    Magsafe I/O Board or Logic Board replacement?

    Hi there, I recently purchased an 11" 2014 MacBook Air from the facebook marketplace for $400 CAD. I'm feeling a little beside myself because a few issues have come up that I didn't detect initially when buying it and the seller was quite confident that aside from some lagginess when he...

    Warning below/after a custom-set battery percentage

    Hi, I read online that it's best to charge your MacBook by the 20-80 rule (plug it when it reaches 20% and unplug it when it reaches 80%). Any app that could notify me when that happens? Mind you, I only need an app that notifies me when that happens. I do not wish to install an app that...

    Out of warranty battery replacement cost.

    I have a late 2013 MacBook pro 13 retina and am thinking of replacing its battery and using it as a backup machine. The battery is slightly bulging and has only 75% capacity after about 500 cycles (which is odd, because I thought it was supposed to hold 80% capacity within 1000 cycles). I...

    MacBook Pro 2018 Battery Service Warning

    Hello everyone, my new MacBook Pro, which has only 3 cycles, shows this warning. SMC reset did not fix the warning message. I will try to do battery calibration today. It is not a good thing for a new machine... Does anyone else having the same problem with their new machines?

    What is the REAL expected battery life of the new MacBook Air?

    So the new MacBook Air is advertised as 12 hours of battery life. It's even "13 hours when watching iTunes movies" (LOL, like that matters). But the reviews are stating to achieve 8 to 9 hours. Is that what I should expect? I remember that when I bought my MacBook Air in 2013, it was the first...
