Chosen Solution Connected MBP Early 2015 to Samsung 4k monitor. HDMI>HDMI works as expected, 3840x2160@30Hz. Then I connected Mini DP > DP (monitor side). I expected 3840x2160@60Hz but all I get is 2560x1440@60Hz. In Preferences I cannot select any higher resolution with this cable. Is it a cable problem? Or I missed some configuration? Ah! You found the loophole! mDP vs Thunderbolt connections are not the same. To get 2560x1440 you need a Thunderbolt cable and the monitor needs to be Thunderbolt compatible!...

Chosen Solution I took apart my New 2DS XL last night, and I’m having some issues reassembling it. There are about 7 ribbon cables to reconnect, but there is one of them where every time I reconnect it, the console won’t turn on. If I unplug it, it boots up fine. So can anyone identify this ribbon cable or maybe why its doing this? Maybe its not being plugged in all the way?...

Chosen Solution I spilled some liquid. A small amount. Mostly on the touchbar. I shut everything down and let it dry for a few days. Now it seems to be working fine, except that the touchbar is dark and unresponsive, and the lights are off under a few of the central keys. I can totally live with it like this, but I’m worried about further damage from corrosion . I’m wondering if I can pry up touch bar, get in there and clean it myself…?...

Chosen Solution I own an iPhone 8 with a cracked screen and for some reason the home button does not register a press. Touch ID works fine though. I have a friend who is selling an iCloud locked iPhone 8 and I was wondering if it would be possible to put my motherboard inside his phone. If it’s possible, will Touch ID work? The motherboard is the phone, you are essentially just swapping phones with your friend....

Chosen Solution Hey everybody, My imac (21.5 2019) has an socketable cpu and I wonder if I can upgrade it to a 35watt (55-60 if it is boosting to the max) i9 9900t? if not what would be the best cpu I can put in it. Greatings, Wytse We know for sure you can take it to the i7: The iMac “Core i7” 3.2 21.5-Inch Aluminum (Retina 4K, 2019/Coffee Lake) technically is a “configure-to-order” configuration of the iMac “Core i3” 3....

Chosen Solution Okay so I accidentally dropped my Motorola edge on concrete right? It’s cracked a lot and in the middle of the cracks is a black dot, now just today or yesterday in the left bottom corner there’s a black splotch there too, no cracks around there though and my phone has been acting weird sometimes it freezes sometimes it just does stuff like randomly clicking on stuff, please Can it be fixed?...

Chosen Solution I DIY installed a new battery on my old 7+ but after I snapped the screen back in place, 3D touch won’t work on a certain spot on the center of the screen near the home button. I also found out that it works perfectly when the screen is loose from the body. And the certain spot stops working again after locking it back in the phone. i figured the battery might be pressing against the screen from the inside?...

Chosen Solution Hello, Apologies if this has been answered before but I couldn’t find anything that quite matched my problem. Got in a 5C to recover the data after a bad drop, touchscreen didn’t function and there were very faint white vertical lines through the LCD. I tried a new screen, and was presented with a dark blue image (as if not connected correctly). I reseated etc and tried two more screens all of which had the same problem....

Chosen Solution I own the Bose Wave Radio which I listen to with ear buds at night. Is there an adapter which will allow me to use blu tooth and wireless earbuds available. I am frustrated with the wires getting tangled and feel wireless is the way to go the wave radio supports that technology See if this helps Bluetooth headphone transmitters

Chosen Solution Hi there, my wifes macbook was not used since a couple of months. Now when trying to turn on connected to electricity, it seems to be dead even after minutes of trying to wake it up. She used for a last half year the non-original power adapter both in iShop - such a cheap version. Thanks for any suggestions Press the test button on the battery to see if it has any charge....

Chosen Solution Finally got around to open up my headset as I have yet to see anyone find do a tear down covering this headset and managed to remove the battery to get a quick picture of it to hopefully track such down but so far without any luck. Making this incase anyone might know of a supplier or just to have the images out there for others to hopefully find without tearing down their own head set....

Chosen Solution Anyone knows what component is at fault? Its a Galaxy Note 5.It can boot up and charge since i got bootup blue led and charging led i dont know if its mobo damage or lcd damage. It looks like the screen is the problem.

Chosen Solution My monitor does not turn on, I took it to an authorized apple service center and they told me they had to change the power source (sounds logical) but they added the change of “rear housing” which is a very very expensive piece, (it doesn’t sounds so logical to me) they explained that the On/off switch is embedded to the housing, I don’t repaired it whit them, I purchased an power source on eBay and I changed it my self, but it just doesn’t turn on… How I could get it fix it without having to expend so much money?...

Chosen Solution I have a Samsung qn75q70tafxza. Apparently there are different version numbers. My TV is version Version CF04. I need to replace the board so I ordered a board for my model number. I was sent a board for Version FB03. Same model number TV different version number. Are the boards compatible? This is the current board that needs to be replaced. This is the replacement board I was have...

Chosen Solution I bought my phone and when ever I charge it on the right side in the middle it auto clicks I’m looking for help. It’s probably due to having an cheap aftermarket screen installed from the previous owner. A good charger may remedy this issue. In case you didn’t know, you only need one profile for this. The state is auto clicker, then you have one task for enabling auto rotate (that’s the enter task) and then you can add an exit task to the same profile by tap and hold on the enter task and then select “add exit task” from the pop-up menue....

Chosen Solution hello for all I want to know if the iphone has a bad esn and it is unlocked can i use outside USA without sim lock ?? You can check it on major carrier website, just google “Verizon IMEI Check” of “AT&T IMEI Check”, and you can get information about it. You can put two different sim-cards from different carriers like T-Mobile and Sprint ant test if your phone goes to Activation Mode, your phone is not Unlocked and it don’t will work outside of USA ....

Chosen Solution I’m trying to figure out the best way to charge my MacBook’s battery externally. I have purchased an extra battery for it and wanted to charge one while I use the other. I have looked into the solution of buying a charger for my macbook from fast mac (http://store.fastmac.com/product_info.ph…) that connects right to the battery. Or I was thinking of getting a cheap macbook off of eBay to charge my extra battery....

Chosen Solution Hi all. As titled, brand new defy dishwasher. Arms not spinning. Our water source is from a Jojo tank with a booster pump on the line. Giving out 3.8 bar max. It’s about 6 or 7 meters between the two. Any ideas? Thank you in advance. Jenny Hi @jennypennysa , What is the model number of the dishwasher? Can you hear if water is entering the dishwasher? Can you hear if the dishwasher’s circulation pump is operating?...

Chosen Solution I just finished up a 6s repair for a buddy of mine, everything went well. He asked me to replace his camera lens because his had dust in it and I believe a scratch as well. Looking up the repair, it seemed simple so I gave it a go. It was pretty easy, I used some quick dry glue and followed the steps from the video I watched. It got a little messy, I should of had some better tools to dab a bit of glue on it, maybe a small cloth to....
