Chosen Solution Hello! After repairing an iPhone 5s, the phone booted into recovery mode. I connected the device to iTunes, and tried to both update to 8.1.2 (no luck, kicks device back to “Update or Restore?” option) and restore (again, no dice, simply returns to update or restore). I am provided no error code by iTunes, it extracts the software, enters restore mode for several minutes and then exits back to “The software on ‘iPhone’ needs to be restored to factory settings or updated....

Chosen Solution Hello, my Acer Cb5-312t is stuck on the os missing screen. I can change language with the left and right keys, but no others keys give a response. Ive tried with both the internal keyboard and an external keyboard. What else can i do? Cheers It sounds like the Chrome Operating System has been corrupted. You can restore the operating system by creating a recovery image. This guide here should give you the first few steps for creating one....

Chosen Solution Cleaned out this console and applied new thermal paste, but is still overheating and shutting off. Make sure that the clamp is not installed upside down with the two screws and does it turn off very quickly right after turning it on? Also if the washer trick was used for a blue light of death fault that will cause the issue too if the washes are too thick.

Chosen Solution My laptop will bring up the Asus logo and then the screen turns black and will stay like it for hours. I’ve pressed f9 when the logo comes up to reset it and all it tells me is the laptop needs a disc ? @mollieclarke09 connect an external monitor and see if it does the same thing. It is possible that your computer is unsuccessfully trying to access the OS....

Chosen Solution I have replaced the screen with two new screens and both screen work perfectly except for the touch screen element doesn’t work - is there a connection i am missing or a software reset option that can resolve this? Did you get your replacement screen from iFixit or somewhere else? If you are fine using the tablet without using the touchscreen do the following: Get a wired mouse and a Micro USB OTG adapterCharge the devicePlug the OTG adapter into the Micro USB port....

Chosen Solution I am the original and sole owner of a Motorola G5 plus 64gb running Android 8 1. After my first year of ownership (approximately) I started to notice that my screen would stay black when I was receiving an incoming call. Nothing I tried could wake the screen: I tried pressing the power button on side and also touching the thumb pad /finger print sensor but nothing worked. But after I missed the call the screen would wake to tell me so (ie that I missed a call…thanks a lot)....

Chosen Solution My Ipod 160gig Classic does not boot up. Instead, I see a while ‘apple’ with a black background flashing on and off. I’ve charged it and sometimes the menu will appear but it does not play. My Ipod 30gig Classic does not boot up. Instead, I see a while ‘apple’ with a black background flashing on and off.

Chosen Solution Every time I charge my Kindle it takes hours to charge why Hi, It’s all in the maths. Your Kindle Fire HD 7" has a 4000 mAH battery. If you are using the charger that came with it, it has a 1000 mAH output. As a rule of thumb, not quite strictly true but close enough, with these figures it could take up to 4 hours to charge the battery from flat to fully charged....

Chosen Solution Hi there, I have a macbook pro 13" late 2011, as most of us, from time to time we want to upgrade, so i first upgraded the ram, from 4gb to 16gb, all good there. then after a week i bought a SSD and a caddy to replace the optical drive and have a faster laptop. I followed the guide on this page as how to do that, followed every single step, put it all together, and now my mac is not switching on, tried every trick in the book, i tried to reset pram, smc, tried with the battery on the mac, and nothing, tried with battery and power cable, nothing, tried just with power cable only and nothing, tried to jump start witht the power pads and nothing, so i thought i would put everything as it was before the upgrade, original hard drive and optical drive, and still not switching on, no sounds or signs of power on laptop, trying reseting pram and smc with the orignal hdd and optical drive but also no help, seems like that there is no power going to logic board at all, the side button of the mac for the battery check works and says that there is charge on battery, and when plugged it alson shows orange light as it is charging, but nothing will turn it on, have anybody had similar problem and got it solved?...

Chosen Solution Happens when browsing webHappens when watching videos in QuickTimeHappens with or without Speck shell Somewhere there was a question “where can I find temperature and fan speed”.. There are some nice tools, but this seems the easiest way for me. Just run the command in terminal shell: sudo powermetrics be aware that this command requires admin privileges. So if you are logged in and your account has admin privs you are asked to enter your login password....

Chosen Solution I have a Acer Predator Cestus 300 mouse that I’ve used for 6 months since. Recently, it’s right click seem to be broken: sometimes when I press it does have the “click” sound but it does not work. When it happens, I have to kinda press it harder to make it works again normally but I worry if I continue to do this I will brake that right one....

Chosen Solution My calculator was working fine until this morning during a test the screen turned super faint. It didn’t die because I can still (almost) see the numbers. The batteries are new but I tried other ones just in case. Any ideas? Janessa, try to adjust the brightness. The contrast on your screen might have reset to dark. You can adjust it by pressing “2nd” and the “up” arrow (or “2nd” and “down” arrow) repeatedly....

Chosen Solution The phone shows that the battery is charging but its not. It shows the green battery and lightning icon but the battery drains iso charging.

Chosen Solution After a digitizer and wifi chip replacement my power button and i also think volume stopped working? The iPad 2 has a ribbon cable in the top-right corner that’s responsible for the power button, volume, and mute slider functionality. This ribbon is frequently stuck to the digitizer, and is easily torn if you don’t know it’s there, and don’t take active measures to gently seperate said cable form the digitizer during repair....

Chosen Solution As a frequent firer of my Nerf N-Strike Elite Retaliator, I often am bothered by the sliding mechanism on the top of the blaster. I have no problem sliding it back to fire, but the joy that I experience by watching the dart strike my intended target is interrupted abruptly. The sliding mechanism does not slide forward completely over the dart-clearing access door. What is a man to do?...

Chosen Solution Hi, i have problem with my MacBook. The screen is white, what can be the issue? LCD is fine, not cracked. What failed?https://imgur.com/X26VOJX - Photo of my issue What do you see on a connected external display? If it properly displays your desktop when the internal display lid is closed you still have something a mis within the internal displays logic. If you can’t get an image on the external then you likely have a deeper issue within the logic board....

Chosen Solution Hello why my mini ipad is often restarted continuously in the apple logo ?? It sounds like your iPad is boot-looping. Your battery is most likely at the end of its life. To be certain, use a battery utility, such as coconutBattery (for Mac) or 3uTools (for Windows). It will tell you what the health of the battery is. Anything less than 80% of design capacity will require replacement....

Chosen Solution Recently, I have been putting a small system build together with a Radeon HD 6950 1GB, as the graphics card. When I tried to boot up with the integrated graphics, it was fine, but when I booted off the 6950, nothing. By the way, I have went into the BIOS and turned integrated graphics to off. I have checked my cables and the graphics card turns on, just does not connect....

Chosen Solution Hello, my BLU vivo XL will not charge I have had it for just barely over 5 months and about 2-3 months ago I noticed that sometimes my phone wasn’t wanting to charge when I would have it plugged up. I would have to maneuver it a lot in order to get it to start charging, and I assumed this was just an issues with the chargers. After my phone died today because it didn’t want to charge I bought a third charger and it doesn’t seem to be charging my phone either....
