Figure out what model your mac is, you can do this through entering the serial number on the mac website. This keyboard is for A1278's

I have Mid 2012 model and the replacement keyboard works like the original one.If the keyboard is functioning fine, I don't recommend replacing it though. Since it is not an easy process.

There are two types of a1278 keyboard: 2009~2010 and 2011~2012, F3 F4 key's logo are different , but they are compatible.

it worked perfectly for my project. There are some differences between models and if you look at the model of the mac this keyboard says exact compatibility.

Im using it n a MacBook circa 2007. Not sure if it would fit yours. I'm not happy at all with the run time. I'm only getting about 3 hours. Did better with my old one.

No. You have to have a chip. Migrating the chip from the old key is a major pain.

I would try to get a 2012 key, and from what I understand the replacement key can not be used as a original.

Yes Carlos you can. So if you open your key as it opens halfway up you'll see a little push pin that you can push out and take the key off and replace it with the key that you arty have. Then on the bottom separate the two pieces and you can put the guts that little computer chip in and replace that so it can work if you have anymore questions contact me

As long as MacPro has a standard QWERTY keyboard, then you should be fine. There is no software to install, so you don't need to worry about the OS. I think the new ones are USB. I have two of these and one is pre-USB, so I have a pigtail (available at Radio Shack and ..rarely.. Best Buy) on the older one.

No but if you have your old key you can take it out and put it in the new one.

when I replaced mine, one of the keys was the screw holes/tabs along the top. If you have 2 or 3. might want to get to that point to take a look before you order.

For some reason the keyboard did not work for me. I would suggest taking the Mac to a Mac service centre.

You can replace just the keyboard, but it's not a simple task. You will basically have to take out every component in your laptop to get to the keyboard. I think the official Apple genius/repair stance is that you don't replace just the keyboard, you replace the entire top case. But it is possible to replace just the keyboard.

I have this product (IU think ) & the a key only works if I really bang it so I wnt to replce figuring im likely past warranty. Is this the right one? My model number is F5L151

I can't tell for sure if you can or cannot, but I had to ship mine to them to get it fixed. It took so long that I had to buy another keyboard. It's been working fine since I got it back. I'd say send it to them just so you are covered in case it never works again. I believe if you try fixing it, you may be stuck with a broken item that cannot be returned because you tempered with it. Just my $0.02 :)

I believe I have an updated 2012 MacBook Pro 13inch. I was able to remove my keyboard piece and put in a new one. If I could that, I imagine you can change the battery. I did not have to buy any addition pieces or tools. Good Luck, Hope this helped.

I am not sure, but I have a late 2008 Macbook. Pro and it worked great on mine. It is actually only used to remove the screws on the back of the computer. It is also important that you put the same screw back into the same place it came out of. Hope this helps.

Yes. It should be the replacement keyboard. Watch the YouTube video on how to replace the keyboard and you'll be fine.

You can always reprogram the key using a shareware and put sticker on the keys to re-label. You can make a AAAAAA keyboard if you wish.

It fit my 2009 MacBook, so I think so. But you could trace your keys and take that pattern to a store and compare it to a new Macbook. This cover also fits the new one. I find an embarrassing amount of crumbs on it, so I'm glad I bought it. It is not much money to risk.
