Might be iOS 8 bug or the cable got problem..

Try:

- Use power socket instead of USB idk lol just try

- Use other lightning cable and see if problem still persist

- Use same lightning cable on other phone see if the problem pops out

Does the phone still charge though?

surprisingly the phone still charges everytime, I could try with another lightning cable but at the moment there is only one.

Power socket adapter is fine but perfer to charge by usb port 3.0 as there may not have avaialbe socket.

I have an iPod Nano 5G (one with camera) and its battery is dying.
Anywhere to replace it at a reasonable cost ?
Official Apple cost is about > 100 , I think.
Thanks

Hi guy,

I just ordered a mac air but have yet to open it. I am wondering if I could use it because I am waiting for the upcoming event to see if the new mac air would be released. And if it does, I wanna do a return haha.

Anyway, if there any failure test I should do to ensure my mac is fine and is it possible to just put my cs6 prog from my window desktop and transfer it into the mac?

Thanks!

- if you bought it from the apple online store, you have 14 days to return it
- what failure test are you looking for? OS X Mountain Lion: Use Apple Diagnostics or Apple Hardware Test
- CS6 prog from window desktop? you need the mac version of CS6 installed, unless you are trying to install windows on your mac with bootcamp or virtual machine.

Hi guys,

I have a mbp retina bought 5mths ago.
Since I do protect my mbp so i bought a cheaper mat to put under the mbp, so wont rub againt the table.

but who knows, ytd when i lift up the mbp, i notice that the 2 out of 4 black rubber like wore off or it become slimmer and cause my mbp to rub against the mat and cause many small dots of scratches/coating rub off.

so can i know whether is it able to replace the black rubbeR? since i dun think those small dots can b clean off already.

disappointed.

Unfortunately this article is not meant for Macbook Pro Retina - MacBook Pro: Bottom case foot replacement DIY instructions

Call in AppleCare and see if they have different DIY option for you or if they asked you to bring it in to an AASP, see if they can provide an exception to have those replaced.

OSX Yosemite is out

At work now, have anyone updated to it already? Is there a "combo update" for this since its a full os upgrade instead of minor patches?

 

[Geforce3]

updating it now at home, 5gb so it takes a while

Thanks for the update. Do let us know if you face any difficulties after upgrading as i recall there are devs commenting that there are some apps that don't work in yosemite during the beta phase.
