    2015 MacBook Pro Recall Repair

    I took my MBP in last Wednesday for the battery repair. It arrived at the depot today. It went from diagnosing to repairing in one day, hopefully meaning that it’s quick. The genius at the Apple Store recommended that Apple replace the top case as part of the repair program as well. Is this...

    iPod 1st Generation iPod Nano

    Recently I picked up a 1st generation iPod Nano in decent condition with some accessories and the box. I charged it up and it's fine. It sounds pretty good too and is a nifty, portable device. I like it a lot, but I have a question of concern. I know there's a recall program for that certain...

    Will Apple Repair a Used iPhone 7 (A1660) Under Recall?

    A family member bought a "new" 32GB iPhone 7 for work on eBay for about a hundred dollars less than what Apple offers. Based on past experiences buying bootleg DVDs on eBay, I was skeptical. The phone arrives and once turned on, it starts bootlooping. It looked a little worn for being new so I...

    Good news everyone...

    I am picking up my 2017 MBP soon after having the T key fall off one to many times, and the sudden failure of all (i.e. both) USB-C ports, plus issues with returning from sleep (it would take minutes for the display to appear). It is about 2 months out of official warranty (that is I got it at...

    Mid-2011 SATA DRIVE

    Hey guys, I’m resurrecting an old dinosaur as I’m on a budget and the 2011 iMac came with final cut pro 10 all for $400. I got home with it today and encountered online info that the drive inside (Seagate - ST31000528AS) was recalled. I’m thinking it must have had it’s drive revised with apple...

    Should Apple be held accountable for 'wear and tear' on battery following USB-C cable recall?

    Hi All, So my question is as follows. Should Apple be held accountable for unnecessary 'wear and tear' on a battery following USB-C cable recalls on units shipped in 2015? This thought comes from my recent interactions with Apple following the repair of a rMB keyboard without an extended...

    iMac in the oven at 390°, now it won't turn on.

    I have a iMac 2011 27", EMC 2429, 2.7GHz, MC813LL/A, and I'm having problems. First one was the display shutting down randomly, likely due to the common problem with this iMac that Apple did recall here. After days of research, I found the most common fix (after the recall expired) was to...

    Hi all, first post here. I sent my iphone 6s to apple to swap out the battery under the recall, but apple says they can't fix it because I have a broken LCD. The problem is that the phone has an intact screen, there is no visible damage on the screen. Is it possible to have a damaged or cracked...

    I recently had two less the positive interactions with Apple phone support and Apple retail. Both instances were in regards to a Recall program (USB-C cable and Travel adapters). I'll try to keep my stories short and to the point. My experience with the USB-C recall: Spent over 30 min. on the...
