Jeff, Oswestry, Shropshire

iMac 20” upgraded to Mavericks & running like a dog, even after RAM upgrade to 6GB. No faults HD or software updates. Checked logs and Kaspersky is creating excessive activity. Get rid of it. BUT deleting the app leaves residue & still a problem. Download Kaspersky uninstaller. Faults and Solutions

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

20″ iMac starts up to black screen. Diagnosed failed HD. Hard drive replaced with new and new software installed. Data recovery on original successfully recovered critical data for client and migrated to new HD. OS was terminally damaged on original HD so data migration had to be done manually including repair and resetting of all file permissions.

Thank you so much for updating my vintage MacBook! It’s given it a whole new lease of life and is running beautifully. An excellent service, very friendly and efficient. Lynsey, Telford, Shropshire

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

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

Outstanding service from Keith. Out of the blue my iMac’s hard drive started to fail.

As always, Keith’s service is amazing. He seems to be on tap with solutions to problems, shortcuts around issues and if all else fails, speedy re-builds and repairs in amazingly short time.

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.

Peter, Ketley, Telford, Shropshire

It’s always the same, a problem occurs or something isn’t working correctly but you carry on trying to fix it not wanting down time!!! If I contact someone to fix it they will charge and then there’s the time to fix the problem. You think! I have learnt after many occasions like this, the first port of call is simply email Appel, quite often any problems are simple to fix and require advise. Get it fixed before it creates further problems, it works better it makes you feel better and as for the … Mike, Shrewsbury, Shropshire
