A lot of times when I open my MacBook the screen will glitch for a second or two and be colorful and lines; it goes to normal afterwards. I was wondering if this was a hardware problem that should be checked out.
MacBook, iOS 10.2.1, null
Hey katiedoran35!
What kind of MacBook is it? It could be a hardware problem, but if you have an external display plugged in, this could also be causing problems. If you let me know what kind of MacBook it is model/year/screen size I can help you more.
Have a early 2016 Retina MacBook and have experienced similar - but only if put to sleep for a short period of time and then open again. Get a Checkerboard glitch for a few seconds and then all normal again. If in sleep for longer time and open lid again - no checkerboard effect.
Macbook pro 13' 2017. I called apple support around 4 times to solve the issue, no help. Reset PRAM, the whole system, etc. but no answer. I took it into the genius bar at the apple store I bought it from, and they replaced the logic board and some wires. This didn't solve the issue. I then went back to the store to see what they could do about it, but the genius bar employee wasn't allowed to tell me any information they had on this issue and that there was nothing he could do for me. He told me to wait because they "think" it's a software issue. This is funny because they actually don't know what's causing the problem hence they're inability to fix the issue.
Change your policy or give an exception to those with this issue.
