I need to replace my LCD display on my 13.3" macbook model

I broke my LCD display on my 13.3" mackbook model # A1181 and I want to buy a replacement screen online and replace myself.  The removal and installation will not be a problem for me, but I want to get a display that is the exact same as the original screen that came with my macbook when I purchased it about 4 years ago.  Can anyone tell me a site to purchase the display that will work for my mac? Thanks in advance for any help!

look on ebay my macbook screen broke i bought a new one from ebay for $110 took 2weeks and 15min to install saved $340 plus tax etc from the apple store

    I need to replace my crack 5C screen, any help

    If you are in the US, some Apple stores have the ability to replace a screen, some do not. If they can, the cost is only $149. If they cannot, then without Apple Care + you would need to purchase an out of warranty replacement at a cost of $269. If you do have Apple Care +. you can make 2 total exchanges over the 2 year life of Apple Care + with a $69 deductible.

  • White screen after replacing LCD display myself. Help needed!

    I tried replacing the cracked LCD display, the fuctions on the iPod is still working but after replacing the LCD display it turns out to be white. I search the internet for solution but can't find any instead the possible problem. I found forums stating it could be the 'GPU chip' is fried on the logic board. I tried the cracked LCD on another iPod Touch 2nd Gen and found out that you could still see the outline of the lockscreen and time but when I tried on the original iPod Touch 2nd Gen it's just white, the same goes for the new LCD display. It's there any possible way to replace just that part without resetting the iPod Touch to its factory settings and how much would it cost?

    There

  • What do i need to replace my screen?

    I was in class today using my Iphone 4S 64GB.I set it down on my desk, and turned around to answer sombody's question. When i turned back to my desk, i knocked my Iphone onto the tile floor (3-4 feet) and it completely obliterated my screen. Now, as apple is extremely expensive compared to other options, if I was to fix this myself, what would i need? I relaced the glass & LCD screen on my iphone 4, which was easy because i knew that the LCD was broken. But with this phone, ive noticed that the screen works. So does that mean i would only need to replace the glass? Or do i still need to replace the entire display?
    Thanks in advance

    There would be no way to tell without looking at it. Look at the teardown on http://www.ifixit.com

  • Display burn in - Apple does not want to replace the LCD

    Recently my iMac 24” LCD display began to have “screen burn ins“ or image persistence on the LCD. I have done extensive online research about the issue, I tried setting my screensaver to pure white and running the apple screensaver to resolve the issue. I did not use my computer any more extensively than any of my other macs, so the image burn in came as a surprise to me this early in the Mac’s life span. I understand that the issue exists, and would not surprise me if my computer was several years old and it was never turned off. I will have to argue that the “screen burn in” happened too early for my iMac.
    I took my iMac to an Apple store and waited to speak with a Genius and have a diagnosis. After the Genius ran his diagnosis he said that I am out of warranty, however he agreed with me that it was too early for something like this to happen. He proposed that my LCD screen would be replaced, and said that he would give me a break and make a “one time warranty exception and not charge me for the new LCD and replacement based on the circumstance.” The genius placed an order for an LCD panel for my iMac, printed out the work order and shook my hand, I was extremely grateful thanked the Genius for making such an exception.
    After leaving my iMac in the store for repairs for 5 days, with excitement and anticipation I picked up my iMac which was claimed to be “fixed”. I got home opened up the box and plugged in the iMac and the first thing that I noticed was a dead pixel that I recognized from the old LCD, what are the odds of the new display having a dead pixel in the exact same spot? I called back to the apple store with my repair number at hand and confirmed that my LCD was never replaced.
    I thought to myself, maybe they fixed it, but just to be safe I used the computer until I noticed nothing changed the “burn in issue” is still here. So I created a background image in photoshop to purposely leave on for an hour as proof of the problem. I called back to the apple store early in the morning and talked with the technical center, the girl on the phone said “I remember your mac” I thought we had it fixed. I asked to make sure that the LCD that was ordered for the sole purpose of fixing the burn in issue which I had was still at the store, it was confirmed that it was.
    I came by the apple store and a different Genius looked at my computer, saw the excessive burn in. He ran the “Flurry” Screen saver, which helped remove the current burn in but was still not fully removed. He then told me that they would not replace the LCD, and that I should set my screen saver to every 5 minutes and lower the brightness to reduce the load on the screen. I argued that even if I can get rid of the problem after running the screensaver for at least an hour, the burn in just keeps coming back, and fast too.
    I came home setup the screensaver settings and began using my machine, not using it for even more than an hour I saw the burn ins from the store and some new ones that came from my doc, and finder window and shadow lines distorting the entire screen, almost making it look like mud lines.
    I took a few pictures with a DSL camera at the highest resolution, but I am not sure if this shows enough to really show:
    Doc burned in:
    #1 http://dl.dropbox.com/u/1477936/apple/DSC_0751.jpg (need to make it 100% to see)
    #2 http://dl.dropbox.com/u/1477936/apple/DSC_0754.jpg (need to make it 100% to see)
    Does any one know what I should do now?

    Welcome to the Apple Discussions!
    I think that regardless that this was a different Genius, the Apple Store has made a commitment to you to repair the iMac out of warranty and should honor this commitment. I would go back to the Apple Store and speak directly to the Store Manager with your original paperwork in hand for the repair that was not completed.
    Should you not receive satisfaction from the Store Manager then I would call Apple Care and immediately ask to have your call escalated to a Customer Care representative. Explain the issue to the rep and ask for their assistance in receiving the repair commitment originally made to you by the Apple Store.
    Have all necessary paperwork for the committed repair at hand during your phone conversation. Take notes. Get the name and the position of each person to whom you speak. Speak firmly but politely. Do not get angry or make any threats. The minute you mention a lawyer or any other such threat the conversation will be over and Apple will fall back on the fact the Mac is out of warranty and any opportunity of getting a repair will likely be gone.

    I need a Front LCD Display Screen Touch Digitizer Assembly Frame for Iphone 4S Black, where can i buy it ? can i it by website? what ? thanks

    Anywhere you can find it via the obvious Google search. It won't be from Apple, but will be a generic replacement.
    Why are you throwing away any future chances of out of warranty replacements when you drop or drown it?  Apple will give you a warranteed replacement phone for $199 (in the US, roughly the same in your country)

  • Replacement LCD Displays

    Hi, Folks--I'm new to this forum so please forgive me if I'm asking something that has been asked recently.
    I have a 23" Cinema Display (the older one, model # M8536) that needs a new LCD display unit (the old screen is cracked). Is there any place where an end user can purchase these replacement screens for self-installation? I have Googled this topic everyway I can think of and can only find big LCD manufacturers that sell to the corporate world. One exception was applepalace.com which had the units available for about $1,800--a ridiculous price for a display that has not even been sold by Apple for a couple of years now.
    I've also scoured ebay, but the integrity of these used displays is always suspect.
    Any help for this do-it-yourselfer would be appreciated. Thanks!!

    The reason why yyou can use your MacBook on tv is that your hardware is totally fine. But your MacBook display isnt. i dont think you can solve this problem. This macbook needs an operation of an expert. He is going to replace the old display with newer. This accident can cost a lot of dollars so next time be careful with your MacBook! Best of luck to you!

  • Restart screen and no volume after LCD display replacement

    Hello All,
    I recently replaced a broken LCD display on my Powerbook G4. It starts up fine and I can even use my laptop for certain things. However, I get no sound and when I try and play songs off of itunes, quicktime files or any program that requires video or sound I get the "you need to restart your computer" screen. Any help or advice you can give me would be greatly appreciated. Thanks,
    Jay

    Welcome to Apple Discussions!
    If you replace the screen yourself, you may have missed some cable connections.
    If the clock battery is over 4 years old, I'd get it replaced.
    If the clock battery is under 4 years old, check these articles:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=300832
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=2238
    If you had someone else replace the screen, ask them to fix the damage they did which left you without audio and is causing kernel panics.
    My FAQ* here explains what can cause kernel panics:

    Which is your "You need to restart your computer" screen.

  • Replacement LCD display for AIO

    HP Omni 120-1034 fell forward on the desk, and the LCD display is cracked. The pc is out of warranty so I want to replace the screen but need to find the part number  and a source for the part itself. Any suggestions welcome, I'm findin the HP support site less than helpful so am turning to the forum. Thanks so much.

    Maybe have your screen replaced by Lenovo Support. Replacing a tablet LCD can be tricky maybe.

    Need instructions for the original (non-ALS) 17" LCD replacement...
    Ive replaced everything else, time to replace the LCD, but need the procedure to do it.
    Thanks

    Before you do surgery on your imac, go to applications, system preferences, displays, and see if you can adjust the brightness. My screen was significantly darker after I upgraded to 10.4.3 and I was able bring it back to life. For some reason the upgrade caused the brightness button to regress to 0 on a scale of one to ten- hope this works for you

  • Color management on LCD displays, need help

    Dear all,
    I know the same topic has been already raised so many times, but i just can't help to ask it again. I am sorry for that, I just realize I will at least get a concept of what to do next. Ppl here are helpful.
    I don't own any Apple monitor. I have a Macmini, connected to a new SONY LCD display, SDM-HS95P, by DVI connector.
    As everyone knows the situation of LCD monitors. They have higher contrast, brigther image that traditional CRT monitors. That's why photographers and graphic designers are blaming all the time.
    And now, I face the same as they do. My monitor is no more "WYSIWYG". The red i have here, may become another red on printing. The yellow I have here, may become orange on CRT.
    I calibrated with the Colorsync of OSX, I decreased the contrast and bright level of my monitor, but they dont help much.
    Someone suggested here to purchase color management hardwares. Of coz i know they are helpful. But the point is, how can a little student to afford a such expensive hardware for only doing color management?
    Apple displays are all in LCD these days, how does Apple help their users to overcome the mentioned situation?
    I know this maybe just a never-ending question, but i think ppl here may come up with some new ideas in resolving this.
    Please kindly help, much appreciate! Thanks!

    Hi.
    Apple cinema displays do not offer the user the ability to adjust the contrast. You need to be able to adjust contrast when calibrating the 2nd monitor to match the target white and black luminence values of the first monitor.
    Contrast is needed in order to adjust the white luminence value of the monitor you are calibrating. You need to be able to adjust the black and white luminence values of monitor 2 when using the white and black luminence target values from monitor 1 if you want both monitors to be calibrated so that they use the same (same but seperate) profiles.
    Colorvision (makers of spyder2 pro) has indicated that this is a huge issue with the ACD monitors and they are currently researching a workaround.
    If anyone knows how to fix this... please tell me (us)... thanks.
