My Problem

my wife got a new 13" apple with wohw .. anything you can believe! now my old boy was not real satisfied 15" ok better ... but 120gigs sorry and these 2gb ram forget!!!

"So go on and make my day peter" ... he said = better hard disk, more ram and an optical drive? forget it ... we'll use this space for more power!

My Fix

The instructions were fantastic! thanx 4 this great chance to do it right! the pro tech base toolkit = the best i ever bought 4 this price!

I replaced the 120gb hd with the new one from ifixit. then i replaced the optical drive with with the ifixit optical bay data hard drive enclosure ... up to 6 gigs ram ... the 120gb in the enclosure ... after about 20 minutes ... ready!

My Advice

there is a little known problem on the optical bay side, cause the old hd is to hot. so i replaced the old hd on the optical enclosure with a ssd hd ... Now my old boy is sometimes real faster than his young brother on my wife's desk!!!

My Problem

I found my macbook increasingly inefficient when dealing with editing programs this was beginning to hamper my work.

My Fix

Easy-peezy... half an hour or so and it was all installed. I also brought a cheap HD enclosure to put the old HD in. I then plugged this in to the mac, it automatically rebooted from this and I was able to reformat the new internal HD and transfer all the data using Superduer.

My Advice

Compared to buying a new mac this upgrade saved me loads of dosh-not to mention the resources used in making a shiny new product. We shall see how it holds out but for now I am happy with my lighting fast machine. Make do and Mend- that is the watchword.

My Problem

I was trying to edit video using the Camtasia program. My computers' installed 2GB of RAM was way too slow - lagging and freezing - to allow practical use of the software. So, I opted to expand my MacBookPro #A1260 to 6GB of RAM.

My Fix

Easy... After you remove the RAM shield the computer practically offers the installed RAM to you.

I just used the pointed ends of a couple spudgers to move the metal clips holding down each RAM chip. The assembly holding the chip is spring-loaded and flips forward, allowing you to remove or install memory.

I removed two 1GB RAM chips and installed a 2GB chip and a 6GB chip. They worked upon reboot without any problems.

My Advice

None what-so-ever... installation guide was perfect.

My Problem

I asked the Apple rep at a store how much memory I could put on this laptop. The answer was 2GB. I'm developing numerical models that require lots of RAM, and the O.S. takes about 1GB. So I was thinking about doing a laptop upgrade.

My Fix

The kit I got for doing the HD replacement was useful, as the screws are very small. I experienced absolutely NO difficulty with this "operation".

My Advice

The instructions were clear. There isn't any more advice I could give.

My Problem

After the "Lion" upgrade,my computer (Mac Book Pro 17" Santa Rosa A1229) started to run like "Kitten",but I remembered reading here in IFIXIT that I could install 6GB Ram instead of my 4GB,now it runs like a Lion ;o))

My Fix

Simple fix ;o))

My Advice

Go ahead,its simple ;o))
