Chosen Solution So, if you look around the official apple answers you see the standard “NOO YOU WILL CURSE US ALL” answers that you usually get from the die hards who believe apples BS. So I thought I would ask here. Surely if I buy a 16” MacBook Pro I can partition the drive and install Mojave on the system right?. I really don’t want to use a VM which is what the official apple answers crew is telling people to do, I would rather run it natively....

Chosen Solution I have the A1708 Retina with 256 SSD. I was wanting to update the SSD to 1tb. When I installed the new drive with the adapter the computer will not see the drive!! So I replaced the original ssd and then the same thing happened. The computer can not see the boot drive. Please help me. ?? When you say it won’t see the drive are you trying to format it and install a fresh copy of macOS using Internet recovery?...

Chosen Solution I have a MacBook Pro 15" Unibody Late 2008 and Early 2009 with a dead hard drive and no battery. It starts up fine with an Apple OS disc but the fans are on high and the backlight is out. I can barely see the Apple logo in the middle of the screen and hear the cd chiming away. Any ideas? No damage physically to the Macbook. First thing I did was reset the SMC which got it turning on....

Chosen Solution I put my nextbook on the charger and it only charges to 32%. Why is this happening and what can I do to repair this? I have had my nextbook for about 2 years and it has been doing this for approx. 6 months now. My model number is NX16A11264. Do I need to get a new battery, or reset back to factory settings? Hi @valrose , You could try a factory reset (backup the tablet first)....

Chosen Solution I have an iphone 7 with 128 gb capacity, and once I dropped a knife on the screen and got it broken. After I replaced the screen and battery, now I have another problem which is the iphone touch irresponsive every now and then. Sometimes I get away by locking the phone and then unlocking it, but some other times I have to hard reset the phon for the touch to start working again....

Chosen Solution When I try to turn on my laptop, an error message is displayed. There may be a problem with the RAM, or you may not have enough RAM on your computer. Look at this troubleshooting page for more information: HP Compaq 6910p Troubleshooting Page First of all I SWEAR by my $50.00 Compaq 6910.p T7500 Notebook. It’s bullet proof, it has THE BEST keyboard ever made (I type 140 WPM which is a curse) and as an Intel Core Duo, it’s not that bad of a Pre Pottery Neolithic B (PPNB) Notebook of circa 2007 vintage: I need more material before I can attempt an answer Q....

Chosen Solution I’ve had my Lenovo Flex 6-14IKB for about 2.5 years and for the past few months (almost a year) I’ve had quite a bit of trouble with a holding a consistent internet connection. Of course, at first I thought it was my home WiFi, but I soon noticed that it would disconnect randomly from any WiFi network. Even when it is connected to a network, it still seems slow even when the WiFi tests show 100+ Mbps download speed....

Chosen Solution So background to this, the iPhone has been starting to unexpectedly shutting down. I replaced the screen, a month or two ago, and then got the battery replaced a week ago. On Coconut Battery, the battery health shows that it is good. If you had something replaced a week ago, and that’s when the change in behaviour started, I would enquire with whoever carried out the work and ask them to fix it....

Chosen Solution My phones charger keeps disconnecting from the device when it is plugged in, and sometimes it wont recognize its charging at all. I just bought a new wall adapter but i’m using the old cord. If your Keon is having difficulty charging, first make sure that the Micro-USB adapter is properly fitted to the device and plugged into a working wall outlet. If your device still is not charging you may need to replace the battery, Lithium-Ion Batters only have a limited number of charge/discharge cycles they can go through before they become unusable....

Chosen Solution My laptop keeps overheating after an hour or so of use. Is there anything that I can do about it? Check to see if the fans are running if they are take a can of compressed air and blow the dust out of them blow the air backward through the fan by blowing in the exhaust vents . If you cant hear the fans then you’ll need to take it apart and and change them out or figure out why there not working....

Chosen Solution My iPhone’s microphones stopped working completely, I tried to test it by recording a video and there is no recorded audio from any of the mics. When I tried using voice memos it wouldn’t even let me hit the record button as if it can not detect a mic. The speakers do work by the way. Apple replaced my 7+ out of warranty due to the 11.3 issue; mine acted like the headphones were plugged in, even when they weren’t....

Chosen Solution So my Galaxy Grand Prime is about a year old and has been through cared for extensively. The only real thing that ever happened to it is that it was dropped in the pool about 8 months ago and other than the first couple of hours the phone has worked fine, and beside a couple of drops and the normal bump here or there, it hasn’t been over exerted....

Chosen Solution I have a Samsung Galaxy Grand Prime which I bought aprox. 2 years ago. It still runs with Android 5.1.1. Till that moment I used Play Music. When I tried to download Samsung Music from Play Store, it didn’t even let me download because my device was incompatible with that version. In the description of the app, it says that is compatible with Android 5.0, 6.0, 7.0. I have tried to download it by AC Market but when it downloaded the installation was blocked and a “action blocked” table popped up....

Chosen Solution My tablet isn’t on mute or silent, and my volume button works and is turned on. However, it isn’t making any sound or noise at all no matter what I do. If it’s a software issue; you can do a soft reset by holding down the power button for 8 seconds until the device turns off. If that method doesn’t work you can do a hard reset of your device but make sure to perform a backup so you wont lose all of your data....
