I was using a hot air desoldering station to remove this DC jack, and on the under side of the motherboard, while removing the jack, this happened.

Please tell me that I can replace the jack and not have to worry about this....
Im hoping, or if there is a way that I can fix it. The board just got so hot this fell off!!

Just put them back in place. Use lower heat than you normally do for the dc jack, then use tweezers to hold them in place while the solder remelts. It's fairly easy...
 
the bigger one you can just solder back on no problem, lining up the other ones may be a little difficult
 
Thanks for the tips and reassurance, the company sent me the wrong jack, so I am anxiously waiting on it to come in before do anything...
