IPad 1 has bright white spot

I have an annoying problem with my original ipad 1.
It has a bright white spot (more visible on white pages) about a cm above the round button on the screen
And a red dead pixel on the right side.
It is now obviously out of warrenty but would an Apple Genius Bar worker replace my device for free?
(below is an image but the picture didnt take very clearly at all, the white patch is very bright)

Apple provides out of warranty service, but obviously for a fee. See the following link http://support.apple.com/kb/index?page=servicefaq&geo=United_States&product=ipad
You can change the country option from the dropdown located near the top to see prices in your country.

My ipod touch screen has gone white with bright white spots, I have restored it but it is still white. It shows in ITunes but I cant do anything with it. Can anyone help please

My Ipod touch screen has gone white with bright white spots on it. I have restored it and it shows in ITunes but the screen is still white. Is there anything I can do? The warranty has run out so I will have to pay for any repairs (if it can be repaired). Any help would be much appreciated. Thank you in advance.

If you still have problems after restoring the iPod to factory defaults/new iPod then you very likely have a hardware problem. I would make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

Bright white spot in ipad 3

I am seeing a bright white spot on my ipad3 screen, it is very much visible in white pages, but not so much in black.
Looks like a hardware problem.
I purchased my ipad3 on day it was launched, and using it for almost 6 months now. Is it still covered in warranty? I am out of the country, so not sure where to take it for inspection.
Thanks.

It's not easy because , I'm from Russia =(
I see that this problem have many people.
I had the same problem in my Macbook pro.

Bright white spots on the screen?

Hey guys, my iPhone has developed these two bright white spots on the screen. I don't think it's a hardware problem because they are not there for every application. But I have tried restarting it, completely resetting it, etc with no success. The problem is I bought in July 2007 so my warranty is up. Am I screwed?

You can also look at LCD replacement from outside repair companies like iResQ.com. If you're not sure what's going on with the spots, you can also get a diagnosis within 24 hours from them before you decide to repair or resell. Replacement can be had for $130, back to you the day after receiving your order. Also, their techs are Apple-certified. Check it out if you're still having problems:

My ipod touch 4g, has a white spot on the screen when you turn it on, what is that and how do I fix it?

When you turn the ipod on, there is a noticeable white spot on the screen/display. Once all the apps come on you can't see it, but when it starts up you can.

From you descriptionis is hard to tell if it a atain on the outside of the screen or just what. Have you tried cleaning the screeen as said in the users guide:
Cleaning iPod touch
Clean iPod touch immediately if it comes in contact with any contaminants that may cause stains,
such as ink, dyes, makeup, dirt, food, oils, or lotions. To clean iPod touch, disconnect all cables and
turn off iPod touch (press and hold the On/Off button, then slide the onscreen slider). Then use a
soft, slightly damp, lint-free cloth. Avoid getting moisture in openings. Don’t use window cleaners,
household cleaners, compressed air, aerosol sprays, solvents, alcohol, ammonia, or abrasives to
clean iPod touch. Rubbing the screen with an abrasive material may scratch the glass.
For more information about handling iPod touch, see the iPod touch Important Product Information
Guide at www.apple.com/support/manuals/ipodtouch.

Ipad has a white screen

How do you fix it?

Have you tried resetting the iPad?
Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

Macbook pro retina display white spot(LCD Mura)

i have a macbook pro retina mid 2012 and i was traveling for 9 months and i had this problem for a while that my screen has a 2 bright white spots on the lower left quadrant of the screen it is an LG display and i researched online and people seem to be calling it an LCD mura. My macbook is out of warranty but i was wondering whether apple will replace the screen or not since it is a very common problem

Hello!
I bought mine in July 2012 and hadn't noticed any white spots until around December. I though maybe it was some problem with Firefox since I could only see it when surfing on internet but then one day I changed the background and realized that it was visible, as you say, on a light background. There I didn't see it on Lr od Ps.
I called yesterday to Apple (they don't have shops here in Oslo where I am located now) and tehy told me to go to the Authorized Service Provider.
I went this morning and they will change the screen for free as it is less than 1-year old. But recommended me to pay for the Apple Care... mmmhh...
I asked if he had seen these spots on more rMBP and he confirmed it. He had seen more although he couldn't tell me if it was a weakness of the Retina-screens..
Would be nice to know..
Do I have to start saving for the new replacement-screens to come?!
...until further notice I'll be 2 weeks without my beloved rMBP and my Adobe friends...

White spot on the screen

I have an ipad mini, has a white spot that is very noticeable, but how are letters in spots, this disappears , what i can do?
Translated with google translator

With a lot of time spent waiting on hold for a tech support person (I literally timed 47 minutes before speaking to someone) and some very direct answers, my powerbook screen was replaced BUT the hinges are now missaligned. ITS ALWAYS SOMETHING LATELY. I never had a problem with my 1.25ghz PowerBook and it seems as APPLE is making a commercial leap, what was once high end is just mediocre moderate end junk. Though they did fix the screen, I had to purchase AppleCare and urge anyone who is in the time frame where this is an option to do the same.
TIPS
Clock your hold time. there is no excuse for me to wait that long to be put on hold and then transferred after my first attempt was dropped ON THEIR END as I was calling from an analogue landline.

Bright white dots on iPhone 4s screen

3 months ago, I bought the Apple iPhone 4s via Three UK. It was a brand new contract phone.
About a week ago, the phone developed a bright white spot in the middle of the screen, white is very noticeable.I had not dropped the phone at all. Then, a few days ago, another bigger but not as bright dot appeared on the screen. What is this and how can it be fixed? I believe the iPhone is in its warranty, but I'm not sure what the problem is. I have also noticed that the phone is freezing lots, and is randomly re booting. Yesterday, the phone was not making any calls in full bar areas.
Thanks in advance,
bainb8248

First, try to reset the phone by holding the sleep and home button for about 10sec, until the Apple logo comes back again. You will not lose data by resetting.
If this does not help, set it up as new device, explained here:
How to erase your iOS device and then set it up as a new device or restore it from backups
If still no luck, get it checked by visiting an Authorized Apple Service Provider or contact Apple Support to get it serviced:

Ardha,
Welcome to the forum. White spots on the LCD, typically a bright white spot most clearly seen against a white background like the forum, or google home page, is caused by pressure damage - pressure applied to back of the LCD panel.
Since you indicated that you have only had the system 1 day, unless you are aware of something that happened while in your care, I can only guess that the damage was done during transport or manufacturing. I would recommend you contact your point of purchase and ask to exchange the unit. I would also try to power up and inspect the new system immediately to make sure all is well.
Please also see my PM - I would like you to take a pic of the spot and email to me if possible. While random things happen, I'd like us to take a look at this.
Best regards,
Mark

So I am currently facing the same issue on my brand new iPhone 6. When I unboxed it and was setting it up I noticed a fairly big white spot near the upper edge of the screen. The size actually reduced down to pixel width by the next day. So this might happen in your case in another days time (maybe). If it does its the exact same issue!
Currently my phone is at the service center and they're having a look ... Suggest you should get it checked as well

White spot in upper left hand corner appears when changing apps since iOS7

When I upgraded to iOS7 on my iPhone 4S a bright white spot started to appear in the upper left corner when I change apps. It is random when I happens. I was hoping it would stop when I moved to the 5s, but it is still happening. Any idea what could be causing this? Thanks!

diesel: Please read the experience others had before advising. The person above even changed his phone. THe only thing that fixed it for him for was not migrating his apps, while the solution is not that extreme, it is related to the app icons you have.
This is an issue with the apple zoom feature when you open apps. Depending on which app icon is where on the screen makes a difference. Reseting, rebooting, updating are no help if the icons are still in the same place.
To reproduce on any iphone 5/5s with ios 7 place the google maps app in the second row and second column of the first page. Open the yelp app, not from the multi-tasking screen, but search for it in the search bar and open it. you'll see a disc on the top right corner. Also, when you close the app by pressing the home button, you'll see it again.

Did Apple Fix the White Spot Problem (in older PBs)?

Did Apple fix the white spot problem in the older 15" PBs? By fix, I actually mean, in production - not having to send it in to have it fixed. If I'm going to buy an last generation, discounted PB it will need to be flawless.

We cannot go back very far away in the past in this forum, because posts are erased after a few months. I cannot personnaly answer the question whether or not the white spot where frequent or not, but it seems that there is for the moment very few posts talking about white spot in Jan/feb revision of PB15".
As I told you before mine from August has a very tiny white spot, that I will check carefully in the future.
If I can give you some advices :
Buy a refurbished PB less than one year old (Feb rev). Call Applestore and ask them if you can buy an Applecare on it, it will cover it for the next two years after the end of the warranty. Check the possibility to send it back if it does not work properly.
If your powerbook has no white spot appearing before 3 years of use, the probability it appears afterwards would be very low IMHO.
