This chapter provides information and instructions for upgrading the hard disk drive and installing additional memory in your MacBook Pro. WARNING: Apple recommends that you have an Apple-certified technician install replacement drives and memory. Consult the service and support information that came with your computer for information about how to contact Apple for service.
Replacing the Hard Disk Drive You can upgrade the hard disk drive in your MacBook Pro. The hard disk drive is located next to the built-in battery when you open the back of your MacBook Pro. The replacement drive must be a 2.5-inch drive with a Serial ATA (SATA) connector. Important: Apple recommends that you back up the data on your hard disk drive before removing and replacing it. Apple is not responsible for any lost data. To replace the hard disk drive in your MacBook Pro: 1 Shut down your MacBook Pro.
Important: Because the screws are different lengths, note the screw lengths and locations so you can replace the screws correctly. Put them aside in a safe place. Long Short Important: When you remove the bottom case, you expose sensitive internal components, which can be affected by static electricity.
3 Before touching the hard drive assembly, discharge any static electricity from your body by touching a metal surface inside the computer.
4 Locate the bracket at the top of the drive. Use a Phillips screwdriver to loosen the two captive screws that hold the bracket in place. Put the bracket aside in a safe place. 5 Using the pull tab, gently tilt up the drive.
6 Hold the drive by its sides and gently pull the connector on the left side of the drive to disconnect it.

4 Problem, Meet Solution www.apple.
Occasionally, you might have problems while working with your MacBook Pro. Read on for troubleshooting tips to try when you have a problem. You can also find more troubleshooting information in Help Center and on the MacBook Pro Support website at www.apple.com/support/macbookpro. If you experience a problem working with your MacBook Pro, there’s usually a simple and quick solution. Think about the conditions that led up to the problem.
Problems That Prevent You from Using Your MacBook Pro If your MacBook Pro doesn’t respond or the pointer doesn’t move On rare occasions, an application might “freeze” on the screen. Mac OS X provides a way to quit a frozen application without restarting your computer. To force an application to quit: 1 Press Command (x)-Option-Esc or choose Apple () > Force Quit from the menu bar. The Force Quit Applications dialog appears with the application selected. 2 Click Force Quit.
If your MacBook Pro freezes during startup, or you see a flashing question mark, or the screen is dark and the sleep indicator light is glowing steadily (not in sleep) The flashing question mark usually means that the computer can’t find the system software on the hard disk or any disks attached to the computer. ÂÂ Wait a few seconds. If the computer doesn’t soon start up, shut it down by pressing and holding the power (®) button for about 8 to 10 seconds.
ÂÂ If the problem persists, close all open documents and quit all applications. Return the computer to its factory settings (while still preserving your files) by pressing the left Shift key, left Option (alt) key, left Control key, and the power (®) button simultaneously for five seconds until the computer restarts. ÂÂ If you recently installed additional memory, make sure that it is correctly installed and is compatible with your computer.
If an audio device plugged into the audio port isn’t working Unplug the audio device. Choose Apple () > System Preferences, and open Sound preferences. In the Input pane, specify whether you want the port to be used for Sound Input or Sound Output. Plug the audio device back in. Note: If you’re running Windows on your MacBook Pro, the port supports only audio output. If you press the battery button, and all battery indicator lights flash five times quickly Your battery needs to be replaced.
Use the Mac OS X Utilities application to: ÂÂ Restore your software and data from a Time Machine backup. ÂÂ Reinstall Mac OS X and Apple applications. ÂÂ Restore your computer to its factory settings by erasing its disk and reinstalling Mac OS X and your Apple applications. ÂÂ Repair your computer’s disk using Disk Utility. If your computer detects a problem, it opens the Mac OS X Utilities application automatically. You can also open it manually by restarting your computer.
To open the Mac OS X Utilities application: mm Restart your computer while holding down the Command (x) and R keys. The Mac OS X Utilities pane appears. Some utilities in the Mac OS X Utilities application require access to the Internet and the Mac App Store. You may need to make sure your computer is connected to the Internet by using your Ethernet or Wi-Fi network. To connect by using a Wi-Fi network: 1 Choose a network from the Wi-Fi status menu in the upper-right corner of the screen.
Restoring Information Using a Time Machine Backup If you previously created a Time Machine backup, use the Restore utility to restore everything on your computer to its previous state. Use your Time Machine backup to restore information only to the computer that was the source of the backup. If you want to transfer information to a new computer, use Migration Assistant (in the Utilities folder in Launchpad). 1 If your backup is on a Time Capsule, make sure you’re connected to an Ethernet or Wi-Fi network.
You can install Mac OS X without erasing the disk, which saves your existing files and settings, or you can erase the disk first, which erases all your data and leaves the computer ready for you to reinstall Mac OS X and Apple applications. After installing Mac OS X, you can go to the Mac App Store and re-download your Apple applications. Important: Apple recommends that you back up the data on the disk before restoring software. Apple is not responsible for any lost data.
After restoring Mac OS X and your Apple applications, you can selectively restore your other data and applications from a Time Machine backup. Using Apple Hardware Test If you suspect a problem with the MacBook Pro hardware, you can use the Apple Hardware Test application to help determine if there is a problem with one of the computer’s components, such as the memory or processor. To use Apple Hardware Test: 1 Disconnect all external devices from your computer except the power adapter.
Problems with Your Internet Connection Your MacBook Pro has the Network Setup Assistant application to help walk you through setting up an Internet connection. Open System Preferences and click Network. Click the “Assist me” button to open Network Setup Assistant. If you have trouble with your Internet connection, you can try the steps in this section for your type of connection, or you can use Network Diagnostics. To use Network Diagnostics: 1 Choose Apple () > System Preferences.
Important: Instructions that refer to modems do not apply to LAN users. LAN users might have hubs, switches, routers, or connection pods that DSL and cable modem users do not have. LAN users should contact their network administrator rather than an ISP. PPPoE Connections If you are unable to connect to your Internet service provider using PPPoE (Point to Point Protocol over Ethernet), make sure you have entered the correct information in Network preferences.
Network Connections Make sure the Ethernet cable is plugged into your MacBook Pro and into the network. Check the cables and power supplies to your Ethernet hubs and routers. If you have two or more computers attempting to share an Internet connection, be sure that your network is set up properly. You need to know whether your ISP provides only one IP address or multiple IP addresses, one for each computer.
ÂÂ Make sure your MacBook Pro is within range of the other computer or the network’s access point. Nearby electronic devices or metal structures can interfere with wireless communication and reduce this range. Repositioning or rotating the computer might improve reception. ÂÂ Check the Wi-Fi (Z) status icon in the menu bar. Up to four bars appear, indicating signal strength. If you don’t see the bars, try changing your location.

AC plug MagSafe connector MagSafe Power Adapter ÂÂ If you’re using the AC power cord, place the power adapter on a desk, table, or on the floor in a well-ventilated location.
Disconnect the power adapter and disconnect any other cables if any of the following conditions exists: ÂÂ You want to add memory or upgrade the hard disk drive. ÂÂ You want to clean the case (use only the recommended procedure described on page 74). ÂÂ The power cord or plug becomes frayed or otherwise damaged. ÂÂ Your MacBook Pro or power adapter is exposed to rain, excessive moisture, or liquid spilled into the case.
Hearing damage Permanent hearing loss may occur if earbuds or headphones are used at high volume. You can adapt over time to a higher volume of sound that may sound normal but can be damaging to your hearing. If you experience ringing in your ears or muffled speech, stop listening and have your hearing checked. The louder the volume, the less time is required before your hearing could be affected.
Important Handling Information NOTICE: Failure to follow these handling instructions could result in damage to your MacBook Pro or other property.
Using the optical drive The SuperDrive in your MacBook Pro supports standard 12 cm (4.7 inch) discs. Irregularly shaped discs or discs smaller than 12 cm (4.7 inches) are not supported and can become lodged in the drive. Handling glass parts Your MacBook Pro contains glass components, including the display and trackpad. If they are damaged, don’t use your MacBook Pro until it has been repaired by an Apple Authorized Service Provider.
Understanding Ergonomics Here are some tips for setting up a healthy work environment. Keyboard and Trackpad When you use the keyboard and trackpad, your shoulders should be relaxed. Your upper arm and forearm should form an angle that is slightly greater than a right angle, with your wrist and hand in roughly a straight line.
Use a light touch when typing or using the trackpad and keep your hands and fingers relaxed. Avoid rolling your thumbs under your palms. This Not this Change hand positions often to avoid fatigue. Some computer users might develop discomfort in their hands, wrists, or arms after intensive work without breaks. If you begin to develop chronic pain or discomfort in your hands, wrists, or arms, consult a qualified health specialist.
You might have to raise your chair so that your forearms and hands are at the proper angle to the keyboard. If this makes it impossible to rest your feet flat on the floor, you can use a footrest with adjustable height and tilt to make up for any gap between the floor and your feet. Or you can lower the desktop to eliminate the need for a footrest. Another option is to use a desk with a keyboard tray that’s lower than the regular work surface.
