The models with this problem are from 2016 to 2019 and it is all due to a design flaw that is called the butterfly keyboard. Apple states that only a small percentage of their MacBooks are faulty. This claim is simply not true, as we have seen our fair share of not working keyboards from these models. All MacBooks with this defective keyboard will eventually stop working, so it is important to get your keyboard replaced by Apple while the recall program is still in effect.

What do we think? We personally think this is a great move for Apple, as it is only benefit us. We the consumer have more options to choose from. Apple will produce cutting edge movies and TV shows, because they have to, they cannot survive on creating mediocre. They also know that if this new app is unsuccessful it will hurt their reputation. As for price, I think Apple will have to find some sort of bundle deal similar to Amazon Prime to offer to customers. Customer are willing to pay, as long as they feel that they are getting value. I do enjoy watch movies and TV shows from time to time, but if it will interfere with my finances it is not worth it. Their just too many alternatives that are free (YouTube) or more affordable like Netflix that I can turn too. They also announced that they will be entering into the gaming scene. Apple Acarde subscription will let you play 100+ new games. These games can be played on the Apple TV, iPhone or iPad. The new service will be available through family sharing, which is a huge plus for families. Apple card is another interesting service that Apple will be coming out with. Imagine no longer paying for late fee and over the limit fee? That would be pretty sweet. The card will feature benefits like 3% daily cash back on purchases directly from Apple, 2% daily cash back on anything you pay for what Apple Pay virtually, and 1% daily cash back on purchase using the physical card. I think this will be successful, because most young people are always looking build their credit. I personally prefer to pay with cash and this has very little interest to me. While Apple News+ has been around for a while, they will be adding 300+ magazines digital content and newspapers like LA Times and Wall Street Journal to the platform. For avid reader, this sounds like a great bundle. Apple new streaming services will be coming to us in the fall. Which services are you the most excited about?

Remove the liquid Use a dry, absorbent cloth or paper towel to gently wipe away as much liquid as possible from the surface of your MacBook.

Let it dry completely After using the hairdryer or fan, let your MacBook dry completely before turning it back on. This can take several hours, so be patient and do not rush the process. 5. Turn it on Once your MacBook is completely dry, turn it on and check if it is working properly. If there are any issues, take it to an authorized Apple service provider for repair.
