Chosen Solution Anyone know how to fix this and yes, caps is off but still types in caps. I went to system preferences and it looks right. any suggestions ²naythan it would always be a great idea to start a new question for that matter. anyhow - first of all - use your setup disk to remove the password (use this guide (click)) after the system restarted, try to kill the caps lock function, i only guessed this - but maybe the mac “thinks” he had received the caps lock code from the keyboard (keyboards are working with codes) use this guide (click) to try it...

Chosen Solution I recently moved from Norway to Thailand. I’ve charged my MacBook Air one time in Thailand, and after a couple of hours use of battery it suddenly wouldn’t start up. One of the four pins on the MagSafe has turned black, maybe a sign of uneven voltage and bad grounding here in Thailand? I’ve searched the internet for tips and solutions, but nothing has yet worked. I’ve also opened the back panel and reconnected the battery, but still no sign of life....

Chosen Solution Hi My 2017 MBP has been developing a display fault resulting in a large black bar across the screen. This device was purchased refurbished at the start of 2018, and thus the 1 yr ltd warrenty is no longer active, but my statutory rights still stand (EU). From some research here and elsewhere it seems to be common, but not common enough to warrant a recall program. The device is currently with an AASP, and according to them the GPU or another display component has been fried due to inadequate cooling....

Chosen Solution Hello, Can a Unibody 2009 MacBook HDD (Model A1342) be upgraded to a Samsung 860 Evo SSD? Thank you. Sure! Here’s the IFIXIT guide: MacBook Unibody Model A1342 Hard Drive Replacement. Do keep in mind the highest Mac OS supported is 10.13.x High Sierra. Frankly I don’t recommend using anything higher than 10.12.x Sierra on SATA based systems like yours. High Sierra alters the drives format from HFS+ to APFS on SSD drive’d systems which has its issues....

Chosen Solution This phone is not too old. Bought it 6 months ago or so. Phones been wet once back when its new. But it was just a bit on the screen. I dropped it in snow. The port was covered too. Now after installing a update (Phone was plugged in while updating) that Samsung forces on you it immediately came saying the port was wet and refused to let phone charge....

Chosen Solution I did a iphone 7 plus screen replacement today & for some reason the phone starts to malfunction everytime I have the Front Camera + Prox Sensor ribbon cable attached. When attached the phone lags, the home button does not work - it shows the accessibilty icon to use as a home button, and the phone acts very weird. At first I thought it was the replacement screen but I replaced all the part on the original screen that was cracked & I am getting the same issues....

Chosen Solution When I try to boot my iPhone it just shows the apple logo for a couple seconds and then turns back off. I’ve downloaded iOS 11 previously and because of it’s many bugs and stuff I wanted to go back to 10.3.2. As I tried to do it I first went to recevory mode and then choose the right IPSW etc. When it was installing iOS 10.3.2 iTunes randomly said something went wrong and now I can’t turn on my phone....

Chosen Solution Hey Guys, i just repair my Iphone 8 Frontdisplay and replaced it with a display from IFixit. Unfortunately, the new display has less brightness and the color seems to be darker and less saturated. Is this a common Issue with a new Display and can I anything do? Greetz Jan You have no True Tone. When you replace the screen the data from the original needs to be copied and programmed onto the new screen....

Chosen Solution I have had my iphone 6 since february, no problems. Recently, I did drop it and break the screen(it was fine though, I could still see everything fine). My mom replaced the screen a week ago and everything worked perfectly fine, until about 3 days later. I went to plug in my phone a few nights ago and before I could even lock it, the screen went black (ps - the phone wasn’t dead, it had 40%)....

Chosen Solution does the 7th gen ipod touch use the same screen-digitizer as 6th gen ipod touch They might look the same and the same size but they are not the old regime what’s a 9.7 size screen in the newer gen has a 10.2 screen so they’re a little different little bigger than the old one they do that so if in your situation it breaks you can either buy a new one or a new screen for the same size so I would suggest to get a new 10....

Chosen Solution On the motherboard of my MacBook Air mid 2009 (A1304). Are these “pins” appear to be charred. It is normal? And what is it for? Thank you for your answer, Daniel. I have seen several computers with charred marks like that, but I wouldn’t be too worried. If you have taken care of your computer and have never had it overheat, you can just wipe the marks off with isopropyl alcohol....

Chosen Solution A friend has asked me to replace the screen and battery of her iPhone 7, but I’m worried about removing the Taptic Engine, as I’ve never done a battery in this model of phone before. Worst-case scenario, and I break the Taptic Engine, does the iFixit replacement function as the original would? Thanks for taking the time to read There is no need to remove the taptic engine to replace the battery on the 7 series if the adhesive strips under the battery pull out....

Chosen Solution When I make a dryer selection and punch start (or hold start for 2-3 seconds) it will not start. It beeps 3 times, and the time light begins to flash - but it doesn’t start the dryer cycle. appreciate any suggestions! most likely you have either a bad door switch or an open thermal fuse. the thermal fuse is located behind the toe kick panel. remove the toe kick by removing 3 screws (t20) at the bottom of toe kick....

Chosen Solution After replacing battery and booting my laptop, my login screen comes up, but most of my keyboard became unresonsive. There are some keys working, but not all. Trackpad works, keyboard backlight works, but the rest of the keyboard is unresponsive. Please help!

Chosen Solution Hi guys, I’ve recently changed the screen on my MacBook Pro mid 2012 and I’m stuck on the last bit. I can’t get the clip down on the LCD ribbon on the motherboard. The Ribbon will go into the port, but I can’t get the metal clip to go over the connector which holds it in place. I’ve pushed the connector into the port on the motherboard as far as it can possibly go....

Chosen Solution Here’s my issue: I bought a new screen for an ipad 5th gen, model 1822. I was SUPER careful, ESD safe tools used to remove flex connectors (the nylon spuder). The new screen I ordered came preinstalled with a home button (the other one was severed in the break). They attached the home button ON TOP of the clear plastic film on the back of the screen. I did my best, but when I removed the cable somehow I broke it....

Chosen Solution my screen will go off when i am using it What to do I would say replace the screen. Not just the LCD, but also the digitizer and other small parts as well. That should fix it.

Chosen Solution I have a Thermaltake Core V21 case, and my front audiojack just died. It has an isolation plastic between the jack plug and the “switch” which is just broke off and then the plug short the 3 connections and the socket is unusable. I find an another socket that look exactly the same (PJ-358), but the layout is different and it’s not working with my computer. Pictures and schematic: https://imgur....

Chosen Solution i have a MacBook Air 13" Late 2010 without the backlit. I was wondering is it possible for me to change the keyboard with backlit that used by MacBook Air 13" Mid 2011 onward. Because i find it very difficult to identify the key, especially my working environment lighting is very poor. Although the part numbers are different, for obvious reasons, the Keyboards look identical. Now, although the keyboard/connections look identical the problem can arise after installation due to the logic board and the logic boards firmware....
