    MacBook air black screen after OS reinstall

    Was given to me by a friend so thought I would format the harddrive but guess I deleted the whole OS? The hardrive would not allow for reinstallation so I created a bootable USB to do it. After booting up I get nothing but a black screen (backlight is on) I cannot use any hotkeys to access the...

    The iMac Pro was released in December 2017 with a 1080p FaceTime HD camera.

    I have a mid-2012 1.8ghz i5 MacBook Air with 128gb storage. I use it lightly for web browsing and emails. The £800 m3 MacBook deal in the UK has me tempted for the screen upgrade alone (plus battery and 256gb storage). However, will I see any overall speed/performance upgrade? Has anyone else...

    My brand new MacBook Air 2018 has that rattle sound from the display when tilted.

    Resolved Assistance on if Sierra is compatible with these requirements.
