MacMedics techs have now also seen the issue in our lab first hand. The buzz on the Internet seems to point an issue that may […]

You might recall all of the MacBook Pro battery buzz from a few years ago. Our pictures of “bloated” and “swollen” batteries were ALL over the Internet. We still get tons of web hits on the original post about the problem. Here’s some of the coverage our pictures from 2006 generated: http://www.macobserver.com/ http://arstechnica.com/ http://www.macintouch.com/ On […]
It’s hard to always know what damages an iPod Video or iPhone LCD screen. We’re constantly amazed at the patterns that are created as LCD gets destroyed. Since most of the iPods we work on are mailed in to us, we often don’t get the story behind a damaged iPod. We’ll ask our clients that […]
We’ve commented on the Internet based myth regarding the iPod “click of death” several times before. According to Internet lore, you can “whack” your iPod on the edge of a table or desk in order to fix a clicking hard drive problem. We’ve always felt that this was a bad idea, and could result in […]

It was our pleasure to help this client out of a bad spot with her MacBook. “I’m just writing to express my gratitude for your unbelievably efficient and generous service. I called on a Thursday night (after a consult at an Apple store) with a damaged hard drive. I was under extenuating circumstances, as I […]
Now more than ever it makes good sense to repair your broken iPod rather then replace it. Here at MacMedics and ipodmedics.com we’ve seen a pretty steady stream of folks looking to have their iPods repaired. The iPod is designed to be pretty much a disposable piece of electronics, as Apple has very few decent […]
Here’s two pictures of another MacBook sent into MacMedics from Iraq. Our last Iraq MacBook was a big success, as we were able to save the data and replace the hard drive in short order. You can read about that data recovery case here: http://www.macmedics.com/testimonials.htm Sadly, in this case the hard drive was toast. We could […]
Maybe you’re tired of waiting in line for Macintosh service. Perhaps you’ve grown weary of the “service” advice that just tells you just to buy a new Mac without a full investigation into your existing problem. Is dragging your 24” iMac or MacPro though the Mall for warranty service not your idea of a good […]
