What is the cost to replace a MacBook Pro trackpad?

I have an early 2011 15" MacBook Pro. Recently, my trackpad suddenly stopped working one night. The pointer would move around the screen without me touching the computer, and the click would only respond about half the time. So, in an attempt to save money, I bought a replacement trackpad and googled how to replace it. I successfully replaced the trackpad, only to have the cheap replacement crack in the top right corner. On top of that, it still doesn't work. It's no longer moving on its own, but now it's just extremely hard to navigate around the screen. However, I'm assuming this may have something to do with the cracked glass.
My question is - how much is it for Apple to replace the trackpad? I was trying to save money, but I would rather pay a little extra to have the replacement done right. I'm no longer in warranty, and unfortunately, Apple support wants to charge me $19 to ask this question.
Any input is appreciated! Thanks!

Make an appointment at an Apple store genius bar and they will examine the MBP and give you a quote.  You mat accept or reject it.

    Clean the dock connector with a soft, dry brush.  Clean out the headphone jack.
    Basic troubleshooting from the User's Guide is reset, restart, restore (first from backup then as new).  Try each of these in order until the issue is resolved.
    Deciding that a hardware issue exists before doing basic troubleshooitng is just jumping to conclusions.

  • What is the average lifespan of a macbook pro?

    I'm really curious because I want my macbook to be useful for a couple of years. I just purchased the newest model out. Does anyone know or have experience of their long life macbook pro's? How long has anyone's macbook pro lasted? And I don't mean by the battery, but the whole laptop. Or in general, what is the average lifespan of a macbook pro?

    If you take good care of it, you can get a decade or more out of it.
    The LEDs that provide the display backlighting will eventually wear out and need to be replaced. Likewise, the LCD screen itself isn't going to last forever. The point is: for a high-technology product, the MBPs have an incredible lifespan. They're very good laptops.
    I have G4 PowerBooks that are 5 years old and still going strong. Apple notebooks are good quality, long-lasting machines.

    go to the Store and configure all the models with upgrades but... an SSD will be fast and responsive, no noise or heat and adds $200 probably to the cost

  • What is the right charger for a MacBook Pro 13"  mid 2009 model?

    What is the right charger for a MacBook Pro 13" mid 2009 model? I have two chargers for two different Mac and don't know which is  thankswhich. I'm really looking for specific details such as voltage/watts and all the rest to idenify my charger.  A link to where to web page where I could purchase the correct charger would also be very useful. Many thanks.
    All help much appreciated. THANK YOU

    Both power adapter I have are different (at the magnet end) from the one in link.
    Earlier adapters have T shaped connectors, which Apple later changed to the L shape, presumably to make them more abuse-proof. Either one is fine and the one you are using will not damage your Mac.
    Retina MBPs and new MBAs use a completely different MagSafe 2 connector which will not fit (without an adapter).

  • What's the best SSD for a Macbook Pro 13" Mid 2010?

    Hello.
    I will upgrade my 2010 Macbook Pro. I need to know what's the best SSD for my Macbook Pro. I was thinking about those:
    - Kingston SSDNow V+200 (SVP200S37A/120G) - 120 GB
    - CRUCIAL SSD M4 128 GB
    - CORSAIR SSD  Force Series GS 128 GB
    - SAMSUNG SSD 840 Series Basic 2.5" - 120 GB (MZ-7TD120BW)
    - CRUCIAL SSD interno Crucial v4 - 128 GB
    Those are the easiest to find on Portugal.

    It is my understanding that SATA III is backwards compatible to SATA II so that should not be an issue for your selection process.
    As an aside, you might be interested to know that your MBP can now have 16 GB RAM installed.

  • What is the best anti~virus for macbook pro?

    What is the best anti~virus foe macbook pro?

    None whatsoever. I'm sure that you've heard the line that "Macs don't get viruses"? That's almost true - Macs can be infected with malware, however, and can pass viruses onto PCs. See Thomas Reed's Mac Malware Guide. The only two virus packages that are usually recommended are both free - Sophos and ClamXav. If you feel that you need AV software, try one or both.
    Good luck,

    3GB. You can install 4GB. The computer will only utilize approximately 3.3GB though.

    what is the minimun battery backup of macbook pro 13inch 2012

    It will vary - you can download the free "Battery Health" from the App Store and it will give you approximate times of battery life for various tasks: Current Usage, Internet Browsing, Music, Movies, etc. Watching even YouTube videos can kill some battery life - to say nothing of actually watching a DVD, for example.
    Download the app and see what type of results you get - you'll be better equipped to estimate your battery life after a few sessions.
