How to easily clean under 2012 MacBook Pro trackpad?

Ok so.... I know it's stupid of me and before I begin, I am ashamed of myself!! *facepalms*
I spilt a sticky berry drink on my MacBook Pro 2012, I've cleaned under the keys but some are still slightly sticky, but my point is some clearly got underneath the trackpad (it has no button so I can't easily stick a strip of paper under there), and I was wondering, is there any way to clean under the trackpad without any disassembly (at least not much, definitely not from the bottom)? If absolutely necessarry I will take it into my nearest Apple Store, but I'd rather that I could do it at home.
Thank you for your help
EXTRA DETAILS
I wiped the laptop down quickly, tried not to let it soak in too much.
Both the laptop and the trackpad and mouse are still working fine, and the exterior is clean, but it's simply just annoying as my left click does not feel like it's going down as deep as it should (it doesn't feel like the right click which has not changed).
I got it in October, but would rather have it fixed than replaced.
Thanks again,
opalsasha

Welcome to Apple Support Communities
Apple only supports client versions in Macs, but you should be able to install Windows Server. However, note that you may have problems installing Boot Camp drivers in order to make it work correctly.
If you only want a computer for Windows Server, buy a PC. Macs aren't completely ready for Windows Server editions even if they may work

  • How Do I Clean Up my MacBook Pro?

    Call me dumb, but I don't know how to "clean up" my computer. I am being told I don't have enough memory to open up an extra document. How can I fix that without throwing away a 1,000 pictures? Can I compress anything? Allot memory to different places? I know on my pc there was a way to squeeze it all together every now and again... Does the MacBook Pro have something like that?
    Thank you!

    Empty the trash!
    Open up your application folder & go through all your apps. Trash all the apps you no longer want and/or use.
    An easier way to do this is to open the Application folder in list view & press the Command+j keys.
    In the the dialog that appears, click the "This Window Only" button & the "Calculate All Sizes" check box.
    Wait a bit until your file & folder sizes have all been calculated, then click the "Size" column to sort your apps from the fattest to the most anorexic.
    Get rid of all your photo files you don't want and/or need. Same goes for those pics off the websites you downloaded (gifs, jpegs, etc.).
    I'm old fashion. I still keep my photos in a photo album. So when people come over my house, they can actually "touch" & "feel" my photos without me running to my computer to "show my photos".
    Get rid of all your music files you no longer listen too. Especially, if you already have the actual CDs and/or DVDs or you can later redownload from a website.
    Use Spotlight to make sure you got rid of everything. You can even trash directly from Spotlight!
    Drag what you don't want and/or need to the trash. Better yet, download this neat little shareware app demo called AppZapper. It basically does all the work for you by not only trashing the apps but the apps preference files, caches & all its associated files.
    Another software that does the above is AppDelete. Best of all this software is free!
    Burn what you want and/or need onto CDs or DVDs.
    Not everyone has the luxury of purchasing an external HD and/or a .Mac account to store their "stuff, junk, music & photos".
    You can check with your ISP to see if they offer free storage space. Most if not all do now-a-days. I store all 5000+ of my music (mp3s) files & 500+ music videos in my ISP storage bin.
    There are thousands if not millions of free storage facilities on the web also. Use your favorite search engine, Google &/or MacGoogle to search them out as they come in different storage sizes to fit your needs & wants.
    Check for duplicate fonts.
    Applications>Font Book
    Select “All Fonts”
    If you see any “black dots” next to any fonts this mean you have duplicates and/or multiple versions of these fonts.
    To clean this up, select a “black dotted” font or the Apple + click to select multiple dotted fonts;
    Edit>Resolve>Duplicates.
    What the above does is turns off the duplicates & multiple version fonts. Not delete them.
    More than likely the “extras” were installed by other programs and/or other users.
    Clear out font caches
    Use FontNuke. It does all the work for you. And, best of all it’s FREE.
    Printer Drivers
    Get rid of all the printer drivers you don’t need & use except the ones for your current printer(s)/scanner(s).
    HD>Library>Printers Folder
    If you accidently threw something out that you needed for your printer/scanner it can be easily obtained from the manufacturer’s website and/or from the CD that came w/the printer/scanner.
    Garage Band
    Has about 1GB of loops stored. Get rid of some some them. You surely don’t use, like and/or need them all.
    HD>Library>Audio/Apple Loops>Apple>Apple Loops For GarageBand
    Or just get rid of the Garage Band app altogether if you don’t use it.
    Get rid of extra languages
    Strip your computer down to your “native” tongue.
    You can do this with a FREE utility called Monolingual. Another app that apparently does all the work for you. I’ve never used it. However, a lot of users here swear by & recommend it highly.
    However, there is a warning for *native English speakers*. Make sure you keep BOTH English and English (United States).

  • How to get install disk for lion on 2012 macbook pro

    How do i get a reinstall disk for drivers and lion as well as ilife so i can install a new ssd drive in my computer

    As Niel said, you have to install OS X through OS X Recovery. Respecting to iLife, if your Mac came with DVDs, you should have it on the Applications DVD that came with the Mac, and if it didn't come with DVDs, open App Store > Purchases, and install iPhoto, iMovie and GarageBand.
    Then, if you want, you can download OS X from the App Store instead of using Recovery, so you can burn the installer onto a DVD or USB drive with Lion Diskmaker, so you won't have to redownload OS X each time you want to reinstall. As you have a Mid 2012 MacBook Pro, it will only work if it came with OS X Lion and you upgraded to Mountain Lion

  • How to connect mid 2012 MacBook Pro to home theater system

    Okay so I'm looking at purchasing a home theater system and was wanting to know the best way to connect my mid 2012 MacBook Pro to the home theater system and TV. I am wanting to play both movies (Netflix etc) and music. Will my MacBook play 5.1 surround sound to the home theater system? Whats the best way to connect this all up? MacBook audio to the home theater system via Digital Optical from the headphone port with a 3.5mm to toslink adapter and then video to the TV via HDMI cable from the thunderbolt port with thunderbolt to HDMI adapter? My thinking was to separate the video and audio to get the best picture and sound. Any help/advice on this would be greatly appreciated.

    Will my MacBook play 5.1 surround sound to the home theater system?
    Yes.
    Whats the best way to connect this all up?
    An AppleTV or any AirPlay-enabled AVR. AirPlay is wireless, though you could use wired Ethernet if you want to avoid all the potential problems associated with wireless. Make sure it specifically says AirPlay which is Apple's proprietary technology. There are quite a few of them to choose from today. Denon is one, I believe Pioneer, there may be others. Shop around. The AppleTV's price was recently reduced to $69 US and may actually be the most cost-effective solution, allowing you to research the best AVR for your needs. The AppleTV has both HDMI (audio and video) and optical audio outputs.
    MacBook audio to the home theater system via Digital Optical from the headphone port with a 3.5mm to toslink adapter and then video to the TV via HDMI cable from the thunderbolt port with thunderbolt to HDMI adapter?
    Way too complicated But if you really don't want to use AirPlay, you can purchase an inexpensive (< $10) Thunderbolt to HDMI adapter and an equally inexpensive (<$3) HDMI cable to any HDMI input on your AVR.
    My thinking was to separate the video and audio to get the best picture and sound.
    It makes absolutely no difference. HDMI and optical audio use completely identical digital audio signals.

  • How to use my earpods with my 2012 macbook pro

    I can not get the inline microphone to work on my earpods with my 2012 macbook pro.  It will not reconize it.  Help please!

    I have an A1286(Early 2011) MBP with OS X 10.8.2. Using my headphone jack with earpods has been sporadic. Sometimes I get the mic, sometimes I don't. I just now took a paper clip and worked it around inside the jack. I plugged my headphones back in appears to be working. Could be something inside the jack is bent and not making contact with the mic part of the plug.
    Your mileage may vary. I assume no liability if you damage something.
    Tried it again and it doesn't seem to be working anymore. For my MBP I think it is a hardware issue. Either dust or something is getting in between the contacts and the plug or the contacts are just not touching the plug. I'm gonna take a crack at dismantling my MBP and see if it's something simple like bending the contacts so they touch the headphone plug.

  • I have a 2012 Macbook Pro and the GPU is causing issues with Yosemite. How can I resolve this issue?

    I have a 2012 Macbook Pro and the GPU is causing issues with Yosemite. There are a number of issues I have run across:
    If I have four tabs open on Safari then I start to get a flickering on the screen from the GPU refreshing
    When I leave the computer alone for more than 20 mins the screen saver should start -- what happens is that the screen goes to black. When I move the cursor I do not get the login screen. I have to reboot
    FireFox Web browser will not run
    I get issues with the computer running very slowly
    I have already turned off the transparency option in settings. Any ideas??
    Cheers

    Do you have more than one OS on the Mac?
    You may want to look at something like http://bjango.com/mac/istatmenus/. This has a Free Trial window, but it is a commercial application. If there are any heat/sensor issues, this may help.
    A SMC Reset or PRAM/NVRAM reset may also help.

  • My 15" 2012 macbook Pro keeps freezing. How do I amend this issue?

    It's always while I'm browsing the internet in Chrome, usually when music is being played through the browser, on youtube for instance (though I don't know if that's relevant or not). The whole screen just freezes and the sound stutters. I'm always forced to restart the computer in order to solve the problem. I've pasted the crash report below for reference, does anybody have any suggestions?

    I just experienced a similar issue with my 15-inch, Mid 2012 MacBook Pro. I was also using Google Chrome at the time. I was closing a few browser tabs (3-5 tabs, nothing absurd).
    The cursor disappeared and the machine became unresponsive. The screen froze without the typical kernel panic backtrace appearing. I let it sit for a few minutes and the clock did not update. I forced it to shut down by holding power button down for 5 seconds. Upon reboot I got the following crash log. This log lead me to your post.

  • After upgrade to Mavericks, AppleTV no longer mirrors my mid-2012 Macbook Pro's accessibility zooming.

    Prior to Mavericks upgrade, I had accessibilty zooming enabled using the control hotkey with two-finger scroll.
    The zoom effect would be duplicated in AppleTV and transmitted to an overhead projector in my classroom.
    This feature is very useful for directing student's attention to a particular region of the screen.
    However after the upgrade, AppleTV no longer mirrors the zooming effect.
    I can see the zoom on the laptop, just not on my projector.
    I can see zooming on the projector if I use the VGA adapter and plug directly into projector.
    Laptop:
    mid-2012 Macbook Pro
    OS X 10.9
    8gb RAM
    2.3 GHz Intel Core i7
    Have tried variety of displays settings and none work including:
    --selecting best for display or AppleTV
    --changing the resolution
    AppleTV
    model: MD199LL/A
    software: 6.0 (6646.65)
    resolution: 1024x768 60hz (my projector requires this)
    Projector:
    HP vp6320
    I use an HDMI to VGA/Audio adapter to convert to VGA for my projector.
    I seem to recall that overscan correction was an option to set under Mountain Lion, but I can't find that when doing a Spotlight search in System Preferences. Not sure if that would help or not but thought I'd mention it.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Same problem. Zoomed image will not show on the Apple TV screen even though it does show on your laptop or desktop.
    I tried every aspect of System Preferences>Displays and Accessibility. None worked. Problem was presented to an Apple Specialist on his Mavericks computers and his Apple TV. Same thing. He said this appears to be a Mavericks glich and immediately went to transmit the problem to Cupertino.
    A poor "work around" is to use System Preferences>Accessibility and under Zoom, select Zoom Style "Picture-inPicture" which will result in a "zoom box." The box can be scaled to a desired size and activated with the Control-Scroll motion. This box will display zoomed on the Apple TV screen. The default Zoom Style selection "Fullscreen" did not and will not show on the Apple TV screen even though it does show on your laptop or desktop
    The problem: the zoomed "magnified" image loses resolution and if zoomed far enough, becomes "pixilated."
     Apple needs to fix this or tell us how to go back to the earlier Control-Zoom which I think the "Fullscreen" was intended.

  • I want to reinstall OS on my 2012 MacBook Pro. It shipped iwth 10.8, but now runs 10.9. Can I reinstall to 10.9, I do I have to reinstall 10.8 and upgrade again to 10.9?

    I want to reinstall OS on my 2012 MacBook Pro. It shipped with 10.8, but now runs 10.9. Can I reinstall straight to 10.9, or do I have to reinstall 10.8 and upgrade again to 10.9?

    Best to install 10.9 straight up. If you still have your OS 10.9 downloaded file you can use that, or you can go to the app store and download it again. It will be in your previous purchase history. Or you could even upgrade to 10.10. If you want to start from scratch you will need to boot from USB or DVD and initialise (erase) your internal HD. To do create a bootable USB thumb drive with OS 10.9 or 10.10 follow this guide
    Create a bootable installer for OS X Mavericks or Yosemite - Apple Support
    And heres a how to on installing a fresh copy of Yosemite (OS X 10.10)

  • InDesign CS5 crashing on 2012 MacBook Pro

    I have a 2012 MacBook Pro and am running CS5. My InDesign keeps crashing every time I try to open it. After googling the issue, it appears that happened to a lot of people running CS5 on a 2012 MacBook Pro. Does anyone know how to easily resolve this issue? Illustrator and Photoshop work fine.

    No, you'll have to contact Adobe if you want to upgrade to CS5.5. sig just gave you the link to teh Roaring Apps website that lists comapatible software for use with Lion and Mountain Lion. If I were you, I would just go ahead and update to CS6 - or begin using Adobe's Creative Cloud. Since I had purchased a qualifying product (CS6 Design and Web Premium) I was eligible to subscribe to Creatiev Cloud for only $30 per month. Even at $50 per month, it's a great deal - all of the Adobe software you'd ever need for about 1/3 or less of your cable bill.
    Good luck - check out the free one month trial of Creatiev Cloud - http://www.adobe.com/products/creativecloud.html.

  • Need help migrating 2006 Macbook Pro to 2012 Macbook Pro

    Hi -- The screen on my 2006 Macbook Pro (running 10.9.2) completely stopped working last weekend. It doesn't light up at all. I've tried everything under the sun to get it functioning again but I believe it is just totally dead. I tried plugging an external monitor, mouse and keyboard into it and cannot get it to show up on the screen, which is driving me crazy! The monitor works just fine with my 2011 Mac Mini (running 10.6.8). I have been able to access the hard drive via target disk mode using the Mini and copy all of the files onto an external drive, which brings me relief that not everything is lost. I tried to boot the drive in startup manager on the Mini to do a Time Machine backup and the Mini didn't even enter startup manager. It just completely ignored the fact that I was pressing the Alt key at startup and proceeded to login normally! I have tried it several times and no dice. I'm feeling frustrated! Argh! Am I doing something wrong? Am I crazy? Anyways...
    I bought a refurbished 2012 Macbook Pro and I would like to transfer all of my applications from the 2006 using migration assistant but I've read that some of them might not transfer correctly, such as Adobe CS6 suite and Final Cut Pro X. Unfortunately, I don't have the disks for these applications. Am I totally out of luck or is there a way to do this that I haven't seen yet? I'm willing to try anything at this point. Another question I have is will a Thunderbolt to Firewire adapter work with my 2006 MacBook Pro?
    If you have any insights on how to transfer all of my stuff over, I would very much appreciate it. Thank you!

    Yep, it was in target disk mode. I don't have a thunderbolt-firewire adapter, but I'm going to get one and try that -- I honestly wasn't sure if it would even work with my older Mac. I ran migration assistant with the Macbook Pro 2006 in target disk mode connected to the 2012 with an ethernet cable and it didn't find the drive.
    So there's really no way for me to gather all of the various folders for FCP and put them on the new Mac?
