Working fine just with black screen

Hi
My MacBook Pro is working with black screen and TV out not working.
I am sure Operating System is working fine.
What do you think the problem from?
Is it from the screen or the Motherboard?

Hi Sam7ane,
How have you verified that the machine is working fine? Are you able to Target Disk the machine and access the data? Or do you have another Mac to use screen sharing?
If the display on the machine and the video out component are both not working this would typically indicate a logic board (motherboard) problem, versus the screen. It's possible that both are problematic, but from a troubleshooting perspective I'd be inclined to point to the logic board versus the LVDS cable.
Given that it's an original MacBook Pro, or rather that's the form you're in, the machine is out of Apple Care but hopefully you have access to a local repair/service center?

I spilled pop on my macbook pro, mostly on speakers and screen, however the macbook still works fine, should i contact them and ask what should i do or try to dry it off.....please help??

Hi , i spilled sprite on my macbook pro mostly onto speakers but however, i dried it off immideately and the macbook is working fine so far. Speakers still work normal but i am worried thatere might be some problems later on. Please suggest me some good ideas to furhter mae sure that the mac is fine?

I suggest that you take the MBP into an Apple store genius bar for a free evaluation. There are liquid sensors inside and they should check if any have been activated. This may give you a clue as to what you may expect regarding future reliability.
Ciao.

Top 2 inches of the window does not respond. tool bar works fine, just nothing below the toolbar for about two inches, can't log out of email or facebook. can't click to new links in that area. Explorer works fine, just started yesterday 10-25-11

no responses to any hyperlinks or buttons in this area. any button or hyperlinks that scroll into this area go dead as well, and when you scroll down they work fine. reduced the window but still does it.

Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
*Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

I am trying to buy something on itunes on new iphone 5 and can't answer the security questions. Answers I thought I knew don't work. No rescue email option, and no other option I can see. Help!

Trying to download app on new iphone 5. I cannot remember answers to security questions. There is no rescue email option or any other option that I can find. Any suggestions? Help!

I just went through a similar situation. Here is what I did.
Note: Before starting your account MUST NOT be locked. If you have locked the account out, you must wait 8 hours for it to reset before proceeding.
Call 800 My iPhone. You can bypass the VRU by pressing 0 which takes you straight through to a support person. This person will not be able to help you directly but can put you through to account security support. Explain your situation and ask to be put through to the account security department.
Before account security can reset your security questions, they will need to verify your identity. They can do this by using any combination of 2 of the following methods
1) By correctly entering the answer to only 1 of your security questions.
2) By verifying a credit card associated with your apple id
3) By sending a verification code to your phone which you will then read back to them.
If you do not have a credit card associated with your Apple ID, add one prior to calling them. Go to Settings ... iTunes & App Stores ... then click on your Apple ID (top of screen)
Now, select View Apple Id from the popup menu, enter your password if prompted, click on Payment Information. You will now be able to add your credit card info. You can remove it later on by selecting 'None' on the same screen.
After the account security person verifies your identity, s/he will reset your security questions. You will then be able to go to http://appleid.apple.com sign in and enter new answers to the security questions which, of course, you will write down and save.
While you are in there, be sure to enter a 'Rescue Email Address' in the event you forget or loseyour answers, the system be able to mail them to you and you can avoid a redux of this whole exercise.
This worked for me, hope it does for you. Good Luck!

I accidentally left my phone in my work truck and the temperature got too hot..Since I cooled down, everything works fine except when I make and receive calls, the person can't hear me at all :(. Does anyone possiblly know what I can do ?

My iPhone 4s got too hot and since any calls I make or receive, the person on the opposite end can't hear me at all... Any suggestions?

I have had this happen to me on 3GS, 4 and 4s. Usually the solution is one of the following:
1- If your volume indicator says headphones even though they are not plugged in, then:
Stick your headphones into the headphone jack and then remove quickly.
2. If that does not work Power your phone off. Then when restarting Reset the phone by pressing the home button and the power button at the same time until the apple logo appears.
3. Make sure you have not chosen to send audio to an Airplay device such as Apple Tv.
Hope one of these works for you

I bought my ipad mini in the UK and it worked fine, I live in Cyprus and since being back i can not access any web sites

My web browser( Google ) home page appears but when i type in the web address it does not access them it just constantly appears to be loading.
Any help would be appreciated
Thanks

there are a lot of complaints here about wifi issues with the ipad mini - all seam to deal with 3rd party routers. you might want to check these Threads out.
did you delete the wifi network on your ipad and reconnect? Are you using WPA2? Did you select TKIP/AES or only one of them? Does your ipad get an ip address?

Will cables CAT6a (Shielded Twisted Pair) work (will the grounding work?) with Airport Extreme (5th and 6th generation) ? I can see a little metal edges on the Airport Extreme 6th generation, is that the grounding for STP CAT6a cables?

I recently had to change the cabling for my house and since I would have to buy all new, I used CAT6a cables, and I noticed that they are all Shielded Twisted Pair (STP), which meand that they have an extra layer of protection against interferences. The RJ45 Connectors are all made of metal on these cables.
The main router in my house will be a 6th generation Ariport Extreme, and I noticed that on the Airport Connectors, there are to metal edges on the RJ45 female. Is that the groudinging for the STP cables? I noticed the same metal edges on the Airport Extreme 5th generation.
Thank you,

Yes, but the power cable on the AE has no gnd pin so there is no actual grounding.. cables should only be grounded at one end anyway.. but the metal tabs are linked to the metal frame of the AE or TC..
At least in all the models up to AC .. it is still out of my reach cost wise. As I would have to pull it apart and plug my meter in there.. still they will eventually start coming in for repair.

My imac screen works fine but it keeps flikering and freezing whats wrong with it

my imac screen works fine but it keeps flikering and freezing whats wrong with it? theres no crack or problem with it it just freeze's ande flikers

It sounds as if your graphics chip (on the logic board) is failing. The other answer could be that your screen is not well, but I lean more towards the graphics chip. If you have Apple care or are still under warranty, call Apple.

You need to sync them in iTunes and download them there, then simply open them from the folder where they are stored in other programs.

My power mac g4 was working fine i hit a key and it shut down and now it has the symble of the firewire slot floting around the screen and i can not get it to start back up

my power mac g4 was working fine i hit a key and it shut down and know it has a symble floting around the screen like the firewirs symble and ot wont turn back on how do i fix it

It does sound like the T key is stuck.
One way to test to see if the keyboard is at fault is to disconnect the keyboard, then start up the Mac.
Note - on that model, you can force a shutdown by holding in the power button (the one on the front panel of the machine) for 8 to 10 seconds.
You can also force a restart by pressing the small convex (bulges out slightly) button under the power button on the front panel (it's the one on the left).

My Macbook (2009 White) Has had water spilled onto it, it all works apart from the screen. When connected to an external display it works fine, just not on the Macbook itself. Does anyone know how to fix this?

Take it to Apple and ask them to fix the physical damage the water caused.

Here's the error message I get.
Note the TC is connected to my Airport Extreme via ethernet and my iMac is also connected to the AX via ethernet so it's not a wifi issue.
I can see the TC in the finder so it's not 'gone' from the network either.
Also note that just then the TM system pref pane was claiming a backup error, citing my 'network password' and still refusing to backup. I waited 5 minutes and did some tidying of my office while I pondered this and then tried again and voila it worked ok.

HT4113 So I got the ipad for christmas, turned it on & it worked fine. Later I entered a passcode. Now I can remember the passcode & the ipad is locked for 60 mins. The ipad was never configured to a computer at the beginning. someone help.

If You Are Locked Out Or Have Forgotten Your Passcode
iTunes 10 for Mac- Update and restore software on iPod, iPhone, or iPad
iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen
iOS- Understanding passcodes
     If you have forgotten your Restrictions code, then follow the instructions
     below but DO NOT restore any previous backup. If you do then you will
     simply be restoring the old Restrictions code you have forgotten. This
     same warning applies if you need to restore a clean system.
A Complete Guide to Restore or Recover Your iDevice (if You Forget Your Passcode)
If you need to restore your device or ff you cannot remember the passcode, then you will need to restore your device using the computer with which you last synced it. This allows you to reset your passcode and re-sync the data from the device (or restore from a backup). If you restore on a different computer that was never synced with the device, you will be able to unlock the device for use and remove the passcode, but your data will not be present. Refer to Updating and restoring iPhone, iPad and iPod touch software.
Try restoring the iOS device if backing up and erasing all content and settings doesn't resolve the issue. Using iTunes to restore iOS devices is part of standard isolation troubleshooting. Restoring your device will delete all data and content, including songs, videos, contacts, photos, and calendar information, and will restore all settings to their factory condition.
Before restoring your iOS device, Apple recommends that you either sync with iTunes to transfer any purchases you have made, or back up new data (data acquired after your last sync). If you have movie rentals on the device, see iTunes Store movie rental usage rights in the United States before restoring.
Follow these steps to restore your device:
     1. Verify that you are using the latest version of iTunes before attempting to update.
     2. Connect your device to your computer.
     3. Select your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch when it appears in iTunes under Devices.
     4. Select the Summary tab.
     5. Select the Restore option.
     6. When prompted to back up your settings before restoring, select the Back Up
         option (see in the image below). If you have just backed up the device, it is not
         necessary to create another.
     7. Select the Restore option when iTunes prompts you (as long as you've backed up,
         you should not have to worry about restoring your iOS device).
     8. When the restore process has completed, the device restarts and displays the Apple
         logo while starting up:
           After a restore, the iOS device displays the "Connect to iTunes" screen. For updating
          to iOS 5 or later, follow the steps in the iOS Setup Assistant. For earlier versions of
          iOS, keep your device connected until the "Connect to iTunes" screen goes away or
          you see "iPhone is activated."
     9. The final step is to restore your device from a previous backup. If you do not have a
          backup to restore, then restore as New.
