Mac repair at home in Cluses
Macs need a specific diagnostic workflow: recovery mode, Disk Utility, NVRAM/SMC reset, Apple ID management. I use these tools every day and most software problems get solved at your place — no Apple Store or Genius Bar trip needed.
Whether you have a MacBook Air or Pro, iMac, Mac mini or Mac Studio (Intel or Apple Silicon M1/M2/M3/M4), I come to your home in Cluses.
Common cases I handle
- Slow or freezing macOS (Ventura, Sonoma, Sequoia) — system cleanup, free up disk space
- Mac that won't boot — boot recovery, fsck APFS, reinstall keeping data
- Forgotten macOS password — reset via recovery + Apple ID
- Stuck Time Machine — restore or clean rebuild of the backup
- Stuck macOS update — controlled rollback or clean reinstall
- Recurring kernel panic — log diagnosis, memory test, security
- iCloud accounts out of sync — Photos, Mail, Drive, Keychain
- Migration from a Windows PC to Mac (Migration Assistant or manual)
€ 80 flat rate
The Mac home repair flat rate covers:
- Full macOS diagnosis
- System cleanup (caches, temporary files, updates)
- APFS disk verification (Disk Utility, fsck)
- Time Machine management (setup, restore, exclusions)
- Backup and security advice (iCloud, passwords, Family)
Average duration: 1 to 3 hours on site. No evening or weekend surcharge.
Apple Silicon vs Intel: practical differences
Apple Silicon Macs (M1-M4) changed everything:
- Instant boot, all-day battery
- Rosetta 2 emulation for old Intel software
- Different recovery mode (long press on power button)
- DFU mode available to revive a bricked Mac
I'm up to date on these and adapt the diagnosis accordingly.
When Apple support is still required
I'm honest: for these cases I point you to the Apple Store or an authorised French partner, and I prepare the Mac before shipping (backup, iCloud sign-out):
- Faulty butterfly keyboard (Apple recall for certain models)
- Cracked screen or dead backlight
- Swollen battery (safety risk)
- Motherboard soldering or faulty T2/Apple Silicon chip
My diagnosis stays free in these cases.
