    Could be a matter of a reset of System Management Controller, be sure it really needs it though by trying the other things suggested (as applicable to the portable computer) before doing so.

    If it still acts up after trying what they suggest, in the order as suggested, you should contact Apple Support or the local Apple Store to set an appointment with a Genius or product specialist, and take the unit in.

     

    Good luck & happy computing!
