Hi, hopefully I'm doing this forum thing right... (I'm new). I have had a major problem with my Mid 2015 15-inch Macbook Pro. For over a month now, it won't charge AT ALL past 37%. It always stops at that number. On top of that, even while connected, the battery goes down, or at least that's...

I've got a Mid 2015 MacBook Pro running Monterey. A WD 1TB My Passport quit being recognized by the system after several times of inadvertently being unplugged without ejecting. It's got a micro usb connection that would fall out a lot. The drive lights up and whirrs when connected and the...

I'm upgrading from my beloved Mac Pro 5,1 (with Metal video card and 40GB RAM) I've had since 2010 to a new MacBook Pro (because Apple doesn't support installing anything beyond OS 10.14 Mojave on it). I can't afford a new Mac Pro right now—so that leaves me with the option of a new MacBook Pro...

Since our local Apple Store is closed because of COVID, I decided to pick up (2) MacBook Air's and (1) MacBook Pro, all with the M1 chip and is on the truck to be delivered today. My wife got an iPad Pro last Christmas, and about 6 months ago she admitted she should have got a MacBook instead of...

I use a 2009 Macbook Pro as a desktop 98% of my time. However, I like the versatility of the laptop when traveling. I am looking at the 2018 Air. There are two Thunderbolt 3 ports. However, I have already spent 3+ hrs trying to "just simply" find information about an adapter to connect the 8...

I originally posted this in tha Apple forum but noone had a successful suggestion. The computer used to work fine. Now the bootup process shows the apple and the status bar about half full. This takes minutes. The computer stalls there. Eventually it gives me a full white screen for a while then...

Hi there, I have a mid-2012 Macbook Air 13" that froze up on my while I was using it a couple months ago. When I turned it back on, it would show up a grey folder with a ? inside it. After a quick Google search, I realized it was an error with the hard drive. I since purchased a hard drive for...

In a long-winded thread on the Software section I discuss issues with DiskWarrior. Blah . . . blah . . . blah everything is working fine--I even now like El Capitan--but now DiskWarrior says I have "bad blocks." Nothing else does. I am running a surface scan. However, it being Friday here, if...

I have a 2009 Macbook with the follow specs: 2.26 GHz Inter Core 2 Duo 2GB 1067 MHz DDR3 I have installed Yosemite on it and it does run, albeit very slow, but it's tolerable. However when I try to run Xcode 6.1 with Swift, it is incredibly slow to the point where it is basically unuseable...

I recently got the latest 15" Retina MacBook Pro, and I've run into a problem when I try to use HDMI. As soon as I plug in the cable, the entire system freezes completely. The mouse won't move, no keyboard inputs seem to do anything. While this is going on, the TV keeps going between a black...

Many folks like to use their Macbook as a desktop computer at the office or at home. They plug in a bigger monitor, a keyboard, a mouse, etc., and it becomes a great desktop. You may have seen some fancy Macbook stands/holders on the Web that allow you to stand up your Macbook on edge while...

I bought and installed an Angelbird 240gb crest for Mac SSD. I have a late 2011 MBP and 10.8.4 Mountain Lion. After I installed my SSD i got my computer up and running, after about a week I checked the system report and I found that the negotiated link speed was at 3gb. I did a ton of searching...

I know this would completely void warranty, but is it possible to order a retina display lip for my 15" macbook pro and upgrade my current one? I was considering buying the new mbp's, but the lack of upgradeability (and obviously) the massive cost of buying a new computer just don't convince me...

I have a 2007 MacBook 2.2 with an upgraded HD to 260GB SSD & 4Gb SDRAM. The trackpad seems to have died. Every so often it takes a single finger as a two finger gesture and goes into "right click" mode. Then after a while it goes back to normal for a time. I think that it's the trackpad...

The new Macbook I purchased earlier today won't read disks. The disk drive itself will only occasionally accept the disk, as it usually feels like I have to force it in. It often gets stuck 3/5 the way in and is blocked by some sort of internal wall. When it does accept the disk, it spits it out...

Hello - I am boot-camping Windows 8/OsX (I love them both!!!) However.... one thing that annoys me about the OsX platform is that, for some reason, when I plug my macbook air (late 2011) into my Samsung P2450 (via HDMI), the screen is distinctly blurry. Now, I've done all the obvious...
