MB anything less than 90 degrees...no backlight

[Vixter]

Hi guys

I have been wondering if anyone else has experienced a similar thing...

I can't lower my Macbook screen less than 90 degrees without losing the backlight to my screen, it doesn't go to sleep because under decent lighting I can still see the open applications running, I'm pretty sure it's getting worse on the amount I can keep it open by...

Is it something stupid like a setting I've messed around with? Or something a bit worse?

Muchos thanks

Sounds about right to me. That sounds like the backlight connector is f'd

It's nothing to worry about. That's perfectly normal on MacBooks






Really, take it to an Apple store!
