Opening up the MacBook Pro...
The first step to opening the MacBook Pro
as with most Apple laptops is flipping it over and
removing the battery. It is always wise to re-
move the battery during any repair. It is best to
remove any possible electricity that could dam-
age the components inside. If you have an anti-
static wristband, that will reduce your chances
of accidentally damaging your MacBook Pro.
To remove the battery, you should notice
two switches near the middle of the bottom
case. You will need to slide both of these
switches towards the back of the machine. You
should notice a red colored bottom underneath
if they are being slid the correct way. Once they
are both pushed back, the battery should pop
out. Just grab the battery and remove it from
the bay. Place it aside and be careful not to
scratch the casing on it.
After removing the battery, you should be
able to see the bottom side of the track-pad as
well as reveal five screws. Three of the screws
marked in the middle in the picture above are for
the memory bay cover. These screws are going
to have large polished heads and be very short.
These are the only three like this you will see on
the MacBook Pro so make sure you keep track
of them and remember where they go. Remov-
ing the battery should also reveal two screws on
the inside wall of the battery bay on the same
side as the latch of the unit. These two screws
help hold the top case in place. There are also
the four long polished phillips head screws lining
the back of the bottom case marked above.
Remove all of these.
Once removed, you can proceed to take off
the memory bay cover. It will slide out towards
the front of the machine and then you can lift it
out.
