    MBA 1,1-6,2 Mid-2012 MacBook Air - Source of display flickering?

    So I picked up a cheap Mid-2012 MacBook Air 5,2/A1466 with a working battery and an SSD in good shape, with a display hinge that was a tad loose. That was all fine. But I later discovered subtle, but very noticeable flickering with the display, where the brightness would modulate up and down in...

    iMac M1 2021 screen discolouration

    I was using my iMac, and then took about an hour break from work, and when I came back to it the screen was dark and the colours were all distorted. Almost like the colours were inverted, but not quite. I attached a photo. I tried restarting it, and shut it down for a bit and came back to it...

    How can I make a window open on the same display as the dock I use to open it??

    I feel like I'm missing something obvious here. I don't know why it's not default behavior to open a window on the same display you click to open it.

    Screen Flicker On Login (Monterey 12.7.5)

    Howdy, I just got a refurbished MB Pro 2015 and noticed upon login the screen flickers twice before taking me into my account. My last unit didn't do this so naturally I'm concerned if this is signaling me of a potential ssd drive issue in the future? I'm running MacOS Monterey 12.7.5 and just...

    iPad Pro iPad Pro 11” (M4): Not able to answer call when MoreSpace option is enabled on Display.

    Hi all, As per subject I found this strange behaviour (always replicable) on my iPad PRO 11” M4. I suspect that the problem is much more widespread also on other iPad. When Stage Manager is TURNED ON, and the More Space option is enabled from Settings/Display/Display Zoom, iPad is receiving...

First thing we did was reboot it, line still there...

    New Displays only with Thunderbolt 5

    I am new here and would like to start with a thought. The Studio Display is really nice. It can't do much, but it looks very good and thanks to Samsung we know that it's not as expensive as we all thought at first. It's also virtually unique on the market in terms of build quality. The Pro...

    Hello all. I got one of the new M3 Pro MacBook Pros recently and less than a month after purchase, the bottom patch connecting the display to the main body seems to have detached itself.

    Do M3 MBPs use true 10-bit panels?

    I think there's consensus that the Pro Display XDR is a true 10-bit panel. In other words, in theory, it does not perform temporal dithering/FRC (Frame Rate Control) on the image. With that in mind, if you look at the marketing for the M3 MBPs, it mentions the following: XDR (Extreme Dynamic...

    Has anyone paired 2 Studio Displays with Pro XDR?

    I am looking to turn my single Pro Display XDR into a 3 monitor setup and was considering adding on new Studio Displays on either side. For anyone that has done this, does the shorter height or lower quality difference throw you off at all from the XDR? Any issues in general? Please upload...
