Hey Julesbules,
Thanks for the question. I understand you are experiencing issues with the display on your MacBook Pro. The following resource may provide a solution:
Apple computers: Troubleshooting issues with video on internal or external displays
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1573
While you should definitely give all of the troubleshooting steps a whirl, definitely make sure to follow the steps in this section:
Reset the system
You can reset the Mac's parameter RAM and SMC.
Thanks,

My macbookpro 15" screen has vertical blue lines
Hello,
I have a Macbook Pro 15" (mid 2010) 2.53GHz Interl Core i5 running OSX Lion 10.7.4.
Generally the computer and screen are in good condition and have had no damage.
The screen has Vertical blue lines and there is a tint of blue generally. The startup apple grey screen however is perfect, it is only when it enters the login screen that the lines appear. All the colours are off. Other than these lines the computer works perfectly
The computer was used yesterday (09 June 2012) without a problem for approx 1hour. It was then left for the day indoors on a desk out of direct sunlight. The computer was switched on later that evening and the problem started to appear
I have already tried to reset the PRAM and SMC with no affect.
I also read that it may be a cable problem, however as the startup screen works perfectly i question this.
Please can you help!
Thanks in advance,
Alex.I suggest you take it to an Apple store genius bar or a repair facility for evaluation. This is most likely a hardware problem.

my laptop screen has gone blank probably due to graphic card problem.i need to back up my content as i have bought a new mac and do not intend on repairing the old one. please help

If you are buying a new mac, Apple will do the migration for you, I would let them do it.
If you have an external monitor, I would try to do a data backup before doing anything.
Could also be your drive has already failed, or logic card. Again I would take it the Apple store, and have them deal with it since you bought a new Mac, they would do this for free, and the shoulder the responsibility.

Basics first. iMac G4 running OS 10.3.9
Asking this for my dad so hopefully passing on right info.
He had shut down the computer everything running fine. On reboot everything starts up fine, no problems except that the screen now has a pink hue to it. Icons, text, background, everything. It is usable but hard on the eyes. I gave him what I thought was the command to zap the video ram but it didn't work. Suggestions?Hi,
Not good!....

My Mac Mini screen has a blue tint
I got my Mac Mini around a week ago, one equipped with intel core duo. When I originally turned it on, the screen was fine until a popup came up and said that Mini's with intel processors that a firmware update was required. I followed the instructions and did the update, and when the update was complete the computer restarted and the screen had a blue-green tint to it and has had it since. I've tried to adjust it via the color and brightness on the screen but it's not working.
First open the Universal Access preference pane and in the 'seeing' tab, make sure that the slider for 'enhance contrast' is all the way to the left. Next, open the Displays preference panel and click on the 'color' tab. The click the 'calibrate' button. This will take you through a color/brightness/contrast set up procedure that may eliminate the problem.
There are two options in the calibration process, standard, which is the default option and has fewer adjustment screens, and expert, which is selected by checking the box for it on the first calibration screen and offers more adjustments. You can't do any harm with either since any settings you create can be discarded, or profile(s) you save can be deleted or ignored if necessary.
This won't necessarily resolve the problem, but if not, then it would indicate that there's an issue with the hardware - possibly just the connector on the back of the system, which needs to be fastened really tightly. If you can't readily resolve this, since your system is so new, I'd then suggest you call Apple. -

IPad screen has gone blue/green and will not work
My iPad 1 screen has gone to black when it is turned on and willl not work. Screen stays blue/green for about 30 seconds and then turns off. Unit is charged fully and has been updated to current operating software. Gerry
Have you tried a reset ? Press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider if it appears), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.
If that doesn't work then you could see if you can get it into recovery mode and restore it to your last backup : http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1808
But you might need to contact Apple. -

Laptop screen has a light white square with an orange dot.
I just installed a new screen to replace a cracked one. When the systems first turns on and powers down a faint 2"x2" white square with a 1/4" orange dot appears. It's most visible with the lights off. This has happened with 2 replacement screens and am now wondering if the problem is within the laptop itself. I've added a screenshot of it with a circle around the orange dot. Any thoughts would be much appreciated.
JohnHi
Do a hard reset first
Try downloading & Installing the updated BIOS and graphics drivers from your HP product site to rule out software display problems.

Screen has a red hue (iPad1)
Hello.
I've got a noticable red hue on the screen of my iPad1. It is clearly visible (even more when there's another ipad side by side) and it drives me mad.
Is this a well known issue and am I eligible for an exchange? I saw a few people reporting a red hue months ago and they all had their iPad exchanged in Apple Stores.
Unfortunatly, there are no official Apple Stores in Belgium, so I may have to send it to the repair service for days before getting an answer.Hi,
If you haven't tried the Apple online Brussels/Belgium store, click here.

Purchased new iPad 4th generation, screen has warm yellowish hue to it.
I just received my brand new iPad 4th generation, when I compare the screen to my current 3rd generation there is a def yellowish warm tint to the new ipads screen.
I probably wouldn't even have noticed it if I did have them both side by side for comparison.
I have included a couple of photos for you guys to see!
You can tell me which one you think looks 'wrong'
My question is basically will the screen tint change gradually over time???
Or should i swap it for a new one?
The tint is over the entire screen.
Many thanks...Any ideas?
