Can be the Logo light up?

According to some sources, I got to know that the Apple logo can be light up in newer MacBook like MacBook Pro M1 by installing Mac Flash Player.



Is it true?


Please share your ideas 👍🏻

Good grief, where do people find such silliness? No, it is not true. I don’t know the source of your quoted text, but it is 100% nonsense. Do not download anything based on such a ridiculous message.

'Logo lighting up' was accomplished in older models by machining out a hole in the aluminum display-cover in the shape of the white Apple logo. When the screen backlight lit up, the logo would glow.


That feature was removed, possibly because the display backlighting is done a different way (with too little light spilling out the back), or possibly for no longer being able to meet EMI-RFI shielding requirements, or possibly as a cost reduction.

This sounds like a phishing attempt to install malware/adware...



The backlit Apple logo is no more, starting about 2016 this feature has been removed.
