Testimonials

Keith managed to get me a late 2008 MacBook Pro component at very short notice, which was extremely helpful. Supplied LHS fan for 15” MacBook Pro Ali Mark Oswestry, Shropshire

Over several years, and at least 3 refurbished Macs books as well as a major repair on my pre-Intel desktop dinosaur, I have been very happy with Keith’s technical skill; dedication to trouble shooting; availability for managing all kinds of technical crises and his sense of humour. I’ll probably have to send computers to you from France, asI doubt I’ll be able to find anyone close to your ability there. Supplied MacBook Pro 13” refurbished Erica, London

Upgrading an older Mac to El Capitan. Beware CPU hogging and over heating at first start up. It appears that Photos background activities coupled with Spotlight indexing are causing a lot of overheating and crashes on older Macs until both have completed initial set up. Try installing iStat Menus to run the fans faster and leave your Mac on for 24 hours after initial set up. As always, give me a call if you need help.

Keith @ Appel delivered a competitive quotation and delivered on cost and within timescales set. He went the extra mile. I won’t go anywhere else for mac repairs! iMac Intel 20″ & iMac G5 17″ swapped HDs & installed client’s new hd & optical drive to Intel Mac.

Lee, Telford, Shropshire

When my beloved iMac stopped working I assumed the worst – a broken logic board. Keith quickly diagnosed the issue as a faulty power supply (much cheaper to fix!) and had my Mac back with me in less than a week. A great service, fast and reasonably priced – I would highly recommend. iMac G5 20″ replaced PSU. Lee, Warrington, Cheshire

Keith – Many thanks for a speedy and thorough service. I always know I can rely on your expertise to get us out of a jam. Diagnosis over the phone was accurate, repairs and explanations are always spot on. I would urge anyone with a Mac problem to call you. Data recovery from faulty Mac PowerBooks plus PowerMac G5 overhaul. Victor, Design Consultant, West Midlands

The new video card for my iMac is running very well, so I am a happy customer. iMac new video card sourced and fitted. Martin, Telford, Shropshire

Thank you for the excellent level of help you gave when my G5 died in December. I was more than impressed that you were happy to carry out full diagnosis while I waited and that you salvaged all my data without any drama. To find such a friendly and highly professional service, without exorbitant charges, was far more than I had hoped for. I hope my new Mac will be trouble free for a while, but if not, I know where to come! iMac G5 17″ full data recovery. Andy, Oswestry, Shropshire

Many thanks for fixing my MacBook recently. Everything is working fine and I’m most grateful. William, Pontesbury, Shropshire

Many thanks to Keith Cox @appelkc for once again resolving our mac problem. Highly Recommended! Antony CDP Printing Telford

Thanks to Appel for trying to save me money by finding a cheaper solution to my dead cinema screen. Unfortunately the cheap option didn’t work but they did source a new graphics card which worked a treat and my mac and two screens are once again fully functional. I was very happy with the service. MacPro faulty graphics card tried alternative but had to import original from US.

Wendy, Henley, West Midlands

Just to say a big thank you for the loving care you gave to my laptop. It is feeling very revived and spring like. Replace LCD screen 15” MacBook Pro. Kay, High Ercall, Shropshire

I’m very happy, many thanks. Supplied refurbished MacBook Unibody Karen, Leicester, Leicestershire

My iMac developed a problem with coloured banding on the screen. Quickly discovered that it was the logic board coupled with the video card. Not only was that fixed very promptly but Keith cleaned up software which was not compatible and also installed an anti Malware program and removed Adware/Malware. Disabled an app which was hogging resources at boot up. Now I have a much sleeker operating system. Very highly recommended. Keith, Llangollen

Earlier this year my iMac suffered a Hard Drive failure…I thought 6 years of my life had vanished… Keith calmed me down and set about the repairs…I had a new hard drive installed and he managed to recover 90% of my files! Fabulous service! iMac 20″ data recovery & replace hard disk Robert, Dudley, West Midlands

Supplied iPad Mini refurbished plus new lighting mains cable. Found some braided lightning cables from Robert Dyas which do the job admirably and for less than £10.

Appel gives the sort of service one dreams of. When my old G5 Mac died on me on a Monday morning, a quick phone call to Keith and I was off to Telford to see if this boffin could fix it. He couldn’t – but he did rescue all my data and was incredibly helpful with all the discussion then to buy my fabulous new iMac. Brilliant service, and also really helpful after-care conversations. Can’t recommend him highly enough. New Intel iMac migrated data from failed iMac G5 and set up Time Machine backup.… Chloe, Ludlow, Shropshire

I recently had a new hard drive installed. An excellent service, very quick turnaround of the job, and excellent value for money. I have no hesitation in recommending Keith at Appel! 13″ MacBook new HD installed & transfer of data Joe, Shrewsbury, Shropshire

My old and much loved MacBook was very dead after I dropped coffee on the keyboard. Not only did Keith get it to work but it’s faster than ever. Thanks lots MacBook damaged logic board replaced June, Ironbridge, Telford, Shropshire

Had my 27″ iMac hard drive replaced and an update in RAM from 4 to 8gb. Also purchased a used Apple track pad at the same time. I was absolutely over the moon with the total price (cheap as Asda) And amazed at how quick the repair and upgrade took. A* service by an A* person. Mitchell, Telford, Shropshire

iMac 20″ & MacBook Pro 15″ both running sluggishly. Removed and binned all associated files for McAfee & Mac Keeper. Apple recommend NOT to use any virus protection that constantly monitors a Mac and Mac Keeper & associated files are a definite NO NO. Just make sure you keep your OS up to date with Apple’s security updates and if worried download free ClamXav fro AppStore and run once a month or when in doubt. Also checked for Adware using Adware Medic which is a really simple utility & free fr…

I needed an urgent repair for a crashed hard drive on my church office computer. Keith replaced the hard drive, recovered all the data from the old drive and I had a perfectly working machine back, with intact files, in less than 24 hours. All this at a superb price. Another place I tried wanted the machine for two weeks, could not recover the data and wanted 3 times the price. I’ll use Keith every time now. 27″ iMac data recovery and transfer to new HD fitted Garry, Claverley, Shropshire

Keith has repaired two of my Macs recently and has provided a quick and responsive service – he always helpful and friendly too – an added bonus! MacBook Pro data recovery & replace hard drive Jocelyne, Shrewsbury, Shropshire

Thank you too for keeping me updated on the progress of the work, albeit you repaired my iMac very promptly, and the very detailed report on all the work you carried out together with advice for future use of my iMac. I am most grateful for your excellent customer service. I will most definitely be using your all round first class services a… John, Machynlleth, Powys

My iMac recently developed a fault. The first “port in a storm” was to contact Appel who diagnosed a hard drive malfunction, and recommended a replacement. An updated spec drive was subsequently installed, and the system now functions perfectly. Keith Cox gave a speedy, cost effective and efficient service. Without hesitation, I would recommend his business to other Mac users. iMac 21.5” replace faulty hard drive Alan, Little Wenlock, Shropshire
