Separation between screen glass and aluminium base

My new i5 iMac has a slight sepearation between the glass surrounding the screen and the aluminium base at the bottom. It's wide enough to fit my fingernail in. Is there a way to fix this/should I be worried about it?

Eric,
Taking it back to the store would be...quite the experience as I live where I'd be using public transit. Apart from any aesthetic issues, the machine should be completely functional, no?

Tissue between the glass and cover

A small tissue is stuck between the glass and the cover of my z2 and when i tried to remove it it gets inside more and more and now I guess it is inside the phone. If he is water and dust proof how a tissue should stuck in the corner of the phone

That's normal, there's a gap all around the screen, your phone is still waterproof, I believe that the gap its to reduce the chances of the screen cracking if its dropped

Dust Between the Glass and LCD Surface.

I have a pocket of dust between the glass and LCD surface. I don't even notice that it is there until the screen behind the patch gets darker. Then my ADD kicks in and I focus on it intently.
Can it be cleaned by anyone and not cost me $$$$$ or void any warantees?

I recently had the same problem. I made an appointment with the Genius Bar at the Apple store. The Genius was able to replace my screen with a new one; It took about 10 minutes.

Is it normal for there to be a gap between the glass and bezel on iPhone 5?

As you can see, there's a really small gap between the glass and the rim (frame) whatever you want to call it. I can fit a piece of paper there, as u can see.
It also collects dust. It's annoying.
Is it normal and can it be replaced under the 1 year warranty? I bought the device just 2 weeks ago and haven't dropped it or anything.

Is anyone else seeing this on their phone or is it just me?

Any Suggest about this issue on console:
mdworker[600]: No separator between the header and body in message <_CMFMemoryMessage: 0x7f8665118800>
Best Regards

Thanks very much. It's turned out to be a font problem. About 30 of the fonts in my account directory /users/me/library/fonts folder were corrupted. They were somehow being viewed as unix executable files instead of font suitcases. !??! No idea what happened there.
I used Pacifist to reload fonts from my OSX installation disc, but this didn't seem to help. Instead, I found other copies of most of the corrupted fonts in the microsoft office/office/fonts folder, and replaced the corrupted fonts in my home library w/ those.
I was alerted to the fact the the problem was fonts when I tried to open an Excel file; it came back with messages that these various fonts were corrupted and needed to be removed. Strangely, though the corrupted fonts were in my home directory font folder and not the MS Office font folder, Excel was tripping up - i.e., it wasn't using the fonts from the Office folder. Hmm.
Finally, there are still a few fonts that are corrupted, and whose source is a mystery to me. They didn't come from the OS installation disc and they don't come from Office; consequently, I can't fix them. They are: Geneva CE, Geneva CY, GrCourier and N Helvitica Narrow.
Does anyone know where these fonts come from?

Difference between screen painter and module pool

Hi guys,
what's the difference between SCREEN PAINTER and MODULE POOL ....
can anyone plz give brief description ...
regards
venu

hi ,
As its said by many colleagues in SDN , there are not very major differences between Modulepools and screen painter .
The few differences are :
1) Module pool is nothing but a pool ( series ) of screens . and Screen painter ( SE51 ) is a tool used for creating/designing screens .
2) While creating a modulepool you even need to create a transaction and assign this module pool program else the mpool program doesnt work . I think this is place we can say they are different .
3) If at all you create a screen in screen painter ( SE51 ) , that doesnot function by its own , you need to assign it to any of the executable programs or modulepool programs .Here is again a difference .

Separator between the left and right pane.

The WebHelp generated has a separator (used for resizing)
that divides the left pane (TOC) from the right pane (main
content). This separator has a border and hence is displayed as a
thick gray raised line. I would like for the separator NOT to be a
border and thus it will show up as a thin gray line.
The way to do this is to specify frameborder = "0" in the
<frame> tag for the right pane. However, if I change this in
my Start page (after generation), this frameborder = "0" is just
not getting applied. Can someone tell me what I am missing?
Thanks,
K

I modified the .skn file to change the frameborder = "0" for
the instance of <frame> with cols. This did reduce the
separator, but not quite.
If you look at the Default skin, I want the thickness for the
separator between the left pane (TOC) from the right pane (main
content) to be the same as the separator between the search box and
the results below. Am I making sense?
Thanks,
K

Gap separation between grey plastic and white plastic

Hey
Im a new user to apple, i just received my white macbook about a week ago from the online store. Around about the third day i realized there were some little gaps between the grey and white plastic. They seemed to be pretty harmless. however, since then ive been noticing them in different spots around my computer. I dont really feel like sending it in and all, such a hassle. Is this serious? I was able to lift a bit the right side with my nail, put a tiny piece of double-sided tape so it would stay in place, seems to be doing okay, but will it get worse and worse all around my laptop? Could it eventually come right off, the gray plastic that is??? Help!!!

That plastic clips in around most of your computer. There are small clips that hold it in place and it is actually attached to your keyboard. In other places on your computer that plastic is attached to metal and the metal is screwed into the frame of the computer, I guess it all depends on where your talking about.
If it is pulling up in a few spots I would call into AppleCare and let them know, perhaps some clips are missing or broken. If they are broken you don't want plastic chips floating around inside of your computer.

What's the difference between Screen Sharing and Remote Management?

As the title asks. What is the difference between the two?
Because heres the thing. I set Screen Sharing on in Sharing. Then a few days later I will go back to the Sharing preferences and instead of Screen Sharing being checked. Remote Management is now checked, not Screen Sharing. What's the deal? Is that normal?
I was wondering if it was because I log into my iMac sometimes using my iPhone with that Mocha VNC program. Its the only program I use to remotely control my computer. Is that it?
Any help I can get is appreciated! Thanks!

Remote Management provides support for the additional functionality of Apple Remote Desktop as compared to a standard VNC setup. The options are otherwise identical.

White spec between glass and screen...

There is a white spec under the glass on my iPad. It's very annoying. Before I go to the Apple store, I'd like to know what it is that they can do for me.
It's easy to see when the screen is locked and not showing anything.

As you said, there is foreign material between the glass and the LCD screen. Apple may replace your iPad with another one if you bring it to the Genius bar. However, they may say that the iPad is acceptable with that minor defect.

Dust, Debris In Between Glass and LCD

Hi,
A few months ago I purchased a Macbook Pro 13", it is not the newest revision with the nvidia320 graphics, its the older.
Anyways, just a couple days ago, I opened the computer and noticed two pieces of dust in between the glass and display right it the middle of course about two inches apart, they for sure are not dead or stuck pixels as I can get them to move just a tad if I give the screen a few good taps but I don't want to screw up anything, plus a few more specks have came and gone since this started (seemingly moving across the screen over a couple days) but the original two specks are still there it seems to be getting worse and I'm concerned by a month or two the screen is going to have dozens of these specs. I keep my screen and computer super clean, I'm a bit neurotic about that which is why it annoys me so much. I'm wondering if I have a leak i the seal around my screen or something.
Once you see these things you can't un-see them. To make matters worse, I haven't yet bought the applecare but it is still within the one year warranty, and its the old model so I don't know if they would even be able to replace it for me if they could as I'm sure they have started caring only the newest revision. Which would be a problem for me if they just opted to swap the whole thing since I got the faster 2.53 model and not the base, and from the looks of it the newer model only comes in 2.4ghz and 2.66 respectively.
TL;DR, I have an appointment at an Apple Store tomorrow to have them check it out but I don't know if they are going to want me to pay to replace the screen or what, since I don't have apple care but I'm still under 1 year warranty? I'm curious if anyone else has been in a similar situation. This seems likes its a manufacturers defect and not anything I could have caused. It already seemed like I was pulling their teeth when I got my Macbook Pro originally it had several dead pixels and I was able to get them to swap it out so I'm wondering what kind of freak their going to think I am when I show them these pieces of dust lol. But man are they annoying, has anyone else went through this on a model over two weeks old?

Hello,
After reading the post and review the pictures I think I have the same problem.
I bought a MacBook Pro 13" in December 2009 (still under warranty) through Apple Store and I noticed what I thought was a dead pixel. Looking better, even with the screen off, there is something in the sector. I took it to an Apple service and said it was a speck of dust behind the glass. I made the request to repair to Apple Care and have not had a response succesfull.
Would greatly appreciate any suggestions from you guys.
Greetings.

How to remove water from between glass and lcd

I took my phone into repair a few weeks back and probably got non OEM parts. Now after having my phone near the pool for a couple of swims, I've got water stuck between the glass and LCD. The phone works fine. Just lots of spots on the screen. Best way to dry out? Rice? Take it apart? Open to some suggestions. Thanks.

Put in a bowl covered by uncooked rice on a radiator or heated floor for min 48hours

Gap between glass and metal band.

I have a really thin gaps between the glass and metal band in the upper front and back right corner, and was wondering if anyone else has noticed small gaps between the glass and metal band anywhere on their phone. ive had nothing but crappy customer service at both apple stores near me, but was eventually told by the "genius" that i could come back with another appointment before the 30 days and swap for a new retail phone in the box.
The only thing that worries me is getting a whole new phone with more different problems then the one i have with only the gap issue. The "genius" also told me that im the first one that has had this issue, yet ive seen threads about a month or so ago with people saying they had the same issue. so as an update, has anyone noticed this now?

ya, but this isnt the first time ive had bad customer service with apple. Granted it was a different apple store, but about 3 days after i bought the phone i made an appointment, and took it in for the same separation issue. This time the guy seemed almost clueless as he had to ask his co workers questions i was asking him. Thankfully a manager overheard the situation and informed him that it was an issue that needed to be taken care of. So the guy goes to the back, comes out with a phone from the black box (At the time i had no clue of how the black boxes worked), and i ask if it was a new or refurbished phone, and he assured me it was a new one.
So after inspecting the phone i noticed another gap in the glass and told the worker and he replies with "its not that bad, i dont think yours was that bad either". after seeing the same issue and getting his response, i decided to just keep mine and make a different appointment at another store (Today). Oh, might I add that after we leave the store, my girlfriend tells me that as i picked up the phone to inspect it, the guy rolls his eyes. Just experiences like these leave a biter taste in my mouth. its sad that a couple experiences from non corporate workers would make me start to dislike a company.

Gap on bottom between glass and frame

Hi all,
I got a D6653 last week, absolutely loving it BTW. However, I've come to noticed a decent gap on the bottom of the device, between the glass and frame. I don't see the same gap on top, which makes me think it's a manufacturing issue. But, when I look at the back of the device, I see the same thing. Does anyone else see this? Is it normal? This is my first Xperia device.
The gap is starting to collect particles and it's looking very unattractive about now (only in 4 days). Also, it makes me question the waterproof capabilitly. I would imagine the phone assembly would have to be very tight to be able to make that promise.
Would appreciate any feedback, thanks.

Any pictures?
It's definitely a manufacturing error, and you should get a replacement. I have the Z2 and have a LOT of gaps. Fortunately the device is still waterproof, but it doesn't feel right when you notice the gaps.
Just get a replacement (should be covered).
