My macbook pro battery is not holding a charge...what do I do?
So, suddenly, literally the last two days, my Macbook will not hold a charge. Within about an hour or two of use, the battery drops 30%. Previously, I could use it for several days before the charge dropped; it would take a week to go from 100% to critical and it was on all the time. The computer is about a year and a half old (so to speak). The closest Apple Store is almost 300 miles away.
Is there something I can do? Install/uninstall items?
Thanks for any and all help.
MacBook Pro (13-inch Mid 2010), Mac OS X (10.6.8)
