Have to squeeze display

I have to squeeze the display bezel of my Macbook at the upper right to get the display to show correctly, otherwise it goes gray. I know its out of warranty, but is there anything that can be done to fix it?
Thanks
Don

hmm. A quick fix that springs to mind is to use a clothes peg to put pressure on the area you need to, but be carefull it doesnt slip onto the screen itself as that might do more damage. There would either be a loose connection or damaged screen at the bottom of this problem, either way you should either invest in an external display, or start looking on ebay for replacement screens.

I have an Retina display MacBook Pro with HMDI out port. I also have an HDMI to Component cable with Audio Plugs. How can I get HDMI out to work with this cable when plugged into the Component and Audio ports on my TV?

Will not work. To my knowledge, dual converting like that isn't supported. The Mac must detect the connected video output device and that sort of info cannot be done across an analog component uni-directional connection.

That's only for the iPhone 5. On the 4 and 4S, they can repair the back glass in store for $30. They will not replace the display on a 4 or 4S. They must replace the entire phone. Replacing the display on them requires disassembling the entire phone, which they will not do in store.

I have the mini display port cable to hdmi. When I connect I can get audio but on the video I get the display auro screen and can't get my actual display to show as that is not what shows on my display. How can I fix this?

System Preferences>Displays
There is a little white bar. When you have your TV connected, move the white bar to the other display. Your main desktop is now the TV screen

Why does the Retina Screen on MBPR2013 make a Weird Flash when I have a External Display via HDMI hooked up?

I just bought a new 2013 early MACBOOK PRO RETINA. When i have an external Display hooked up via the HDMI port, I noitce when I wake the computer UP it has a Different type OF QUICK FLASH that comes up than when there is nothing hooked up so I don't know if that makes sense to anyone, but its very disturbing to me, it makes me wonder if there is something wrong with the HDMI PORT ????? Has anyone else experienced this or knows if this is NORMAL behavior of the new RETINA displays or the HDMI port makes it FLASH weird upon WAKE UP??? I have unplugged the HDMI and when I do the SCREEN comes up normally it just blinks on. But when HDMI is used its light lightening stike. Don't know how else to explain it, maybe i need to do a video and Post a video.

One more disturbing thing. When the screen on my MBP goes black and I check the system preferences for "Displays", the MacBook Pro display is not presented as an existing display. Only the still-functioning Apple 20" Cinema Display.
Where did it go??

I am recording with Logic Pro X, using my Yamaha XS8 keyboard as a Midi controller. I also have a Thunderbolt Display. Every time I play and release a note on the keyboard, the Thunderbolt Display speaker emits a doink sound. How do I get it to stop?

I am recording with Logic Pro X, using my Yamaha XS8 keyboard as a Midi controller. I also have a Thunderbolt Display. Every time I play and release a note on the keyboard, the Thunderbolt Display speaker emits a doink sound. What is causing it and how do I get it to stop? My sound is running through the Saffire Pro 40 Interface (Focusrite) into external speakers with powered amps.
Also, When I record I am hearing little pops in the system. I have checked all of my meters and they are not clipping. What is causing it and how do I get it to stop?

Pancenter,
Thanks for the response, but I do not have a midi interface. I am using a midi to usb connector cable, thus bypassing the need for a Midi interface.
The Mac reads the USB cable as a midi device, but not the keyboard that I am trying to use as a controller. I have tried it with my korg sp 300 and with my Nord Electro 2.
Thoughts?
Thanks,
Tristan
Tristan...
This is what you have, correct?
http://www.alesis.com/usbmidicable
This from Alesis..
"The AudioLink Series USB cable receives and outputs MIDI signal thanks to its internal interface. The USB-MIDI Cable connects plug-and-play to your Mac or PC for an all-in-one USB-MIDI solution."
Notice, -internal interface-. What you have is a simple USB MIDI Interface. Most MIDI interfaces are USB.
My point is (was), MIDI OUT of the Korg goes to the connector marked MIDI IN on the Alesis, those new to MIDI often get this wrong.

I have an Apple Powerbook G4, and my monitor doesn't function. I have an external display Monitor, however it's stuck in extended screen mode. How do I get it to mirror or duplicate the display without use of the on-board?

As i had said, I have an Apple Powerbook G4, and my monitor doesn't function. I have an external display Monitor, however it's stuck in extended screen mode. How do I get it to mirror or duplicate the display without use of the on-board? Is there a Fn key combo i'm missing or is the issue more serious then i realize? any and all help and hints would be greatly apprichiated, thanks in advance.

The PowerBooks have an F-key that toggles mirrored and extended mode. My PB is loaned out right now but I think it was f7. The keycap has an icon on two overlapping rectangles, as I recall.
EDIT: Yes! Found a pdf of the PB manual it shows F7 is the toggle:

I was trying to move my photos from the iPhoto library to an external hard drive. I now have a desktop display of thousands of cascading photos. How do I remove them from my desktop screen?

Strangely enough we can not see you so it really helps if you share with use exactly what you have, exactly what you did and details about the problem
what version of iPhoto and of the OS? What exact steps did you do? where are you seeing these "thousands of cascading photos" now and using what software and what exactly did you want to accomplish
The correct way to move your iphoto library to an external drive is to verify the drive is formatted Mac OS extended (journal) and then drag the iphotl library intact as a single entity to is
The correct way to move some or all of your photos is to select them in iphoto and export 9file menu ==> export -- https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-4921 ) to the external drive

Do I have a mini display port?

Hello - would anyone be able to confirm if I have a mini display port? I think I only have Thunderbolt but am really not sure, am clearly quite silly!
Would appreciate help. I have an iMac which I bought in Sept 2011 and it uses Mac OS X......but you will already know this. Oh, and it is 21"
Thanks

Okay - I have a feeling that the mini display and thunderbolt port are the same??

How Can I have the MB display (1280X800) and a 1440 x 900 ext not in miror

How Can I have the MB display (1280X800) and a 1440 x 900 ext not in miror mode ???
I have a Lenovo external display :
H19-inch (483-mm) viewable image size
Optimum resolution: 1440 x 900
Tilt stand for viewing comfort adjustments
16 x 10 aspect ratio
Analog attachment

I just bought a wide screen display that also uses 1440 X900 resolution. In mirror mode mine also only allows a maximum of 1280 X ???. I think may be a limitation of the GMA 950 graphics chip set. I never use it in mirrow mode so it doesn't bother me. I prefer extended mode. That way I can keep more windows open and visible.
I use the question mars because on mine I can use 1280 X any of the resolutions that go with it.

After I have download BIOS DISPLAY; DATED 02-10-2010, can not drag pictures or documents in CD/DVD

I might have downloaded BIOS DISPLAY twice by mistake, since then I can not drag a picture in CD/DVD after inserted the disk. When I try to drag the picture, the computer is asking me "insert a writable disk," and the disk comes out before I paste the documents or pictures. Please help. I can not save anything right now.

MacBook Air looks like a "vintage" laptop with that horrible screen frame.

Apple may consider your suggestion if you suggest it to Apple directly.
