Something gets caught between the screen and keyboard. You close the lid on a small object\u2014or open your bag and discover a crack that definitely wasn't there yesterday.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"300\" data-end=\"361\">Now you're staring at a damaged MacBook screen and wondering:\u00a0<strong data-start=\"363\" data-end=\"473\">Can it be repaired? How much will it cost? Will AppleCare+ cover it? And is the MacBook even worth fixing?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p data-start=\"475\" data-end=\"577\">The good news is that a <strong data-start=\"499\" data-end=\"576\">cracked MacBook screen doesn't automatically mean you need a new computer<\/strong>.\u00a0Here's what you should know before deciding what to do next.<\/p>\n<h2 data-section-id=\"ktsds5\" data-start=\"646\" data-end=\"694\">What Does a Damaged MacBook Screen Look Like?<\/h2>\n<p data-start=\"696\" data-end=\"757\">Screen damage isn't always an obvious crack across the glass.\u00a0MacBook display problems can appear as:<\/p>\n<ul data-start=\"800\" data-end=\"1117\">\n<li data-section-id=\"nnu7yz\" data-start=\"800\" data-end=\"815\">Cracked glass<\/li>\n<li data-section-id=\"y7t0f3\" data-start=\"816\" data-end=\"843\">Black areas on the screen<\/li>\n<li data-section-id=\"gvs520\" data-start=\"844\" data-end=\"882\">Colored vertical or horizontal lines<\/li>\n<li data-section-id=\"m4indg\" data-start=\"883\" data-end=\"895\">Flickering<\/li>\n<li data-section-id=\"po32tq\" data-start=\"896\" data-end=\"918\">Ink-like black spots<\/li>\n<li data-section-id=\"2xesr5\" data-start=\"919\" data-end=\"947\">Bright or discolored areas<\/li>\n<li data-section-id=\"1ggjrok\" data-start=\"948\" data-end=\"992\">Part of the screen not displaying an image<\/li>\n<li data-section-id=\"v8ofm0\" data-start=\"993\" data-end=\"1021\">A completely black display<\/li>\n<li data-section-id=\"1730pvi\" data-start=\"1022\" data-end=\"1040\">Distorted images<\/li>\n<li data-section-id=\"7nratf\" data-start=\"1041\" data-end=\"1071\">Screen damage near the hinge<\/li>\n<li data-section-id=\"3byn25\" data-start=\"1072\" data-end=\"1117\">A display that works only at certain angles<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p data-start=\"1119\" data-end=\"1216\">Sometimes the outside of the screen looks almost perfect while the display underneath is damaged.\u00a0That's why it's important to distinguish between a <strong data-start=\"1269\" data-end=\"1325\">physical display failure and another MacBook problem<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<h2 data-section-id=\"z6ms5a\" data-start=\"1333\" data-end=\"1406\">1. The Glass Doesn't Have to Look Cracked for the Display to Be Damaged<\/h2>\n<p data-start=\"1408\" data-end=\"1438\">This surprises many customers.\u00a0You can have serious internal display damage without seeing a dramatic crack on the outside.\u00a0For example, you may open your MacBook and see:<\/p>\n<ul data-start=\"1583\" data-end=\"1714\">\n<li data-section-id=\"3na0p2\" data-start=\"1583\" data-end=\"1598\">Black streaks<\/li>\n<li data-section-id=\"4lw2cg\" data-start=\"1599\" data-end=\"1619\">Multicolored lines<\/li>\n<li data-section-id=\"1lefih0\" data-start=\"1620\" data-end=\"1640\">A large black area<\/li>\n<li data-section-id=\"cl6fnc\" data-start=\"1641\" data-end=\"1668\">Half of the image missing<\/li>\n<li data-section-id=\"1uwdfgp\" data-start=\"1669\" data-end=\"1714\">Strange patterns that look like spilled ink<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p data-start=\"1716\" data-end=\"1779\">Those symptoms can indicate damage to the display panel itself.\u00a0If the problem appeared immediately after an impact, pressure on the lid, or closing the MacBook on an object, physical damage is a strong possibility.<\/p>\n<h2 data-section-id=\"1knx4eb\" data-start=\"1939\" data-end=\"1989\">2. Be Careful What You Close Inside Your MacBook<\/h2>\n<p data-start=\"1991\" data-end=\"2016\">Modern MacBooks are thin.\u00a0Very thin.\u00a0That means there isn't much extra space between the display and the top case when the computer is closed.\u00a0Objects such as:<\/p>\n<ul data-start=\"2155\" data-end=\"2264\">\n<li data-section-id=\"1j49yv4\" data-start=\"2155\" data-end=\"2161\">Pens<\/li>\n<li data-section-id=\"10kduli\" data-start=\"2162\" data-end=\"2171\">Pencils<\/li>\n<li data-section-id=\"1q2ji72\" data-start=\"2172\" data-end=\"2181\">Earbuds<\/li>\n<li data-section-id=\"hgqm7h\" data-start=\"2182\" data-end=\"2199\">Charging cables<\/li>\n<li data-section-id=\"bcmnnf\" data-start=\"2200\" data-end=\"2213\">Paper clips<\/li>\n<li data-section-id=\"1ph4dz8\" data-start=\"2214\" data-end=\"2223\">Staples<\/li>\n<li data-section-id=\"16x9k40\" data-start=\"2224\" data-end=\"2231\">Coins<\/li>\n<li data-section-id=\"1onjteb\" data-start=\"2232\" data-end=\"2248\">Small adapters<\/li>\n<li data-section-id=\"14qo3e7\" data-start=\"2249\" data-end=\"2264\">Camera covers<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p data-start=\"2266\" data-end=\"2360\">can damage the display if they're trapped between the screen and keyboard when the lid closes.\u00a0Even something that looks harmless can concentrate enough pressure in one small area to damage the panel.<\/p>\n<h3 data-section-id=\"5scucs\" data-start=\"2469\" data-end=\"2495\">Check Before You Close<\/h3>\n<p data-start=\"2497\" data-end=\"2600\">A quick glance at the keyboard before closing your MacBook can save you from a very expensive surprise.<\/p>\n<h2 data-section-id=\"1jd3c5n\" data-start=\"2607\" data-end=\"2643\">3. Think Twice About Webcam Covers<\/h2>\n<p data-start=\"2645\" data-end=\"2838\">Those little sliding webcam covers may seem like a good privacy accessory, but adding anything between a MacBook display and keyboard can create additional pressure when the computer is closed.\u00a0Apple designs Mac notebooks with very tight clearances.\u00a0If you want additional camera privacy, it's worth considering solutions that don't place a thick object between the screen and keyboard.<\/p>\n<h2 data-section-id=\"4etdog\" data-start=\"3040\" data-end=\"3096\">4. Can You Keep Using a MacBook With a Cracked Screen?<\/h2>\n<p data-start=\"3098\" data-end=\"3137\">Sometimes\u2014but it depends on the damage.\u00a0If the MacBook is otherwise functioning and the display remains usable, you may be able to continue using it temporarily.\u00a0However, damaged displays can worsen.\u00a0A small damaged area can potentially become:<\/p>\n<ul data-start=\"3347\" data-end=\"3424\">\n<li data-section-id=\"1pa9c87\" data-start=\"3347\" data-end=\"3355\">Larger<\/li>\n<li data-section-id=\"6srhdr\" data-start=\"3356\" data-end=\"3372\">More distorted<\/li>\n<li data-section-id=\"1z0q4oj\" data-start=\"3373\" data-end=\"3391\">Completely black<\/li>\n<li data-section-id=\"1e1i95q\" data-start=\"3392\" data-end=\"3424\">Difficult or impossible to use<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p data-start=\"3426\" data-end=\"3501\">There may also be sharp damaged edges depending on the nature of the break.\u00a0If you need the computer for work or school, don't wait until the display becomes completely unusable before thinking about your files.\u00a0<strong data-start=\"3640\" data-end=\"3661\">Back up your Mac!<\/strong><\/p>\n<h2 data-section-id=\"1yqhu8q\" data-start=\"3668\" data-end=\"3711\">5. Can I Use an External Monitor Instead?<\/h2>\n<p data-start=\"3713\" data-end=\"3722\">Possibly.\u00a0If your MacBook itself is working but the built-in display is damaged, connecting an external monitor may allow you to continue accessing the computer.\u00a0This can be particularly useful for:<\/p>\n<ul data-start=\"3915\" data-end=\"4057\">\n<li data-section-id=\"z41byt\" data-start=\"3915\" data-end=\"3943\">Backing up important files<\/li>\n<li data-section-id=\"1gj011\" data-start=\"3944\" data-end=\"3967\">Finishing urgent work<\/li>\n<li data-section-id=\"1qlq8y0\" data-start=\"3968\" data-end=\"4010\">Confirming the Mac itself still operates<\/li>\n<li data-section-id=\"tne6ju\" data-start=\"4011\" data-end=\"4057\">Temporarily using the computer before repair<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p data-start=\"4059\" data-end=\"4103\">However, an external monitor isn't a repair.\u00a0If you purchased a MacBook because you need a portable computer, carrying a monitor around obviously isn't much of a solution.<\/p>\n<h2 data-section-id=\"f5hgqr\" data-start=\"4238\" data-end=\"4284\">6. How Much Does MacBook Screen Repair Cost?<\/h2>\n<p data-start=\"4286\" data-end=\"4378\">This is one of the most common questions\u2014and unfortunately, there isn't one universal price.\u00a0MacBook screen repair cost depends on factors including:<\/p>\n<ul data-start=\"4438\" data-end=\"4592\">\n<li data-section-id=\"16art6y\" data-start=\"4438\" data-end=\"4459\">Exact MacBook model<\/li>\n<li data-section-id=\"168rim9\" data-start=\"4460\" data-end=\"4473\">Screen size<\/li>\n<li data-section-id=\"1j48xfr\" data-start=\"4474\" data-end=\"4480\">Year<\/li>\n<li data-section-id=\"eie4oz\" data-start=\"4481\" data-end=\"4498\">Type of display<\/li>\n<li data-section-id=\"1t7hhto\" data-start=\"4499\" data-end=\"4517\">Extent of damage<\/li>\n<li data-section-id=\"pdhhxk\" data-start=\"4518\" data-end=\"4535\">Warranty status<\/li>\n<li data-section-id=\"1r3bmj4\" data-start=\"4536\" data-end=\"4557\">AppleCare+ coverage<\/li>\n<li data-section-id=\"1cbwzbf\" data-start=\"4558\" data-end=\"4592\">Whether additional damage exists<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p data-start=\"4594\" data-end=\"4710\">A MacBook Air display and a high-end MacBook Pro display aren't necessarily going to cost the same amount to repair.\u00a0That's why an accurate estimate starts with identifying the <strong data-start=\"4772\" data-end=\"4815\">exact MacBook model and coverage status<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<h2 data-section-id=\"1vsl3we\" data-start=\"4823\" data-end=\"4889\">7. Does Apple's Limited Warranty Cover a Cracked MacBook Screen?<\/h2>\n<p data-start=\"4891\" data-end=\"5010\">Generally, Apple's standard limited warranty is intended to cover eligible manufacturing defects\u2014not accidental damage.\u00a0If the screen was cracked because the MacBook was dropped, hit, crushed, or closed on an object, that would generally be considered accidental damage rather than a manufacturing defect.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"5199\" data-end=\"5260\">However, don't automatically assume what is or isn't covered.\u00a0An <strong data-start=\"5265\" data-end=\"5368\">Apple Authorized Service Provider can inspect the Mac and verify its warranty or AppleCare coverage<\/strong> before the repair.<\/p>\n<h2 data-section-id=\"1dt8trv\" data-start=\"5394\" data-end=\"5446\">8. Does AppleCare+ Cover a Cracked MacBook Screen?<\/h2>\n<p data-start=\"5448\" data-end=\"5611\">If your Mac is covered by <strong data-start=\"5474\" data-end=\"5488\">AppleCare+<\/strong>, accidental damage may be eligible for service subject to the terms, conditions, and applicable service fees of your plan.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"5613\" data-end=\"5767\">That's one reason it's important to know whether you have AppleCare+ before assuming a damaged screen will cost you the full out-of-warranty repair price.<\/p>\n<h3 data-section-id=\"1s8259\" data-start=\"5769\" data-end=\"5805\">Not Sure If You Have AppleCare+?<\/h3>\n<p data-start=\"5807\" data-end=\"5867\">Your coverage can be checked using your Mac's serial number.\u00a0At Computer Concepts, we can also help determine the coverage status when evaluating your Mac for service.<\/p>\n<h2 data-section-id=\"iy42xr\" data-start=\"5982\" data-end=\"6040\">9. Apple Authorized Repair vs. Independent Screen Repair<\/h2>\n<p data-start=\"6042\" data-end=\"6128\">When shopping for MacBook screen repair, price shouldn't be the only question you ask.\u00a0You should also ask:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li data-start=\"6152\" data-end=\"6185\">What part is being installed?<\/li>\n<li data-start=\"6152\" data-end=\"6185\">Who is performing the repair?<\/li>\n<li data-start=\"6152\" data-end=\"6185\">Is the shop Apple Authorized?<\/li>\n<li data-start=\"6152\" data-end=\"6185\">What warranty comes with the repair?<\/li>\n<li data-start=\"6152\" data-end=\"6185\">Will the repair be performed according to Apple's procedures?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p data-start=\"6366\" data-end=\"6575\">Computer Concepts is an <strong data-start=\"6390\" data-end=\"6427\">Apple Authorized Service Provider<\/strong>, which means our Apple-trained technicians can perform eligible Mac repairs using <strong data-start=\"6510\" data-end=\"6574\">genuine Apple parts and Apple's authorized repair procedures<\/strong>.\u00a0That distinction matters when you're deciding who should work on your Mac.<\/p>\n<h2 data-section-id=\"1km93tt\" data-start=\"6658\" data-end=\"6725\">10. Should You Repair or Replace a MacBook With a Cracked Screen?<\/h2>\n<p data-start=\"6727\" data-end=\"6776\">This is where the decision becomes more personal.\u00a0A cracked screen doesn't automatically make the MacBook worthless.\u00a0Before replacing the entire computer, consider:<\/p>\n<p data-section-id=\"1xxfcf9\" data-start=\"6895\" data-end=\"6902\"><strong>Age -\u00a0<\/strong>How old is the MacBook?<br \/>\n<strong>Performance -<\/strong>\u00a0Does it still comfortably handle everything you need it to do?<br \/>\n<strong>Overall Condition -<\/strong>\u00a0Is the screen the only major problem, or does the computer also need a battery, keyboard, or other repairs?<br \/>\n<strong>Software Support -<\/strong>\u00a0Can the Mac still run the operating system and applications you need?<br \/>\n<strong>Repair Cost -<\/strong>\u00a0How does the repair price compare with replacing the computer?<br \/>\n<strong>AppleCare+ Coverage -<\/strong>\u00a0Your coverage can dramatically change the repair decision.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"7401\" data-end=\"7498\">A newer MacBook in excellent condition with a damaged display may be an obvious repair candidate.\u00a0An older Mac with multiple issues may require a little more consideration.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"7576\" data-end=\"7624\"><strong data-start=\"7576\" data-end=\"7624\">Get the facts before replacing the computer.<\/strong><\/p>\n<h2 data-section-id=\"1jo4tia\" data-start=\"7631\" data-end=\"7686\">What If My MacBook Screen Is Black but Isn't Cracked?<\/h2>\n<p data-start=\"7688\" data-end=\"7761\">A black screen doesn't automatically mean you need a display replacement.\u00a0Possible causes can include:<\/p>\n<ul data-start=\"7793\" data-end=\"7955\">\n<li data-section-id=\"q3rw5u\" data-start=\"7793\" data-end=\"7810\">Display failure<\/li>\n<li data-section-id=\"75i9l1\" data-start=\"7811\" data-end=\"7831\">Backlight

damage<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p data-start=\"7957\" data-end=\"7988\">This is why diagnostics matter.\u00a0If your screen suddenly went black without any known physical damage, don't automatically order a screen.\u00a0<strong data-start=\"8097\" data-end=\"8128\">Diagnose the problem first.<\/strong><\/p>\n<h2 data-section-id=\"tmq0u6\" data-start=\"8135\" data-end=\"8169\">What If the MacBook Was Dropped?<\/h2>\n<p data-start=\"8171\" data-end=\"8211\">A drop can damage more than the display.\u00a0Before repairing the screen, inspect the MacBook for:<\/p>\n<ul data-start=\"8268\" data-end=\"8435\">\n<li data-section-id=\"11cpy3z\" data-start=\"8268\" data-end=\"8284\">Bent enclosure<\/li>\n<li data-section-id=\"1sga81l\" data-start=\"8285\" data-end=\"8301\">Damaged

impact<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p data-start=\"8437\" data-end=\"8510\">If the frame or enclosure is damaged, that may affect the repair options.\u00a0Tell your technician exactly what happened.\u00a0It helps.<\/p>\n<h2 data-section-id=\"14p2is0\" data-start=\"8573\" data-end=\"8603\">What If Liquid Was Involved?<\/h2>\n<p data-start=\"8605\" data-end=\"8673\">A cracked display combined with liquid damage changes the situation.\u00a0If liquid entered the MacBook, the screen may not be the only problem.\u00a0Liquid can affect:<\/p>\n<ul data-start=\"8767\" data-end=\"8883\">\n<li data-section-id=\"cu05uk\" data-start=\"8767\" data-end=\"8780\">Logic board<\/li>\n<li data-section-id=\"vh429x\" data-start=\"8781\" data-end=\"8790\">Battery<\/li>\n<li data-section-id=\"q6m4yt\"

data-end=\"8883\">Other internal components<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p data-start=\"8885\" data-end=\"8984\">If your MacBook suffered liquid damage, avoid repeatedly powering it on to \"see if it still works.\"\u00a0Have it evaluated.<\/p>\n<h2 data-section-id=\"a63mve\" data-start=\"9011\" data-end=\"9064\">Will I Lose My Data During a MacBook Screen Repair?<\/h2>\n<p data-start=\"9066\" data-end=\"9132\">A damaged display doesn't necessarily mean your files are damaged.\u00a0However, <strong data-start=\"9143\" data-end=\"9214\">every computer should be backed up before service whenever possible<\/strong>.\u00a0Your MacBook contains things that may be impossible to replace:<\/p>\n<ul data-start=\"9282\" data-end=\"9396\">\n<li data-section-id=\"ujpjlt\" data-start=\"9282\"

An accurate quote requires identifying the exact MacBook and its coverage.<\/p>\n<h3 data-section-id=\"16ft8i5\" data-start=\"11897\" data-end=\"11948\">Does AppleCare+ cover a cracked MacBook screen?<\/h3>\n<p data-start=\"11950\" data-end=\"12081\">Accidental display damage may be eligible for AppleCare+ service subject to the terms and applicable service fees of your coverage.<\/p>\n<h3 data-section-id=\"11liv6c\" data-start=\"12083\" data-end=\"12155\">Can a MacBook screen crack without the outside glass looking broken?<\/h3>\n<p data-start=\"12157\" data-end=\"12346\">Yes. The internal display panel can be damaged even when the exterior doesn't show an obvious crack. Black areas, colored lines, or distorted images can be signs of internal display damage.<\/p>\n<h3 data-section-id=\"1ioi5bv\" data-start=\"12348\" data-end=\"12395\">Can I use my MacBook with a cracked screen?<\/h3>\n<p data-start=\"12397\" data-end=\"12557\">Possibly, depending on the extent of the damage. However, damaged displays can worsen, so backing up important data and having the Mac inspected is a good idea.<\/p>\n<h3 data-section-id=\"aaeg22\" data-start=\"12559\" data-end=\"12635\">Can I connect my MacBook to an external monitor if the screen is broken?<\/h3>\n<p data-start=\"12637\" data-end=\"12795\">In many cases, yes, provided the Mac itself is functioning and supports the external display setup. This can be useful for accessing and backing up your data.<\/p>\n<h3 data-section-id=\"1cpr7xj\" data-start=\"12797\" data-end=\"12848\">Is it worth repairing a cracked MacBook screen?<\/h3>\n<p data-start=\"12850\" data-end=\"13019\">It depends on the MacBook's age, condition, performance, repair cost, and AppleCare+ coverage. A newer Mac in otherwise good condition can often be well worth repairing.<\/p>\n<h3 data-section-id=\"4uspjx\" data-start=\"13021\" data-end=\"13085\">Do I have to go to an Apple Store for MacBook screen repair?<\/h3>\n<p data-start=\"13087\" data-end=\"13259\">No. <strong data-start=\"13091\" data-end=\"13164\">Apple Authorized Service Providers can perform eligible Apple repairs<\/strong>, allowing customers to receive authorized service without necessarily visiting an Apple Store.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It only takes a second.\u00a0Your MacBook slips off the couch.
