Hi!
So, my MacBook Air 2018 13 inch displays this pink glitch screen each time it turns on (please see photo).
A 2 days ago, it only showed this when I moved my screen a certain way but if I moved it forward a bit, it displayed normally & also connected to my external monitor.
Today, I made the mistake of bringing my laptop to work with me and now it’s stuck on the pink glitch screen no matter what I do. It won’t display anything on my external monitor either. I’m not sure if it got worse because I moved it around today but either way, I’m sad lol
I’m going to bring it into Genius Bar for a look, but I also want to avoid an expensive fix or getting a whole new laptop if possible because money is a little tight right now…but I would prefer getting it fixed rather than buying a new once if this can be fixed even!
I just wanted to see if anyone else had any experience with this or if there is anything else I should know? Thank you!
This might be hard, but i believe its a logic board issue, again i could be wrong i am no expert, but at first i thought it could be the screen cable not being seated probably but, if it shows purple screen it could be anything from ram malfunctioning to an issue in the logic board, now it depends on luck if you have apple care good for you, but if you dont you can cross your fingers to to a repair shop and hope for the best. Also in case its a logic board or any internal issue it would cost a lot to fix. Hope this could help in some way :)
Thank you so much, this was very helpful and I appreciate it a lot!!
I don’t have AppleCare+ lol 😭 so I will bring it to a repair shop and try my luck there, but am looking at options for get a refurbished one as well (whichever is cheapest 🥲).
Thank you again!!
