I accidentally dropped my macbook air, and the screen cracked. and there is purple liquid on the crack

There is some purple liquid on the crack, this happened to me once already but i dont want to fix it this time? Do i have to fix it? or just leave it?

thats the LIQUID of LCD, as meant of course liquid crystal display.
You cannot fix a cracked LCD, once cracked, theyre destroyed.
Contact Apple for appt. for replacing your LCD display

    MacBook Pro (15-inch, Mid 2010): Intermittent black screen or loss of video

  • Images in the full screen lightbox are not centered horizontally on the screen. Is there a way to center the images?

    I have tried it in different screen sizes but teh result is all same. Horizontally images are slightly on the right. How can I center the images?

    Hi,
    Thanks for your answer. It is ok when using the lightbox without full screen option. When I use the fullscreen option, the container of the image is centered but the image in the container is not. I do center everything but when it comes to full scren there is nothing like centering.
    Here is what happens when I view in the browser:

  • Restoring a new mac from a backup can i only install some programs and files? Dont think there is enough memorie on the mac air

    I might be buying a new macbook air to go traveling with.. i have a macbook pro already and want to restore from the backup onto the new macbook Air but am not sure if there is enough memorie on the air... Can i restore from the back up and only put on certain files and programs.. I only really want my photoshop and dont have the serial code anymore..

    When using Migration Assistant or Setup Assistant you can only choose all or none of the Applications. You have a little more flexibility about the files in your account(s).
    What I did when I had to migrate from my MBP to the MBA was to use SuperDuper! to create a clone backup of my MBP. Then I deleted the programs and files (mostly music and video) I didn't intend to put on the MBA. Then when the MBA arrived I used Setup Assistant to migrate everything.

    I just bought the new MacBook Air a few days ago and my Internet connection is so slow. My iPhone's connection works fine when connected to the wifi but the MacBook connects for a few seconds then drops completely. What do I do? I tried connecting it to my phone's hotspot and it works perfectly. I'm a new Mac user so I have no idea what to do. I have Comcast xfinity cable and Internet. Thanks for the help.

  • I had a case that I drop little juice  over my macbook air, I dried it immediately and it keep  working fine, as this happen while I am traveling I kept working on it for around two week, it was working fine except that the few key became sticky.

    I had a case that I drop little juice  over my macbook air, I dried it immediately and it keep  working fine, as this happen while I am traveling I kept working on it for around two week, it was working fine except that the few key became sticky.
    When I back to Jordan I sent it to the authorized support center “ Multivision” in Amman and asked them to help in cleaning the keyboard as it still sticky and I explained to them that the issue and I clarified that all are working fine.
    For a two days they didn’t back to me and they answered that they are still checking it, and then after they just called me saying that my macbook is damaged and not working and its better for me to buy a new one!!!
    They say that the liquid damaged the main board! I explained to them that this can’t be as it was working fine when I delivered it to them and I didn’t ask them to open it I told them to help in cleaning the keyboard!
    I am complaining about this support behavior and they were not cooperative nether polite in communicating.
    I am not convinced that the liquid damaged my macbook and I think that the staff at “Multivision” are not qualified and did something wrong to damage my macbook!
    I need you help to investigate this issue and have a feedback.

    Get the new keyboard at eBay and replace by yourself may be cheaper way, though you're required higher skill and well know about MacBook Air.

  • I have a brand new MacBook Air 11 inch, 4gb RAM and 256 gb SSD where the screen flickered abnormally and got dead all of a sudden while uploading a photograph in FB. Can anybody help?

    I have a new MacBook Air 11 inch, 4gb RAM, 256 SSD and use Mavericks OS. It is still under waranty period.
    Just few days ago while I was uploading a photograph in facebook, the screen started flickering abnoromally. I tried using the escape button but nothing was working so switched off by pressing the power button.
    After few minutes I tried to switch it on but my system never waked up. Called up the Apple Support, did SMC and PRAM but nothing worked. Then I was advised to take it to Apple's authorised service centre.
    At the service centre the engineers diagnoised and then said that the MLB/mother board needs to be replaced. Had waited for six-long days and today they had replaced the MLB/mother board. Now, the system came to life but nothing has booted. The screen goes white and a '?' question mark icon keeps on flickering.
    After thoroughly diagnoising it the engineer said that now the problem is with the SSD and the worse thing is all my important documents and photographs etc are no more there. And I don't have a backup of the same!
    While Apple Support contact centre is assuring they would replace any other parts if found faulty, but I feel differently. First, the MLB/mother board was changed now they say it is SSD problem - so if the SSD too is replaced there are possibilities of more faults coming up. All I can see and feel that this particular machine has turned out to be architectually deffective that calls for immediate replacement.
    Right now I am using a friend's windows pc to write this mail.
    Feeling completely miserable - all my expectatations gone after investing in such an expensive machine, loss of all my data, wastage of time and energy and to top it all affecting my daily work.
    Can anybody please advise what shall I do?

    Take the system to an Apple store to be fixed or replaced as the one you have has defective hardware.

I am currently on Snow Leopard 10.6.8 and my macbook Air 1.1 will not go up to Mountain Lion. The Lion software update 10.7 is no longer available from the store or downloads.
    Where do I get this?
    It was only released a couple of months ago.
    I really feel disinfranchised already by not being able to upgrade and keep up with other software needs but to not allow me to update to my full capacity is really ridiculous.

    I purchased a Macbook Air 11" in January 2011. It has one key on the keyboard which sticks making an irritating clicking sound that I would like to get fixed. I took it into my local iStore but they were not at all encouraging, saying they doubt that Apple warranty will cover something like this, and also that the whole keyboard would have to be replaced as they don't do individual key repairs.
    This is very unreasonable to me. Firstly, the keyboard does work (is not actually broken) although the intermittent clicking sound of a single key is very irritating to me and I expect more from an Apple product than a flawed keyboard.
    Any thoughts, tips and insight on this greatly appreciated.

    Just wanted to conclude by saying that I did go to an Apple store and after supplying proof of purchase and verifying the warranty etc, I had my MacBook checked out by one of the technicians who (after finding that my machine was immaculate bar the sticky keyboard of course) they replaced the entire keyboard within a week.
    I was so happy with the helpful and prompt service and am now so happy with my new silent keyboard!
    Also wanted to add that the young guy who told me at the iStore that he doubted Apple would support this and guessed Apple likely say it was due to user damage was being a tool, and he was obviously assuming  that I had done something wrong to break my keyboard.
    This was my first Mac purchase and I was delighted to find that the support is genuine and not just a rumor... I have since gone on to purchase an iPad2 will probably buy the iMac too once my trusty PC needs replacing. I was never a PC hater and got on well with windows, and was actually reluctant to make the change - but so far so good :)
    Thanks for all the help!

    I reinstalled operating system software on my MacBook Air (Yosemite 10.10.3) and tried reinstalling Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro.  I was able to install the software into my Applications folder but I was unable to enter the serial number or go any further with the installation.  When I click on the Adobe Acrobat icon in the Applications folder, nothing happens.

    Hi Tom,
    kindly check the System requirements | Acrobat family of products—older versions (XI, X, 9)
    For serial number message try: 
    Error "Invalid serial number" | Acrobat 9 | CS4

  • I have a new Macbook Air 2012, Apple TV 2 and I have tried wired and wireless connections both result in stuttering during video airplay to the ATV2.

    I have a new Macbook Air 2012, Apple TV 2 and I have tried wired and wireless connections both still result in stuttering during video airplay to the ATV2.
    I have even bought a new Airport Extreme Router just to confirm it is not the router and it still didn't help.
    I have brought all items in the same room with wired connections and still same issue.
    I was thinking maybe ATV 3 might help since it has 2 wifi antennas and faster processor.
    Have tried everything I could think of.
    This was one of the main reasons I bought a Macbook Air for this airplay feature. Very frustrated.
    Any thoughts; any other suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks

    Thanks for the suggestion.
    I also disabled Norton Firewall and restarted the Air and Now I'm able to use Air Play.
    I know that the Apple remedy said that to do that in the support article, but I totally forgot I had that enabled..
    It actually works. I can even stream to the Apple TV now through my MacBook Air.
    BTW, Go into setting under the ATV, and click on update...you'll see that there was another update avaialble for the last gen of ATV...
    It does have to restart twice..I guess once to download and and nother to apply.
