Chosen Solution Dear Everyone, I am wondering whether or not I should buy the 13" MacBook Pro 2017, without the touchbar. One of my questions in this regard is whether the SSD in the MacBook is repairable after purchase. I tried to ask Apple, but they gave me different answers. Thank you in advance. The 13" with function keys does have a removable SSD. But! It’s a custom part so it will only be available from Apple....
Chosen Solution A few months ago, I was using the iMac and opened up spotlight search and there was my first ever kernel panic. It restarted then I logged back in and everything works fine. (The report is at the end) After a month, I had 2 QuickTime player windows open, a Final Cut Pro window, a Chrome tab with only 8GB RAM. A kernel panic happened and I was able to log back in and opened up chrome and started watching a YouTube video, after a minute or so, another kernel panic happened and another one after reaching the login screen....
Chosen Solution Hello, My computer received a coffee bath and wouldn’t turn on without the power cord connected, so I sent it in to a repair shop in CA to get the logic board repaired. Once they finished repairing the logic board, they told me the trackpad also needed to be replaced. I found this odd because I seem to recall it working when I had sent it in. There is a bit of corrosion on the trackpad PCB by the battery, but it seems to mainly be around the connector for the cable that leads back to the motherboard....

Chosen Solution This is an updated from this question: Buy new Fusion drive I’ve bought the Firecuda 1TB SSHD and cloned the Fusion Drive. When I install the SSHD the mac won’t start. It start to load the OS, but suddently shuts down (power off) Is there any special procedure when replaceing the fusion drive with the firecuda? Well you can’t clone a Fusion Drive. The best you can do if first break the fusion set so each drive is then visible (the discreet SSD & HDD)....
Chosen Solution Hi all, i own a 2016 MacBook and the system itself is going good. However the screen is showing some wear and the keyboard is starting to melt (to be expected). i found a MacBook 2017 for parts (motherboard failure). how feasible would a full transplant be? Moving the 2016 motherboard to the 2017 body (keeping the 2017 battery) let me know what you think, thanks! Honestly, this is probably fine....
Chosen Solution Hi, I got a MacBook Pro 13" (late 2016). Very recently, I started to see a black horizontal line on the top most part of the screen after using it for a while. See the picture shown below. It goes away if I close the lid for 1-2 hours. I tried resetting NVRAM, PRAM, and SMC but it didn’t help. To check whether it’s problem of graphics or the display, I took a screenshot of the display....
Chosen Solution I have a MacBook Pro 15” Touch Bar late 2016, and it needed a battery. Just received the battery today, and thought before i power it on, i should make sure there was no damage to the board itself. I found what looks to be a couple tiny little rectangles that have broken off. This is the only damage to the board. My question is, is it a bad idea to try and power on this MacBook, or should i get these repaired first?...

Chosen Solution So, I’ve got a customer and they’re proposed this: “When calling, it’s as if the microphone isn’t connecting because no one can hear me. They can hear me fine if I put it onto loud speaker though”. Just wondered if there were any ideas on the issue and what needs replacing? Wasn’t sure if it were top microphone, bottom microphone or a speaker. Thanks. You need to test it because what the customer says may not necessarily be exactly what they mean....
Chosen Solution Hi. I hope someone can help. My iMac freezes constantly, and will only ever get through one or two operations before it freezes. ‘Operation’ meaning clicking to view something or go to a next step; to see system information, log into the App store, open a utility, open a new tab in Safari … literally anything will break it. I then have to power down and restart it to get to a next step....
Chosen Solution This happens as soon as I power it up. Vertical lines and 1 white line across the top. What’s wrong with it and is it worth fixing? Looks like the screen to me, but you can plug your Mac to an external source like a screen or a Tv to get confirmation, if you get a fine image then it’s not a GPU issue for sure.
Chosen Solution Face cracked, can itbefixed Unfortunately, a screen replacement is very difficult because the screen is stuck on the device. You can probably send it in for a repair but is most likely going to be very expensive due to its repair process.
Chosen Solution Yes, I already know that replacing the home button will render touch ID and return to home inoperable, but I dont have the money to get it repaired at the apple store. I’ve seen videos of people rewiring a torn cable, but the cable didnt look visibly damaged to the naked eye. I’ll have to go buy a good magnifying glass and get a better look though. There is however a rubber or foam boot around the socket that seems to be a bit damaged, but I hardly see how that could be causing it....

Chosen Solution JAguar XJ8 has an airbag warning light lit. How can I fix this. 1997 model V8. The problem was in the driver’s airbag. Replaced with used item. Thank you for the suggestion. @alexandercat the best way would be to have the OBD scanned. There are just to many possibilities like a bad connector (like the XJ6 series had) to a bad clockspring in your steering wheel to a blown SRS fuse, etc....
Chosen Solution the button lights come on but pressing them gets nothing. happened at once and has not worked since. @whydothis try something from here A basic reset resolves many common issues experienced with Keurig brewers. To perform a basic reset: Turn the machine off, if possible, and unplug it for several minutes. Plug the machine back in and try a brew cycle again. If simply unplugging your brewer doesn’t work: Remove the water reservoir before powering the machine off and unplugging....
Chosen Solution Hi there, my T key on my Macbook Pro has fallen off. The key looks 100% in tact: the two top clips don’t seem damaged, and the two bottom hooks don’t seem damaged. However when I try and put it back into place, I can’t get it to “click” in. Has the butterfly mechanism broken? It’d be great if I can try fix this myself as it’s currently lockdown in the UK so can’t get to an Apple store - I also fear it’s an expensive fix otherwise....
