Has anyone else had something slip behind the screen?

First of all, I thought the displays were *at least* somewhat shielded, as to prevent little things from making their way behind/between the screen.
Anyway, when I took my MBP out of my Timbuk2 commute bag, then out of it's Radtech Powersleev yesterday, I noticed a piece of hair on the screen. Now this is not unusual for most of us, and those of us who are anal dust off the screen or whatever to remove said debris. I attempted this, only to find that it was not coming off! I look closer and see that a piece of hair made it inside my display and dropped into its current position! How the heck? Gentle attempts to "shake" this piece of hair were unsuccessful, so I assume it'd have to be taken apart to be removed, or the screen replaced.
Has anyone else had this kind of problem recently? Did Apple take care of it for you? I've never actually seen this firsthand, although a brief search through the internet brought forth varied results.

This has happened too me with an eyelash and i took it too the apple store and they said tough luck....I hate my apple store here in Milwaukee they are a bunch of jerks...'m so tempted to take the 2 hour drive to Chicago to their apple store to get better service

  • Has anyone else had a problem with the screen cracking on the S5?

    I have NOT dropped my phone, yet the screen cracked in two places. The LCD is fine.  I called Verizon, who told me to call Samsung. I called Samsung, on Verizon's advice, and was told they are aware of the problem. I can send it back to Samsung and they will repair/replace the phone, but I will be without a phone for a minimum of 7-10 days after they receive it. This, to me is unacceptable. Anyone else face the same problem? I can go through insurance and pay 99.00 for something I did not do to replace the phone! If Verizon and Samsung are aware of this problem, I strongly feel that Verizon should replace my phone(not through insurance) and send it back to Samsung!

    only $99, i thought it was closer to $175.

  • Has anyone else had a problem with the audio not keeping up with the video when switching to full screen on YouTube?

    Hi. I have a OS X Yosemite Version 10.10.1 Mac Book Air, Processor 1.86 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo.
    Has anyone else had a problem with the audio not keeping up with the video when switching to full screen on YouTube?
    The video starts out fine, but if I click on the expand icon in the lower right corner of the screen the audio won't keep up.
    Refreshing the page don't help at all. In fact, nothing seems to help once it starts.
    I did not have this problem at all using Mavericks. The problem started after installing Yosemite.
    Any way to fix it?

    Looking at the Yosemite forum, it is obvious that this is a very common issue.  You might want to post in that forum for help and advice.

  • Has anyone else had this problem with the iphone 4 dock and bumper?

    I purchased an iphone 4 dock and bumper but when ever I sit the iphone in the dock with the bumper on it won't get a sufficient enough connection to charge so I have to take the bumper off in order for it to charge.
    Has anyone else had this problem?

    Yes I am not impressed with that either. How can apple design such an accessory and then not have it compatable with another accessory of theirs!?
    The same goes for the in-car charger also. It's a good job the iphone 4 is so good, otherwise it would have been a return to Blackberry for me!

  • Has anyone else had a problem with the Artist search buttons search peramiters changing after Apples latest ipod update ? I synced my ipod touch recently and it came up with a message saying a new update was available for the ipod but might take an hour .

    Last time I synced my ipod touch it ofered me an update for the pod that could take about an hour , I did it and now it doesnt search properly . When I used the Artist tab at the bottom of my ipod before it would find every single song on the ipod by that artist (ie it searched by TRACK Artist) . Now it only find the songs by any given artist that are on Albums by that Artist (ie it searches by ALBUM Artist) What that means is it wont find any song by any Artist on a Various Artist CD . HAS ANYNOE ELSE GOT THIS PROBLEM OR A SOLUTION?

  • Has anyone else had this problem with their screen?

    This has happened to me twice, at random....................The background of the phone would go dark, and three bars approx 7 or 8 cm in width would appear running down the length of the phone.
    Background was a dark gray, the three bars were a darker gray almost black. 
    I called into Verizon just now and spoke to a CS rep and they transferred me to technical support.  They logged the problem, but I told them I didn't want to send my phone back, as they are on backorder already.
    Please let me know if you have had ANY problems or issues with your screen.  The lady in tech support said once Verizon has taken reports on any problem with -3- people, they send it onto Motorola for resolution.
    Thank you !!!!!!

    how long did your phone's screen stay looking like that?  Mine was only maybe 30 seconds and it jumped right back to normal.
    Will you please call Verizon and report the problem-they told me 2 more people and they would send to motorola for a fix.....
    The only problem I'm having now is the battery, I knew the life would be short, but give me a break......I started using my Droid X at around noon off and on and it is 2:25 here est and the battery indicator is on yellow already !!
    I installed the task killer but this is ridiculous.....
    I guess I should exchnage it because of the screen problem-I just knew the phones were on backorder and I didn't want to give it up yet, LOL......maybe the battery is defective too?  I do plan on buying an extended life battery to help out a bit.
    I bought online also. I exchanged at the store. Surprised they still had some left My battery life seemed ok.  But then again I didn't have it very long..

  • I can not get Time Machine to back up an external WD Passport 2 TB drive!  Has anyone else had this problem?  The drive is new and I was running Snow Leopard and upgraded to Lion and it still won't do it.  Time Machine backs up the internal drive fine.

    I bought 2 2TB WD Passport Drives with the intention of housing my iTunes/iPhoto libraries off my older MacBook.  I have successfully transferred the Libraries to one and am using the other one for Time Machine.  In Snow Leopard I could back up my computer to Time Machine no problem but when I did not exclude the iTunes/iPhoto drive the back up fails.  Both drives have been reformatted, permissions repaired and checked in Disk Utility and one was replaced.  I have been to the Genius Bar now 5 times.  I have tried using USB drive and FireWire.  Both drives are recognized and are working properly otherwise regardless how they are connected.  Finally yesterday the Apple store installed Lion to see if that fixed the issue and it did not.  Time Machine successfully backed up a USB Flash drive, and today I will try an older external drive.  Any ideas on what else to try??? Do I have to resort to third party software like Carbon Copy Cloned to get this done?  Any ideas why this wont work?  I am using a FireWire converter but as I said, both drives are working normally otherwise (libraries working, time machine working for the computer's hard drive.  Any ideas would be appreciated!!?

    Thanks so much but none of that helped.  It was driving me crazy because it would back up another external drive.  I just changed the name of the drive from iPhoto/iTunes Library to Media Libraries and IT WORKED!! I guess for some reason it didn't like the drive being called iPhoto or iTunes ???? I don't understand but I have tried so many solutions and exchanging things out but the name change did it????!!!
    Thank you for your help and replying to this.  Guess I made my own issue!

  • HT1933 Has anyone else had a problem with the app " Storage War$" it costs £1.99 and doesn't work???

    Hi I have been having a problem with an app I have purchased, it cost £1.99 and does not match the description
    This was a waste of time and I am outraged that Apple have not checked the game after it's reviews. However I want to get my money back as I could buy a different app with the small sum of money. This app did not clearly state that it wasn't a game to play just to watch. A review quote " I want my money back worst app ever! Every button does the same thing home, shop, my items and the actions all take you to the auction. Plus it's the same 5 pictures over and over some worth 900 some 250 just buy 250 absolute joke of a game save your money people"there are 26 others like this how many is enough for you to take action. the only reason for this app purchase was because it was an impulse buy what if there is another 27 impulse buys and it then continues
    How can I try and get that app off the AppStore and get my money back as I have not been given a receipt yet ?

        What a terrible coincidence, nick70! I can assure that most updates go smoothly. I'm sorry to hear that yours didn't. If you're unable to power your device back on, we may need to get a replacement device out to you. Please follow/DM me ( Chauncey_VZW ) with your contact information, and I'd be happy to resolve this for you! I look forward to hearing back from you.

    I rarely record automation, and when I do I never do a second pass (usually hand draw automation in) but I have had problems with Logic 7 no longer playing back automation. I've been told its fixed in Logic 8, but in the mean time here is a work around.
    Select the region where the automation is (if there is no region, create one using the pencil tool and expand it to cover all automation) and go OPTIONS menu -> TRACK AUTOMATION -> "Move current track data to region data." Now everything should play back as expected. If you want to edit the data, simply select "move current region data to track data" and edit away.
    For some reason, Logic 7 will sometimes stop reading track automation data, but I have yet to have it stop reading region automation. This is a bug, and according to other users, has been fixed in Logic 8. Hope this helps until we eventually upgrade

  • Has anyone else had problems since the latest itunes/ipod update?

    since i got my ipod and itunes updated, ive had nothing but problems with my ipod. sometimes it freezes, and when i connect it to the computer its all of a sudden corrupted. Sometimes this happens when i connect it to my computer to charge, and gets stuck on the do not disconnect screen. Sometimes ill be listening to music or watching something on my ipod and itll turn off randomly for no reason, then the apple symbol will come on as if i turned the ipod on again. Right now my ipod is frozen on the do not disconnect screen, and i have no choice but to restore it, however it wont even show up on itunes when its frozen sometimes, like right now. Has anyone else had problems since the latest ipod update?

    As i've posted in this thread:

    I've tried everything others have suggested without any luck.
    Now I'm stuck with a 300 bucks mp3 jalopy.
    My big question here is :
    why aren't we hearing from apple? why aren't they saying something like "yeah we messed things up but be patient. we are trying our best to fix it..." ?
    I was thinking to buy the macbook pro but now I'm afraid of the day things will get messy with that too.
