My Problem

My original Hard Drive (250 GB) was showing signs it would soon crash and die forever.

My Fix

Changing out hard drives was pretty quick and easy, especially since I ordered all of the correct tools... it's all about the tools!

My Advice

Go slow, watch the video to aid with the step-by-step directions (but don't rely solely on the video), and be ready to ask for help when disconnecting the LCD screen.

My Problem

The power supply on an old iMac G5 20" of mine failed. Computer can't work without that!

My Fix

A quick trip to iFixit identified the part within a couple of minutes, as well as the necessary tools. A few days later of shipping time, and everything arrived. I downloaded the iFixit app onto my iPhone to walk through the repair, but it was hardly necessary. New power supply installed and computer working happily 15 minutes later. Thanks!

My Advice

Great process. Thanks for helping.

My Problem

The SuperDrive in my iMac crapped out, but luckily I still had an older model that I had installed in my old PowerBook, also using iFixit, which I had kept after giving my dead laptop to the recyclers.

My Fix

Well, my old white iMac was a breeze to get into and mess about in, although the repair was a success, I was amazed at how unfriendly the new iMacs are compared to the old ones in terms of getting inside them.

My Advice

I didn't sit the SuperDrive in its plastic frame correctly the first time so after I had everything back together the drive couldn't eject discs because a bit of the frame was in the way. I had to dismantle and reassemble the iMac twice. Make sure everything is seated properly before putting it back together!

My Problem

My iMac 27 Inch i5 always frozen...

My Fix

Very well, I managed to happily. It 'just install "Fan control" fan set at maximum speed and the problem is solved!. For an excess of zeal, oh then apart my iMac 27 to carry out additional cleaning.

My Advice

No, nothing special

My Problem

The computer was knocked off a table, killing the had drive (and denting the floor)

My Fix

The replacement guide was excellent, and the repair took less time than I expected. The only awkward thing was putting together those tiny wire connectors

My Advice

My wife is much happier with the 2TB drive (vs. 500 GB)

My Problem

First, i've found that the imac g5, switch on, two seconds and off... so i checked the blogs, faq, forums, etc, and found that the power supply was the usual suspect. I love this computer, 6 years of service without stop, without problems, nowadays my wife uses it to surf the net, email, etc... so I made a consideration about this, check prices... you can't buy a new computer as good as it for only 150 $.... so go for it.

The laptop had become very noisy lately, so I decided to chane the fan to fix this

My Fix

everything, with ifixti guides was ok.

My Advice

Just take care when pulling out the power supply is not as easy as it seems.
