How do I put a key back on a 2011 macbook pro?

So one of my keys was sort of pushed in, so my original plan was to remove the key and remove the scissor mechanism(i think) and then buy a new key and mechanism. But... I managed to remove the key(not the mechanism) without doing any harm, I think. Plans changed, I just want to put back on the key. But, it's not like the old macs where you can just ''pop'' the key back on. I got my macbook early/mid 2011. I can't currently upload a photo but I will try to soon. Any ideas on how to put the key back on, I can't manage to take the mechanism out.

How do i access my installer disc on a 2011 macbook pro as they are virtual now, i have tried to use command r and hold shift on start up

I have, a 2011 macbook pro with osx lion, last year it died, by doing the not getting past the logo and startup gear, i tried doing the data screen repair where u type some code and try and repair, that didnt work so i took it to genius bar and it wasnt in warrenty and they were gonna charge me but as was only 3 weeks over the warrenty period, so they did for free, and the harddrive they installed had a 90 day warrenty and that is ova now, and my mac has now done the same thing again and this time i think was a power interruption at some point and now has a fault, another thing that crossed my mind is that yes this has done this but could they have (to save money and not right offf a new one) given me my same harddrive back and jus wiped it now 5 months down the track its broken again?
The laptop isnt even 18 months old and has broken down twice, my old macbook had 4 5 years not a hiccup.
In conclusion i need to get photoes off it and cant seem to activate safe mode, or do i know how to access the startup disk that the guy did at genius last time, or get to the data screeen that allowed me to attempt to repair the drive. Can someone help me please, i have tried command r and holding shift, meither have worked.

It's hard to know whether your hard drive has actually failed or if your system has just gotten badly corrupt. If the former, unfortunately, there may be no way to get any data off the drive at this point. If there aren't any backups of that data, it will be gone forever, unless perhaps a high-priced (ie, in the thousand dollar range) data recovery service has some luck with it.
If the system and/or hard drive are badly corrupt, the same may be true. Some or all of that data may be irrevocably corrupt by now. However, there are some ways that you can attempt to recover from this situation without paying such huge fees. First, if you have access to another Mac, and both have Firewire ports, you can connect the two using Firewire target disk mode. This will mount the damaged drive as if it were an external hard drive on the second Mac, and could allow you to copy some data from the drive.
Another possibility would be to buy an external hard drive, install Mac OS X on it and boot the machine from that, then copy any data from there that you can.
In both of these cases, it may be helpful to scan the damaged drive for recoverable files using something like Data Rescue.
There are also some possible ways to repair the drive if you can't do either of those things, but any repairs at this point could potentially destroy data. I only recommend this as a last resort. Still, if all other options have failed, try repairing the drive using DiskWarrior. This can fix problems that Disk Utility (and fsck, the command-line tool that it sounds like you may have used) cannot. It is possible that DiskWarrior will be able to get the drive back in working order long enough to get the data recovered, though of course it's also possible the process will be destructive.
If none of the above work, you'll have to seek professional help.

How do I share a Thunderbolt display between a 2011 MacBook Pro and 2011 MacMini?

I'd like to share a Thunderbolt display with my MacMini and MacBook Pro. The MacBook would presumably be connected periodically via the Thunderbolt / power cable from the display. Can I connect the MacMini via the Thunderbolt port on the back of the display?

Noooooo... The statement you have as a correct answer is INCORRECT!!! I'm not sure where Smudge got that idea originally from, but it is NOT the case.
@ericfromoak ridge: PLEASE Remove that as correct so that other users don't read and believe that!!!
Basically, if it's a Thunderbolt port... it contains both the PCIe (data) and DisplayPort (video) information.
Just from the Apple website alone it shows otherwise...
http://www.apple.com/displays/
In their example (from apple page), it shows (1) MBPro connected to the first TB display (via built-in cable... you can see this because it is the combo-cable with both the TB plug and power cable). Then the 2nd TB display is connected into the back of the 1st display. There-by "Daisy Chaining" and also showing that TB devices can plug in and work in any order... and that VIDEO (along with data) is still passing thru (bi-directionally) via the backport. No Difference.

In regards to your original question...
- Do BOTH of your machines (your MacMini & MBPro) have Thunderbolt capabilities? If either one or both don't have TB on the computer, you will Not be to run the scenario you are trying.

How come Power Nap doesn't work on late 2011 MacBook Pros?

I have a late MacBook Pro, recently bought Mountian Lion hoping I would get Power Nap, but unfortunatly not, could someone be able to explain why Power Nap is only for MacBook Pro Retina and MacBook Air please?
Much appreciated.

Because they have the 'official' Apple flash storage. Other flash storage devices on stock 2011 MBPs - such as SSDs - don't have the necessary firmware that Apple-sanctioned flash storage devices have.
It was a bummer for me, too. I've a SSD and was hoping to use Power Nap on my late 2011. But I have a Crucial m4, not an Apple device.

I've recently formatted my 10.7.4 mountain lion MacBook from 2007. The hard drive is wiped and I think it deleted to OS too. How do I put the OS back on it?

I've recently formatted my 10.7.4 mountain lion MacBook from 2007. The hard drive is wiped and I think it deleted to OS too. How do I put the OS back on it?

Wiping the drive does indeed delete the OS. Try this -
Boot to the Lion (10.7.4 is Lion not Mountain Lion) recovery partition by restarting the computer and holding down the command and R keys during startup.
If this works, reinstall from here. You must be connected to the Internet to do this.
If this does not work, possibly because you reformatted the recovery partition as well, you will need to reinstall from your original disks (assuming it came with 10.6 or earlier.) Boot to the disk by holding down the C key during startup and run the installer.
Best of luck.

NicholasLiban -
When you use the Lion restore as described, it does a fresh install on the hard drive that you can select at the beginning of the process. This provides a complete install of the very latest version of Lion, including the recovery partition. The drive that you choose for the installation destination winds up like what you would have on a brand new computer from Apple.

How do I put recovery files back into ASM?

I'm trying to recover a database for testing. I have all the backup files in a directory. I've restored the controlfile.
When I run the restore, the error is:
RMAN-03002: failure of restore command at 10/21/2009 19:24:52
RMAN-06026: some targets not found - aborting restore
RMAN-06023: no backup or copy of datafile 4 found to restore
RMAN-06023: no backup or copy of datafile 3 found to restore
RMAN-06023: no backup or copy of datafile 2 found to restore
RMAN-06023: no backup or copy of datafile 1 found to restore
I'm guessing that I either need to tell rman where to find the files or put the files back into the ASM +FLASHBACK.
So 1) How do I tell rman that the files are now in a directory
or 2) How do I put the files back into ASM?
Thanks - JR

I restored the control file with the rman "RESTORE CONTROLFILE FROM 'filenamegoeshere'; It was the control file backup from the corresponding DB backup.
I couldn't use the RESTORE CONTROLFILE FROM AUTOBACKUP because it was expecting the backup files to be in the ASM +FLASHBACK.
The catalog lists all the files that I have, but it thinks they are in ASM.
Thanks - JR

HT1689 how so i put my apps back on my iphone 4 if i connected it to a computer that has an ipod account on it and took my apps and wont sync them back to my phone

How do i put my apps back on my iphone 4? I hooked it up to a computer to update for the first time,. The computer had an ipod account on it already. After my update it took all of my apps and music etc; now i cant sync it back on my phone! Please help.

If there are copies of your Music and Apps on your computer, then it's a simple matter of clicking on the iPhone in iTunes and going to the sections at the top (Summary, Info, Apps etc) to tell it what to sync, then click the sync button in the bottom right corner.
If there is nothing backed up to your computer in iTunes, your purchased music and apps can be redownloaded directly from the iPhone:
iTunes app > More > Purchased > Music > Not on this iPhone
App Store app > Updates > Purchases > Not on this iPhone
