How much does it cost to have my macbook pro trackpad replaced/fixed?
I should probably first ask if this is even something apple can repair?
Ever since I spilled water on my trackpad, the cursor has been going crazy. Most of the time it's either dragging the screen, clicking randomly, or moving the cursor on its own. Occasionally (although lately this has not been the case) it works perfectly fine. I was reading a few similar posts, and apparently I was supposed to bring this to the Genuis Bar... although, it appears that the only damage is to the trackpad, everything else operates normally.
If Apple can repair this, what price range am I looking at? My warranty expired a while ago.
Also should I not be using my laptop? (I'm currently using it right now )
It is definitely fixable, but the trackpad is part of an assembly that includes most of the Mac. Also, Apple is going to guarantee the repair so they are going to replace anything that could have possibly been affected by liquid damage including the logic board. This means practically everything is likely to require replacement, with the possible exception of the display.
I'm just telling you what to expect, since that is what you asked, even though I know you won't like the answer. There is no way to be certain of the cost until you ask Apple. Perhaps you will be pleasantly surprised.
Warranty would not have helped by the way - liquid damage is not covered.

It seems like I just missed the interval for the hard disk replacement program. I purchased in March 2009 a 24 inch Intel iMac . How much does it cost to have apple support at an Apple Store replace a hard drive?
My hard drive continually has the floating beach ball and will take massive time to fulfill a request. And then will not boot up...so then I have to do a restore and rebuild hard drive from a past saved time machine version. Works for a little bit...then the floating beachball comes more and more...until it will not boot up again. So then I restore from a previous time machine saved version....and again it works for a day or so ... until it happens again. Now it's happening faster and faster...so I think my hard drive is dying.

How much does it cost to have power button repaired on iPhone 4?
My power button stopped working last night. The phone is about a year and a half old. Never been dropped or damaged. Unsure why it stopped working. How much does it cost to have the power button repaired??
If you take it to an Apple Store, they will take it apart and it may need a simple cleaning to fix it.
If it needs to be repaired, you will get a refurbished iPhone.

How much does it cost to have a notebook look at
I need to take my Mac to a local store to have it looked at, and was wondering what, if any, costs will be associated with them just looking at it?
I know the issue is that it will not turn on, when the power button is pressed a green light flashes on the side, but that is it.
I look at the charger(power cable) and the charger port on the laptop itself, and both connectors looks brownish/black like it short-circuited part of the connector.
It use to charge the battery, then the charger kept the green light on(which indicated the battery was fully charged) when indeed it was not.
Anyways, I just need to get an estimate on how much repairs will be, Idk if this can be price in this post/topic I am writing, or if I would need to actually take it(which I am thinking of doing, but if it costs to have it looked at, then it would have to wait til I get paid, and of course I need to know how much to save back).
Thank you for your help.
Also. If I posted in wrong section. Kindly tell me. Thank you.You can take the computer to the Apple store to have it checked out.

How much does it cost to have Apple replace the plastic casing?
I'm planning to buy an Ex-Display MacBook from my local PCWorld but the casing has a pretty nasty scrape down the edge of the lid. I was wondering if anyone knew how much Apple would charge to replace the plastic casing of the lid? Otherwise the laptop is in perfect new condition!
Many thanks.Apple will not replace the plastic on the lid. They only replace complete components, which means they would replace the entire screen assembly. Probably bout a $500 repair.

How much does it cost to have a bluetooth module put in my Mac Pro?
Got a Mac Pro 1, 1 without Bluetooth. Now I want it and am one of THOSE people who hates to use up a USB port when there's a perfectly good internal spot for the component. Am I just letting myself in for heartache or would it be a relatively inexpensive and painless trip to the Genius Bar?
Good call, Jason.
I'm off to a slow start this morning.
The answer to my question is yes -- it's do-able. The card is 28 dollars and they will waive the installation charge at the store I called.
I have installed stuff on various Macs for 20-some years, but this is one of those things that looks like a royal pain if you don't have the exact tools and a grounded bench, etc.
So now it's just waiting for the part to come in and taking my box to the store some evening for a quick installation.
Thanks again for the voice of reason, Jason.

How much does it cost to get an iphone 5c screen replacement?

If your iPod Touch, iPhone, or iPad is Broken
Apple does not fix iDevices. Instead, they exchange yours for a refurbished or new replacement depending upon the age of your device and refurbished inventories. On rare occasions when there are no longer refurbished units for your older model, they may replace it with the next newer model.
ATTN: Beginning July 2013 Apple Stores are now equipped to do screen repairs/replacements in-house on iPhone 5 and 5C. In some cases while you wait. According to Apple this is the beginning of equipping Apple Stores with the resources needed to do most repairs for iPhones, iPads, and iPod Touches that would not require major replacements. Later in the year the services may be extended as Apple Stores become equipped and staffed with the proper repair expertise. So, if you need a screen repaired or a broken screen replaced or have your stuck Home button fixed, call your local Apple Store to see if they are now doing these in-house.
You may take your device to an Apple retailer for help or you may call Customer Service and arrange to send your device to Apple:
Apple Store Customer Service at 1-800-676-2775 or visit online Help for more information.
To contact product and tech support: Contacting Apple for support and service - this includes international calling numbers.
You will find respective repair costs in the appropriate link:
iPod Service Support and Costs
iPhone Service Support and Costs
iPad Service Support and Costs
There are third-party firms that do repairs on iDevices, and there are places where you can order parts to DIY if you feel up to the task:
1. iResq or Google for others.

I would like to purchase Contribute. We currently do not have any of the creative suites or Contribute. How much does it cost to just get the single user for Adobe Contribute CS5? And how do I purchase that?
I think it's just a little over $200 if you don't have an older version to upgrade. Around $100 if you do.
You can get it at www.adobe.com/products/contribute.html.
Click the "buy" button (top right of the page) then select "full" next to where it says "I want to buy". Add it to your cart (at that point you should get the exact price).
