Is there something between my display glass and LCD?

I can't tell if this is a dead pixel, stuck pixel, or there is something in between my display glass. I think it is something between my display glass and LCD because when i turn my computer screen off, it appears like a little white speck and when I look at a black screen it appears as a little white speck, as you can see attatched. What can I do about it? This is a mid 2012 MacBook Pro.

A new Mac is in warranty for 1 year from the date of purchase.
You may have to take the computer to the Apple store to have it checked out.
Try reset PRAM.

  • Dust Between the Glass and LCD Surface.

    I have a pocket of dust between the glass and LCD surface. I don't even notice that it is there until the screen behind the patch gets darker. Then my ADD kicks in and I focus on it intently.
    Can it be cleaned by anyone and not cost me $$$$$ or void any warantees?

    I recently had the same problem. I made an appointment with the Genius Bar at the Apple store. The Genius was able to replace my screen with a new one; It took about 10 minutes.

  • How to remove water from between glass and lcd

    I took my phone into repair a few weeks back and probably got non OEM parts. Now after having my phone near the pool for a couple of swims, I've got water stuck between the glass and LCD. The phone works fine. Just lots of spots on the screen. Best way to dry out? Rice? Take it apart? Open to some suggestions. Thanks.

    Put in a bowl covered by uncooked rice on a radiator or heated floor for min 48hours

  • Dust, Debris In Between Glass and LCD

    Hi,
    A few months ago I purchased a Macbook Pro 13", it is not the newest revision with the nvidia320 graphics, its the older.
    Anyways, just a couple days ago, I opened the computer and noticed two pieces of dust in between the glass and display right it the middle of course about two inches apart, they for sure are not dead or stuck pixels as I can get them to move just a tad if I give the screen a few good taps but I don't want to screw up anything, plus a few more specks have came and gone since this started (seemingly moving across the screen over a couple days) but the original two specks are still there it seems to be getting worse and I'm concerned by a month or two the screen is going to have dozens of these specs. I keep my screen and computer super clean, I'm a bit neurotic about that which is why it annoys me so much. I'm wondering if I have a leak i the seal around my screen or something.
    Once you see these things you can't un-see them. To make matters worse, I haven't yet bought the applecare but it is still within the one year warranty, and its the old model so I don't know if they would even be able to replace it for me if they could as I'm sure they have started caring only the newest revision. Which would be a problem for me if they just opted to swap the whole thing since I got the faster 2.53 model and not the base, and from the looks of it the newer model only comes in 2.4ghz and 2.66 respectively.
    TL;DR, I have an appointment at an Apple Store tomorrow to have them check it out but I don't know if they are going to want me to pay to replace the screen or what, since I don't have apple care but I'm still under 1 year warranty? I'm curious if anyone else has been in a similar situation. This seems likes its a manufacturers defect and not anything I could have caused. It already seemed like I was pulling their teeth when I got my Macbook Pro originally it had several dead pixels and I was able to get them to swap it out so I'm wondering what kind of freak their going to think I am when I show them these pieces of dust lol. But man are they annoying, has anyone else went through this on a model over two weeks old?

    Hello,
    After reading the post and review the pictures I think I have the same problem.
    I bought a MacBook Pro 13" in December 2009 (still under warranty) through Apple Store and I noticed what I thought was a dead pixel. Looking better, even with the screen off, there is something in the sector. I took it to an Apple service and said it was a speck of dust behind the glass. I made the request to repair to Apple Care and have not had a response succesfull.
    Would greatly appreciate any suggestions from you guys.
    Greetings.
    Here are some pictures:

  • Anybody ever seen a black fiber between the front glass and the actual screen?

    I seem to have one.  It certainly won't come off with any method I know of it and seems to be between the top layer of glass and the screen itself.  Brand new display from an authorized retailer.

    I felt the way you do.  It is not cheap and should be perfect.  When I returned it to the Apple store they did not even look at it.  They just gave me another one.

  • Is there differences between gui 6.2 and 6.4 concerning scripting?

    I have 2 programs compiled in Delphi not working on same PC's , same user in 6.4. It seems it hangs on date data entry.
    was something changed?
    is there something else changed?
    regards
    Didier

    well I made all the old stuff work.
    As expected the error was linked to sendvkey but you can force  for this object an additionnal line
        procedure SendVKey(vKey: SYSINT); dispid 32808;
    // DispIntf :  ISapMainWindowTarget
    // Flags :     (4096) Dispatchable
    // GUID :      {B3588C87-D300-44F3-985C-C3E447DBF4C5}
      ISapMainWindowTarget = dispinterface
        ['{B3588C87-D300-44F3-985C-C3E447DBF4C5}']
    and the ascendant compatibility is restored.  I don't know why this change was made...
    Otherwise the main issue was that the eventsink was not connected and my mind had trouble to find out the link was not in hard coding (an assignment of pointer or procedure parameter) but within a component.
    The old script need a rewrite due to the additionnal components related to session and shortcut.
    Will you update the documentation stating that slow link are not supported or better make it rework?
    It is simply just much faster.
    End of my troll.

  • Is there any way to control remote and LCD by other app ?

    Hi,
    I'm still search, how can I control remote and LCD by Girder. Have you any idea ?
    Media center III is wery slow, and unstable. I use myHTPC http://myhtpc.net and speed is famous.
    Now I use remote keyboard and mouse, but IR remote from MSI is better.

    If you find it, let us know:-)
    I'm building my own mediacener app. and would like it to support both the remote & the LCD
    Its a shame there's no open API for the LCD/remote :-(
    MSI please give us an API for the LCD/remote!!!!

  • Dead pixel and something stuck between glass and LCD

    Just got a new Apple Thunderbolt Display (27-inch). As you can see from the photo below there is one dead pixel and some material stuck (that move around a little when you press the screen).
    Apple will replace this if I take it back won't they?

    You can exchange for a new one (that is what I did).  However, using suction cups you can remove the glass screen for cleaning( only held on with magnets).  Of course that will not solve the pixel being out which is unusual for TBD.

  • Is there nothing between iTunes 10.3 and iTunes 10.5?

    I can't access the iTunes store, it is stuck on the download iTunes 10.5 page and I am running os10.4.11 so I can't.

    Guess what ...
    I gave it a last try, and followed the uninstall procedure from the Apple support site (again),
    then checked that all directories they listed were gone (they were), then removed every trace
    of "Apple" and "Apple Inc." from the registry, rebooted, then installed iTunes 10.4.0.80 again
    after downloading it from the Apple site.
    After it started - surprise - it still knew about the different location of my library, and all my settings,
    from sync to encoding, were still there!
    Then I connected the iPhone, waited until Windows 7 told me the drivers were installed and working,
    and I right-clicked the iPhone in iTunes and selected "save" (backup).
    And - oh wonder - the backup finished in less than two minutes, INCLUDING music and video files!
    Next I did a regular sync - and, oh horror ...
    First, it told me some 30 contacts would be changed. Although I couldn't see any difference from the
    conflict display (guys, when there is a conflict, show me WHAT is different - is it THAT hard?!?!). I told it to update the entries in Outlook, let the iPhone win.
    Next - shock number two - it told me one entry in my calendar would be new, but some almost 400 would be different. It seems they all have one day offset ...
    Great ... now I need to check out all my data in Outlook.
    Oh boy ... three years that this problem comes and goes, by now it hadn't hit me personally, but now it has.
    I'm really done with that **** - now I *can* sync and backup, but what's the point if it corrupts my data?!?!
    Hey APPLE ... I'm soooooooo p*ssed !!

  • Is there something very wrong with Lion and Fcp x or what?

    I have just spent a very frustrating two weeks editing a one hour fifteen minute project on FCP X with Lion as the operating system. Every edit session has been plagued with crashes. My mac is a 21.2 inch, with an I7 processor and 12gig of ram which I bought the middle of this year. I had set my computer up with two partitions, one with Lion and the other with Snow leopard. This morning, in an effort to improve the terrible instability of FCP X under Lion I decided to try it under Snow Leopard......What an unbelievable difference.....I've been editing for the last three hours now throwing all kinds of clips and effects and so forth at the timeline and have not experienced one crash. What is going on here? How can Lion and FCP X be so incompatible?

    You don't mention whether this one hour and fifteen minutes long project consisted of just one FCP X project when you experienced problems with FCP X and Lion?
    You also don't mention how long the project was that you edited successfully with Snow Leopard. If, as I suspect, this was a very short 'test' project, that would make sense. FCP X does not cope well with long projects.
    I use Lion exclusively but I keep my projects to a maximum of 30 minutes (preferably no more than 20 mins). If the total programme is longer, I make create several FCP X projects - each being a 'chapter' of the main programme. When finished, I make compound clips of all the 'chapters' then I paste them into a new (full length) project.
    I'm not pretending FCP X is perfect, but for me at least, it's very workable as long as you understand it's weaknesses. I have 16 GB RAM and since I upgraded from the 8 GB I had previously, it's made a huge difference.
    If you are getting crashes, there is some conflict on the OS. Create a new (admin) user account on your system and use FCP X from there - if it runs a lot better, there's a conflict and a clean install would be recommended.
    Other ways to improve performance:
    Create optimised media.
    Hide Waveforms at all times when you don't need them (both in Browser and Storyline / Timeline). They take up a lot of processor power.
    Create folders in the Project library and put any projects you are not working on currently, in there. (Twirl it closed to hide them).
    Move your Projects and Events to an external HD (make sure it's formatted OS Extended - with journaled on or off) and run from there.

  • Is there a way to display canvas and MathML in one page with Firefox 3.6?

    I can use the canvas element in a HTML5 document with the current Firefox. I can also display MathML with a xhtml+math doctype. But I couldn't find a way to use them together in the same document.
    I am aware that it works with the current Firefox 4 beta using a HTML5 doctype.

  • Why there are fog between the display and the glass?

    Something weird happened to my iMac. I think there is a gap between the display and the glass at the front, right? Today I found some "fog" on the inner part of the glass. I think there are some water vapor in the gap and it condense to form some fog on the glass. I once tried to used a Hairdryer and blew some worm air on to the glass at the front. It works, the fog disappeared. However, after a while, the fog appears again! What can I do????

    According to one Mac genius I spoke with, the cleaning kit is used by repair techs at the Apple Store. Not sure if they sell it since the inside of the glass display is not user-serviceable. The kit I was told has, among other items, a plastic film that peels off the last bit of debris from inside the glass. Check out this video. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=frfzESC-ahM
