Q: I would just like to know how much it would cost to repair my Macbook, late 2009 for the screen as the hinges have cracked, the case body of the Macbook and a battery replacment. I am finding it impossible to find a price for each individual problem!

So I have already had my screen replaced once in the past because at the hinges, it had cracked on both sides. The replacment screen was supposed to be stronger but hasn't made a difference because like I said it has cracked again. Also at the side of my Macbook where it charges has also cracked so the top body of the macbook needs replacing. Finally I can tell that the battery isn't lasting as long as it should and says that it is full charged when really it isnt at 100%, and only about 98% for example. I have gone onto the options and it has told me that it needs replacing now. But for all of these problems I can't find anywhere online about the prices for these each individual problems! So if someone could please tell me approximatley how much they would cost I would be very grateful!

 

Thank you

MacBook (13-inch Late 2009), Mac OS X (10.7.5)

    If you head over to ifixit.com, you can check out their replacement guides for each of the items you feel needs replacing. The cost for the parts is listed there. It would be that cost + labor at an Apple store. I'm not sure if they would replace things that are cracked as that is cosmetic damage and doesn't affect how well (or poorly) the computer works. You would have to bring it to a store and ask.

    I agree with Lyssa. I have a 2010 macbook that has a large crack at one of the hinges. But it does not affect the operation of the macbook. There is a online store that deals in mac part and I believe repair also. It at gainsaver.com.
