Frequently asked questions
Is it worth repairing an older 15-inch MacBook Pro?
Often, for the files or for light use. An SSD makes an A1286 usable again; on an A1398 a new battery and SSD go a long way.
Can you get the data off a 2011 MacBook Pro with a graphics fault?
Yes. Its drive is removable, so we can copy it even if the Mac won’t start.
How do I find my MacBook model number?
The A-number (for example A2337) is printed in small text on the underside. Apple menu > About This Mac shows the year and size.
