How to clean glossy screen?

Whats up...
Just wondering if anyone knows how to properly clean the MacBook Pro Glossy Display. I have Iklear but afraid to use it, I dont want to scratch the screen or something...
Any suggestions?

iklear has a separate product for glossy screens, check out their website.
You may want to take your laptop and submerge it in a bath...... no please don't do that...
The other supported way is to take a microfiber cloth, dampened with water and clean that way. Your instruction manual with the computer should also have detailed instructions on cleaning the display.
Regardless, I would suggest the iKlear products for glossy screens... make sure to click on GLOSSY!!!!

  • How to clean the screen guard of iPod Touch!!!

    I've installed a screen guard on my new iPod Touch 4G So can you please tell me how to clean the finger prints put on it. Any special cloth or anything

    You probably should ask the company that made the screen guard. Otherwise, the microfiber cloth such as is commonly used to clean eyeglasses will probably work.
    Regards.

  • Advice for cleaning glossy screen?

    Hello all,
    I was debating between posting this in "Displays" so moderators, feel free to move this if you need to.
    I'm asking for any advice on what I could use to clean my laptop glossy display.
    I've seen "Laptop wipes" but wanted to see if you all have some feedback on them (or other products).
    Thanks much!

    Thank you so much for answering.
    Since I posted this, I've done a few searches on the forums and found some answers.
    I'm nervous about using paper towels because I guess I was told never to use that on my eyeglasses so figured it may have the same negative effect on my glossy screen.
    Maybe I'm wrong.
    In any case, I appreciate your taking the time to respond.

  • How To Clean Glossy Marks Off My Aluminum Macbook

    As of some days ago, I am the proud new owner of the new aluminum macbook. I am very pleased with my purchase. The only slight problem I have is with the developing glossy marks on the space bar and on the upper part of the trackpad. From the outset, I must say that I have been meticulous when it comes to keeping everything clean and in good working order; but I have noticed recently these rather garish glossy marks occurring. Can anyone give me a good method of how I might get rid of them? I've already tried iClean spray, a small quantity of water, and a good bit of elbow grease. Still, the glossy marks remain! Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    I try and accept the marks on my Mac like I accept fact that Isabella Rossellini's beauty is evolving.
    I did buy a silicone key board cover (the one made for MacAir). It semi protects it from liquid spills and I can take it off the clean it really well if need be and return it to the mac.
    The glossy bits you describe are probably oil from your hands so unless you plan to wear gloves its going to happen.
    I also own a iphone and immediately went out and bought a screen shield and rubber type case. I used it for a day and finally came to the conclusion that it ruined the beautiful lines of the iphone and I took it off and will accept the first bumps and scratches as a natural part of life.
    I will use the protective case when I am rock climbing but I now think of the protective case on the iphone like plastic covers on my grandmothers living room couch.

  • How to clean the screen?

    I wanted to see what you guys(and girls) had to say about cleaning your imac's screen. mine has a couple fingerprints on it and it drives me CRAZY cuz you can see it when the screen is displaying dark colors(like black). i dont think i can just throw some windex on it can i? lol
    thanks

    I have professionally worked on monitors in medical operating suites and such for 25 years. Some of these go for $40,000-$50,000 a pop (can you say "medical device", but I digress), and I can almost certainly guarantee two things:
    1. Alcohol and windex WILL eventually ruin the anti-glare coating of any monitor, and or cause imperfections in the screen.
    2. I have found the best cleaner to be good old H2O and a couple of soft clean lint-free rags. It is amazing how well it actually works. In fact, if you read the care instructions, most manufacturer's specify water only.
    Oh, wait, I just read Apple's guidelines and guess what? Water only!
    I have never (take that back, I did back in the day until I learned better) used any cleaner on any monitor or television set I have cleaned other than water. And yes, I am rather fussy about fingerprints so they get cleaned often.
    In addition, there is nothing better to take injection contrast, or sticky candy, off of a monitor better than warm water.
    That's my 2cents.
    Peace-

  • How to clean ipod screen

    Hi guys. I recently bought a used iPod on the internet and it works great, but my only concern are germs. It doesn't have any visible grit but I want to be sure because I don't know where it's been. Any suggestions that don't require buying an expensive cleaner? Thanks!

    From the manual
    Important handling information
    Cleaning Clean iPod touch immediately if it comes in contact with anything that may cause stains—such as dirt, ink, makeup, or lotions. To clean:
    Disconnect all cables and turn iPod touch off (press and hold the Sleep/Wake button, then slide the onscreen slider).
    Use a soft, lint-free cloth.
    Avoid getting moisture in openings.
    Don’t use cleaning products or compressed air.
    The front of iPod touch is made of glass with a fingerprint-resistant oleophobic (oil repellant) coating. This coating wears over time with normal usage. Cleaning products and abrasive materials will further diminish the coating, and may scratch the glass. Abrasive media may also scratch iPod touch.

  • How to clean the dust inside the screen of the iPod Touch?

    Hi everybody,
    lately some dust entered inside the screen of my iPod Touch.
    At first it looked like one or two pixels were gone bad, but it is just some annoying dust.
    The problem is that I cannot figure out any way to remove it.
    I tried a gentle blow from the connector hole but the result was worse.
    Any idea on how to clean the screen inside?
    I hope it is not necessary to go to an Apple Center and pay for the "cleaning service".
    Regards,
    Andrea

    It sounds safe to use
    'Falcon's® "Professional" Dust-Off® "XL" compressed-gas is the perfect product for removing dust from your color transparencies before making scans or copy slides; it's also great for removing dust from cameras, lenses, computers and other electronic equipment. Each 12 oz. disposable can comes with its own trigger value and a 4.75" nozzle extension (a red tube) that allows you to place precise bursts of compressed air just where you want it.'
    Check the directions on the back... also check the contents. Normally anything like that will inform you of contaminants harmful to delicate electrical devices.
    If its just compressed air make sure you keep the can well back from the source.. and unplug the G5 (take it somewhere you don't mind dust.. there no point doing this in situe, just for it to suck it back in again!)
    Also.. as mentioned.. keep the can upright (as the air is decompressed the can gets very cold)

  • Reinstalling and backing up my macbook. Plus, how do I clean my screen?

    Hey guys, three questions.
    I've had my macbook for 8 months, and do you think I should reinstall the OS fresh? I'm not sure if it will make the macbook perform better and quicker?
    Plus, if I was to do that -- what is the best method to backing up my hd?
    And finally, my screen is uber dirty -- any suggestions on how to clean it?
    Thanks, -- Kenny

    Caspin,
    Unless you are having specific issues (freezes, crashes, general "wonky" behavior), there should be no need to format and reinstall. If you are having problems... perhaps.
    The first requirement for backups is an external drive. Assuming that you have one, the best option (IMO) is to use the built-in utility specifically designed for backups: rsync.
    "rsync" is a command line application, so it is not the easiest thing to use. It is, however, the most powerful backup utility one could use, and it is completely free (and already built-in). If you are interested in its use, I would be happy to lend a hand.
    Regardless of the method you use to make the backup, the important item to back up is your entire HOME folder. Assuming you use it the way it was intended to be used, meaning that you keep all of your files in it, even simply copying it in the Finder to an external drive is all that is required to effective back yourself up.

  • How to upgrade my MBP glossy screen to antiglare??

    I already purchased the MBP 15 however I want to change the screen to antiglare. I know I can install an antiglare film but this hits the image.
    How to upgrade my MBP glossy screen to antiglare after I already purchased the MBP? Is it possible to do it through apple?

    That would mean replacing the top cover of hte MBP, something on the order of $500...and would have to be done by Apple or an authorized Apple repair or it will void the warranty.  You could try talking to an Apple store genius bar person and see if they would do that but it will not be cheap.

  • Glossy vs. Non-Glossy Screen - How can you tell?

    Hi,
    If someone came to you on the street with a MacBook Pro, how can you tell if he/she had a glossy or non-glossy screen? Is there something in System Preferences or something that tells you directly? Or do you have to tell by just looking?
    Thanks.

    Only way is by looking. Just look at the dislay at an angle, and if you see a reflection it's glossy.

  • How do i clean the screen of my macbook with retina display?

    how do i clean the screen of my macbook with retina display?

    To clean the screen on your MacBook, MacBook Pro, or MacBook Air, first shut down the computer and unplug the power adapter. Dampen the included cleaning cloth with just water and wipe the screen. Do not spray liquid directly onto the screen.
    Important: The bottom case of the MacBook (13-inch, Late 2009) and MacBook (13-inch, Mid 2010) uses a soft nonslip material. Use a 3M Gray Microfiber or soft dye-free, lint-free cloth to clean the bottom case.
