    MBA 2015 Keycaps problems

    Hi, I've a MacBook Air 2015 for my son and I bought it abroad for cheap. I just need to replace the keycaps to switch the keyboard in French. I bought on Aliexpress a bundle of French keycaps compatible with MPA 2015 and MBP 2015. But when I tried to replace the keycap, they are not the same. So...

    Severe bug in Sonoma: Save/Open dialog triggers bouncing icon, app must be manually brought back to front

    Sonoma introduced a severe bug that affects all apps: If you trigger a Save dialog one way or another, the app's icon starts bouncing in the Dock and the app isn't the frontmost process anymore. That is, it doesn't respond to keyboard until you manually bring the app back into focus by either...

    I was in an accident when my tour bus I was on overturned off a bridge and my MacBook Pro (and everything else I owned) was lost in a river (Everyone was ok). I’m in Iceland and found a wonderful little store that had the exact model - 32GB with 4TB. It was an Apple licensed store, not a...

    M2 MacBook Air mushy key help

    My MacBook Air M2 has developed a mushy key. The 'L' key. Sometimes when I'm typing, the L doesn't show up because it needs slightly more pressure to register. I think a crumb of monster munch (roast beef) may be in there. I have no AppleCare, but it's within warrantee. The problem is a trip...

    Repair delays - anyway way to expedite?!

    I put my MacBook Pro M1 into repair on the 3rd January at Sydney Apple Store due to the keyboard failing. Was told it would be completed by the 11th January (simple top section replacement) so I figured it was worth doing so I could have it for the rest of my stay in Aus until the end of the...

    in iPadOS 16, how do you get the big keyboard?

    On Apple’s website, it says that to get the keyboard in iPadOS, you need to pinch outwards with two fingers on the floating keyboard. But this doesn’t work for me in iPadOS 16. So how do you get to the big keyboard?

    iPad What's the difference between iPad Air and iPad10?

    Apple can just simply combine the Air and 10gen... The usb-c and Apple Pencil with lightning port is very confusing(Too inconvenient to charge) . Still keeping a 3dot connector at the bottom edge and making a new Microsoft surface keyboard is also weird, thus the vanilla iPad can't use the Magic...

    Preventing "shiny keys" on MacBook Pro

    Hey all! I have a 14-inch MBP that I like, but I've noticed that some areas of the keyboard have already started to show some shininess - even with diligent cleaning. I know Apple doesn't recommend keyboard covers for MacBooks, but I'm wondering if anyone has tried decals/stickers on keys to...

    Other Macbook pro: Fixing loose/wobbly keycaps

    It's not a well-known issue, but there have been a few reports of macbook pros (2010 - 2015) having loose or wobbly keycaps. Now this isn't something you would really notice unless it bothered you (especially since you would acclimate to it over time), but since I couldn't find any information...

    Hello folks. I have been searching around for a possible topic that mentions any dust issue with the keyboards of Macbooks. I noticed something that I have lots of dust particles under the keyboard buttons of my 2021 MBP 14". Do you think it can be a problem after some time, so do I need to use...

    Dead Apple A1016 Bluetooth Keyboard. Is there a way to revive it?

    The title might be a bit misleading, but let me explain. Two months ago, a friend of mine gave me an Apple A1016 keyboard, that he got for 5€. I couldn't pair it with anything at first, but I soon found out that I have to type in a "secret" PIN (0000 in my case), before I enter the pairing...
