Hello! I was recently opening up my Macbook Pro for the first time, and all was well, but when I went to screw everything back in, the back three screws (the long ones) WILL NOT GO IN! All they do is just screw in a tiny bit then get insainly difficult to screw in, and I don’t want to strip them, so I pull them out. Please help ASAP!
It really sounds like you are talking about the bottom cover. With the machine inverted and the hinge facing away from you, the long screws go into the three holes at the top of the machine to the right. The far left hand screw in the back is a standard one. The short screws sound like you have them in the long screw holes. Gently lift the bottom plate up with your fingernails, as they really aren’t attached and they should come out with the cover. Next time follow the guide.

Are the screw holes I highlighted in blue obstructed in any way?
