Q: MacBook Pro Dead? (dies after a few min)
Hi.
Specs: Macbook Pro Retina 15", 256 SSD, 16 GB RAM, ... Bought 2012.
A week ago my macbook just died at about 70% battery. I coudnt get it to work with or without cable.
1) I let it be for 30 hours to drain the battery completely and try again with the charger plugged in. It started - to failsafe mode - very slow - and then died after a few minutes unable to start again.
2) I tried the day after (again after drained the battery). I got to login screen, and it got stuck for a minute, and then died.
3) Drained battery again, after 12 hours. I was able to start, and login, view the desktop, tried to open Finder and then it died..
Anyone recognize this problem? Is it the battery? Is it something else?
Thanks in advance!
