How to fix a loose screen

The screen of my PowerBook has a small amount of play (about 3/4") in its forward and back movement when in the open position. Is there a why that I can fix this on my own? Thank you for your help.

Dear Bennyb,
I had a "loose screen" due to a broken hinge. I glued it to the center bar only
with marine epoxy back and front. This bought me another 6 months. If you want details for fixing it the proper way try:

Good luck

  • Any advice on how to fix a white screen?

    Within about 30 seconds of powering up cold the screen goes white. The computer seems to be working. I can eject a CD for example. On repeating the power up the screen may show a brief flicker of an image but then reverts to white. I tried resetting Pram, I also tried booting up from system CD. I then tried opening the Imac, cleaning it and pressing on the connectors in case a connector might be loose. Followed instructions from discussion board from someone who fixed a pink screen. However, in my case after putting the Imac back together the same white screen problem exists.
    Buy hey. my computer is clean even if I can't use it or get files off it.
    Any advice on what might be the problem?

    Perhaps your current projects contain some element that is tripping up the PDF playback.
    I would suggest you do some testing using the process of elimination method to narrow down why the current projects are not working in PDF.
    First create a new blank project with a few ordinary screen objects, publish to PDF and then test to ensure that there's nothing wrong with your Captivate installation per se.  If those work, then try the methodolody outlined in this post to hide slides until you find the reason:

    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Restore from backup. See:                                 
    iOS: How to back up                                                                
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.             
    If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

  • How to fix my iphone screen because it blacked out and it still works

    how can i fix my iphone screen .
    It blacked out but my phone still work help!!!!

    Hi zhamond,
    If your screen is black but the phone appears to still be responding, you may have inadvertently activated a feature known as Screen Curtains (part of the Accessibility functions). You may find the following information from the iOS manual helpful (pg 126):
    Turn the screen curtain on or off. Triple-tap with three fingers. When the screen curtain is on, the screen contents are active even though the display is turned off.

  • How to fix a grey screen

    How do I fix a Gray screen on a MacBook Pro, so that I can finally start up my Laptop?

    Reinstall Lion, Mountain Lion, or Mavericks without erasing drive
    Boot to the Recovery HD:
    Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
    Repair
    When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list.  In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive.  If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported then click on the Repair Permissions button. When the process is completed, then quit DU and return to the main menu.
    Reinstall Mountain Lion or Mavericks
    OS X Mavericks- Reinstall OS X
    OS X Mountain Lion- Reinstall OS X
    OS X Lion- Reinstall Mac OS X
         Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet
                     if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.

  • How to fix intermittent blue screen of death?

    This is a 15" MacBook Pro that came loaded with 10.6.7. 2GHz Intel Core i7, 4GB 1333 MHz DDR3. Getting a blue screen on startup. Sometimes (1/10 times) it will boot okay. Cannot startup on the DVD (holding down the C key). Just will not work. Verified the DVD drive does work as I was able to get the hardware test to work on the other DVD (hold down the D key). Tried using an external drive with same failure. It is currently up and running. I ran the Verify Disk and it did not find any issues. Then I ran Verify Disk Permissions and it did find some problems with usr/lib/libruby.2.0... and usr/lib/libruby.dyllb.  Few other issues with Safari, Printers and iBook.app. It is repairing permissions as I type. I fear the issue will not be resolved by this. I have a Time Machine backup on a USB drive. That's all I can think of to write. Any suggestions on how to cure the blue screen issue on startup?

    If you can't boot from the install disc in order to reinstall OS X, take your Mac to Apple Store >  Apple - Find Locations

  • How to fix the Blue Screen of Death for iPhone 5S?

    I have an iPhone 5S and I never got water on it, dropped it, or inflicted any kind of damage upon it. But one day when I turned it on it kept getting this blue screen and then restarting CONSTANTLY. This is referred to as the Blue Screen of Death (BSOD). Does anyone know how to actually fix this problem besides just restoring the phone (I already tried that.)

    Hi ..
    If you restored the iPhone to factory settings and it still won't startup correctly, make a reservation at a Genius Bar.

  • How to fix a cracked screen

    can i get the screen fixed at a verizon store or thru apple

    If you do not have insurance through Verizon, I would go through Apple or through a third party small iphone fix shop which will give you a slightly better price. With Apple, you are getting assured OEM parts and standing behind the repair.
    Through Apple costs $109 for iPhone 6 and $129 for other iPhones, including iPhone 6 Plus.
