Approx. how much does it cost to replace the PowerBook Pro motherboard?

Looking for an estimate of what it would cost.
Also if you have an authorized company do the work - how do you tell if you in fact
got a new motherboard?
Thanks,
JonBar

Welcome to Apple Support Communities
A logic board can easily cost a half of the price of your MacBook Pro. Note that near everything is soldered onto the logic board except the hard drive, display, RAM and maybe other parts like the AirPort card.
It's difficult to say if you have a new or used logic board, but you can be sure that Apple will put a new logic board. Resellers and Apple Retail Stores haven't got used logic boards, or if they have them, they are damaged from other Macs

    Apple does not repair iPads, but will replace the entire iPad for a flat fee. If you have AppleCare+ on the iPad, the cost will be relatively minimal; $49 in the US. Otherwise, see the Service Pricing section here:
    http://www.apple.com/support/ipad/service/faq/
    There are independent iPad repair services that may be able to replace the screen for less. Do a web search for "ipad repair".  You can also look for parts and instructions and do the repair yourself. Note, though, that if you elect to have the iPad serviced by an unauthorized shop or perform your own repair, you will get no further support from Apple.
    Regards.

    How much does it cost to replace a fan in my macbook 2009?

    Don't know your model of MacBook yet most go for around $50 USA here are a few ideas of the cost from a site, now if your under warranty I would recommend you take it in to have it looked at or you might have to send it in which please back up your hard drive and then send it in.
    Look at this website but watch out what your doing.

  • How much does it cost to replace a MacBook Pro fan?

    Recently my MacBook Pro has been making a loud grinding noise and I think this means that the fan needs replacing. How much would it cost to replace the fan, at the apple store (in British Pounds). Are you charged for labour on top, and if so, how much? How much is apple care, would it be cheaper to fix it this way?

    I had two fans replaced in 2012 on my 2006 MacBook Pro were around £10 each with labor at £20. I don't know that these prices are still viable, but it may give you an estimate.
    Good luck,

  • How much does it cost to replace the late 2013 model Retina Macbook Pro battery?

    The page on Apple's website isn't very clear: www.apple.com/batteries/replacements.html
    I just bought my first Mac computer ever and I'm loving it -- and the battery life is phenomenal. I'm just worried that in a year it'll be half of what it is now which would not be unlike any other non-Mac laptop, but I really like the battery life this Mac gives.
    So I'm wondering, at that point, how much would it cost to have the battery replaced? Does AppleCare include a battery replacement? I know that it's not exactly something I want to replace myself, so how much would it cost to have the Apple Store replace it, if not?

    Thanks for the response. I'm worried partially about voiding the warranty if I remove it, and iFixIt's teardown of the latest 2013 Retina model suggests that it may be quite difficult to do without breaking other components...
    If they wouldn't do it for free, is $129 the price of a battery, or the price of battery and replacement?

    How much does it cost to repair/replace and iPod touch?

    Well, Thanks @IlIaass for letting me know that the screen doesn't get replacve but you get a new iPod. But then doesn't that indirectly mean that if your iPod is under warranty, you can get the refurbished one i.e. a new screen!! ?

    Methi99 is incorrect. A broken screen is not covered by the warranty..
    Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one for this price. They do not fix yours.

  • How much does it cost to replace the lid of a MBP 13"?

    Hi,
    I've got myself a Macbook Pro 13" (Mid-2009) that has got a fair few scratches in one corner and some noticeable dents on the lid. The top and bottom casing are all new after getting it repaired under AppleCare.
    I was wondering how much the lid would cost to replace (so my whole casing is in tip-top condition) and whether that includes the LCD as well. I know its going to be expensive and have already explored ifixit.com and other vendors for fixing it on the Internet and I'm not fond of just buying a case like a hardshell just to cover it up.
    So if anyone has had it done by Apple or knows roughly how much it would cost to replace then that would be great!
    Thanks

    I can tell you this, Apple will be the most expensive choice, but you'd have to make a genius bar appointment to get a price. Also, look here:

  • How much does it cost to replace the home button

    My ipad mini is out of warranty. Any ideas how much it may cost to repair the home button at the Apple Store?

    I don't think that they actually repair iPads. Apple replaces them. I'm quite sure that if they do repair them, it is not done on site.
    See the bottom of this support website for specifics.

  • How much does it cost to replace the speakers in MacBook Pro (mid 2010)?

    The sound from my MacBook Pro (mid 2010)  has suddenly become fuzzy. I suspect that I blew a speaker.
    Does anyone know how much it would cost to have one or all the speakers replaced?

    You may check for pricing on the iFixit.com and Powerbookmedic.com websites.  You may also bring the MBP into an Apple store genius bar and get a replacement quote from them.
    Ciao.
