Ermm... "not happy" doesn't mean angry. Instead I'm sad that I didn't get the ACPP in the first place.
Anyway, I'm getting the ACPP for my 17"MBP now.

oh shii... i got the same problem with keyboard an trackpad hang as well! but i know where the problem lies and it is NOT THE LOGIC BOARD.

it is actually the connector for the keyboard and mouse to the logic board just right above (or below if you turn your mbp up side down) the battery which is loose. i used a foam padding and put it on top of the connector so that the connector wont come loose it really helps

I'm not really sure what's wrong but it was the apple service center technician told me it's the logic board problem.
Hope they are right for my case.

have you sent yours to repair? if not you might want to try to try the method that i used



try placing a small padding or foam on the marked red spot.

it seems that the connector that connects the keyboard and trackpad to the logic board is loose due to the heat. when i took out my battery i can feel the cable is abit bulged out and when i used a padding and push it in between the battery and the cable so that the cable will not be too loose it solved the problem and i have no more unresponsive keyboard and trackpad.

Hey, thank you for the solution/picture. Already sent mine to apple for repair. They'll replace the logic board, if the problem persist then I'll try your solution.

my macbook pro start giving me problem as well the superdrive refused to read a blank CD R or DVD R when i wanted to burn something but when i put in commercial dvd like os x leopard dvd it works fine

what brand are those? sometimes it depends on the disc manufacturers also.

imation, mitsubishi, memorex. the cd r and dvd r burns well the last time i use it. no problem at all until recently. must be getting old and dusty inside since i havent been using the superdrive for more than half a year

Mine late 2008, and it's a minute lag. And it even random freezes while i am on HIGHER PERFORMANCE (9600 graphic card).

I just did a fresh install and will be monitoring this closely. If it random freezes again I will be updating AppleCare. From what they told me, the screen capture lag happens to all MBP with dual graphic card, however i guess yours 2 or 3 seconds is much better than mine.

Can u PM me your serial number? I would like to pass that to AppleCare for their investigation.

lastnight when using my macbook, my finger feels like got some static electricity on the surface... my mbp is full aluminium model...

when i change to other socket it is ok. it only happen in my rooms socket.

any ideal how to solve this? cuz keep on feeling like been 'shock'....

That happens when i touch my XBOX360's hard drive too. So far, my one day old macbook pro doesnt give me problems as of yet

From my experience, it Ur room or Ur house "Wayar Bumi" aka Green Cable not connected correctly to earth...

Last time got this shock problem, call the TNB, they only responsible beyond the meter. after the meter, it owner responsible.
so i call outside tech to check, why my pc feel "SHOCK", then found out, The Green Cable not touching or bury correctly in the ground.

Solution, put the green cable correctly and bury it.. look at outside ur house the red/"simen" box...

Hope this hint will help u guys..

Cheers..

hmmm nice tips.

will check it out.

thx a lot.

Okay, besides that. Anything else is gonna update/upgrade besides OS?

So far my late 2008 macbook pro still serving me well without any problem also.
Still got 6 months to buy the ACPP...

Now after reading this thread it really affect my judgment on Apple MBP product. Plan to get a 13.3" myself. But I just might have to go to PC Fair and get a clear look at it. machine at MidValley Megamall doesn't display the 13" model..

good one!
no wonder i never use extend cable, just the plastic head, i also never got any static shock
i know my house got grounding point all the way down

ACCP = 1 year 3 years 5 years is it? i got 1 unit macbook white. bought almost 2 years back. can continue the warranty? i dont mind add some cash

you have to purchase the ACPP while your unit is still under the 1 year warranty.. since you mentioned you purchased your macbook two years back, so unfortunately it is too late..

the ACPP extends your warranty for another 2 years, meaning you get 3 years in total..

act for ACPP is good to invest for peace of mind if anything happen your Mac...

Any other major issue regarding the latest 13.3" MBP?
Was planning to purchase 1 very soon....
