I was having the hardest time doing something seemingly simple - moving the contents of my old Macbook onto my Macbook Air and connecting my AppleID. When I called AppleCare customer service, they sent me to Computer Link in Stockton, as they are a verified Apple service provider. They were a little over an hour away from Oakland, and the journey was well worth my time! The service was friendly, professional, and prompt. In under 3 hours I was on my way. Will definitely return! read more

I've taken my MacBooks to Computer Link a couple of times and have had nothing but excellent service. Communications with Tony was good and the quotes reasonable. Turnaround times - for my needs - have been terrific. Same-day for yesterday's visit. Another plus is that they're local and take walk-ins. I highly recommend Computer Link for your computer service/needs. read more

We brought an Apple comp. in for repair. We received great service.

Awesome experience. Tony the manager was very helpful. Great communication and kept me up to date with no hesitation. Very affordable and did a great job on repairing the computer. Charged only $90 dollars to repair. His techs did a great job with no problems whatsoever. Thanks Tony you deserve the 5 stars. read more

Tony and his team were there for me when my MacBook Pro battery died. What was going to cost $400 ended up being free because they contacted Apple for the replacement and found that Apple would pay for the battery and reimburse them since it was a known issue! They also helped me with cleaning up my drive and moral support! Thank you for your flexibility and customer support! read more

I always support locally owned businesses. It's where I go first. So, I chose Computerlink for my iPhone battery replacement. It was not the best experience. I was told by Micah, they would order the battery and give me a call in a couple of weeks. My daughter called 2 1/2 weeks later to check on the status. Tony couldn't find us in their system. He finally found us by the phones serial number. Tony said he would talk to Micah and get back with us. Which he did. Yeah for Tony! But we were still on the waiting list for a battery. You can be the very best computer geek in the world but if you don't have good communication skills, you will lose business. That simply means good communication in the store and follow up. I know it's only a battery today but if I had a good experience I would have recommended the business and used them in the future. I ended up taking the phone to Best Buy and the battery is replaced. They aren't the best either and I really would have preferred a small business like Computer Link. read more

Highly recommend this place. I called apple twice and they were no help. I brought my laptop and told the owner "i think" that I was dealing with a software issue regarding updating my laptop. An update shouldn't be a big deal however my laptop is brand-new. The owner fixed my issue right away and apple couldn't even do that. Again highly recommend this place. read more

These guys are great! I've had issues with my Macbook a couple of times over the past year, and they have saved me both times. Once for a new battery, and the other was a more critical issue. Prices are reasonable. They stay busy, so just make sure you have a back-up plan. And they're Apple authorized. Tony is always helpful, and keeps you informed throughout the process. read more

I've been using Computer Link for several years, and Tony the manager, handles most phone calls & walk-ins. He gives customers the 'Straight Scoop' as to the problem and what it'll take to have your computer Up & Running again. Their experienced staff can provide helpful suggestions and explain clearly details with Non-Techies...like me! Plus, I DON'T LIKE Driving those long 40 miles to the Apple Modesto store...WHY WAIT & PAY MORE to fix my Droids?!? So, if you live close by or happen to be nearby Stockton's Computer Link store, save some Gas and the Long Wait and get Quality Certified Apple service at a reasonable price. For years, I've been in Good Hands with Computer Link! read more

For two decades Tony Wilson & team have provided for all of my computer needs - from repairs to the purchase of new computers. Expert technicians, honest & reliable - wouldn't think of using any other company! read more

Computer link Truly dissapointed me on this go around after $500 in charges and Parts being replaced that I didnt need I finally had to take my macbook to Apple. Computer link had my computer for 3 weeks sent me home with it 3 times saying it was fixed yet the same problem kept arising. I then took it to apple where the replaced the logic board and had it back to me within a week. I went back to get all the money back that I spent at computer link and they refused to refund me any money. Will never go back to this place ever again! They are incompetent read more

As an Apple Authorized Service Provider, they fulfilled my iPhone 6 Plus camera issues through Apple's iSight Camera Replacement Program for iPhone 6 Plus. Service was free, and fixed my iPhone's camera same day as dropping it off. Pretty polite and transparent about throughout the whole process. During my visit, at a glance, they do seem to definitely know what they're doing. read more

Computer Link is solid, reliable, dependable, and honest. They have been in business a long time. The store is simple and straightforward. Tony will get you anything you need or ask for and is upfront with the cost. I can always count on them for all computer related business needs. Keep up the great work and service you guys provide. read more

Waste of my time. My beats headphones wasn't working so instead of driving to Modesto , I decided to take it here since it was listed on the apple website. My headphones wasn't charging and computer link took the headphones in. It took two weeks to get my headphones back and they still didn't work. It didn't even look like they even did anything to them. Took them to Apple Store and 3 days later my headphones were shipped to my house fixed. I rather drive an hour out than come here . Lesson learned . read more

Was having MacBook issues and need it to be fixed ASAP! went to the computer link the same day and they provided me with great customer service. Will be coming back for computer issues in the future. read more

f I could give zero stars I would, this place is truly nothing but a scam. I dropped off my MacBook 3 almost 4 weeks ago. I was told they'd call later that day, or the next day with a diagnosis. They never called, we had to call them and was told they were "still looking at" and "ordering the part" and they'd call the next day. It went back and forth like this for almost a week before somebody else picked up and told me they hadn't even begun looking at it and he'll get to it in a few days...they finally call back and tell me what they believe is wrong with it, and they can't fix it so they'll sent it to Apple. We were told it was $80 + 20 to ship. We said okay they said they'd ship it, and we could pick it up in a week. A week and half goes by, we call to check the status, it was sitting in the shop still. My MacBook sat in their shop for 3.5 weeks. Before they told me we had to pay upfront, we had been told we could pay when we picked it up. We go to pay for it and they said it'll be $800 to ship the Mac. We picked it up and have decided to go straight to Apple, however they lost my laptop in the back and took 20 minutes to find it. This whole experience has been a nightmare , from the lying to the misplacing my very expensive laptop that I trusted them with. Save yourself the headache and go elsewhere. read more

These guys are a rip-off. Avoid them. My faithful Mac G5 finally had it's power supply give out after six years of almost nonstop running. It was brought to Computer Link to have the power supply replaced. They did this, but the computer still would not run. Their pathetic technicians didn't know why, but they would need to replace the mother board or processors to find out. $$$$. I said I wasn't blowing hundreds of dollars on a fishing expedition that any qualified tech should have been able to figure out without throwing new parts at the problem. Paid their $60 fee and took my machine home. I took my G5 down to MacDaddy in Modesto who found that the idiots at Computer Link did not replace the offset screws that mount the processor/cooling system to the mother board. Right in the repair manual, it shows that this needs to be done. The guy at MacDaddy did so, and my Mac booted right up. Cost me $26 in parts, and not the hundreds Computer Link was going to charge me. I have tried to contact Computer Link about this, but my email has gone unanswered. AVOID THEM read more

Here's what you need to know: - Left my HP laptop for service on Tuesday and I expected a status update / repair by Friday but I didn't get one. I had to follow-up on my own...boo. There were several machines ahead of mine, but I figured 2 days would be long enough for a diagnosis. Kinda my fault for assuming. - If you come here just make sure to ask how long it'll take for them to check your machine out. - Generally, it's 90 bucks an hour for labor and they won't rip you off. - They do good work, they generally take care of the problem. - Maybe instead of paying 90 bucks to come here, be proactive and spend the 90 bucks on an external drive, they're that cheap now. You don't want the techie wading through your Cabo bachelorette party pics and judging your personal choices.... read more

I seldom write reviews, but wow am I impressed with Computer Link. We are so lucky to have a local Apple certified computer repair shop here in Stockton. My battery was basically dead and it took about a week to fix (I did bring in my laptop kind of late in the week so that's probably why it took a little longer, but that's on me). They replaced the battery + keyboard! Wow it feels like a brand new laptop without the hassle of setting up a new laptop and all that tedious stuff. The repair was about $338 (service + parts) and I did not price check compared to the Apple store, but I'm sure the Apple store would have ripped me off and pressured me into buying a brand new laptop. Would recommend, but to make your life easier, send your laptop when you can afford to take a break. I brought my laptop in when I was done with the semester and made my life very stress free. read more

This is the worst service EVER BEEN TOO they WERE supposed to have my phone in and out on Friday and here comes Monday and they still haven't worked on it they say that they didn't have a technician so how would my phone be in and out the same day then they're liars DO NOT GO HERE WORST SERVICE EVER read more

Because the technology people at my college weren't certified to take apart my macbook pro, they recommended this nearby store. i accidentally spilled a little oil into the keyboard and some of it seeped in, resulting in more effort to get a key to work. I told one of the employees the situation and he told me that i could pick it up tomorrow. Later on, i looked up this store on yelp and immediately had a pang of worry, since I needed my laptop to study for midterms (which were the next week). i immediately went back there the next day to pick it up whether they were done cleaning the keyboard or not. The same employee told me they would call me later in the day, and they did. (so relieved they did) Conclusion: I got my laptop back, and the keyboard looked brand-new. However, it's still kind of hard to type on the left side of the keyboard, so i'm wondering if they really did check under the keys. Other than that, good job "finishing" in one day. It cost $30-- i think it's $1 per minute. read more

I'm updating this review and subtracting two stars from my verdict because recent developments have led to a change in opinion. My previous review stated that these guys are the best in town for computer repairs. This was two years ago. I can no longer afford to twiddle my thumbs in anticipation of a finished repair. Their technicians are good at what they do and are almost always able to solve the issue I am having. That much is not in dispute. The main problem is the empty lip service regarding when repairs will be done and keeping the consumer up to speed on progress. I am always waiting a week for a simple diagnosis, nevermind the repair, as opposed to the few days promised. And when I call, nothing is done. "Oh, sorry, we were busy. We'll get to it tomorrow." Call tomorrow? "Terribly sorry, our technician is not on site/out sick/attending a bar mitzvah." This is a perfect example of the kind of service you DON'T want to end up paying for even if the job is well done. When you work at home, who's paying the bread for a week's worth of no progress? What are you going to tell your clients? How will your kids type up their homework? That's how I feel taking my device to Computer Link. Always waiting helplessly for indefinite periods of time, hoping they're compelled to get the job done within the next week. Two years of this and I am getting fed up. read more

Seriously, it seems like these guys have a problem communicating with their customers. A week ago I took my laptop in, and asked for a status up date on it ASAP. I have heard nothing since dropping it off. Tony actually told me to look at Yelp, to see reviews. So clearly they are aware of what people say yet they still have not corrected this customer service issue. Guess it just doesn't matter that much to them. I will consider updating my review if and when it is repaired. read more

Very fast service at a very reasonable price. My iMac was giving the spinning wheel of death even when clicking on emails. Hard drive replaced and good as new. Picked up 48 hours after I had dropped off. read more

I dropped off our 3 year old Apple iMac at 10 AM on Monday. It was ready at 10 AM on Wednesday - - - of the same week!! The price was reasonable. When I got home and plugged it in I found it was working as great as it did on the day it was new. read more

Tony and staff were great, I panicked when I was having trouble with my Mac. Even though they were swamped, I received an estimate and help with a plan on how to proceed In good time. Tony's advice and coaching on a new product was so helpful and information transfer from the old computer to the new was really fast. Highly recommend them, if you are grumpy and not a patient person have some compassion, with the Covid fear, these folks are super busy and they do their very best to offer the best service they can. read more

Excellent service. Reasonable prices. Tony doesn't try to sell you something you don't need. He was also patient as I tried to explain the problem. read more

I've been taking my various Apple computers to Computer Link for many years. Tony is terrific to work with. His team is prompt and his prices are reasonable. I also like that Computer Link is an independent local business. Thanks! read more

These guys did a great job for the two occasions I was in desperate need while attending college. I'm from out of town originally so I didn't know where to go, and these guys were lifesavers. Truthfully, they're probably not the most customer-friendly as far as personal connection or follow-up courtesy calls, but they're nice enough in person and good at what they do anyway! My Key Takeaways: 1) they're Apple/Mac certified (they also accept Apple Care), which saves Mac users the long and arduous drive to Modesto - at least 45min away to the nearest Apple store 2) they can do most work with an anticipated completion date, but expect to be out of a computer for 3 days (take it in Monday, get it back Thursday morning) read more

THE BEST SERVICE I HAVE EVER RECEIVED FOR APPLE PRODUCTS!!!! Tony was so kind and selfless. He really understood my situation- I would only be home for 5 days for thanksgiving as a college student & I needed my computer fixed before heading back (since having a computer is vital considering it is nearing the end of the quarter). He reassured me that even though I was dropping it off Wednesday morning & that Thursday was a holiday (thanksgiving), I would still get my computer back that Saturday!!! And he kept his word! Such speedy repair & I had apple care so it didn't cost me a penny! Even when there were minor inconveniences- like the part for my computer not coming in on Friday, Tony personally called FedEx and harassed them until he got to talk to the FedEx driver in Stockton directly who then looked for the part and dropped it off Friday night! They were so helpful!!! I highly recommend their services, I would give them 6 stars if I could! No wait, speedy repair, and kind customer service! read more

I was in yesterday after my MacBook Pro had crashed and I couldn't get it to charge or turn on even with a full battery. I had gone to Geek Squad and they had told me that they couldn't help me unless I paid money upfront because I had Apple Care and that it was probably my motherboard that crashed. After calling Apple Care they told me it would be a very long wait for my laptop to even be seen but scheduled me an appointment with Computer Link because they also accept Apple Care under certain circumstances. After the news I was terrified I had lost all my projects I had been working endlessly on and that I wouldn't be able to fix my problem in time for my due dates. A quick phone call to Computer Link was made in hopes they could see me sooner than the Apple Care team scheduled me for and next thing I knew my laptop was fixed at Computer Link. It is clear the associates really care and will actually help you without costing an arm and a leg. With most people working from home it is essential to ensure you have your computer working properly. This business really saved me from major troubles and after my experiences with their competitors I won't even bother calling anyone else because it's a waste of time. read more

I was pleasantly surprised at how quickly and reasonably my computer was fixed. A real person answered the phone, let me bring it right in, and made arrangements for me to pick it up on a Sunday. It's working fine now. I couldn't be happier. read more

Skip this place immediately. Just go to Jim's computer or even Computer Pro's. This place can be good but it charges $60 just to even diagnose (find out) what is wrong with your computer or device. The two I mentioned above are all in Stockton as well and am pretty sure diagnose free of charge, then tell you what needs to be done. read more

All I'm going to say is that y'all better be careful cause they forget to put screws back in laptops. I read the reviews here that they did that to someone else and I'm thinking they'd fix their mistake but no. They did the same thing to me. So be careful. read more

I had a power issue with my Macbook Pro (2014 model). I did not want to drive 45 minutes to the nearest Apple Store so I chose to look up the nearest Apple Authorized Service Providers and found Computer Link here in Stockton. Front desk service was quick, my laptop was checked in, and I was given a timeline for the repair service. I was assigned a Certified Mac Technician named Tom (Thomas Groom) and his service was excellent. He was knowledgeable, thorough, experienced, and helpful. Even with his packed schedule of repairs and service calls to the bay area, he was able to give me a call to update me on the status of the repair multiple times (he left messages when I could not answer the phone). My computer was repaired quickly and returned to me in a timely manner. I leave 5 stars for Tom's excellence, professionalism, and service. read more

After spending hours with Apple Support to solve a problem with opening emails and getting nowhere, I went to Computer Link (an authorized Apple store). Within 15 minutes, Micah solved my problem. For $30 you can spend 30 minutes with an employee to resolve your issue. Micah was most helpful and explained the steps he was taking in the problem solving process. Computer Link has always given me excellent customer service. read more

The manager (tall Indian guy) and Micah were both very kind and did an excellent job resolving my situation with my MacBook Air. When I brought it in I basically had a 1k dollar paperweight that would barely turn on and function. When I picked it up it was as good as new. Great service. Thank you guys! read more

Brought my computer in because the DC jack is loose. I don't know if they *actually* opened my laptop in question because when we got the receipt for repair it said "plugged in universal adapter and it charged fine!!!". They recommended I order a new adapter because they said my old one was loose. We did, and it worked more or less but it still was loose and the charging is INCREDIBLY spotty. They recommended we get a Samsung charger since my laptop is a samsung... And we did. The diagnosis was $60, and the new adapter was ~$25. Bringing the total to $80 alone to fixing this issue in question. It's frustrating using my laptop cause it's more or less the same as when I took it in! The service was incredibly speedy, took it in for a day and the next day I got it back but... Urgh. I would have mind waiting if it meant this issue would be fixed! read more

My experience with this shop has been excellent! I took my 4 year old HP laptop in for repair of a broken hinge and I also needed a new battery. I was given a quote for hinges, a battery, and approximate labor. The technician called me the next day to advise that the computer needed a new/refurbished lower case. (The hinge had pulled totally from the case and could not be reconnected.) We quickly reviewed the numbers and it was apparent to me that the repair, without labor, would be approximately 45% of the cost of a new computer. Not worth it for me. When I picked up the computer 3 days later, Randy took a considerable amount of time to review an issue I was having on my other computer. I found everyone in the shop to be: pleasant, helpful, quick to respond and the pricing was fair! I will return read more

If Apple website tells you to come here because it's Apple certified DONT. They will just mess up your stuff and tell you to go to the Apple Store to get it fixed. Went in for an iPhone 6 plus iSight camera replacement since it was recalled and free of charge. Setup an appointment through Apple repair site and computer link was authorized so I took it there. 2 hours later after they quoted me 45-1hr. When the iPhone was done it seemed to glitched out randomly after a few hours. Thought it was the screen because they said my screen was bad so took it to another repair shop and they opened it in front of me to find out that there were screws missing which maybe caused the screen to glitch and blue screen? On top of that the ribbon cable wasn't put in right. After the cable was reseated it seems to be better than before but still glitches out, It's only held down with 3 screws. They had the nerves to tell me it glitches/blue screen because it was jailbroken.....that's a BS answer, never had it happened til I got it back from them. Called the Apple support center and they said not to trust 3rd party Apple certified repair shops. Just bring it into the Apple Store. I won't be back to this shop and I'll just head onto Apple to see if they can fix that problem. Update: went to the Apple Store and gave them a receipt for the work computer link did and told them the situation, an hour later they handed me my iPhone and all seems fine, they said 2 screws was put in wrong, 1 screws was missing and replaced it. One screw was striped and stuck inside the board. But happy to see no more blue screen. read more
