Does anyone know how hard it is to get to the hard drive?

I want to just go to the Apple store to pick up a Macbook. I just called them and they aren't selling any BTO Macbooks at this time. I want white, which means I would be stuck with a 60gb hard drive unless I order it through the web site.
Anyone see any manuals or read anything suggesting how difficult it would be to do a hard drive swap? If it isn't too bad I could get a 7200rpm drive in there and be the only kid on the block with one! I doubt any service centers will be prepared to work on them for atleast a few weeks.

According to the MacBook Users Guide (link is a PDF), the hard drive is not a user installable part. We may have to wait until Ars Technica takes one apart and lets everyone know where the hard drive is. They have a habit of buying Apple products and taking them apart.

  • Does anyone know how to do a text search in the new Safari for iPad iOS 7?

    Does anyone know how to do a text search in the new Safari for iPad iOS 7?

    The feature has been removed to make safari even less useable. You need to download a third party browser like atomic web browser to get the functionality you want back.
    Like many new IOS 7 "features", safari on the ipad is a FAIL.
    At least you can now bury safari in a folder containing hundreds of icons that you can only view 9 at a time.

  • Does anyone know how to add a preface page at the beginning of the book in ibooks author once the book is written? No matter how I try to add a Preface page, it goes to the end of the book.

    Does anyone know how to add a preface page at the beginning of the book in ibooks author once the book is written? No matter how I try to add a Preface page, it goes to the end of the book.

    Thanks. I've tried this and apparently the template I'm using is one of those where it doesn't work. I've tried dragging it as well as cutting a pasting but it always travels back to the end of the book. Maybe I can try changing the template temporarily, move the preface page, and then convert back to the original template. I'll experiment a little.

    does anyone know how to delete songs that came with the iPhone 6 in the music?? i tried deleting them from iTunes but i couldn't.

    I know you already solved this but for future reference, there is also another setting to only keep songs downloaded to your device visible in music.
    Go to Settings --> Music --> Show All Music and make sure it is turned off

  • Does anyone know how to fix 'itunes could not backup the iphone an error occurred'?

    Tried absolutely everything suggested to remedy this very annoying Iphone 4s backup problem, wish Apple would just get round to fixing the problem that a lot of people seem to have for some time now, 'iTunes could not backup the iPhone because an error occurred' refuse to part with £25.00 to be told they don't know how to fix or they are not aware of the problem being so talked about on their support communities. Please please help, its been 4 months now and I have tried absolutely everything out there.

    You really tried EVERYTHING in that article? I'm impressed, it's a long list.
    The most common cause is a currupt current backup. Deleting the current backup should fix it if that's the problem. You need to delete it in iTunes Preferences, Devices tab. But with Windows unfortunately that isn't always enough. You need to use Windows Explorer to make sure the backup is completely gone, as the system call that deletes a folder sometimes fails to delete it completely. So open Explorer and make sure it's gone, and if it isn't delete it using Windows. The location is:
    Windows Vista and Windows 7/8:  \Users\(username)\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
    Note: To quickly access the AppData folder, click Start. In the search bar, type %appdata% and press the Return key.
    There have also been reports that some apps prevent the backup from completing, probably because they create files that the backup program doesn't recognize. The most common offender reported is iZip.

  • All my spreadsheets in numbers and files in pages have disappeared! Does anyone know how I can find them / get them back?

    I had a substantial amount of spreadsheets on my iPad mini and the numbers app as well as a substantial number of pages documents in the pages app. The key word there was had! All my files have disappeared. And on top of that every time I go into preferences to turn on the cloud option it keeps turning itself off. Does anybody know what is going on I would love to have my documents back please help.

    I suppose you have checked the following settings:
    1. Settings>Pages>Use iCloud>On
    2. Settings>iCloud>Documents and Data>On

  • Hi. Does anyone know how to delete my guest network from the list of network choices that everyone in the neighborhood sees when picking a network?  Followed helpful suggestions on this site to delete the netwk but it still appears.  Appreciate any help!

    Hi.  I'm trying to make my guest network disappear from the list of network choices that appears to everyone in the neighborhood.  Even though I followed the great suggestions on how to delete the network, it's still appearing in the list that everyone sees.  It has my name and would prefer to get rid of it.
    Please help!  Many thanks!

    Thank you for not only the tip but also especially the research showing that for anybody other that those using Wi-Fi for the first time the network wouldn't disappear.  I wanted it to disappear for everyone so.....I finally solved it by resetting the Airport Extreme to the factory settings and starting over from scratch!  It worked! Yay!!!!!
    So, for everyone that has had this problem (and I've read many of the same complaints in different places on the Internet), you must go into Airport Utility and check the box stating that you want to reset it to the factory settings.  Do not do it with a paper clip and the reset button on the box; I tried that first and it did not work.  You must reset it via the Airport Utility.  Then just start over and you will have the choice to NOT check the box to Enable Guests.  If you want to enable guests, just be sure not to use your name or you're back to the same problem. Apple is so great with everything...wouldn't it have been so easy for them to just put this in the manual somewhere?????  Thanks for all your help.    Hope this helps others!

  • Does anyone know how to upload and download files to the icloud storage?

    Well, it says i have 5g of free storage... but what good is it?  There doesn't seem to be any way to put anything there.
    What am I missing here?

    iCloud does not have a general file syncing service, like Dropbox or Sugarsync.  Only certain types of files can be synced and only by applications/apps that specifically support these files and that support iCloud.  For example, Pages can sync to iCloud and only Pages apps on devices can access these files.  Within DocsToGo, nothing can be synced to iCloud.

  • Does anyone know how to write an apple logo or the command symbol with the text tool?

    It is done by alt + shift + K with mail etc. on a mac but not in photoshop.  PS 3  macbook pro
    Thanks Chris

    while it does make an apple logo as the layer name it makes a square on the canvas.
    Then I suspect the problem is with the font.
    Have you tried using another one (preferably one of the default ones)?

    I think you are making inapp purhases within the game.
    You need to connect the developer of the game to see if this is occurring.
