My screen on my pro has gone pixilated pink?

my screen on my pro has gone pixilated pink? Started out where all black spots were grenn,  then changed to pink.   took it to a local mac shop and they ewere stumped and suggeseted a $600 dollar repair.  before i commit just want to check if anyone else has had this issue

That basically answers it.
OK on external monitor........but still bad on new LCD attached
Its either the monitor cable going from logic to monitor, or a bad connection on logic where said cable connects.
(Id lay speculative odds 7 to 1 its a bad monitor cable)
If you luck out, its a $10 cable and labor.
If not, youre talking about a logic board.
Your problem is all but diagnosed,...........now for a repair.

    This is the second macbook pro i have owned in the past two weeks.  I am ready to return it for good if this is a chronic issue. Please help if you have had this same issue.

    Try a SMC reset:

    If no joy, take it back, and take full advantage of your warranty!

  • The screen of my iPod has gone all red.

    The screen of my iPod has gone all red and the whites have become blue rain like thing. Its one and a half year old iPad. Really disappointed

    "Not to my knowledge."
    Hmmm. Are you being completely open with us?
    If it was dropped by friend or family, other threads here on this phenomemna indicate slapping it on the back a couple of times with increasing intensity caused the screen to return to normal....but no comment on how long it remained normal. Do a search on this forum for "red screen."
    If you can state with certainty that it was not dropped, and if it is still under extended warranty, and if the Apple store believes you, they may give you a rebuilt one.

    try a reset, hold down the home/sleep button together until you see the apple logo and then release, then wait for the phone to boot back up.

    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.

  • 1st gen Mac Pro has gone... dark?

    I have a 1st generation Mac Pro, 2.66 x 2, with NVIDIA 7x00 (GeForce GT? can't remember which and the card has absolutely no part number I can find that is searchable on the NVIDIA site, or intelligible to the human mind). The Mac Pro locked up when I was syncing my iPad (I love that thing!) and I thought, no big deal I'll just turn it off and turn it back. It's frozen up on me about 10 times since I bought it in 2006. It's been a stellar - and stable - piece of machinery. Anyway, no dice on restart. The screen is dark and says No Signal. No signal? How can that be?
    At first I thought it was the power supply, but then I knew it wasn't - the fans start up, the drive spins up, the little red lights are lit on the motherboard. I've taken all the drives out and reseated them, taken out the video card and reseated it, unplugged everything from the computer and let it sit,and then just plugged in the power cord and keyboard and mouse. Still no go. I thought about beating it with a bat but thought that might be counterproductive.
    I'm hoping it's not the graphics card. Is there a way to check anything else to verify that before I spend the bucks? And if I do have to get a new one, could someone recommend a decent replacement?
    Thanks in advance for any help or direction,
    Rube

    Okay, so I guess the CPUA and CPUB have to do with ram memory. I have reseated all memory - no change. I have reinstalled the original Apple memory config (512 x 4) - no change. I have reset the SMC - no change.
    Well, whatever it turns out to be, this will the first of my Macs to go down hard. All my other macs (SE, Centris 650, 9500, G4) have always worked fine and still work. I hope I can figure this out.

  • I've lost quicktime pro and can't find it. I had to re-install my HD and now QT Pro has gone and I can't find details of when I bought it.

    I'm 10.6.8 and I use a Macbook Pro. I bought QT pro a while ago and since I've re installed my stuff all I've got is QT and I need the older version (that I paid for) to edit.
    Any help will be much appreciated.

    It's not the player I need
    QuickTime Pro is not a separate application, so you won't find it by searching your system or by looking for a download. A Pro key just unlocks the extra features of QuickTime Player and the QuickTime browser plugin. You need the QuickTime Player 7 Kirk and I have referred to; only that version can be "unlocked" with a Pro key.
    I can't find that either. I've trawled my email and can't find it.
    Log into your account in the Apple Store and click on the Downloadable Software Purchases link. You should find the key shown there. If not, you may need to purchase a new key.
