Replaced Display and see dots.

I took my White MacBook to the genius bar because the batter wouldn't charge. I have the one year limited warranty and it's about to expire (unsure if I should buy the warranty bc it's too expensive for me), and While I was there I brought up another issue besides the battery, The Screen.
I had internal scratches on the screen. At first the technician told me It has to be replaced through shipping it off for a week. But then later on, He said that they can change the display for me at the store without shipping it off.
I have my macbook, the internal scratches are gone, but now when I look at my computer in an angle, I see a lot of little small dots. It looks like my screen is wet or STICKY.
It never displayed like this because sometimes I use my mac while I'm standing up and I wouldn't see that, now when I use it standing up and it on the desk, I see those dots.
I asked the technician about the problem and he got MAD!!! He said that that's how it is, that all parts in macs are different. That we can change the screen 100 times and it will still look like that.
In general the screen looks good when it's in front of me, but in any angle I see the small white dots, it looks like my screen is wet or gooey or something.
My display was replaced. Do you think that the display they put is for the new macbook? or what? I think that it might be, unsure though.
WHAT I HAD MOSTLY IN CONCERN WAS THAT MAYBE THEY DID A CHEESY JOB BECAUSE OF THE FACT THAT THEY DIDN'T SHIP IT TO REPLACE THE SCREEN.
Opinions Please..

I have tried that moment I saw it.
The problem is internally. I have to be directly in front of the screen in order to see a clear image.
If I see it in a slight angle to the right or left I see fuzz. Somewhat the same as the type of static you would see with an antenna tv without the new digital tv transceivers. Similar, but white. The static isn't as bad at the tv though.. It looks like the screen is dirty or staticy or goowy Tech said it's normal but it's not

  • HP dm3-1030us Replacement Display

    I've got a quick question...
    The screen on my dm3-1030us has been badly damaged due to a recent fall it suffered. The computer, itself, is fine (I have it hooked up via HDMI to a TV as I'm typing this...) however the display is pretty messed up. I've been trying to research a replacement display and I've found this...
    http://i617.photobucket.com/albums/tt255/Lambo77355/Capture.jpg
    It gives me these three choices, however there are only two different product numbers...but there are three different prices. So, basically, my question is which one is the right one, and why are the prices different?
    Edit: I tried to embed the image, but this forum doesn't seem to support images...

    There are two screens there. One is an LED and one is a regular TFT panel. They do not interchange. There are two prices for each type; one with exchange of the old broken unit and one without. I suggest removing your panel and checking the back of it for the part number or if you have your original box it should say in the specs which type of panel you have. Those prices are a bit high and you can do better in the replacement market online or on eBay.

  • As a stockholder, I would like see the development of iTV with Retina display and integrating Siri control, internet access, and iTunes apps. This new product would be a large screen, thin wall mounted television, much like a oversided iPad.

    As a stockholder, I would like see the development of iTV with Retina display and integrating Siri control, internet access, and iTunes apps. This new product would be a large screen, thin wall mounted television, much like a oversided iPad.
    Do you think this product is possible?

    In general theory, one now has the Edit button for their posts, until someone/anyone Replies to it. I've had Edit available for weeks, as opposed to the old forum's ~ 30 mins.
    That, however, is in theory. I've posted, and immediately seen something that needed editing, only to find NO Replies, yet the Edit button is no longer available, only seconds later. Still, in that same thread, I'd have the Edit button from older posts, to which there had also been no Replies even after several days/weeks. Found one that had to be over a month old, and Edit was still there.
    Do not know the why/how of this behavior. At first, I thought that maybe there WAS a Reply, that "ate" my Edit button, but had not Refreshed on my screen. Refresh still showed no Replies, just no Edit either. In those cases, I just Reply and mention the [Edit].
    Also, it seems that the buttons get very scrambled at times, and Refresh does not always clear that up. I end up clicking where I "think" the right button should be and hope for the best. Seems that when the buttons do bunch up they can appear at random around the page, often three atop one another, and maybe one way the heck out in left-field.
    While I'm on a role, it would be nice to be able to switch between Flattened and Threaded Views on the fly. Each has a use, and having to go to Options and then come back down to the thread is a very slow process. Jive is probably incapable of this, but I can dream.

  • My iPod is showing a white screen. I could not see anything. But I can listen to songs by blindly pressing the play button twice. The battery comes only for an hour.? How do I get the display and longer battery?

    Hello Friends,
    I've two iPod Nanos (4th gen - 8GB). I'm facing a severe problem with both of them. For both iPods, I tried to do this method Simultaneously press the top button + home (central) button. But of no use.
    1. My first iPod is showing a white screen. I could not see anything. But I can listen to songs by blindly pressing the play button twice. The battery comes only for an hour.? How do I get the display and longer battery?
    2. My second iPod is facing more severe problem. None of the buttons are working. When I connect it my PC it showing "CONNECTED- eject before disconnecting". But it is not ejecting with all the usual methods. When I manually and physically disconnect it from the PC the same "CONNECTED- eject before disconnecting" is still showing till the battery goes off. After that if i press any button it is showing low battery signal. And when i re-connect it to the PC the same process is repeating. When I tied to restore it to the factory settings I'm getting "Error" report.
    (I'm using windows 7)
    Friends, Please help me with the above problems. It will be a great help.
    Thank You.

    Sounds like some hardware issues, meaning you'll want to take or send the iPods in for service or repairs. You can choose to have Apple do an out of warranty exchange for the prices indicated in the link below or find another third party service perhaps even local to your area.

    If you head over to ifixit.com, you can check out their replacement guides for each of the items you feel needs replacing. The cost for the parts is listed there. It would be that cost + labor at an Apple store. I'm not sure if they would replace things that are cracked as that is cosmetic damage and doesn't affect how well (or poorly) the computer works. You would have to bring it to a store and ask.

  • My iphone 4 recently shattered and i was wondering are those screen replacements retina displays and the same quality as the apple screens ?

    Are these cheaper alternative screen replacements retina display and the same quality as the apple screen

    I am assuming you are having Apple do this. They will just replace the whole phone with a refurbished one.
    If you're having it done at a third party place then you'll have to ask them all the questions.

  • Folder action to find and replace text and change line feeds

    I want to use a folder action to find and replace text and change Mac carriage returns to DOS line feeds inside text files.
    The text to be replaced is: "/Users/wim/Music/iTunes/iTunes Music/Music" (without the quotes)
    This text has to be removed (i.e. replaced by an empty string)
    The text occurs many times within each file.
    The files are playlists exported from iTunes in the M3U format (which are text files). They contain Mac carriage returns. These need to be changed to DOS line feeds.
    I have found the following two perl commands to achieve this:
    To find and replace text: perl -pi -w -e 's/THIS/THAT/g;' *.txt
    To change carriage returns to line feeds: perl -i -pe 's/\015/\015\012/g' mac-file
    I know that it's possible to make a folder action with Automator that executes a shell script.
    What I want to do is drop the exported playlists in M3U format in a folder so that the folder action will remove the right text and change the carriage returns.
    My questions are:
    Is it possible to make a folder action that executes command line commands instead of shell scripts?
    What is the correct syntax for the two commands when used in a folder action shell script? Especially, how do I escape the slashes (/) in the string to be removed?
    Thanks for your help

    Ok, I've include an applescript to run a shell command. The applesript command quoted form makes a string that will end up as a single string on the bash command line.  Depending on what you want to do, you may need multiple string on the bash command lines.  I've included some information on folder actions.
    It is easier to diagnose problems with debug information. I suggest adding log statements to your script to see what is going on.  Here is an example.
