Opening up an old Macbook

Joseph Warren -

My Problem

My Macbook unibody battery needed to be replaced, but I had no idea how to remove all of the screws on the old Macbook. I found ifixit and thought I'd give their tools a try.

My Fix

The tools from ifixit worked perfectly. Some of the screws were jammed so I had to work to loosen them. I was able to get all of the screws out including those tricky three-ponged screws.

My Advice

Not only did the screwdrivers work, but I didn't realize they'd be magnetic. This is very helpful because the screws are small and easy to lose. The screws stick right the the tip of the screwdriver.
