回复： PlayStation 3 often doesn't take in the disk in 2015年03月31日
Hello Maria! Great question! You may have to replace the whole drive, but before you go and do all that, try the procedure outlined in this thread first: How to realign blu-ray dirve Also, depending on the generation of PS3, you may just need to push the disk in further in order to get it to take the disk. On some models, there is a small IR sensor that senses when a disk has been inserted, and it starts the disk uptake process. This often fails. However, there is also a mechanical trigger for the disk uptake that starts when the uptake wheels get spread far enough apart. This only occurs when the disk is pushed in most of the way. Good luck, and let us know how it works out.
回复： Ripped off Charging Port=Trashed Galaxy Exhibit SCH-T599 Logic Board? 2014年10月20日
Hey there ali. It sounds like you pulled some of the leads off the circuit board. It's a common problem when desoldering ports, so don't feel bad. It is however, some pretty bad news for your phone. Without getting electrical contact back between the port and the board, you're in a pretty bad spot. You might be able to frankenstein it back together, however, with some fine copper wire and some soldering skills. Just run the wire from where it was supposed to go on the charging port to the lead, essentially bypassing the gap. Let us know what you decide to do and how it works out!
回复： Hi, item does not get worm in 60sec 2014年09月11日
Only ever microwave the iOpener for 60 seconds at at time! If you find that the iOpener isn't quite warm enough after the first microwaving, go ahead and put it back in for another 30 seconds. It should be between 160F - 190F after that, and totally usable.
回复： How to take out back glass parts 2013年01月25日
Yup, they're glued in place. Apple used some pretty serious adhesive to hold them in, but it's nothing that a heat gun wont soften. Picking them out from the back is not possible, so you have to heat them up then push them out from the inside. The main problem with removing them is that you have to remove just about every other component in the iPhone to get to them, which is a real pain.
回复： Wiil The iOpener works for the glass display replacement? 2012年11月06日
Hey Nacho. When the iOpener comes out of the microwave, it will be about 170 degrees Fahrenheit (~77 Celsius). We haven't tried it on a MacBook Pro yet, but I suspect it would work.
回复： Where do I clean if I got finger oil on my parts? 2012年08月10日
Hey Snowdog, This is a pretty common problem, and you're correct about the finger oil causing bluetooth to fail. There are a couple places that you should clean the contacts before re-assembly. While many of connectors in the iPhone use plug-and-socket connections, many just use spring pressure contacts. These pressure contacts are those which you should clean off. Here are a few: (1) Dock Connector Contacts (2) Near the vibration motor (double check this one, it is likely the culprit) (3) Grounding Pin Use some isopropyl alcohol or some Windex on a Q-tip or microfiber cloth, and you should be golden. Good luck, and let us know how it turns out.
回复： Loud PS3 fan. System overheats and shuts down after 2 hours 2012年08月10日
Hey Michael. It sounds like your playstation is having some cooling issues. The PlayStation is probably shutting down as a fail safe to prevent damage from overheating. I suggest taking the machine apart and cleaning it out. You would be surprised (grossed out) at the amount of dust that accumulates inside of game consoles, and that can be a serious detriment to cooling. While you are at it, pull the heat sinks off of the processors and replace the thermal paste. The factory thermal paste sometimes "dries out" and doesn't conduct heat as well as it used to. You can follow this guide to help you get to the processors.
回复： Broken LCD cable on 2011 iMac 2012年07月26日
Hey there Matthew. Unfortunately, the LCD cables are not consistent across iMac models. Also, the LCD cable is part of the LCD itself, so you would not be able to replace the cable independently. When you first turned the iMac on, was the display completely blank? Or was it just white? Sometimes it takes a while for the iMac to boot up after disassembly and during that time, the screen will just remain white.
回复： Need to replace/clean keyboard but cant take it out 2012年07月25日
Hey Ivan. Unfortunately, the keyboard and the upper case cannot be separated. As shown Upper case replacement guide, you have to replace them as a single unit.
回复： Wont charge after screen repair 2012年07月25日
Double check that your dock connector is plugged in all the way. Here is a link to the dock connector guide.

MacBook Pro 15" Retina Display Mid 2012 Teardown 2012年06月14日

Hey Scott. Those magnets are used to hold the rear cover close to the body of the MacBook Pro. The screws hold it in place around the perimeter, but the magnets keep the large aluminum panel from acting like a drum, flapping about and such. In the MacBook Air, Apple uses plastic clips to accomplish the same task.
PlayStation 3 Blu-ray Disc Drive Replacement 2011年02月10日

Every system that I have seen has had the ZIF connector, while some had tape over the connection as well. If your connectors are taped, be sure to remove the tape, then proceed with undoing the ZIF connector.
