repairing macbook pro?

There are a lot of small screw drivers included. Not sure what size a MacBook requires.

Has the small screwdriver needed to remove case back to access and replace hard drive on mid-2010 MacBook Pro. Use this kit at home and at work for many small tasks. Especially like the long extension allowing me to reach screws at the bottom of relatively deep wells.

Close. Disassembling an iMac had drive prior to resale of the rest of the computer. Besides, I wanted to see the platter.

Hi. Just in case no has answered this for you, there is a fix that works. You find the details regarding why this happens at http://www.rdoxenham.com/?p=259. It will also give you the fix. Or you can read the reviews/comments on Amazon.com: occasionally someone will write out the steps to fix this (like baseballguy7). My daughter's MBP required this fix and it has been going on 2 months with no problems. Dont by daunted by the fix; it is actually pretty easy. Hope this helps.

Btw. Mine is a pro, not a plain MacBook. I don't know if that makes a difference

Mine did not work either on a later model MacBook Pro and it was brand new. Seems like its a piece of garbage and we should be refunded our money back.

I don't have an answer because we bought it for a standard MacBook Pro. Wish I could help.

No glass with this. Just search for glass screen MacBook Pro and that should give you some results. You will need to buy a tool kit to remove it and replace it too. You won't need the LCD if the glass is cracked just replace the glass. Be careful though the glass is paper thin. Good thing they are only about 25$. Buy a couple in case you crack the replacement.

Hi, David, We have six Macintosh laptops in our household, ranging from 2 500 MHz ice ibooks bought back in 2000 to a new Macbook and a new Macbook pro. All of them are still working really well, given their ages and what we've put them through. There have been some flaws, yes, but no more flaws than friends who have PC laptops have endured (and they're in worse shape than we are sometimes). We have gotten two lemons; my partner's Ti Powerbook had a manufacturing flaw that showed up causing the motherboard to short circuit, and my first Macbook had a literally warped case, which meant it cracked. However, those can happen to anyone and it was just bad luck as far as I'm concerned -- he bought his through the apple online store, I got mine in person at the apple store. Buy Applecare. ALWAYS. And never go to the Genius bar if you can avoid it -- it's named ironically. Applecare and the applecare 800 number are your best bet. The bigger test I think is the powerbooks and ibooks that are now 4 and 8 years old, respectively. They're all going strong. One's our file server, one's a music server for the house, one runs a linux test environment, and one's in my kitchen, serving as my recipe library and media etc center. They all get a lot of work, and other than all being restarted every sunday night at 8, they pretty much run continually. Of course they're out of battery, but that's to be expected. Batteries don't last forever. Good luck, and I hope this helped!

It takes less than 2 minutes (that includes going to the drawer to get scissors to open your amazon box). Extremely easy- go to www.ifixit.com - and they have tons of instructions for every mac product and repair.

I had to use another tool kit in combination with this one to repair my 2009 Macbook. I would suggest that you buy the repair kit from ifixit and make sure that you have Torx drivers T2 through to T8. I also snapped the spudger almost immediately as the plastic is cheap...so I would buy a more expensive/solid kit.

According to the manual, the MacBook Pro for that year uses DDR3 SDRAM. This module will work. Be sure to have someone using Anti-static procedures install it.

I think you'd be out of luck until you had the computer fixed. It is pretty sturdy and fits onto the bar pretty well. Unless you rip it off, I don't know why it would stop working.

You can replace just the keyboard, but it's not a simple task. You will basically have to take out every component in your laptop to get to the keyboard. I think the official Apple genius/repair stance is that you don't replace just the keyboard, you replace the entire top case. But it is possible to replace just the keyboard.

Is anyone out there a Macbook Pro owner with this issue? I've bought the ink and refilled my cartridges but I can't figure out how to reset them. I would love your help if you know the answer... (I'm about to spend $29 to buy a gadget that resets the chips but who knows if that's another crazy scheme!)Thanks, Samantha B

I believe I have an updated 2012 MacBook Pro 13inch. I was able to remove my keyboard piece and put in a new one. If I could that, I imagine you can change the battery. I did not have to buy any addition pieces or tools. Good Luck, Hope this helped.

Good question. I just recently bought a MacBook Pro and honestly it didn't dawn on me to try it. I'll test it out and let you know.
