I bought a Macbook Pro second hand and their is a line on the screen, what is the best way to fix this?

I bought a macbook pro from a cash converters store. It was online and in the description didn't mention anything about this issue. I can't really explain it very well so here is a picture.

Is there any way to fix this, if at all? I don't really know very much about macbooks and since i just got this yesterday i have no idea what caused this. Thank you very much for your help.

It's difficult to determine if your photograph shows a smudge on the exterior of the display, or if it is a display anomaly. Turn up the brightness. If the image changes it's a display problem.
You can clean the first one, but if it's the latter it is a hardware defect that will require parts, tools, labor or money to fix.

So i bought an iphone 4s second hand, and when i first turned it on i updated to the software.. it then kept restarting, i did everything, any help?

So i tried factory reseting, rebooting, everything. it didnt work, i gave up and went back to it 10 minutes later to find it working, it lasted a day without restarting, although charging it all night the battery stayed at 54% for the whole day not going down, i charged it again last night and it stayed at 54% again, about 15 minutes ago it turned off and wouldnt turn back on, so i plugged it into the charger, it came on and was 100% battery, then died again and came back on at 2% .. im continuing to charge it but it goes off and on and when it comes back on the battery % has gone up by 2% each time, can anyone tell me is a battery replacement needed?

Restore it.
Restore it as new.
If these fail, the it is likely a hardware issue.

Recently i purchased a macbook pro 2nd hand and would like to know how to remove the main user of the mac and change so it is my own with my name?

HT1199 I bought my Macbook pro in 2010 and had Snow Leopard which I upgraded when Mountain Lion was available. Now it keeps saying Mavarick is available. Is that another update? Or is that something else?

Mavericks is an upgraded System in the same way that Mountain Lion was, the difference being that it's free. You can download the installer from the Mac App Store (the system requirements are the same as for Mountain Lion so you should be OK there). I've not got it: reports suggest that it is an improvement over Mountain Lion but it has some quirks that may or may not be an issue for you. It has its own forum, so you could look there for information.

I have already bought a macbook pro in USA and I want to use it in Europe. What adapter I need for my Airport Extreme?

No power adaptor is needed as the power units are auto-switching. But you will need wall outlet adaptors such as you will find in Apple's World Travel Kit, at AAA stores, and other vendors.

If you're able to contact the previous owner, send them this link and tell them to follow the instructions.
If not, you can't activate the device but may be able to get it refunded.
Apple won't remove the lock for anyone other than the original owner(assuming they're alive.)

hi i bought a ipad mini second hand and trying to set it up i cant get in contact with the last owner to reset the icloud address

If you are trying to activate an iPad or iPhone and it is asking for a previous owners Apple ID and password, you have encountered the Activation Lock. This is a security feature that prevents thieves from setting up and using a stolen or lost iPad or iPhone. You have no alternative. You must contact the previous owner to get permission to use the device. If you cannot contact the previous owner return the device to where you bought it and get a refund. You will never be able to activate the device and no one can help you do it.

The Apple ID and Password that was Originally used to Activate the iDevice is required.
If you cannot get this information from the seller
Removing a device from a previous owner’s account
You need to return the Device for a refund, as you will not be able to re-activate it.

I purchased my macbook pro 2nd hand and then purchased Lion online thru the apple store and today when I tried to update some of the software I got the message that it was corrupt. Can anyone help me?

Did the message say what was corrupt. It is not clear from your description of "...it was corrupt" what "it" is. Sounds like the download of Lion was corrupt. Download it again. Downloaded files sometimes get corrupted due to network connection glitches or interruptions.

Hi, I need someone to help me change the login screen. The computer I have is a macbook, its second hand and probably around 3-4 years old. The previous owner had the login screen has a lego or something. Could someone please help me change this??

It sounds like a bit of a mess and what you may need is an onsite PC tech to do some maintenance on your PC.
Also, learning to properly use punctuation (particularly periods) might not be a bad idea. As it is, your post was very hard to read.
Good luck!

- Have you tried resetting the Ipod:
Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.-
- Next connect it to your computer. If iTunes sees the iPod restore the iPod, First restore from backup and if problem persists restore to factory defaults/new iPod.
- If iTunes does not see the iPod first try placing the iPod in recovery mode. If not seen try placing it in DFU mode:
Recovery mode:
iPhone and iPod touch: Unable to update or restore

I used a 25 dollar gift card on my account and I spent it all and now I can't even download free apps is there a way to fix this?

Did you enter a credit card when you created your Apple ID? If you created the ID and never entered a credit card, but used a gift card from the start, you probably didn't create the account correctly. The bottom line is that you have to enter a credit card now. You don't have to use it, but I'm assuming that's why you can't download free apps. You still need to enter the credit card because you didn't creat your Apple ID the correct way for not using a credit card.
