Can i replace the whole topcase assembly (keyboard plus trackpad) of my white MacBook 4,1 early 2008 with a topcase assembly (keyboard plus multitouch trackpad ) from a mid-2010 macbook?? my topcase is cracked and i want to replace it..

No, the connectors on the logic board are different for the multi touch model 7,1 top case.

Hard drive dies if you put a MacBook Pro on top of a white MacBook

Myself and one other have had this same problem. Sleep a white macbook and start using your 2006 MacBook pro on top of it. After a few mins it freezes and only the mouse pointer works with mostly the beach ball. Hard reboot and then you just get clicking noises from the hard drive (stuck on grey screen sometimes with the spinner or question mark or sometimes blank)and it has mechanical failure. Just coincidence or a real problem?
Post here if you have had this same problem thanks.

I was originally using it on my knee then when moving it to a table I just happened to place it on top of another MacBook instead of clearing space, I didn't think it would be a problem.
Nop the hard drive no longer works. It spins up but makes a clicking sound like the heads are damaged. If you tap the case then it sounds like it starts reading and the apple and spinner appear on the grey screen but it eventually just spins down.
Its possible the magnet in the Macbook case done it, although wouldn't that cause problems with the Macbooks own drive all the time?

Cracked hinged of Macbook mid-2010

The Macbook mid-2010 has an expired warranty, both sides of the hinge has a hairline crack. I called Apple Customer Service this afternoon and said that I can have this fixed but I have to pay for it. Is it possible to just bring this to Apple then just add a little amount in exchange for say an MBA 11" 64gb? I hope Apple will consider a global recall for this product, they could at least give a free repair. Anybody with same problem?

ok, I brought the Macbook to a Genius Bar (2hours drive), they said that they won't replace the Macbook nor give a free repair since it's out of warranty, their charging me $200+ (forgot the exact amount, maybe $280+) for the repair. It's so expensive, so I decided not to push through and the guy from the Genius Bar advised me it is not worth it to pay that amount for a small crack, he also said to use it more often and let the crack get bigger Apple might replace the whole unit for free if the crack is big enough! I hope Apple will recognize the problem so there would be a global recall or replacement of the Macbook mid-2010.
By the way, this is the image of the crack on the right side. There's also a smaller crack on the left side.

Will a MacBook Pro a1278 top case fit on a a1280

hello I have a macbook pro a1280 (late 2008) and my top case is pretty dented on the sides and stuff and I wanted to replace it now when I'm looking on google I don't find a top case for the a1280 I see one for a a1278 now I noticed that the a1278 case looks like the a1280 and it has the battery compartment like mine does now I just need a new blank case no mother bored no parts just a blank case all I want to know is if I buy it and put my mother bored and parts from the a1280 case and put it in a1278 case will it fit and work?

The problem I face with your query, there is no a1280 Macbook Pro that I can find. The a1278 are 13" models from 2009 through 2012.
Go to the iFixit.com and powerbookmedic.com web sites and check the parts they have listed. You may find your answer there.
Ciao.

Keyboard Backlight in Macbook mid 2010?

Is it possible to put a backlight keyboard on my Macbook mid 2010? Recent Macbooks have keyboard backlights installed already.
Thank you!

No, the logic board desn't have the hardware for it. The Late 2008 2.4Ghz Aluminum Unibody was the only MacBook to have the backlit keyboard. MacBook Pros are the only other Macs to have the backlit keyboard.

Upgrade RAM on my MacBook (mid 2010)

Hi everyone,
I bought the latest generation MacBook (mid 2010) last year and now I'd like to upgrade my Ram from the defalult 2 GB (2x1GB) to 4GB (2x2GB). My question is: where can I buy my new RAM? The Apple Store is way to expensive....so I decided to buy it somewhere else.
I live in Italy and I've found this website that sells Mac-compatible RAM....what do you think of this (Kit 4 GB (2x2 GB) RAM SODDR3 1067 per MacBook/Pro Unibody)...? Another option would be buying my new RAM on other websites...such as Crucial or Kingston....what do you think? Is there anyone of you who has already done the upgrade and so can suggest me the best solution?
Thank you very much in advance to anyone who would like to help me!

Thank you very much for your reply! Another question: which type of screwdriver do I need? The TORX one?
If there's someone else who wants to add his experience in upgrading RAM, please reply to my post!

I want to buy a hard case for my macbook pro, but I don't know what year it is. When I use the serial number to try and find out, all it says is, "~VIN,MacBook Pro (15-inch Glossy)". When I type that into amazon for a case it gives me nothing!

Where can i get the macbook pro (2010) bootcamp drivers for windows 7?

I recently decided to install windows 7 ultimate (32-bit) on my macbook pro (2010 model). However my macbook did not come with installation disks, i know this for a fact and it came pre installed with 10.6. And when i try to download the windows support files through bootcamp assistant, it says that the download cannot continue. So where can i get these drivers from?

All MBP's with Snow Leopard (10.6) came with an installaton disc, and that is where the drivers are, if you don't have (or didn't get) the disc contact Apple for a replacement, there is no downloadable version of BC3

Where can I purchase a rubber/silicone case for my MacBook air?

I am searching for a silicone (soft) case for my MacBook Air. Does anyone know where I may purchase one? I'm not referring to the rubberized hard shell cases found via Amazon and/or eBay. I want one that is similar to the silicone cases you put on an iPod or iPad.

Haven't seen one of those, but I did find a thin, padded neoprene case by NuCase at the Apple store...check the on-line store and see what they have.

Protective Case for my Macbook Pro?

ive been looking for a protective case (shell) for my Macbook Pro 15", but all the ones i keep finding are for the older model (black keys, 2 USB ports on the left instead of 1 like mine has etc..).
anyone have any links to cool shell cases for my Macbook Pro?
thanks!!
-Sin

Your post is very confusing, since it's the current models that have black keys and all their ports on the left side. The older models have silver keys and ports on both sides. You seem to have gotten this backwards, and you don't tell us clearly which model you have. Choose About This Mac from the Apple menu, click "More Info", and tell us what appears in System Profiler > Hardware as the Model Identifier for your MBP. It will be something like 3,1 or 5,1 — a number in that format. That will tell us what sort of MBP you need a shell for.

The startup disk may need repairing...
Startup your Mac while holding down the Command + R keys.
From there you should be able to access the built in utilities in OS X Recovery
