    I used this guide plus the Thermal Paste guide to resolve my MacBook RRS (Random Restart Syndrome) issue. My MacBook would randomly restart after the fan kicked into high speed. When I removed the heatsink I discovered an an irregular patch completely free of thermal compound of about 15-20% of the area on one of the processors. I removed and re-applied the thermal paste. I ran a memory test utility overnight that previously caused a restart after a couple of hours, and the probelm seems to be solved. TIme will tell.

    This guide was seriously helpful, so thanks for putting this together. I found a thick ribbon of dust/muck whatever between the fan outlet and the exhaust port that was almost as dense as felt. My fan must have been fighting like crazy trying to pass air through that blockage, which explains the high temps and excessive fan noise. Wish I'd done this sooner...

    Thanks again!

    Just R&R'ed the fan in my black MacBook Core 2 Duo tonight. Took me 30 minutes tops and I was taking my time. These instructions are SPOT ON! Great job ifixit.com! Two thumbs up!

    Follow the instructions exactly as you see and have a piece of paper taped to the table next to you that you can outline all the screws you took out so you know where they go back in. I expected this to be a LOT harder, but it was one of the simplest repairs I've ever done to ANY computer!

    Piece of cake--or should I say gum. If you don't have a magnetized screwdriver, load up a stick of gum and chomp on it until it's needed then use a bit to retain screw on the driver. And if you should tear the black tape, or if the silver tape won't stick any more, just bubblegum it together. The instructions were clear and correct, which made for a very simple repair.

    Somehow the plastic disc with the slot for a coin got dislodged from the case, and I can't seem to get it open now. Any tips/links on how to open this without the aid of the plastic disc?

    i broke my disc off as well. I used two toothpicks to rotate the thing. hi tech.

    My computer will not charge when plugged in. It will stay on as ling as the plug is in the wall however if the power source gets disconnected it will shut down immediately. I removed the battery and put it back in that did not help. It worked and charged fine 2 days ago. I have a backpack with a laptop storage area. I went to hang the backpack up and it fell and ever since the battery is not functioning. Is there some fix I can try or is my only solution to replace it? I would have thought that dropping it would affect more than the battery?

    Beth Tomasek - Réponse

    Better leave the back pack where it cannot fall. Hindsight is so much better than foresight . I learned the hard way too!

    Many of the tiny screws in this project were quite sticky. I found some blue Loctite residue that must have been when the Apple repair shop worked on the laptop years ago. I have found that it is important to hold the correct driver firmly down in the screw and then just tweak the driver in short bursts to loosen it before unscrewing it with a smooth turn.

    Patrick Langvardt - Réponse

    Be really careful while doing this to not use too much force while doing this step, because the plastic disc can break off and it can be a cosmetic issue along with functionality issue. This happened to me first hand so please take my word for it…

    Probably worth mentioning at this stage that the caddy you propose to use should not have lugs on the front corners, like those used in unibody 1278 and onwards.

    Hehe, still my mac os running! After, already bit more than 10 years of use!

    I put new heat paste now for the second time. Maybe this helped for staying young so long.

    • Retirez la batterie de l'ordinateur en la soulevant.

    I just replaced the battery as indicated (with a iFixit part), but the computer says there is no battery connected, even after letting the power plug in for more than one hour.

    Jean Wallemacq - Réponse

    I think I found the way to have the new battery to charge!!!!!

    See: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jRYIMDQx....

    Essentially, you have to follow a very precise order: 1/shut down the computer, 2/take off the magsafe connector, 3/remove the old battery, 4/put back the magsafe connector, 5/put the new battery, 6/power on, each time leaving a few seconds in between.

    • Dévissez les trois vis Phillips espacées régulièrement sur la paroi arrière du compartiment de la batterie.

    • Les vis sont intégrées au capot métallique de la mémoire, vous ne pouvez donc pas les perdre.

    please pay attention that screws are native to metal pieces otherwise you are going to be a stupid like me trying to unscrew unsuccessfully until I reread the guide

    manochu - Réponse

    Lay the screws out in a ”timeline” like a circle, Then when you reassemble just start from the end of the “timeline”

    decristoforo - Réponse

    The screws have to unscrewing positions, first they unscrew from the whole body BUT if you move the lid without entirely removing the screws, they will remain attached to the lid. This I find much more recomendable!

    Wytchkraft - Réponse

    I found when putting this back in that I had to use a spudger to work the mesh/foam into the slot where the memory cards are so the bracket would lay flat again when screwed back in.

    • Faites pivoter le capot de la mémoire en forme de L de manière à dégager l'ouverture du compartiment de la batterie, soulevez-le et sortez-le de l'ordinateur.

    That looks so easy!

    • Saisissez la languette en plastique blanc fixée au disque dur et tirez-la vers la droite pour retirer le disque dur de l'ordinateur.

    • Lorsque vous replacez le disque dur dans son compartiment, veillez à ce que l'étiquette soit tournée vers le bas.

    When I tried, I wasn't sure which "label" should be facing down and I've chosen the wrong side — so the screws would almost fit, they were just a little wrong. When I tried to fit back the hard drive, it wouldn't slip till the end. So I took it out and tried the other side and it worked just fine.

    I can’t recall but looks like years ago I screwed the screw trying to replace the hard drive with another one then I gave up, now I want again to replace the HDD but literally can get that screws out. Thanks

    When sliding in the new hard drive, I had one of the T8 Torx screw to fold the rubber guide glued on the sides of the hard drive slot (but why did they used rubber guides????).

    So the SATA connector was no more reachable.

    Had to open the whole case.

    Heep it in mind and close the screws very well

    Ezio Ricca - Réponse

    This happened to me too, although it was caused by the harddrive tray catching on the rubber strip rather than a loose screw. Had to take top off of laptop and need double-sided tape to re-attach the rubber strips.

This upgrade is so easy. Just do it. Even your dad could do this.

After the upgrade to a 320 GB 7200 rpm, the MacBook (1.83 GHz Intel Core Duo A1181, with 2 GB of ram) works like a new computer. However, the fan comes on so easy - and stays on forever. Is this due to the increased speed of the hard drive? Is there a way to turn down the hard drive speed when used on AC power?

suselfunk - Réponse

The rubber guide came off on mine too. The mistake is that the screws without the flanges go on the outside edge of the Mac and the flange ones towards the inside. If you do it backwards it will pull the rubber guide off and then an otherwise effortless install will take a while longer to complete.

it's really easy to do this - there's no need to pay someone else! thanks for this awesome tutorial.

Very simple and easy! The biggest challenge was the walk to Radio Shack in cold weather to go get a !#!@ torx! The OSX installation guide was also a big help.

Bought a Crucial M4 CT128M4SSD2 (128 GB SSD), removal was quick and easy. This was my wife's mac, I personally do not own Apple products. My challenge was that I had to erase the drive (which in the process re-formats the ssd) which got the install up and running.

If I had known about ifixit earlier I would not have purchased my new Mac. This was so easy. Now I have two computers.

The only thing I become stuck on was the recognition of the HD for uploading from a CD. Need to partion new HD. After that no trouble.

Thanks ifixit.

feade - Réponse

Worked well for me. Cloned the old drive to the new while the old was still in the computer, swapped drives, booted up, everything worked. Even licensed software like Adobe CS didn't throw any wobblies. Also disk operations (such as bootup and opening applications) now much faster.

C T - Réponse

Went perfect, I bought the complete kit this time and had all the right tools. The installation was done before I knew it, even surprised the wife. I just wish the back-up installation and OS 10.9.2 had gone that easy, but that's another story. All is up and running and the wife is happy as a clam.

Anyone have any issues installing a Samsung 250GB 850 EVO SSD in A1185 (early 2009) MacBook?

I’ve read up a bit on the process and understand that one method is to clone your home HDD to the SSD using Disk Utility and a USB to SATA cable (unfortunately no longer provided with the Evo as it used to be). Additionally I’ve read that booting in recovery mode will enable you to do this.

Anything else to note here? Common hick-ups with the Samsung, or issues upon installation? Any advice much appreciated thanks everyone!

I just installed a 500 GB Samsung 850EVO SSD in a 2008 Macbook4,1. I had to reformat the SSD for Mac, so I put it in an Inateck enclosure for a 2.5” hard drives — worked great. Gave the MacBook a whole new lease on life, and if it dies, I will put the SSD in another used computer. :-)

i was given the Black edition 2.4GHz Intel Core 2 Duo version. I swapped out the old 80GB 5400rpm SATA and put in a 120GB SSD. Was very easy, even though its only using a SATA 1.5, it's still faster than any platter drive. Also using an OWC kit, I took the RAM to 6GB using a 2GB & 4GB DDR2 upgrade kit. Better than the original 2GB this old thing came with. My only issue is being stuck with Mac OS 10.7.5 Lion. But It's amazing how much life one can get out of a 14yr old computer!
