    engo un macbook pro 2017 y cada dos meses deja de reconocer los puertos USB-C y se pone lento, como consecuencia deja de cargar y la batería se agota, la única solución que he encontrado es reiniciar la SMC que es presionando shift + control + option + power durante 10 segundos y funciona!!!, el problema es que esta falla me la arroja cada 2 meses aproximadamente y no se que le sucede al mac y no se si reiniciar el SMC a largo plazo dañara el equipo.

    This whole Mac line up has been having severe issues. Worst purchase ever for myself. And to think this was the final straw for Apple to stop using Intel and manufacturing their own chips. We got scammed into buying this product that doesn't function well and heats up at the slightest tasks.

  • @miguelgago604
    @miguelgago604 ปีที่แล้ว

    So, there's no way to reset SMC without having to reboot? I have a MacBookAir and I'm using a Sacheti adapter (certified by and purchased from Apple) that runs also HDMI to my Samsung monitor, reads my SDXC cards and has also USB that normally connects to an external drive. After some hours, the adapter stops feeding the battery nor the Mac, so forcing you to reboot at some time because the battery empties. After rebooting, the power adapter always restarts charging, so the steps in this video are actually not necessary in this situation. All I have to do is reboot from time to time, though that's exactly what I want to avoid!
