Can you replace the top part of your macbook pro?

My macbook pro has some scratches and a small dent on the top and was wondering if you are able to replace this? If not, what are other options?

Yes, the display assembly can be replaced for anywhere from a few hundred to more than a thousand dollars, depending on model. Under no circumstances is this a sensible, worthwhile investment if the only reason for doing it is minor cosmetic damage.

    Hey guys, want to replace my 256 flash based drive in my 2014 macbook pro retina with a 1th 7200rpm hdd. Is this possible with a bay adapter of some kind?

  • Can I replace the wireless card in my Macbook Pro?

    Can I replace the airport extreme card (Wireless G) to the new N card that come in the new MBP?

    Yes. It has been done. I have heard that the wireless n card for the mac pro will fit the macbook pro. I haven't done it yet though...I'm undecided about whether to update my laptop so i'm going to wait a while before i void my warranty.
    An apple dealer have offered to perform the installation but can't guarantee it will work, and say it will void my warranty but that's up in a month anyway... I'll let you know if i do it.

  • Can you replace the Super Drive with the diskdrive from my macbook pro?

    Iv been playing with the idea of replacing the disk drive in my macbook pro with an extra SSD for a bit better performance as its extremely rare I actually use the disk drive.
    Would it be possible for me to get it installed into my iMac? The one currently in it is history and I'm looking to sell it asap.
    Thanks.

    I doubt they would. But there is no harm in asking. At the least they would chrage you a labor fee.
    Imac's aren't the easiest computer to take apart. I think the cover glass and screen has to be removed to do any work on it.
    you should go to ifixit.com and see if they have a tutorial on changing parts in your model imac.

  • HT4061 I have cracked screen on my I-phone 5 but phone is working. Can you replace the screen?

    I have cracked screen on my I-phone 5 but phone is working. Can you replace the screen?

    You need to take it in to Apple and ask them.  Accidental damage is not covered by the warranty, so you may have to pay for the replacement.
    If you have AppleCare+ on the iPhone, you are entitled to two accidental damage claims, for a fee.

  • I just replaced the hard drive on my macbook pro, reformatted new hard drive and copied over a backup from time machine now I have a kernel panic message (you must restart) - what do I do now?

    i just replaced the hard drive on my macbook pro, reformatted new hard drive, installed a back up from time machine and now have kernel panic ( you must restart your computer) what do I need to do?

    If you're able to boot, launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ If you’re running Mac OS X 10.7 or later, open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the page that opens.
    Select the most recent panic log under System Diagnostic Reports. Post the contents – the text, please, not a screenshot. For privacy’s sake, I suggest you edit out the “Anonymous UUID,” a long string of letters, numbers, and dashes in the header and body of the report, if it’s present (it may not be.) Please don't post "shutdownStall" or "hang" reports.
    If you can't boot in the usual way, try a safe boot. The instructions provided by Apple are as follows:
    Be sure your Mac is shut down.
    Press the power button.
    Immediately after you hear the startup tone, hold the Shift key. The Shift key should be held as soon as possible after the startup tone, but not before the tone.
    Release the Shift key when you see the gray Apple icon and the progress indicator (looks like a spinning gear).
    During startup, you’ll see a progress bar, and then the login screen, which appears even if you normally log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
    Safe mode is slower than normal, and some things won’t work at all.

  • Where can i find the TRACKING NUMBER on my macbook pro?

    before i bought my mbp, i was told that i should write down its tracking number in case it got stolen. where do i find it?

    Hi there - are you sure they (whoever that is) asked you to keep track of the Tracking number? Do you think they meant the Serial Number?
    You can find the serial number of your MBP by clicking on the apple icon at the top of your menu bar, and go to About this Mac, then you can click on more information, which will give you the serial number of your macbook pro.
    PS - in terms of safeguards for stolen macs, you might want to do a search on the forum discussion related to this issue (stolen or lost) . . .

  • How can I erase the data on my 2009 macbook pro that won't turn on because of a faulty motherboard? Do I just remove the hard drive, install it in a working mac, and erase it that way?

    You put the internal drive in an enclosure. If you choose to keep the drive, you don't need to erase it.

  • I can't unlock the screen to access my macbook pro. When I enter the password it just jiggles. I'm not getting an error message, so I'm pretty certain that the password is correct. Any suggestions?

    I can't unlock the screen to access my macbook pro. When I enter the password it just jiggles. I'm not getting an error message, so I'm pretty certain that the password is correct. Any suggestions?

    I already checked that one.
    I'm baffled, especially since it will usually give you the Invalid user name or password entered message. I'm not getting that. Instead the password field just jiggles back and forth. Very odd.

    Does replacing the hard drive in a MacBook Pro early 2011, as described in the manual, void AppleCare?

    here's one of the provisions....
