Does a MacBook need a webcam cover Posted: 24 Oct 2020 08:13 AM PDT Paranoid over being watched through my webcam. Is this an issue with MacBooks? I feel safe on my iPhone that I keep the camera open. But on the mac I do worry. submitted by /u/sunflowerj0y [link] [comments]

MacBook Air 2008 upgrade Posted: 24 Oct 2020 02:36 PM PDT Hey everyone. I have a 2008 MacBook Air with a failing hard drive. I was curious if anyone ever tried putting an iFlash SD card in there. I have an extra lying around and wondered if that was something that worked for anyone. submitted by /u/ZachGoodwin96 [link] [comments]

Is there a way to automate specific software setups? Posted: 24 Oct 2020 01:42 PM PDT I'm looking for a way that I can click a shortcut, or type in a command into Alfred or Spotlight to have the following example happen automatically: Close all open windows Open Safari and tile it to the left half of the screen Open MS Word and tile it to the right half of the screen Open Spotify in full screen and put the 'Space' on the left of the desktop Play a specific playlist in Spotify at x% volume Turn on 'Do not disturb' Is there a way to do this? I'd love to be able to have a few setups for work, browsing, gaming, brainstorming, etc. I'm on the Big Sur Beta, MacBook Pro 16" - I have Alfred and Magnet, and am open to purchasing any other third-party software required. Thanks, in advance, for any help you can offer! submitted by /u/something_something8 [link] [comments]

Macbook Silicon Posted: 24 Oct 2020 12:59 PM PDT Does anyone have a good idea if the new macbook silicons are going to have student pricing? Also, can someone explain to me what student pricing is? On Apple's website it says you need to be in college, but I heard people in the 7th grade getting a student discount on a macbook, and they went to the Apple Store. submitted by /u/Arindom69 [link] [comments]

Is it worth upgrading? Posted: 24 Oct 2020 08:52 AM PDT I have a 13 inch early 2015 MacBook pro and I've been thinking of upgrading for a while now. Is it worth it? Or should I wait until Apple launches one of their new ARM macs? submitted by /u/Kha0ticyakuza [link] [comments]

How long does your early 2015 MacBook pro take to start? Posted: 24 Oct 2020 08:52 AM PDT I've heard my early 2015 MacBook pro since 2016, and I recall that startup time (from pressing the power button to seeing the login screen) would be under 10 seconds, but for the past month or so, it's about 30 seconds. The apple logo screen with the progress bar seems noticeably slower, and I'm not sure what causing that. I've done things like reset my NVRAM, PRAM, boot in safe mode, etc.. and nothing has made it faster, so now I'm actually wondering if my memory is correct (i.e., if it really started in under 10 seconds in the past or if I'm just misremembering). I also had my battery replaced last month, but the startup slowness was present prior to that as well. I've also noticed that my computer seems to be a bit slower than before. Would a factory reinstall help? submitted by /u/orioncygnus1 [link] [comments]

2017 MacBook Air not powering on Posted: 24 Oct 2020 12:30 PM PDT Hello! Desperate for help with my MacBook air, which previously worked great, have never dropped or spilled liquid on it. Last month it would occasionally take slightly longer than usual to turn on once I opened it up. A few days later, it would not turn on at all when opened up. I left it to charge for a bit, then still nothing. I left it closed and a few hours later, I hear it randomly turn on (while closed) and see the cover's Apple logo light up - computer worked normally. This would repeatedly happen every few days, until finally wouldn't turn on at all. Made an appointment at Apple store - of course once I get there it turns on as normal. They ran some tests and couldn't find any issues with hardware or anything else obvious. The employee also did an SMC reset and nvRAM reset. Computer works fine for a few days, then repeated the same issue again. Was back and forth on the phone with apple support, nothing helped to turn it back on again. Eventually turned back on once I left it alone (again while in the closed position). Got back on the phone with support, who guided me through checking some things (can't remember what, but everything turned out to be already correct). Finally determined that I was still using High Sierra, and helped me update to Catalina. Every since updating to Catalina, everything was perfect! ... until today. Once again won't power on. Would really love to hear anyone's ideas - have already tried SMC reset and about a million different ways to press & hold the power button. Power cord connects and lights up, and whenever the computer finally decides to power on, the battery percentage is almost fully charged. Next step according to Apple is to drop off the laptop with them for 1 week+, but as a student who takes exams on my laptop, I really can't do that, especially not with the guarantee they'll find the issue since it's so intermittent :( submitted by /u/dogpetter8888 [link] [comments]

2015 Macbook Air a1466 stopped working, this is what I did so far. Posted: 24 Oct 2020 12:11 PM PDT My 2015 Macbook Air model a1466 stopped working one day after I woke up the next morning. I tried charging the laptop. Charge light went from orange to green: still doesn't turn on. I tried pushing Shift+ Ctrl+ Opt+ Power button method: still doesn't turn on. I tried holding the power button for 10 secs to a minute before and after plugging in the charger: laptop charges but still doesn't turn on. I bought the recommended screwdriver kit (1.2, T5, etc) and removed the back of the laptop. Brushed and cleaned the logic board and battery pack, removed and re-plugged the battery connection, ssd card, lcd screen connection: still doesn't turn on. I then removed and replugged the battery pack: Still doesn't turn on. I am now planning to attempt to remove and replug the logic board, however, the corrosion indicator light is NOT red. So I don't think there is a water damage problem. What do you think is the problem? If anyone has experienced and fixed this what did you do? Also, as a broke college student, if I did have to replace some parts, how much is it going to cost me at the end of the day? submitted by /u/myintrospective [link] [comments]

MBA 2020 i5 vs i3? (8 GB RAM) {student} Posted: 24 Oct 2020 12:11 PM PDT So I want to buy a MacBook Air 2020 for making Word documents, PowerPoint presentations, surfing the web and sometimes Netflix. I may even need to use MS teams and sometimes Zoom. I'm a med student and don't want to do any heavy work on my MBA. I also have an iPad Air for Netflix and making notes. I've read so many reviews talking about the heating issues with MBA so I decided I'd get the i5 (I literally dont know anything about computers just seemed logical lol) but then I read more reviews stating that i5 heats up even more. I'm kind of okay with the MacBook heating up a bit because my previous MacBook did the same. I just don't want it to lag while doing these basic tasks. Also really really don't feel like splurging on Pro unless I really need to. Please help me decide if the MBA will be fine for the above tasks and if I should get the i5? submitted by /u/Hey_here [link] [comments]

So, I spilled something Posted: 24 Oct 2020 11:12 AM PDT Hi everyone, For reference, my mac is a 2020 macbook air with the new keyboard :) Last night while reaching for a book, I accidentally knocked a glass of Diet Dr. Pepper onto my macbook. It was probably 1/5 or less of a normal glass worth of liquid, but it spilled directly onto the keyboard and a little bit into the crack between the screen and keyboard. Freaking out, I mopped up as much as possible right when it happened and tried to do everything I could... the screen continued to work for a while, so I turned it off.. and then turned it back on like a dumbass.. turned it off again, and eventually it wouldn't turn on. I tried to press pretty hard on the keys to get the liquid to come up through the cracks and that worked for a while.. eventually I decided to just let it sit with the power off. I didn't know how to place it so I alternated between tent position/upside down closed up a paper towel in between the screen/keyboard. Again, like a dumbass, I tried to turn it on about 2 hours later. I started hearing this faint clicking noise repeatedly, but nothing turned on, so I held the power button again and it stopped. Left it to sit again for about 22 hours (24 hours total now). I just tried to turn it on and still the clicking sound, no luck. It's sitting again. Am I screwed? I probably made every mistake but I was panicked. What can I do? Is there any way to save it? Please help :( submitted by /u/Unkerse [link] [comments]

Macbookpro 16inch Lid Problem Posted: 24 Oct 2020 10:13 AM PDT Whenever I fully close the lid of my MacBook it keeps the screen on. When I close the lid slowly I can see that the screen goes of at a certain angle but comes back on when the lid is fully closed. Do any of you guys have a solution. submitted by /u/Legendofwario [link] [comments]

Dead USB C ports on 2016 Touch Bar model Posted: 24 Oct 2020 06:10 AM PDT 2016 MacBook Pro with Touch Bar. UsbC used to not work during high use (gaming or coding), i usually let my Mac cool for a few hours and it works again. My laptop works perfectly fine otherwise. A month ago, usbc completely died. Laptop charge died and I can't use my laptop anymore. I took it to Mac outpost (authorized apple service) and they charged 140$ to do "diagnostics". I paid since Apple store had backlog and no available dates. A month later I get a call from them. They say the usb c birds need replacing, 80$ parts cost and 250$ labour cost. I was happy until he said there is a chance it may not work after the replacement in which case I may need a full logic board replacement for 800$, total overall cost of 1300$ "potentially". I was furious. Why charge 140$ for "diagnostics" and not be able to give accurate and certain "diagnostics". I found appointments at the Apple store so I'm taking my laptop there. My question is, will Apple actually help me in anyway? Laptop is out of warranty, I've had it for 3 years. I'm fine with paying cost of repair and it will likely be less than macoutpost but if they suggest a straight up logic board replacement (800$) , should I do it or buy a new laptop? What have others experienced? submitted by /u/youjustgotpwnd4 [link] [comments]
