    I have a 13" Macbook, its about 4 years old I think - came with 10.5 Leopard. It's got a few problems - the trackpad does not work very well - actually mainly the click button but also tapping to click only works intermittently. Anyone know where I can get this repaired? Is this an expensive fix, would it even be worth it?

    Hi, if you want to take your MacBook to an Apple specialist then Mactivate in Blanch is probably the best bet. Just give them an email with your query and they'll respond with a quote. They were usually reasonably quick in responding to my queries. :)

    This could be an easy fix, depending on the model, if its the unibody macbook
    take off the bottom lid and remove the battery to reveal the bottom of the track pad and a torc screw, simply tighten/loosen depending on the problem.

    have a look at this.

    otherwise mactivate/compu b could probably sort something for you!
