Hello MacRumors, Last week I brought my Mid 2012 13" Macbook Pro to NCIX to upgrade the RAM and install a new SSD. I upgraded to a 16gb 1600 MHz Corsair memory kit that was specifically for Apple products. The SSD that was installed was the Samsung 850 EVO 250GB. The next day my laptop was...

Hi Team, I attached an airplay speaker to the network (Yamaha Music Cast type), I then saw it on the iTunes airplay section as an available speaker. However I accidentally clicked to the right of the airplay speaker in iTunes where it disables it. I can now, for the life of me find where to...

I've browsed the forum and it seems some people also have this issue, but I just want to know your opinion about this and if you've solved the issue. Notes do not sync when it's created from the Notes app on both my iPhone and Mac. The existing notes will load just fine but when I make a new...

Hello, I am the owner of a late 2011 MacBook Pro (Model A1286) and am the only owner. Never had any issues with this laptop until just recently. The Logic board is an Apple 2009 820 2565-A. I had placed my labtop on my bathroom counter and took a long shower. I think the steam from the shower...

I don't know what has happened really, when I woke up it was just powered down and then when I was opening it, it just got stuck on the Apple logo and i've been trying to restart it by letting battery die and plug it into the charger to see if it would help, but no, nothing, it just doesn't...

So this is a really bizarre one. I installed Windows 10 on my 2016 15" TB Pro. I installed a few games that I'd previously been able to run perfectly well on my old 2012 retina. After a few minutes of playing, I notice that there are some audio issues when I play Skyrim, so I go to google. Many...

Hey guys, I have a weird one for you. Over the past month my Macbook has started to shut down very unexpectedly. I could be in the middle of some light browsing and BAM, its gone. There isn't any commonality either - sometimes I could be using it for 2 hours with no problems, other times I can...

Alright so my friend who has an iPhone 5S has been having wifi issues for a while now. While everyone else's connection is fine, she's having a hard time with her weak wifi. It sometimes works fine, but then it sometimes just stops, leaves full wifi bars but doesn't even refresh instagram pages...

I installed a flashed NVIDIA GeForce GTX 970 in my Mac Pro 2009 (flashed to 5,1) to power my 4K display. I have the most up to date NVIDIA Web Driver available for OS 10.11.3 (web driver is 346.03.05f02). The card works fine except Photoshop, Illustrator and Indesign (all the latest versions)...

When I plugged my charging cable in to my phone, it wasn’t working. After a while, the phone ran out of charge and then, when I plugged the cable in, it displayed the graphic that shows it’s charging (just the battery, without the cable pointing towards it) It’s been at this stage for about...

I have been working on this for 2 days now with 0 success. I have a first addition Macbook Air model A1237 that came with no hard drive due to it being donated from a college. I have no other working Macs to pull and image or backup from. I purchased a Zheino 128GB SSD and have successfully...

Hi, after successfully going through boot camp and installing windows 10 on my MacBook Pro (13 inch late 2013 256GB, macOS Sierra public beta) I turned down the brightness of the display to zero and went to bed (leaving windows on with the display off). When I woke up the next morning, I tried...

Mid 2010 MacBook Pro, 13in running El Capitan. I tried booting up into Internet Recovery Mode and every time I can put in my wireless password but then it just hangs there with the globe spinning. And if I try to click on the dropdown again, this error message pops up. I have searched but can't...

Hello all I am having quite some trouble emptying the Trash from my iMac. I deleted an inProgress file from a hungup time machine backup and now it is stuck in the trashcan. I have followed these steps here: http://pondini.org/TM/E6.html but to no avail, and the file still persists. When I run...

Hi! On my iPhone 6s, the notifications on my lock screen and top banner aren't working properly. Instead of showing the "mark as read" button, it shows a button with no text. I'm not sure if it's related, but sometimes a frowning face emoji appears as a growing symbol, not the yellow emoji...

I have 2 used 3.06 hex core processors I'm in the process of installing in my 09 mac pro. The firmware update is done, the processors are being floated on 5 (each binding post) .5mm metal M4 washers and I have been able to get my mac pro to post with no red lights at all!! (small victory!) For...

Anyone have this happen? All of my scenes disappeared. I will have to reconfigure all of them. Unless someone know where/how they are stored, and how to recover them?

I had been battling with my iPhone 6 Plus for sometime, the constant unresponsiveness of the touchscreen and grey screen flickering was troublesome. After weeks of this, it finally became completely unresponsive. Although all of the buttons worked. I set up an Apple Store appointment and I went...

Hello this is my first forum post ever. (My main computer is a Vaio Laptop and I have a desk external HDD.) I am posting because I was gifted a MacBook Pro 2006 non-unibody A1150 Core Duo 1.86(not Core 2 Duo). My boss didn't want it and so my wife wanted a Mac just to do simple school work on...
