Chosen Solution
I tried putting upward pressure on the screen and the screw still spins (this was the answer in another post on the topic Pentalobe screws just spinning!). I’ve tried using gravity as I unscrew it. I’ve tried pushing the screen toward the back. I’ve pried the side without the screw up. I tried finding something sticky to put on the driver, like putty, but to no avail. I’ve even, hold on to your shorts, put some superglue on the tip of the driver to pull it out. What next? Rodney
Take a spudger so that the screen is slightly propped up on one corner then try to unscrew it
Hi Rodney, What I usually do to get annoying screws removed is quite simple. I place a small magnet (Like a fridge magnet or hard drive magnet) on the screwdriver.
This trick works amazingly well! Give it a shot and let us know :) Best of luck
