Chosen Solution I am about to replace the hard drive in my power book aluminum 12¨but I ´ve lost the original os disc . Can I downloaded from the web? Unfortunately you cant download your “OS” online, legally that is. I would recommend that you use SuperDuper or CarbonCopyCloner and just “clone” your old drive into the new one till you are ready to buy your installation disk. You can also call apple support and ask them if they can supply you with a installer for your macbook....

Chosen Solution Hi, I just bought the right speaker replacement for my MBP 16”.

I will be removing the old broken one and replacing it with the new one, so where should I find the glue to attach it? And which type/brand of glue should I look for?...

Chosen Solution iPhone 12 pro max , rear glass replacement. Now when on speaker phone the person I’m talking to can’t hear me. Which microphone is for speaker phone? Bottom, top, or rear? I believe this is the top mic (the one near the earpiece).

Chosen Solution Starter won’t turn over and the power is fluctuating. Starter is new and battery tests good Ronnie Row, If battery is indeed good 12.4+ volts and starter is new and tested to be good and you only get a click noise when trying to start, the connections on/from battery to starter or from on/battery to grounding point could be loose/ corroded/ damaged. Maybe clean/retighten battery terminal and connection points and if no go try giving the car a boost with cables, just to rule out a weak battery....

Chosen Solution I have a really old lamp, and I want to put an energy efficient bulb in it. I can’t seem to find 60W compact fluorescent bulbs anywhere though. Do they exist? Are there certain types of lamps that I shouldn’t use compact fluorescent bulbs on? Because compact fluorescent bulbs use less electricity, the wattage ratings are different. a 60w replacement usually are 11-15 Watts! The cool thing is that because of the difference, you can get say a 100 Watt CF Bulb and it will only use 24 Watts - but provide more light than a standard 60!...

Chosen Solution @jasminmattern66 make sure that you verify that your TV is a UN60FH6003FXZA model. Unplug the main board from the power board and see if your TV’s backlight stays on. If so than you are almost at a point where you can call the issue being related to the main board and not the power board. Once we know the exact model we can probably give you something more concrete....
