Macbook pro 2010 fan makes very loud noise
Id suggest that you make sure you don't have debris clogging the vent ports. Apple's vents are between the display and the lower case. They're kinda hard to see so put you monitor down as flat as it will go like 180 degrees away from the bottom case and turn it around. If its dirty you cab try to clean it with compressed air or canned air, but its best to open it up and blow it out of the machine not in. Do a youtube search if you're not aware how to take it apart, and you probably should have to take off more than the bottom cover. Good Luck!
Removing DVD from slot in MacBook Pro
If youre sly you can get away with using a paper clip to push on an eject mechanism on the side towards the back. If that doesn't work you may have to disassemble. Depending on which year model you have you might need a Torx precision driver (one can be bought at home depot for <$10) and a precision phillips head screwdriver. If you're unsure on how to open it up, do a youtube search, theres plenty of videos on how to do it right.?
Mac stuck on mute
with the headphone plug inserted/removed will eventually clear the lockup.
If one were to carefully measure all headphone plugs they would find that many don't meet the standards for length.

Macbook screen is zoomed or magnified too much. How do i reset it?
Accessibility Zoom?
If everything is messed up and not just one app, you may have managed to switch on accessibility features and triggered the zoom. Does the screen scroll around as you move the cursor?
As all of the controls are customisable, some things may not work but try <option><command><minus> to zoom out.
Go to System Preferences and select Accessibility. Choose Zoom on the left and uncheck 'Use keyboard shortcuts to zoom' and 'use scroll gesture...'.
Otherwise, some of the other suggestions should help.
Macbook pro hinge crack
If the laptop still works you were lucky. The screen will die eventually when you open the lid too far again.
Take it to Apple and get it fixed.
