Need help identifying this part!! MBP 13" i5 2.5gig

Hi all, I opened up my mac to try and fix a dent in the case. Accidentally knocked off the tiniest of pieces from the logic board and I have no idea what it is. It looks like this (the picture is zoomed in):
[IMG]http://i61.tinypic.com/2wnbtpj.jpg[/IMG]
Does anyone know what it is or what it does? Here is the piece in context with the rest of the logic board:

Any help would be much appreciated!

Looks like a spacer or a pin on which another component sits to maintain separation from the logic board.  Looks like there should be more than one, though.
Go to www.iFixit.com and find the tear-down pix for your MacBook Pro and see if it shows up in there.

  • MSI P67A-G43 (B3) - Need help identifying this postcode

    Need help identifying this postcode:
    CPU:i7-2600k
    Mobo:MSI P67A-G43 (B3)
    PSU: Corsair 750w
    GPU isn't the problem since I replaced it and still get this postcode. RAM isn't the problem since I've tried four different sticks one at a time in each slot and still get the postcode. Getting no live video from the GTX580 and no onboard video. I think either the mobo or the CPU is the problem, don't want to have to send both in for RMA so if anyone can help me identify the postcode that'd be great.

    Hey Ctrl
    Well I happen to have the same beep code on my motherboard (P67A-C43 B3), after trying different suggestions from the MSI forum users and MSI technical support I ended up RMA(ing) my motherboard.
    You can try resetting the CMOS, by flipping the battery and leaving it like that for 5 minutes and putting it back to its original side. I highly doubt it is your cpu. Like anybody in the forum might suggest, try different components which appears you already did. I doubt your corsair is faulty. CPU and motherboard are your best bet that are faulty, and i highly doubt that it is the CPU because for there to find another person (you) that had the same problem as me since last friday (RMA board yesterday, wednesday) I find it highly unlikely.

  • Need help identifying apple part #

    My logic board on my G5 is done (according to the geniuses). No apple care, 2 years old, and $2,000 to fix. I've found what someone is selling as a new G5 logic board and has it listed as Apple part # 630-6692. I've googled and googled and can't find ANYTHING that has this number. Does anyone know what this is? Or, where I might find a used logic board for a G5 Dual 2.5 machine????

    most parts are "661":
    http://www.welovemacs.com/appomacg5du241.html
    as you can see, some boards also have "revisions" like "1" or "2" and revisions depend on processors and you'd need to look at parts list for your serial number to determine what goes with what.
    "630" thing on ebay got some kind of aluminum heat sink in the middle, and does not really look like PM G5 board (maybe that's why it's photographed in shielded bag)
    if it's Apple part, seller could post a pic from the sticker on the box, as a guess that thing could be anything - some printer or server board.

  • Need help identifying this video format

    A lady on the east coast made a documentary video but said that it was filled with pauses, for some reason. I told her that I'd import it into FCP and edit out the pauses for her.
    So she mailed me the DVD-R, and I tried to play it on my Mac, but DVD Player won't open it (a message appears saying "The media type is not supported.") Nor will the DVD player in a TV I have. Quicktime Player doesn't recognize it either.
    So I have to figure out how to play this thing.
    When I put the DVD-R into the Mac's optical drive, the icon of a DVD appears on the desktop. When I double-click on the icon, a window appears with a folder labeled DVD_VIDEO_RECORDER
    Inside this folder is another one labeled VIDEO_TS
    Inside that folder is a bunch of gray icons with "Exec" on them, labeled VIDEO_TS_BUP, VIDEO_TS_IFO, VIDEO_TS_VOB, and several labeled VTS_01_1.VOB, VTS_01_2.VOB., etc.
    Can anyone help me identify what format this video is in, and what sort of a player can play it?

    It's a DVD Video disc but it sounds like it was not "finalized" in the recorder that made it.
    You might be able to extract the .VOB files (the only interesting parts) with MPEG Streamclip.

  • Need help identifying socket part

    i recently tried to repair my ibook g4 14" and i the process of pulling the power adapter microphone cable connector, (the blue and white cable that plugs into the logic board in the upper left hand side right next to the phone cable) i pulled the socket out of the logic board, does anyone here know what that piece is or where i can find it and is it even possible to repair this on my own, any help would be greatly appreciated, on the side of piece it says "aces 02" if that helps
    -ryan

    Hey Ryan,
    .. i pulled the socket out of the logic board, does anyone here know what that piece is or where i can find it and is it even possible to repair this on my own,
    That's the power socket and I have done that as well. I made a special tool to do that now so I don't do that anymore.
    I have repaired two of these but you need some experience soldering SMT circuits.
    In both cases the trace under the socket is tiny tiny so I had to trace continuity to the opposite side of the circuit board. These were discrete SMT devices and were gigantic compared to the traces. I led the wires back through the board and soldered them to the bottom of the socket where the traces had pulled out.
    Since this happens so often I recommend that you don't disconnect this plug if at all possible. Rather swing the top case out of the way and tape it to the display along with the top shield.

    Hi-
    Any SCSI devices attached?
    SCSI card installed?
    Other PCI hard drive controller card installed? (Often report as SCSI to the system).
    The report indicated SCSI in the first line (and subsequent) following "backtrace", which is usually a good indicator of the source of the problem.

  • I need help identifying an old Macintosh game: it was a painting game where you rode a roller coaster to an art museum and you got to pick what kind of art work you were going to make. This was the early 90's and I've been trying to hunt it down

    I need help identifying an old Macintosh game: it was a painting game where you rode a roller coaster to an art museum and you got to pick what kind of art work you were going to make. It was animated, 2D i believe. This was the early 90's and I've been trying to hunt it down. I think there was some kind of animal in it, a giraffe maybe?

    Could you be thinking of Microsoft Home's "Fine Artist" for Macintosh, as shown in this Amazon.com listing?  This program was bundled with the Performa series of Macs during the mid-90s.

  • I purchased Adobe Acrobat x Pro recently and installed it, I have compatibility issues vision 2013. The adobe pdf converter  plug in stays inactive despite all my efforts to activate it, I need help with this? How can i get the plug in

    I purchased Adobe Acrobat x Pro recently and installed it, I have compatibility issues vision 2013. The adobe pdf converter  plug in stays inactive despite all my efforts to activate it, I need help with this? How can i get the plug in to work with Visio 2013?

    For MS Visio (any version) only the appropriate version of Acrobat *PRO* provides PDFMaker for Visio.
    For Visio 2013 specifically you must have Acrobat XI Pro (updated to at least 11.0.1).
