Chosen Solution Hi all, I have a problem with my Ipod Classic and I have no idea what else I can do to fix it. So I plugged my iPod in my computer and ITunes started to freeze. After a while ITunes said that I had to reset my Ipod which I did right away. After it was done resetting, I plugged it back into my computer to restore it, but ITunes would freeze again and it again would say that I had to reset my iPod there was ‘do not disconnect’ on the screen of my Ipod....

Chosen Solution So I recently acquired a 7th iPod Classic with a dying drive and bad battery. I’m planning on replacing the drive with flash memory and the battery, but I soon discovered that the 5th generation iPod (referred to iFixit as the Video) has one of the best sound chips ever made in the history of the iPod. So, I was wondering: Does anyone know if the 5th Gen’s audio cable (iPod Video 30 GB Headphone Jack & Hold Switch) can replace this (iPod Classic (Thin) Headphone Jack & Hold Switch) With no problems?...

Chosen Solution An Apple ID verification code is required to sign in. Type your password followed by the verification code shown on your other devices. Sounds like you have installed a new hard drive and a new system. You also appear to have an iCloud account. The Apple ID you are trying to log in with is associated with an iPhone or iPad. Apple is sending a 6 digital verification code to one of those devices and wants you to put that number in....

Chosen Solution How to get Samsung tablet to change using usb Hi, Use a magnifying glass and a strong light to visually check the USB charge port to ensure that it is not damaged i.e. all the pins are there and that they are all straight and parallel with each other.

Chosen Solution What to do to charge the battery? Solly, Good afternoon! More than likely you are in need of a new battery. I have been seeing a lot of 2012-2014 MacBooks coming in to bet battery replacements. You can get a battery tool such as Coconut Battery to check your battery’s health. Similar to phones, MacBooks have a limited number of cycles before the battery can no longer perform. I hope this helps!...

Chosen Solution My Roomba 960 give the “Charging Error 6” error, according to Roomba that means battery overheated but this happens even with a refurbished battery right out of the box. Any ideas? I’m not above taking it apart but I was hoping for a little direction. Does it have warranty? If not then I think the battery sensor is faulty. It must taken apart to change the sensor and see if that’s the issue....

Chosen Solution I completed the battery replacement per the guide, including plugging the little internal cables back in which was rather finicky. I have not yet snapped the case back together, since opening it was such a pain, but I tried powering up the phone. Results: Power-up button doesn’t seem to do anything by itself, even after holding it in for a whileConnecting power bank to lightning port lights up phone, shows monochrome apple logo, that goes out and comes back on about 5 times before booting phone....

Chosen Solution How do I control my iPad Mini 2 using a Windows 8.1 PC while the iPad is completely turned off? The same way you drive a car without starting the engine. You can’t. What are you trying to achieve if you don’t mind me asking?

Chosen Solution A little while back my A1534 decided not to boot anymore and I’m no longer getting any ding when I plug the device in. There had been no liquid spill nor a fall or drop. No LCI trip and the little led next to the battery connector is on. The power button is unresponsive and I’m unable to preform a SMC reset. If the computer is not booting and is unresponsive when you plug it in, the battery may be too old to effectively hold a charge anymore may need to be replaced....

Chosen Solution Hey Everyone, TL;DR - Can I disable the auto shut off feature? If so how? Let me paint a picture of my set up. It is quite cool tbh. I am using my A33 as kitchen speaker, but I wanted to use it via Google Home, so purchased a GoogleCast Audio device and plugged it into the aux jack. I keep the A33 connected to the power(with the battery in the “off”) position and only use the AUX input....

Chosen Solution Hello; I have upgraded my kids’ iMac Intel 21.5" EMC 2545’s with your guide to i7-3770s and maxed out the ram to 16gigs. Other than chipping the glass on one of the iMac while removing the dislay, yes it was the first attempt :/, all went smooth until I tried to turn them back on after reassambly. I’m getting half displays on both machines as attached. https://1drv.ms/v/s!AjPTCRNGsBVFpkS-WZGA… I’ve tried resetting the rams and so on but out of ideas....

Chosen Solution My Wii U tablet has cracked and isn’t visible on the right 70% of the screen. After reviewing the howto’s on this site, I looked up a replacement part and found this: http://dx.com/p/replacement-lcd-screen-f… I think this will solve my problem! My only question is, will I need to replace some sort of “touch screen overlay” in tandem with it? My controller still works 100% touch wise - even if I can’t see what’s on the bottom, the touch controls work on parts of the screen that are cracked/blank....

Chosen Solution Hello iFixit community, I am considering in buying a new 21.5” iMac 4k (2019). Considering Apple’s extreme charges for RAM and SSD upgrades, I want to upgrade it by myself. I wonder if it is possible with 2019 iMac 4k? If so, does the iFixit documentation for 2017 version guide me to do that? Cheers, Asil You’re ahead of the curve here! iFixit hasn’t done a teardown on the newest models as of yet as they haven’t been shipped....

Chosen Solution Hi, I replaced the screen to OEM Hard LED one. I have transferred data from original(cracked one) to new one. I was able to set FaceID up but I cannot use it to unlock the phone. I put genuine Apple screen with glass only replaced, transferred data from original one and the same FaceID doesn’t work. I put back cracked screen - surprise ! it works ! I tied 3 cracked original screens and it works on all of them....

Chosen Solution I have just repaired an iPhone 4 screen and afterwards I have a small 10mm oval in the top right hand side of the screen that shows slightly skewed colours. If the screen is black then then the small part will be brownish. Is this just an LCD fault? or could there be something I have done wrong in the repair? Andrew old question and answered for completion sake only....

Chosen Solution no sound coming through on right ear phone @mgm59 .. typically with no sound, it is indicative of a failed connection at the solder on the speaker itself, or a broken circuit in the wire connecting the speakers to the male adapter that plugs into your device. being that one side is functioning vs the other, id say more likely its speaker related connection more so than the cord itself....
