Chosen Solution Is the Mid 2014 15 Inch MacBook Pro Screen compatible with the Late 2013 15 Inch MacBook Pro Screen? I want to do a screen swap. Thanks Yes! Apple used the same display between the Late 2013 and the Mid 2014 models. Make sure you don’t have the Early 2013 model as that display is different from the Late 2013/Mid 2014 systems.

Chosen Solution I was sitting at my desk running word and safari while my mac was plugged in to the official apple charger. It was charged to 80% when it randomly shut off while I was typing a sentence in word. It is now unresponsive, will not turn on at all even when an SMC reset is attempted. The genius bar technician was stumped, he said it has nothing to do with the battery and might be a issue with the motherboard, but I haven’t had any previous issues....

Last one meant that I could not access the internet. Dell support have been singularly unhelpful. I finally did a factory reset and have it now working.

Nothing happens when I press the power button. You can take it apart again and see if you find anything along the way....

Chosen Solution My uppercase is damaged on the sides and corners and that caused the lowercase to not fit well when you close it . At some point my laptop just stopped working and a repairs man told me that it’s a chip in the logic board that got electricity and went crisp. And since my uppercase and lowercase dont close well , there is no good grounding of electricity and this could happen again anytime… Would that be true ?...

Chosen Solution I’ve been scratching my head over this one for a while, around about five months ago the audio on my LOGIK L22FE14(A) TV stopped working. I have tried test after test, plugged in headphones, microphone headset, HDMI to a PC with the sound settings set to the TV. I’ve done countless factory resets and checked the s.mode and mute on the control yet it seems like nothing works.
