If you’ve a Mac problem Appel is the company and Keith is the man ! iMac 21.5” replace HD Nick, Telford, Shropshire

iPad 2 nightmare repair. When screen was smashed it fractured some internal cables. Playing hunt the fault with a box of new parts was no fun.

27″ iMac not accepting DVDs. Tried simple clean but had to replace drive.

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.

MacBook Pro 13″ adware & virus removal completed for client using Adware Medic & ClamXav. Saved all then replaced HD with larger 1TB hard drive & transferred all client data, programs & settings to new drive.

The service from Keith at Appel was great – very speedy response and efficient. They even managed to squeeze me in, at short notice, before Christmas! No problems since! Install new iMac and manually migrate everything from a non Migration Assistant compatible Mac.

Trish, Shrewsbury, Shropshire

MacBook Pro 15″ failed battery & failed hard drive. Replaced battery with new and removed HD to recovery station. Unable to recover any data from this drive – sent to HD laboratory who dismantled in a clean room and rebuilt so data could be saved. There was catastrophic damage to one platter of HD and this data was lost but the other 3 platters were recovered including critical data for client.

Brisk, cheerful and competent service for my iMac – most recommended. 20″ iMac repair Richard, Church Stretton, Shropshire

Black MacBook client replaced HD themselves and not working, will not install OS. Reformatted new HD and set up with new OS. Failed hard drive is now working as it should

Had a problem – dead MacBook Air 2012 caused by my amateur efforts over 4 hour to repair it It was working ok when I started. Rang Keith. Took it to the workshop. An hour later. Problem solved. Well the problem I created was solved. Mac working but the new part would have been more than I wanted to pay (I am so tight I squeak when I walk) so reinstated. Now 12 months on still working fine. Total cost about £40. Amazing service at any price but this cheap astonishing. Was able to watch whi…

Graham, Shrewsbury

MacBook white A1181, trackpad not working. Replaced whole topcase keyboard & trackpad. All works now. Trackpad & keyboard are not individually replaceable on this model so its a whole topcase.

20” iMac brought in with failed HD. Recovered part of the data but the majority is lost with NO backup. Installed new HD with OS & transferred little recovered data. Advised client the FileVault client is not accessible and only way to get data is send to laboratory for compete dismantling in a clean room. Cost around £500 and no guarantees. Ouch – have you backed up today?

iPhone 5C with food spilt on it has muffled speaker & battery needs replacing. All stripped down and chemically cleaned. New battery fitted. Sound working & battery back to normal.

Thanks for sorting my Mac Book Pro charging fault and locked out all now working well, would recommend Keith for a no nonsense approach to getting things sorted out at low cost Andy, Shrewsbury, Shropshire

27″ iMac 2011 went from fractured screen graphics to blue or black screen. Usual signs of video card failure which costs over £400 to replace. Advised client there was a recall on this model & to take to AppleStore who would repair for free. One happy client!

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

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

I recently had issues with my mums 24″ iMac which I didn’t fancy trying to fix myself. I googled looking for a repair shop in the local area and found Keith. I left a message and he called me back within 20 minutes. I organised to drop the machine off and it was back within a couple of days. I’ve used Appel twice now and I won’t go anywhere else for my mac repairs. Thanks Keith! iMac replaced PSU & hard drive. Dave, Shifnal, Shropshire

Keith repaired my apple screen and even lent me a replacement whilst awaiting parts. Best customer service experienced in a long time. Apple 23″ Cinema Display repair – Replaced faulty power adaptor Paul, Pattingham, Staffs

MacBook 13.3″ white new LCD panel received and fitted to fix blank screen

Difficulty setting up wireless printer was resolved by completing the setup using a fixed USB connection to install all drivers & updates. Then removed cables & finished wireless setup. All good.

I was very pleased to hear of Keith’s expertise some years ago and his knowledge on Mac computers is unbelievable. This is my second visit this time to fix a damaged hard drive with an SSD. That apart he also transferred my records, including many photos, from iCloud. He will always go that extra mile in explaining technical details in terms that one can understand. Very highly recommended. Keith, Llangollen
