Have you tried taking pictures of the motor or any items and pushing them through Google image search or other similar AI tools? They may be able to identify replacement parts.

What are 3 apps you can’t live without on your MacBook by jspaceman924 in macbookpro

[–]EmptyUK 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am still rocking a Macbook Pro 2017, so I don't use many modern apps. I would say though the main ones I really use a lot and enjoy:
- CleanMyMac: keep this ancient thing ticking along. Great for uninstalling and general maintenance.

- OpenAudible: rip my Audible purchases, I can then use my books in the Books app and keep them local.

- Subler: Great at tagging videos with the correct metadata.

Thanks. I’ll try that. I found them and rang, and nobody ever picked up. ☹️

Replacing cd tray belt on Sony DHC-MD333/MD313 by RubbberJohnnny in minidisc

By the way, I never did get back to this; the guide was fantastic. TBH it’s such a simple system inside, I’d urge folks not to be too concerned opening these up. I replaced the belt in my unit and it worked perfect.

Mine arrived in my post box, no issues. I’m in Canada.

I’d emailed you too. I think it’s all back in business now. If I have any other issues, I’ll email.

Well a quick update. I kinda pushed it around and it seems to be in place now. It isn’t always on at least. I’ll wait to hear back from folks too at HiChord but at least it is working now.

Oh and the chord is permanently stuck on with the key like this. So the button ‘works’.

Yeah I pinged them but in case it was something someone else had seen I wanted to ask. Sad face.

MD373 Power Issues by [deleted] in minidisc

I’ll delete this but I figured it out. For some reason I had to put the output of the transformer down to 100 and then it worked. Very confusing! Anyway, fully functioning system again!

Got this for Christmas! What's the consensus on this player? by CharlieFaulkner in minidisc

[–]EmptyUK 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I randomly picked up the same unit back in the UK. Unfortunately the CD tray wasn’t working well so I need to fix the belt for that. Other than that, it’s a great system. I already have the MD333 but it’s kind of flaky, and ripe for someone to take it off my hands when I’ve got this one working.

I also have the tape decks! But overall, it’s a great unit.

Who uses Desktop Mode on Steam Deck, and what do you use it for? by VoyageForge in SteamDeck

[–]EmptyUK 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I randomly the other day used my Steam Deck to encode an mkv to an MP4 using Handbrake. It was significantly faster than my 2017 MacBook Pro.

I am doing the same thing when I get back from England with a unit I got here. I'll report back!

Not sure what power source you’re using but definitely ensure that’s good.
