MacMan is at least a 6 star kind of operation! Jeremy is totally the guy to sort out problems, glitches and systemic issues. My sense is that more knowledge gets clipped off when he trims his nails, than i'll ever have with the 20+ years of using macs. He is iOS incarnate and has helped me remotely as well as on location. He is a good listener and great problem solver. His prices are not the lowest, but they are a bargain for what you get. Having been burned by bottom feeding, he is a welcome relief and savior of everything mac in my life. read more

I contacted Macman two years ago for help with my email that were always getting stuck and no one else could fix . He came in to my office and fixed everything ! updated all of our computers and synced everything to run perfectly. Since then I have recommended Jeremy and his team to my closest friends and Buisness associates. I find him to be extremely professional. He is determined to keep all of my systems up and running perfectly. Thanks to his help my Buisness keeps running like a well oiled machine. read more

My experience with MacMan was excellent. I was having a wireless problem with my Macbook for months- I took it several places (including an Apple store) and no one could give me an answer without taking the computer apart. I found Jeremy on Yelp and was able to see him right away. He narrowed down my issue within minutes. I advised him I was on a pretty strict budget (I'm a grad student at USC) and he directed to the best priced place in the area to have a diagnostic done. I was ecstatic with Jeremy's service. He's honest, quick and knows Mac's better than anyone I've met. I am extremely grateful he referred me to a place more affordable on my budget (even thought his prices are already reasonable)- that honesty is hard to find-and my computer is now fixed for 1/2 of what I expected to pay. Amazing! I highly recommend MacMan! read more

Jeremy is a magic man. My computer was running so slow. He knows EVERYTHING about Macs. He fixed the problem, and he also showed me lots of tricks to help maintain a fast computer. Now it's like a new machine. He is also really cool and nice to work with. He's helpful, he's funny, and bottom line: he's amazing and knowing what's wrong with your computer. We'll definitely use him again for those of us in the office with Macs. read more

Jeremy, the Macman, is my go-to-guy for hard drive repair. I've had two very important hard drives fail and I went to the Macman for help both times. The last time my hard drive failed I was in North Carolina and overnighted Jeremy the drive. I could have taken the drive to someone in North Carolina but I trusted Jeremy and therefore sent him my drive. He examined the drive (free of charge) and though my drive was dead and therefore I couldn't pay him to fix it, he took his time to explain the problem to me and referred me to a data-recovery specialist he knew. Jeremy is very nice, friendly, and honest. He treats you with respect and runs a very ethical and personable business. 5 stars. read more

Thank you MacMan, Need I say more, No all of their awesome reviews speak for themselves. MacMan "It does" read more

MacMan, ya did it again! Jeremy was a super friendly guy and extremely knowledgable about all things Mac. He did an excellent job at restoring my busted laptop. I would definitely recommend him for all your Mac and iDevice needs! read more

Lat year when my macbook went into a Defcon-5 government-grade security lockdown and all of the Geniuses at apple told me it was a lost cause, I found Macman. This was my experience: He insightful, communicative, eloquent &articulate... reasonable, accessible and Infinitely patient. Where other techs have a propensity to be noisome & meretricious, Jeremy is a genuine talent. A true Artificer in his craft...a canonical heavyweight in the Mac-Tech landscape. He not only retrieved everything I was told was lost in FileVault.. but he updated all of my software and made sure I knew how to use it. I recommend him to every single person I know...even if they dont have computers. He's THAT good. read more

I had a project.... and a computer that would not work with me. Needed someone to step in and negotiate between us. Found Jeremy on Apple's consultant site, Yelped him, and called him. He not only completed understood my issues, but solved them over the phone, easily. A pleasant first experience, alas, probably not the last! At least I have found good hands to support the future issues. Highly recommend! read more

It's no wonder this guy gets 5 stars, I've never had such a pleasant experience with a computer Man. I foolishly had no backups of my last year's worth of files, and as a photographer this was cause for panic when my laptop died. Fortunately Jeremy was able to save everything. He also talked with me about how I use my computer and helped me decide on the right machine within my budget. Once I had my new computer he transferred everything over, including software so I didn't have to go through the hassle of reinstalling everything. So helpful, made my life really easy. read more

MacMan is just a solid guy for your Mac needs. He is my go to guy and has been for years. Recently I recommended him to a very important business man who is both a partner and owner at my company. He said that MacMan handled all of his issues quickly and easily. Fixing issues he had been plagued with for years! MacMan made me look good! Thank you sir! read more

I called Jeremy at MacMan because my girlfriend's iPhone had malfunctioned during a software upgrade. The phone would only work if we reset and erased everything thus potentially losing some valuable photos. Jeremy patiently and clearly talked us through making sure the phone was backed up and rebooted in the right way and answered a bunch of my other random Macbook questions. It all worked beautifully. This guy knows a million tricks and solutions to all Apple stuff. And he's quick to get to the point so you don't have to bear through some outsourced off shore tech-support guy with thick accent asking you to unplug your modem four time for no reason. What the hell more do you want then that? read more

Macman was awesome. I sent them an email inquiring about a service, and he responded within less than an hour. Advised me that while he would've liked to do the job, read more

"It's a bird! It's a plane! It's..." ...either a bird or a plane. MacMan doesn't wear his powers on his sleeve like that lofty do-gooder from Metropolis. He will, however, save the day should you find yourself between a Mac and a hard place near Los Angeles. When trouble brews, mild-mannered Jeremy Falk becomes MacMan, an OS Lion-tamer more agile than Isaac Newton with an Apple. After a consultation on the health of my ailing MacBook Pro, during which he offered a ton of helpful advice, Jeremy took no money, encouraging me instead to seek warranty repair through Apple and telling me exactly what to say to keep them honest. He then followed up later to ask after the welfare of myself and my device. Wow. This guy is the difference between lip service and customer service. Faster than a solid-state hard drive! More powerful than an Intel processor! Able to leap Mac towers in a single bound! Thank you, MacMan! read more

My hard drive was crashing. I reviewed the symptoms with Jeffrey, who had returned my call in less than five minutes. Symptoms were repeated disk permission repairs, refusing to wake from sleep mode, taking forever to re-start or shut down, often not shutting down unless I used the power button, and overall slow performance. Jeff confirmed that my guess about my hard drive dying were accurate. We discussed options, and he explained to me that he didn't do the type of repair I needed, and he recommended me to a very good shop. He told me that Apple had identified a problem with some hard drives in computers like mine and suggested I call them first to see if the issue was part of that repair program. (I did, it wasn't, but it still helped) Great man, honest, very knowledgable, really glad I called him. read more

I would be truly lost without MacMan. I am a designer and my IMac is what helps me pay the bills. When my hard drive took a dump, I first took my IMac to another Mac storefront company. I will not name names, but although the service people there where very cordial they weren't very attentive. If it wasn't for my own persistence and concern for getting it back, I would have never known it was not being worked on. I had them stop all work on my IMac at that service department and went searching for a good alternative repair person on Yelp. I came across THE MacMan - Jeremy. As soon as we got in contact he was immediately on the case. MacMan is a lifesaver! He got my hard drive replaced and recovered all my files! He was very helpful, smart and patient and I highly recommend MacMan to anyone with Mac problems. He is the best. read more

Had an emergency when my storage was almost full and all desktop files disappeared. Called Jeremy and he got back quickly, took charge and fixed the problem and then some (upgraded my O.S., deletws unused files as well as teaching some basics that improved overall performance). It required multiple calls and screen sharing, but he was always avail and knew what to do (even talked me through changes during his lunch). Can't say enough good things... MacMan is the mac daddy for sure! read more

I created a Yelp account just to say how AMAZING the MacMan is. He knows everything, he teaches you everything, and he is super fast. I came to him with a broken laptop that wouldn't even start, and in under two hours I had a fast working wonderful computer with all the updated rad stuff you could imagine. I feel like he finally connected me to the world of technology, or just to the WORLD. This man is the master of his craft, and you can trust him with your precious computer, because he actually gives a S#*t. love it! SO HAPPY! Thank you MacMan! read more

Jeremy is the MacMan, alright. Although we're two states apart, he remotely tackled my Mac issues and solved problems I didn't even know I had. My system is now operating faster, cleaner and more efficiently. He is not cheap, but every minute he is with you he is working like a machine and explaining what and why he's doing what he's doing in terms anyone can understand. Worth every penny. read more

I just got an Ipad2 as a birthday present. As I struggled with getting familiar with it and became more and more frustrated, I got a call from a friend, who happens to be "MacMan" . This is like superman showing up just as you are about to get hit by a train. MacMan patiently helped me get set up on my Ipad , sync it with my other Mac devices and showed me how to "drive". I learned a lot. So much so that I must have him return to give me a refreshment exercise. As much as Mac products are "intuitive" this was driving me CRAZY. Macman saved the day! read more

The Macman is a great guy to help with any sort of frustration you might be dealing with concerning computer technology that you don't fully understand. Because he's SO knowledgeable about the work he does, he was able to help me with a whole host of unrelated problems and questions I had, ranging from recommendations about future Apple purchases, to my husband's failed hard drive, to a fussy wireless printer, to file transfer from my outdated PC. Each time he has helped me with some new computer issue, Jeremy has never made me feel stupid or clueless for asking questions. He's spent lots of time on the phone with me and has even shared my computer screen through chat in order to help me with issues I just couldn't grasp. Throughout all of my interactions with Jeremy, he has treated me with kindness, patience, understanding, and genuine concern. Instead of hastily dumping a ton of information on me, he makes sure to ask all the right questions to determine what's best for a future course of action. The result of that comprehensive sort of treatment is that I felt comfortable with the decisions I was making, and I learned a lot in the process. Jeremy's as much a teacher as he is a computer guy, and I'd recommend him to anybody who wants to feel less helpless when dealing with annoying technology issues! read more

MacMan literally sat down with me for an hour, took apart my computer and explained what everything was and why he was doing what he was doing to diagnose my computer problem. I am much more knowledgable and confident about computers now because of him. I cannot recommend him highly enough! read more

The MacMan is amazing!!! My Macbook Pro would not start, and I thought I would need to buy a whole new machine. The MacMan had my computer working in NO TIME. He identified the problem with my computer quickly, even when the "geniuses" at Apple could not. Gave me some suggestions of places I could fix the computer, and kept in touch with me the whole way to make sure that my problem was solved. Not only did he get my computer working again, he gave me valuable advice to get my computer to perform better than it has been in the past 3 years. Talking with him for 30 while he worked on my computer made it clear he is very knowledgeable with Apple products, and he has a great passion for working with them. As the name suggests, the MacMan is the man for any Mac related issue. read more

Jeremy is not only easy to work with and extremely responsive, but so exceptionally knowledgeable about all things Mac. He is my go-to resource for clients in Los Angeles who rely on their computers for their livelihood. He solves problems, period. You 100% want him on your team. read more

MacMan/Jeremy was super knowledgeable and helpful. I was having issues with booting up my Mac Pro 2013. Jeremy walked me through the steps over the phone of rebooting on the backend which solved the problem (that I thought would be really expensive to fix). I offered to pay him for his time but he said not to worry. I will definitely use Jeremy to help on my Mac repairs moving forward. A++ read more

Having tried and been disappointed by SEVERAL Apple consultants in the Los Angeles area over the past two years, I can honestly say that Jeremy knows his stuff. He quite simply knows just what he's doing. That's something of a rarity, as I have discovered. Having said that, I think a couple of pointers should be kept in mind when dealing with any professional, including Jeremy. First, you need to be able to communicate the problem as clearly as possible. If you can't do this, it makes the job harder, and I suppose for some people, paying by the hour while Jeremy fishes around trying to figure out the problem can be daunting. Of course, if you simply can't explain what's going on, or if you want to have a wide-range existential discussion about how to make your computer better suit your needs, then it's going to take a while. And you'll rightly have to pay for that time. Second, as someone who really knows his stuff, Jeremy might sometimes forget that what HE knows and what YOU know might be different. I have found that by speaking up and saying, "I don't get it. Why do I need to do it that way? Or can I do it this way instead?" and Jeremy will stop and see the question through my eyes. And explain my alternatives. Third, all of us have a different level of what we want to know. Some of us really WANT to know HOW the signal comes from the DSL, WHERE it goes into the router, WHAT settings are best for the Airport's frequencies, and WHY my computer needs an IP number to function, and WHETHER I should back up in the cloud or on my Time Capsule. Some of us don't care about ANY of that: we want to know how to use the computer-as-tool -- to get Pages working, how to write, how to send the draft to the editor, and how to answer e-mail, etc., and we don't care about how big electrons are. I think it's important to let Jeremy know where you are on that spectrum, so he can adjust how much explaining he needs to do. Jeremy is highly recommended. A good problem solver. read more

I thought my Macbook Air had reached its end. A full startup disk. SLOW doesn't even begin to describe the problem. Was going to chuck it all in and go buy a new one when I found MacMan here on Yelp. He knew exactly what to do and saved the day...along with making me change my internet provider. SUPER SONIC is now an accurate descriptor. Couldn't be happier, and can't imagine navigating any of my Mac world without him. A life saver. read more

My desktop went white and I immediately went into a frenzy. Nothing had been backed up (idiotic, I know), and I'm in a panic. I spoke to a friend and he referred me to Jeremy, and I immediately called him. As crazy as I was sounding on the phone, Jeremy relaxed me and assured me that all is not lost. I also told him that I have a macbook that hasn't been used for the past year cause it was so slow. We made an appointment to bring both. My hope was for Jeremy to retrieve and back up my data, but he surpassed all expectations. He fixed my desktop and laptop, and made me feel like I just purchased 2 new machines. For the 1st time in a year, I am using my macbook again, and my desktop feels like a dream. Jeremy was more then just nice....he patiently explained to me what was going to be done, and made sure I was clear on the process. Most importantly, he didn't make me feel like an idiot. He was worth every penny, and sooo nice!!! Thanks again Jeremy! read more

By far a genius- a madman (in a good way of course) of Macs! =) It was truly inspirational to see MacMan to the rescue.. I was having issues with my outdated iBook G4 and needed data recovery/transfer and I looked no further than the 5-star rated specialist [of all the other Mac-Specialists], and I will never look back.. Only glitch* is that I was in dire need for help in speed so I overlooked the fact that there may be a price to pay for his talents, which there was for a struggling artist as myself.. but it was worth it! Jeremy is compassionate and will listen to your concerns. Thank you again! :) read more

Jeremy started working with me on problems migrating data from my old iMac to my new one. Then he didn't get back to me when he said he would and left me hanging for six days! I went to another repair service. Given all his great reviews, I expected much better service, but I was extremely disappointed. read more

If you have any mac questions, needs, issues, etc.. look no further. Macman is the only one I trust to give me straight answers, fix issues quickly, and handle all my computer needs. read more

MacMan rocks. Upgraded my Mac, transformed my world. Two snaps up in an "M" formation.

Hmm. No. Did a lot of stuff I didn't ask him to do, without asking first. Then charged me for lots of time I had not planned on or budgeted for. And did talk down to me. "Who told you to get that?" "You don't strike me as a Mac person." Two hours and $400 later, the Mac is a smidge faster, perhaps. But I could not in good conscience recommend Jeremy to friends, sorry. read more

Thank god there are people out there who have done more to be a professional than take a test as the representatives at the "Genius" bar do. Jeremy is a professional, enough said. read more

Finally... someone who got it right! We've had several people out, but MacMan was the only one who understood our needs and our multitude of problems with our various Apple products and WiFi. He not only got it all straightened out, but has given us a foundation upon which to continue to grow our businesses. Now all our products recognize each other and work together. That's a BIG deal! -- Best of all, Macman listens well, explains well, and invites you to watch and learn. And very kind. We'll never have anyone else except MacMan come out to work on our computers, iPhones, iPad, printers and WiFi again. "Everything Mac. No Worries" is right! read more

I have never seen a better mac expert at work. Clear, calm, direct, and very smart. I've seen him work about three miracles over the years, and I've decided not to take my Apple stuff to anyone else. I would far rather pay MacMan to get it right the first time, rather than take a chance on Apple's so called "geniuses." read more

Jeremy's one-man one-stop operation, MacMan, is wondrous! After decades of being a PC-user, he got me hooked to the other side and influenced my tech geek decisions. While my iPhone and Mac have not yet failed me, he's always available for quick advice, tips, and trouble-shooting. His services are without equal! read more

This guy deserves all the yelp accolades . He is dead honest, not a crooked bone in his body and actually asked me to order the parts myself rather than ordering it himself and marking it up . Told me it's a better idea to buy a new machine even though it would have meant loss of business for him . Great communication skills and responds quickly , and lives in an area that has street parking . On top of all this he's great guy to talk to - if you had a couple of friends like him you'd be set for life read more

Jeremy is by far the best Mac tech I have ever worked with. He knows exactly how to fix whatever issue I'm having and ensures my whole system is running smoothly and impeccably before concluding the job. He has helped me clean up both of my Macs and my iPhone and set up my wireless network. I have spent countless hours on the phone with AppleCare feeling as though the tech was no more knowledgeable than myself. Jeremy knows his stuff and clearly loves his work. I can't recommend him strongly enough. read more

Apple Store could'nt fix it. Apple Dealer could'nt fix it. Apple Support was a bust. Called MacMan and he was a dream come true after 4 months of computer hell. He came over on my time schedule, whipped off the cover of my MacPro and went right to work. Now it works great. Boy I sure wasted my time before I met MacMan. I will never use any one else!!!! He knows his stuff. Great guy, intelligent and fast. read more
