Hi all,
Just wanted to see if anyone knows if there’s any software that can actually recover corrupted photos? There’s tons of click farm articles around but after trying 20+ bits of software and all of them doing jack I’m starting to think it’s not possible. I did find one that semi worked...

Hi,
quick question for the a1278 can you use any sata ssd for them or do you need to use a particular model? I know the a1502/a1466 you have to use a transcend jet stream otherwise you will have sleep issues, so I wanted to make sure the a1278 isn’t similar.

Hi all,
we’ve got a 2021 MacBook Pro 14 inch in with coffee damage. There was not really any corrosion luckily just a bit of sticky residue over the passives around the hdmi area. I cleaned all that up checked and there seem to be no shorts on the areas with the liquid residue. Caps aren’t...

Hi All,
Just wanted to see if I can get some assistance on a A1502 820-4924A I'm working on. Charger I'm using is a 85W magsafe 2 (straight from the wall not through a bench PSU) bought and used on two 3437s I was trying to fix so that should not be the issue.

Hi all,
i bought another donor board off eBay to have a look at last week. 3437 which has no PP3V42 or PPbus shorts. In fact PP3V42 is present but I’m not getting a green light on the charger. There is sever corrosion on C3740, R3741 and R3742. U3740 looks ok though but I’ll probably replace it...
Hi all,
I need some assistance with a 820-01598-A. The board was left on the roof of the previous owners car and he drove off forgetting it was there and drove over it. I bought it off him and when I opened it up it was still running, no screen activity though probably because it was shattered...
