Hey,

I have 13.3'' Macbook from 2007 (A1181 model). I wanted to remove the battery in order to update my RAM, but my battery is stuck into the laptop. I used a coin to turn the latch on the back but the battery doesn't pop up at all.

I went to Apple, but my AppleCare already expired and they asked me loads of money. Does anyone know how to do it, or have any tips to give?

Thanks,
F
 
Turn to unlock it, and the side closest to the unlock latch is the side that should come up. Just stick something narrow in that side to pry it out.
