Hi All.

This just started happing yesterday and it's hugely disturbing. My MacBook Pro. MacBook Pro. Mid 2012. i7
the Screen will shake then the will compress into several squished version of the desktop or display till it turns into lines and then it will stop. And work fine for hours after.

Anyone else have this issue? is it the display connector or Os issue?

I did find this. which is sort of like what's happing. Ifixit - glitches
Would love some ideas on what to try before I open it up .

No one? So reset the Pram (fix everyone recommends for anything! hahahah!)
Nothing. But doesn't happen too often so maybe "living with it, until I can't !!!"
Solution for hardware and life problems too! Hahaha!

I think it's most likely hardware. Possibly the connector, possible the video card going out.

The way I usually check is by rebooting and maybe going into recovery mode. Do you get the normal apple logo? If you do, it may not be hardware. If you don't, that's a good sign that it's hardware.

also check the ram and hard drive or ssd. how old/what brand is it? when was the last time you took off bottom cover and cleaned the dust from inside?

You're probably not getting many responses because your thread title and post are poorly written and it's difficult to understand what the problem is.

I figured it out, but most people aren't going to make the effort to understand something so poorly written.

It's probably a hardware issue.

Thanks! that helps.

I have an issue with my mac book pro A1502 which shows in the picture below two vertical lines starting yesterday after replacing the WiFi card. Is anyone can say how to fix this problem?

The connector LVDs connector is small and fragile. I would check you didn't unseat it.
Other than that the screen replacement is a big job and I'm not quite brave enough to tackle it myself.
but more than likely you just have a connector cable issue.

What happens when you tilt your screen?

My issues are Horizontal, but assuming horizontal is a similar beast
or at least genus. Hahahah!
