Lap top screen was damaged

If anyone can help to give me an option about my lap top. My lap top still running but can't see the window 95% of it.
Is the screen can be changeable or fix and is it expensive? The lap top is only a two year old. Thanks for if any one can give me some ideas:)
PS: not sure the exact model but close to Panther/Mac OS G4 12" gray lap top.

Hi Mirby,
The screens are replaceable, but expensive. The screen itself can cost over $300. With installation, over $400.
The repair is not easy, and not for the faint-hearted. Unless you're very handy and very confident in your ability to do it yourself, I'd suggest you send it in. powerbookresq.com offers pretty good rates, cheaper than Apple's own, I think.
Or, you could pick up a free or cheap external monitor off craigslist, and just use your pb as a desktop. It all depends on how much you're willing to spend!

  • If you have an itunes acct that was not set up to share and the lap top it was on is no longer working, is there a way to open up the old itunes acct to get music and photos?  This was before icloud was available, can you reset your password?

    If you have an itunes acct that was not set up to share and the lap top it was on is no longer working, is there a way to open up the old itunes acct to get music and photos off of it?  This was before Icloud was available.  Can you reset your itunes password somehow?

    iTunes and the iTunes Store won't have anything to do with your photos. Those would be stored only on your laptop unless you made a backup of some sort. If you didn't, and the hard drive in your laptop has failed, then your photos are gone unless you wish to pay a disk recovery service a lot of money to try and get them back.
    As to your music, if you purchased it from the iTunes Store you can probably re-download it. Go to the iTunes Store, log into your account, and click the Purchases link under the Quick Links. From there you should be able to re-download some or all of your purchased content. Note that not all content has been licensed for re-downloading in all countries at this time.

    Hold down on the sleep button and the home button at the same time for about 10 seconds until the Apple logo appears on the screen. Ignore the red slider. When the logo appears let go of the buttons.

  • I would like to change the setting so that the whole lap-top screen apart from the bookmarks column is used for the information - at the moment I have only a strap using 2/3 of the screen, and the rest is mozlla background

    The previous version of Firefox used the whole screen; this version (Firefox Beta 4.0) uses only about 2/3 of the screen, leavig a space above and below the part-screen that it does use,and filling the rest with a background. I was able to chose which background when I first updated to this version, but I wasn't given the choice, as far as i remember, to have no background and use the whole screen.

    How recently did you switch?  If it's less than 60 days, then Verizon simply reinstates your previous account.  The fact that you were on the EDGE plan and mailed the devices back, and they apparently are somewhere in the system, could cause complications, and it might just work out that you just go back on the same plan and they set you up with the same devices.  I'm not sure how it will go - but since you are still being billed for the devices... 

  • After upgrading to Yosemite, it now takes roughly 3 minutes for my computer to boot up, my sign in is now on my lap top screen and not my aux. screen as it has been and my touchpad won't work until sometime after booting up.

    Slow boot, wrong screen & touchpad not connection correctly

    So are they going to do anything with all of this or just act like Microsoft & hope it'll get better by its-self? I'm pretty disappointed and wish I'd stayed with Mavericks. Is there anyway to go back?

  • Lap top screen issue replace? repair?

    I'm a new user to the best buy community, and my question is this:
    Do I need to look at replacing my entire laptop (HP) or can just the screen be fixed? My young son shut a bead against the screen, which still works to a limited degree. The "puncture" is black with perpendicular lines running out of it acorss the entire screen. After aout two minutes of use, the mouse stops working. Please help!
    Solved!

    Depends on the price range of the laptop.  However, unless it is a high end gaming laptop and is very new, it is not likely to be economical to fix just the screen.  Expect the repair cost to be a few hundred dollars.

  • How can I display my lap top screen on my Apple TV wirelessly

    I have a mac book , a older I Mac, a I pad and would like to be able to wirelessly display the content on my screen on my apple tv, can this be done? I have turned on in I tunes sharing , however, all i can see and hear is content that's in i tunes

    You can mirror any mid 2011 or newer Mac (early 2011 Mac Book Pro) running OSX 10.8 or newer Mountain lion.  Older macs can use airparrot, a third party app from www.airparrot.com.  Ipad needs to be 2 Gen or newer and I think ios 6.

  • I thought the iPad screen was scratch proof?

    I thought the iPad was scratch proof yet mine has a scratch/dent on the screen. Will apple do something about this?

    Copied from Apple's iPad technical specs web site.
    Retina display
    9.7‑inch (diagonal) LED-backlit Multi‑Touch display with IPS technology
    2048-by-1536 resolution at 264 pixels per inch (ppi)
    Fingerprint-resistant oleophobic coating
    http://www.apple.com/ipad/specs/
    The screen is fingerprint resistant, not scratch proof. IF ... You can convince Apple that the screen was damaged when you took it out of the box, they may replace the device for you. You would have to contact Apple and show the device to a genius at an Apple Store for starters.

    Thanks for nothing, as usual, Apple.

  • I had an Apple account on my old Lap Top to which my iPad  and iPhone were syncd. I now have a new Lap Top and when I tried to access my apple ID on it I was asked to sign up for a new account. I can't use any of them.

    I am puzzled by this. The laptop doesn't need the Apple ID - but iTunes does. I could be missing something but ....
    Why would you not be able to use your existing Apple ID and iTunes account on a new laptop? If you authorized the computer - you should be able to use your existing account - unless you already had 5 computers authorized with the existing ID - and that was why iTunes would not accept the ID. However, I'm sure that you would have received a popup message from iTunes telling you that you had reached the limit.
    I just received a new MBP and my daughter did as well. My entire family shares an Apple ID and we had no issues at all with my Apple ID and iTunes on our new computers and I did not have to sign up for a new account. Did you even try the old ID?

  • The touch screen on my nearly brand new Pavillion lap top running windows 8 no longer works.

    The touch screen on my nearly brand new Pavillion lap top running windows 8 no longer works.  Cant use calibration tools as there's no response to touch.  No option in control panal to turn on or off touch capability.  I have no computer background so cant really get to technical.  Is something simple turned on or off located in some mysterious place?  F key or something?   Bad machine?  Thanks for any input.  Sarah

    I found the driver at the above link.  I installed the driver, disabled my graphics card and rebooted.  The touchscreen worked.  Then I enabled the graphics card.  So far so good.  Hope I dont have to do this routine too often.
    Good luck with it.

  • Having trouble with display from lap top to flat screen hdtv

    I connected my macbook pro 2011 to my hdtv with a thunderbolt to hdmi cable.  The audio comes through but all I can see on the TV are the default mac backgrounds.  What do I need to do so that my TV shows whats on my lap top?

    You have the display set in Extended Desktop mode with the MacBook as the main screen. The Menu Bar and Dock will be on the MacBook display and your background screen on the TV but you can move the cursor onto the TV screen. In System Preferences>Display on the MacBook screen there should be an Arrangement tab when you have the MacBook hooked up to the TV and both screens working. When you click the Arrangement tab do you see two monitors side by side? One of them will have a Menu Bar at the top. Just click on the Menu Bar and drag it to the second monitor. That will make the second monitor your main screen.
    You can now use your MacBook in Clamshell Mode with a wired or Bluetooth keyboard and mouse.  http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3131 When you disconnect from the TV your Menu Bar will automatically change back to the MacBook.
    Or if you want to use the MacBook’s keyboard and trackpad to work on the MacBook screen while showing it on a TV you can check the Mirror Display box on the lower left hand side of the Arrangement tab under the two monitors box. That will give you the same screen at the same resolution on both the MacBook and the external monitor.

  • I was in Aussie last month and dropped my iPod Touch (4th Gen) on the road. The screen was cracked on the top left-hand corner. The screen got fixed but the wireless stopped working. Can I still get it fixed under my warranty? (bought last July)

    I was in Aussie last month and dropped my iPod Touch (4th Gen) on the road. The screen was cracked on the top left-hand corner (where the wireless area is). The screen got fixed but the wireless stopped working. So I am wireless-less... I bought it last July and its still under warranty, but can I still claim a repair on it?

    No because it was physical damage
