I have the same problem. Not sure about having the logo come up, but the clicker always comes back. Kind of annoying really.

well im relieved to hear that others are experiencing the same problem. i guess ill hold off on sending it back under warranty until i get closer to the expiration date.

i've had that too... its annoying i know. but i dont thing there is anything we can do about it... maybe a firmware update about sleeping would fix it, but i dont know if it is eve…

What size screwdriver are you using? I believe #00 worked for me. Yeah, the screws are on tight, but you should be able to do it without too much trouble.

I Don't know what size it is. It is just some screwdrivers I have that seemed to fit ok, not perfectly, but close enough (or so I thought). I'll go buy a #00 tomorrow to see if i…

I see you've got the cover off so the point is moot but I wanted to respond to the comment about being charged by the Apple store. I ran into the same issue with my powerbook (and…

When I added a 1gb module to my new 15" Powerbook last night, I noticed that the screws (that did take a little force to remove) looked like they had some Loc-tite on them - the th…

It's not that hard to forget which way to turn the screws. I've had the same thing happen to me. Just remember: Lefty->loosy, righty->tighty

Ok, so i know this sounds weird but just hear me out guys... First, make sure u have the EXACT correct size screwdriver as stated in your manual Second, (this is where it gets stra…
