Chosen Solution I need to remove 2 switch Backplate screws and they are stripped, I tried the rubber band trick and nothing and I’m not too keen on using superglue, can anybody please help me? The best thing you can do in this situation is to purchase a small screw extractor kit and remove the screws that way. ive personally tried to superglue my cheap screwdrivers to the screw, but that doesn’t actually seem to work at all, at least for me....

Chosen Solution Purchased a Hisense 58r6e3 4k TV a few weeks back. Recently we have noticed a horizontal, flickering line about 2 inches from the top of the tv when watching certain content. It seems to only affect anything that is not in 4k quality… Andrew French horizontal lines are almost entirely caused by bad drivers on the panel itself. 4K or not it should not have any lines. Since this is a new TV I’d get it repaired/replaced under warranty....

Chosen Solution Hi my screen on the 2015 MacBook is requires quite a bit of effort, more than normal, to open and close. Do I need new hinges or can I just lubricate the ones that are on the MacBook, or is there another solution to the problem. Thanks So the issue with the hinges is that they are attached to the screen in a way that you can’t replace them without replacing the whole display assembly....

Chosen Solution I dropped my iPhone 6S Plus (A1634) and cracked the glass cover that sits on top of the rear camera. How is the rear lens cover attached to the frame?

Chosen Solution My MacBook Pro Unibody Mid-2012 is having really weird distorted colors. I tried programming the Mac to only use integrated graphics and that issue was still there. Although, when I connected that MacBook Pro to my desktop mac using “Screen Sharing” the display of the MacBook Pro looked perfectly fine on my desktop Mac. Also, some “ghosting” happens on the screen. This is making me think that maybe the display is at fault because if it were the GPU, those distorted colors would show up on the desktop Mac as well, right?...

Chosen Solution Evey game my daughter has does the same thing. I went onto leapfrog connect and did the whole repair it took 8 hours. Did absolutely nothing. My question is have any of you had this happen if so did you get it fixed? Try cleaning the cartridge contact point with Iso-propyl alcohol using earbuds/cotton. Said problem is caused due to dust particles getting stuck on contact points.

Chosen Solution Hi, I am thinking about using an extra layer of protection for my MacBook Air, setting a firmware password. However, If I forget it, I have no way of resetting it myself without going to an Apple store. My question is, is there a way to reset a firmware password without having to take my computer to an Apple store? I have also done a lot of research, and the best I could come up with was a youtube video showing how you can use an un-locker tool on a USB stick to reset the password, but it’s not free and I can’t afford to buy that kind of tool....

Chosen Solution Does anyone know whether there is a “brake” on the driven saw blade shaft of this model so you can unscrew the blade bolt? If not can you suggest how I can lock the shaft and remove the blade bolt?

Chosen Solution how to remove gas tank from 1994 ford ranger? Hey, Gene. To remove the gas tank you’re going to want to siphon all the old gas out first. This will make the tank lighter and much easier to handle. (If you’re just changing the fuel pump you may want to consider leaving the tank in; on my Ranger, I just removed the bed of the truck.) You need to disconnect the filler tube from the tank....
