Keith takes the time and trouble to get to the real cause of your problem and is very reasonably priced Paul, Telford

Thanks for sorting out our ibook. Now its upgraded to OSX 10.7.5 and backing up on the nice little hard drive you supplied, its doing all the things a Mac should do again. I am sure it will be good for another 2-3 years. Thanks again for this and all the other times your knowledge has proved invaluable, long may you be around. MacBook RAM upgrade, new battery & complete housekeeping Len, Broseley, Shropshire

Very quick and helpful response. Problem was with a faulty battery: a replacement was sourced speedily and at a good price. Even lent her a spare battery while we waited for the new one. MacBook not booting, battery fault. Chris, Shrewsbury, Shropshire

Appel has supplied us with a number of refurbished Macs over the years and carried out a number of repairs and upgrades, including recently giving a new lease of life to an ageing (2007) Mac Book Pro 15. We find the service is excellent and the computers always work beyond the guarantee period. MacBook Pro 15” replaced faulty keyboard John Dalby, Shrewsbury, Shropshire

Always helpful with a speedy and professional approach. Beat every quote for repair and sales I could find and work done with a personal touch, couldn’t ask for more, especially as I depend on my various Macs for business and life in general. A satisfied customer! iMac HD replaced and data transfer plus supply of used Mac. Mark Newtown, Powys

Appel just did a good job replacing the fan on a MacBook. Keith has previously refurbished two MacBooks for us. Always very prompt, efficient and helpful, and perseveres until the job is done. MacBook overheating due to blocked exhaust & failing fan – cleaned & replaced. Chris, Shrewsbury, Shropshire

13″ MacBook Pro repair – please speed up my MacBook Pro. Installed new RAM to 8GB, replaced HD with SSD, updated OS to Yosemite and cleared all junk & 3rd party utilities before migrating client data across. Running like an express train said the client.

Client just called and has installed Yosemite on a 6 year old Mac. Appel do NOT recommend installing Yosemite on any Macs over 2 years old. This client is fetching his MAcBook in today and all that can be done is to erase the hard disk 7 install a compatible OS for his machine.

Once again, Keith delivers the goods, exactly what I wanted. What would we Telford Macaddicts do without him? Supplied used iMac and data transferred. Norman, Telford, Shropshire

Faced with a blank screen on my MBP, I was dreading the cost of purchasing a new Mac and weighing the implications of having to update all my software to whichever OS was dished out to me in the process. Fortunately, Keith at Appel assured me that there was still plenty of life left to my MBP, and a week later, the laptop was returned to me as good as new, with a reconditioned logic board, a new (and much larger) HDD, extra RAM, a spare battery and a replacement case (the original was damaged ar… G. Limor, London

I was extremely please with the service that I received from Keith at Appel. My iMac needed some upgrading and Keith was able to fit me in quickly and managed to resolve the issue whilst I waited – I would highly recommend them. iMac 20″ resolved issues with MS Office Lisa, Shrewsbury, Shropshire

Jeff, Oswestry, Shropshire

15″ MacBook Pro returned by Police after robbery. Damage report & quotation prepared for insurance company.

Appel provide a fast, efficient and friendly service. iMac 21.5″ hard disk replacement Keith, Shrewsbury, Shropshire

“If you thinks its expensive hiring a professional, wait until you try an amateur!” Rings true with a couple of recent jobs: iMac 27” brought in after somebody offered the client a cheap HD replacement…. my cost to diagnose & fix was over £400 to replace the logic board that was shorted as a result of not working in a static protected environment. An iPad came in a few weeks ago, not working after having a new screen fitted at a pc repair shop locally. Having paid them for the repair that…

Keith has saved my Macbook Pro’s twice in the last five years when on both occasions I thought all was lost, he is simply gifted (!) ….and I am very grateful! Keith provides not only the highest technical expertise but the honest advice and calm problem solving we all need in the face of a Mac meltdown, and he does it as soon as he can and he delivers, thank you Keith! I will continue to travel long distances for him to sort my Mac.

MacBook Pro 17″ Replaced faulty RAM then replaced logic boa…

Many many thanks for your work and the data recovery. Very pleased that you salvaged the situation so brilliantly! Crashed HD MacBook replaced & data recovery. Sam from Bridgnorth & Canary Islands

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

Appel came highly recommended and deservedly too. Even though Keith was clearly busy when I arrived, he made time to sort my Macbook Pro problems promptly. This was my first experience of Appel and as a result I won’t be going elsewhere – delighted. Set up new MacBook Pro and recover data & transfer from old Mac. Andy, Cressage, Shropshire

Helpful assessment that replacing faulty memory heatsink on PowerMac G5 was problematic. As a result decision made to purchase a new iMac rather than go for a risky repair. Appreciate the integrity of Appel. G5 start up problems due to RAM heatsink. Cleaned & adjust assessed as further work uneconomic. David, Shrewsbury, Shropshire

Its a pleasure to deal with Appel. Always a very fast, efficient and friendly service that I would highly recommend. Supplied refurbished MacBook & MacBook Pro.

Martin, Dawley, Shropshire.
