MacBook bottom cleaning HELP??

Hi,
I have the new MacBook with the rubber bottom. A few days after buying it, I notice it gets very dirty often. Some of the stains just won't go. I need help on how to clean it properly. Anyone know how?

http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3226
"The bottom case of the MacBook uses a soft nonslip material. Use a 3M Gray Microfiber or soft dye-free, lint-free cloth to clean the bottom case.
It is safe to use isopropyl alcohol 70% or iKlear on the bottom case. Remove any surface dirt gently with your bare hand before proceeding with a cleaner and cloth. After cleaning, dry the bottom case with a soft, lint-free or micro fiber cloth."
Generally, just apply the same rules as to any other electronic item. Avoid water and avoid paper or cotton to clean it (the mini powder they generate can penetrate the case), use mini-cloth like the ones for glasses. For the product itself it depends if your case is alluminium or plastic but in any AppleStore or Eletronic retailer you'll find specific cleaning products.

  • Where can I get my MacBook Pro Cleaned to be Brand N E W? :]

    I wish to get my MacBook Pro, cleaned just about everywhere. Some places specificly I wan't to look new includes the key's, under the keys, on the glass screen, the bottom of the screen where the fan's are, the magsafe adapter port (seems to have accumulated black stuff), the track pad, and the bottom of the laptop. My question is, if I drop it off at the Apple Store, will they help me out? Will they clean it? I assume the least they would do would sell me supplies to do it myself, and that this is a stupid question, but if there is any products out there, any idea if the genius would have it overnight to be cleaned, or any answer at all would be very helpful . .  .. .

    Kappy- thanks for the heads up.
    Does that program give me the ability to simply sync the two computers? and not have to reinstall everything?
    Sorry I'm not a techie!
    Also- do you know if there is a way to , or does the above do, a copy of my mailboxes from various email folders on my desktop? 
    So I'm seeing all emails deleted and responded to, etc. across all my platforms? 
    When I checked the icloud mail option, in preferences, it only set up an icloud email account but does not appear to readjust any of my other desktop emails, (which are not applemails but incoming mail from websites.)
    Thanks again.
    Nick

    The Hardware Test detected a RAM problem.  Take out the chips and make certain that the connections are clean and reinstall them.  Make certain that they are well seated. 
    If the problem occurs again, test with one chip at a time.  Also swap bays if necessary.
    Please indicate if you have installed new RAM and if so what brand and the specifications.
    Ciao.

    There really isn't any workaround to the cost. You can't get the parts needed to fix it yourself. Only Apple has those parts and they do not sell them to end users.
    Sure you could take it apart and clean everything and the screen might start working again but then it might not. Depending on what cause it to stop working in the first place. Like something got shorted out.

    You need to get some software that allows your Mac to read and write to the NTFS disk.  There's a whole bunch of stuff out there, but this program has a good review, and you can try it for free.  I would move everything off of your external drive, reformat it into Mac OSX extended, and use it for your Mac.  You don't need NTFS anymore, unless you still have a Windows computer that needs it.

    After identifying the exact connectors you need, check the Apple Store online and/or eBay...you should be able to buy a cable with the correct connector on each end, rather than fooling with an adapter.

  • Wipe macbook pro clean

    i've been told it's a good idea to wipe my macbook pro clean (restore to factory) before upgrading from snow leopard to yosemite. seems it might prevent problems, provide a fresh start. i'm all backed up. what's next? opinions about doing it at all?

    I'll tell you that have your data backed up and simply install Yosemite without erasing the drive.  There is no point to it.
    Understand that there may be some applications (PPC based) that will not work with Yosemite, so be prepared for a little house cleaning and updating.
    Ciao.

    Try plugging it up to your computer and launching iTunes and either resetting it to factory settings or resetting to last sync. Hopefully it just noticing it's plugged up to iTunes will fix it. This happened to my friend once and all she had to do was plug it into her computer and that fixed it.

    Replacement System Discs can be obtained from Apple's Customer Support - US (800) 767-2775 for a nominal fee. You'll need to have the model and serial number of your Mac available.
    If you're not in the US, you may need to go through the regional Apple Store that serves your location to find the contact number - http://store.apple.com/Catalog/US/Images/intlstoreroutingpage.html

    Firstly, please turn off your Caps lock. It is considered shouting in forums.
    Secondly, please explain your exact issue and wheteher or not you can see your purchase in the App Store and if you are using the same Apple ID to reinstall it with as you used to purcase it with.
    Thanks
