Local, knowledgeable support for MacBook, iMac, Mac mini and more — repairs, upgrades, setup and data migration across Plett, Knysna and the Garden Route.
Apple devices deserve someone who knows them — but you shouldn't have to drive to a big city for help. The Computer Guy provides local Apple and Mac support across Plettenberg Bay and the Garden Route, from MacBook repairs to setting up a brand-new iMac.
With over 20 years of experience across both Mac and PC, we handle the hardware, the software, and the migration — and we always quote before we start.
What We Fix
Apple & Mac services we offer
Battery & Charging
A MacBook that won't hold charge, swells, or warns "Service Recommended"? We replace Mac batteries and sort out charging faults — MagSafe and USB-C alike.
Slow Mac / Storage Full
macOS feeling sluggish or constantly out of space? We clean up, optimise, and where it helps, upgrade storage — bringing older Macs back to life without the cost of a new one.
macOS & Software Issues
Won't boot past the Apple logo, stuck in recovery, or apps crashing? We troubleshoot macOS, reinstall cleanly when needed, and preserve your data through the process.
Setup & Data Migration
New Mac? We set it up properly and migrate everything across from your old Mac or PC — files, photos, mail and apps — so you start fresh without losing a thing.
iPad & iPhone Support
Beyond Macs, we help with iPad and iPhone setup, iCloud, backups, and getting your Apple devices working together smoothly.
Questions
Apple & Mac repair FAQs
Do you repair MacBooks in Plettenberg Bay?
Yes — we repair and support MacBook, MacBook Air, MacBook Pro, iMac and Mac mini locally in Plettenberg Bay, with onsite options across Knysna and the Garden Route. We diagnose first and quote before any work begins.
Are you an authorised Apple service provider?
We're an independent IT specialist with over 20 years of experience, not an Apple-authorised service centre. That means flexible, local, often faster and more affordable support — though for repairs still under Apple warranty, we'll always point you to the right channel so you don't void your cover.
Can you recover data from a Mac that won't turn on?
In most cases, yes. If the storage is intact we can usually recover your files even when the Mac won't boot, and migrate them to a new machine or external drive.
Can you migrate my data from an old Mac or PC to a new one?
Absolutely — we handle full migrations: documents, photos, mail, contacts and apps, from Mac to Mac or PC to Mac. You walk away with a new machine that feels like home.
How much does a Mac repair cost?
It depends entirely on the fault. We diagnose and give you a written quote upfront — no surprises — and we'll tell you honestly whether a repair is worth it versus the cost of replacement.
