I need to replace my keyboard but can't figure out how to remove the case. [Personal Information Removed]
have removed all screws and other hardware but there seems to be a post holding everything together. Thought it might be the standoff but not sure.

Trackpad click bar not working correctly after getting a keyboard replacement.

I just got my whole keyboard replaced two days ago due to a sticking "m" problem on my 2008 macbook pro. They didn't replace my trackpad, but now, it seems that my trackpad clicker will only respond if I apply a lot of pressure to the middle of the upper edge of the bar. If I click anywhere else on the bar, the bar is completely unresponsive. It makes clicking and dragging nearly impossible. I once had this problem when I had a bulging battery, but the battery is fine now. Could something have happened when they replaced the keyboard? It can't be coincidence... Is there a home remedy? I know they will want to replace it if I take it in, and my old maching has been off warranty for a while now.

Either a misalignment or a cable is not properly connected.
Since they just "fixed" the keyboard I'd say take it back as they most likely caused this problem.
If you want to do it yourself, iFixit could be particularly useful:

W530 keyboard replacement?

Hello!
I'm a first time thinkpad user. I received my W530 yesterday, and I am very happy with it. there is one thing with the keyboard though; I picked the wrong layout. Unfortunately I havent got enough money to buy a new backlit keyboard with the US layout (mine right now is NL, dutch). Is there any way I can get the keyboard replaced or send it back to lenovo for a replacement keyboard? This is a real bummer, and a stupid mistake. Typing right now is horrible. I searched across the board, and saw some posts about calling the IBM services and such.
Any tips? Thanks!
(sorry for posting this in the wrong board, if so)
EDIT: If it matters, I can replace the keyboard myself if needed.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

As far as i know, the service department doesn't allow replacement of keyboard based on language preferences. i.e. changing from one language layout to another.
You would have to source the keyboard from elsewhere.

Keyboard replacement for iMac Intel OS X 10.4.11 ? HELP!

My iMac4,1 Intel Core Duo running OS X 10.4.11.
Can't upgrade OS?, no new keyboard replacement will work...what do I do?, besides drop 3k on a new Mac. HELP ME PLEASE!

New iMac's are not $3K, they start at $1199. You have had 5+ years of use, perhaps it's time for an upgrade anyhow. BTW exactly what keyboards have you tried and have you done and SMC reset after installing the keyboard. If you don't know how please read:

IBook G4 Keyboard Replacement

Does anyone know how much a replacement keyboard will cost for an iBook G4 (14 in)? Also, if someone knows of a site that sells them can I have the link?

Hi there:
Several places (online - search) have iBook G4 14" or 12" - replacement
keyboards; one such place has both the item, their asking price and a
link to supposedly help remove and replace it, here:
"G4 iBook Keyboard Replacement - White Ice - New..."
http://www.powerbookmedic.com/G4-iBook-Keyboard-Replacement---White-Ice---New-p- 16595.html
Companies who sell parts, and also provide repair services may also be
good places to inquire; one such could be wegenermedia.com and they
also have a toll-free number (during regular business hours) & real people.
Good luck & happy computing!

Would a Top Case keyboard replacement for Macbook Unibody A1342 (US version), be compatible w/my Macbook if originally it had a Japanese version?

I bought a Macbook Unibody back in 2010, and until now the system is still working perfectly fine, probably because I keep on updating my software version, currently I am on Mac OS X 10.8.2 (Mountain Lion)...I don't have issues with it.
I bought this Macbook in Japan, the keyboard version is on Japanese (with US alphabets) becaue I was studying Kanji back then, and apparently I am now living here in the Philippines and some of my keyboard keys are lost and they were taken off by my naughty niece (LOL, couldn't blame her though... she's just 2 years old)... now I am looking for a replacement. I couldn't find Japanese version of Top Case replacements here in Manila... now I kinda realized I might as well use a US version moving forward.
Now my question is re: Top Case keyboard replacement for Macbook Unibody A1342 (US version), would it be compatible w/my Macbook if originally it had a Japanese version?
Thanks in advance for all the help & informations. I would really appreciate it before I buy a replacement.
Have a good one guys! ^_^)Y

but it has been dropped a bit.
Translation - It has been dropped multiple times.
All the problems are likely related. Better get it to an Apple service rep and be aware that any warranty does not cover abuse of the product.

Need to replace dv7-3164cl keyboard

I have a dv7-3164cl (WA806UA) that has 7 missing keys, thanks to my son (age 2) thinking it would be fun to rip them off. They won't go back on.
I CANNOT to save my life find a replacement keyboard. The aftermarket/parts sites seem to pretend this model of dv7 doesn't exist, and the one that does says the keyboard is "out of stock" and has been for 2 months, and even if they do have it, it's nearly 80 dollars.
Is it truly impossible to get a replacement keyboard? I can't seem to find it here from HP either. I also really hate the idea of paying $80 for a **bleep** keyboard.
HELP!!!

Not sure what color you need but here is a black one from an eBay seller I have done business with for years:
$30 eBay keyboard
Last time I suggested eBay here I got a torrent of response saying that people have been ripped off there. I can't really understand it as I do the buying for a laptop repair shop and we rely very heavily on eBay (including quite a bit purchased from this seller) and only very rarely have any kind of problem and even then the seller usually takes care of it. We do confine the buying to a handful of vendors who seem to be permanent fixtures on eBay. For example, this one has nearly a quarter of a million positive feedback rating.
It also seems that the keyboards for the dv7-2000 and dv7-3000 are the same

Pavilion dv7 keyboard replacement problems HP Pavilion dv7-4069wm

Hope I can get some help. HP Pavilion dv7-4069wm, windows7 64bit. Ok, the sad story, I spilled a drink on the keyboard. Did not seem to mess anything up but the keyboard. First mistake, bought a used one off ebay. Turned out to be the wrong one, screw lugs on back did not match. Bought a second one, it seemed to work the first couple times I used it, backspace key would not work, then nothing worked. I did break one of the little tabs on the zif connector and used some tape like I found in another post. Could this be a connection problem, or just a cheap keyboard problem? I am smacking myself for the spill anyway, so ANY help is appreciated.
I forgot to ad, I am using this laptop as a media center, I currently have a wireless keyboard and mouse I use with it, and it works well, one concern being that on this laptop I can only turn on the wifi with the wifi key on the laptop keyboard. Is there a way to go into bios or a workaround to turn on wifi other than the laptop keyboard? I have the laptop power settings to put it to sleep when not in use, but If it would get shut off, not sure how I would get the wifi restarted if it did not automatically come back on.

use windows mobility centre to control Wifi. May require wifi to be turned on via dedicated key for first instance before it can handle toggling of wifi but may not so worth inspecting & setting up.
Problem with broken connector is probably cause of keyboard issue, the tabs don't just hold cable but also push it against contacts so you may need to revisit & improve your solution to this ribbon connector.
Have come across damaged connectors before & been able to use them by adding thin tape to top of ribbon making ribbon tighter fit in socket & contact better & also use some tape across top of connector socket & onto ribbon to hold it in place.
