Hi, ich habe es zwar nicht repariert bekommen, aber ein leichtes bis heftiges Klopfen hinten unten auf das Display hilft immer. Aber es wird auch immer schlimmer...

Thanks for reply dude :) I had this problem fixed by replacing whole screen at Apple service :) they did it for free cz I had MacAir (its 4 years old without extended warranty)

due to the legendary "hinge" problem. By the way its the 3rd(!!!) screen I have on this piece of shit :( Kstatje ja tozhe govorju po russki :P Cheers mate !

It's a graphic card problems. It's the most frequent problem in modern notebooks.

I hope you will not try to fix it in a such way as youtube shows. If you want to extend a life of your mac, just find a normal notebook service who has infra-red soldering station in your region.

Best regards from Russia

EXACTLY what happened to mine. WHat did you end up doing?

After visiting the Apple Store and getting a quote of $430, I took it (ibook) home and used an Alan-wrench and a small Philips screw driver and took the screen apart. Apparently what had happened is the wires that go from the mother-board to the back of the screen had simply become disconnected. So I simply plugged it back in and the desktop appeared. No more white screen. I put it all back together and it works fine. I should go put an application into the Apple store so I can be a genius too.

Hai koemskievolution,

das Herrenhäuser gefällt mir besser als das was ich auf Deinem iBook G4 sehe...

Zudem hat unser iBook G4 seit heute Abend selbe Symptome!!! Nur 2 Wochen nach Deinem Posting...

Ist das nun wieder ein Serienfehler, wie bei den G3-iBooks?!

Bei unserem läuft ein externer Monitor völlig korrekt. Also GrafikChip scheint nicht betroffen zu sein. Aber evtl. der TFT-Treiberbaustein?! Aber vielleicht auch nur das Displaykabel?!?!
