When I have been cleaning my Mac's screen, there have been some strange marks and smudges that are left after. Does anybody know how to get rid of these? Thanks.
MacBook Pro, Mac OS X (10.7.5)
I used a wet cloth the one provided with my MacBook Pro, the smudges are not under the screen but are left by the cloth or the wetness. I am unsure.
Wet with what? Read the cleaning instructions in the user manual that came with your computer.
If anyone cares, i use an eyeglass cleaner designed for glasses for coated glasses. Turn off the computer, sprat some cleaner on a micro fiber cloth, support the screen from behind to keep it from from moving and clean the screen.. do not put any pressure on the screen, wipe gently, and if necessary do it again. Be very gentle, and support the screen.nesscesary. Gentle is the key word here. Hope this helps.
I purchased a few days ago an 'electronics' cleaner manufactured by Johnson under the Windex label plus a few microfiber cloths. I used a small cloth to apply the liquid and a large one to dry it off. So far so good.
It may very well be that it is just Windex repackaged and sold at 5 time the price, but I suspect not.
Ciao.
Let the cloth provided by Apple dry and wipe the screen gently.
Smudges will go away.
There are products sold in Apple store, but they are not necessary.
Follow the instructions given in the Apple article that I posted the link to.
Best.
If you don't wear glasses you do not about lens cleaners, but that's what I use. I NEVER spray on to a screen - laptop or monitor - but spray on to a soft lint free rag. Then I wipe the screen with the rag. Been doing this for 25+ years without a mishap.
Your local optician should have plenty bottles of lens cleaner. No idea what they cost, I get mine free.

I guess you don't live in Toronto!
How do you clean a MacBook Pro screen without making it leave marks and smudges?
