I bought my Macbook Pro 13 when they came out with the line in fall 2009.
I have a few issues I want to get checked out before my Applecare plan expires. I want to know if anyone has any information or experience with these problems (e.g. are they common problems on this model?) and if anyone knows if Apple will be cool with my Applecare plan and run some diagnostics and fix whatever problems I have fo free
So the biggest problem is the fan. I used to be able to hear it (although barely) if I wanted to when the computer got very hot (downloading, video streaming, etc). Now I never hear it and I suspect it just doesnt run, and the computer gets very hot (my stat widget says cpou runs at 190F plus, sometimes...). Any experience with this or recommended solutions? Will Applecare deal with this problem for me, and could the heat have done any other damage to my components?
Second issue - the sensitivity of the mouseclick on my trackpad is terrible. It often "unclicks" when Im trying to highlight text or drag and drop. Same questions - any experience, solutions, will applecare plan fix?
Final issue - the headphone port (which is also the mic jack, and it is analog/digital) is "loose" - I can put my headphones in and it works, but they dont "snap" in securely.
Thank you everyone for any help you can provide
