Apple MagSafe2 Power Adapter: riparazione connettore cavo alimentazione magsafe

Wed, 06 Nov 2024 03:40:25 -0700

Buongiorno! Esiste una guida per capire se il pezzo in foto è aggiustabile o meno? mi disturberebbe buttare il cavo quando credo si possa riparare una volta aperto e sistemati i cavi... ma non so come sia stato chiuso il connettore, se a pressione o incollato...

grazie in anticipo

Apple iSight Webcam: Perchè non funziona con Thunderbolt Firewire 800 e Adattatore 800-400

Wed, 23 May 2018 14:20:41 -0700

Collegato la webcam iSight Firewire a MacBook Air 11” 2011 con cavo Thunderbolt 800 9 pin e adattatore 400 6 pin

La spia della webcam si accende qualche attimo poi si spegne con il classico rumore della messa a fuoco.

Nel riepilogo di sistema la webcam non compare.

È un problema di software o di hardware? Qualcuno ha esperienza e risolto?

Grazie per l’attenzione e l’aiuto che potrete darmi.

Buona giornata.

Apple iPod Hi-Fi: Aux in non funziona, ma tutto il resto funziona correttamente.

Sun, 24 Sep 2023 12:23:18 -0700

Possiedo 2 Apple iPod Hi-Fi uno funzionante al 100% mentre l'alto funziona tutto correttamente ad eccezione dell'ingresso audio con il cavo.
Ho provato a sostituire la presa del jack e il cavo con quelli dell'altro speaker ma ma ancora non funziona.

Ho provato a scambiare la scheda dell'amplificatore (820-1770-A) e con quella funziona quindi deduco che il problema sia la scheda dell'amplificatore.

Visto che tutto il resto funziona mi chiedevo se ci fosse un modo di capire cosa nella scheda si è rotto e non lo fa funzionare.

Il connettore visivamente non sembra presentare danni così come il resto della scena non presenta danni evidenti.

Se qualcuno riesce a indicarmi qualche componente da sostituire oppure riesce a consigliarmi un'amplificatore compatibile per sostituirlo (gli amplificatori originali sono difficili da trovare e costano molto).
Se avete delle soluzioni per bypassare il problema vi sarei grato.

PS. io avevo pensato di collegare i cavi dell'AUX in all'ingresso denominato iPod dock sulla scheda ma non ho idea se la cosa possa funzionare e non so nemmeno come si faccia. Mi affido a voi.

Grazie.

Apple Cinema HD Display: Problemi con cinema display 30"

Tue, 03 Nov 2020 08:05:22 -0700

Buongiorno a tutti.

Ho un problema con il mio 30” cinema display. In breve, non posso più connettere al Mac Pro i cavi usb e firewire per replicarle dietro il monitor in quanto, appena tento di collegarle al MAc Pro, il monitor si spegne. Nessun problema se stacco i cavi usb e firewire. Ho letto un post del 2015 dove si invitava a provare a staccare i cavi usb e firewire per vedere se il problema si risolveva ma nulla. Appena collego usb e firewire il monitor si spegne così come il led. Qualcuno ha avuto lo stesso problema?

AirPort Time Capsule A1470: Time Capsule is overheating w/yellow flashing light

Tue, 14 Apr 2026 10:30:01 -0700

Has anyone successfully repaired a Time Capsule that's overheating all the time? The yellow light is always flashing and when I pull up AirPort Utility it says "this device may be overheating." The device does feel warm to the touch (not hot). I've called Apple and they say they can't fix it and won't replace it since it's not under warranty any longer. I'm considering cracking it open to see if cleaning out dust and whatnot might improve air circulation and fix the problem, but I'm curious if anyone else has done this before?

Apple Mighty Mouse: Mighty Mouse doesn't scroll down

Tue, 19 Aug 2025 09:14:39 -0700

The mighty mouse I use has been in use on various computers for a few years now.

I was using it to browse the web when the scrollball stopped scrolling down. It can still go up, left and right but when I scroll down it goes down and spins but there isn't the usual clicking noise and it doesn't do anything on-screen.

Can I fix it at all?

The Apple Wireless Keyboard (Aluminum) uses three AA batteries. One of the AA batteries in my keyboard is stuck inside due to corrosion.

Apple Thunderbolt Display: How can I fix my display blacking out intermittently?

Tue, 14 Apr 2026 22:13:09 -0700

I've had the Apple Thunderbolt Display for a little more than a year, and it has started to intermittently go black for a few seconds at a time. When it does, I usually lose connection to my usb devices connected through the display. If I let it go on, it blanks more and more frequently until the system kernel panics.

So far, I've tried cleaning the contacts with rubbing alcohol. This made them more visually attractive, but did not solve the problem.

Second, I tried using another macbook pro, but it had the same issue.

I've noticed that the thunderbolt connector heats up significantly when it's in use. I'm wondering if there's a heat-related issue that could be causing a broken connection in the electronics inside the connector. Any thoughts?

Apple Keyboard: Some keys stopped working on Apple Wired Keyboard

Sun, 30 Nov 2025 17:52:42 -0700

Hey guys!

Can anyone help?

I have an Apple Wired USB Keyboard since 2013 and yesterday some keys stopped to work.

I didnt pay much attention, thought it was a momentary USB glitch, replugged it, and it seemed to help.

But today the trouble returned.

Keys "8", "I", "K", and "," are not working. As you can notice, they're all in a straight line. So it feels like some contact line is dead/malfunctioning.

No, I didnt spill any liquid. Its perfectly dry.

Googled it. Many users report the same problem here and there, but not the real remedy.

Apple's answers are as useless as they should be, deemed to housewives, a la "Check if your house has electricity". :)

If you can give a tech-savvy advice, please do.

PS: If you're going to say "Go buy a new one" - thank you in advance. :)
