There’s condensation in my iMac
Posted by Daniel on December 9, 2007

I never thought it’d ever happen to me, but it has. I always thought there were finger print smudges or something on my display, but today I noticed the “smudge” was pretty big and long. Then when I put up a black background, I knew immediately what it was. There’s condensation of water vapour in between my 20 inch iMac’s LCD display and the outer glossy casing. I can still do my work fine, it’s just annoying to have a tiny blur on your display. My “call in” service is over, so I have to visit an apple care centre to address this. Hope I don’t have to personally lug my 20 inch iMac to the care centre to get it sorted out. Anyone know a way to fix this myself?
DK: keep this in mind when you buy your iMac. You might wanna check with the sales rep if the issue’s been sorted out.

Hey there, is your iMac directly in the direction of aircon? It may be caused by the heat and the hot air trapped in between the gap of the screen.

Anyway, interestingly, it stopped condensing!
