    Resolved Issue with Macbook Pro 2016. Rapidly drained battery and won’t turn on

    Hi so about 3 hours ago, I opened up my macbook and was doing usual stuff. In this place, the macbook pro 2016 (touchbar) is connected to the power 99% of the time. I did notice a few days ago, it would get pretty hot (fans at 2500-3000 rpm) while doing usual stuff (i do admit that I was doing a...

    New Macbook Air vs 2016 Pro (no touchbar)... office job

    Hi, I am thinking of buying the new air. I've always used the MacBook Air in the past, until 2016 when I switched to the Pro (without touchbar).

    Touch Bar and Safari - Favourites

    Anyone found a fix for this minor issue? Favourites usually show up in Safari on the touch bar as icons, but if you have two icons that are the same (e.g. different parts of the same website), then it shows the name as well, which takes up too much space. So, if I have BBC News and BBC Sport as...

    Replacing my old 15 inch to a 13 inch. Will I be disappointed?

    So, I need to travel everyday with my 15 inch and I'm getting pretty tired of it, it's too damn heavy! I was thinking of replacing it with the new top of the line 13 inch (3.3GHz i7, 16GB RAM).
