I've lost a medium and a large one so far, and my other medium-sized earbud is on the verge of getting lost since it is very loose and thus affecting audio quality too.

I've found quite a lot of instructions to disassemble the iPhone 3G and q&a that involve the home button ... but nothing that really describes what is to be done to only do a replacement of the home button.

When I had the phone open to work on other things I saw the home button covered by some adhesive strips. Is it just that trivial - removing the strips, pull the button out and replace it, join together all things vice-versa?

Thanks,

The problem is, I broke the little gold antenna in half, and I lost one of the halves. It still detects wifi networks, but will not connect, and I've tried multiple networks.

Is there a replacement that can be found somewhere, or something else that can be used in it's place, such as foil? I've tried a gum wrapper already, but that did not work. The cheaper the solution, the better. Thanks!

*EDIT*

I tried a piece of a foil gum wrapper. My wifi works now. I'm not sure if the wrapper did it, but I know that I don't want to touch it, now that it works.

So I bought a replacement battery from dealextreme.com and installed it. I have done quite alot of these types of repairs before so was not worried. All the same I managed to break off the solder terminal for the white wire. I scratched the board back to the copper trace underneath and finished the battery installation ok (considering the mistake I had made).

The phone turned on fine, had 95% charge which dropped to 88% and seemed stable.

I put the phone on a AC Apple wall charger and left it for an hour to find the battery being depleted, even though the battery icon showed "Charging".

Overnight I left it on charge but the battery kept depleting and eventually the phone started cycling reboots over and over.

I've done a Home-Power hold reset - no help.

I've removed the SIM and has stopped the reboot cycle, but still will not charge.

The replacement battery had exactly the same part number on it as the old battery (an original Apple - P/N 616-0291) which I concede doesn't mean anything really since whoever made the replacement can print whatever they like on it.

Question - Why is the phone not charging the new battery, why is it repeatedly rebooting and how do I fix it? What exactly is the white wire for in the battery and is that the cause of this issue?

Thanks for your help

When tearing down the A1347 Server model, which hard drive is removed first, the master or slave?

Asked another way, which hard drive is closer to the Apple logo, the master or slave?

I would like to replace the master/main hard drive with an SSD hard drive while insuring default boot is correct.

At first, it was just the F6 key down to the N key that were not responding. Shortly thereafter, for seemingly no reason at all, more keys began malfunctioning. The entire row starting at A until L will trigger the key above or below at the same time (pressing A would result it AZ being pressed when observed in Keyboard Viewer).

I'm planning on selling this computer soon, and don't want to dump money into it unless necessary, though I also don't want to sell someone a shoddy laptop.

What can I do to determine a keyboard replacement would solve this issue before I order the part?

But if I changed the outer case with the Mac Mini 2009/2010 one, could I put back a DVD drive (or Blu-ray) inside ?

What would I need in addition to this outer case : cable ? support brackets ?

EDIT : just after posting (Thanks, Murphy !) I saw this post about the exact same subject.

However, this previous post does not answer 2 important questions :

- since it is possible to connect a second HDD in the Mac ("Mac Mini Dual Hard Drive Kit"), why cannot a SATA optical drive be connected to the mid-2011 motherboard, with the proper cable ?

- how bad is the "angling required to get in the optical drive bracket" ? Is it yet feasible ? Does it damage anything ?

After spilling some wine on my 4 year old SR MacBook Pro. The "." and "left/home" buttons aren't working anymore.

To get this problem fixit at my local Apple Reseller, it will cost me €300.

I can buy a replacement keyboard on eBay for around €30-40.

My MacBook Pro has a dutch/EU - US Intl. layout keyboard. The ones I found on eBay are all US. I don't care because the layout is almost the same.

But will it work in my MacBook Pro? Will OS X recognize the keyboard and change the layout?

I hope my question is clear enough to understand.

It now is charging when I plug it into a power outlet (which it wasn't doing before I replaced the connector). I charged it overnight, and now am at work and tried to connect it to my computer to Sync, but it doesn't appear as though the phone or the computer recognize the connection. The phone doesn't show the "charging" battery and doesn't show up in iTunes.

I have tried using other cables, different USB ports, and different computers, so I am 99.9% sure it is an issue in the phone itself.

Does anyone have any recommendations? Did I miss a connection somewhere? If it didn't charge at all, that would make sense to me. But, it charges from an outlet, just not via computer, and it doesn't connect to the computer either.

Thanks for your help in advance!

The battery life has seemed to degrade considerably faster than the original OEM battery. I try to maintain battery health with a discharge to ~15% and then fully recharge it at least once per month.

Over the past few days, the phone has consistently turned itself off during normal use while still reading as having greater than 50% battery life remaining.

Has anyone else seen similar issues with replacement batteries? If so, should I seek another replacement?

Obviously it's too early for any 2012 replacement parts to be available without buying directly from Apple (which I already found out would be about a $1200 fix for parts and labor). This machine's model number is A1286, the same as the 2010 and 2011 models.

I'm wondering if any of these parts be a suitable replacement from either 2010 or 2011 versions:

LCD Screen (only, no display assembly)

Complete display assembly

Top Case/Keyboard

I've heard that due to differences in the logic board layouts from year to year, the required length for the video cable can vary, which would be a non-starter. I'm hoping someone here at iFixit who has done the 2012 tear down might know!

Many thanks!

After using the computer for a couple hours I noticed the fan rpm never dipped below 6000 rpm. No processes were hogging the cpu (verified in Activity Monitor) and iStat displays temperature readings from all the sensors so I doubt I have an issue where the sensor became disconnected (current CPU temp is 113 F and fan speed is at 6000 rpm). I've also reset both SMC and PRAM to no avail.

Are there any steps I can take to make the new replacement fan behave normally?

I ordered a A1013 17" 820-1502-A LogicBoard for it that worked perfectly fine, but one of the Chips on it didn't work with the AirPort Card. Which is probably why it was only $85.

So my question is, is there more than 1 Type of Logic Board? Cause I know for a fact, that the original Logic Board wasn't a 820-1502, but I don't know what type it was.

So maybe someone could tell me a different type of Logic Board to install?

Thanks

Well that really didn't help. Let me give some more info.
