Found a small chip on the upper right corner of my iMac screen.  Has anyone had this repaired?  Can you tell about the experience?

Wondered about the cost and whether there were any low-cost solutions short of full glass replacement on the monitor.

Also, found many of what you need on eBay.
Just search for iMac glass.
Here are my results

It's not too expensive a part to obtain
It's a, relatively easy item for a user to remove and replace yourself, if you don't want to truck your iMac to an Apple Store.
Here's but just one video showing you how to remove the panel and how to reinstall it or another new panel.
The glass screen is held on the iMac by strong magnets that latch onto the metal frame on the back of the glass panel.

  • HT1245 Why does my caller I.D. photos show as a small thumbnail in the upper right corner and not full screen? I have used both photos I have synced and photos I have taken, yet others have full screen photo I.D.'s.

    Why does my caller I.D. photos show as a small thumbnail in the upper right corner and not full screen? I have used both photos I have synced and photos I have taken, yet others have full screen photo I.D.'s. I have looked onlime at several threads and there are no real answers as to what I need to do or am doing wrong.

    I am also having this issue.
    I've just spoken to someone in the Apple Support Centre who advised me that since the product is in beta, he is unable to assist. I wanted to find out whether someone was able to delete the data for me, or 'reset' the photos app somehow. This apparently cannot be done. He suggested I provide feedback via the feedback page, which I will do, but to be honest doesn't fill me with a lot of confidence in the issue being fixed.
    I also deactivated the service and waited the 30 days for the pictures to be deleted - this should have been completed in mid-January. Instead, my iCloud.com Photos page is now showing the photos that should have been deleted as grey squares, just as you described. I am also unable to delete these photos; every time I try, I get the same message about a server error.
    I am also unable to disable the service by enabling and then disabling it on my iPhone. Each time I have tried this it hangs on uploading for several hours, with the progress bar not moving at all. When I disable it on my iPhone, the web app remains unchanged.
    If anyone has had this issue and has managed to fix it, PLEASE share your wisdom. I am out of patience!

  • How to remove a small black window that appears on the upper right corner of my iMac and covers everything behind it every time I open iPhoto?

    Every time I open iPhoto on my iMac a small black window appears in the upper right of my desk top and covers everything behind it, including iPhoto. The window says "Blocked Plug-In". I cannot move it, delete it, force quit it, etc. I have quit iPhoto, but the black window remains. I have restarted and shut down the computer, but when I open iPhoto the black window comes back. I have right and left clicked on the black window, but I cannot get rid of it. How do I stop the black window from appearing on my screen?

    No problem

  • Hi Has anyone had this error message from iCal?  The request for account "Work" failed.  The server responded with "502" to operation CalDAVAccountRefreshQueueableOperation.

    I keep getting this message whenever i am connected to iCal which is a tad annoying.
    The request for account “Work” failed.
    The server responded with
    “502”
    to operation CalDAVAccountRefreshQueueableOperation.
    Please help!

    What I found works best is to do the following:
    Quit iCal on you
    Go to iCloud.com and sign-in
    Create an event on the calendar
    Sign-out of iCloud.com
    Relaunch iCal
    It will take a few seconds for the calender to resync, but you should see the new event pop up on the calender. After that, hopefully all is well.

  • I am having problems backing up icloud. the message says, "the last backup could not be completed."  Has anyone had this problem?

    I just purchased more icloud space and I ham having problems backing up icloud on my iphone 5.  The message says,"the last backup could not be completed."  Anyone know why this is happening.

    This may be caused by a corrupt existing backup that needs to be deleted, or by data on your device that is causing the backup to fail.  To troubleshoot these, try deleting your last iCloud backup (if you have one) by going to Settings>iCloud>Storage>Manage Storage, tap your device under Backups, then tap Delete Backup and choose Turn Off & Delete at the prompt.  Then go to Settings>iCloud>Backup and turn iCloud Backup back on and try backing up again.
    If it still won't back up, you may have an app or something in your camera roll that is causing the backup to fail.  To locate which one, go to Settings>iCloud>Storage>Manage Storage, tap the name of your device under Backups, under Backup Options tap Show All Apps, then turn them all to Off (including camera roll) and try backing up again.  If the backup is successful, then the camera roll and/or one of your apps is causing the backup to fail and you'll have to located by process of elimination. Turn the camera roll On and try backing up again.  If it succeeds, turn some of your apps to On and try backing up again.  If it succeeds again, turn some more apps to On then try again; repeat this process until it fails.  Eventually you'll be able to locate the problem app and exclude it from your backup.

    (1) Download the Windows Installer CleanUp utility installer file (msicuu2.exe) from the following Major Geeks page (use one of the links under the "DOWNLOAD LOCATIONS" thingy on the Major Geeks page):
    http://majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4459
    (2) Doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file and follow the prompts to install the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. (If you're on a Windows Vista or Windows 7 system and you get a Code 800A0046 error message when doubleclicking the msicuu2.exe file, try instead right-clicking on the msicuu2.exe file and selecting "Run as administrator".)
    (3) In your Start menu click All Programs and then click Windows Install Clean Up. The Windows Installer CleanUp utility window appears, listing software that is currently installed on your computer.
    (4) In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any iTunes entries and click "Remove", as per the following screenshot:
    (5) Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time?

    My screen keeps blowing up to giant size.  I can't get to the slide to turn it off then. Has anyone had this problem?

    It would seem you have enabled Zoom. Go to Settings>General>Accessibility>Zoom>OFF.  I would also disable Triple-click Home, again in  Settings>General>Accessibility>Triple-click Home>OFF to prevent it happening again.

  • Removing menu items in the upper right corner?

    I found some *.menu files in "System > Library > Core Services" folder that allow you to add menu items near the clock in the upper right corner of the Finder. I added some by accident just to see what they are and now I can't find a way to remove them. Does anyone know how? There is an "eject" icon and a "OS9 Startup" icon that I want to remove. There is also an American flag for the keyboard type.

    Wow, that was easy, thanks!
    Thought I was going to have to do a bunch of command line stuff.
