How do I go about getting a new battery? (Macbook Pro 15 inch, Mid 2012)
MacBook Pro, OS X Mountain Lion (10.8.5)
Sorry I meant how do I go about getting a new battery if it is indeed dead. 😊
Hi x,
These batts have a micro-processor built in and they can get flaky. Your batt stats look fine. About how much actual run time are you getting from a full batt charge?
EDIT: Also, are you posting about a PowerBook or the MBP you have listed in your info? (If so, you accidentally posted in the PB forum instead of the MBP forum.)
I'm going to say about 5-6 hours.
Then it sounds like your batt is fine, and its micro-processor got a bit flaky. You may have to just get used to the way it now operates, at least that's what I'd do as opposed to buying a new batt.
You are running on reserve power error message?
