is there a number 1? I'm told that's what I need to change the battery in my macbook pro

This is the screwdriver I bought for my 2010 Macbook Pro for the battery. It worked great. Didn't seem to large or too small. No slippage.

You need this Tri-wing screwdriver - to remove battery (except for MBP 15" 2009) or trackpad of 2008 Macbook Silver Unibody

The 2 tri-wing screwdrivers that I bought through Amazon are similar in size to a Phillips head size 0. They were for a friend. I think she said they worked (to open a Nintendo). Anyway, there is a size 1 Philips, and I have used a size 0 successfully in its' place. I don't know if the tri-wing drivers are similarly numbered as Phillips.My tri-wings both say 360/Yx50 though they differ slightly in size. They took over a month to ship from China. Hope this helps.

There appears to be conflicting information here. A1331 and 661-5585 are the correct numbers for a unibody macbook, not pro, battery. There is also a comment from a reviewer that he put one in his white unibody macbook. I'd probably not roll the dice on this until there is a more accurate description.

Yep, works like a charm.. I needed this to open up my macbook pro so I can replace my battery myself

I don't think the newer macbook pros have removable batteries. I have. MacBook Pro 2009 and it's has to be taken in to apple to repair or fix battery issues. Hope this helps!!

Not sure what you mean by an ivory macbook. The easiest way to determine what battery you need for you mac is to take the bottom off and look at the Model number on the battery (will most likely be at the bottom in black text so it can be a little hard to read). Mine was A1331 which this battery is comparable to.

It should work, my macbook is 3,1. Its the next model above 2,1.Just make sure to calibrate your battery the first time you get it.

Turn the lock on the bottom of your macbook and pop out the battery. Under the battery you should be able to find the factory installed RAM with a simple locking mechanism that differs for each model, there should be picture instructions showing how to pop those old cards out and replace them with the new ones, exactly as they were arranged. There are probably 4 slots arranged like so:ABCDThe 2 new RAM sticks will work @ maximum potential in slots A and B (There might only be A and B anyway). ALSO BE SURE YOU ARE GROUNDED, don't do it on the carpet or else you'll completely fry your new RAM and/or hard drive to death with the static. Serious business. If you don't know how to ground yourself, look that up first. Turn the lock on the bottom of your macbook and pop out the battery.

Hi! I have a late 2008 MacBook Pro and just bought this battery to replace an OEM Apple battery and it works perfectly. And I did double check and my MBP is an A1286. Hope that helps!

I don't know you have to look at the item number on your battery. Or Google the battery type for your computer. Sorry I couldn't be of assistance.

I haven't yet had the need to replace the battery. I did however take a look at it yesterday as I was also curious and the only thing I can think of is using a straight screwdriver on the two screws (assuming they're screws) on the face of the device. You can see the battery within. There is no way they'd make a device you can't change the battery out on... it's gotta be it.

... not sure ... Mine was 2009. HOWEVER, it was a piece of crap. It discharged extremely quickly. I ended up junking it and working out a deal from my local Mac Reseller. They ordered a genuine Apple approved battery at a discounted cost under their usual because I did the installation.
