My track pad on m macbook is going out how much is it to get that fixed?

Has anyone had to have their track pad fixed on their Macbook (2008)? If so what does something like that cost?
Thanks

Talk to the Genius Bar at Apple Store.
We are just users who cannot see the device.  And there could be more than just the Trackpad, or could be only trackpad.

    I recommend you to run Apple Hardware Test > http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1509 It's possible that something is damaged, and Apple Hardware Test will help you finding it. Make sure you tick the option to run an extended test, and connect your Mac to the charger.
    If your Mac came with DVDs, you have to insert the Mac OS X DVD to run Apple Hardware Test. As you haven't got the SuperDrive, you will have to buy an external optical drive

  • How much RAM should I get my new MacBook installed with?

    How much RAM should I get my new MacBook installed with? I'm planning on getting a new Macbook sometime this fall. I'll probably be a light user, mostly internet, email, and your occasional Letter/Envelope.
    Are their any other options that I'll want to make sure that I get?
    Oh, and this will also be my very first Mac.
    Thanks,
    Jeff

    In the link Alvin Ray posted it shows the different configurations that can be used in RAM. Officially Apple states that the MacBook supports 2 GB Ram. It can hold 4 GB but only uses 3 GB. The 4 GB would only benefit the matched pair use for optimum graphics. Unless you do a lot of very graphic intensive work 3 GB should be fine.

  • How do I find out how much space I have left on my macbook pro? I downloaded the new mavericks operating system and can't figure it out. Before the space would be at the bottom of my finder.

    I downloaded the new mavericks operating system on my macbook pro and I can't find out how much space I have left. Before the installation of mavericks, storage space left was displayed at the bottom of the Finder window.

    In the Finder, under the View menu there is an option to Show Status Bar.  Select that and you will see the info on the bottom of folders again.

  • I want to find out how much space on my macbook pro hard drive is from iphoto pics

    i have a macbook pro (2008) w/186 g hard drive, w/OS 10.5.8.  I want to find out how much (% or # of gigabytes) of the hard drive is pics from iPhoto.  does it sort by type (e.g., apps) ?

    Click on Pictures in the Finder’s sidebar, select the iPhoto library, and choose Get Info from the File menu. If you’re using multiple libraries, you’ll need to do this on each one.

  • The track pad on my MacBook Pro is going crazy what can I do?

    Yesterday I tried using my Mac book pro when I noticed that my track pad wasn't working it would either move really slow or not at all and then when it does move it goes all crazy and starts moving or clicking things with out me doing anything what can I do two days ago it was working fine and I have tried cleaning the track pad 

    The same happend to me, you need to call applecare or take it to the genius bar to have the trackpad swapped out. I hope you have applecare becuase the unibody macbooks will need the whole bottom chassis replacing which can be pricey.
    Just a quick fix (it will only work for around 30 mins each time) untill you can take it in. Press all four corners of the trackpad down hard (without breaking it) then let go. Your trackpad should work for a short while.

  • I am getting electric current type shocks whilst using my track pad on my macbook pro. This happens when it is both plugged in to charge and also unplugged. I am left with a constant type pain of prickly pins and needles even when I am not using it.

    I have recently bought a Macbook pro and have noticed that I am getting an electric current running up my fingers when using the track pad. This happens when it is charging but most worryingly it happens when it is not plugged in. It leaves me with pins and needles type feeling in my hand and arm even when I am not using it. Also when I sit it on my lap I get the same electrical current in my legs and down to my feet.
    Surely this cannot be what I should expect with an apple product?, has anyone else experienced this?.
    Yesterday I couldn't bare to use it the current was so strong.  I went out for the rest of the day and suffered with pins and prickly needles all day.

    Two possible courses of action suggest themselves:
    (1) Return your computer immediately to point of purchase and/or authorized service provider.
    or
    (2) Consult with your doctor about your neurological symptoms.

  • Why can't I use my MagicMouse and my track pad on my MacBook Pro 17" simultaneously?

    I bought my son a new MacBook Pro and I now have his older one (2008).  It still works like it was brand new but I found out, as I was personalizing it that the Magic Mouse and track pad won't work simultaneously.  It's either one or the other.  I have a 15" MacBook Pro about the same age and I can use them both together.  Is there a setting somewhere within the system preferences?

  • Are there any provisions in place for overseas military not able to buy direct from Apple Store to get an option of a track pad instead of magic mouse when buying a new iMac? It seems that the new OS is going to NEED trackpad and magic mouse will moot

    I AM A PASSIONATE APPLE USER. Please don't get me wrong. I love every Apple product we have. I am just a bit discouraged that as a person living and working overseas, I do not have the same opportunity to build my Mac to my specifications. I am bound to buying the products through the Exchange. I appreciate that they are carried but when I compare to the Store, I am discouraged that there are some FREE options offered to Stateside folks not offered to AAFES/Exchange consumers. I want a track pad instead of a mouse. It seems that is where Mac technology is headed. Lion will all but REQUIRE it for many of the new features coming! Apple should offer new purchasers the opportunity for a free upgrade to a track pad!

  • Broke track pad  on my MacBook Pro  that is less then 18 months old . I was told it will cost  $439 to fix! Help!

    I am shocked that my MacBook Pro is only 18 months old and it already needs such a costly repair. I thought this was going to be a better computer lesson learned the hard way about a $2000 lesson I will never buy another Apple computer again. I feel like I got a lemon. Any suggestions?

    Grow up, get it fixed or buy a PC. We're not here to commiserate.
