    iPhone 5s isn't turning on, definitely has battery and my home button isn't working so can't attempt to reset it. Any suggestions?

    As title states, can't turn it on, so not sure if there's anything I can do, but may as well try. Anyone got suggestions?

    Windows won't install on BootCamp Partitions

    Posted: 30 Jan 2018 07:14 PM PST

    This has been a real pain. Here's what I've tried so far...
    * Windows Home Single Language x64 1703
    * Windows Home x64 from the Windows Media Creation Tool
    * Windows Home x64 1709 from the link on Apple's support site
    * macOS Sierra
    * macOS High Sierra
    * OS X 9.5 (wouldn't recognize a usb with a Windows 10 image)

    I have a 2013 MacBook Pro i7 2.3 GHz with 500GB SSD. I've formatting multiple times already, every time it's the same issue, that Windows 10 can't install to that partition because it's not NFTS. I haven't been able to find other articles of people having the same issue.

    How do I get bootcamp to work?
    EDIT If I can get this to work while having two installs of macOS, that would be ideal

    Unable to select 'Master Boot Record' when setting up portable hard drive

    Posted: 30 Jan 2018 06:42 PM PST

    I just bought a 3TB WD Elements portable hard drive and I am now attempting to format it to the exFAT file system. When i looked up how to do this I read I should select 'Master Boot Record' under the options menu in Disk Utility, but this option is greyed out and I am unable to choose it.

    https://imgur.com/a/NpFoi

    I have selected 1 partition under partition layout.

    I have a Macbook Pro running OS X Yosemite 10.10.5

    Any advice would be appreciated.

    Restore iMessage to Mac?

    Posted: 30 Jan 2018 06:26 PM PST

    I use iMessage on my MacBook and my iPhone, and I really like having the full history of messages with folks I've talked to, especially close friends. I accidentally deleted a conversation thread with someone I really care about on my Mac, but not my phone. Is there a way to restore it to my Messages on my Mac?

    Edit: forgot to include, I have an iPhone 6, and I'm running a MacBook Pro 13 inch, 10.11.6.

    Edit 2: nevermind! They texted me and the history came back. All is good!

    iPhone 7 with Bloated Battery Service?

    Posted: 30 Jan 2018 09:55 PM PST

    I've got an iPhone 7 with a bloated battery out of warranty. Will Apple replace this with a new battery for $30 or will it need a screen replacement first? It isn't too severe of a bloat and the screen is not cracked or damaged.

    how do i change the name of the current user on my iMAc?

    Posted: 30 Jan 2018 09:24 PM PST

    i currently have the Retina 4K Display 3.0GHz Processor 1TB Storage iMac with the High Sierra OS. When setting up my computer, i set up a sole user account, with my name and a password. Now i want to change the user name to something else. I have gone to system preferences>users & groups>Click lock to make changes>i secondary-clicked the current user>advanced options. When i got to advanced options, i changed my user name in the advanced options, but when i restarted my computer, the change was not effected. When i tried to go through that whole process again, i found out i was not able to log back in because it does not recognise both my new and old user names.

    PS: i tried my best to explain the situation as best as i could. Pls help!

    How do I add custom ringtones to an iPhone?

    Posted: 30 Jan 2018 09:02 PM PST

    I have an iPhone 8 Plus running iOS 11.2.5. I have tried dragging and dropping the m4r file into the tones folder of iTunes 12 when my phone is connected to my laptop, but it will not be accepted. Also I cannot play the m4r or mp3 version via iTunes. What do I need to do in order to make my phone get the ringtone?

    Should I upgrade to the newest macOS?

    Posted: 30 Jan 2018 05:12 PM PST

    So let me start by saying I'm ready to throw my Mac off Mount Everest with how awful it's been lately. I've had my 13 inch MacBook Pro (early 2011 model) for almost 7 years now. It's been great to me, but it's time for a new laptop. It's beyond slow, apps (like safari) randomly won't open, and everything freezes. It just doesn't have the power to do tasks like it used to.

    I don't really have the money for a brand new MBP right now, so I'm trying to hold off as long as I can, but it's becoming really tough. I've been holding off on upgrading to the new macOS because I assumed it would make my problem worse, but I'm starting to think otherwise.

    Anyone have suggestions? Should I upgrade? Should I downgrade?

    MacBook Air High Fan Speed / Running Slow

    Posted: 30 Jan 2018 08:38 PM PST

    Hi r/applehelp, my MacBook Air has been running an incredibly high fan speed while also running extremely slow for about a week now, even when I do not have any applications open (the laptop rarely, if ever, feels hot). This issue has happened before, but it's gone away much sooner in previous instances.

    I've reset the SMC multiple times and I have upgraded to the newest version of Flash. Do any of you have any other recommendations to resolve this?

    Thanks for any help!

    Why is iTunes creating massive files on my Windows 8 computer?

    Posted: 30 Jan 2018 04:18 PM PST

    About two weeks ago my Windows 8 computer started giving me warnings about running out of storage. After some investigating I find out that every time I start up iTunes a log is created in c:>Users>AppData>Roaming>Apple Computer>Logs. The file is just massive.

    I started it up and had it on for about 3 minutes before shutting it down and it created a text file "asl.190944_30Jan18" that was over 100mb. When I first noticed this, I had to delete a number of these "logs" that were well over 200gb in size. These "logs" can be opened in notepad as they are just text and the start with:

    [8104 @ Tue Jan 30 19:09:44 2018] [YSLog iTunes.exe] defaults key ShouldLog in domain com.apple.iTunes is (null)

    [8104 @ Tue Jan 30 19:09:44 2018] [YSLog iTunes.exe] defaults key ShouldLog in domain iTunes.exe is (null)

    [12468 @ Tue Jan 30 19:09:49 2018] [_ISDVLog SyncServer.exe] Logging initialized, engine version (null) : log level 3

    [12468 @ Tue Jan 30 19:09:49 2018] [(unknown facility) com.apple.Safari.isRegistered] dataClassNamesInstalledForClientWithIdentifier: app not installed

    [12468 @ Tue Jan 30 19:09:49 2018] [(unknown facility) com.apple.Safari.isRegistered] dataClassNamesInstalledForClientWithIdentifier: app not installed

    [16716 @ Tue Jan 30 19:10:13 2018] [com.apple.SyncServices.AppleMobileDeviceHelper AppleMobileDeviceHelper.exe] 011BEB10 4880 (AppleMobileDeviceHelper.exe) GetOverlappedResult failed with error 109; numBytesRead 0

    And then the last line is repeated over 1000 times every second. Does anyone know what the issue is?

    Messages on Macbook Pro Not Working?

    Posted: 30 Jan 2018 07:51 PM PST

    Running: Sierra 10.12.6, Early 2015 Model.

    As of around 6:30 US Central Time, I haven't been able to receive or send any messages on my Macbook. Whenever I try to send a message, the blue loading bar on the top of the chat pops up, but the message never goes through. I've changed networks, and the internet is working just fine. In addition, I only have a Macbook as an Apple product, so there isn't an issue of synchronization between other devices. Is there any way to solve this issue? Thank you so much for your help!

    Iphone 5s issues

    Posted: 30 Jan 2018 01:50 PM PST

    About a year ago I bought an Iphone 5s after I saved for it for over half a year naively believing that it would work perfectly. It didn't. Once it was replaced for a new one, but after the Apple warranty run out, I filed for a refund to a shop where I had bought it. Even though the phone gets stuck easily, switches on and opens up apps extrelemy slowly, and in messenger the keybord does not appear apple repair center (where the shop has sent the phone to) refuses to acknowledge these problems. Three times I've filed the complaint and three times the repair center denied their existance having just updated the iOS. What do I do? PS Sorry if that's not the right subreddit to post it, I do it out of plain desperation :/

    Context: I have an Apple account and I wanted to try and put a prepaid credit card for my payment method, and t said that it was invalid, so I went and tried to switch it back to none, and it won't let me. Is this some sort of bug? Have any of you had the same issue? Link: https://www.flickr.com/photos/155987733@N06/shares

    What would cause a dark spot in the shape of the apple logo on my MacBook Air screen?

    Posted: 30 Jan 2018 07:15 PM PST

    Hi! I couldn't find anything online when I looked this up and was hoping someone would know what caused this damage to my screen so that I can hopefully prevent it from worsening. I have a 13" MacBook Air that I bought new in June 2015 (I think it's the 2014 or 2015 model.) A couple months ago a friend noticed my screen was dark in the middle, and I'm not sure if it's getting worse or it's just bothering me more now that I notice it all the time. It's kind of hard to see in the pictures but it's only dark in the shape of the logo on the outside of the computer (you can see an indent on the left side of the shape that matches up with the bite out of the apple logo on the other side.) I keep my laptop in a case but carry it around daily in a backpack, is it possible this was caused by books laying on top of it? I don't really carry heavy books but maybe there was strain from too much stuffed into one backpack. Let me know if you have any idea how this happened/if there's anything I can do to make sure it doesn't get darker! Link to pictures: https://imgur.com/a/RhyiZ

    Hi I was trying to make a Facetime call today, on my late 2013 MacBook Pro, and by trying I mean trying to receive a call from another Macbook. I never got it on mine. Then I tried calling the person from my end, and they never got it.

    Applecare+ for ipad pro and replacement doubt

    Posted: 30 Jan 2018 10:38 AM PST

    Hey, sorry if this have already been asked, but... If you get a corner dent+scratch on the ipad pro, will they fix it or replace it with the apple care? If they replace it, will they replace it with a new one or a refurbished one? And if they fix it how long should it take, considering it is a small dent on the corner?

    I appreciate if you guys could answer this post! Thanks

    Scaled Resolutions Run Slower

    Posted: 30 Jan 2018 05:54 PM PST

    I have an hp envy 24" (I think thats the size) that charges my Mac and drives the monitor through one thunderbolt cable. Its a great cheaper alternative to apples crazy expensive LG monitors. My only dilemma is that the animations and everything are much smoother when I have the resolution for the monitor at either 4k or 1080p. Obviously 1080p will look way too large with this monitor and not utilize its full ability, however though 4k looks much better - everything is sooo tiny. Scaled resolution make the animations and everything run a little more slower and choppy. Is there recommendations where I can drive the monitor at 4k but have the overall ui scaled at an appropriate size? Thanks
