[QUOTE="Mikeo512, post: 1876943, member: 404931"] I've just watched two YouTube videos about replacing a battery in an MBP. But what a difference! The first video (I didn't note the model) was a more professional (US) video production. For this model of 15-inch MBP you have to disassemble half of the inside in order to get at the battery. The other MBP (again I didn't note the model) was English - a guy explaining the method in his workshop. Here the battery was in full view as soon at the back of the computer casing was removed. He used some adhesive remover and twine or perhaps dental floss to unstick the battery. I must say that I would not want to attempt the job on the first Mac. I suppose for the pros who are doing this kind of thing all the time, it's straightforward. I might be tempted to try if my MBP is the same as the second one but there's no way that I'd try the first. I'll look at the videos again and note the models. [/QUOTE]
