Short answer
Yes. We make a complete backup of all your data before the logic board is replaced. If the SSD is built in, we temporarily repair the MacBook, log in with your password and copy everything to an external USB drive. You can then return the computer to Apple for the new board and put your files back on your new Mac.
I am at an Apple store, and they have informed me that my MacBook motherboard needs to be replaced. I am concerned about losing all my data. Can you assist me in recovering my data before the motherboard replacement?
Yes, as a data recovery company specialising in Apple MacBooks, we perform a complete backup of all data on your motherboard. If the SSD is built-in, we temporarily repair the MacBook to extract all data, using your password to log in. Once all data has been copied to an external USB drive, you can return the computer to Apple for a new motherboard or logic board. Subsequently, you can transfer all your desktop files, photos, applications, and iPhoto library content, or anything else we backed up, onto your new Mac computer.
We execute this process safely, ensuring no data loss. This is why individuals and companies like Apple recommend us prior to repairs, especially when a MacBook is not powering on due to a deceased logic board, a field in which we specialise. We handle this process securely.
