Q: Powerbook G4 17"

Hi! I'm just curious if there are Apple stores or services here in the Philippines who can help me regarding my old and damaged Powerbook G4 17". I was thinking of selling it but unsure if I can get in return fairly. I am hoping Apple does have services which can help me.

    You may find an authorized Apple service provider who can repair and help keep

    an older vintage or obsolete computer running, but parts are generally a problem

    for old vintage obsolete products. An independent Apple authorized agency that

    does these may be found, when most Apple retailers handle much newer gear.

     

    So if you cannot locate suitable correct parts, you may need to be looking for

    other similar build model year identified vintage PowerBook G4s for parts.

     

    This link may work to help locate sales, service, or other Apple related item, there:

    https://locate.apple.com/

     

    If that ^ page does not automatically show info on your country, see following link,

    I found by looking deeper. You'd need to put your nearest City of size to see what

    appears; in the Philippines you may find some areas have more or less results.

    Hopefully you can locate someone there who may be able to help.

    Good luck & happy computing!

    You are so welcome! Also, you may be able to locate other persons of similar interests

    who may have information in your area, by checking into the 'Apple User Group' concept...

     

    see if you can locate an apple user group there:

    http://appleusergroupresources.com/find-a-group/

     

    apple users group - philippines - google search:

    https://www.google.com/?gws_rd=ssl#q=apple+users+group+philippines

     

    In the main Apple site, a link to some Apple User groups relates to certain

    locations, and I can't tell where other country or region groups are for sure.

     

    The following was found in a main Apple contact us page; but the Apple Asia

    site did not have a similar link when I checked...

     

    • User Groups - link to Apple user groups page
      Mix and mingle with other Apple Users in your area.


    Hopefully you can use these links to locate helpful information and people

    in your area with whom you can relate and perhaps find more answers;

    to expand your own experience and share, & could be worthwhile...

     

    Good luck & happy computing!
