If you are looking on a different page is the mark always in the same place? If so it could be a dead pixel.
If you took it in I don’t think they will do much about it, as I think 1, 2 or 3 dead pixels are probably within the tolerances allowed for that screen.
You can always take it in to see what they say.

There is always a blue screen appears after the Apple logo during the booting process. And then everything is back to normal. What is this thing? Is there something wrong with my screen or something?

Nah - that's just the normal boot process.

I am trying to activate new itunes card. I am getting error message: The code you have entered has not been properly activated. Does this mean the store did something wrong or me?

Yes, the store didn't properly activate the card. If the store is nearly then you could try going back and asking them to do so, if it isn't (or if they can't/won't help) then try contacting iTunes Support (you will probably need to give them images of the front and back of the card, and possibly its receipt) : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then iTunes Cards And Codes

It looks like the app is not currently in the App Store, I can't find it in the UK nor US stores.
If you had previously downloaded it then do you have a copy on your computer's iTunes so that you can sync it to your iPad ?

There is a small white light in the retina display on my ipad 3. Is this a dead pixel/light leak and how do I fix it? (Located at the bottom left side between home button and left corner)

Maybe this will show up better in green.

HT203177 I have not backed up my computer using Time Machine since before I updated to Mavericks. It has been "preparing backup" for a half hour at least and shows no indication of how long this may take. Is something wrong?

No. TM has to look through your entire drive contents and copy them all. This will take some time.
Once the first backup is made, then subsequent backup will be much quicker, depending on how much data has changed since the last one.

Downloaded and installed os x yosemite and now mac book pro will not restart? How long should this take? Is there something wrong? Please helpthanks in advance

MAc book pro. I have downloaded and installed os x yosemite now mac book pro will not start? How long should it take? Is there something wrong?

The 2 computers here took about 45 minutes to an hour each.
The best thing to do is give it more time. If it gets too ridiculous, shutdown using the power button and then restart. Check  menu/About This Mac to see if it is installed.

Is this a dead pixel?

I saw this white dot on a ask.fm page. I am not sure if it is a dead pixel because this pic is an screenshot and i dont think dead pixels show up on screen shots.
also the dead pixel dissapeared when i left the web page. I think it is just a bug of the webpage but i want to be sure. Remember that this pic is an screenshot.

Hablas Español?
Para explicarlo mejor prefiero hablar español jaja.
El pixel aparece en la pagina ask.fm pero yo pienso que los pixeles muertos solamente aparecen si tomas una foto con una cámara de celular no una captura a la pantalla con command - shift - 3.
Además cuando uso la app vista previa para ver el png de la toma de la pantalla puedo recortar la zona donde está el pixel moverlo a dónde yo quiera, incluso esa foto que está arriba no es la original yo recorté la zona dondeaparecía el "pixel" y creé otro png.
Incluso, el png está como un icono en mi escritorio y si observas el icono detalladamente puedes ver el supuesto pixel muerto. es como si fuera parte de la imagen y no un pixel muerto en si. yo pienso que los pixeles muertos se quedan en un solo lugar y no se mueven y aparecen en los iconos de las imagenes etc.
incluso pienso que un pixel muerto no aparece en una captura de pantalla

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.

Dead pixels or something

My question, before I even get into the story, is whether or not this is worth pursuing...
I bought a 20" Intel iMac in late 2006. It's still under AppleCare warranty. Shortly after I bought it, something went wrong and it would only turn on intermittently. The folks at the Apple Store ran their tests and came up empty. I finally took it to Micro Center and they replaced the logic board and solved the problem.
This past month, I've been having hard drive and optical drive issues. I was having major slow downs, and Disk Verify was telling me the volume was damaged, and the optical disk drive would only accept the discs it wanted to. I took it to the Apple Store, they did an erase and install and told me the problem was solved. Obviously it wasn't, which I only found out after re-installing a hundred and fifty gigs of software and data and getting everything organized again. I pitched a fit and they finally replaced the HD and optical drive.
I picked it up today and starting reinstalling everything again. Then I noticed all these little grey dots on my monitor! I used to have one super tiny red pixel and one grey smudge. Now I've got an additional red pixel and about 13 grey smudges. (Just dot-like smudges, but I can see them and they're totally distracting.) I mean, I can still work on the machine, but this kind of ticks me off! I don't know if some dust got in there when the machine was open or what.
What do you guys recommend? It seems like when that first red pixel appeared almost two years ago, someone told me that was normal and unless a certain percentage of the screen was affected, I had to live with it. Well, these dots weren't here when I put the machine in the box to take it to the Apple Store! Any suggestions?

My initial reaction to that picture is there's a defect in the display. It doesn't look like a video card defect nor something caused by some object under the glass to me.
You don't say which monitor that is. But if it's an imac-like monitor (or the recent crop of apple stand-alone monitors). and you are interested in removing the glass to look under it, there are instructions on removing the glass covering the screen. iFixit has some. And if you put something like "remove imac glass" into google you'll find a whole bunch.
One final thing; your sig says you are using Lion. Did you see this problem with Snow Leopard. Anything involving lion I hold suspect

Been trying to download Lion from the App Store. It saks for login, I login in and it starts install. After about 13 hours it finishes download then asks for login again. After login, it starts installing again. It never shows installed. This is the third time I am doing this. Am I doing something wrong?

Sorry, my bad, we have the iMac G5 10.6.8. I just got home and the message said an error occurred and was unable to download. Am I doing something wrong or is there something I need to do.

Dead Pixels? Broken Screen? HELP!

Hi everyone,
So about 3 weeks ago I bought a brand new 8G iPod touch.
I use it almost every day, and I've never had a problem with it.
Recently, I started getting battery issues which weren't drastic but were obvious enough to bug me, but I let it slide because the amount of time I used the ipod wasn't affected by it.
Just this morning, I was using it, and after I was done I placed it on my desk. Without any use between the time I had put it down, and when I came back for it (About 3 hours), A patch of dead pixels or SOMETHING about the size of a fingernail formed. I got pretty annoyed at this, but I didn't move it anywhere else, because I plan to take it to the store tomorrow and ask about what can be done.
Though, another hour or so after that happened I checked it again, and the patch had gotten bigger.
This kept happening until the patch became a line which strewed across the whole screen.
After that, the screen began to flicker and pulse like a broken TV.
What the heck is going on!?

Hey what happened, did they give you a new one, cause exactly the same thing has happend to mine, I even had it in a protective case thing and grey lines appeared on the screen, But the screen didn't flicker or pluse.
I've only had it 5days!!

MacBook Pro w/Retina has moving dead pixel (white)

I recently purchased a MacBook Pro w/Retina and have an annoying issue that comes up from time to time. Once in a while a bright white pixel will appear in the middle of the screen. It stays put while it is there and I can drag screens around and nothing changes but then suddenly it will go away. After awhile it will popup in a new location and the same thing will happen. Any ideas what this might be? Is it an issue with my screen?

Anyone reading in 2013/2014 running Mavericks (and worth a try with earlier OS) and having this issue on an external display, I wrote about the deceptively simple solution here: http://forums.macworld.com/index.php?/topic/153791-dead-pixel-or-something-else/
Basically, in display preferences try moving the menu bar (that small white rectangle on the arrangement screen back and forth...that's it.

Dust under screen and Dead Pixels on new MBP...

I got a new Macbook and, aside from the fact that it was missing the P key, there was a new manufacturing defect I hadn't seen before, (must be from the new process), wherein dust was trapped behind the glass screen.
The Apple Store was great about letting me exchanging it, no problem. Then I realized that I needed firewire so I returned the new and unopened Macbook replacement to upgrade to a MacBook Pro, but now I'm disheartened, because the new MacBook Pro, though a thing of beauty, has a bright dead pixel in the top middle screen, as well as a dimmer dead pixel 2 inches to the left of that one.
I just bought the computer a few hours ago.
Do you think I have a shot at them replacing it tomorrow? I hate to think of staring at this, (bright) dead pixel for three years, (not to mention the other dimmer dead pixel).
Thanks!

Yep, I too did a custom order wtih everything I could get on it. And sad to say, like many iphones I have gotten, it too had dust under the display. It also was about 10 different yellow flecks under the glass. Customer service gave me no fuss really and I have sent it off and am awaiting a new one now. However, it is frustrating that this makes it out of the factory in the first place. Quality control should have seen this, especially when I am looking at buying 2 more shortly. It is my first actual mac purchase aside from the numerous other accories I have bought for PC use. However, with vista being the garbage that it is, I am having mac withdrawls now. ***** when you use something that works and then revert back.
I also noticed the battery lid was a little loose on the laptop. Hopefully this is a isolated thing as well. It does take about another week and a half from what I am told to get the replacement. Kinda ***** to have to wait, but I am sure it will be worth it.

Is this a dead piXel or something wrong?
