These batteries generally last for around 300+ charge cycles and then you gotta get a new one. You csn go to System Profiler - Power and check the cycle count.

It has a cycle of 277. Still shy off 300+?

When I plug-in the power adapter, it would turn orange (indicating charging battery) for a few minutes, then to yellow (at this point, it stops charging).
I can still boot with only my power adapter as well as my battery.

Grh.. what's wrong with it?

in that case try resetting your iBook PMU and see if it helps.

instructions here: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=14449

if it still doesn't work then you should go get it checked and most likely be prepared to fork out for a new battery.

good luck buddy! smile.gif
