This video saved my mac. My laptop was stuck at “100% charged” even though it wasn’t. It kept randomly dying, and when I plugged it up I couldn’t tell if it was charging or not. All apple stores are closed because of coronavirus and I thought I was gonna fail me online grad school exam today. This video saved my mac & grades 💯

Who else decided to revive their old 2009 Macbook Pro? It's COVID and stuck at home anyway! Upgraded mine with new RAM, battery and SSD and the fan was running all the time! This video save it. Fan is quiet as a mouse now. Thanks so much!!
You just saved me from spending 50€ on a diagnosis from a technician, who said my mac needed a full replacement of the keyboard... which would have been around 800€ ahah Thank you!
Thank you so much for this video! My macbook pro (2017) wasn't charging at all, so it ended up dying (not even the dead battery sign was showing)... so I took it to an apple store in Cádiz (K-Tuin) and they said it could be an issue with the charging port...the piece replacement would cost over 650€ (insane) and maybe the keyboard had to be replace too... so as you may know I wasn't up to paying THAT amount of money and took my issue to google, when this video raise up like the lifesaver it is and I fixed my mac (I'm actually writing this review from it)...You're awesome, thank you for sharing your knowledge and I'm saving this for future reference of course.
My maxed out MacBook Pro 2015 15 inch was having the fans at full blast when I only had 2 tabs of chrome open. After doing this it’s just warm but not turning the fans on at maximum load. You can hear the fans if you listen carefully which is what it’s supposed to do. It was driving me crazy because I recently replaced the thermal paste and cleaned out completely. Almost bought a new computer. Thank you!
Hello there, I have a 2016 MacBook Pro A1707. I replaced the old battery to a new one and since then The fan keeps spinning and the Mac has become super slow. It was working fine before the battery change. I followed your video instructions but no luck. Can you help?
I’m absolutely amazed at how this tip worked to fix my problem. My cursor arrow just started blinking one day for no reason. Was driving me nuts. I followed his simple instructions, and the cursor blinks no more!! Thanks a ton man. I really appreciate you sharing your knowledge with everyone. 👍
I hadn't used this reset in several years so I had forgotten which buttons to push, thanks. My right fan was running really slow at about 241rpm, simple restart didn't help but this fixed the issue.
Thanks a bunch mate! Been having issues with my USB-C to displayport for ages and this solved is all in no time. Hero of the day for a home office worker in 2022.

You should use your mac in a flat surface, such as a table or even a book (when you wanna use it in your lap) That will sgop overheating, hence reduce fan noice. No need for resetting SMC lol
@@xxdinosawaxxgamergirl8862 use your mac on a flat surface. When yoi wanna use it in your lap, use a something like a book. When you use it in your lap or on a pillow, or any soft surface, you're blocking the fans. Using a hard surface will reduce overheating lol

Hi!!! I just came across this video and I just wanted to say thank you SOOOOO much because this helped me resolve a problem that my mac's been having for the LONGEST time. I'll be leaving my experience here just incase anybody else needs it or are experiencing the same problem!!! I have a Macbook Air 2017 model and my USB ports on both side have not been working for like.... 2 years now? and I got these new headsets I wanted to try out and I was trying to plug it in n connect it w my laptop through the USB cable - but it didn't work. The headsets could work wireless too but the sound quality was HORRIBLE when connected through Bluetooth with my laptop so I was worried that it was a problem w my USB ports (since my headsets are literally new). I tried the SMC reboot and IMMEDIATELY, my USB ports got fixed and now everything works. I cannot express how HAPPY I am right now!!! So yeah! Thank you!!! and YES this works 100% it saved me money and time from visiting the Apple Store.
I cannot reset the SMC cuz my entire keyboard cannot work, I bought a wired keyboard so I can still use my mac. I was thinking if I can reset it with my wired keyboard and plz answer me. Thank you!!
Hey would this fix the issue, of my mac : it boots up fine but then when i log into my account the mac resets. It then comes up with no battery even though it does have battery.
I did exactly what you did in the video but still not charging the battery. Does this mean that my battery do actually need to be replaced. Can you recommend further steps if the solution you showed didn't work! Very much appreciated
Hi and thanks for the video. Should this work with the 2013 early 15" macbook pro?I have a problem with the battery indicator. It drains in 20 mins from 100% to 7% and then it lasts 80 mins to completely drain.The battery and the charger are brand new.Any suggestions?
I have a MacBook Air (2013 Model), and I tried fixing it recently because the computer started to load and respond slowly. My cursor would even turn into a rainbow I tried using a safe boot but now not only did that not work but now my volume is grayed out.

Ahmad Zablah even though it sounds obvious for the SMC reset but after doing exactly the same as him and restart several times it works again. Hope you get that sorted, I know it’s very inconvenient especially this happens when I was doing revision for next day exam.
Alvin Thanks it worked after restarting several times, but this issue keeps happening twice a month i think or more or less. I’m afraid there’s something unusual with my MacBook Pro.
