Hello guys.
Since yesterday night, my MacBook Pro has been acting a bit weird. I was watching a movie and randomly, the trackpad started making a weird noise (has if clicking was activated, even though it isn't). So I went in the settings to toggle on/off the clicking of the magic trackpad but it didn't change anything. Right now, the sound of my trackpad is almost the same when it's on or off. I may be a little detail but when I'm in a silent room, it really obsesses me.

My MacBook is still under warranty as I bought it refurbished from Apple on May 1st last year (so only a couples of days left). I ran a Apple Diagnostic by holding the "D" key when starting up but everything seems fine there.

Has this happen to anyone ? Could it be a software problem as this MacBook is using a Magic trackpad ? I don't want to stay with that problem much longer because my warranty will finish soon so it could brings new problems later when it's off warranty.

Make an appointment at the closest Apple Genius Bar. They can run hardware diagnostics on it for no charge. See what they say and go from there.

Also, start looking online for discounted AppleCare + for your MBP, well worth the investment.

No, not true. Authorized Apple resellers also sell Apple Care. The best price we have found is from B&H Photo in New York City.

+1 for B&H Photo. I've purchased 2 AppleCare items from them at good discounted prices.
