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.

  • The left side of my display/screen is darker than the right side.

    Running a 27 inch, Mid 2011 iMac.   Left side of screen is obviously darker than the right side.  Any one else have this happen?  Any solutions?

    Please make a Genius Appointment and take it in for service. Either the display is bad, the GPU has failed, or the display backlighting has failed.

  • [Solved] On fullscreen flash videos (like on YouTube) there is a black bar on the right side of the screen, and I must click slightly to the right of onscreen buttons instead of directly on them while this is happening.

    On fullscreen flash videos (like on YouTube) there is a black bar on the right side of the screen, and I must click slightly to the right of onscreen buttons instead of directly on them while this is happening. It's like I should click where they should be, not where they are. The exact same problem happens on Google Chrome, but not on Internet Explorer. It also happens on some games I installed like, "Crysis".

    Nevermind, I solved the problem by downloading this:

  • Black bar along the right side and the bottom of the screen- DV5-1007ca

    I have DV5 1007ca running Vista Home Premium 32-bit.My computer seems to suddenly think my monitor is a different size. I have a 3-inch black bar down the right side of the screen and about a 1/4 inch black bar along the bottom. My windows are still fully functional and completely fill the portion of the screen that is active. There is no loss of image, it's just framed by the black bars. If I do a Print screen and paste it into a document, the black bars are not there. It's as if the computer thinks the screen is a different physical size. This situation is present all the time, even when starting up. This is what I have done so far: -adjusted screen resolution settings = no change-rolled back my display drivers = no change-re-updated my display drivers = no change-rolled back my BIOS = no change-re-updated my BIOS = no change-System recovery = no change I searched posts here and elsewhere but the results were inconclusive. A couple of posters reported a virtually identical problem and were told they needed to replace either their screens or their graphics cards. Unfortunately, none of those posters ever reported back so it was unclear whether or not the issue was resolved. I doubt it is the screen since screen problem symptoms usually involve bits of screen not working and parts of the display being lost. My screen seems to be working fine, it just thinks it's smaller than it is. The graphics card is highly suspect. What's funny is that a little while ago, I started up my computer without changing anything and all was well for about a week and then it went back to the same old issue. Any helpful advice would be appreciated. This issue is driving me nuts!

    I found a real solution that is hardware related. I was given a laptop with this exact same problem for free since my friend thought it wasn't worth paying to repair a 3 year old laptop, and was dead for almost a year (I think they manufactured these in 2008, but HP has almost no specs or info about them, specially ours; DV5T-1100) I have the solution to this problem, and is a solution not found almost anywhere using Google, and HP support doesn't want to tell you, simply don't know, or would make them look bad. I was able to fix it myself by using a rework station (basically a dedicated hot air gun) that I used to "reflow" the graphics chipset's connection to the board (keep reading, because this method may vary on result details). This simply means that I opened the laptop, removed the copper heatsink connected to the fan to expose both the micro-processor, and the faulty graphics chipset, and started cutting  soda cans, or thick tin foil to cover the areas AROUND the graphics chipset, and leave the graphics chipset exposed so that the really hot air would concentrate only on TOP of the graphics chipset. Then, I put the device on 220 degress, with the tip of the gun 2 inches over the chipset, and circled the gun around heating that sucker for 5 minutes, then I did a 3 minute rest to cool off, and a final 5 minutes reheat again. Luckily enough it WORKED!, and it has been working for almost 10 months with heavy use. HOWEVER... doing a "reflow" like this on a micro component isn't reallt a proper fix. Sure you may get lucky, and I read of instances where the fix lasted for years, but also just months. This is because the problem is the old solder that connects each "ball" point under the chip to the motherboard may have a micro ultra tiny imperfections and misconnections on a few or many of the connected points cause by a long period of overheat of the chip due to both, a very bad heatsink, and heatflow of heat inside the laptop, and also (and usually) really bad maintenance on the user's part by having a really dirty and dusty vents, overuse, and blocking the ventilation exhaust of the laptop itself over time. A proper fix of this chip issue is another process called "reballing", where they actually properly overheat that particular chipset so much using IR heat, and an expensive machine, to "loosen" the solder of all connections and remove the chip itself to both, clean the old solder on the chip, and the old solder left on the motherboard, and actually REPLACE all solder with new lead solder. However, this process has to be very precise (hence the machine), and it maybe costly, and there's also the fact that MANY scammers out there either never really do a true reballing, ans just do a reflow to scam you, or don't have the experience to do a proper reball of the chip. So whose at fault here? Uneducated users that neglect learning how to properly maintain a laptop off its main enemies (dust and heat) no matter how good the hardware heatsinks may be, or is it poor hardware design by the manufacturer, where other brands or even other families of series off the same brand have actually better noticeable hardware design than these DV series that are so notorious to overheat easier than others out there? Well, I don't know, but I do know that you should be VERY careful having these laptops repaired and be scammed, because hey! Even so called "refurbished" or even so called "brand new" entire motherboard out there on Ebay are just bad reflow jobs with little to no warranty on them on purpose, to only last a few months on purpose. So, watch out, and THINK! before spending money on a beat up poor donkey.

  • Regza LCD HDTV 52XF550U has wide black stripes on the right side

    Hi, my 2008 REGZA LCD 52XF550U has wide black stripes on the right side.  I think the problem started within 24 months from my purchase.  And the stripes are getting wider. 
    I have tried to reset the setup, power off and on, all to no avail.  See attached picture.
    If someone can shed light on this problem and its (preferably permanent) fix and approx. cost, it will be greatly appreciated.  I could simply chug this Toshiba LCD and buy another non-Toshiba HDTV, but I think that would be wasteful if it can be fixed. 
    Regards,

    Call apple or take it into an Apple store. What's wrong is beyond a user fix.

  • MY IPHONE SCREEN HAS GONE SEPIA. The RIGHT SIDE OF THE SCREEN IS BLACK!

    Hello, my iPhone screen has turned sepia. No one say 'click the home button 3 times' or 'turn white on black off' because I have tried them!
    Basically on the right side of the screen there is a black part. About a quarter of the screen it fills.
    It is sepia too. It is really hard to see things. Also, say if i am on the home screen, then i open settings; the home screen would be in the background!!
    HELP!

  • The left side of my iPad mini is darker than the right side.

    I have done a hard reset and adjusted brightness but it doesn't help. Any help would be appreciated.  Thanks in advance.

    Make an appointment at your local Apple store, take it in and have them look at it. In case they decide to replace it, you may want to do a sync and backup before you go.

  • I bought an IPAD air from state and the screen is not working correctly and right now i'm in Egypt ,can i send my ipad to service in Egypt and the warranty will work in Egypt or what?

    i bought an IPAD air (32 gb wifi only) from USA just one month ago and the screen is not working correctly(picture attached) and right now i'm in Egypt ,can i send my ipad to service in Egypt and the warranty will work in Egypt or what?

    Have you tried a soft-reset to see if that fixes it ? You might be able to get warranty service in Egypt for your iPad, but the warranty includes :
    IMPORTANT RESTRICTION FOR iPHONE AND iPAD SERVICE.
    Apple may restrict warranty service for iPhone and iPad to the country where Apple or its Authorized Distributors originally sold the device.
    As it's wifi-only you should have a better chance of it being serviced under warranty, but there are no guarantees, it might depend upon the repairer.

  • Hi, My problem is I cannot connect my apple tv to my account, the user name and password are definitely correct, I upgraded the software, reset the device, but no chance. What should I do?

    Hi, My problem is I cannot connect my apple tv to my account, the user name and password are definitely correct, I upgraded the software, reset the device, but no chance. What should I do?

    Try this:
    Reboot device by pressing both the home button and sleep/wake (power) buttons at the same time for 10-15 seconds until the apple logo appears on the screen, then let go.
    If that doesn't work then reset the device by going to settings/general/reset/reset all settings  (or for network connection issues 'reset network settings').
    (no media or data will be deleted from the device, this will only take a minute).

  • Why am I losing the right side of my frames?

    I am working with video originally shot on handled camer with an SD card that has then been copied to a DVD.  The VOB files are 720x480 and 29FPS.  When I add the media I have tried several project pre-set settings, however all of them are cutting off the right side of the frame of the film and I need that for my clips and to make my movie.  How do I get the entire frame to be imported and available?

    A.T. Sorry about that, I was including them in the emails but didn't realize they weren't posting.  Here are the steps I followed and the screenshots.
    Changed settings to DV Standard
    Checked “Force selected Project Setting on this project” and clicked OK
    Went to add media and chose a file from the disk.
    Below is how it appears on the monitor.  As you can see, the right side is cut off as it should have the full date (To be clear, it is not just the date I am interested in, but the rest of that frame.
    I confirmed that the magnification “Fit” was checked and went to Edit Preferences and there is a check next to default scale to frame size and none of that fixed the issue.

    Try:                           
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try another cable
    - Try on another computer                            
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.
