Crashed... and CRAPTASTIC PIC! by marlboromaam

Crashed... and CRAPTASTIC PIC!

Yep! Trying to find out where I can get it fixed here in Columbia, SC. Probably will have to catch up on uploading when it's fixed, if it's fixed. In the meantime, on a strange computer and will try to catch up on your pics tonight and tomorrow as long as I am able. Fine thing to come home to right after the periodonist this morning.
Ugh, not good. Good luck!
June 13th, 2012  
I hope you can get it fixed Maggie! Since I've never owned an Apple I have no idea if there are many who work on them locally.
June 13th, 2012  
Oh, so sorry about the computer and the periodontist. NOT FUN on either count.
June 13th, 2012  
Bummer!
June 13th, 2012  
Because the periodontist isn't enough fun all by itself.
June 13th, 2012  
Uh-oh! Sorry. Hope it's nothing serious.
June 13th, 2012  
Uh oh
June 13th, 2012  
I am sorry about your computer, Maggie. What did it do or not do? What are you using meantime? Hope you had good news at the Periodontist. I hope you can find a good, honest and reasonable person to fix it for you. Wish we lived closer as I would volunteer my son to help. Hugs if they help!!
June 13th, 2012  
I hope you can find a fixer. Good luck with everything right now.
June 13th, 2012  
Oh, no! Good luck!
June 13th, 2012  
oh no! wish you were here - my husband loooooves fixing computers (especially loves macs!)
June 13th, 2012  
o no...two really painful experiences! best of luck
June 13th, 2012  
That is not a good day. Today is Machine Day (not Broken Machine Day). It's also Red Rose Day so I am sending you one, in writing anyway, to try and make your day a little better!
June 13th, 2012  
Ah jeez. What a bummer. I hope this rights itself quickly for you.
June 13th, 2012  
Oh, poor Apple - the Mac experts can generally fix anything but over here it takes at least a week!
June 13th, 2012  
ouch… mines been slow lately… fingers crossed here. I hope it is something that's easily fixed. Is it under warranty?
June 13th, 2012  
Hope you get your computer up and running soon! My old computer was going out on me and I got a new one last weekend. I am still transferring files to the new system. Computers!
June 13th, 2012  
Oh Maggie. So sorry, went through the same thing not too long ago. Really sucks!
June 13th, 2012  
Oh no! Hope you get if fixed soon!
June 13th, 2012  
Oh Maggie, so sad to hear. Hope things can get fixed with minimal cost.
June 13th, 2012  
Not my favorite...
June 13th, 2012  
awful news! amazing how much we get used to them, huh? hope you are all back to normal soon!

Sorry for the mass reply! Still trying to catch up on all your pics. Looks like an all nighter and windoze machines and I don't get along at all! Thank you for the good wishes for my iMac! I guess I'll know more tomorrow when I can hopefully talk to somebody!

@darsphotos Do you think you son could talk me through some possible fixes? I'd be glad to call!

@laurentye Do you think your husband could talk me through some possible fixes? I could message you my phone number on Facebook!
June 13th, 2012  
@marlboromaam Just talked to my son and he said if it were my computer, which is the same as yours, he would google the problem or go to better yet, he said to go to - IFIXIT.COM. I put this in caps in case you have a small screen. He would go to the problem on this site and try to fix it. You have to open your computer and it is made so differently than PC's are but he has had success with fixing electronics on this site. Feel free to call when you get this if you like, not sure he can be of more help.

Have a glass of wine, and call Apple in the morning. Dream of angels :)
June 13th, 2012

June 13th, 2012

June 13th, 2012  
@deburahiru I love your comment and had to pipe in here.
June 13th, 2012  
@marlboromaam I wish you luck and my son is off tomorrow, so if you want to or need to call, please do. Meantime, I am with Deb, have a glass of wine and may have to call Apple in the morning if all else fails. Pleasant dreams.

Mine Crashed Last year i had over 40,000 pics on it i brought it in and had them download all of my pics to a external hard drive and it started working again...I dont know if that is your problem but pics take up alot of space!! Gods Speed Maam!!
June 13th, 2012  
I brought it to Best Buy and them Geeks fixed it for me!! :)
June 13th, 2012  
Great point by Ellen, if you do not have backup for your photos, I would make sure you can save those first of all and if that is possibly the problem that would be an easy fix. Then backup after that all of the time. I back up my computer every day to an external hard drive.
June 13th, 2012  
@darsphotos So do we - hard drives are a dime a dozen now!
June 13th, 2012  
@pawar_ramesh @sanfil Thank you, Ramesh and Sandra! I hope it won't be too bad!

@ellimae They wouldn't touch it at Best Buy. Maybe it won't be too bad!
June 13th, 2012  
oh no!! hope it will be fixed soon!
June 13th, 2012  
Ack! Sorry to hear about your computer! I hope you can get it fixed quickly.
June 13th, 2012  
Oh no :( Sorry to hear that Maggie, I really hope you can get it fixed quickly.
June 13th, 2012  
Oh no! Such a pity! Wish you good luck with it!
June 13th, 2012

June 13th, 2012

June 13th, 2012  
@pointnshoot28 Thank you, Donna! You are too sweet! Hope it's on the mend sometime today, if I can just talk to the right people!
June 13th, 2012  
Sorry to hear about your computer problems. That's the worst! Recently had some problems after losing power several times during a storm but got everything back running again. Good luck!
June 13th, 2012  
That's horrible..hope you find somewhere to get it fixed!
June 13th, 2012  
Sorry about the computer problems. We have come to depend on these machines too much in our lives. Hope they'll mend it for you as early as possible.
June 13th, 2012  
Ugh, not good =( hope you get it back up and running soon!
June 13th, 2012  
Pam
Oh no!! There is nothing worse then computer problems. I hope you get it fixed soon.

June 13th, 2012  
What a pain times two. Fingers crossed it gets fixed soon and cheaply!!
June 13th, 2012  
Tough day....good luck!
June 13th, 2012

June 13th, 2012  
What a lousy day.
Hope you have a repair buy around you. And I am not fond of a periodontist either.
June 13th, 2012

Sorry, again for the mass reply! Thank you all for the well wishes and comments! Still on a strange puter trying to keep up with your pics when I can. No word on my iMac yet. Hoping to hear today or in the morning. Please keep your fingers crossed for me!
June 14th, 2012  
Macs are odd machines. I thought mine had crashed and sent it for repair and the guy said nothing was wrong with it and it had magically started working while it sat in the repair shop. Lets hope your Mac is scared of repair men too! Hope its better soon!
June 14th, 2012  
Oh no...that's no good
June 14th, 2012  
@dishaparekh176 @paulien Thank you for your kind comments. Still have not heard. Hoping to hear before tomorrow afternoon.

June 15th, 2012

June 15th, 2012
