    Is replacing the keyboard backlight expensive?

    Posted: 15 Jun 2019 06:53 PM PDT

    I stupidly kept my nail dehydrator on my MacBook air (early 2015) and I spilled it but thankfully it dries super quickly so I'm assuming no water damage(it's basically like acetone or alcohol) and the only problem is part of my keyboard no longer lights up. I've done SMC reset so I'm assuming the backlight is just damaged. How much would this cost?

    My parent’s iMac started throwing this error screen and is bootlooping. I don’t know anything about macs. Anyone have suggestions?

    Posted: 15 Jun 2019 12:52 PM PDT

    Has anyone ever used one of these? It's and adaptor to mount an m.2 ssd on MBP retinas with proprietary connector. It could be very cheap to upgrade storage this way (1tb ~ 100€). I've read some issues with Mac not recovering from sleep mode, do you have any experience/tip?

    did Finder change it's layout?

    Posted: 15 Jun 2019 06:43 PM PDT

    I noticed today that Finder's layout for the "Recents" tab changed; beforehand it went as: Images, PDF Documents, Presentations... & as of now it's: Presentations, PDF Documents, Images... All i did before i noticed this change was restart my computer, and other restarts dont seem to change it to the way it originally was.

    Has anyone else noticed that the Finder's Recents tab changed their layout as well? What exactly could have caused Finder to change its layout? Why did this change occur and is there a way to change it back?

    There's a guy selling a macbook pro claiming Office, Photoshop, Illustrator, Logic Pro X, FCPX all come with it. Isn't that all tied to the apple id? Is this a scam?

    Posted: 15 Jun 2019 06:23 PM PDT

    I mean I'm pretty sure Adobe switched to a subscription model years ago and the apple software is locked to your apple ID, so if I buy this laptop none of that can be used by me.

    Am I missing something?

    iPad mini 2 issue please help

    Posted: 15 Jun 2019 05:43 PM PDT

    So I was just watching YouTube as you do when my iPad stopped connecting to the internet but still connected to the WiFi. my internet does this sometimes so i just waited it out because it normally fixes itself after a few hours. its been about 9 hours and it is still not working. I tried all the regular stuff like forgetting the network, resetting the router, resetting my iPad etc. but nothing worked. I'm out of ideas, does anyone have any ideas on how I can fix this problem thank you. (ios 12.1.4 if that helps in anyway)

    Dual monitor dock

    Posted: 15 Jun 2019 05:29 PM PDT

    I have an 2017 Macbook 12" and would like to use it with two external monitors, but I couldn't find any dock that's just USB 3.1 instead of Thunderbolt 3. Does anybody know a dock that have two video output that can be used at the same time and it's compatible with my MacBook? Thanks

    FaceTime audio (not video) issues

    Posted: 15 Jun 2019 05:18 PM PDT

    When you go into your texts and hit the persons name it shows the ways you can contact them (call, FaceTime, etc.) all of mine work perfectly fine except when I call my mom from there it does the phone call through FaceTime audio. It's the only one that does this and I can't figure out how to stop it. Everything online is about completely disabling FaceTime which I don't want to do. I just want to be able to call her without it automatically sending via FaceTime audio. Help?!?!

    Posted: 15 Jun 2019 01:14 PM PDT

    So, suddenly last night my MacBook Pro stopped accessing the internet via any program or protocol except TOR (The Onion Router) web browser. Not Safari, not Mail, not Software Update, not VPN, not Maps, nothing. I have not installed any new software, or changed anything before it stopped working. I've done a number of things to fix this,including:

    1. restarted my computer
    2. shut it down
    3. restarted the cable modem
    4. restarted the Apple AirPort
    5. run Disk Utility
    6. switched to another wireless network (xfinitywifi)
    7. connected through wifi to my iPhone (AT&T) to the internet

    Specs:

    MacBook Pro 2.2 GHz Intel Core i7

    MacOS Mojave 10.14.4

    Safari v12.1

    TOR Browser v8.5.1

    Macbook Air 2015 Battery Problems

    Posted: 15 Jun 2019 05:00 PM PDT

    I have a 13" Macbook Air 2015 running Mojave.

    I've been having problems with my macbook suddenly shutting down at times.

    I've gotten the service battery notification.

    Coconutbattery is giving me erratic values on design capacity, but I get something as low as 5.3% design capacity.

    My battery has only gone through 461 cycles.

    I've already tried resetting the SMC, running down the battery and recharging fully, but the problem is still there.

    My Macbook is already out of warranty.

    Would appreciate any advice.

    Restart Required to Connect to Different Network

    Posted: 15 Jun 2019 04:40 PM PDT

    Every time I travel with my Macbook Pro & connect to a different network, I must restart the computer before I am able to connect to the Internet. It doesn't seem to matter if it is a new network or one that I'd joined in the past. I seem to be able to obtain an IP address & get the little green light showing up in my Network control panel that says 'connected', yet still won't be able to load any website until I restart. This is definitely something that I hadn't experienced prior to upgrading to Mojave, but I can't say for sure exactly which system update preceded the issue after that. Anyone else experiencing this or able to suggest a workaround? Thanks.

    Can I go back from High Sierra to Yosemite on a mid-2010 Macbook Pro?

    Posted: 15 Jun 2019 03:46 PM PDT

    I am currently on Yosemite on my mid-2010 Macbook Pro. I'm thinking about upgrading to High Sierra, but first I am curious to know if it will be possible for me to go back to Yosemite if I have any problems. I have all my data backed up, so I have no problems reformatting and reinstalling if necessary. I have a bootable USB drive Yosemite on it. Is it possible to just format and go back to Yosemite?

    Bought 2009 Mac Mini on Ebay, won’t boot, black screen, no chime. Help :(

    Posted: 15 Jun 2019 03:17 PM PDT

    I bought a 2009 Mac Mini (no hard drive included) with 8gb of G. Skill memory from Ebay and I installed a Samsung 750 Evo into it. However I'm not getting any kind of chime or video on my monitor? I'm using a mini display port to hdmi adapter (https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00PJ3LSIG/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1). I'm a complete beginner with Mac (this is my first mac) so I'm confused on what's going on here. Could I have received a broken Mac Mini? The seller claims it was tested and works, they just wanted to keep the original hard drive I guess. The seller also has 100% feedback with hundreds of sales, so I'm still under the impression this is suppose to be a working Mac..

    My other theory is that there needs to be something on the SSD. Currently it's just a blank un-partitioned SSD. Does this matter? Is it not like windows where I'll see a bios screen or something? I'm very confused.. I really hope it's nothing major. I was hoping to be able to use this to mess around in Garageband and perhaps Logic in the future if it'll run okay, as well as install High Sierra onto it using dosdude1's patcher. Worse comes to worse maybe I can contact the seller or even do a Paypal charge back if it comes to that. I really want to get this working. Little dissappointed that I'm not seeing anything on screen.

    Also if it makes any difference, the power light turns on and I just hear the fan spinning. I also tried putting in the original install disc's (as well as the copy of 10.6.3 snow leopard which it came with) and holding the letter C on my keyboard when it boots but I get nothing. Sounds like the disc gets choked up a little when it goes in as well (makes odd noises every few seconds), then after a little bit the mac mini just spits it out.. Is it suppose to do that? Any help here would be greatly appreciated.

    I just tried an NVRAM/SMC reset, as well as booting from a bootable USB which I created using TransMac on my Windows PC. Nothing :/

    I also tried hooking up to another monitor, I noticed the monitor will turn on but then go back to sleep.

    MacBook won’t turn on!

    Posted: 15 Jun 2019 03:11 PM PDT

    My MacBook Pro won't turn on. I have tried charging it. I have tried the power, control, options then power and lots of other tricks, nothing. It was just sitting in my backpack in a padded case. This isn't the first time something like this has happened, but last time I just came back and it turned on. Any help would be greatly appreciated :)

    How do I know what is actually taking up space in my iCloud backups?

    Posted: 15 Jun 2019 03:07 PM PDT

    I have 5.5 GB on my iCloud so it can't back up without me paying for the 50 GB, which I am doing for now just to be safe, but I know that I don't have that much data that I want. In the past, I have turned off literally everything except contacts, calendars, and notes. I have like 150 contacts, maybe 20 notes, and like 10 events saved in my calendar. I have turned off (and deleted) every app on my phone from icloud, photos and messages and everything else is turned off, and I have even deleted the entire backup and let it go all over again (just to get like 5.4 GB the next time instead of 5.5 GB)

    When I google this question, Apple's instructions on their website are less than helpful. When I go to manage storage like the website tells me to do so, I see health is taking 30.8 MB (fine by me, idc), notes is taking 591 KB (which I want, and that's microscopic), and then it just says "Backups" is taking 5.4 GB. Here's a photo.

    So then when I click on Backups, and click on "This iPhone," it gives 0 information. It shows me a list of apps asking if I want to back up their data, and every single one of these apps is turned off. Here's another photo.

    I tried going through the process on my Macbook as well, as Apple suggested, but I found pretty much the exact same information about my iOS backup. Also, iCloud backup is turned off on my Macbook, but that shouldn't be affected my iPhone 5.4GB backup anyway.

    Keep in mind, I just deleted the backup again and re-backed up prior to writing this post and taking the pictures, so everything I have done to try to solve the problem already has had its test run, and proved to not fix it. So I need new solutions. Hopefully, you all can help me because this is really frustrating to be paying for 50GB of data knowing that I don't need or want the 5.5GB I have.

    Internet suddenly stops working while maintaining full connectivity; only known fix is restarting my iMac, help.

    Posted: 15 Jun 2019 10:55 AM PDT

    Connecting to any website other than Google or Youtube gives me an error saying 'the connection has been reset' (on Chrome). At one point I had Kaspersky running on this computer but now no longer have an anti-virus. I'm able to connect to home-wifi from down the block and my speeds are typically around 45 mbps. I'm not sure if this is an issue with my computer or Chrome or a mix of both, but since restarting my computer fixes it every time I thought i'd start here. Any help would be appreciated.

    CD not showing up/ejecting out of computer

    Posted: 15 Jun 2019 02:20 PM PDT

    So, earlier today I put a CD in my Mac. It didn't show up, and the computer started making a whirrish noise over and over again. I shut it down, then booted it back up, after which it continued to do so. I held down the Eject key, also to no avail. The CD is still not showing up. I've got a 2009 iMac, running OS 10.6.8.

    [Question] How do I connect an Xbox One controller to my new MacBook Pro 2019?

    Posted: 15 Jun 2019 01:37 PM PDT

    Hi guys, I recently bought a new MacBook as well as a USB-C Hub for it. I tried connecting my xbox controller with a Micro USB to the USB port on the USB-C Hub, but the controller vibrates and turns on but then instantly off. Is this due to a lack of power? Anyone know how to connect it properly and be able to use an xbox controller through the thunderbolt ports?

    Disable News+ on iPhone?

    Posted: 15 Jun 2019 12:58 PM PDT

    I just opened the News app on my phone for the first time in a while. I see there's a News+ tab right in the middle. I don't plan to subscribe to News+. Is there anyway to disable that tab? Seems ridiculous to have one tab there wasting space if you're not a subscriber.

    What happened to the old tabs — favorites, For You, Explore, etc.?

    Daisy Chaining 2 Dell U2417H monitors to a 2018 15inch MacBook Pro

    Posted: 15 Jun 2019 12:52 PM PDT

    I'm struggling in getting this to work. I made sure to enable Display Port 1.2 on the monitor. The setup goes as mini display port hooking up the two monitors together to a Henge dock which then plugs into the MacBook Pro. Any advice on how to make this work? If daisy chaining doesn't work, could I hook this up with two separate display ports to usb c adapters plugged in separate ports on the computer?
