There are much dirty in my Macbook Pro screen

Hi there! I have used Macbook Pro for 4 months, and now there are much duty inside my Macbook Pro's Screen. Can I exchange another one for my screen, you know, there are much much screen, so that is not very comfortable for me now.
P.S: I really don't know how the duty can access inside to my MBP's screen? :-?

I have the same problem - there are these "dark patches" that sort of look like someone smudged the inside of the screen. I noticed this since I bought my computer, but I waited to bring it in because I thought it might go away or might be able to be cleaned. Also, I've been away at school so it hasn't been convenient.
In any case, I just brought it into a local Apple Retail Store to have it looked at, and they told me it is "damage" resulting from pressure applied to the back of the screen. In the end, they told me that because I waited as long as I did to have it looked at, my AppleCare Protection Plan, which doesn't expire until JUNE 2010 will NOT cover the $1249 repair that they estimated.
I am extremely careful not to pick up my laptop with one hand or in any way that applies hard pressure to the screen; I am surprised that the people I talked to wouldn't elect to send my laptop into repair. I am also very disappointed that my $250+ AppleCare Protection Plan is evidently useless.
Anyone else have any ideas or experience in similar matters or likewise?

    how much to replace broken macbook pro screen??

    Few thoughts:
    There is a minuscule possibility that you can successfully convince the Genius that the damage was not due to abuse or mishandling. And if it is still under warranty, a new free screen will be yours. Don't get your hopes up too high, though...
    If a Retina, the cost will be so high that maybe selling it for parts and getting a new one might be a better idea.
    Same may apply if it is very old. Not cause the screen costs arm+leg, but because you will be sinking lots of cash onto a sinking ship.
    If handy with tools, can explore PowerBookMedic.com or IFixIt.com for parts prices and howto.

  • Macbook Pro screen error

    Hello, I send attached image showing a graphical error occasionally. If I move the cursor off the error. I have not found an answer to my problem. Thank you very much, see what you think. Some of my macbook pro features are: 2.4 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo, 4 GB 1067 MHz DDR3, NVIDIA GeForce 320M 256MB.

    I had this problem too while using Mac OS X Lion on my Mid 2010 MacBook before I updated to my Mid 2012 MacBook Pro. It may be a problem with Mac OS X Lion or older generation Macs. You may either want to see if there are any updates for your MacBook Pro or see about upgrading to OS X Mountain Lion because after I upgraded to OS X Mountain Lion I don't recall having this problem.
    Hope this helps,

  • The screen resolution in 1920x1200 dropped on my MacBook Pro 17". Seems like I have not the same pixels. There are also vertical, thin lines on the screen. Makes the screen look milky. Anybody knows what's going on and how to fix it?

    Take it to an Apple Store or other service provider for testing.

  • What is the best way to manage my iPhoto, which is taking up too much space on my MacBook Pro?

    What is the best way to manage my iPhoto, which is taking up too much space on my MacBook Pro?
    Specifically, I'd like to keep some of my favorite pictures on the laptop while moving the rest to an external hard drive. Is there a way to tag just a few pictures inside an event/album as "favorite", while storing the rest in an EHD, but still keep them connected to the same event/album? I'd like to have just the favorite pictures on the laptop, but when I have the EHD connected,  be able to view all my pictures in the same place, and not have to browse through separate hard drives. Ideally, whether or not a picture is designated as "favorite" will determine where it resides.
    Is this at all possible?
    I have only 7 GB left on my HD and I'm desperately needing a solution!
    Thanks!

    You need two libraries to do this. One on the external with all your Photos. One on the internal with a subset - your favourites. You do it this way to make backing up easier - that is, back up the library with everything, so you're only backing up one.
    Make sure the drive is formatted Mac OS Extended (Journaled)
    1. Quit iPhoto
    2. Copy the iPhoto Library from your Pictures Folder to the External Disk.
    Now you have two full versions of the Library.
    3. On the Internal library, trash the Events/albums/photos you don't want there
    Now you have a full copy of the Library on the External and a smaller subset on the Internal
    Some Notes:
    As a general rule: when deleting photos do them in batches of about 100 at a time. iPhoto can baulk at trashing large numbers at one go.
    You can choose which Library to open: Hold down the option (or alt) key key and launch iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Choose Library'
    You can keep the Library on the external updated with new imports using iPhoto Library Manager

  • Small MacBook Pro screen scratch: Are they normal for a 2+ year old computer?

    Hello,
    I am writing about a topic that may have been mentioned around on these forums multiple times, scratches on the MacBook Pro screen display. In August 2010, I bought my 2010 MacBook Pro and since then I have been very careful with the screen by avoiding to touch it and clean it around every two to three months. However, today, I was cleaning my MacBook Pro screen and a way I examine the screen cleaness is by placing my iPhone 4S LED flash light illuminating the screen which shows the smudges and dirt that the screen has. Unfortunately, today I found 2 scratches on my MacBook Pro screen which run horizontally, these scratches are very small at around 1mm in lenght. They are not noticeable when the screen is on, which is why the scratch may have gone undetectable up until today when I used my iPhone's LED.
    Off course I am a little dismayed because through all my carefullness when I clean the screen (I use a gentle up and down motion to clean the screen), still I was not able to prevent a screen scratch. When I close my MacBook Pro, I still use the plastic material that came on top of the keyboard to avoid any contact of the screen and the keys; I always shake that plastic material before placing it on top of the keyboard . So here's my question is it normal for a almost 2.5 year old computer to have two small scratches as the one I am speaking about.
    I did find the screen bezel at Amazon and I may buy one as a spare and store it in a secure place and use it if there are more pronounced screen scratches.
    Thanks in advance for any answers and suggestions to my predicament.

    I have a 2010 MacBook Pro. I do not take any care to put anything in between the keyboard and screen... I just use it as it was made to be used. I don't take any particular care when cleaning the screen... often, it's just rubbing off a fingerprint with my sleeve or the tail of my shirt. No scratches whatsoever.
    How your screen got scratched is not something anyone here can answer. We can speculate, at most, but that's not likely to be very useful. I'd recommend not putting anything between the screen and keyboard when closing the machine. That could very well be the cause of the problem, if something got stuck to that material when you closed it between keyboard and screen.
    Thanks for the suggestion... I will apply these changes to my MacBook Pro's storing procedure and remove the plastic out of the equation. What bugs me is the fact that because the scratch is 1mm long and horizontal it tells me that a force dragged the material. The only thing I can recollect is when one time a family member accidentally passed close to my MacBook Pro with his headphone jack disconnected and hanging, unfortunately the metal part scraped over the screen but there were not scratches to detect. The impact area as I recollect is close to the scratch but the force of the impact and travel distance was not something as forceful to create such damage. Maybe the plastic is the culprit which makes me feel disappointed because I was using it to avoid problems rather than creating one. Anyways, I think I'll buy a spare bezel for my MacBook and in case there are more future and pronounced scratches, I will send it to repairs to an Apple Authorized Service Provider and give them the bezel.

    Zap the PRAM and Reset the SMC, then try again. If the problem remains, update to 10.6.8 and repeat.

  • I need to recover deleted data from my iPhone 4S but don't have a recent backup. I thought by pressing sync on my macbook this would back up-but I was wrong. There are no backups on my macbook and the latest backup on iCloud was Jan 2012. Please help

    I need to recover deleted data from my iPhone 4S but don't have a recent backup. I thought by pressing sync on my macbook this would back up…but I was wrong. There are no backups on my macbook and the latest backup on iCloud was Jan 2012. My mum died in May and I had lots of text messages that I wanted to keep. I really want to get them back. Is there any way at all I can get that deleted data from the phone?

    Since it has always been very basic to backup your computer and all it's data, Apple provides no way for you to transfer music from your iPhone back to your computer.  As you know, you can re-download all iTunes purchases, but music that you ripped yourself you'll have to just re-rip again.
    You can try and find 3rd party applications that might help you.  I'm sure you'll pay, however.
    Let this be a very important lesson learned.
    Best.

    No one here would know for sure...my guess? Somewhere around US $700. You'll get it done cheaper at a third-party repair shop.

  • Is there a way to stream my macbook pro audio through itunes to basestation

    Hey I love to stream my itunes through the basestation but, is there a way to stream my macbook pros audio so I can hear things playing from my safari or final cut or whatever other program to the speakers in airport??? Thanks

    Rogue Amoeba's Airfoil should do just what you want. I use if for streaming things like Slacker and Pandora through my Airport Express. It's not free but it's well worth the price. You can try it out for a few minutes (then the sound degrades) to see if it works for you.
