Lines on screen Macbook

Picked up my Macbook to the table and these lines appeared. First time that's ever happened.

Any info on what happened actually technically?

Thank you.

The best option is an appointment at an Apple store genius bar.  The assessment will be free.

You can connect a monitor on the MBP.  If the monitor image is good, the display or the connection to the screen is defective.  If the monitor is the same as the display, the GPU is the prime suspect.

Ciao.

  • 2005 failure screen MacBook Pro?

    2005 old MacBook Pro Active. But the start screen starts shows the colored vertical lines and large white space in the right corner. Malfunction of equipment with LCD?  I tried methods listed on the support page. Problem persists.

    'Impact' point on the lower right part of the screen indicates that the computer was to be abandoned, or that it was something press against the screen, like a finger or something.

    It sounds like accidental damage, not a malfunction of the equipment.

  • Failure screen MacBook Air 13

    Hi all

    Firstly, my apologies because of my English skills.

    I recently had a problem in my Macbook Air 13 (2014). I was on the internet with Safari and the left side of the screen started to Flash some lights. After a minute or two, 15% of the left side went completely wrong. There are a few vertical lines, the colors are completely false, as the pixels with colors, and it looks like a mirror. The left is on the right and the right is on the left. Vertical lines appear also in the first black screen with an Apple, and if I start by pressing cmd + s to try a fsck, this black screen is also affected. However, an external monitor works perfectly well.

    Update checked

    Tap the box, and nothing happens.

    Energy is something (alt + ctrl + key lights)

    Material (reset and pressing D) test done. It says nothing about the screen.

  • Of failure, white screen MacBook Pro HARD drive try to boot from the external HARD drive

    Hello

    I have a 2008 Macbook Pro which is having some problems, I was able to fix them, but eventually the hard drive failed. I know that because at startup until it would have a white screen Uni (no logo) and you can hear a clicking on in the lower left corner. I thought initially it was a memory problem, but after opening and verification of memory, it's clearly the hard drive.

    I solved this problem temporarily (until I can replace the HARD disk) by installing El captain on an external HARD disc and start from that. Here's the twist, I couldn't he can begin to El captain, I tried CMD + R, CMD + OPT + R, CMD + OPT + R + P and now shift. Everything that's happened would be that clicks would cease to release the keys.

    I left the macbook on while I'm at work, when I got home it was on the screen to connect the external HARD drive.

    I accidentally closed the macbook yesterday and again once when I tried to log on, I could not and I left it on a white screen while I was sleeping. There is a possibility that he may have launched from the HARD drive when I get home, but if not, is there something that escapes me to force do this?

    See you soon

    Usually start up to a blank screen without the Apple Logo, may report one of the following:

    • Hardware failure
    • Boot drive is not recognized as valid and updated updated
    • OS X essential software is missing, hurt moved or renamed or corrupt
    • A firmware update is necessary

    No matter who, in order to boot from an external drive "bootable", you would normally hold down the Option key until you get a screen that offers a number of devices to try to boot from.

    Alternatively, you can try holding down the C key to try to boot from the external drive.

    If none of these startup options work, then the bootable disc or the USB port on your MacBook Pro can be the question.

    Since you have a Mac pre-2013, if you hold down the D key while booting, the built-in Apple Hardware Test should start up.  This can help to identify hardware problems.

  • Crack of 1 pixel screen MacBook Pro early 2015

    Hi all

    I own a MacBook Pro of the 2015 at the beginning and I recently discovered a problem with the retina display (so-called "gorilla glass").

    I only have the MacBook since January this year, and I have recently discovered a small hole about 1 pixel wide screen. It seems that the screen is cracked and I see directly in the hole of the next layer of the screen. At first, I thought it was just some dust and I tried to clean it up, but it did not help.

    I did some research and saw that people also had similar problems and sudently woke up seeing these annoying small cracks on the screen.

    Here are some videos and pictures of what it looks like:

    https://goo.GL/photos/LthBkUrM9eWDs5qM8

    What I'm curious to know, is if this applies to the guarantee and if I can send it to apple so that they can change my screen.

    I understand that it looks like it was an accident made by me, but it's not.

    I can still use the MacBook, but that little crack is so boring, it's like a distraction.

    Anyone apple support can help me with this? The nature of my question is eligible for the guarantee of apple?

    You better Genius Bar appointment to show the screen of your MacBook Pro and ask if she applies for warranty.

    I think you should pay for the cost of replacement LCD, however.

  • How is it: freezes/different colors of the screen Macbook pro 2012

    Hello

    About two weeks, the screen of my mbp has suddenly started to freeze and the screen turned green. After not touching a few hours, it worked like nothing happened.

    But since yesterday the same bug reappeared with the screen turning blue!

    The bug looks like this:

    A few months ago the tablecloth has been replaced because when I turned on the mbp, kept screen frozen with the Apple logo on the gray screen. I don't know if that is related to this new problem.

    Anyone know what could be the problem? If pain or else onboard graphics?

    My mbp has the latest update available...

    Thanks for help

  • Toshiba Satellite U400 - purple lines on screen

    Hi, I had my laptop for about 2 years now, and recently, I noticed that when the screen is dark (as a background or black background dark) purple blurry horizontal lines appear at the top of the screen. Like at the top of 2 millimeters of the screen.

    I also noticed that when I put pressure on the area around the touch pad the screen begins to glitch out and go spastic. Like all the purple lines. Especially around the bar at the bottom of the screen.

    If I set the background to white lines disappear however and the affects to put pressure on the area around the touch pad are much less visible (if at all, I have to test it more)

    Also when I plug in an external monitor (VGA) there is no problem on the external display.

    So my question is, someone knows something similar and also it would be a software or hardware problem? And what do I do now?

    Thank you

    Looks like a hardware problem. If the screen deforms when the base is pressed, then the graphics chip is probably defective. An FSL may quote you a new Mainboard.

  • Satellite Pro A10 - 3mm thickness vertical line on screen

    I have a thick vertical line of 3mm on the screen seems to come up in colors, it generally moved to gray.

    The display was damaged - or is this some sort of driver problem.

    Hello

    It looks like a hardware malfunction. UPS may be a FL. But I m not 100% sure.
    What you can do? Well, if it's really a hardware fault so the only way is to contact Toshiba service. But it could also be a strange software problem. In this case, the best way is to recover the operating system and/or update the graphics driver. You can also check your BIOS version. If there is a newer version, then try to upgrade the version of the BIOS.
    But if the material is broken, then contact ASP.

  • Satellite X 200-green lines on screen

    Have you ever had this problem?

    Sorry for my English.

    Thank you

    Hello!

    Do you have this problem on an external monitor too or only on the screen internal? Maybe it s not a graphics card problem. Check it!

    If you have the same problem on the external monitor, you must go to an ASP. I think that map graphic or let's say the motherboard needs to be replaced. :(

  • Green vertical line on screen - Satellite P30 Pro

    A single thin green vertical line appeared about a sixth of the way across the screen. It works up and down continuously and immediately displays the screen is activated.

    I presume that this indicates a hardware failure - can anyone confirm please? Guess I'm interested in large bills?

    Hi Ian

    How is - someone must provide an exactly fault diagnosis without putting the hand on this laptop?
    Here, we can suggest and discuss only!

    If she really looks like a hardware problem, but the question is; What s wrong.
    In my opinion, you must connect the external monitor to the laptop. Check if the same vertical line appears on the second screen!

    If Yes, then the chances are high that the graphics card is broken! This could be a case value because the GPU is soldered on the Board and the entire motherboard must be replaced to solve this problem.
