    The corner of my macbook to the left of the trackpad (where my left wrist rests while i'm typing) has become loose. I press down on the area and it clicks and has now begun to just creak every time I move my hand while typing. The top part of the casing is beginning to separate from the bottom half I believe. What can I do about this? I have applecare, does that cover it? What should I do?

    Thanks guys

    call apple, and take it to apple store, if its under warranty and no sign of accidental damage (you drop the notebook at that area), apple will probably replace the top casing, or anything that may cause the problem.

    good luck :)
