Macbook topcase doesn't fit well into macbook.

I just recently installed a new topcase on my MacBook 2.0ghz and I noticed around the edges that there are small openings. like little cracks were I can almost peer into the computer. Why is that? is there something I need to do?

You probably bent the case when replacing the top case, and so now it doesn't fit as seamlessly as it should.
Good news is that it's purely cosmetic and shouldn't affect the running of your system. So just do your best to ignore it.

  • Will the Arctic Cooling Accelero S2 fit well into the G5 case?

    Before I buy Accelero S2 I would like to know if anyone has had success installing one of these in a G5. When I went to a forum to read about them everyone was putting them into PCs so it would be comforting to know if G5 users had success as well.
    Also if the product is listed under VGA does that mean it won't work on a DVI graphics card? I heard that DVI is a more advanced version of VGA does that mean that both VGA and DVI would be compatible with the Accelero S2? I am pretty sure that they usually have DVI and VGA both available on most graphics cards so it seems like it would be a non issue.

    Do you have room to allow it to fit? It works in Mac Pro which uses PCI Express, and VGA is just any video graphics card.

    See the pdf "Please check your card with the height restriction drawing to assure compatibility."

  • IPhone 3G stock and first gen charging cable doesn't fit cleanly.

    Has anyone else noticed that the charging cord that came from apple doesn't fit cleanly into their iPhone 3G? Mine fits crooked. It still charges and everything but it just doesn't fit right. This is true for the cord that came with the phone and the old cord from my own phone.

    It should fit flush and straight. I use multiple cables (the one that came with the iPhone, a BT Travel Cable, an old Griffin cable in the car (the one with the pinch-to-release clasp) - they all fit flush and straight in the iPhone 3G.
    You might want to have yours checked out at an Apple Store.

  • The new power cord I ordered for my macbook air doesn't fit, too long; my computer is three years old. have they changed the powercord?

    I have a three year old macbook air. I ordered a new powercord from amazon (two, actually), and it doesn't fit.
    The cord connection is too long for my computer.
    Is the new powercord a new size, and if so, is there any adapter?

    Yes, there is a new style adapter called MagSafe2, you need the original MagSafe adapter.

  • Where can I purchase a sleeve that fits well on my MacBook Pro with Retina display?

    I have been looking for one, but all that I find are ones originally designed for the old 15" MacBook Pro.  I want one that is made for the new, thinner MacBook.  Every time I think that I have found one, I read the reviews and they say that it really doesn't fit right.  This might not be the appropriate place to ask a question like this, but I thought that I'd give it a try.

  • My Olympic camera SD card doesn't fit into the SD card camera reader. Apple advised me to purchase the product in order to import photos to my IPad.

    My Olympic camera SD card doesn't fit into the SD card camera reader. Apple advised me to purchase the product in order to import photos to my IPad. How do I over ride this problem. How do I import photos from an Olympus FE-340 directly to my IPad?

    Your camera uses an OLympic XD picture card http://www.amazon.com/Olympus-xD-Picture-Memory-202332-package/dp/B002LC2DQ4/ref =pd_sim_sbs_p_1 This card has different dimensions compared to an SD card.
    You should be able to plug the cable that came with your camera into the camera connection kit to import the pics.

  • Cable doesn't fit into back USB ports

    My front USB port isn't working...everytime I plug a cable into it I get a message that reads "Power Surge on Hub Port" and it won't connect. My ports in the back are functioning, but I cannot connect my iPOd into them because the cord doesn't fit. Is there something I can buy (like a mini extension cord) that will connect them?
    Please help I am so frustrated. thanks!

    thanks so much for your help...
    I'm using a Dell Computer (it has Optiplex GX270 written on it) with Windows XP. If you need more info just tell me where to find it.
    Even when I plug in a USB cable (one that isn't connected to a device), the message still appears. The iPod connector does fit in the front, but not the back ones. I know the back ones work because I plugged a camera into one in the back and it worked, (it didn't in the front).
    I would just use the back ports for my iPod too but the cable is a little different and won't work. I think there is excessive plastic on the connector?

  • I am having difficulty including text with iPhotos I want to share through email.  I get a red exclamation mark along with a statement stating that the text doesn't fit into the designated text area.  This is so frustrating.

    I am having difficulty including text with iPhotos I want to share through email.  I get a red exclamation mark along with a statement stating that the text doesn't fit into the designated text area.  This is so frustrating. Before iLire11 I was easily able to share photos with email messages.  Arghhhh!

    In the iPhoto preferences you can set Apple Mail as your e-mail client and then it will work exactly as before

  • Dropped the computer, charger doesn't fit right. Help?

    I recently dropped my MacBook :'( and I didn't think it would have any lasting effects. HOWEVER, now the charger doesn't fit into the socket. I examined it and I THINK that the socket has been distorted by the fall. Help?
    p.s. I'm actually a middle school student, so if you answer this question, PLEASE write in regular English

    What model of Mac do you have? (Open 'System Profiler' and look at line 2. My computer says 'MacBook4.1')
    Once you know your model you can locate the appropriate repair guide on ifixit.com. It sounds like your "magsafe board" may have gotten damaged or knocked loose.
    You may want to consider taking the computer to a professional repair shop. You don't want to accidentally turn a minor repair job into a major repair job (and get your parents mad in the process).

  • Mini Display to VGA adapter doesn't fit

    I have an older(2008) MacBook and the MIni display to VGA adapter I purchased doesn't fit my book. Is there one that I can buy that will fit?

    The Late 2008 model 5,1 Aluminum Unibody and the Late 2009 model 6,1 and Mid 2010 model 7,1 White Unibody have a Mini DisplayPort. The Early 2006 model 1,1 through Early 2008 model 4,1s plus the Early and Mid 2009 model 5,2s have Mini-DVI ports.

  • Workspace doesn't fit the screen anymore...

    Hello.
    Since today (and Mac OS X's update I installed this morning, I guess), my Photoshop CS6 workspace doesn't fit the screen of my 12 inch Cintiq (connected to a 2014 Macbook Air).  No matter what I do, it keeps it wrong.
    Trying to set the photoshop window to the whole Cintiq screen with the "green" Mac OS corner button, this is what I get:
    Hitting F won't do the trick, this is what it gets me:
    I tried to clear the Photoshop prefs, without success.  I checked for updates and found there was a Photoshop update I had not yet installed, and I did install it, to no success.  Needless to say, this makes my copy of Photoshop most unusable, which is a really big problem for an illustrator like me.  I really wish I can solve this as soon as possible.
    Thanks.

    Yeah, no results. Still the same.
    If I take my main window and move it up by myself, it's just gonna stay there until the next click somewhere, then it gets back to this wrong placement,.

  • HT204291 When I airplay my ipad, it doesn't fit the tv screen

    I have ipad air and using toshiba tv. When I mirror the image to the tv screen, it doesn't "fit to screen". Are other people having this problem?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Mirroring won't fill the TV screen. The iPad has an aspect ratio of 4:3 and the iPhone 4S or prior an aspect ratio of 3:2, neither of these will fit exactly into a TV screen which as an aspect ratio of 16:9. The Apple TV will not zoom the mirrored image, because it may well cut off information which is situated at the top or bottom of the screen.
    You may wish to try each of the settings in ‘Settings > Audio & Video > Adjust for AirPlay overscan’ for the best setting that suits you.
