What is the reccomended way to clean the macbook screen?

i dont want to put water on my screen or windex, how ever cleaning it with a dry tissue doesnt get the fingerprints offf.. what should i use.. thanks :)- kel
Macbook 13 inch   Mac OS X (10.4.7)  

I use lint free micro fiber fabric from kensington and I a damped with water but keep it near dry and wipe it in circular motion.
But for hard to get rid smudge or finger print, I sprayed windex to that damp fabric lightly and wipe it until it is gone.
But if you don't trust windex maybe you could try this

    what is the best way to clean a soft screen on a laptop

    i dont know what you mean by "a soft screen", but read this: To clean the screen on your MacBook, MacBook Pro, or MacBook Air, first shut down the computer and unplug the power adapter. Dampen the included cleaning cloth with just water and wipe the screen. Do not spray liquid directly onto the screen.

    What is the best way to clean my Macbook Pro anti glare screen

    I have used WINDEX ELECTRONICS for about the past 6+ months:

    I apply it with a small damp microfiber cloth and wipe the excess off with a large microfiber cloth.  The display looks the same when it came out of the box.
    THIS IS NOT TO BE CONFUSED WITH ORDINARY WINDEX GLASS CLEANER.

  • Metal Allergy, what is the MacBook Pro constructed of?

    I recently was required to buy the MacBook Pro for my art school. However, I'm allergic to metal, all metals. So, I'm wondering, what is the MacBook Pro constructed of? Are the keys also metal? If so, does anyone know of anything, such as skins, that I can buy to cover parts of my computer where my hands will be or to cover the keys?

    Ouch all metals? That stinks...I'm allergic to nickel...that's about it.
    To the point.
    No, the keys are not metal. Yes, there are definitely full body skins you can buy for the MBP.
    Just two examples:

  • What Makes the MacBook Pro better then MacBook Air?

    What Makes the MacBook Pro better then MacBook Air?
    I am considering getting a laptop of one of the 2.
    I think Macbook pro is what i want as just a secondary computer, need a laptop that performs same as my desktop IMac
    What are really the differences between the Pro and Air?
    What Pro is best?
    Anyone have problems? and am i best with paying for a brand new computer vs refurb?
    thanks

    It really depends what you use it for.
    I'm in my senior years in high school and I just bought my macbook pro (15 in - $1799 w/out tax). I'm willing to spend the extra money as I am planning to use it to continue my education in post secondary school. I think that the MBP is great for work, designing and for professionals. The MBA is great for portability and chicness. The graphics on the MBP is beyond my expectations and it's great. Its great for many things.
    It all comes to this. Are you willing to spend the extra money on a MBP. What will you be using your computer for? WIll you be using it for a very long time? Are you going to be careful with it? I heard that the MBA is flimsy and can easily break.
    I also recommend you ask a person at the Genius Bar at your local Apple store and they will be glad to assist you. I researched for a solid half of a year before i made a decision and bought my macbook pro.
    Hope this helps.

  • What is the default screen brightness setting and keyboard backlight brightness default setting, and how to you go back to default?

    What is the default screen brightness setting and keyboard backlight default setting? I just got a new Macbook Air and fiddled a lot with it, and now just want to know how to set the brightness levels back to default. Thanks everyone!

    Hey sberman,
    I maxed out the screen brightness before I clicked on "restore defaults" in system preferences> energy saver (which has to do with battery, not exactly screen brightness) to see if the screen went back to a "normal" brightness level, but it didn't. I don't think it restored the brightness to default..

  • Proper way to clean an iPod screen?

    It's not a huge deal, there's just a small smudge on my iPod Nano screen, you can't see it too well unless it's in the sunlight or somewhere bright. Is there an effective way to clean an iPod screen without damaging or scratching it?
    Thanks

    It was not like this when new. Definitely not a manufacturing problem. In fact, I just now noticed that there is what looks like a short hair stuck to the monitor screen, but it also will not come off with cleaning solution (or my nail ).
    The bright spots look like the clean spots you would get if you didn't clean your kitchen floor and then you clean one small spot. I think the bright spots are where some type of coating came off the screen.
    Resolution is 1440x900.

  • Working on an external monitor as well as the macbook screen

    Hello,
    When working on an external monitor as well as the macbook screen is there anyway you can have the top bar (with file, edit ect) on the second monitor also?
    Im using a macbook with mountain lion if that helps.
    Many thanks,
    Chris

    Yes.
    System Preferences > Displays > Arrangement Tab
    Then one of the monitors should be displaying this screen:
    You can put your cursor on that white bar (shown on the blue box to the left) and drag it over to the right if that is where you want the menu bar.
    I have mine set up here with my external monitor to the left and the MBPro to the right with my Menu Bar on my external screen as shown by the white bar being on top of the left blue square above.
    Hope this helps.
    Update:
    I misread your question I believe.
    If you want the menu bar to be on BOTH screens at the same time you need to have Mirror Displays checked so that the same image is on both screens. That is the only way.

  • After disconnecting my macbook 2010 from my TV the resolution doe snot fir on the macbook screen

    I connected my Macbook 2010 to my Samsung tv after disconnecting it Now I cannot fit the MAcbook screen whatever I do

    Have you checked SYSTEM PREFERENCES>DISPLAY>RESOLUTIONS?
    Or you may have the display zoomed in.  CONTROL with a two finger drag on the trackpad towards you will take care of that.
