Chosen Solution When I unzipped my plastic zipper, it came competely off of the jacket. How do I get it back on? I’d go to a fabric store and take the jacket with you. Repairing the plastic zipper will probably just end up with the same problem. The workers at the fabric stores (look for one that would make a good grandmother), usually have a lot of experience and can lead you to a quality zipper and show you how to install it....
Chosen Solution I’ve been using my laptop for over 3 years now, and I have never had any issues with it in terms of performance. However, recently I had to do some simple video editing with premier pro which slowed down my laptop during the edits. I thought the lag was just because I was running the program but it didn’t go away after im done with the project. Now my laptop is super slow!...
Chosen Solution Hello, bought this mac book online without battery, SSD and charger, so I bought those parts separately. I am trying to install MacOS, not being successful. The first attempt was Mojave from a USB flash drive and crashes during installation rebooting and entering in a loop. Then I tried high sierra and same error. After tried to internet recovery mode but it doesn’t recognize my SSD. Next day I took it to a apple certified store and they were not successful and said that might be a bad drive....
Chosen Solution Here’s a run-down of everything that’s happened so far. Please help—I need my MBP to work! Just bought and installed a new iFixit battery last night for a mid-2012 MBP unibody.

Success! Or so I thought. Left machine on charger all night and planned on re-calibrating in the morning....

Chosen Solution The washer performs fine until the final wash/spin portion of the cycle. It does spin and drain out, however when it gets toward the end of the final rinse cycle, it does not complete a high speed spin cycle, it starts to: the rpm’s pick up but then within 10-20 seconds or so it slows back down, not ever reaching the rpm’s that it did before this issue. (before this issue that extended spin would take several minutes to complete and sounded like a jet)....
Chosen Solution I was wondering if I could get my hands on some older iFixit opening tools, as I personally despise the current design. Ones that look like what is in this picture. Thanks! Since the iFixit team is being somewhat slow and unhelpful about this, you can find those kinds of plastic spudgers just about everywhere when you’re in the repair industry. they come with basically every knockoff LCD you buy off amazon, and you can find them in almost every basic kit; I have about 40 of them....
Chosen Solution Completed a battery change and charging port change but phone failed to charge. I placed a USB Detector between the power supply and the charging cord and it shows no load going to the phone. Also hooked a test cable at the battery connection and plugged in the phone. It confirmed that there is no charge going to the battery. Battery showed voltage on the meter. What is the best way to confirm if the new charging port is bad?...

Chosen Solution Over a period of time my LG TV has stopped working. It turns on but there is no longer a picture or sound. I’ve read that it could be burned out capacitors. Any suggestions? Hi, What is the model number of the TV? Disconnect the power from the TV and remove the back cover. Initially visually inspect the power board (usually the one where the power connections come in to) for domed, blown or leaky capacitors....

Chosen Solution Hello there, I have an old PowerBook 145b, when I boot it into System 7 it works fine until after a few seconds the keyboard and mouse stop working. So I can’t click anywhere or type anything, but the trackball itself works fine as I can move the cursor around. The amount of type until it stops working varies: It will take ~5 seconds if I leave it sitting idle but if I use the mouse, continuously clicking as fast as I can I can get it to work for 30-45 seconds before it stops clicking and typing....

Chosen Solution For about 1 month my computer would occasionally shut down while sitting un-attended. But, would restart when the power button was pushed. It has been running virtually day and night since I purchased it new in 2009 in Saudi Arabia, (I am currently in Thailand). I installed a new battery and reset the PRAM plus cleaned everything internally. Including the vents to the power supply. Afterward it started fine and worked for about 4 days and then shut down on it’s own and would not restart even by holding down the Command, Control, Escape keys which had worked once before....

Chosen Solution my iphone 6 is typing and opening apps by itself. How do i fix this. I just bought it last week. I restored as manufactures cleaned up the screen the problem continues Hi, Where did you buy it? If you bought it from Apple or from an official retailer like Carphone warehouse etc. Then you’ll have a year warranty and can get it replaced free. If you bought it second hand, from a third part repair shop or online, then it may still have warranty, unless it is refurbished and has been repaired elsewhere....
