Privacy Screen for Macbook 13.3"?

I ordered the 3M 13.3" Privacy screen, but it's not wide enough. It's more of a 13.3" square. Is there one that fits the current Macbook 13.3" models? There doesn't appear to be one on the 3M web site. Any other mfgs?

Hi PHL07,
Welcome to macbook forum,
yes, that wont fit, you should order one with W after the model number like pf14.1W, unfortunately 3M doesn't have the 13.3 widescreen model right now.
I try to look around the sites and haven't found one yet on other brand (except goofy laptop hood), but you can try to buy bigger privacy screen like 15" one and trimmed it according to your screen, if you really need one badly.
Good Luck.

Adding another screen for MacBook Air

I have a late 2008 MacBook Air, and am looking to add an additional screen when working in my home office---drag and drop screen to screen. Does anyone have suggestions on docking station or way to this?

BTW: I am aware on how to do this, when you can plug the mointor directly into the laptop or there is a specific docking station. I am just looking for the best options available for MacBook Air.
Thanks!

IMac (2010) as external screen for Macbook Pro (2012)

I've been googling this for a few hours now and have only walked into walls.
My 21,5" iMac only has a FireWire, Mini DisplayPort and several USB ports and has the newest up to date software but is from mid 2010.
My 13" Macbook Pro only has a FireWire, Thunderbolt and several USB ports and has the newest up to date software but is from mid 2012.
It would be very interesting and useful for me to be able to use my iMac as an extra screen for my Macbook Pro, as all I do is video editing, photo editing, video grading etc.
All help or suggestions is welcome! Thank you!

In addition to Niel's post, this article might help you out. What you're looking to do is called "Target Display Mode." I would make sure to especially check the "requirements" section to make sure that your model will work for this.

Use old Windows laptop as second screen for Macbook Pro

Hi all,
I've recently bought a Macbook Pro (mid 2012, 13", 2,5 GHz). So I'm not using my Acer laptop anymore, but I've came across a discussion of people who extended their Mac screen on a Windows laptop. I've tried multiple VNC apps, but no decent results (lots of lag, only mirroring my screen and so on). So my question is: how can I use my Acer to act like a second screen (I prefer a LAN connection instead over WiFi)
Thanks a lot!

Where can I buy a replacement screen for macbook pro

my screen broke and i want to know if i can have the screen replaced

If it a fairly new MBP the only place to get a screen is from Apple. If it is 3+ years old look on iFixit.com and or other Mac parts resellers. A google search will turn up a few.

Broken screen of MacBook Pro (Retina, 15-inch, Late 2013). Where I can find the part?

I have a broken screen for MacBook Pro (Retina, 15-inch, Late 2013) and I cannot find a replacement. Where I can find the screen? I will install myself. Thanks

Apple does not sell replacement parts, any you find will be third-party knockoffs. Take your Retina to an Apple store genius bar and have the techs tell you what needs to be done. New Retina screens are not cheap, they normally replace the entire lid as a unit.

X240 privacy screen

Looking for help with a privacy screen (the 3M Vikuiti type) for my new X240...
On my old X60 (I think it was an X60, anyway) there were sort of 'tabs' on the privacy screen itself, so they snapped into place nicely and help it to the screen solidly.
On my next machine, a X220 there were no tabs - and the provacy screen had to be held in with really ugly sticky struts which attached to the bezel and stopped the prvacy screen falling off the display. UGLY!
I can't see any gaps for tabs on the X240, but the Lenovo page for the X240 privacy screen seems to suggest there is something like that. It says : "Unique attachment system keeps the security filter in place even when the laptop is closed." If they mean sticky strips that you put on the bezel, it's hardly unique!
http://shop.lenovo.com/us/en/itemdetails/4Z10E51378/460/D67CA028B5AF4D9CA2ED0936EFFCAA26
Anyway, if anybody has any experience with a privacy screen on the X240 I'd love to hear from them. My X220 screen physically fits it, but I wouldn't mind buying a new one if I didn't need to use the sticky struts!
Cheers.

The 3M privacy screen for the X240 does use the adhesives strips to hold the screen to the display.

What is the best privacy screen protector for the MacBook Air?

I am looking for a privacy screen protector for my 13" MacBook Air that will interfere the least amount possible with image clarity and such. I work in a busy university medical center as an intern (so sadly I do not have my own office) and would like to be able to use my MacBook while sitting somewhat close to other people. Privacy is an issue because the information I deal with is protected by HIPAA and FERPA. What are the best privacy screen protectors out there, as far as quality and performance go?

Best there is, is the 3M privacy screen

Where can I purchase a LED screen for my 13" MacBook Pro?

My 2009, 13" MacBook Pro screen needs to be replaced. It fades to white minutes after I boot up. Apple charges over $400 to replace a screen. Or they will outsource the replacement for $250. I have been repairing all my computers for years. I don't want to pay out a bunch of money for something I can do myself. I can't seem to find a reputable dealer who sells the correct LED replacement screens for my Laptop. Will somebody here give me the names of places where I can buy a screen? Thanks in advance for your help.

Screen sharing setup in 10.5, 10.6 are described by the links by operating system. 10.7 is fairly similar to 10.6.
And if both Macs have Firewire, you can setup a Firewire over IP network for fast communication between machines. Note if you have two different Firewire ports a 6 pin to 9 pin Firewire cable does exist. There are no Firewire to USB cables.

The green button, top left corner of a pop-up screen on MACbook, it's supposed to enlarge the pop-up to full MAC screen size, correct? Mine does not. Sometimes it makes the pop-up screen SMALLER. Appreciate someone solving this for me.

Are you talking about the green '+' button in the top left corner? That technically doesn't enlarge it. It switches the window from the default window size to the custom size you made. You can enlarge the window by moving your mouse to the bottom right corner of the window, and dragging until you get the size you want.

Need HDCP-recognizing Bootcamp Windows driver for MacBook Pro's screen

I need a Bootcamp Windows driver for my MacBook Pro 15/Retina (MBR) that recognizes that the MBR's built-in screen in HDCP-compliant. The current Bootcamp drivers for Windows do recognized HDCP on an external HDMI-connected display, but do not recognized HDCP on the internal display.
BTW, I've read some statements that Windows drivers don't recognize HDCP via DisplayPort connections, so I wonder if Apple is using internal wiring that acts like it's a DisplayPort connection?
Please do not suggest things that only enable disabling DRM HDCP protection from Blu-Ray discs. I need a solution that to cooperate with DRM HDCP protection for content from live tuners, not from a Blu-Ray or DVD disc.
My application is using Windows Media Center (WMC) to play streaming content from my Silicon Dust HD HomeRun Prime (HDHR3) cable TV tuner on my MBR's built-in screen. This works fine with an external HDMI-connected (HDCP-capable) display, but I also want to get this working on my laptop's screen for when I'm stuck in bed (illness, bad back, etc.). The only application Silicon Dust offers for viewing HDHR3 tuner output on Windows (or any platform, as far as I know) which supports all protected cable channels is WMC, and WMC relies on the Apple-provided Windows NVIDIA drivers for HDCP capability. The NVIDIA Control Panel explicitly recognizes my external HDMI-connected monitor's HDCP capability, but does not recognize the MBR's internal screen has having any HDCP. This causes WMC to prevent the display of any TV channels at all from the HDHR3 when the only screen is the internal one (and it blocks DRM-protected channels if both screens are active in parallel).
I'm thinking that the best solution would be an NVIDIA driver for the built-in GeForce GT 650M for Windows 8 (or 7) which recognizes HDCP capability via DisplayPort. Is there anything like that? Or, alternately, some add-in driver that adds a layer of HDCP capability recognition to the standard drivers?
Is there any currently-available solution? . . . something that will enable the internal screen to play all the tuner's cable channels including DRM-protected ones (either on Bootcamp'ed Windows or on the OS X side)?
P.S. -- FYI, the only other potential app I've read about for using an external tuner with a MacBook is an OS X version of MythTV, but (a) that requires an excessively long list of geek tweek steps (install an SQL application, create an SQL database, do lots of command-line tweaks, add & configure a backend app and then a frontend app, ... ) and (b) even then it seems it doesn't support channels that aren't marked "copy-freely", i.e., HDCP-enabled DRM protected content.

Strange -- sig's comment seems gone now. I wonder why.
Anyway, I did try the latests NVidia drivers yesterday, afterall they explicitly say they added HDCP over DisplayPort, but no joy. In the NVidia control panel (for Windows), external displays via HDMI have a left-menu section for HDCP that explicitly shows it's working, but there is still no such indication for the internal display, and I am still unable to use WMC with HD HomeRun Prime cablecard tuner to play anything on the screen except channels that the provider marks "copy freely" (e.g., Bloomberg news channel 722 isn't playable, but MSNBC 723 is playable).
My guess is that maybe laptop internal displays don't explicitly have internal DisplayPort and HDCP technology but have some kind of exception that normally allows playback?
As an alternative I wish there were cablecard tuner playback software on the OS X side that could play more than "copy freely" cablecard-tuned material, but there doesn't seem to be anything comparable to Windows Media Player that supports that. (Now it should be clearer why this discussion belongs under MacBook Pro and not under Bootcamp where the moderators moved it.)

Macbook pro 2012 as second screen for imac 2013 via thunderbolt cable

Hello,
I was wondering wether it is possible to use my macbook as a second screen for my imac using a thunderbolt cable.
I want to use my imac as primary mac because the specs are better.
Thanks

Most new monitors will support standard DVI and VGA connections. Some may support Mini-DVI ports. That's about all I can tell you.
As for other factors I would look at monitor reviews - as many as you can - for the size and resolutions in which you are interested. There are a lot of products out there. You might try first doing a Google search to learn more about the meanings of the various specs the manufacturers provide so you might wade through the smoke and mirrors in search of meaningful information.

Shouldn't Apple recall and provide FREE replacement for MacBook Pro screens with ghosting and dead pixel issues?

Read the forum posts, Google the issue, watch the YouTube videos on the problems; they are everywhere. I purchased a 2012 Retina MacBook Pro and the screen is riddled with dead pixels, white ghosting throughout, and image retention issues, all from a company that promotes the quality of the product they sell. There's no way this issue facing so many consumers shouldn't result in Apple replacing these screens for FREE.
I purchased the high-end machine for photo and video editing. Photo editing is particularly difficult when I can't tell if I have dust, dirt or colour shifts in my images or if it's just the screen overlaying these issues. I've never had so many issues with any screen I've purchased, from my Panasonic Plasma TV to my cheap ACER laptop. Please Apple, quit ignoring this issue.
