Chosen Solution What is the best memory to buy for my mid-2012 MacBook pro. There are huge differences in price. Personally. I like Kingston. 2 x 8.0GB 1600MHz DDR3L SO-DIMM PC12800 204 Pin https://www.neweggbusiness.com/Product/P… There will be several opinions on this. It’s kind of like asking which is better, a blond or brunette.

Chosen Solution I couldn’t find my phone model here. It’s Realme C17. It fell couple of days back from the table and after that a portion of the screen turned pitch black. The black lines ran horizontally throughout the screen. When I started using it, the horizontal lines were reduced to small portion on the right side. I have noticed that when the phone is cold, the black lines reappear throughout the screen and when the phone is hot, these lines become green and most of it comes back to normal, while some stays green....

Chosen Solution I got an iBook G4 12" 1.33 GHz handed down to me and was told “it won’t power on anymore!”. I found out why when I opened the bottom case. I saw a dangling connector with a loose blue wire and a white wire attached to the connector. The socket looks good so far. Maybe I can test that with a flat-head screwdriver later. Presuming a realistic possibility, how can I restore the blue wire?...
Chosen Solution Someone mistakenly plugged my Bose SoundLink Mini into a different adapter that had a similar plug but had a different (higher) amperage. I was not around but according to him, it was charging fine. The next day I was not able to turn on my speaker, nor was I able to charge it in its proper adapter. It’ just dead and I have tried leaving it for a few of days and then retried to charge it and turn it on but nothing worked....
Chosen Solution We had a thunderstorm roll through and the following day, I discovered that both HDMI inputs on my Panasonic TH-42PZ77U plasma TV, no longer work. The TV seems to be working fine otherwise (I can access menu, etc), but I can’t get any image to appear regardless of device I plug in (Xbox360, cable box, Roku, etc). Edited with photos showing boards. I don’t personally see any damage but then again I’m not sure I’d know what to look for....
Chosen Solution Hi, I used your guide “MacBook Pro 13” Unibody Mid 2009 Optical Drive Replacement" to install a second hard drive (SSD) on my macbook pro. Unfortunately I broke the socket for the right speaker/subwoofer cable connector from the logic board. See: Step 4 — Optical Drive. Is it possible to solder the socket again on the logic board? Is there something I must consider? Should I use the socket or is it better to solder the cable directly on the logic board (pins)?...
Chosen Solution Can you buy the connector which goes on the logic board for the battery charging regulator. I still have the solderings visible but the connector popped off when removing the cable. Sadly, you really need to try to salvage the old connector as I don’t have a source for this connector. The only way I would fix this would to salvage the connector from a parts system. I think you need to find someone who fixies Mac’s to have them replace it if they have the part....
Chosen Solution My Mid 2010 i3 3.2GB 21.5" iMac has a 1TB Seagate ST31000528AS. I have to replace HDD’s with the same manufacturer for the thermal sensor, right? Where can I find a Seagate 2TB HDD that I can swap out with the original? Thanks in advance. Yes you are correct this does need same manufacturer. I believe also it must be of the same series, which means you are going to want to find a drive to the tune of ST32######AS....
Chosen Solution I am a total beginner at photography and wanted to start dSLR with a basic camera but after having it only a few days, it stopped powering on. I removed and changed the CF card, still no power. I continued by removing the lens, cleaning connectors, replacing battery, still no power EXCEPT the lcd screen will show the EOS in the top left when it’s turned on with a CF card in place....
Chosen Solution In preparation for the kinect I have installed a USB cable in the wall of my media room. Alas it wont extend the kinect cable. Can I cut the kinect cable and USB cable and twist together the individual cables at the tv end and do the same at the console end so it will use the kinect orange plug that fits the console? Esentially will a USB cable spliced into the Kinect cable work as a make shift extension?...
Chosen Solution Hello, I’m going to get a 2.1 ghz C2D MacBook (white) with a broken keyboard for 40$. I can just use it with an external keyboard. But, the main reason I want a Mac is to run Final Cut Pro X. Obviously I’m not going to be editing 1080p video, but just to tinker with and figure out how to use. I have a copy of Final Cut Pro X 10....
Chosen Solution Current CPU: i5-2500S (2.7 GHz Sandy Bridge i5)Upgrade to CPU: i7-2600 (3.4 GHz Sandy Bridge i7) TPD is 65W on the i5, and 95W on the i7. Both share the same socket (LGA 1155) I am considering a CPU upgrade (and an SSD upgrade while the beast is on the operating table!). I have heard some success stories on the mid 2010 models. I want to hear from this community and see what the results are in real life trial (there is information out there that says it might be possible, but without any confirmation)....
Chosen Solution Can I upgrade my Inspiron 5737 to I7 processors so I can upgrade to windows 11 and do gaming? Hi @meh7777 Check in BIOS for a TPM (Trusted Platform Module) setting, (enable/disable). I’m not sure if your laptop has a TPM module or not If the laptop doesn’t have TPM 2.0, Win 11 won’t work anyway. (it may only have TPM 1.2 or none at all). You can’t upgrade the CPU because the CPU is hard mounted onto the systemboard However, you can improve performance by replacing the HDD with an SSD and also upgrading the ram....
Chosen Solution My macbook air display got broken so I decided to buy a new one rather than spending a bunch of money on just replacing the display. I want to take out the ssd in my old computer to then transfer the data to the new computer but the T5 screwdriver I bought, doesn’t seem to fit, even though it is the type pf screwdriver I need. Anyone else run into this issue?...
Chosen Solution I use these headphones a lot, and the material covering the padding on the right ear has ripped open and the foam is expanding out. I dont want to have to sew it myself and I was wondering if i could have this repaired or can I get trade in value. They were $250 and I love them dearly. Any tips would be much appreciated. Super easy. Barely an inconvenience....
Chosen Solution My Apple Watch screen lifted and come to find out it is due to the battery overheating and it swelled. Just curious if it could be fixed? Yes, It can be fixed! Given the fact the screen is already pulled away a bit it should make doing this your self much easier. Are you up to it? To help you, review this vid of Alex opening a Series 2, it’s the same for your Series 1 (the Original Apple Watch is a bit different) How to Replace the Battery on an Apple Watch Series 2 and you might want to review the Original Apple Watch guides while slightly different the same techniques are needed: Apple Watch Battery Replacement I’m sure you can forgo the iOpener as the display is already lifted....
Chosen Solution I recently tried to do a mini jumper fix on an iphone 7 plus Logic board. This was to fix the slow boot and audio problems that the 7 plus is renowned for having. I had a lot o trouble removing the old chip and subsequently damaged it. I also pulled a bunch of pads off the board. I see plenty of posts about changing the home button and that the itouch won’t work anymoe....
Chosen Solution Can you tell which of these two cheap 2.1 amp boards will produce better sound by just looking at their components? (see pictures below) TPA3116D2 VS TDA2030A https://www.lazada.com.ph/products/ycrow… https://www.lazada.com.ph/products/i2098… It would be nice if you included a link to these boards so that we could evaluate them better. The one on the left has a better layout, showing some attention to detail that hopefully gets transposed to the design aspects....
