Will green line down the center of screen get worse?

Thin vertical green line just appeared down the center of my macbook pro. of course my apple care protection plan just expired two months ago.
Does anyone know the cause of this type of line? And if i do nothing will it get worse?

This is a problem with the screen. Eventually more lines will appear but that is because of those lines failing or one pixel on the line being stuck. It is like not something you caused and can only be fixed by replacement of the screen. You may perhaps try calling apple and seeing what they can do about it for you since applecare was so recent.

  • HT201177 MY MACBOOK PRO IS SHOWN GREEN LINE IN THE CENTER OF THE SCREEN

    MY MACBOOK PRO IS SHOWN GREEN LINE IN THE CENTER OF THE SCREEN

    It is probably a display or display connector issue. To check this, take a screenshot of the display by pressing Command, Shift and 3 keys. Then, open the screenshot created in Desktop, and see if the line appears. If not, it is a display issue.
    If you have not got a MacBook Pro with Retina display, you can repair this yourself. You just need to look for the display connector of your MacBook Pro model in the Internet and install it, and if this does not work, you have to replace the whole display.
    However, if you do not know a lot about computers or your Mac is in warranty, you should take the Mac to an Apple Store or reseller to get it repaired

  • My nano has a green line down the screen

    My ipod nano is not even a year old and suddenly has a green line down the middle of the display.
    I plugged it in to my Mac desktop and restored it using iTunes but that didn't help.

    Could be the graphics card.

    I grasp that you are having an issue with the display but if you adjust the position of the display it disappears.
    Here is a link to Display Quality Issues that may help.
    As you stated it goes away when you reposition the display the connection cable may have become  loose or damaged from opening and closing the display.
    Here is a link to the  HP Pavilion 14 Notebook PC, HP Pavilion 14 Touchsmart Notebook PC, HP Pavilion 14 Touchsmart Ultrabo.... Chapter 4 page 36 has removal instructions that may assist you in checking for that problem.

  • Yellow Line Down the center of the screen

    I have a 2006 17" intel based iMAC running Leopard 10.5.8.
    And when I booted it up a yellow line just appeared right down the center of my screen.
    I've tried rebooting and zapping the PRAM and running FSCK. I called Apple support and a specialist told me to unplug it wait 30 seconds and restart it. But none of these worked.
    Does anyone else have this issue and if so what did you do to fix it.
    Oh and my Apple Care Extended warranty JUST expired a month ago.

    I've got two of them...out of warranty. They do not go away.
    They are annoying. Get the screen fixed while it's under warranty

  • Booklet Gutter Issue - When I print a booklet at 11x17, it causes a large white line down the center. But, when I try the same thing at 8.5x11 it prints side by side as it should. Help?

    I have a 36 page booklet (each page is 8x5.5in). I have exported the booklet from InDesign as Pages. In Acrobat, when I select Print Booklet and 11x17 paper, it created a large white gutter down the center and the pages do not back up to each other.
    I tried the same thing with 8.5x11 paper and they pages backed up to each other correctly with no white space down the center.
    I tried again at 11x17 (size needed to print my booklet full size), and it's still causing the large white gutter. It's nearly half an inch or larger.
    Help is VERY appreciated!

  • Pink vertical line in the center of screen on Qosmio G series

    Appears to be LCD hardware problem as line is not there if external monitor used. This is the second LCD for this unit that is 2.5 years old, and in which the heat sink problem inherent in the original design of this PC has supposedly been fixed. Speakers are now starting to produce feedback if volume turned to half or more, probably due to earlier heat sink problem. In any event, Toshiba's position is they've fixed it twice for "free", and my position is a 2.5-year old $3,800 laptop should not have had to be fixed at all, yet.
    My question is this (and I couldn't get a straight answer from the Toshiba customer support person I just talked with): How do I order a new LCD for a Qosmio G15-R from Toshiba, and how much is it going to cost? I don't want to know about repair centers, since there aren't any within a hundred miles of me, and I am not interested in sending my laptop to another techie either in this or any other state. I just want the part sent to me, as i am fully qualified to install it even though I am no longer in the business. Will somebody, preferably someone who speaks recognizable English, or German, or Spanish, or even French, provide me with a simple answer to my two simple questions. Thank you.

    Hi there,
    I am sorry that you had so bad experience with your machine, I had many probs with my tecra S4 too, but they fixed it without problems. I think it has something with the repair center to do, where you´re giving your machine for repair.
    My machine was in 3 (!!) service centers and only the last two were able to fix my problem. (They were two separate probs, one of them was my fault -> chianti on my keyboard :( )
    So, if you need a new panel then you must not place your order to toshiba. You can also order a new or used panel in some spare parts onlineshops.
    I don´t know if you already looked, it seems you didn´t, otherwise you won´t write here.
    It would be interesting which machine you exactly have, maybe I can help you finding a new panel for an accurate price ;)
    Don´t worry mate, there are solutions for everything.
    Nice weekend

  • Zen v 1 G-line down the cen

    I have owned?a zen v G ?for?5 months and it has worked flawlessly. It has not been dropped or abused. Recently it developed a line down the center of the screen. It is usually darker than the backround when the background is yellow it is red. It has not affected any functions of the player, but is this a prelude to a bigger issue?I have rebooted it. Updated the firmware and rebooted it, but the line remains. Contacted creative and they also said to do the above. If it has fixed it send it back (charge included of course since it is past 90 days)Any ideas on how to fix this?Thanks!J

    hi lexstar ,?I have the same problem when I got my Zen V plus last December and I bring down to Creative shop.....and they have it replaced. :smileyvery-happy::smileyvery-happy:

  • My 06' Macbook Pro crashed with vertical, green pixelated lines and now will not advance past the turn-on screen with the apple filled with green lines as well. Then, it says to hold down the power button to restart. Help?

    My 06' Macbook Pro crashed with vertical, green pixelated lines and now will not advance past the turn-on screen with the apple filled with green lines as well. Then, it says to hold down the power button to restart. I have tried several times to get it past this point but tnothing helped.
    I have an appointment at the Apple store today, but was wondering : will all of the information and files on my desktop be lost? Or is this a logic board problem?
    Any help is much MUCH appricated.

    I'm not sure, if you're out of warrenty it'll cost quite a bit for the replacement of the logic board replacement...unless you have apple care. you could ask apple to try and recover your hard drive but i'm not sure.
