My Problem

My old battery had something like 8,000 cycles on it so I needed to replace it.

My Fix

It didn't go very well. The new battery wouldn't fit. I ended up cutting away some of the battery case to make it fit better, but its still not perfect. At least now its flush with the rest of the case.

Also the corners on the new battery are slightly different then the corners on the case. The new battery is technically older then my computer. So i don't know if the two are related.

My Advice

Make sure the battery you're buying isn't older then your computer.

My Problem

Daughter got too enthusiastic cleaning the keyboard, and can only assume the window cleaner must have carried dirt into the contacts. Columns of keys stopped working.

Battery had died of old age: no longer registered with the diagnostic subsystem.

My Fix

Followed the instructions and it all came together as described. Keyboard and battery working 100% again.

My Advice

Lay the screws and fixings out in the order in which you take them out (according to the directions). Makes it easier to locate everything in the reassembly.

My Problem

Just needed a new battery for my MacBook and decided to order one from iFixit. The order was made on the 27th of December 2011.

My Fix

Only two days later the package was delievered by FedEx at my adress in the north of Denmark. The battery was loaded and ready for immediate use.

My Advice

I know from your paperwork, that the battery was shipped the very same day I ordered. I'm also aware that jetplanes were invented over half a century ago, but still I'm impressed!

My Problem

My battery started bulging back in 2010. I hadn't realized that it was actually a fire hazard, since, well, nobody thought anything of it. Luckily, I found out that it could actually turn my apartment into a literal hellhole (as opposed to the figurative hellhole it currently serves as today), found iFixit and got that new battery. Now I can be safe from the Lithium overlords. For now...

My Fix

Could not have been easier. Take out - replace.

My Advice

Replace your battery ASAP if it looks like that fat guy from Monty Python's The Meaning of Life. It might actually just a-splode.

My Problem

My old MacBook battery was bulging. It was time to replace it.

My Fix

It went fine. No problems.

My Advice

The white tone, is a little darker than my MacBook. It's noticeable.

My Problem

Brokene battery

My Fix

smooth

My Advice

Go ahead if your not too critical about the looks. the colour is a litle of and the fit is not perfekt, but works and performs as an original battery

My Problem

My macbook pro wouldn´t charge the battery any longer, had tried to change the battery but, that wasn´t the problem. Vent to a mac store and they said that they had to change the left I/O board, and that this was a common fault, only trouble was that it would have cost me more than dobbel the price than ordrering the parts from iFixit... I bought the left I/O board and 1tb harddrive for my macbook pro, and still the price was ca 50% less than repairing it at the local mac store here in Norway.

My Fix

I followed the guides from iFixit, and changed the left I/O board and the harddrive at the same time, and it was PERFECT!!!

My Advice

Follow the guides and keep track of the screws...

My Problem

My old battery was losing power very quickly and was "puffing out" from its cover so I thought it was time to get a new one.

My Fix

Easy. I didn't even need to buy the $2.50 "coin" - just used my own US quarter :-)

My Advice

This was my second repair using iFixit.com. My recommendation would be to get a new battery before your old one dies, or your computer gets discontinued. My husband has a G4 PowerBook and new batteries are no longer in stock so it seems that getting one sooner rather than later is a good idea.

My Problem

My macbook had been suffering lately - more than 600 recharge cycles on the battery, less than an hour of runtime for basic browsing etc.

My Fix

Repair was super easy (just swapping out the battery). Purchased a "Stock A" battery that arrived in mint condition with only 4 recharge cycles logged on it, at a significant discount from buying a new battery from Apple. Battery health is now 100% as opposed to the 45% I had been clocking in.

My Advice

Check with iFixit for one of these OEM batteries in stock before going 3rd party or buying direct from Apple.

My Problem

The MacBook is almost four years old and needs to make it through the last year of college. The battery would not hold a charge; we ordered a replacement from you.

My Fix

No problems; battery charged up and all is well!

My Advice

Your site is good but needs to be a little bit more user friendly! We will shop again in the future for parts. One other suggestion; your email had a blank 'from' and you ended up in my spam bucket
