Vertical blue line won't go away ANYONE ELSE HAVE THIS ?

I have a vertical blue line on my MBP display, only one pixel thick but all the way top to bottom. Location-wise, in the finder menu the line runs between the 'e' and 'l' of the 'help' option - about 4" from the left of the screen.
The problem persists after a restart and stays there no matter which app I'm using. It's most noticable when the screen is displaying a darker image but when displaying a white/light/bright background (like the apple discussions) it's hardly noticable.
Seems to me like I have a vertical line of dead pixels and it needs to go back to apple for a replacement. HAS ANYONE ELSE EXPERIENCED THIS PROBLEM? and can anyone confirm that this means dead pixels, I've never experienced it before.
Thanks in advance for any replies.

Hello there. This problem is definitely a defect in the LCD display. Take it back to Apple for repair. I have had this happen with an old iBook.

  • Windows 8.1Pro won't run iTunes, anyone else have this problem?

    I have downloaded the latest version of iTunes on my Windows 8.1Pro laptop, but it will not run.  My wife's computer has the same problem (also 8.1Pro). Any suggestions to correct this situation?

    There is no solution.  iTunes is just broken with Windows 8.1.  All users are having this problem.  Apple has not acknowledged that this issue exists.

  • I downloaded a movie to my Air, but it won't sync to my ipad2 and says it's not authorized.  It's not a rental.  Anyone else have this problem or know how to resolve?

    I downloaded a movie to my Air, but it won't sync to my ipad2 and says it's not authorized.  It's not a rental.  Anyone else have this problem or know how to resolve?

    I ended up having a one hour conversation with Apple Support which evolved to handing over control of my screen and then eventually having to use Terminal.  I wish I could remember the command but it's probably best I don't. 
    One thing we looked at right away was the account name used to dowload the movie.  Is it the same as the account name  you have saved on your iPad.  That's easy to check and would be great if that is all that's needed to correct.  Good luck.
    Here's also an email I got from Support that could solve your problem if it's not as difficult as my issue was.
    I would like to inform you that this issue can occur if iOS (your device's operating system) on your device needs to be updated. It can also happen if the computer you're trying to sync from has not been authorized to play purchases you are trying to sync.
    I suggest that you first see if updating iOS on your iPad resolves the issue. This article will walk you through the process:
    Backing up, updating, and restoring your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch software
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414
    If there are still purchases that won't sync to your device after you update its software, I suggest reauthorizing your computer. To do so, follow these steps:
    1) Open iTunes.
    2) From the Store pull-down menu at the top, choose Deauthorize Computer.
    3) Enter your account name and password, then click Deauthorize.
    4) Now from the Store pull-down menu at the top, choose Authorize Computer.
    5) Enter your account name and password, then click Authorize.
    Once your computer has been authorized, try syncing your device again. If the same issue happens, I suggest reviewing the following articles:

  • My daughter bought an 4th generation ipod classic without a charger.  We are using the charger from an ipod touch and it won't charge.  Someone posted online that not all chargers will work on the classic.  Anyone else have this issue and any suggestions?

    My daughter bought a 4th generation ipod classic without a charger.  The ipod was working just fine, but then we tried to charge it using a brand new charger for an Ipod Touch.  It won't charge and someone online someone posted that there ipod touch charger worked on the ipad, phone and whatever else he had but it wouldn't work on the classic.  Anyone else have this same issue?  Any solutions?

    The ipod did not come with a power cord as we purchased it used from ebay.  The ipod was half charged when we received it and it worked well enough to transfer songs to my computer (the previous seller didn't delete their 2000 plus songs).  My son then used the same cord on his computer to transfer the songs, but processed an update to the ipod and after that,it wouldn't work.  So, I'm not sure if we received a bum ipod, an update issue or we have a charger issue, but the cord we used to transfer the songs came from my son's brand new ipod touch.  We've also tried 2 other chargers from ipods we have in the house, 1 being a wall charger. 
    One individual posted online that he took his ipod classic, mac and phone overseas with one charger and it worked fine on all but the classic.  So, I'm thinking that they cords may not be universal.  Online I've read that it must be a 6 pin firewire, high power 2.0 usb cord.  Or that I need to purchase an applie charger.  We don't live close to an apple store and I'm reluctant to order one just to have it NOT work. 
    My daughter is learning the hard way that buying off of ebay is not always the best solution to a cash strapped 12 year old.
    Any other advice is greatly appreciated.

  • HT1338 Apple sent me a disc for Snow Leapord so I could upgrade to Lion, but the disc won't install.  Anyone else have that problem?  How do i solve?  Can't move to I cloud until it is done.

    Apple sent me a disc for Snow Leapord so I could upgrade to Lion, but the disc won't install.  Anyone else have that problem?  How do i solve?  Can't move to I cloud until it is done.

    Hold c and reboot off the 10.6 disk, run the installer.
    If the machine your upgrading is the 2006, I'd highly advise you stay on 10.6.8
    It's a 5 year old machine, you're in the last life stages of that machine and 10.7 will push it right over the edge.
    10.6 is a GOOD upgrade for that machine, faster than 10.7 or 10.5.
    And 10.6 will run your 10.5 software, 10.7 will not.
    Get iCloud with a new 10.8 machine coming out after this summer, seriously.
    Your machine is too old to bother with Lion.
    Or else you can learn yourself and use this link to get back to Snow, good luck finding your 10.5 programs.

  • I have created a second user on my imac (OSX 10.7.1) and applications won't stay in the dock and my preferences default after restart. Anyone else have this problem?

    I have created a second user on my iMac (OSX 10.7.1) and applications won't stay in the dock and my preferences default after restart. Everything works fine with the main user. Anyone else have this problem?

    Hi again, ;o)
    I found this advice in another thread (here), which you might find helpful...
    Unregistering the iMac from .Mac syncing and re-registering it (replacing the computer's information with the .Mac information) resolved the issue.
    The .Mac sync information was Reset (i.e. recopied in it's entirety) from the MacBook (the 'good' computer) to .Mac prior to unregistering and re-registering the iMac, so a fresh copy of the sync could be loaded from .Mac to the iMac.
    I hope this helps the others who have had this problem.
    Regards,

    Back up all data before proceeding.
    This procedure will unlock all your user files (not system files) and reset their ownership, permissions, and access controls to the default. If you've intentionally set special values for those attributes on any of your files, they will be reverted. In that case, either stop here, or be prepared to recreate the settings if necessary. Do so only after verifying that those settings didn't cause the problem. If none of this is meaningful to you, you don't need to worry about it, but you do need to follow the instructions below.
    Step 1
    If you have more than one user, and the one in question is not an administrator, then go to Step 2.
    Triple-click anywhere in the following line on this page to select it:
    sudo find ~ $TMPDIR.. -exec chflags -h nouchg,nouappnd,noschg,nosappnd {} + -exec chown -h $UID {} + -exec chmod +rw {} + -exec chmod -h -N {} + -type d -exec chmod -h +x {} + 2>&-
    Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
    Launch the built-in Terminal application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
    Paste into the Terminal window by pressing command-V. I've tested these instructions only with the Safari web browser. If you use another browser, you may have to press the return key after pasting.
    You'll be prompted for your login password, which won't be displayed when you type it. Type carefully and then press return. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you don’t have a login password, you’ll need to set one before you can run the command. If you see a message that your username "is not in the sudoers file," then you're not logged in as an administrator.
    The command may take several minutes to run, depending on how many files you have. Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign ($) to appear, then quit Terminal.
    Step 2 (optional)
    Take this step only if you have trouble with Step 1, if you prefer not to take it, or if it doesn't solve the problem.
    Start up in Recovery mode. When the OS X Utilities screen appears, select
              Utilities ▹ Terminal
    from the menu bar. A Terminal window will open. In that window, type this:
    res
    Press the tab key. The partial command you typed will automatically be completed to this:
    resetpassword
    Press return. A Reset Password window will open. You’re not going to reset a password.
    Select your startup volume ("Macintosh HD," unless you gave it a different name) if not already selected.
    Select your username from the menu labeled Select the user account if not already selected.
    Under Reset Home Directory Permissions and ACLs, click the Reset button.
    Select
               ▹ Restart
    from the menu bar.
