Just like your smartphone, your MacBook is probably one of your best friends. It’s hard to go through life without your laptop these days. Think of working or studying without it, but also paying bills, gaming or watching series, and much more. Because of this close relationship, they are used often, and therefore, it is also realistic that your MacBook gets damaged at some point. Fortunately, almost everything can be repaired!
One of the most common MacBook repairs we perform at The Fixables is a keyboard repair. Just about everyone drinks a cup of tea or coffee at his or her desk. Unfortunately, this also means that coffee or tea sometimes get poured over a keyboard. This means that sometimes a few (or a lot) of the keyboard keys get broken. This can make typing very difficult. Thankfully, The Fixables can solve this problem for you when you drop by. What to do? Turn off your MacBook immediately and come see us as soon as possible. Just know that rice is never the solution.
MacBook water damage? Repairing is possible!
It’s a different kind of surfing… Unfortunately, we also see water damage very often. For instance, people forget their laptops outside in the garden after working there. When it starts raining, your laptop can get water damage. Water is of course disastrous for your MacBook. Turn it off immediately and don’t try to recharge it. It will short-circuit your MacBook and that’s exactly what you don’t want. Now, it’s a race against the clock. Because the sooner you bring your device to us, the bigger the chance we can successfully repair it.
Replacing your MacBook screen
Something else we, unfortunately, see very often. A crack in the screen of your MacBook is more than just annoying. The screen protects the inside of your laptop from dust, water and
everything else you don’t want to get in there. Fortunately, we at The Fixables have a lot of experience with repairing screens and you can count on us.
Replacing your MacBook battery
Just like your smartphone, your MacBook battery will deplete sooner or later. This is perfectly normal. Every battery loses some of its capacity every time it gets charged. That’s just how batteries are designed. There are a few things you can do to preserve its capacity. But ultimately, its fate is set in stone. Of course, we at The Fixables know how to solve this problem. For a couple of tenners, you can have your battery replaced by a brand new one. Get in touch with us about replacing your battery!
It is perhaps one of the scariest things that can happen to you. Your hard drive gets damaged and you can no longer access your data. This is scary because people often have all kinds of important data stored on their MacBook. Maybe the latest version of your thesis is on your laptop and you’re afraid you’ve lost everything. What do you do now? Write down the last steps you took before losing your data. Then come and see us immediately and we will try to solve the problem for you.
Another super important part of your MacBook is your touchpad. But what if it doesn’t respond anymore, it shoots all over the place, or it falters? A very annoying problem. It makes using your laptop almost impossible. First, have a look in your settings at ‘trackpad’ (System preferences → Keyboard & Mouse → Trackpad). Maybe the problem is simply a wrong setting. Sometimes a wrong setting is what causes your touchpad to behave strangely. Is the problem still not solved? No problem! We know how to fix it. Come and see us and we’ll fix your touchpad.
Of course, there are many other things that can break down. For example, your camera, speaker, or lots of other things. Maybe you have no idea what is that is broken. Feel free to drop by or contact us. We’ll ask you a few questions to find out what’s wrong. This way, we can find out together what the problem is and how we can solve it. We are also happy to help you with more tips & tricks! For example, what you can do with your old laptop.
