Replace keyboard for Macbook Pro

Hi,
I need a new keyboard for my Macbook Pro 15" with back lighting. It works fine, but I dropped my cigarette and it burned the "esc" key. Again the esc key works, but I have to push it hard, so I think I think that I need to replace the keyboard.
Is this something that can be fixed if I go to the Apple Store, or if not what are my options?
Thanks,
Johnny

Hi my ginger,
I found a keyboard on E-Bay:

This looks like it will fix my problem. Do you know if this is the right one? here is a image of my system - https://www.dropbox.com/s/if0xnx0u3suruj9/Screen%20Shot%202015-02-05%20at%204.26 .03%20PM.png?dl=0
Well Hopefully I can get somebody at the Apple store to replace it.
Thanks!
Johnny

  • Anyone Know Anything About Replacing Keyboard For Macbook Pro 17 Inch?

    So I have a two year old 17 inch 10.5.8 Macbook Pro and stupidly I used too much bathroom cleaner on keyboard and now ten keys dont work including important ones like T, Enter, B, ect. and Im using an external keyboard which makes it difficult to bring it portable.
    I took it to the Macbook Store here in Vancouver and it will be around $175 to fix it which is something I dont have. Does anyone recommend buying a used keyboard component on Ebay and installing it myself from tutorials? Has anyone done this?

    No, I don't recommend it. Of all the parts to work on in a Macbook Pro (old and new), the keyboard is one of the more difficult to repair/replace. If you haven't opened it up before, the keyboard isn't where you want to start.
    It's a pain not worth attempting if you aren't extremely patient, careful, techie and handy. You've got to have all the right tools. I've seen way too many Macbooks/Pros end up in worse shape by unsure owners attempting do it yourself repairs. There is just too much you could damage messing around.
    Ifixit.com has repair and tear down guides for every model to give you an idea of what is involved. http://www.ifixit.com/Browse/MacBook_Pro . The pre-unibody models have thin ribbon cables that have to be removed that can tear easily if not handled carefully.
    The easier and potentially safer solution is finding a complete replacement palmrest/top case with keyboard on ebay, but it will probably cost as much as what Apple is charging. Otherwise, stick with the external keyboard.

  • Keyboard for MacBook pro replaceable?

    On December 2007, my son bought a MacBook pro. Unfortunately on the way back to home the hair conditioner runs out and through the notebook case over the keyboard.
    Fundamentally: it is possible to exchange the (electronics of the) keyboard? Can I replace the keyboard with a new one? How much costs a new keyboard?

    Yes, the keyboard can be replaced. Of course, you are probably aware that the keyboard may not be the only part affected if the liquid seeped into the case. Your best bet may be to visit an Apple Authorized Service Center for the repairs.
    But, you can check out:
    http://www.ifixit.com
    The keyboard lists for US$120, and there are installation instructions for you:

  • How to set shortcuts for external keyboard for MacBook Pro?

    I attached a wired external keyboard (Apple aluminum) to my MacBook Pro. Several of the function keys are preprogrammed, and several are open. I want to program one of the open function keys to emulate the F11 key on the internal keyboard, the one that moves all open windows out of the way to show the desktop. The keyboard shortcuts tab in System Preferences only controls the internal keyboard.
    Does anyone know a way to do this?

    Bump. Searching for a solution to the same problem.

  • Keyboard for MacBook Pro

    Pse could you tell me what model keyboard would be compatible for my MacBook Pro running 10.5.8? Thanks

    I think it needs to be a wired keyboard because the one you mentioned says it is only ok for 10.6, not 10.5. I have found two different models, all second hand I think. The MB110LL/A seems to be the right one but is not easily obtainable but thre is also MB110B/A which I could get new but I don't know if it is compatiblel with 10.5.8? I have had my MBP a while but am happy with it, would just like a seperate keyboard for home use.

    Nobody in these forums represents Apple or any store.  To find out if you can buy something, you need to contact stores directly yourself.  The online store does not sell these, you can see that from their website.  Call the Apple retail store nearest you to see if they will make a special order.

  • Where do I find replacement keys for Macbook Pro late '11?

    My T-button is very loose and falls off as I type. I can see that the button is slightly broken underneath where it connects to the hinge. I want to buy/get a new key - where do I buy this?

    You can try an Apple store genius bar and see if they can help, and also try on-line at www.iFixit.com as they have a lot of parts for sale.

  • Where can I buy a replacement screen for macbook pro

    my screen broke and i want to know if i can have the screen replaced

    If it a fairly new MBP the only place to get a screen is from Apple. If it is 3+ years old look on iFixit.com and or other Mac parts resellers. A google search will turn up a few.

  • Where can I order a cyrillic liser engraving for my keyboard on Macbook Pro 15" ?

    Hi everybody, sorry for the wrong topic but can somebody tell me where can I order a cyrillic liser engraving for my keyboard on Macbook Pro 15" in Wisconsin or New York?

    I've never heard of anyone anywhere offering that service.  I suggest instead you look for a keyboard cover or replacement keyboard.  For keyboard covers do a google search.  For a keyboard, ask these folks:

  • Wifi replacement for MacBook Pro (Retina, Mid 2012)

    Over the last few months my wifi card has begun to get slower and slower and sometimes will not connect at all.  I spoke with an Apple tech, not at Apple and he said that Apple has had trouble with their Wifi cards on these MacBook's and it will likely need to be replaced. I am out of warranty and looked at the swap out video on iFixIt and it looks easy.
    What is not so easy is making sure to get the right replacement board.  Would like to use the later board to get a/c and Bluetooth 4.0.  Any ideas on part numbers and sources?  There are many parts on ebay and Amazon but it is hard to know which one is right.
    Thanks for any insight or help.  I understand others are in the same bind.
    Below is one I found but was not sure if it was right.

  • My keyboard on macbook pro (laptop) is acting weird. One key is not responding at all. Have verified using Keyboard viewer and some other keys are printing the unresponsive character at random.

    my keyboard on macbook pro (laptop) is acting weird. One key is not responding at all. Have verified using Keyboard viewer and some other keys are printing the unresponsive character at random. "z" is the unresponsive character.
    Is it a damaged keyboard ?
    The laptop is just 2 months old, will Apple replace it with a new one if its indeed a damaged keyboard or just repair, I use it for official purposes so being without a laptop is not much of an option.

    No one here works for Apple, so we don't know what Apple might or might not do.  If it's a genuine defect, they will of course repair it under warranty.  It is not their responsibility if it effects your ability to work or not, so that's on you.
    If, however, they determine that the key is problematic as a result of your misuse of the laptop, then everything is on you.  And trust me, if they find a glob of dried up beer or coffee there, they will charge you.
    Your only choice is to take it in for repair.

    I recently had to replace my 2009 Macbook Pro's hard drive.  I had the apple store upgrade the OS to Mountain Lion while it was in being repaired.  I want to restore all of my old data and files.  If I perform a restore from Time Machine, with a date prior to having the hard drive replaced, will it revert back to the old OS?

    No, it won't revert to the prior OS X but you you may have third party apps installed that were compatible with Lion that may not be compatible with Mountain Lion.
