The edge of my Macbook Pro Retina is so sharp that my palm hurts. Any solutions? Apple says not to apply a pad.
MacBook Pro (Retina, Mid 2012), OS X Mountain Lion (10.8.5)
put a palm rest in front of the Mac
I use this one everyday

Yoou could try placing the computer on a stand so it sits at an angle.
But before paying for a stand you can try an experiment.
Place the back edge of the computer on a book laid flat on your desk, so the computer itself is at an angle sloping down towards you. Next try two books, for a steeper angle. If you can find a comfortable arrangement by tilting the computer, a stand might be the best solution.
I use it on my lap 95% of the time, so I don't think either of these solutions is practical. I have a big bulky lap pad, but I don't want to carry that around. I bought this super thin computer, in part, to have it be easy to transport.
Does anyone know if there is some kind of molded gel or skin that I could put around the edge while I'm using it, and take off to close it?
I use mine on my lap ALL THE TIME.
Youd still need a platform, since its a notebook, NOT a laptop...........also you dont want to block the fan vents in the back

Why not a fingerles glove for your hands?
I actually thought of going Michael Jackson.
Why not? Worked for him.
If anybody else has this issue, I started using a mouse pad. It is thin and lights, so it's portable. The bottom is grippy, so it stays in place pretty well on the corner of my Macbook. It's anoying that I have to use anything at all. I hope Mace rounds out that edge in future models. But for now, this is working.
I have elago L3 stand still I face same issue. I started getting pain and I concern that it will increase as time goes. I had used macbook pro late 2009 for many years and never face such issue and I buy macbook pro ratina and from that day it stated paining in palm
Sharp edge hurts hand
