I requested that you send me a link to the repair manual for the SWB900 and haven't received an answer from you?


I am sorry I didn’t know that’s what you wanted. I found it online but I can’t post it. But I use iCloud so I will give you a link to the pdf.

Any battery can leak. It’s never a good idea to leave batteries in an electronics device of any kind, for extended storage.


I definitely leaned my lesson. And I guess I’ve been lucky because I have left the batteries in my flash up to six months before using the flash again. But they have always been Duracell batteries.

I too own a SB-900 and use Energizer Ultimate Lithium batteries. They are more reliable in cold weather, such as Montana, and are guaranteed not to leak. They cost more than standard batteries but still less expensive than having to replace a Speedlight.


Funny you should say that energizers batteries are more reliable I’ve have always used Duracell and never had a problem. But back in December I needed batteries in a hurry and stopped by the dollar general and all that had was energizer so I bought them instead. I have left Duracell batteries in my flash and never have they leake. And they good till date on the energizer batteries was June 24 maybe I just got a bad pack of batteries. But they was not ultimate lithium batteries.

Further cleaning is needed. You may need to open it up.


I did open it yesterday unplugged the flash from the motherboard and cleaned it with vinegar and baking soda. Everything thing still works except the off button. It even goes into standby after the time limit I set for it. I can still use it and change the settings I just can’t turn it off completely with out removing the battery. I am looking at getting the newer Z1-N.

I have a Nikon SB-900 and I forgot to remove the batteries back in December when I last used it. I wanted to use it a couple of day a go and it would not turn on. Looked at the batteries and they was corroded. I took a q tip whit vinegar and baking soda and cleaned the contacts and it started working again. Everything works and all is good except one thing it will not turn off. The switch works master remote on all work but when I turn it to off it will not power down. Any suggestions?

Does Amazon actually do prints? I went to Amazon prime and searched. I found many prime options done by different sellers with free prime shipping. Did you order from one of those? If not, please explain how to find Amazon photo?


I know they do because I have the Amazon photos app on my iPhone and iPad. I have never tried ordering from my iMac but I’m sure there’s a way. But on the iPhone app you can order prints.

If you use a Mac I would suggest photo sweeper. Also if you updated to the newest release of apple software both on iOS and Mac OS it has it built in to the photos app.

Slow is better than not working at all. Maybe they should stop working on more extensions and get their base product working. I'm sorry I bought it.


I’m definitely sorry I purchased it. I per ordered it last year with the promise of all the features but I had to purchase them this year, they called them extensions. If I edited more than five photos I get a pop tell me to quit any program that I’m not using because I am running out of memory. The only way I can edit more photos is for me to shut down my Mac a restart it. I wish I could get my money back.

I have Luminar Neo and I have nothing but trouble with it. Contacted support but still haven’t been able to use it because it is so slow. I have a Mac Studio. From what I see on Facebook user’s group a lot of people are having problems with Neo. Hope you find a solution soon.

Acting on the email I received, I installed four new extensions from Skylum into Luminar Neo, which is now up to version 1.5.0. The new extensions are Upscale AI, Background Removal AI, Focus Stacking, and Supersharp AI. That now brings to six the number of extensions, on top of HDR Merge and Noiseless AI. I've just now begun to tinker with them, and right now the results are mixed. I don't want to or anything just yet, as first I have to dismiss my preset expectations. Still, the folks at Skylum aren't sitting still, and Neo is becoming quite the feature-rich photo editor!

I have a Mac Studio and it is extremely slow. I have the last 3 and out of all of them NEO is the slowest I click and have to wait for the affect to take place. This is the last version I will purchase.

I’ll be buying a new iPhone soon. I’m still using a 7 Plus. It’s fine except for the battery.


I don't think the iPhone 7 got iOS 16 but they did release a update for iOS 15 the day 16 came out.

If you're an Apple user, iCloud is an easy choice. It allows you to access all your files from all your Apple devices. Many of Apple's applications work through iCloud to synchronize files on Mac/iPad/iPhone so you can work on one device and almost immediately switch to another without manual file transfers.


And they add a duplicate album where it finds all your duplicates.

I have been using Neo and it is really slow on my Mac Studio compared to ai and 4. And their customer service needs a lot of improvement. Been having problems and emailing back and forth for weeks. I bought the plug in they offer that was supposed to come with Neo when I preordered and renewed my membership only to see that they want more money for the tutorials and videos on how to use the software. I feel like it’s a scam.
