MAC REPAIR


Hi, you are a Mac. Macs are clean, sophisticated, high-end, well built, packed with great features and look great. Unlike you, however, Macs are computers. In comparison to all of us though, Macs are made up of the same basic internal parts as all other computers. The main difference between a Mac and a PC are the programs running on the hardware. Windows and Mac OS are different in user interface, how each program runs, as well as file structure. Besides the sleek design, this is where the Mac is vastly different than a PC. Most users will find the ease of use of the Mac to be preferable, where using a Mac means things just work.


Still a Computer


Computers are computers, so when it comes to computer repair, we see Macs too. And we do Mac repair!

We’ve seen it all and are specialists in Mac hardware and repairs. We even repair iPhones, iPads, iPods and Mac Mini’s! It’s all about the same basic components; the case, hard drive, memory, CPU, and power supply, and making sure that everything is configured to work optimally. If you are having a problem with your Mac, be it either a hardware issue that is causing your otherwise speedy Mac to slow down, or a software issue where you are getting odd uncommon errors, please give us a call and talk to one of our experienced technicians about how we can help you. And feel free to check out our other menu items specific to the Mac you own.


iMac Repair


The iMac is one of Apple’s leading desktop products. It is an “all-in-one” computer. This means the iMac has all the core components built into a single device. The space saving design is great for portability, style and access to cabling. And when it comes to computer repair, the all-in-one design is fairly easy to get at the individual components, even if it’s not so easy to work on them.

Being all-in-one means the hard drive, processor, motherboard, memory, power supply, nearly everything a normal computer has is built onto a single frame. It offers desktop computing power with laptop compactness. When disassembling the iMac, the case splits open to reveal the interior. Unfortunately, the design makes repairing individual components slightly more difficult. To get in there, usually a lot of cabling, sensors, and a wide array of screws need to be kept mindful of.


We have fixed the following iMac problems and other one-off cases:

• Failing hard drive
• Mac data recovery
• Bad power supply
• Broken or dim LCD screen
• Broken USB ports
• Bad motherboard / logic board
• Bad CD / DVD / BluRay drive, Hardware and software upgrades


The iMac has come a long way. If you have an older iMac G3 or G6, or if you have a newer 27″ iMac which is having some problems, we can help you out. The most common issue we see with these iMacs are overheating issues and bad hard drives. The iMac is a good machine and needs only a little maintenance to keep it running in good condition for years. If you run into any problems, please give us a call and we will be happy to help you out.


MacBook Repair


The original MacBook, which is distinguishable due to sporting a white or black case, was one of the best selling Macs. As they are now older, we see plenty of them in for Mac repair. Most older laptops have hard drive issues or screen problems, and the MacBook is no different. The MacBook was the first series to use Intel based processors, which with the added power, overheating issues have become common. As the MacBook is no longer a main Apple product and has been replaced with the MacBook Pro, support for these devices has dwindled. Rest assured, however; we can repair any MacBook no matter the model, and do so locally right here in our store.


We are experts in:

• MacBook disassembly

MacBook Air Repair


The MacBook Air is the most sleek, stylish Mac to date. With its ultra-thin design and light weight, it is easy to carry around. Many laptop users find that their laptop slowly becomes a desktop due to the hassle of carrying it around. With the MacBook Air, you get enough power to run everyday applications and the ease of use to want to keep it with you at all times. When it comes to Mac repair, the MacBook Air requires much more attention to detail to get things done correctly. Everything is fitted so precisely in the MacBook Air that you really need experience with these devices to get the repair done right the first time. Since the MacBook Air comes with a solid state hard drive, we rarely see hard drive issues, and most repairs involve the LCD screen replacement, liquid spills, or fixing cosmetic issues like a damaged keyboard or case. We have also had some weak battery performance out of some which have required us to replace the MacBook Air battery. And when it comes to software, we are great at getting everything set up on your MacBook Air so your email and apps run perfectly.

MacBook Pro Repair


For power computing on a laptop, the MacBook Pro is a finely manufactured workhorse. The current design includes a strong aluminum unibody and a good number of ports, including a Thunderbolt port. The processors are Intel based and top of the line, and the other components are high end as well. Because the design of the MacBook Pro is entirely up to Apple, they have figured out solutions for almost every issue the laptop might have. In general, as one of the more solid built computers, there are very few issues that affect the MacBook Pro. The main Mac repair requests we receive usually deal with software, and although we’ve seen broken LED screens, bad hard drives, and the occasional cosmetic issue, these laptops are made to last. For all those features, the MacBook Pro comes with a price tag. That’s why when something goes wrong, it’s almost always better to get it fixed. With our many years of experience working on Macs of all kinds, you can be sure we will repair your MacBook Pro right the first time.

Mac Mini Repair


The Mac Mini is a very flexible computer. It is capable of so much yet has a compact, unassuming size. The size is a little daunting until you realize you get the full power of most computers without the extra bulk. This is accomplished by using some of the more compact components to build this mini Mac. For one, the Mac Mini uses laptop hard drives instead of normal desktop-sized hard drives. The memory is laptop sized as well, so the overall space required is much less than a desktop. To round it out, the power supply is external, taking that bulky piece of hardware out of the picture. Repairing Mac Mini’s are much like repairing most desktops, except the enclosure is much smaller. Users also have found that the Mac Mini’s mounting capability is very desirable, allowing them to mount their computer to a wall, or the use the Mac Mini as a server.

Mac Pro Repair


The Mac Pro is the Mac desktop computer. More than that, it is usually a fully loaded, media creating monster. Many professional graphic, video, and audio artists use the Mac Pro as their computer of choice. This is due to the steadfast reliability and the extreme power that is packed into the aluminum tower & mini tower. The Mac Pro is the most customizable of the Apple products, and is usually a step ahead of the curve offering more memory, hard drive storage, and processing power than most out of the box PCs. Being custom designed and manufactured, along with all Apple products the Mac Pro just works. When repairing a Mac Pro, the main issue is data recovery. This is because so many professionals work on these devices, and when those hard drives fail, getting the data back is essential. We understand how important that data is, and make sure to take every step to get that data back safely. Other Mac repair issues we run into are overheating, especially with some of the memory configurations which produce lots of heat, slightly related fan failures or loud noises, and video card failures or overheating.
