Chosen Solution I am using an a1357 iPad 10W charger to charge my iPhone 11 because that’s the only Apple charger that I have that is more than 5W. I just wanted to ask if it could perhaps damage the battery overtime as the charger is pretty old and the phone is brand new. I know that using iPad chargers doesn’t damage an iPhone’s battery, but I’m asking because mine is quite older and Im pretty sure it came out before the lightning port...

Chosen Solution My MacBook is working slow and fans work maximum. What should be the problem? After I did D key. Ah! Then you’ve created the problem! SMC will reduce the CPU’s clocking and raise the fans RPM’s as it wants to protect your system from overheating! Which is what SMC is worried about. When you disconnect either its thermal or voltage sensors you triggered SMC into this state. The solution is fix the defect in the camera connector

Chosen Solution when play button is pressed down there is a high pitch sound, when the volume button is turned low it disappears and then when on high it is a high pitching noise. This is a common problem that is usually resolved by cleaning an internal multi-bank switch. The problem is a feedback loop that is caused by dirt/debris inside the switch which connects a couple of circuits that should be separated....

Chosen Solution I spilled a soda on my macbook pro. After the spill, it immediently turned off. After taking it to the repair store, my Mac works, only with the condition that the charger must be plugged in and connected with my mac. I’ve understood that the motherboard(?) may have been damaged and the battery is completely broken. What can I do to revive my mac? You could buy a new battery online, but it is probably a similar price to a new or very good condition used macbook....

Chosen Solution My headphone stopped working on the left side, and only works sometimes when the cable is flexed at the hinge, so I guess it would be ideal if I replaced the headband wire, but, how do I open the headband? It’s covered in a textile material that looks like a fabric. I’ve already opened up the cups, but I guess I’ll have to replace that wire (that contains 6 wires inside)....

Chosen Solution Ever since I got my Toshiba Satellite C55-C5241 it keeps overheating. I live in South Carolina and use it outside often so it overheats easily. However lately it has been heating up hotter and faster. Usually after an hour or two it gets too hot to hold or place on my lap so I shut it off. It has never gotten this hot before even after using it hours on end....

Chosen Solution Hi, I can’t find any guides on how to fix the headphone jack of my laptop. I thought my headphones were dying and I decided to buy a new pair, only to have the same issue with the brand new pair I bought today.

Hi, Here is a link to the service manual for your laptop. It details all the necessary pre-requisite steps and the procedures on how to dis-assemble the various sections of your laptop. On p.15-16 and 20-21 it shows an exploded view of all the parts with their part numbers....

Chosen Solution My glass broke on my iPhone 6s. I went to replace it myself and decided to take a break and thought I’d make sure I didn’t screw anything up and I did because the screen will not turn in so I must have busted the LCD. I figured that might happen but that I could still get power/access to hard drive. Now when I plug it into the computer it will vibrate three times....

Chosen Solution I have had my flex for about 19 months. I have maybe used it a total of 6 months off and on. Now, the tracker will not hold a charge at all. I called the company. They said that they do not currently repair devices and that they could not replace it because it is out of warranty (fair enough). They offered me 25% off of another device. However, before I fork over another $75-$150 I was hoping that there might be a way to salvage the one I already have....

Chosen Solution Hi, I’ve replaced the screen and the iSight cam of my iPhone 5 that seemed fine but it was stuck searching for network, I erased all content and settings but I then couldn’t activate the phone (still searching for network), so I thought I’d try a restore and try activating through iTunes, It is now stuck in restore mode and repeatedly giving me error 47, whatever the problem is wasn’t causing too much grief before I tried to restore it so messed up now, fails everytime installing the firmware and I’m clueless as to what the problem is !...
