Chosen Solution I am planning to get a MacBook Air 11" Early 2015 can the Ram and the flash storage be upgraded? If yes, What would be the BEST options? Please help guys. You can request an upgrade during purchase. You cannot upgrade RAM and cannot economically upgrade flash storage post purchase. My personal opinion is that current applications require at least an i5 processor, 8GB RAM and 500GB storage. But it really all depends on 2 main factors: 1/ Intended use: browsing the Internet, using office apps, and exchanging E-mails really don’t require more than the basic/standard configuration of processor and RAM; no need to upgrade for that....

Chosen Solution do you recycle the iPhone 5s? Are you asking iFixit users if they recycle screens themselves or iFixit as a company? You can find people that buy broken glass screens and dead screens on the internet.

Chosen Solution Where can I purchase a Core2Duo 2.0 procesor for the Mac Mini A1176 (late 2006)? I have the Core duo 1.66 at present. It’s really not worth it to change your processor, it’s an incredibly expensive, difficult, and experience-necessary repair. You’re better off doing other things like maxing out your ram and getting a fast HD, or just purchasing a new unit. I don’t think the repair is terribly difficult....

Chosen Solution Hi all, hoping for some suggestions. Bought a non-working iPhone 6, got it home put it on known-good battery & dock connector, drawing 900mA on my USB ammeter but wouldn’t come on. Connected to iTunes, was able to do a complete DFU restore including installation of iOS 11 and went right through no problems. However at no time did the screen display anything and also I felt heat around the screen ribbon connector area, so once I got it restored and after checking with a flashlight to be sure that it wasn’t just no backlight I took out the board and had a good look around under the microscope....

Chosen Solution The signaling light on my Pontiac Sunfire does not work when I want to signal left or right. Hi, What happens when you want to signal? Do you hear a clicking sound? Does the turn light (left or right) come on and stay on or not at all? Do the Hazard lights work? If the hazard lights and the turn lights come on but do not flash, the flasher module is probably faulty....

Chosen Solution Hello, i droped the phone and the screen stoped work, i changed to another one, but now if i touch a little bit harder that part of the screen turned white and then went back to normal, what could be? It will be the LCD panel that is damaged. The outer glass surface of the iPhone 4 and 4S is the digitizer (or touch panel), and the LCD sits just below that....

Chosen Solution I just received a new Apex Pro keyboard, and while the keyboard in itself works flawlessly, the OLED display is just black. I have tried uninstalling drivers, different USB ports, restarted computer, uninstalled and reinstalled SteelSeries GG, but no cake. I’m planning on returning it tomorrow as I’ve gotten my RMA approved, but if there’s any fix for it I would much rather avoid having to return it and wait for shipping again....

Chosen Solution The charging port on my hp elitebook 360x 1030 is wobbly and only works if I lean it on the side and wiggle and angle the cable end just so. What should I purchase in order to fix it? Everything else seems fine, l’m not too concerned about battery life. @mandymoomin this one uses a USB Type-C power connector which is soldered to the motherboard. You’d be looking for a part like this and somebody who can solder this particular part....

Chosen Solution The nokia recognise there is a sim card inserted but wont find any network. I have tried to find it manually and it cannot find my network. Can anyone help? @happybrother1 start by contacting your service provider to ensure that everything is properly setup on that end. This may not be a phone issue since it does recognize the Sim card etc.
