Macbook Pro Screen protector broken

How can I get it replaced?

What screen protector? Do you mean you've broken the pane of glass in front of the LCD panel? If that's what you mean, you can either have Apple replace your entire display assembly for many hundreds of dollars, or order a replacement pane of glass and do it yourself:

  • My MacBook pro screen is broken (awaiting part for repair) can I transfer keynotes pres onto iPad air? Without a home screen to navigate?

    I am eagerly awaiting the correct parts to repair my MacBook pro screen (my husband dropped it). I have an iPad air but for some reason iCloud has only stored a very old copy of a keynotes presentation I need? Anyway to transfer with being able to see MacBook screen to guide me?
    Cheers

    You misunderstand the memory management scheme and misinterpret the display you're seeing.
    To start with, free memory is wasted memory. Once some disk contents have been brought in, it is wasteful to discard that data just to make the RAM that it occupied "free." Inactive memory is memory that is not currently used, can be given to an application that needs it without doing any disk I/O (or used as a destination for reading disk content) but which currently holds disk data that might be useful in the future. I.e., it's file content of some sort.
    To get a better idea of how Mac OS X manages RAM and how to interpret the Activity Monitory dispaly, see this tech note: Mac OS X: Reading system memory usage in Activity Monitor.
    Rosetta is indeed memory hungry, but it's an interim solution. With 2 GB of RAM installed, you can run a lot of applications with alacrity.
    Lastly, your Safari, an Intel-native application, is currently using 2 GB. This is a known issue with Safari, though it seems to me that it has gotten better since 2.0.3 was released in 10.4.6. Still, it's a bit of a memory hog, to be sure. Now that Firefox, Camino and Seamonkey are all available in Universal (Intel native) forms, you have alternatives. Firefox seems a lot more parsimonious when it comes to RAM.

  • Macbook Pro Screen Protector query

    So I just bought my new MBP 13 inch, and was wondering if anyone has had any successful experiences with a type of screen protector? I know you can buy them online, but I'm not interested in waiting.
    Which one's work the best? Have you notice that it has helped? Is a screen protector necessary for the MBP? I just thought that one could help insure such an investment.

    One further thought on screen protectors is something like this:

    These keep any grunge from the keyboard from possibly transferring to the display, and are also useful for wiping the dust off the display. There is supposed to be a gap between the keys and the display, and grunge is not supposed to touch the display. However, at least in some previous models, there was some transfer and you could see the keyboard pattern on the display.
    Of course, a clean sheet of paper can do the same thing.

  • How much does apple charge to fix a broken macbook pro screen?

    How much does apple charge to fix a broken macbook pro screen?

    No one here would know for sure...my guess? Somewhere around US $700. You'll get it done cheaper at a third-party repair shop.

  • How much to replace broken macbook pro screen??

    how much to replace broken macbook pro screen??

    Few thoughts:
    There is a minuscule possibility that you can successfully convince the Genius that the damage was not due to abuse or mishandling. And if it is still under warranty, a new free screen will be yours. Don't get your hopes up too high, though...
    If a Retina, the cost will be so high that maybe selling it for parts and getting a new one might be a better idea.
    Same may apply if it is very old. Not cause the screen costs arm+leg, but because you will be sinking lots of cash onto a sinking ship.
    If handy with tools, can explore PowerBookMedic.com or IFixIt.com for parts prices and howto.

  • Broken Macbook Pro Screen

    So my Macbook Pro screen broke today. The laptop has Applecare and I was just wondering if Applecare covers any part of it? With my IBM Thinkpad T41, the screen broke and IBM paid for half of the $500 repair fee, does apple do anything like that? How much would it be to replace the screen?

    If you must know how I broke two laptop screens, I take my laptop everywhere, I mean everywhere. I am a photographer (I use a Canon 30D if anyone is wondering), as for my Macbook Pro, the screen breaking was the result of me hiking up a rather steep hill, loosing my footing with my laptop in my laptop backpack. The backpack is well padded (Crumpler) but my camera with lens still attached and me falling, isn't too great for a laptop screen. The superdrive was also damaged and there is a nice dent in the bottom.
    The T41 was in a Targus black laptop case, loading a bunch of stuff into my vehicle, left it on the black asphalt, never noticed that I didn't load it into the vehicle, backed up, and you can imagine what happened. Surprising, the casing of the laptop was still fine, didn't even look like it was ran over. Still worked too, I needed an external monitor though

  • Translucent impromptu possible "hacker" message interrupts current session, locks MacBook Pro screen and demands that I restart by holding down the power button of my LapTop to turn it off first. Any thought? Could this be another way to mess with us?

    I was listening to a YouTube video on the history of X15 rocket airplanes. All of sudden, out of the blue a translucent back message drops top down, stops the video, locks up my MacBook Pro screen and demands that I restart my lapTop by first holding down my power switch, then turn the lapTop back on. This has never happened to me before. The message was in black & white, and in about 6 languages: English, French, Spanish, Dutch, Japanese, Chinese. Does any one recognize what this might be?
    The Computer turned back on just fine as if nothing had Now I am freeking out that they could be reading my key strokes or something. Could they have used this tactic to install malicious software on my computer by first taking away my ability to do anything about it being that I am not a software engineer? Can any one think of anything simillar? I reported this as a bug to APPLE the regular way, then cleared my Safari cookies, then run software update which returned nothing new as in " your software is up to date at this time."
    Can any one please help?

    Hi stedman1,
    Thank you so much. This seems to make sense to me now. I was freaking out a bit that some hacker could be messing with my MacBook Pro. I will be monitoring this issue from now on as it has never happened before.

  • I have a 2006 15" Macbook Pro with a broken Superdrive and my external USB one just quit working

    Why can my LG Portable Super Multi Drive (GP08NU6B) burn discs, but not read them? Right after I burn a DVD successfully, I stick it back in the drive and it says "The disk you have inserted is not readable by this computer"  I have a 2006 15" Macbook Pro with a broken Superdrive, and this external disk drive is the only optical drive that worked via USB.  This external drive was bought in 2010 and worked fine up until a month ago. This is supposed to be a Plug and Play device, and LG assures me the drivers are already included in Mac OSX,  yet it seems somehow my Macbook lost the drivers and it won't let me watch DVDs now or recognize any discs at all!
    How can I find and somehow reinstall the firmware for this optical drive?

    Sounds more like a hardware issue to me.

  • Cleaning MacBook Pro screens

    Does anyone know if it is safe to use Kensington's Screen Guardian to clean a MacBook Pro screen? The product contains: Water, 2-Butoxyethanol and Ethanol. Also can this cleaner be used on an iMac and a iPod Touch screens. Thanks for your help.

    Apple recommends against using any cleaner with alcohol or ammonia to clean any LCD screen. Those chemicals may damage the screen coating. The best way to clean a laptop screen is to use a microfiber wipe (such as those sold to clean eyeglasses) or a damp ( not wet) soft lint-free cloth. For more information, see:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3226
    Butyl cellusolve, a component of Screen Guardian (according to their material safety data sheet), is neurotoxic among other toxicities, by the way, so I'd avoid it even if it weren't risky on LCDs.
    Regards.

  • Comparing MacBook Pro screen with Intel iMac

    I'm wondering if anyone here that has a MacBook Pro has had a chance to compare its quality to another mac's screen. I've been working on trying to colour-calibrate my MacBook Pro using SuperCal, and I've noticed that the colour on the MacBook Pro is nowhere near as nice as on the intel iMac.
    Obviously expecting a laptop screen to look as good as the larger iMacs is a bit much, but I was still very surprised at the difference in quality.
    Anyone else noticed this?

    The MacBook Pro screen is not as bright or vibrant as any plug-in type LCD I've compared it to.
    However, it is much nicer than any of my previous laptops (including an Aluminum Powerbook G4). It is significantly brighter, with somewhat better color.
    It would be nice if the laptop had a better backlight that could turn on when plugged in, but that's probably up there with my wish for a 2nd processor that would turn on during plug-in as well...
    Cheers,
    Josh

  • Macbook pro screen dims after waking from sleep?

    Does anyone know why my macbook pro screen dims when waking from sleep or waking from my screen saver? I can't get it to stop doing this. Thanks.

    It sounds like I have the same thing happening. It's more like the colors are washed out, like there is less contrast. I have a hot corner set up for my screen saver. Once I activate the screen saver for a second and then deactivate it, the Macbook screen goes back to normal. I have a 30" Samsung 305T monitor set up as a second (main) screen for when I'm working at home, which is most of the time. I haven't had it unplugged from the Macbook since this started, so I don't know if it happens by itself. I do know that the Samsung looks fine when waking up from the screen saver at the same time.
    I tried to find others with this problem in this forum, but got tired of looking through all the other posts that had nothing to do with this problem.
    Can anyone help us?

  • Macbook Pro Screen wakes up from sleep without any acitvity

    I've set my MacBook Pro screen to turn off after two minutes of activity. I've had this setting for all my Macs and I've never had any problems.
    Recently though, my MacBook Pro's screen turns on by itself without me touching the computer or any mouse attached to it. What could be the problem?
    It's really annoying when the screen turns on at night.
    Any help will be appreciated.

    I have the same problem. I brought up console and there is nothing at the same time as the screen turning on. My situation is as follows:
    I put on a podcast. The only applications running are firefox and iTunes. I turn the screen brightness all the way down with the F1 key, then mouse over the corner of the screen set to turn the monitor off.
    After about 6 minutes, the screen comes back on at brightness level 1. If I touch a button or the trackpad the screen turns back off. It stays off for about 6 more minutes and does it again.
    Edit: I just checked the logs with all showing and the only thing I see is a Wake Reason = EC LID0.
    Any tips?

  • What color calibration tool do I use to calibrate my MacBook Pro screen to get accurate color when I print my my photos?

    What color calibration tool do I use to calibrate my MacBook Pro screen in order to get accurate color when I print my photos?

    This what I have been trying......  Maybe my eyes are screwed up or don't understand the process....
    What I have been trying to do is squint and make the apple disappear by moving the sliders around in each step. Is that correct?

    My 13 in MacBook Pro screen randomly goes black.  It was purchased in 2010.  It's a 10.6.8.  It started just recently.  The only thing I can think of is is that my 7 year old son played an online game with the computer.  I did check the "hot corners" settings and that is not the issue.  When the screen goes black, I generally end of foce shutting it down with the power button.
