Ok, so, after I posted about two weeks ago with my MBP failing to switch on, I took it to my local Apple store and had the logic board replaced and a new charger (thankfully it was still under Warranty) (Still only 11 months old).
However, now about a week after having it back the screen started flicking off to a completely black screen, Safari seems to be the only responsive application; Finder is intermittent, other apps such as iWorks won't even load up. I can only type onto text boxes within Safari. The Apple icon in the toolbar at the top does not work when I want to switch the MBP off, and when I push the on/off button and select 'shut down' this does not work, so I'm having it to hold the button down.
I have just renewed my Warranty, and expect to send it back to Apple.
However, just wondering if these sorts of problems can be fixed? Will I ever get it back to how it was pre-problems (Apple said that it will be repaired to this state, but after having already had it repaired once I'm a little skeptical).
Any thoughts appreciated.
Thanks.
