i think my macbook battery is half dead...

it charges fully, then when used without the adapter, it goes up to about 25-30% then the whole macbook shutsdown, without notice...total lost of power...

i remembered when it used to approach less than 20%, the batt bar on the top turns red right?

i ran a test with coconutbattery...and this is what i got



155 charge cycles is not too bad right?? and my capacity is still at 93%, which is not too bad considering it's age...

I'll be sending it one of the mac shops...been having a lot of hardware problems with my mac....now sekali gus kao tim the thing...

Is it because my macbook is the first batch?? I am one of the first few macbook owners in malaysia...pre booked it when it was announced, got it when it was just launched..

Hi, i quoted my previous post...

I have not send my MB to the service center yet (yes, I am procastinating)..

But I've been monitoring my batt status....these few days, i managed to use it until about 10%, then i went to charge it...does that mean my battery is ok?

Since it is ok these few days, if i send it to VR tech, will they not change a new batt for me? since i cant really prove that something is faulty..

P.S. I hate it when this happens..when i want it to go wrong, it doesn't....happens to me EVERY SINGLE TIME.

RAM prices are different among countries.....I am sure you were not conned, RM40 differences is not that huge....

The RAMS sold in macstores are apple certified RAMS, which are usually much more expensive...

let me know the outcome....

i have even more squeeks and gaps and not matching covers.....

if u could get it fixed(i doubt they'll give u a replacement), i might send for warranty as well.....

i am too busy to send it to warranty and i need my macbook....cant afford to have it with apple for 1 week...heheh

eeeerm...are u allowed to check before buying??

i am not too sure..hahah....mine came to me by courier......

hi guys,

I've been looking for a mini-DVI to VGA connector for my macbook for months now....i've tried many mac shops but all of them do not have stock...

anyone know where can i get it?

thanks!

u have windows installed using bootcamp??

all of your occurances happened to me when i have windows in my macbook.....

after removing it, everything was fine..

yeah....i sont know if it's windows or bootcamp problem..

what i know is, when i have bootcamp and windows in my macbook....all the things happens....

so i removed windows from my macbook and live with it....and i am happy.....hehe

haha....i never got my macbook working with all of my office printers (network printers and also printers connected to a pc on the network)

dunno y also....maybe i dunno how to setup......

i just copy the file to a windows machine, print from there
hahah...

i'd like to also.....but dunno what to check......everything seems to be fine....hahah.....

super mac os x noobs here...heheh.....print pun tak tau.....

just get the correct type of RAMs and it shoudl work...regardless of the brand...

I am using Kingston Value Ram on my macbook and it worked fine...

The original RAM for my macbook was Hynix...

there is a 2cm crack at my palm area near the IR and sleep LED....haihh....
really need to send it to apple.....

any idea if they'll replace the palm area?? or is this considered wear and tear??

i dont think you'll be able to use the macbook with 1 slot of RAM....IIRC, both ram slots have to be filled....

my suggestion is like the others, upgrade your RAM....but RAM is cheaper if you DIY with value rams....

so it's your choice...

it is not normal.....

57% is way too low....send it back to service...hehe.....
