It's happening again...

I have three of those cracks, two on the top and one exactly where yours is, I just superglued it and it's fine now.

No, that's a white one.

Is it time for you to get a replacement or you're not entitled yet?
I've had many iPhones cracking/other issues, and I've been offered a full refund after 7 months of use.. trying to get it exchanged again, kinda feel like I'll give up and accept any flaw now..

I've had mine for 2 years? maybe 3 so they won't do anything for me but good luck M3G4.

It's a design flaw so they should do something. If they don't, I'm going to kick up one hell of a fuss. My dell laptop has been battered around and nothings' fallen off yet!

Do you have AppleCare? If so, then you're fine. If not, you are probably out of luck but you it is worth a try anyway. You may get a sympathetic Genius who is willing to make an exception. It's happened for me with my old WhiteBook- I got a replacement battery well out of warranty. Good Luck.

I never had this happen on any white one I had.

Even if you don't have AppleCare I'm almost positive they will replace it. If you get a Genius that says they won't, put up a huge fuss. That's B.S. That is a design flaw and should be covered with or without AppleCare. But like I said, I think you'll be fine either way.

On the bright side, at least the whole wrist rest / keyboard / trackpad area will look like new after they replace it! They've had to replace mine twice so far due to the cracking, and while it's such a pain leaving it at the Apple Store, getting it back in the like-new condition is pretty nice.

They replaced mine the second time out of warranty. I think the plastic is better now.

What am I supposed to be looking for here. I've been looking at the picture quiet a bit and still cannot find what's wrong here haha someone help me out i feel slow

If that's the case, I got a whole bunch of "like new" crap to sell you.

If you look at the picture, you should see 2 lines. The outter line represents the case, the inner (faint) line is the nasty crack in the case.

oh wow I had no clue those were cracks. I thought that was part of the casing. Sorry I havent had a white macbook in a year or so. I forgot what the edges looked like. welp, send to apple or bring to apple and get a diff one......i suppose?

Just take it in. I read in many places that Apple will fix them out of warranty.
