Chosen Solution I upgraded my Mac Mini a while ago to support two 1 TB drives (IF171-005-2), and I am now running out of space again. I have two spare 9.5mm thick 2 TB drives, I could use, but that doesn’t increase the capacity much. However, Seagate is currently manufacturing 3, 4, and 5 TB drives, but at a 15mm thickness. What is the drive thickness limit for this Mac Mini?...
Chosen Solution A while back when I bought and replaced my battery, I accidentally broke the top flex cable. I decided to buy a replacement later on, and proceeded to put my phone back together. The selfie camera, top speaker, and ambience sensor didn’t work of course since the flex cable broke. But after a while, my microphone stopped working as well. I replaced the flex cable today. All of the original problems regarding the cable are fixed....

Chosen Solution I have iPhone 8 Plus with broken screen. Have changed it to eTradeSupply screen, after one day the screen gone crazy - there is no touches at times, ghost touches at times, sometime all is good. Original broken (glass) screen was working good. I have tried hard reset and etc. Obvious advice everywhere is to change screen to another one, however there is a little twist -> the screen is perfectly working with out any problems if you open the phone (so the screen part is not closed/connected with the rest of the phone), looks like the flex cable might be a problem (bending?...
Chosen Solution I´m struggling with my Iphone 4S after my kid spilled some water on it. It was not much and there was no traces of water anywhere when i opened it. After a day it started turning off and/or restarting by itself. Changed the battery but same issue. Changed the logic board but still the same issue. Found out after a while that it does not shut off as long as it is in use but when it goes into standby and the screen goes black it restarts or shuts off after a few minutes....
Chosen Solution There’s a gap at the top of the phone. I’m almost positive I think I put the earpiece speaker together correctly, but I’m not sure. Any idea what I’m doing wrong? It looks like it wasn’t clipped in correctly at the top. When re-assembling, you have to slide the clips in and then proceed to clip the rest of the screen in place towards the bottom of the screen....
Chosen Solution I realize that this is not a really relevant topic for most people on ifixit. But recently i came into some trouble (Popped off the battery connection from the logic board… fix?) with my Macbook pro 15inch touch bar 2017( model :a1707) that I need to buy a new logic board. Is this possible? If so where? You might do best by contacting Apple and see if they will do a “Flat Rate repair”....
Chosen Solution Just bought late 2011 model The issue is pushing the system beyond what it was designed to do. Let’s go back in time when this system was designed end of 2009/early 2010. The best games at the time where still using ASCI code color blocks and shapes! Yes, the Stones and Clubs of caveman times! Within less than two years graphics jumped to the 1950’s the start of the car revolution!...
Chosen Solution I was replacing my digitizer and accidentally ripped the ribbon wire to the bottom part of the digitizer. Is there anything I can do to make this digitizer useful again, or is it trash? Philip Bremer, there is no good way to repair a ribbon cable. You will have to replace the complete digitizer. Hope this helps, good luck.
Chosen Solution I have been using this router for several years with no issues. Apple AirPort Extreme Base Station AC. A couple of days ago it starting giving a keyboard beep when trying to enter the fourth character of the password. Password has not changed. This happened on both a 2016 MBP and 2009 iMac.

Chosen Solution I got a Late 2011 Macbook Pro from a friend and there are a lot of cosmetic issues with the chassis. The glass is cracked, the lcd has come loose from the top lid, and there are a lot of dents and scratches.

Chosen Solution I upgraded RAM and SSD of a 2017 iMac 21.5”, everything went good. I was at the last step where you have the adhesive strips ready to be pulled off and you actually plug the LCD connectors to see if everything works before removing the outer part of the adhesive and then sealing it. Boot was good I could see the factory reset screen, and then.. something bad happened....

Chosen Solution I’ve heard it is not available yet. Maybe you know if I can buy it when it comes available. Chinese manufacturers make visually pretty accurate replicas of iPhones housings and often they supply the same with inner parts ready to add just logic board, battery and screen. You’ll find them with little effort in places such as eBay, etc where you might find some used original parts also in good conditions....
Chosen Solution What can I do, other then keep the heatsinks clean and monitor Fan speeds, to keep my system’s thermals down? Dabbling a bit into games(Torchlight, CnC3, Eve) and 3D modeling, the CPU tips almost 100 degrees C and the GPU(G86) hits 80 with ease. I’ve cleaned out that mess Apple calls Thermal grease and used compressed air to clear out the heatsinks, but it seems to help only for a day or two, and a degree or so… Edit Dec....
