Chosen Solution I was wondering if it was possible to build your macbook pro. If it is, what are all the parts i would need? Unlike Windows and Linux, Mac Os is not readily available to the public as the others are. As Apple does not license out Mac OS to any other hardware manufacturer, while it is possible to build such a machine, it would be an infringement on Apple as you would be using their proprietary operating system Illegally in a machine that has not been authorized by Apple Inc....

Chosen Solution The Genius Bar says that I have to replace my phone, because after replacing an unresponsive display, it still won’t work. I have a bunch of important stuff on there from the past week since it was backed up (graduation pictures, etc). It connects to iTunes, but I can’t unlock the phone. Is there a way to unlock my phone remotely or to recover what is on it?...

Chosen Solution So before this happened my ps4 had started flickering while I was playing so the screen would tear and also the audio would mess up. I travelled for a week and when I came back it would not even start as can be seen in the video: Video Showing whats happening It’s very unlikely that it’s the power supply. I’d give it a 98% chance that it’s an APU problem....

Chosen Solution I opened my MacBook Pro to swap the hard drive and noted the battery appears swollen. Is it safe to run like this? This computer is already plagued by the GPU failure so if the battery is now bad also, it’s probably time to recycle it. Once the pressure of the bottom cover has been removed the battery may expand rapidly and become much more dangerous and difficult to remove, therefore DO IT NOW....

Chosen Solution I have a ‘92 Wrangler YJ, 2.5l 4cyl.. I just bought a new starter recently because of the same thing.. It left me stranded at the park but all of my lights and everything else worked. I just had oil in my starter but I fixed the leak. This time, it blew a 50 amp alt pwr.2 fuse and also the 10amp I.O.D fuse as well.. I replaced them, and now nothing comes on, not my lights or even my guages....

Chosen Solution compaq persario cq57 laptop display messed up because an external mouse hit it i need the key code to switch to an external monitor djhlady “fn+f4 Switches the screen image among display devices connected to the system. For example, if a monitor is connected to the computer, fn+f4 alternates the screen image from computer display to monitor display to simultaneous display on both the computer and the monitor. Most external monitors receive video information from the computer using the external VGA video standard....

Chosen Solution All hot taps in house run water but bathroom sink tap only runs for a few seconds then totally shuts off whilst still turned on fully Hi @theends , Try the following and see if it clears any possible obstruction in the pipe feeding the tap. (be prepared for water to come out under pressure) Having two people to perform the test is advisable, one standing by to turn off the main taps ;-) Shutoff the main hot water tap for the house (usually near the hot water service) and the main cold water tap to the house....

Chosen Solution I bought a Lenovo Yoga Tab 2 1050 (Android) about 2 months back. It worked quite well and I even updated it to latest version of Android( 5.0.1 I guess,its Lollipop but I don’t quite remember the exact version). About two days back I “Shut down” the tablet and since then its not turning on,shown on PC or even charging. I even tried to go to recovery mode by pressing “volume button and power button” but nothing happens....

Chosen Solution I have a workstation HP Z1 all-in-one with the backlight working partially, in the overall is good but on the left is dimmer. I found online the option to replace the screen but the exact model is impossible to find without moving with hp spare part which is extremely expensive, considering I have taken a refurnished model. The screen is LG lm270wq1 (SD) (BD) and I found a lot of different end code (A1) (B1) (E3), so I want be sure to find the best and cheap way to restore the backlight, are those model compatible?...

Chosen Solution I have an Lg42lw550t, when i plug the tv into the mains the red standby light comes on the tv and then goes off,,,,Then When i switch the tv on it clicks and the red standby light comes on but then turns to white which will flash once and stay on, but nothing happens just the white light on the standby stays on, no picture or sound. @lee05 … being that the standby light comes on and then shows white after power up indicates there is at least some power supply and main board functionality....

Chosen Solution I need a screw for the iPad 4 logic/ motherboard. Where can I find one or possibly all? Try a search on eBay for a full set of screws for iPad 4th generation, you’ll get results such this one and that one.

Chosen Solution I lost one of the 4 screws that holds down the digitizer display, can buy those anywhere? These are pretty easy to source, take a look here for multiple sellers. Most parts vendors should sell them too but iFixit does not.

Where is the speaker relays located and where can i buy parts or where i can buy the boards? kelly, I tried to find a particular relay on the circuit board layout etc., but can not find what you might be looking for. I would take a closer look at the power amp IC and Caps. Anyway, here is the Service Manual with all the schematics and board layout....

Chosen Solution Hey there. I recently bought a used MacBook Pro 15” 2010. When I got it the battery was a little “exploded" so I had to take it out. It acts kinda strange, when I plug in the MagSafe charger the charger LED won’t turn on for some reason. But, if I hold the power button for 10 seconds and then plug in the charger (while still holding the button) for about 5 seconds, it turns on and boots up to High Sierra....

Chosen Solution I am trying to change my internal hard drive to a 1TB SATA SSHD. I have tried to install a new os on the drive and boot up external connected to the machine and it works. However if I take the 1TB drive and then insert into the machine and try boot up, i get a flashing folder with the question mark on it. If your model is the Mid 2012 13" MacBook Pro with built-in DVD aka MD101, you should know that they burn through SATA-HDD cable like crazy....

Chosen Solution I don’t understand what it means by cloud storage. I deleted lots of photos and apps that I don’t use. didn’t seem to make a difference. message still pops up. Hi, Are you on Verizon? Because if so, you might unknowingly be using their cloud storage instead of the physical storage on your phone and filling it up. Try going into your settings and selecting “storage” to see how full the physical phone is....

Chosen Solution So my Iphone 7 plus got wet in my tent and I stupidly plugged the charger in and it went black and hasn’t turned on since. It has been in rice for a day and today I tried to turn it on and it’s still black but if I hold it up to my ear I can hear a quiet buzzing sound. I was wondering what this was and if it means its fixable?...

Chosen Solution I have checked in an iPhone 7 that seems to have spontaneously gotten extremely hot and then gone dead. As soon as I plug it into my dcps and turn the power supply on it pulls max amperage immediately without being prompted to boot. I immediately checked vdd main and vdd boost for shorts and the diode mode readings seem to be good, checking from a couple different points on the board....

Chosen Solution Hello, I have an iPhone 7 after a fall, which has a short of 0.13ma when connected to the bench power supply. When prompted to boot, the current temporarily raises to 0.24, but then falls back to 0.13. Nothing overheatS except PMIC and SDRAM/CPU. PPV1SDRAM line has a diode reading of 0.170ma. Am a right in thinking that it is most likely a SDRAM problem? Do I need to replace it?...
