am not interested in those types of responses

    Ah you're right... I have the A5 whereas the retina has the A7... Didn't think about that! That is why I asked. No need for the attitude. I was more wondering if it was POSSIBLE though. But hey, thanks for the response!

  • LENOVO G550 DC-T4500 Tragedy, Internal crack on LCD screen

    Well i am new to this forum and when i was looking for ‘Lenovo customer service’ on Google, i realised that there are many people in the same boat as me.
    Well i never imagined this to happen to me, but the fact is it has happened. I purchased a new ‘LENOVO G550 DC-T4500’ which is a new laptop by Lenovo at a very low price. Well i had a low budget and was thinking of getting a small netbook, but then I saw this Lenovo ad at center.com and went and purchased it from them on 11th November 2010. I got the laptop in my office and kept it there for a week. Finally after 7 days i took it home. I did not use it instantly because I had to setup many things like Microsoft office etc and just didn’t get the time to do that. Finally after 7 days I opened it up and installed Microsoft office. I used it for like 2 hours. The next day i opened the laptop and then was trying to set the internet, and after an hour the laptop screen went blank. I did not use it even for 4 complete hours. I gave it back to center.com and they asked me whether i dropped it. Well the fact is i never dropped it. It was used just like for four hours in total. I don’t have kids or pets in my house. I stay with my husband and we both are old enough to handle laptops. Well this crack was not an external crack on the screen but an internal crack on the LCD screen. Now isn’t that weird that there is no crack on the laptop but a cack developed on the LCD screen and they say that it has been dropped. Now i don’t know how to prove that i did not drop the laptop, but the real truth is that i never did anything to the laptop for it to develop that internal crack. When i returned it back to center.com i returned it with complete packing because all this time when the laptop was with me it was packed and i opened it up after 7 days and used it for 4 just hours in total.
    Center.com told us that Lenovo has rejected the warranty in this case and gave me a number for lenovo’s customer service department. I called up lenovo’s customer service department for like 4 days. Each time a different person answered the phone and gave me different answers. Some said we are looking into it. Finally they made me go crazy then finally one person called and said the same thing, he is looking into the case. After few days he sent an email and said that they can’t help and the crack cannot develop on its own and if I have to get it repaired I have to pay like almost the same amount as that of the laptop. This is ridiculous, absolutely disappointing.
    Well even if Lenovo does not help me i would like to tell all those people who are reading this, buying a laptop from Lenovo and then going through all the pain for no mistake of yours is the worst thing that can ever happen to a customer. And no matter how big this company is, but the fact is that they are not worth it. I pray this does not happen to anyone else. I felt cheated and hurt. I will never ever recommend anyone to buy a laptop from Lenovo.

    first let me say that I am in know way implying that you broke your screen but you can crack the LCD screen without causing damage to the case you can set something on it and cause a pressure crack pressure from your fingers can crack it  as for internal external it appears to be internal because the clear plastic on the outside does not crack like glass there had to be some kind of force to crack the screen they just don't brake they go out from time to time as in no video but not crack

  • Spontaneous Crack in screen with out physical damage.

    I am very discouraged to even post in this forum in the first place but none the less. Here is my situation. I purchased my Sony Xperia from a Tmobile retailer. The phone has been amazing and up until this point ive had no problems. I always have my phone in my pocket. if not its in my purse or on the charger. Today after leaving work , i retrieved my phone from my pocket to realize there was a crack in the screen. My first reaction was disbelief. How can you crack a screen with out dropping it, throwing it or inducing physcial harm to it? . My second reaction was even more disbelief. The crack is internal. If you run your fingers across the screen you can feel no crack its literally inside the phone. It looks like a peice of hair stuck on my phone. Here is my concern. I went to my local tmobile retailer who suggested since i had insurance to pay $175 deductible and then $50 for a loaner phone while my phone is fixed. Now if i would of damaged myself i would of payed this money . But i didnt damage my phone and im a single mother with bills i cant honestly be expected to dish out this type of money for an obvious defect. Then they told me to contact Sony, which i have since done and I wasnt very encouraged by the phone call. The Representive kind of gave me round about answers like . " I cant say its a known issue, but i can say were having some trouble".  Or when i asked if it could be covered under warranty. I cant say we have to make sure you havent caused any physical damage to cause the problem.  So in other words I have to pay to ship the phone back to sony , i will be with out a phone for up to 14 days for a "possibility" of them maybe covering it under warranty.  Further more, how can you say its not a known issue, I've done my fair share of research and this is obviously a common problem with this phone and its predecessing versions. So Please Sony, could you enlighten me . What are the chances that you will honor your warranty, or at least look into this issue with integrity , because from what i can see is there is alot of blame being put on the consumer. What happen to belief in the customer or customer satisfaction. I really do love this phone but i am very dissapointed at being put in this situation.

    I'm in the same situation left without a solution. My front panel just cracked by itself in my pocket. And the crack was also inside, so it was obvious that it wasn't caused by physical impact. I sent it to repair center, but of course they gave standard answer: "The damage is caused by a physical impact". But when I asked them to prove that, they didn't answer anything. And when I showed them links about the same problem which many users are confronted, they just gave me the same standard answer. For a repair they asked me $ 271. I unquestionably refused to pay $ 271 for a already $ 1000 premium phone for which damage I'm not responsible for. So they sent the phone back to my mobile operator from where I bought the phone. The phone operator also refused to meet me although I've been their client for a long time and bought 2 phones from them. Then I sent an official letter to the operator also giving them examples of other users. In the end they gave me some weird answers and didn't mention anything about the examples of other users. But, hey, they were willing to pay me $ 7.5 for moral damages. $ 7.5 for a 1000 phone for which I would have to pay another $ 271 for repair. It is laughing over the customer. Them I sent an official letter to customer protection agency and they basically gave me the same answer as my phone operator. Then I asked the expert to say something about the damage, but all tehy could tell me was that they can't prove anything. All this has lasted already about 6 months. And I can't use the phone properly because the front panel acts as a touch panel. So much of the Sony's over $ 1000 premium phone and excellent customer support. Back in the old days Sony was known for their quality products but not any more.

  • Risk Assessment link with incident/accident Log entry.

    Hi
    Nee your input for below Challenge.
    We are looking for development, which help us to link Risk Assessment with incident/accident Log entry in CBIH82.
    Scenario - We would like to add Risk Assessment option in the incident / accident log entry screen, like we standard have function for safety measure
    Thanks
    Sunil Jawalkar

    Hi Sunil,
    Are you attempting to u201Clinku201D the standard IHS Risk Assessment functionality to the Incident/Accident log?
    In my opinion there is a fundamental problem with this solution approach.  The standard IHS Risk assessment is inherently linked to a Work Area.  The intention is to identify, evaluate and control risks and hazards that are encountered within a specific work area.  This functionality supports measurement management and exposure management but does not fit well with the acute nature of the incident based risk assessment, although, a risk that is identified and addressed initially as the result of an incident may ultimately be added to the Risk Register of the Work Area where the incident occurred.      
    The best approach I have found is to enhance the incident record with a Risk Assessment tab that allows the user to identify the individual incident risks based on different risk impacts like People, Environment, Assets, Reputation, Quality and so forth based on client requirements.  Any incident could have one or more risk impacts that contribute to the overall risk rating of the incident.  Each u201Crisk impactu201D is evaluated on the clients standard risk matrix dimensions like Severity, Likely hood and so on.  In this way each risk impact has a unique risk rating.  You can then either identify one of the impacts as the main incident risk rating or have a routine that, based on logic and risk matrix, evaluates the unique risk impact ratings and determines an overall risk rating for the incident.
    Once the unique risk impacts have been evaluated, there should be the ability to reevaluate each impact based on the controls or safety measures that have been implemented.  These u201Cresidual risksu201D could be linked directly to the safety measure that addresses the risk so that the details of the control are apparent.
    I would also consider some type of status management that would indicate when the risk assessment was complete.  This could be used to enforce a risk assessment for incidents that meet predefined conditions like u201Cincident cannot be closed if it meets criteria 1, 2 and 3 and the risk assessment status is initialu201D.  The risk assessment status could also be used support reporting requirements for outstanding risk assessments and so on.
    To implement this approach, I would recommend utilizing one of the menu exits or, if possible, a custom Web Dynpro application linked via BAPI.
    Hope this helps or at least spurs some thought.
    Regards,
    Scott

  • Crack and popples with a 0204

    Hi,
    First, I'd want to apologize for my english, but I think you'll be able to understand anyway.
    I've the 0204 for a month till now or so, it's quite good to listen to the music, there is no crack or pops (just with Flash and things like that but I assume it's "normal"). But when I use it with some Midi instructions, it starts to fail. It crashes randomly after a while. It starts with cracks and pops with the sound in background then there is just nothing and I've to shut down the card (or It's also fixed for a while when I disable it for 2 seconds in the software, in this case Reaper or Ableton). I noticed that when it crashes, the processor use is freezing for some seconds (monitored in the software)
    From times to times, it also crashes randomly just listening to the music (likely when I've 2 sources of sounds at the same time) but it's less annoying.
    I've a Phenom II X4 955 and 4 Go Ocz with Avast and W7.
    I tried with a fresh W7 install and it's the same...
    Is it defect ?
    Or my Amd processor ?
    Do you have anything to make me try ?
    Thanks alot =)

    Do you have the same issue if AVAST is disabled.
    Try running DPC latency checker: [url=http://www.thesycon.de/deu/latency_check.shtml">http://www.thesycon.de/deu/latency_check.shtml[/url]

    These "streaks" appear to be area of too high frequency scanning; they can be cleared by scrolling up and/or down.

    hello, maybe that's an issue with hardware acceleration - please try [[Upgrade your graphics drivers to use hardware acceleration and WebGL|updating your graphics driver]], or in case this doesn't solve the issue or there is no new version available at the moment, disable hardware acceleration in the firefox ''menu [[Image:New Fx Menu]] > options > advanced > general''.

  • WiFi printer which can work with one cartridge also at a time (black or color) in a colour printer

    All-in-one (OfficeJet or Inkjet) WiFi printer which can work with one cartridge also at a time (black or color) in a colour printer.
    Even if colour cartridge is over, w/o replacing I can still print with black cartridge.
    Which printer is suitable.

    Since I upgraded to Firefox 19 from 18.0.2, on my Windows XP (SP3) laptop, I, too, can no longer open a new window. File-->New Window does nothing; also can no longer tear off a tab and open it in a new window (it stays where it is). Also, if I right-click on a tab and select Move to New Window, nothing happens. All of these worked fine in FF 18.0.2. All of these work fine with FF 19 on Windows 7. Only an issue on my XP laptop.
    After trying to open a new window, and not seeing the new window come up (and yes, I waited a long time), I decided to close my current window, which had multiple tabs open. Instead of just closing, it pops up the message reminding me that I'm about to close all those tabs. If I say close, and then go into the Task Manager, the Firefox application has disappeared (as expected), but the firefox (and plug-in container) processes are still running. So I have to manually kill the Firefox process to get it to quit. it's as if it thinks there is another Window open (the one I tried to open but never appeared). This happens every single time! I've restarted my laptop, and that does not resolve the problem.
    Is there a way to downgrade back to v 18.0.2 until this is fixed?

    A .exe file is a Windows executable. OS X does not run Windows programs. If you need to use .exe files then you will need to install Windows on your Mac:
    Windows on Intel Macs
    There are presently several alternatives for running Windows on Intel Macs.
    Install the Apple Boot Camp software.  Purchase Windows XP w/Service Pak2, Vista, or Windows 7.  Follow instructions in the Boot Camp documentation on installation of Boot Camp, creating Driver CD, and installing Windows.  Boot Camp enables you to boot the computer into OS X or Windows.
    Parallels Desktop for Mac and Windows XP, Vista Business, Vista Ultimate, or Windows 7.  Parallels is software virtualization that enables running Windows concurrently with OS X.
    VM Fusionand Windows XP, Vista Business, Vista Ultimate, or Windows 7.  VM Fusion is software virtualization that enables running Windows concurrently with OS X.
    CrossOver which enables running many Windows applications without having to install Windows.  The Windows applications can run concurrently with OS X.
    VirtualBox is a new Open Source freeware virtual machine such as VM Fusion and Parallels that was developed by Solaris.  It is not as fully developed for the Mac as Parallels and VM Fusion.
    Note that Parallels and VM Fusion can also run other operating systems such as Linux, Unix, OS/2, Solaris, etc.  There are performance differences between dual-boot systems and virtualization.  The latter tend to be a little slower (not much) and do not provide the video performance of the dual-boot system. See MacTech.com's Virtualization Benchmarking for comparisons of Boot Camp, Parallels, and VM Fusion. Boot Camp is only available with Leopard or Snow Leopard. Except for Crossover and a couple of similar alternatives like DarWine you must have a valid installer disc for Windows.
    You must also have an internal optical drive for installing Windows. Windows cannot be installed from an external optical drive.

  • Using a 4:3 17" LCD with a 1st gen intel MacBook

    I have 2 MacBook's that we use in the office for our sales team. They like to have them hooked up to the 17" LCDs with external mice and keyboards. The problem is that when I mirror the display it shows up on the monitor as a 16:9 display... giving me the black bars on the top and bottom of the screen... almost as if to match the resolution on the MacBook.
    The weird thing is that I have the LCD Monitor set to display 1280x1024 (4:3)... any ideas why this happens... I had it working before but not sure what the issue is. I have just recently formatted and installed Leopard fresh with all the latest updates.

    Yes, if you go into Displays preferences, you will see an Arrangement tab anytime that two or more displays are active. Under the Arrangement tab you will see miniature, rectangular representations of the screens that are running. One of them will show a small white bar across the top, which is meant to represent the menu bar. You can click on and drag the bar to the other rectangle. This will cause the real menu bar (and dock) to be on the other screen.

    You can't unlock it without losing data. It's too late for that now. You totally erase the iPad when you unlock it and you will have to start all over again. Most of your purchased content can be downloaded again.

  • I want to buy an iPad for my children for Christmas. Will they be able to play games and get on the Internet with this? Also, will they automatically be able to get on the Internet or will I have to purchase some kind of package?

    I want to buy an iPad for my children for Christmas. Will they be able to play games and get on the Internet with this? Also, will they automatically be able to get on the Internet or will I have to purchase some kind of package?

    Yes, they can play games - there are hundreds if not thousands of games available in the iTunes Store. Beware of the "free" games; many are free for the base game but charge for things like additional levels, "coins" etc. and those paid add-ons can add up quickly, to dozens or even in some cases hundreds of dollars. I'd strongly suggest you set up restrictions on the iPad to prevent your children from making unauthorized purchases. See:
    http://ipod.about.com/od/iphonehowtos/ht/Using-Iphone-Content-Restrictions.htm
    You will need an Internet provider of some sort; Apple is not a provider and so the iPad does not include a data service. You can either use a home Internet connection with a WiFi access point (aka "router") or you can get an iPad with WiFi+Cellular and sign up for a data plan with a cell carrier. WiFi through a home Internet service will probably be cheaper.
    Regards.
