Not sure what happened, but the screen of my Macbook Air looks like this. The only thing i did differently today before this happened was use that cleaning spray on the screen. Does anyone know what this is and how to fix it?

Hi all, So I recently bought two LG 25UM56 UltraWide monitors for my new table setup. I bought these two in a hurry and I didn't fully research how I was going to use them. Apparently, my late 2008 white unibody Macbook (running El Capitan) can't handle extending the display to two monitors...

I've been researching this for hours and can't find a clear answer: Does the LG 34UM95 ultra wide monitor work with the 13-inch Retina MacBook Pro at 60Hz?? And if so, does it work at 60Hz over Thunderbolt? All of the posts/articles/comments I can find aren't specific about refresh rate or...

Hello, my MacBook Pro 13" mid-2010 does not wake up from sleep when plugged into a power source. If it runs on battery it wakes up just fine. I've tried to reset PRAM and SMC (although I'm not sure the latter was successful, I read somewhere that the light on the MagSafe should change color...

Hi all, Have been having some booting issues with my MacBook Pro '13 (Summer 2012) as of today and was hoping I could get some help here. I've had this laptop since Jan '13 and asides from some kernel panic issues which were causing it to restart that were resolved when I updated to Mavericks...

So i just installed a new SSD for my MacBook Pro 13, Mid-2009. Formatted externally, booted up with 'Option', clicked on the drive, and all is well. However, it doesn't boot up as it should normally (apple logo after powering on, etc.) It seems i have to always do the 'Hold Option' thing and...

I'm running Office 2016 under El Capitan on a new MacBook 13". No problem downloading any update, except for the Microsoft Office Updates.. As if some kind of "firewall" prevents starting the download. I've tested downloading over 4G through hotspot with my iPhone, and then the download does...

My new MacBook 13" doesn't connect automatically to a WiFi network. So basically when I'm at home I open my MacBook, disconnect the Wifi and reconnect the Wifi in order to be able to check my e-mail... Doesn't happen with my other devices. Anyone has an idea?

Hello all, **Lots of detail below. At the end is a TL;DR if you'd like to skip to that. TIA.** A week ago I noticed my 2011 MBP (Mountain Lion) was acting sluggish, slow to respond with static on one of the windows (when I opened it up and logged in, the first program on the screen would...
