This one is gonna be long and complicated. Half typing this out for myself - sometimes you figure things out in the middle of long posts like these... Anyway Important information - MacBook Pro "Core 2 Duo" 2.8 17" Mid-2009 5,2 A1297 - Upgraded to SSD and 8GB RAM - Currently running a fresh...

For the past 2 months I’ve been experiencing intermittent shutdown issues with my iMac 27” from mid 2015 which is still covered by Apple Care. It first started when I noticed that my Mac kept powering off while I was away from it. Gradually as time went on (3weeks) id notice my Mac was turned...

Hi, I am searching on how to autoboot a MacMini (2014) on powerup. Not reboot, but actually boot. It's quite important because the mac is driving an installation and is difficult to access. I remember that was easy to achive in earlier models, and the new MacBookPro has it built in by default...

Prompted by the recent post regarding Minecraft and Java SE 6 for PPC, I downloaded the related packed and installed it on a few of my systems. Eventually I got the notion to give it a whirl on my famous heavily upgraded Power Macintosh 8600. (450MHz Sonnet G4, 1GB RAM, Radeon 9200) Low and...

Hi folks. With the introduction of iPhone 8 and iPhone X, I've been thinking a lot about chargers. I definitely plan to get a Qi charger this fall. I see the new iPhones will charge at 7.5W speeds using Qi. Not only do you need to buy a wireless charging pad that supports that speed, but also...

“Harvey” hurricane struck the southeast Texas few days ago and “Irma” just came on its heels. The desperate residents in the city are still struggling with food and water ahead of the severe flooding. How to help the city back to normal is the cardinal task for Houston Mayor and also the rest of...

Hello Everyone, i had an accident with my macbook pro 13 inch 2014 A1502, it got a little wet, i turned it off, opened it and cleaned everything, but still...the logic board got ruined, now it wont charge, tho everything else is working ok. I did almost everything to make it work, verified that...

Did you guys see already this video? So not only takes lot more power like I wrote in my previous thread, it's now confirmed it's noisier than before, go to 3:01, just noise 3:40, so frustrating

Hi everyone Just wondering how people generally feel about/ what experience people have with using Sata to 6 pin y cables to run a graphics card? I have access to an rx470 with 8 pin that has a tpd of over 150 so intend to use both the board 6 pins to run it. It'd be nice to be able to keep my...

So whenever I put my mac book air to sleep for a long period of time it shuts down completely and has to be plugged into a charger for 5 minutes before it reboots. The light doesn't even show up on the charger at first, and it is always full charged when I put it to sleep, so I don't think...

Hi all, I have Mac Pro Late 2013 D300, shipped with Mavericks 10.9.5 and works fine without any problem for 2 years (i'm buying it at early 2015). Two weeks ago, I update to El Capitan 10.11.5, the problem is it can not turn on after shutdown. Press power button, its dead, and only turn motion...

'Cuz I'm about to buy one at a great price but the guy selling it doesn't know if it is an Early or Late 2005. The machine has no GPU nor HDD, so he can't test it by himself. Is there any identifier on the case so that I can know? Maybe the serial number? Thanks for reading. I'm topping it out...

Does anyone know of a way to remotely reboot an iMac? I've run into cases where I've remote connected in and the iMac has frozen, leaving me with no way to deal with it until I get home to hard reboot it. I'm thinking maybe using something like the Elgato Eve Switch connected to HomeKit, with...

Hi all, I have a 2016 Macbook, with only one USB-C port. I'm wondering if there is an adaptor out there that allows you to use multiple USB-C devices going into your one port, but also has power passthrough - the obvious limitation being that while an adaptor is in, you cannot charge your...

So is the new 87W USB-C Power Adapter just block with a plug? No USB-C cable? And obviously, no extension cable correct?

I have a MacBook Pro (Retina, Mid 2012) What seemed to be a one-off has happened more frequently and now occurs around once a week: Using computer unplugged, will shut off/sleep. If I hit the power button to turn it back on/wake it up it will either: Flash the low battery/plug-in adapter sign...

Is that possible to run a Titan X from the internal Mac Pro Power using this Cable? https://www.amazon.de/Express-Polig-Grafikkarte-Karte-Adapter/dp/B00APNIYKU/ref=sr_1_3?s=computers&ie=UTF8&qid=1471438176&sr=1-3&keywords=6+to+8 I already own the Mac Pro to 6 Pin Adapter.

Hi, I have an iPhone 6 that I've owned since December 2014. In the past few months I've been buying chargers pretty much weekly for it because the thing destroys them somehow. After anywhere from a day to 3 weeks of use, the charger starts to do that thing where it disconnects then reconnects...

ok, ive looked into this issue and have seen many threads (including here on MacRumors). almost all responses point to a battery issue. I have a 2011 Macbook Pro8,2 @ 2.3Ghz. About 2 months ago it started powering off randomly. as if you removed all power sources from it. As of recently the...
