My macbook air screen is black, the screen won't respond but the sound and brightness works fine - any solutions?

I treid letting it run flat, then charging it but it went back to the black screen. Sometimes the mouse icon can be seen and I can move it but it will vanish sometimes.

Could be a problem with the LCD or it's cable, this seems like a hardware fault. I would go to the Apple store before its to late and before you run out of warranty (you get a 1 year warranty) There no way of fixing this without opening the computer which would void the warranty. If you have ran out of warranty i would go on eBay and look for a inverter, the cable or possibly the LCD apple would be able to tell you what it is without you having warranty and try the repair yourself or you could pay Apples overpriced repair.

  • I dropped my iPhone in water for about 30 seconds. The sounds and everything works fine, and I'm getting all text and email notifications however the screen is black. Also, I can see water that is stuck in the camera. I have the phone in a bag of rice

    Dropped my phone in water. Sound and vibrations are working but screen won't turn on. I can see a little water in the camera. I currently have the phone in a bag of rice. HELP! :)

    Leave it in the rice for 6 or 7 days changing rice even couple of days.
    If after that it still doesn't work take it to Apple and purchase an out of warranty rteplacement for it.

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    You have two options:
    1. If you have another Mac or PC, use Remote Disc to install it on your Mac > http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5287
    2. Buy an external optical drive and use it to install Microsoft Office.
    Both options work correctly. If you are going to use the optical drive once, use Remote Disc, but it will be much slower than using an optical drive connected to the computer

    Not at this time. It would also be great to have an adjustment for sensitivity too.

  • Has anyone experienced regular adjustments to the sound and brightness done by the laptop itself?

    I have a 2010 MacBook Pro i7, 15" notebook.  Without adjustments by myself, I find the sound and brightness seem to regress to the lower levels.  Has anyone experienced this and what have you done to fix it?

    Well, well, well... Nothing has changed. Somehow or another Adobe has managed to truly take control of Windows 7.
    I updated Bridge or more correctly... The Cloud did and every files extension in Bridge had 'none' as the application. Lovely stuff. Now All I want to know is why did Adobe take control of Windows file manager and cause this much grief?
    I almost never use the clunky and often impossible to manage Bridge. Simple freeware... Irfanview is way more elegant than Bridge and 10 times more useful IMO.
    Well thanks for the heads up Curt. I never considered the full implication of giving Adobe the freedom to add and remove whatever they wanted to... Forget the don't fix what isnt broken thing... Just pour everything we've got in the cloud onto all the  members PCs, eh? Hard drives are cheap and hey, what are forums for when things go wrong if it isn't to keep Adobe informed of bugs they can silently fix and pour 'em back into the cloud as fixes.
    Ha,ha you just gotta love progress eh?
    This is really going to take on. I can see it now... For every mess up of a PC -- "THE CLOUD DID IT"!!!

    Thank you everyone for your suggestions and help.  Ended up logging out of my apple ID account.  Of note, when I did I did a quick test and checked out both the movies and tv show options, and it all worked perfectly.  I then logged back in, and now all my purchased and rentals are available which makes sense.  I guess with the update there was some weird bit of trons that required one to log out then back in.  Probably doing a rest in between may not hurt for some.  Thanks again for all the assistance. Cheers.
    It looks like there is a Apple doc for this problem here -> Apple TV: Unable to access Movies, TV Shows, or other iTunes features after updating

  • My two month old iphone lightning cable is corroded and not working. Any solutions to this apparently common problem on the horizon?

    My two month old iPhone lightning cable is suddenly corroded and not working. Any solutions to this apparently common problem on the horizon?

    You bought a used iPhone. Amazon is not an authorized supplier of iPhones, nor are any of the 3rd parties that sell iPhones there.
    You can make an appointment at the genius bar and have it looked at.
    If you are very very lucky, it is still under warranty and it wasn't opened or otherwise tampered with before you bought it. In which case, Apple will replace it under warranty.
    If it's not under warranty, they will replace it for $199.
    If it has been opened or tampered with, they won't touch it.

    If you Go to the app store on your phone, then go to updates you should have a purchased icon at the top.
    Click on that and it will show the apps you have downloaded before as they are stored on the icloud.
    Then you should be able to click on the app and redownload it, not sure if it will charge but its worth a try.

  • Adjusting the sound and brightness of the screen

    If I understand properly, Arrays are in essence an arraylist of arraylists.Arrays are fixed-sized, ordered containers of data (either primitive data or object references).
    ArrayList is actually built on arrays.
    Regardless, I'm not that familiar with how to work with them.Until you familiarize yourself with them, you won't be able to solve this problem (and many others as well).
    As diligently as I've been googling, I cannot find a way to explicitly set the saturation or brightness for an RGB object, possibly because that RGB object is a Color, and if I get you, I can't set the S or B for an already instantiated Color.A Color object represents a Color defined by it's RGB values.
    The Color class provides methods to calculate the HSV values for a given set of RGB values and the other way around.
    The Color class provides a method to create a new Color object given the RGB values.
    Sounds like that's everything you need to solve your problem.

  • My MacBook Air screen won't turn on, yet it works perfectly on and external monitor.

    Hi,
    I bought my MacBook Air about a year ago and I've never had any issues until now, basically when it powers up, it chimes, it powers up, the caps lock light works, it'll even play music off my iTunes if I enter my password, but the screen does nothing, it just remains black, I ordered a Thunderbolt to HDMI cable to try to bypass the screen and connect it to my television, for purposes of backing up my work for the company websites and all the data I intended to keep, it seems to work perfectly on here, so I was wondering it is just that the display is dead? or is there anything else anyone could think of before I have to take it to the apple store (which our nearest is around just under 50 miles out of the way!)
    So any ideas guys?
    Thanks
    Dan

  • New Macbook air screen won't wake up after going to sleep - what's this?

    When watching a movie on Netflix, for example, since I'm not touching the keyboard, the computer goes to sleep - sort of.  The screen fades briefly and if I fail to notice quickly enough to touch a key, the screen goes black.  The sound continues, however, and the keyboard is lit.  I can't wake the screen back up.  I have to restart it.
    I've had the computer for less than a week. 
    What's going on - is my new MacBook Air defective or is there something I can do to stop this annoying glitch from occurring?

    There is no need to diagnose such an issue, you just bought it and paid for service and 14 day exchange.
    Return it for another unit, others here will concur on that fact.
