Hey everyone. I have a Macbook Pro 15'', purchased in late 2010, and I have two problems.
First, the screen has a yellow tinge, but it's different from other "yellow tinge" problems I've read about. Just about every area of the screen that's supposed to be white appears yellow. This started occurring a month or two after I got the computer. I have searched around various websites and only found one other person with the exact same issue. That thread suggested there is a problem with the wiring that links the monitor with the rest of the computer.
Second, most of the time- but not all of the time- when I try to stream Netflix on my computer, (the browser I use is Safari) after a few seconds the computer crashes. The sound keeps going, but the screen freezes and I see a colorful, diagonal crisscrossing pattern across the screen. The only way to fix it is a hard reboot. I'm pretty certain that the problem here is with Silverlight- I've had the computer crash the same way a few times when using other apps, including garageband.
Sorry that this post was a little long. If anyone can relate to either of these problems, I would very much appreciate your feedback. Thanks for reading.
