I bought a 27" model in late December with the issue. I returned it to the Apple Store in Seattle and requested a replaecement, but also requested to test it in the store before hauling the beast home. iMac no. 2 was also afflicted. They pulled a third one from the stock room; same issue. All three were also different production batches (week 42, 45 and 49 machines). I requested a full refund, which was granted. I'm now waiting until the next iMac revision (presumably next fall) before giving the iMac another chance.

Just exchanged my 27" iMac quadcore for a new one today due to the yellow screen syndrome. I'd bought it last week at the NYC 5th ave store. Apple customer support was great and I also got to open and boot my new one in the store. It's a more recent production model than the last one. Much better. My eyes are very sensitive to such things so for me, nothings perfect; but I'm happy I replaced it. One thing I can say for Apple, the customer service is unbeatable. I've had similar problems with monitors on PCs I've owned before and I've never been satisfied with the customer service response. Apple gets and A!

I just ordered this model a few weeks ago as a second monitor to for my existing one, same model, and I noticed a yellowish tint. Didn't know this was an existing known issue. Am not at home so I can't look up the manufacturer date. What areas shold I take?

March 20, 2014 Sorry. I can't help you with Apple. I had the computer for along time and was not able to operate it effectively. I returned to my old computer. Sorry.Don.......................

Apple system profile.However, I have the latest and it's still pretty unreliable. :(That said, it's impossible to say it's the adaptor for sure. Maybe it's my monitor. :)I hope yours is more reliable than mine!

Hi K. Wedderburn! Maureen here from The Friendly Swede:-) You should have no troubles with prints on the screen, never heard of it happening actually! Also these skins/keyboard covers are made specifically for Macbook 13" Unibody / Macbook Pro 13" 15" 17" / Macbook Pro 15 With Retina Display** / (please note the Macbook Pro 15 with Retina Display IS the LATE 2013 release version), so you should have a match! If there's anything else, just let me know. I can be contacted directly via this link:

Yes, mine discolored pretty badly. It looks dark grey now instead of clear. I've bought two so far, but I don't think I'll buy a third - going to try something different.

There might be something wrong with the monitor, on mine, I have two of them. I see the post on the main monitor using the HDMI cable and when I switch the cable to the other second monitor I see the post happen there also. These monitors, I don't really have a lot good to say about them. I have not had one last more than 6 months. You SHOULD be able to see the post, even when the monitor is in sleep mode it should wake up fast enough to get that initial screen. Both of my monitors do.

it certainly doesnt have the same quality as ones such as Retina Displays or the new galaxies but its damn close. make sure you set the settings on both the monitor and the computer display or else the monitor would continuously try to adjust color because it the settings aren't set right.

hello, I just tested these on two of my txtbks. I have pics if you want to see.... I have a "heavy hand" when highlighting, I tend to pause at the end of the hightlight~ with the green this will leave a tiny, darker dot. Yellow, does not do this. No bleed thru, have not had any probs since purchasing. VERY bright, too.

I also have a Mac and had the same issue. Call the company and they will walk you though the installation process. It was quick and easy!

Yes, it shows smudges on the back. Yes, now that you mention it.. it does yellow a bit.

Yeah, that fixed it! Thanks! Had to go to AMD to download their Catalyst something. Then I had to get rid of that and find the one specific for Mac. Changed the overscan to 0% and no more black border. Thanks again burntham. Now I get to add another thing to my "why I hate Windows" list.

Amazon now shows only 16 Imacs available and it says "order soon". Usually when they are running low and expect to get more it says "more on the way" after "order soon". I wonder if this is a sign that Apple is putting out a refresh soon?

I'm not sure what you are seeing, but the neither the machine or the screen are yellow. I've been using for about 4 months now with no problems

When I first turned mine on, I had a lighter 'frame' about 1" around the edge of the display that was visible on a black or dark screen. It eventually went away, but now there's a little bit more concentration of light along the left bottom edge but only slightly noticeable. I've seen the same kind of 'stage lights' effect with a retina iPad, so it's probably normal.

My son and I both have the same case. He says his is turning yellow. Mine so far has not. He also said the opening for the camera is causing white glare problems when using the flash. He has an Iphone 5S and mine is a 5. Not sure about warranty covering yellowing. But I will be very disappointed if it yellows.
