Has anyone had the area below the keyboard/mousepad crack and chip off?

The area below my keyboard and mousepad has begun to chip off. My MacBook is no longer under warranty and I do not know how much it is going to cost to fix. Here is a picture of what it looks like: http://i25.tinypic.com/23tgldw.jpg

take this to an authorized service center. apple is "quietly" fixing these at no charge. if they won't do it for free, then take it to an apple store & politely complain

  • Has anyone had a problem with the letters literally rubbing off the keyboard?

    Has anyone had a problem with the letters actually disappearing from the keybord, like being gradually rubbed out? My macbook air had this problem one year after purchase. They fixed it for free. Now, a year later, I have the same prob. Apple doesnt want to know.
    I would be delighted with any suggestions, reactions etc. thanks in advance.

    I don't have to be doing anything or be anywhere near the computer.
    The machine feels warm but i don't know if thats normal or not.

    Has anyone had an issue with the app scramble with friends after upgrading to iOS 6. Tapping the screen will not select the tiles and hold them.

    Yes I am having the same problem. I can't find any info about it and nothing seems to help. I am just posting this in hope that if it's a wider problem, there will be a quick solution.

  • Has anyone had any problems with the latest upgrade for iPad?

    I have an iPad 1 and am being prompted to upgrade to the latest version software. Has anyone had any problems when doing this? Our PC runs on Wndows 7.
    Having just resolved iTunes not connecting to the store after the recent upgrade, I'm reluctant to do something that could potentially screw up the iPad which does what we want as it is.

    Ok, thanks for that. I'll hang fire for the moment & see if anyone else has any comments.
    That's probably a good idea.  If you are happy with the system as is, I'd wait to upgrade.  I can report that my friends and family have mostly upgraded to iOS 5 without any problems, but as you can probably tell from other posts on this board, lots of people have run into problems. 
    As the old saying goes, if it ain't broke, don't fix it!

  • Has anyone had a problem with the spotlight search not working sometimes?

    Has anyone had a problem with their "spotlight search" not working? If I restart the phone it will work for a few days then not work again.

    It's more likely the OP's router.  I have a wifi only iPad 2, yet location services work just fine on my iPad.  If I open maps, my location is found quite nicely.  I have seen that some routers do not provide location services and I suspect the OP has such a router.

  • WEIRD! Has Anyone had this problem with the keyboard ribbon cable? HLP! PLS

    Replacing a DVD drive and using ifixit to reassemble the unit; the PB 1.67 Ghz wont turn on--nothing.
    After 3 days of troubleshooting I finally found that pressing the keyboard ribbon cable to the logic board very firmly while pressing the power button starts it.
    Nothing else works. When I release the pressure the PB works fine after start however the power switch doesnt work again (for an emergency manual shutdown or to boot the PB again). Tape doesnt work.
    This connection is only a small friction fit connector. Ive cleaned the area, compressed air cleaned and close inspection shows no visible problems I can see.
    Has anybody experienced this and how do I fix it? I cant open the PB every time I want to boot it!

    Hi, Steve. I don't have an answer for your faulty connection, but as for workarounds, there is seldom a need to shut a Powerbook down and then boot it up using the power button. I recommend that you stop shutting down as a matter of habit, and instead just put the Powerbook to sleep (using the command in the Apple menu) when you aren't going to use it for a while.
    I could easily count on my fingers and toes the total number of times my Powerbook has been shut down since I bought it four years and ten months ago. It runs 24/7/365 except when I'm working on something inside it. For all other purposes, a software Sleep or Restart command suffices, and I don't need the power button for those. You should be able to reduce your need for that button just as drastically.

  • Has anyone had any problem with the multi choice tick boxes on a windows computer?

    I have just created a form with check boxes on my iMac, emailed it to a windows based account and found that the check boxes don't work in windows explorer. Has anyone else had this problem?

    If your Mac is truly running MacOS 10.2.x, you are limited to using 128-bit WEP security - WPA is not supported.
    On the Linksys router, select 128-bit WEP and enter a passphrase. The router will generate, from the passphrase, four hexadecimal-format WEP keys. Copy down the FIRST of those four WEP keys - and use that WEP key on your Mac when prompted.

  • Has anyone had any problems with the 10.0.3 upgrade?

    I'm running WinXP and presently have Adobe Reader 9.4.3.  Before I upgrade I would like to find out if anyone has had any problems with the new release?  The last time I upgraded an Adobe product (Flash) it screwed up my ability to watch videos on my browser.
    Any information would be appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Spin45

    Adobe Reader has the original 10.0.0 with its associated vulnerabilities and the patch of 10.0.1 which seems unable to run in protected mode in my environment or any that have roaming profiles.  The vulnerabilities that prompted the last two patches (would have been 10.0.2 and 10.0.3) have been forgone by Adobe, because "Protected Mode mitigates those vulenrabilities".  See here:  http://www.adobe.com/support/security/bulletins/apsb11-06.html
    and here: http://www.adobe.com/support/security/advisories/apsa11-02.html
    In my opinion, Reader X is not ready, they are soliciting for testers for a new release.  Version 9 with its attendant problems seems to be the only viable solution for me, if I can get the patches to apply properly, and the installer to work properly.

  • So, has anyone had better luck with the kt4 ultra's new bios?

    ive seen so many posts on here about probs with the board (mines memory related) wondering if anyone has any positive notes on the new bios, or if they are still having problems... i had to box mine back up and install the trusty old FIC board, cause i COULD NOT get the msi to work. VERY frustrating to have what seems like a great piece of hardware boxed up for bios/other issues. do the msi engineers read this board?????? come on guys.....

    the p/n is pp-303XP
    thats funny cause my system is working fine now on an older mobo. ive seen many people with similar problems (see the "MSI and a total lack of support" thread) and i really dont think its the power supply. i will reiterate:
    the system runs fine with only 256 megs installed (pc2400) as soon as i plug in the other stick, wallah, nothing. your saying that the 3.8 volts or whatever it is that the stick of memory consumes, prevents the computer from starting up or even posting? i seriously dont think so. ive even tried all different hardware configs (took the ati card out and replaced it with an old TNT card) and it still wont work.
    i dont need to get a bigger power supply.
    MSI needs to provide better support, and get off their %$#%$ and at least get a stable bios out. from the looks of the forum, these boards are totally $%^&&.

  • Has anyone had any success solving the stuttering problem in iTunes?

    A few months ago, my iTunes began skipping after playing fine for twenty minutes or so.  The skips or stutters then get closer and closer together until it is simply unlistenable.  A restart finds the tunes that skipped before now working fine, but with new ones eventually stuttering.  My RAM and HD space are in good shape.  Advisors have offered assistance, but to no avail.  (Neither was familiar with the problem).  Judging from the number of entries one gets when Googling "iTunes skipping", I'd say this is a well-documented problem, yet nobody connected with Apple seems to know exactly what I'm talking about.  I've tried fixing permissions, re-installing Snow Leopard, resetting PRAM, safe-booting;  my next step is uninstalling and re-installing iTunes, which disheartens me because of all the people who have tried it to no avail.  Any ideas?

    To be honest if you had experienced it you would know exactly what i am talking about. I am running a top of the range retina display and get a bad laging issues when doing something a simple as maybe changing the volume of a kick in ultra beat and it will freeze for 30 odd seconds. it shouldnt be happening with such a powerful machine. I have reinstalled it, i have tried it in loew res i have tried it in 64 bit all of which still have the same issue. Even after being in to the apple store and being on the phone numerous times i still havent come to a conclusion therefore i was trying to gauge if anyone else had the same issues or if apple just need to hurry up and release an update.
