View 3 RepliesLately as soon as my Mac gets a little bit warm, these start showing up. I've tried the PRAM and SMC resets, repaired permissions, all the general usual fixes.

My 5,1 15" MBP doesn't do this. In fact, by comparison the 5,1's display really is very good.
Anyone else have this? (I'd have merged this with the Red Tint post but it seems another issue).
Mac Mini G4 1.42Ghz. Display is fuzzy and ghosting. Have changed monitor - no improvement. Also monitor lead and VGA adapter.

It seems they set the monitor to not go to sleep and I came back on Tuesday (we were snowed out on Monday) to a monitor that had been on for 3 days solidly.
I have a picture on my desktop that I took in Iceland and now I also have a burned in outline of the icebergs across the bottom third of my screen.
It's most noticeable across darker backgrounds and is a total pain because I'm working with graphics and page layout and have a ribbon of discolouration running through everything.
Is there a way to get rid of this? other than leaving a complex screen saver running overnight?
i wrote a thread last week about some pixel issues. i've now figured out the cause of the faint pixel lines that have mysteriously begun to appear on the far left part of my screen. the pixel lines appear where i have had application windows up for an extended amount of time. saturday i had safari open for only an hour or two and a line developed on the left edge of the window, which remained there for several hours afterwards. i've also noticed lines develop on the bottom of the window as well. the pixel lines stay burned in for a couple hours and then slowly fade to normal. this makes my claim a little more tricky i think.
i've tried switching from a dark desktop background to a lighter grey, but the ghost lines still manage to show up if the computer gets used for more than just a brief period of time.
it's annoying and will probably only get worse, so i think it's time to head up to the apple store. what are my chances of them repairing/replacing my iMac? (it's less than a year old and therefore under warranty.)
Okay, well I bought this display off of craigslist and when I have a webpage up for 10 seconds or more and minimize the screen, I can see like a faded ghost image of the screen for about a minute or so I guess, maybe a little longer.
Does anyone know how I can resolve this with having to change the LCD screen?
I'm suddenly getting a ghosting effect on my Macbook's screen and text in documents and windows is sometimes barely readable. Strangely the machine starts up with a perfect image for a short time, then changes, so I suspect software rather than hardware. I've tried playing with settings in system preferences as well as repairing permissions. Should I perhaps try a PMU reset?
