All three of the Macbooks made a somewhat quiet noise when opened, sometimes when closed. It sometimes sounds like a click, but other times it's a bit louder and sounds like a sticky...

    No voice on a FaceTime call

    Hi, I used to talk to my dad (which lives in another country) via FaceTime. I use an iPhone 6s Plus, he was using the old iPhone 4 I gave him. That's the unique purpose of that iPhone, since my dad is a newbie in anything around technology. He learned how to make and receive calls, that's all...

    Some of you have already tried Skyrim in Boot camp on the new tMBP, did you also experience sound issues there? Both Skyrim and Skyrim Enhanced have these issues, where you can hear some sounds, but not all of them. In game music doesn't work either. Strangely enough, Fallout 4 works great, just...
