I know less than nothing about my desktop, so when it started having problems I went into denial... then I tried to get "How to fix my Mac" guidance from Claude/Ai, aka the blind leading the blind. Finally, I brought it in. I explained how I needed it to function and what was bothering me about the performance. Bert and Dre were so helpful, asked great questions, and checked in with me after the diagnosis was complete. $70 bucks was a steal to have a working desktop again. Cheers, you guys! Thanks for your help. read more

Amazing service! Highly recommend! A few of the keys stopped working on my computer they fixed it for free and were super fast!

This is my first review on Yelp, ever! I figured that it is a worthy one. After a decade with my Macbook Pro computer that got me through college and graduate school, it finally died on me. Correction: the screen of the computer died and the internal hard drive signaled to me, that it is definitely the right time to get a new computer for my life, moving forward. This highly stressful time in my life, filled with headaches, was made easier by the guys that work at mac tonic. Not only did they speedily and successfully move all of the important documents from my time in college, graduate school, and all of the records relevant for my academic career, they also processed and organized the files into appropriate folders. I purchased a new used MacBook Pro computer from them, with the more updated Monterey OS system installed. It has been several months since I left with my new used computer. So far, there have been almost no problems. I say almost because I suspect that there might be unknown parties who are still attempting to hack my computer. I highly doubt that it is the guys from mac tonic. read more

On Apple's recommendation I took my computer to Best Buy, had to wait an hour even though I had an appointment, just to be told they couldn't fix it. Ugh. Took it next to Mac Tonic. 1st thing I noticed was the genuine smiles of the folks there, a real Eugene vibe in the best way. They identified my MacBook's problems and fixed everything quickly and at a most reasonable cost. I urge you to go here first and save yourself some grief. Friendly people, best prices, expert service, what more can one ask? read more

I recently had one of those nightmarish computer breakdowns--my laptop went dead to the world all of a sudden, right before a business trip. The Mac Tonic folks fixed it *within three hours*--and they were super chill and kind about it all, to boot. Five stars. You saved my day, Mac Tonic. read more

Great service and informative staff. Will be coming back for all of our business tech needs.

Response time, professionalism, friendliness and knowledge. I would take my apple products there anytime.

The guys at Mac Tonic untangled Xfinity's own upgrade mess that was choking my computer, did the job speedily and well, were patient with this frustrated custiomer ad even did me a deal on a backup laptop. Full marks for everything, and thanks! read more

The folks working there were great. helped me a ton and quickly. The person at the counter was super informative and personable.

Wow!!!! I just got my MacBook Air back from these geniuses! So impressed. It had some malware that was making it so frustrating to use my laptop! These guys repaired it, took off the malware, checked everything and PRESTO......It is like new! The charge was negligible. I thought I would have to buy a new MAC. MacTonic is honest and they do what they say without trying to tack on un-needed extras or sell you a new (refurbished) one!!!!! THANK YOU To MacTonic! I hope you are proud of your excellent work and your business!!!! read more

Something caused my Mac to eat files and hide others but my antivirus found nothing... until the Mac Tonic cavalry came over the hill... They gave it a spring clean, disabled a misbehaving antivirus and serviced the whole thing speedily and inexpensively. I recovered photographs and files I did NOT want to lose and have added Burt to the pantheon of cyber saints. read more

I've used Mac Tonic a few times previously. The last time they worked on one of my Macs they didn't plugin the bluetooth card all the way which I had to do myself. No harm no foul, that's an easy job but you would think they would bench test machines once the repair is completed. They obviously do not. I needed a new machine to have a memory upgrade installed. I was told it took around 10 minutes and the labor COST was INCLUDED in the parts cost IN WRITING. I then am told the Labor is not free and will be a hundred dollars. The memory quote was already a hundred twenty five dollars over current market rate. This is simply bait and switch. If Mac Tonic is willing to put things in writing and then try and change the repair cost then that tells me everything I need to know about them. This is not an honest trustworthy company and I do not recommend them. read more

They had pretty poor business practices told me that they would have my computer take extra time to sterilize it cause of the Corona virus or some stupidity. I mean they have poor business practices. I rather not waste my time here. read more

I took two Macs for repair. They were very unfriendly (I'm normal and not demanding; also not a college chick). Sold me a new battery: it lasted four months of normal use. I won't go back. read more

I had been told by three Apple support guys that my iMac needed a new hard drive. I called around and through conversations and price I chose Mac tonic. They were the only company that even suggested it might not need a new hard drive. I dropped my Mac off on a Tuesday and they called me on Thursday. They said they fixed some corrupted files and did some other things, and then told me my hard drive was fine. What great news for me! It saved my at least $200! They also back up all my stuff and down loaded the newest operating system. I say without any reservations that if you need your Mac repaired, don't even consider any other repair companies. You will not find more honest, knowledgeable, or professional technicians than those at Mac tonic. As you can tell, I'm one very satisfied customer. Yours truly, Jeff E Cummins read more

I would like to thank Zach, Marcus, and Ivan at Mac Tonic for their great help under trying circumstances to resolve some serious computer problems I have been having during the pandemic. I have been going to Mac Tonic for a few years and was always happy with their prices and the quality of their work. Due to changes brought about by coronavirus I was suddenly pressed into developing "distance Iearning" lessons for a Coos Bay Community College forestry class I have volunteered to help the past three years. This necessitated working six and seven days a week on my computer developing online lesson plans with videotaped lectures, five "virtual" field trips to the Elliott State Forest, and daily email correspondence -- and no budget. At the same time, my computer began seriously malfunctioning and safety quarantines in effect at Mac Tonic required a minimum five-day turn-around, and at least four days to do a diagnosis. Because of my limited budget and great need to do extensive computer work on a daily basis to develop, test, and distribute the new distance learning lessons and weekly virtual field trips, I couldn't afford to not have a computer to work with. The short-term solution was to purchase a refurbished iMac from Mac Tonic to continue. The price was very fair but, unfortunately, it also had some problems with the new hard drive and I called in complaints almost immediately -- and well before the 90-day warranty expired. But I still couldn't afford to stop daily operations to have the computer quarantined and repaired. Fortunately, the refurbished computer was good enough, with some serious babying, to limp through my classroom obligations, keep up with my daily email correspondence, and finish a detailed article by its deadline. A few weeks ago I called Zach -- months after the warranty had expired -- and he took the computer in immediately and prepared a loaner laptop for me to use while it was in the shop. Due to my early calls and to the quality of Mac Tonic's warranty, there was no charge for the loaner computer, the repair, or some excellent software help by Zach and Marcus -- and I now have (once again) a smoothly operating computer and complete trust in the sincerity and ability of the folks at Mac Tonic. There was a problem, it was fixed to everyone's satisfaction, and I am now a customer for life. Highly recommended. read more

This place is better than 5 stars. I been using Apple products for the better part of 20 years and wherever I lived in the country I always find a store to work on my Mac's if ever needed and this is the best store I've been to! The staff are super nice and very knowledgible about all Apple products. I've stopped in a few times to just ask questions and they are always willing to work with me or answer my questions if they have time. They've even done some diagnostic stuff for free just looking into something to see if there was a problem or potential problem which I am super grateful for. Ive also had them do numerous jobs where the computer was checked in and worked on and all the work they did was done in a very timely manner and the work is still holding up to this day. They have some very nice and very reasonably priced refurbished items for sale. I've never ever considered buying refurbished devices but after seeing their items for sale and how great they look I now always check to see what they got and if I go in and if I see the right machine I would buy with complete confidence as they stand by their work. Just really nice, down to earth people who are really good at what they do and I wanna say I'm not a tech guy in the least I actually am not the biggest fan of technology but obviously need to use some devices in my life however I never feel outta place their as they welcome everyone of all different knowledge levels and never have a snobby attitude if I don't know something. I wouldn't go anywhere else. read more

While they USED to take 2 days to put in a battery and to run the system full steam before releasing it, they no longer do this, and I for one, am thankful. We had to have our motherboard replaced and had to upgrade our clock speed on our computer. Their prices were better than anyone else, AND they were conscientious about doing a good job. And it came back in excellent shape. Thank you! read more

The individuals at Mac Tonic have always been a great help to me. When I was stuck in a technological snafu I was able to take my Macbook in to them and have them diagnose it within minutes. Even with other patrons in the store, they gave my device the attention it needed. Turns out the Macbook's display was dead and would take quite a bit of $$$ to fix. They suggested a used Macbook Pro they had just refurbished, which was in great shape all around. Even if things can't be fixed right there, you will most likely have other options before you leave the store. Highly recommended over any of the more "corporate" Mac repair options in the town! read more

Picture this: You're on a road trip with your 11-year-old daughter touring the Pacific Northwest. While you and your daughter are exploring the tide pools at Cape Perpetua, you are SLAMMED by what the locals call a "sneaker" wave. SLAMMED. DRENCHED. For reasons unknown to me, I pulled my daughter (who had been knocked to her knees) from the froth and didn't give a thought to my iPhone (which I had for all of father/daughter photo ops). Crazy, I know. Anyway, when we got back to the car my phone was dark and nonresponsive; naturally, I thought the worst. As we were passing through Eugene on the way to Portland, I found Mac Tonic on Yelp and stopped in. The tech (I didn't get his name) took my phone, blew out 1/8th of a tsp. of the Pacific Ocean, cleaned the contacts with alcohol and told me to leave the phone on it's side for 24 hours and then plug it into the wall; so, that's what I did...and it worked! All this for the princely sum of: no charge. That's right...No. Charge. Obviously, I compensated the tech, but still. That's my story. Excellent service. Excellent value. Give Mac Tonic your business! read more

Have you ever not wanted to write a review for fear of getting too many people going to a place you know to be amazing, because it might ruin your amazing experience (too crowded... longer wait time, etc.)? That's how I feel about reviewing Mac Tonic. Now I've divulged my biggest Yelp secret -- that I won't review places that I find too awesome to want others to go there: Sometimes I just want to be the only one lavished with wonderful product and service forever and not have to fight throngs of people, you know? But, deep down I know the folks at mac tonic are awesome enough to handle more customers and they certainly deserve them. read more

I am all set to drop off my old workhorse iMac and pay big bucks to have it fixed after leaving it at MacTonic and waiting for a couple of weeks. Al (I think his name was) jumps into the front display part of the store, sets up my computer, looks at a few of the issues I was concerned about, tells me how to fix 'em, and is about to address a different problem on a different piece of hardware, when his phone alarm goes off meaning he needs to go pick up his kids from school. He jumps into the back room, pulls out another wonderful tech person, Jean, who finishes off by explaining how I can fix my other problem. No charge. All smiles. If you have an Apple computer and need help, and are within 90 miles of Eugene, go here. read more

This place is fantastic. Super knowledgeable, helpful and friendly. I was seen right away and had my problem with my Macbook addressed within minutes. Highly recommend! read more

Great prices, great work and took care of all my Mac needs!

These filks bought an iMac from me on eBay. They claimed it had a bad hard drive and demanded their money back. When I got the iMac back, it worked perfectly. I wouldn't trust them to repair anything as they couldn't boot a perfectly working iMac. read more

I got a Yelp account just so I could review this awesome store. My laptop had a run-in with a beverage, and I decided to try this place instead of the other Mac-related store in town. They took my poor, wet laptop, dried it out (for free), ordered a new part and lent me a keyboard and mouse to use with my semi-functioning computer in the interim. The part only took a few days to come in once they'd ordered it and they installed it within 24 hours. They found a minor software issue and told me to bring it back in next week to make sure it's running okay, and when I told them my work schedule might prevent me from picking it up until later in the week, they said "Oh, we can just come to your work and drop it off for you." Everyone is friendly. Everyone is knowledgeable. The service is stellar. The turnaround time is fast. Go here for any Mac-related needs in Eugene. Seriously. Accept no substitutes. read more

I felt like their pricing was fair, they were accurate with their time to fix my laptop, and their customer service was good. I remember standing in line to pick up my lap top and there was a more difficult customer in front of me, and the chick behind the counter did a great job in communicating with him even though he was upset. I also asked about a cord for another family laptop that got chewed up by my dog, they gave me a free used cord. It didn't end up working so gave it back, but it was a super nice gesture that I really appreciated. The space is clean, modern, and I love that it is in Eugene!! read more

My 7 year old MacBook Pro died and I had no clue what was wrong. About a week before it died, I had knocked over a glass of water on the table next to the Mac and it flooded the computer. I had a towel next to where I was working, so sopped up the water immediately and did not think anything about it. Colin was very helpful and thought the problem could be a cable to the hard drive. He checked in my computer. Estimated time to fix was sometime the following week. Later that same day, Chris called to say the computer had liquid in it and the cable was also broken. Chris explained the cable could be fixed, but if the cable were replaced without removing the DVD player and rearranging the interior components, the cable would break again in a few months. We agreed to the rearranging of components as part of the fix. The computer also needed a new battery and a back-up drive. I remembered the spilled water. Chris was able to dry the Mac and replace the broken cable and the old battery. He also checked the computer for any malware and set up the back-up drive. The power cord had broken again which they were also able to supply. My computer was ready in a couple of days. I amazed at the rapid turn around time and the reasonable cost of the repairs. Jean greeted me when I returned to get the computer and checked out my purchases. My Mac runs like new again. All the staff were wonderful and professional. They took time and care to assist the people who were in the store before me. When it was my turn, they proceeded to give me the same wonderful, personal service. I would definitely recommend and use Mac Tonic again. And keep all beverages away from my computer. read more

I called this place after searching for a Mac repair shop, Marcus answered, not only did he help me figure out exactly what I needed, he was real, he was kind, and he went way above and beyond. Personally I would not go anywhere else.highly recommended, and not just by me.. read more

amazing customer service. just wow. The guy working on my computer stayed an hour and a half late without me asking he could just tell by my angst that I was in a bind and stayed late to make sure that it was fixed. on top if that, the pricing was the cheapest i'd found after days of online research. The staff was knowledgeable and respectful. I find a lot of electronics department people talk down to me not knowing that I work in the SaaS IT industry. that doesn't mean I know what the Hecks from or going on with the MacBook so I very much appreciate the explanation given to me. it was not insulting yet informative and heavily preventive information. when i asked questions the staff's ability to clarify their understanding and determining the endgame of what I was actually asking despite my inability to properly form questions let alone organize my thoughts, was impressive a.f. if you have Apple product in need of TLC you're not going to find a better place in terms of price service and turnaround time than Mac tonic, luckily I already did the research for you hee hee read more

They have serviced my computers for the past 8 years, they are trusted to fix and optimize the tools we rely on to make a living. They have always done excellent work, their pricing is fair and competitive... look nowhere else! read more

After a horrible experience with my iPhone 7 plus replacement I turned to Mac Tonic to help me problem solve a complicated (for me) restore of a possibly corrupt back up of the phone on my Macbook. Jean calmly assured me that there were several possible solutions and then she took me through the steps of the restore that saved my settings, content and passwords. Apple relief is Mac Tonic! Highly recommended! read more

When I moved to Eugene I was pretty bummed that there was no Apple store here. Ivan and Mac Tonic changed that because the customer service and the work they do are exceptional, without all the hassle of an Apple store Fantastic prices and workmanship. An overall superior experience to any other place or individual ---they are truly the best! read more

Contrary to popular beliefs, I was utterly disappointed by Mac tonic. Due to all the rave reviews here, I decided to take our desktop here for a "no power on" diagnosis. Yes I know this is a simple solution most times, but my lack of time and the fact that my other 2 computers all failed at once left me needing some help. Mistake. When I dropped off the machine, I casually mentioned that we were completely without a computer in the house (yikes) because of multiple failures, hoping the gal there would pick up on that and maybe expedite the process to whatever degree possible. Also, I didnt want to be the customer that thinks that they should drop everything when I come in. I know how that goes, noone likes an asshat. Were my subtle cues picked up? Not a chance. In fact, a mac-tonic tech left us a message on Saturday, nearly three weeks after having dropped off the unit, congratulating himself for his heroism in having worked on our machine over the weekend, which they don't normally do, but the mastermind did manage to discern that we had a bad power cord. Wow. Three weeks to find a bad power cord. So amazing. I show up to retrieve the offending machine and am held up for 15 mins, even though I'm the only one there, because THEY CAN'T GET THE PRINTER TO WORK! Well be still my heart. I left without a friggin receipt, never to return. Word to those who own their businesses - you work weekends, you work nights, you work every waking hour. Thats how small business works. YOUR'E NOT DOING ANYONE A FAVOR, YOUR'E DOING YOUR JOB. You do not call your customer to congratulate yourself for doing what you are paid to do in the first place. Also, if it is taking you three weeks to sort out a bad power cord? You need to examine your workflow. That's ridiculous. Summary- This place is a critical mass of incompetence. Avoid if at all possible. read more

You have two options for Apple repair in Eugene, and only one of them doesn't involve shipping your laptop to Portland. Welcome to Mac Tonic - they won't charge you an arm and a leg on repairs. They're the kind of guys that will see if they have an extra keyboard key in the back instead of ordering a whole new keyboard, which is am important distinction if you're a veteran of the Apple repair process. I've dealt with repair shops in many different parts of the country, and barring an actual Apple retail location with a REALLY, REALLY lenient genius, this is as good as it gets. Their data recovery also goes an extra step above-and-beyond most data recovery techniques, and while it's not electron-microscope data recovery, it's still great. read more
