Does your MBP Retina 15 have bent screen glass in the upper corners?

I have a new 15" MacBook Pro and I am trying to figure out if this is normal or not. I had an older 15 MBP Retina and it did not have this characteristic. Maybe I'm crazy, but I am more concerned about potential for issues down the road as far as dust getting behind the screen and whatnot.
Sadly I don't have a working battery for my DSLR so I cant use my Macro Lens. Using my iPhone though it seems easier to look at the reflection than it was getting it to focus and show the line.
To me it looks like the glass bent and maybe even cracked. I am guessing there's some additional coating on the user facing side and this is what's making it look less significant and holding the glass into place. If you imagine a clear piece of plastic, just think of what happens when you fold a corner and make a crease. This seems to be a similiar issue.

So now what if I tell you I spoke to a store manager and he went on the floor and looked at their display modles. He claims he saw a similiar but less noticible effect on them. My photos don't show it because the iPhone just cant focus right. There is a straight line right where the "Warping" starts. Looks like you used the smudge tool in photoshop or something like that in the reflection.

Hello Bagpus113
Check out the article below to troubleshooting issues with the sound for music and for videos. One other thing you can try is to convert the songs to a different format

Why do I have a big Q on the upper left of my screen when i go into a text?

This is driving me crazy.. Why do I have a big Q on the upper left of my screen when i go into a text message? How do I get it off? Someone sent me a picture and I noticed it was on there also?

ME TOOO!! omg it's so annoying. I have only had this happen with an iphone 4, and i noticed it started happening after I did a text msg. usually it's just a big Capital "Q", in a similar position as it would be on the keyboard. but it stays on the screen. Now it also stays there even when i go to my home page or any other screen for that matter. I recently had my phone swapped out because my home button had worn out (uh oh....less than 6 mo old too!) but even on the new phone it's doing the "Q" thing too.
mine only goes away when i reboot. grrrrr. glad im not the only one tho.

I have a ibook that i just bought off of someone . does anyone know waht i have to do to get the internet working on it ?

does anyone know waht i have to do to get the internet working on it ?

Mac OS X 10.4 (Tiger) is the newest OS you can use with it.
Mac OS X 10.4 (Tiger) Requirements
Newer versions won't work; they require faster processors and the last two require Intel processors:
Mac OS X 10.5 (Leopard) Requirements
Mac OS X 10.6 (Snow Leopard) Requirements
Mac OS X 10.7 (Lion) System Requirements
What is the hard drive capacity, and how much space remains available on it?
The iBook is going on ten years old, so if the hard drive hasn't been replaced, that may be necessary (if not now, soon). A hard drive usually lasts from three to five years.
An iBook G3 (Dual USB) uses an original AirPort Card (with the 802.11b standard). You need to make sure that your router (or wireless modem) will handle that standard if you want the internal card.
The reason it's telling you that it's up to date is because you have the last version of Mac OS X 10.3 installed. If you want Tiger, you will have to buy the installation disc(s) for it. Does it have a Combo drive or a CD-ROM drive? The reason I ask is that Mac OS X 10.4 (Tiger) usually comes on DVD, so it's much easier to install on an iBook which has a Combo drive (which will read DVDs).

The new zoom feature overlaps some of the headings. I have a screen shot of the problem but don't know how to send that to you.

I have a screen shot of the problem, I can send it to you. The first thing I tried was a zoom on your header. It looks like some things in your header were anchored to the right while others anchored to the left. When the zoom occurred they met in the middle.

Thanks, I know I'm not really a big brand (not even a brand at that) but I think you could always release as Firefox's first own brand mobile WITH the OS :)

I recently migrated to a new mac. in iphoto, some photos have a small flag on the upper left of the photo. any idea what that is?

That's called Flagging. It's a way to make a quick selection of photos. For instance if you're looking for the best shot to print you might go through the photos and flag candidates for further inspection. Then clicking on the Flagged Section on the left, you can see these selected photos together. You can remove flags by clicking on them, if you mouse over a shot you'll see the option to add a flag by clicking. This can also be done in the Photos menu.

No, you will have to replace the switch or do an out-of-warranty replacement at an Apple Store.

Are the new MBP retina haswell all Samsung screens?

I heard that the MBP haswell retinas now all have Samsung screens as opposed to some Samsung and some LG. Does anyone know if this is true?

Apple generally doesn't make the screen model's known. If you don't like your display upon purchase, and going to Apple menu -> System Preferences -> Display -> Color and System Preferences -> Universal Access doesn't make it more legible or usable for you, you can always bring it in for return/replacement within the first 14 days, and warranty issues up to one year without purchasing AppleCare for hardware related issues. 90 days for purely Apple software related issues. I recommend getting AppleCare anyway.

What you've outlined in this part of the post is all that icloud stores for you outside of the backup. If you want to restore from the icloud backup you will then have for all practical purposes a carbon restoration back to your device if you restore from the icloud backup.

Syncing your device with itunes will then enable you to remove whatever photos you wish to remove from your device deleting them with the computer and not the iphone.

How well does your MBP close?

Just got my MBP yesterday, and besides one dead pixel, and a little whine (mirror widget seems to fix just fine for now), and this closing thing I am very happy.
Whenever I close my MBP it latches fine, but the left, front side has a "sizable" gap between the screen and the primary mass of the machine. It is something I have no trouble living with because it seems to be purely superficial, but I was curious just how well the MBPs are suppose to close? All the way with no space? small gap because of spacers? bigger gap because of... crooked screen?
... I think my hard drive just mooed...
thanks

Your left latch is NOT locking in place. The latches should both lock in place. If you notice when you close the lid, looking between the display and the body, the left latch is not locking in place. Mine has the gap too, because the left latch is not catching. If you firmly close it with some pressure it WILL catch, sometimes. Both latches should lock in place by gently closing the lid. By closing the lid slowly you will see the right latch comes down and begins to attach to the magnetic bar, the left latch won't even come down to the magnetic bar. It's like the magnetic bar on the left is too deep to catch the metal latch, or too weak. Mine is going back for that reason and the whine issue.

MBP retina early 2013 cracked screen LCD

Hi, Im from argentina and I had an accident while using my MBP Retina early 2013 15 inch which ended in a LCD crack. I´ve called apple in aventura mall, miami (where I bought it) to ask them if the fact that my laptop in under warranty could help me on the screen replacement, but they told me that by no means apple would cover it. So I went ahead and asked them how much would a reparation cost me, as I could have a friend of mine taking my mbp to their store to have it fixed. BUT THEY REFUSED EVEN TO GIVE ME AN IDEA of an estimated price. This is really freaking me out, not only because of the distance but also because its a screen model (7171) which they have to replace, nothing more than that. Why cant they tell me a price in advance so that I can figure out what to do?. I saved a lot of money for this purchase, and Im a real apple customer as I have being using Macs, iPads and Iphones for many years, which makes me feel real bad about the customer service...
Have someone been through this lately??
Kind Regards,
Gon.

HI. I opened my late MBpro 15inch a week ago and heard a funny noise .Like a pop. Shortly after I noticed a crack in the LED screen. I went to a Genius Bar and they told me that the screen damage was not covered by my warranty ..I then went home and noticed that the crack had spread right across the screen. I also noticed that I would get a black screen on 2 occasions that was fixed by resetting the PRAM. I decided that I'd have to fork out the $900 to have it fixed. I went to the Apple store today and booked it in. The tech was sympathetic and said he would talk to his manager. When he returned he was apologetic and said that I would have to pay. Later today my wife picked up the product and was told that we did not have to pay as they could see that the product was faulty but not due to negligence. Good outcome.

Does your MBP make the same noise too?

Hey guys when you insert a CD or DVD into your MBP does your computer make a slight buzzing noise. I was just wondering to see if this was common or a problem. Thanks

If I understand you correctly these noises are quite normal.

Does iMovie for iPad 2 have green screen?

Does iPad 2 have green screen for iMovie?

By green screen I assume you're refering to chroma keying?
If so, then no.

My iPad 2 just stopped playing videos. The original comes with the iPad video icon opens with a blank black screen and does not repond. I have shut all apps, shut the computer down, but no good. Where to from here?

My iPad just stopped playing videos. The original app that comes with the iPad opens with a blank black screen. I have shut all apps, and the shutdown the co ad, but no effect. Where to from here?

Try searching for the name of one of your videos on the iPad's spotlight search screen - swipe your first homescreen to the right, type in it's name, and if it finds it tap on it to see if it plays.
If that doesn't work then I normally suggest closing the Videos app via the taskbar and re-opening it, and then a reset by pressing and holding both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds unilt the Apple logo should appear - but as it sounds like you've alreadt tried that, then see if the spotlight search works.
