Chosen Solution I had a different MacBook Pro 13” 2.9 Ghz 2012 come in yesterday with an original Apple hard drive. It had an APP Store update to do so I did it and lost the ability to access the internet. 10.13.5 NETWORK SETTINGS SAYS IT IS CONNECTED. BUT NO GO.

Chosen Solution Inland wireless keyboard and mouse combo from micro center. My model is JW9851 and mouse is YES. Can’t find a place to get a new dongle, any ideas? They are nothing special. It is just a Bluetooth dongle. Bluetooth® technology uses the 2.4 GHz ISM spectrum band (2400 to 2483.5 MHz), which enables a good balance between range and throughput. Any computer shop will have USB port Bluetooth® dongles....
Chosen Solution My M53i- B2 television has started getting dark (not so dark you can’t see the picture) then light again. It usually stays darker for 30 to 90 seconds. I have tried the the reset bit doesn’t help. The set is about 5 years old. I would like to find out what I need to do to fix it before the picture goes out. Check in the settings for something called ambient light sensor or something along those lines, disable it if you can and let me know, maybe a bad sensor?...
Chosen Solution Since I play games such as the Sims 4 on my Mac, it will sometimes overheat (I usually play it with my computer on the table but sometimes in my lap) and around the top left area of my keyboard will get pretty hot. The fans usually go off and it’s fine, but is this an issue? Should I play the game less for my laptop’s sake? What should I do?...

Chosen Solution Hi, I have been repairing some iPods lately and iPhones, something that is really bugging me is that fact that everytime I finish the job and put everything back together there is a smudge of some sought or a tiny bit of dust or hair.

Chosen Solution hey I got an iphone 7 plus with broken back camera, I tested it and the back camera and front did not work. I replaced the back camera and non of the cameras work still.. Is it because the front camera is destroyed aswell? I suspect that this is a logic board issue, specifically a power issue. Either the PMIC is not outputting the proper voltages for the cameras or there is an issue with the associated circuitry (filters) or downstream Boost converters for Utah/Nevada....
Chosen Solution Within 10 minutes of me using my laptop, the fan comes on. It’s not very loud, but I can definitely hear it. The fan doesn’t shut off until I have closed the lid to my laptop. I appreciate your thoughts! Being usually a quiet machine, although it’s normal the fans get started after some usage I see here several options: You use your macbook for fairly demanding tasksYou are a person very sensitive to noise and use it mainly in silent environmentSome undesired task is started up using consistently a high percentage of your processor....
Chosen Solution I have a single core 2003 1.8Ghz PowerMac G5 with 2.5 GB RAM. I also have 4 monitors and I’d like to hook them all up together. I have found adapters (like Matrox TripleHead2Go) but they only let you add 3 monitors. I’d like to use all 4 of mine.

Chosen Solution I want to buy the motherboard and processors offered in the mid-2010 model and put them in my 2008 model. I’m aware that the 2008 has a different processor cage than that of the 2010. To do the upgrade, is it just as simple as buying a 2010 processor cage/tray and put them in the 2008? If not what else? Thank you. I don’t believe it’s possible, as the case for each model is slightly different....
Chosen Solution I do a lot of music production on my laptop, and I foolishly bought it with 8gb of RAM thinking i could upgrade in the future. The RAM is soldered into my model. Is it possible to buy a newer logic board to just upgrade my system entirely? While you can swap out your logic board you are limited to what the series had for options: Intergraded Graphics - MacBookPro11,2 This group came with 8 GB or 16 GB Dedicated GPU - MacBookPro11,3 This group only comes with 16 GB While harder you can install DG logic board into a IG system....

Chosen Solution Hi, I have been out of the iPhone repair game for a while, so I had to look up on how to fix the new versions. People say that the Touch ID will never work, if it is damaged during repair. But some people say that Apple fixed the “Error 53” - or is it two different things? Someone who is repairing iPhone 6, please answer this question: If the Touch ID is damaged during repair, are you doomed?...

Chosen Solution Hi — I’m experiencing kernel panics every single time my 2012 MacBook Pro wakes from sleep. Running El Capitan 10.11.3. I’ve contacted Apple about this at least 3 dozen times over the last 2.5 years, and the best I’ve ever achieved is a stay of execution for about a week — then it’s back to the same. Have tried everything you can think of and that I’ve read in posts like this, no change....
