Logo cracked apple and damage to housing, it will prevent the Mac work

the logo of apple on my Mac mini was brutally assaulted by my three year old. Leaving the logo on the top of the box completely cracked. The Mac has been absent at the time. My question is, will it still work? I have not tried to start it upward, wasn't sure if I should. I am careful enough that I work from home and obviously the Mac contains all my work files (although I have backup, time capsule) I still would rather not have to invest in a new Mac and if the hard drive can be saved, it would be ideal.

im hoping that the Apple is simply casing and the material below is protected.

the mac itself is not based on the structural integrity of the envelope itself, even though the case has been removed the CCP wired to the hd and PSU should still work correctly

But if the impact caused the case to yield, also due internal bed or bleeding of the pcb or copper tracks broken bit it wouldn't work

and if the housing on the inside of the elbows to something low and short circuit, if it was me I give it a try, would be expensive to fix and it turn out to be a problem cosmetic only, as the repair people still requires a payment for their hours

  • Update Windows Installer is dead & now: 0x0000007B blue screen (0x80399BB0 0 x 0000034 0x00000000 0x00000000) AND a fix will prevent the system from starting.

    I was installing updates of windows and the computer is dead in the middle of it.  When I turned it back on it brought me to a blue screen with error codes: 0x0000007B (0x80399BB0 0 x 0000034 0x00000000 0x00000000).  It prompted me to do a system restore or to get to the system recovery, however it shows that there is no available restore points (even though I know that there are a bunch of them... because I checked this before I tried to make the updates of windows).  I went into the system recovery & the scan of my system with a scan of the additional memory, and there is nothing wrong with my real hardware.  The error recovery of the system that was given to me after the scan of my system is "a fix prevents the system to start.".  I looked at different positions in line with methods to get around this, but none of them does not seem to work.  Vssadmin does not appear on my system to try to use it again.

    I also tried cela http://social.answers.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/vistarepair/thread/8b3e2550-c174-486f-b5dc-98260abc05f9, but as I mentioned before all my restore points have disappeared and when I try not to make method 4 there is no pending.xml file and these registry entries do not exist: HLKM\Offline Components\AdvancedInstallersNeedResolving, HKLM\Offline Components\PendingXmlIdentifier.

    I'm almost done try all this and ready to make a fresh Windows... Install but I hate to really do this knowing that everything was working fine before all this & my hardware is fine... If I could just figure out how to get rid of this darn update all this hangs then all would be well.  Anyone have any suggestions?

    Thanks in advance,

    Hello

    When a computer dies in the middle of an update, it often corrupts many system files leaving no other choice than to reinstall. This is why it is always recommended that laptops/notebooks be connected when you install updates. If Windows was trying to replace a critical system file when the power is off, there are very little that you can do to fix it. If possible, start with a system for the Recovery Console disk and try running "sfc/scannow" to correct or replacement of the damaged system files, but does not satisfy, you are faced with a relocation.

    Hi Snoopy65,

    Welcome to the Microsoft Answers site!

    Perform a system restore and then try to install each updates manually one by one. Each time that you install the update, restart the computer. Take note of the update that is causing the problem and let us know. We will be in a better place to help you if we know the exact update which is causing the problem.

    To run the system restore

    1. Click Start, type system restore in the search box, and then click System Restore in the list programs.

    If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type your password or click on continue.

    2. in the System Restore dialog box, click on choose a different restore point and then click Next

    3. in the list of restore points, click a restore point created before you started having the problem, and then click Next

    4. click on finish

    Note: When you perform the system restore to restore the computer to a previous state, programs and updates that you have installed are removed.

  • I can't connect to my mac because the SHIFT key is down. Then he showed the top letter and can not connect... The mac is also overheating. I went to the apple store and they said that they cannot fix and need to send to the factory. Connection of same slo

    I just used my mac. I bought it on January 2014.

    A few months ago I couldn't connect to my mac more. There is nothing special on my mac to record.

    He was showing the wrong password when I tried to connect to my mac. It is overheating sometimes without help.

    So, I brought it to the apple store and they said that the shift key is down and therefore superior letter is all the time. and they could not help me open on the inside. Apple store guys suggested me to display somewhere or send it to the factory.

    My question is

    (1) what should I do

    (2) if I send to the factory or should go to the repair shop.

    you guys have an idea what the problem with my mac?

    I suggest you send to the factory, or if you have an apple authorized dealer / repair shop to fix the SHIFT key first, then a glance as to why the fan is still running hot.

    Maybe something has damaged the keyboard (shift key) area and also the fan internal.

    You can't have something special on the computer, but I'd always spend extra money to repair.

    The sooner, the better.

  • Premiere Pro CC 2016 does not work properly and I can't go back to the last working version?

    Everything was fine so I've upgraded to the latest version (2016.3?)

    The reading was nervous or uptight altogether and vomit constant errors.

    I use first commercially and only can afford to be in any way buggy.

    I started the next version down again (2015) which seems actually much earlier than 2016 previous version I had used successfully? 77

    Now all my projects will not open because they were modified in a newer version!

    I'm on a dv7 HP ENVY which worked without problems on all other versions of first CC for more than two years.

    I've seen others complain how buggy the last CC is which is very disappointing for a commercial tool paid that I relay on so many things.

    At this point, I would be happy to know how to install 2016.2 and not in 2015. It worked well for me on 2016.2 & I have no confidence in 2016.3

    Thank you

    Is there a way I can go back to instead of 9.0 9.1? The CC app does not give me this option?

    You go back to 9.0, then download/install the 9.1 patch:

  • The Mac cannot connect to iCloud extremely disturbing and annoying pop up

    I get this pop up and I can't fix it:

    The Mac cannot connect to iCloud due to a problem with "myappleid".

    Preferences iCloud open on this issue.

    Two buttons - Later and iCloud preferences...

    If I click later, he reappeared in the minute, sometimes a second later. It is a big problem because the functionality of the command does not work. He also grabs focus, no matter what I do - I watch full-screen movies, writing in a web form, play games, out of a keynote with a client presentation. Very, very frustrating. Not the kind of behavior I've seen in Windows 2000

    If I click on iCloud preferences I receive a request to enter my Apple ID password in the Panel of the iCloud system. I have enter my password and get an error not found Keychain with the message box:

    Impossible to find a keychain to store "281711789."

    Two buttons - Cancel and reset to the default values

    If I click Cancel the previous password box returns "an unknown error has occurred." The problem goes away, but I have the original pop up within minutes.

    If I click on Reset to Defaults, I get a very scary message:

    Are you sure you want to reset your

    Keychain? This will delete all your saved

    Passwords, keys and certificates. You

    It is not possible to undo this operation.


    Two buttons - Undo and Redo


    Cancel takes me to the first problem, regular and extremely annoying and disruptive noise upwards.


    Reset is not an option! I have an ecosystem whole apple, phone, office, laptop and iPad. I need to fix my keychain but don't know what's wrong with it or how to fix it. I can open Keychain Access. I don't know if it is possible to save a set of keys and to reimport?

    I had my vehicle in Service several times because my Iphone 6s does not synchronize with the Bluetooth in the car.  Engineers contacted GM Apple and informed there is a problem with the sync Apple products now that Apple updated to IOS 9.2.  I'm sure that there are many users who has the same problem.  Can you tell me when I can expect a fix for the problem.

    Thank you

    9.2 IOS works very well with my Chevy.  So apart from the fact that nobody here knows if everything when Apple plans to do something... or even recognize it, why not tell us what youv'e done troubleshooting.
