Chosen Solution Now, before anyone says the graphics card is messed up, i did a test of putting a pre-installed Windows 10 drive into it and the mac booted into the desktop (after the software read the hardware and compensated) and it works “perfectly” in Windows. This was simply done to test the video card, the original OSX drive was put back in for further testing (added so others don’t get confused about what i’ve done) I know what i did is a little “off the wall” but i tend to try and cover all the bases....

Chosen Solution I bought my UE Wonderboom by Logitech 3 days ago and it does not charge. I’m traveling, therefore I can not go back to the store where I bought it from. I’m on an island so the warrenty isn’t much use for me and I think I threw away the bill. I saw this is a common problem with older UE’s and there’s many answers such as placing the speaker in the freezer for hours or pressing all 4 buttons at the same time for 20 seconds, but NONE of the “solutions” work....

Chosen Solution Is there a way to increase the size of my tablets icons? If you want to increase the size of the icons on your home page you need to get an app there is no adjustment in 4.1 that doesnt happen till lollipop5.1

Chosen Solution 1st, don’t demonize me as I have seen others demonized in other forums. I bought a Demo PS3 from Circuit City in Collierville, TN a few years back when they went out of business. I have the unlock codes to take it out of demonstration mode. However, the system is never truly out of demo mode. Several features are unavailable on this PS3. I can not access features like Netflix and other online resources....

Chosen Solution Hi, I did a Headphone Jack replacement on my macbook pro 15’ retina display mid 2012 laptop and on one of the last steps managed to break off one of the three gold circular heads of the antenna cables that attach to the Airport Board : S . The middle cable no longer has a gold head but the other two are plugged back in properly. I believe it is the Bluetooth antenna because it is no longer working properly (i....

Chosen Solution Unfortunately, I also suffered LCD screen failure of Surface Pro4 like the most of people. I don’t know how to called this issue but I believe you know. Now I’ve purchased a brand new LCD pannel from Chinese Taobao to replace its original pannel Samsung LTY123YL01-005 (AIDA64 shows -001 though). I’ve learned from forums and websites that Samsung’s screen for Pro4 has flaws and Microsoft switch it to Pro5’s LG LP123WQ1 at the last batch....

Chosen Solution I have a 2010 MacBook A1342 I thought i should upgrade with an SSD and RAM. I read on a different thread that the maximum RAM the 2010 MacBook could take is 16GB. So I ordered 2 sticks of 8GB DDR3 1066MHz PC3-8500 RAM and installed it, but it didn’t work at first. All i got was a 1 beep, which, after searching online, found out meant that no RAM was detected....

Chosen Solution The Surface is stuck between Windows 8 and 10 so needs factory reset running, but there is data on it which needs recovering first. Can you take out the hard drive (SSD) to recover the data, then put it back in and reset? It can be done but is very difficult and would not recommend doing it . Heres a teardown guild that may come in handy https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5ZJn2YCC…...

Chosen Solution I can only go to 2 different sights it says it has blocked traffic on the internet Try this: You have to get the captive portal page to display. Try these tricks first: Close all open tabs in your browser. If you have a secure site open ( https:// ), the portal can get confused. Close everything in your browser. If you have your startup setting “Continue where you left off”, then change it to “Open the new tab page” and open your browser again....

Chosen Solution I changed the keyboard in a MacBook Pro 15 inch Penyrn model, which works fine. The trackboard works fine. My problem is that when the top is opened it doesn’t recover from sleep mode. I don’t know what I could have done or not done to cause this. I didn’t change or replace any other component. Thanks. wes Check the picture for step 12 of the keyboard guide. The middle cable going to the left in this pic is for the sleep sensor....

Chosen Solution I just disassembled this phone to replace the charging port flex cable. I changed out the cable and now the phone will not power up. When I plug it in it shows that the battery is charging but that is all it will do. First try this trick/reset: Remove the battery. Plug in the charger (known good charger and cable). Leave the device plugged in for a minute without the battery installed....

Chosen Solution Cable charging port got loose . Hi Grace, Try cleaning the dust inside the charging port of your phone with a toothpick buffed with sandpaper or any other plastic tip (I do not recommend using metal objects). If it doesn’t work try another charger or get the port replaced.Hope this helps!!! you have to go inside and take out the 6 screws that hold it together, take out the 2 screws from that little black cover that you see and take out the board within by lifting it out....

Chosen Solution If the wall power is plugged in the computer will not boot up at all. You can hear the slight sound of the fans running and the indicator light is on, but know one is home. If the battery has a full charge and unplugged from the wall it will not boot up(has the same symptoms and the wall adapter). When I let the battery run down to approx....

Chosen Solution My computer stopped working. When I turn the power on it start emitting sound - 1 long and 2 short beeps. Guy from Best Buy said this sound is the code for a faulty video card, but since my computer does not have one the next thing would be a processor. I put a new one but my desktop doing the same thing. Any suggestions ??? galvinok try unseating and re-seating the RAM module....

Chosen Solution Hi, I was wondering if I can convert my iphone 5s to a 6. Is it possible to tear down the 5s and put it all in an iphone 6 housing with the iphone 6 lcd? Thanks! No. Nothing will fit or work as you want.

Chosen Solution Okay, so I have an iPhone 4s locked to Verizon/CDMA on ios 5.1.1. I am trying to unlock it to GSM, but everything I have tried to achieve unlocked status has failed (Jailbreak unlock using SAM, factory unlock). Is there any way I could perform a hardware mod and remove the CDMA processor and replace it with a GSM processor? Or, are the two so different that it would most likely not fit or recognize it?...

Chosen Solution I tried to replace the screen a while ago, but due to being too careless, I blew out some LCD filters. (I just discovered what this means so correct me if I’m using incorrect terminology) After looking for replacements for these filters, I see many for different models of Ipads, and not the Ipad 6. Anyone know why? You can use the backlight filter from the iPad Air 1 / 5 on the 6 as the LCD display is compatible across all models....
