How to Delete Native iPhone Apps
Touch one of the app icons on your iPhone and hold it until all of the icons start to wiggle and shake. This is how you enter the position editing mode for the apps.
Select any of the apps and drag it to the right edge of the screen. The icon will cause the screen to shift to the next page of icons. If you have only one page of icons, this will create a second page.
Drag a second app from the first page to the next page and keep dragging it until you reach a third page. Keep moving apps until you've created nine pages of apps.
Move all of the native apps that you want to delete onto the ninth page of apps. Make sure that the native apps are the last ones on the page.
Add more icons to the ninth page until you have the page full with 16 apps. Keep the apps to be deleted as the last ones on the page.
Move several app icons to the eighth page so they are at least as many apps as you want to delete. So if you want to delete four native apps, place five apps onto the eighth page.
Drag the last app on the eighth page to the first position on the ninth page. This will bump the last app on the ninth page off and move it to the backdoor 10th page automatically. This is equivalent to deleting the app because you won't see it on your iPhone.
Keep moving the apps form the eighth page to the ninth page in the same pattern until all of the native apps you want to remove are moved to the 10th page.

How to Repair the Power Port on an Apple Laptop
Remove the battery. Turn the laptop upside down and press the two buttons below the battery. Remove the memory cover by unscrewing the three screws that the removed battery exposes. Remove the two screws against the opposite wall of the battery slot, as well as the Torx screws that are exposed directly beneath the battery. Additionally, remove the hinge screws at the edge of the laptop where the screen is connected. Remove the screws on the port side of the computer. This is the side opposite the power port. Remove the screws at the rear as well as the screws on the power port side of the laptop. You now should have removed all of the screws exposed by removing the memory door and the battery as well as all of the screws exposed externally.
Slide your finger around the plastic panel near the keyboard. The entire top of the laptop below the screen should pop off. Continue to gently pry around the edges as it comes up. Remove its connections to the motherboard.
Remove the fan by disconnecting it from its various connectors. If the laptop is oriented as it would be during use, the fan will be located in the upper left-hand corner. Remove the two screws holding it in place. This will expose the Airport card. Detach the antenna cables that are connected to it. Remove the single screw that holds it in place, and lift the airport card out of the computer gently.
Disconnect the speaker from the left IO board. It's located below where the Airport card was. Remove the speaker. This is in the upper left hand corner of the laptop if it's oriented normally. Disconnect the power cable on the IO board, unscrew the remaining screws holding it in place and remove it.
Insert the new left IO board, and reverse the previous steps.

How to Connect the AC Adapter for a MacBook Pro
Align the smaller end of the MacBook Pro's MagSafe AC adapter with the plug on the upper left corner of the laptop. The connector has a set of five copper pins that match up with five holes in the plug.
Let go of the connector so that it 'drops' into place. Unlike other AC adapters, the MagSafe adapter has a magnetic edge that forms a connection with the AC port on the MacBook Pro. You don't need to push the MagSafe adapter in. As long as you line it up with the plug it should attach to the computer by itself.Apple designed the MagSafe adapter this way to protect your laptop in the event someone trips over the cord. If you pull on the power cord too much it will disconnect from your MacBook Pro. Other AC adapters can pull on laptops and drag them to the floor.
Plug the power brick on the other end of the AC adapter into an electrical outlet. Pull out the two white prongs on the back end of the power brick and wrap any excess cable around them if you so desire.
Install the extension cable that came with your MacBook Pro if the cable is too short. Unplug the MagSafe adapter from the wall. Grip the two-pronged metal plug on the front of the power brick and pull upward to remove it. The MagSafe adapter has a removable plug so that you can install a variety of adapters. Replace the plug with the three-pronged extension cable. Simply insert it where the two-pronged plug was and push down. Plug the three-pronged end of the extension cable into the wall.
Grip the MagSafe connector and wobble it left, right, up or down to unplug it from your MacBook Pro. Do not pull on the cable or pull the connector straight out as this places more wear and tear on the device.

Tap the 'Record' button to begin recording the audio. When you are finished recording the lecture, tap the 'Pause' button to pause the recording. You can access the recording on your iPhone by tapping the 'List' button in the Voice Memos application. This button is labeled with an icon that resembles three horizontal stripes.

How to Fix Water in My Laptop Screen (7 Steps)
Unplug your laptop and remove the battery.
Unscrew any screws around the frame. Not all laptop frames are screwed on, some simply snap in.
Use your small nylon pry tool to remove the monitor frame. Put the tip of the tool under the outer edge of the frame, work your way gradually around the frame, and gently pry the frame off.
Unscrew and pry off the plastic casings that cover the display hinge where the display meets the keyboard. This will reveal the monitor wiring.
Unscrew and remove any screws or brackets that are holding the laptop screen.
Line your keyboard with a clean, soft cloth. Put on the cotton gloves and pull the LCD screen down and rest it flat, face down on the keyboard.
Use a LCD screen cleaning cloth to blot up the liquid. A LCD screen cleaning spray can also be used if necessary. A blow dryer on a low setting can also be used to evaporate the water. Be careful to not let the laptop get too hot.

How to Test a MagSafe DC
Turn the laptop on. Let the desktop appear on the screen. Shut down the laptop once the battery icon in the upper right corner of the screen states that there is less than 50% power remaining.
Rotate the laptop counterclockwise so that you can see the MagSafe DC-input depression at the upper left inside edge.
Plug the power cord attached to the MagSafe’s power supply into a wall outlet. Place the MagSafe connector up against the depression. Let go once you feel the magnetic attraction that is holding the MagSafe connector against the depression.
Turn the laptop on. Do nothing until the laptop’s operating system brings up the desktop. Note that the icon of the battery in the upper right corner of the screen is displaying a “lightning” slash through the battery icon. Write down the percentage of battery power being displayed.
Leave the laptop undisturbed for an hour. Note whether the percentage of the battery power has increased or not. If there is no increase in the percentage, the laptop’s DC-input board is not receiving any electricity from the MagSafe connector. If the percentage has increased, the opposite is true.
