Chosen Solution unfortunately, i had to format my pc twice…so my valuable photos had deleted…..can i get the back? Using file recovery software like Photorec, you may get some of your files back but most likely not all of them. Photorec can recover files that have been accidentally deleted - whether by pressing the delete key or by reformatting, but only if the files have not been overwritten. If you re-installed your operating system after reformatting, the disk has been written to so it’s likely that some of the files have been overwritten....

Chosen Solution My old cat chewed up the audio cable from the headset itself and bit through the wire. I found a 5 wire cable and bought some replacement 3.5mm TRRS jacks and replaced the whole wire and jack with them. The sound works perfectly fine but when i try to test the mic, it doesn’t pick up anything. I wired everything up in the way its supposed to be wired up....

Chosen Solution Hello, I have an early iPhone 3GS that shipped with a #616-0431 battery. I ordered a battery from directfix and tried to install it as im very technically experienced. It was the exact same part number that my phone had. Opened it, installed it but then my phone would reboot about every 2-5 minutes. I kept the battery i took out and and yes im using iOS 4.1 (8B117) and MC145C....

Chosen Solution On my Macbook, the bottom rubber base is peeling off little by little. I do not want to pay Apple to have this fixed. Is there a way I could fix it myself? Here is a link to some previous answers to this question. Hope this helps. Can you replace the rubber base? This is now a free repair from Apple. In 2015, this is no longer a free repair....

Chosen Solution Yesterday While i was using facebook my Phone (Samsung J5 (2015)) got switched off. I tried to turn it on and also it is not responding to the charger. I also tried to turn it on with Vol Down + Power + Home Buttons but it didn’t work. It would be great if somebody could help me out. What caused this problem? Did the phone fall down?

Chosen Solution So I got this iPhone 5C thinking it was going to be an easy screen replacement… Before I replaced the screen it would vibrate multiple times when on charge. I read that this was due to a display not being plugged in. I’ve replace the screen. Touch screen work but I can’t see a thing. I’ve notice on the board there is a pin missing but I think that’s to do with the touch screen?...

Chosen Solution So I was repairing a cracked screen on an iphone6s, but before beginning I forgot to shut off the phone, I did disconnect the battery however. Then once I finished the screen is black and won’t turn on with the power buttons. It occasionally flashes the screen for a second but then it goes black again. I am able to answer calls and charge it and it is definitely on but it doesn’t show dor nor than the rare second....

Chosen Solution After plugging the screen in many times before and it working. suddenly it stoped responding to touch so I checked to make sure the cables were connected properly and they were I restarted it but just can’t understand why the touch is unresponsive Inspect the flex cables. If you’re not careful when installing the new screen on the frame, you can pinch the cables between the screen and frame, resulting in either creasing or tearing the cables....

Chosen Solution Seat back support handle broke, now seat won’t sit upp Rose Maxwell, 1st link talks of a recall on the seat mechanism and it may be worth checking if your Saturn has a recall on this also, you can do a search using your (year/make/model seat recall) or check with local GM dealer. If not repairable through recall, easiest fix for this would be to visit a good local auto recycler(scrap yard) and purchase a good working used seat....

Chosen Solution New to me Polaroid SLR 680 is unresponsive after loading a 600 color film pack. How to unload the film pack to check battery and camera contacts ? I heard one click sound in series of eight button presses, but otherwise no noticeable response from camera. Film pack bought at Best Buy.

Chosen Solution is it possible to solder in a new i3 i5 or i7 proccesor ? or what proccesor can i solder in? also whats the most amount of ram i can solder in ?

Chosen Solution Hello, I have a problem. My 5 c works perfectly then sometimes stop taking certain keys. If I rotate horizontally then I put it vertically, it works, then after a few days the problem occurs again, I tried to mount another original display but the problem sometimes recurs. Not even a tweet in dfu mode solves the problem Since you tested with a different known good screen, it is now safe to say that your iPhone is suffering from a “touch” disease very common to all iPhones with a soft shell, and to a lesser extent to other iPhones with a hard shell....

Chosen Solution Hi! As title. Yesterday a great mourning has come upon our dwelling. My MacBookPro is dead. I have already organized the funeral home and the obituaries :) The cause? A damned quarter of a glass of water that I accidentally bumped into and let water in from the back. It initially stayed on but as soon as I placed it in position to let the water out, it went out....

Chosen Solution I bought this printer a few weeks ago, parts only from eBay. I bought the cables needed to make it work, plugged everything in, and got an error. I’m pretty sure that it’s an issue with the cutting part, I have cleaned that all out and still nothing. I would be very grateful if anyone could help as there’s very little documentation on this model, as it’s just the TSP700, not the TSP700II....

Chosen Solution Is the T6H, T7H, T8H, T9H, T10H -bit identical to the (torx security) TR6, TR7, TR8, TR9, TR10 -bit? And what is the reason for the difference in naming? I’m deciding whether to buy a precision screwdriver kit. T[…]H: vs TR[…]: The difference is the T6H is the torx security bit, and the T6 is the regular torx bit. I think you can use the torx security bit in the regular torx, but you definitely can’t use the standard torx driver in the security screw....
