Macbook pro mid 2010 13.3 inch - battery charging

I have a Macbook Pro mid 2010, 13.3 inches.
The battery stopped charging, I see the problem was the dc MagSafe. Replaced it, now only connects the laptop (I've tried with another battery and the problem persists, my battery works and usually carries another laptop) and work with it plugged in but not charging the battery.
What should be the problem? Agurado suggestions ... I've tried the SMC, I tried to put another battery, etc etc, and the problem persists.
I wish I could help.

Open System Profiler>Power and post this from your MBP:
(make certain that your charger is connected?
Also run an Apple Hardware Test:

Note that an error free AHT is not definitive.
Ciao.

  • MacBook Pro Mid 2010 Battery Capacity

    I've read a few threads about this, mostly about battery capacity rapidly dropping after an install of ML. I installed ML when it first came out, and just noticed the drastic decrease in battery life about 3 weeks ago. My capacity could have potentially been dropping since I installed ML (and I just now noticed it), or it may have just started a couple weeks ago when I noticed. I'm not sure.
    Either way, my MacBook Pro (Mid 2010) now has a battery life of less than an hour, even with extremely light processor load. I contacted Apple about this, and the tech said that the battery was rated for 1000 cycles. I'm currently at 220, and my battery capacity is a pathetic 30%. He said that since I wasn't under warranty, there was nothing they could do besides replace the battery - which I really want to avoid since I'm a broke college student.
    Is there anything I can do here? I understand that I'm not under warranty anymore, and this wouldn't be a problem if my battery was degrading normally. However, getting 1/5th of the recommended battery life is pretty sad. I've read that doing a clean install of Mountain Lion/Lion might help. Is there a way I can do this without having to back up all my files? I don't have an external hard drive or anything.
    It seems this is a common topic in these forums. Any help or links to solutions would be great. If this is answered in a similar topic, I'll gladly delete.

  • Buy new battery for MacBook Pro Mid 2010, and in-store installation?

    I need to buy a new battery for my MacBook Pro Mid 2010. I was wondering if there was an Apple store where I can buy a new one and have it installed there. i tried Best Buy and they weren't really any help and suggested to go to an Apple store. However, I don't know if I could have them install right there.

    its best to make an appointment at your local Apple store.  If they are busy and you walk in without an appointment, they will turn you away.

  • Macbook Pro Mid 2010 (Model 6.2) restarts like cray cray

    Can't believe this is happening...
    Macbook Pro Mid 2010 Model - Intel i5 2.4GHz - RAM 8GB - GPU NVIDIA GeForce GT 330M
    So I've seen quite a lot of threads discussing the 'GPU Panic' issue since I first encountered it a few weeks ago. The problem had never occurred on my MBP prior to that. However, the situation is now so bad that I wouldn't be able to open the Mac OS and make a copy of the panic report before it automatically reboots. Fortunately I have Windows 8 installed on the machine so I am still able to post for help on here.
    A few questions / personal thoughts on the issue:
    I bought this MBP back in June 2010 in China... So I won't be eligible for a free repair by any means right? It's been almost fours years since the purchase - significantly longer than three years restricted by Apple. I've seen another user who posted how they successfully defended their consumer rights by bringing some printouts of consumer laws and regulations. Lots of respect for that... But surely that only applies to goods purchased in the UK right? I'm so screwed... If a repair costs a few hundred quid then there is no point doing it, is there? I guess I can live with Windows for one or two years before the machine wears out and then get a new one. That being said, I still wonder if anyone in similar situation has managed to get free repair (GPU / logic board replacement or whatever it is). If so, mind sharing your story?
    Is it nearly impossible to make a Genius Bar reservation nowadays or is it just me? My plan was to bring my MBP and talk to a genius and see where it goes. But both Covent Garden and Regent Street seem fully booked until a distant future. The reservation page does not show any available time slots, it simply says 'There are no available appointments at this store'. I mean I don't really mind if it is in a few days, a week, a month or even a year, just give me something. Telling people 'no availabe appointments at this store' is not very helpful is it? Since I have never had a Genius reservation (never had any issue using my MBP until this one - the good old days are gone) before, I'm curious what would happen if I just walk in with my MBP. Would they ask me to make a reservation or would they serve me right away?
    Since I have never encountered the GPU panic issue (or any issue really) before I upgraded to Mavericks 10.9.2. I had never had any similar problems running Windows (Previously Vista, 7 and now 8) on my MBP either. I am speculating maybe the GPU Panic issue is more of a software bug. I am not ruling out the possibility of the GPUs being defective, but considering that fact everything was perfectly fine before the arrival of the evil Mavericks (for me, the upgrade to Mvericks 10.9.2), maybe the specific problem is down to Mavericks? I think this could be good news because Apple could quickly fix it for everyone as long as they know about the issue. Well... I don't think our chances of getting it sorted quickly are good, especially not when the new iPhone/iOS, which generates 10X more profits than Macs, is at the most critical stage of development. What do you guys think?
    Oh it is just so frustrating. Using Windows on a Mac is definitely a nightmare - miserable 2 hour battery life and noisy non-stop fan spinning. Someone please help....................
    TH

    In the Replacement Program Support Article, it states:
    Apple will service affected 15-inch MacBook Pro computers free of charge until three years from date of purchase. This worldwide Apple program does not extend the standard warranty coverage of the affected MacBook Pro.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4088
    According to these terms, you are outside the eligibility window. However, I still second andyBall_uk's sentiments.
    Make a Genius Bar Reservation. Print out a copy of the kernel panic report and the Support Article. If the 'Genius' refuses servicing without cost, ask for the store manager. It is ultimately at the manager's discretion.
    Additionally, if this doesn't work out, you can look into Apple's flat fee repair program:
    Do You Know About Apple's Flat Rate Repair Pricing?
    Best of luck.

  • MacBook Pro Mid-2010 Intermittent Shut-Down and Fuzzy Screen

    Hi,
    My MacBook Pro Mid-2010 has been having some problems recently. Hope someone will be able to help me with this. Below are the symptoms that has been showing.
    Symptoms:
    1. Intermittent Shutdown
    2. Screen going fuzzy (when I give it a slight tap it will be fine but everything just hangs)
    3. 3 beep sound
    4. Can't start up (The sleep light will just stay on but nothing appears. I have to force shutdown and try starting it again.)
    I have recently done a clean install of Yosemite but the problem is still occuring.
    I also took it down to Singapore Apple Service Centre to try to get the problem fixed. But the initial tests shows that all the components in the Mac is working fine. I will need to pay for a full test as my Mac is out of warranty hence I did not send it in.
    Below is a copy of the recent log after it shut down by itself.
    Appreciate if someone can help me with this!
    Thank you!
    Regards,
    Kai Yuan

    I just had the same problem! Just installed Mavericks a couple of days ago but everything was running perfectly till just a couple of minutes ago watching netflix and working on Dreamweaver my macbook just shutdown. I had to Turn it back on and in the first try it shutdown immediatelly again, then i tried for second time and as soon as i got back into my account a bunch of programs start sending erros as my clock was set to a different date. My battery seems to be fine, i even check the report in the system preferences, it had 50% of battery and was plugged in so i am guessing that is not the problem.
    Here the report:
    Charge Information:
      Charge Remaining (mAh):          3356
      Fully Charged:          No
      Charging:          Yes
      Full Charge Capacity (mAh):          6626
      Health Information:

      Condition:          Normal
    I had to have my motherboard replaced last year as my macbook its a 15 inch Mid 2010 so i took it to Mac Store.. they didnt charge me for anything as it is a problem that Apple acknowledge the problem was in their side. I am just hoping i dont have to deal with this again.

  • MacBook Pro Mid 2010 Running Slow

    My Macbook Pro Mid 2010 is running slow.  Here are the details from EtreCheck.  The biggest issue I see is Carbonite but I am not sure if this is the real problem or not.  I would appreciate anyone's help to get this computer running faster.
    Also, planning to upgrade to OS X Yosemite.  But I would like to resolve the speed issue first.  Does anyone have an opinion on whether Yosemite would be OK with this configuration. 
    Thank you.

    Please describe the problem in as much relevant detail as possible. The "etrecheck" fad hasn't made that step any less necessary. The usual results of posting etrecheck output on this site without a full description of the problem are very poor. The better your description, the better the chance of a solution.
    For example, if the computer is slow, which specific actions are slow? Is it slow all the time, or only sometimes? What changes did you make, if any, just before it became slow? Have you seen any alerts or error messages? Have you done anything to try to fix it? Most importantly, do you have a current backup of all data? If the answer to the last question is "no," back up now. Ask if you need guidance. Do nothing else until you have a backup.

  • MacBook Pro mid 2010 goes to sleep right after booting

    Hello and thank you in advance to anyone that can help me. I have  a MacBook Pro mid 2010 and I recently spill tea on the computer. I took everything and dried out everything hoping and praying that it will start again. I put everything back together and it started but right after starting (like 15 seconds after)  the monitor goes to sleep right away. But here is the weird thing; I have Windows 8 installed on bootcamp, so if I start on bootcamp, it starts with no problem. I am actually writing this from my macbook but on bootcamp. Any ideas why it goes to sleep on Mac but in Windows seems to be working just fine?

    Power or other problems related to unexpected system sleep, shutdown, lights or fans call for an SMC reset. Read all the steps.
    Before Resetting the SMC
    Try each of the following steps in this order before you reset the SMC. Test the issue after completing each troubleshooting step to determine if the issue still occurs.
    Press Command + Option + Escape to force quit any application that is not responding.
    Put your Mac to sleep by choosing the Apple () menu from the upper-left menu bar and then choosing Sleep. Wake the computer after it has gone to sleep.
    Restart your Mac by choosing the Apple () menu from the upper-left menu bar and then choosing Restart.
    Shut down your Mac by choosing the Apple () menu from the upper-left menu bar and then choosing Shut Down.
    Resetting the SMC on portables with a battery you should not remove on your own
    Shut down the computer.
    Plug in the MagSafe power adapter to a power source, connecting it to the Mac if it's not already connected.
    On the built-in keyboard, press the (left side) Shift-Control-Option keys and the power button at the same time. The power adapter indicator light will cycle off / on once.
    Release all the keys and the power button at the same time.
    Press the power button to turn on the computer.

  • My MacBook Pro mid 2010 was upgraded to mountain lion os x and then my wifi started saying no hardware installed

    My MacBook Pro mid 2010 was upgraded to mountain lion os x and then my wifi started saying no hardware installed

    Hello Harrisonhcue,
    I would be concerned too if I was getting the message "no hardware installed" when trying to use Wi-Fi on my MacBook Pro.  For a message like this, I recommend resetting your System Management Controller (SMC) and NVRAM. 
    Resetting the SMC on portables with a battery you should not remove on your own
    Note: Portable computers that have a battery you should not remove on your own include MacBook Pro (Early 2009) and later, all models of MacBook Air, and MacBook (Late 2009).
    Shut down the computer.
    Plug in the MagSafe power adapter to a power source, connecting it to the Mac if its not already connected.
    On the built-in keyboard, press the (left side) Shift-Control-Option keys and the power button at the same time.
    Release all the keys and the power button at the same time.
    Press the power button to turn on the computer. 
    Note: The LED on the MagSafe power adapter may change states or temporarily turn off when you reset the SMC.
    You can find the full article here:
    Intel-based Macs: Resetting the System Management Controller (SMC)
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht3964
    Resetting NVRAM / PRAM
    Shut down your Mac.
    Locate the following keys on the keyboard: Command (⌘), Option, P, and R. You will need to hold these keys down simultaneously in step 4.
    Turn on the computer.
    Press and hold the Command-Option-P-R keys before the gray screen appears.
    Hold the keys down until the computer restarts and you hear the startup sound for the second time.
    Release the keys.

  • Apple Unibody 13.3" MacBook Pro (Mid-2010): 4GB vs. 8GB DDR3 1066MHz Memory (RAM).

    Apple Unibody 13.3" MacBook Pro (Mid-2010): 4GB vs. 8GB DDR3 1066MHz Memory (RAM).
    1. About my Mac.
         Processor: Intel® Core 2 Duo (2.66GHz)
         Memory (RAM): 4.00GB DDR3 1066MHz (2 x 2.00GB)
         Hard Drive: 320GB 5400RPM (Apple Stock HD)
         Graphics: NVIDIA GeForce 320M (256MB)
         Operating System: Mac OS X Lion (10.7.1)
    2. My concerns/questions
         For quite some time now, I've been planning to upgrade the memory (RAM) of my MacBook Pro from 4.00GB (Apple Stock) to 8.00GB. In terms of "FASTER BOOT TIMES, IMPROVED RESPONSIVENESS (OPENING and CLOSING PROGRAMS, FILES & ETC.), SMOOTHER GRAPHICS, ABILITY TO OPEN MORE PROGRAMS SIMULTANEOUSLY AND OVERALL IMPROVEMENT IN PERFORMANCE", does it really make a BIG difference?
         If ever I am going to pursue this upgrade, should I let Apple do the upgrade or buy the parts and do it myself?
         If I am going to buy the parts and install it myself, what brand do you recommend? Crucial, Kingston, OWC & etc.?
         Why does Apple charge so much for memory (RAM) upgrades? Is the memory module they are using any special compared to the ones we can find in Amazon (Crucial, Kingston, OWC & etc.)?
    Thanks for helping me out with my concerns.

    I recommend OWC RAM because it's reasonably priced and OWC's support is great if you ever need it. I recommend installing the RAM yourself because it's dead simple. There is no good reason for anyone ever to pay Apple's prices for RAM.
    I don't think you will see faster boot times with more RAM, but that shouldn't be a concern, because there's seldom any need to shut down or restart a MBP. Just put it to sleep when you aren't using it, unless you won't use it again for more than two or three days. Opening and closing programs won't benefit significantly from more RAM either, but when running multiple large programs at once, you will see a significant improvement in their performance. It's well worth the small investment ($65) to upgrade from 4GB to 8GB.

    Any idea what it is? I'd appreciate any sort of diagnose?
    My Mac has had some freezing issues before and recently was in repair because of those (memory was changed), but I've never got an error message after a freeze, and I've always had to force shut down it when it freezes. Ran the Apple hardware test couple of times, but nothing found.
    I guess I have to reinstall Lion if this continues...

    Hello V-MA!
    I found this webpage: http://osx86.wikidot.com/known-issues#toc1
    by googeling for "com.apple.NVDAResman"
    Probably you have to remove the Geforce Grafic drivers as discribed here. But please wait until some others in the forum confirm this.
    If you don't understand how to do these commands with Terminal, ask once again for help.
    In your message you did not metion, that you just updated 1 hour and something your OS ("System uptime in nanoseconds: 6688834587150"). This is an important information.

  • MacBook Pro mid 2010 - iMac late 2012 in target mode?

    Can I connect a MacBook Pro mid 2010 with Mini Display Port with a late 1012 iMac in target mode? Thanks.

    A 2010 MBP does not support Thunderbolt technology so that is not an avenue for you.  A Fire wire with one of these adapters should enable you to connect the two devices:

    Ciao.

  • Macbook pro mid 2010 restarts itself

    Again I ask for help
    macbook pro mid 2010 restarts itself whenever I try to open any program exept safari, and even then when i go to some web pages.
    pram has been zapped several times, smc has been reset several times..
    was no problem until i installed mavericks, and since then the problem has not gone away,, even tho there have been several re installs of the os. (i.e., snow leopard, (twice) yosetime, mountain lion,(twice))
    now *** is going on with this piece a crappy apple product..

    Startup – Computer restarts by itself – Mountain Lion

  • My MacBook Pro (mid 2010) won't startup correctly in my admin account, but works fine if I use the guest account...

    My MacBook Pro (mid-2010) suddenly stopped working when I was overseas, but I managed to fix it when I returned back to the States after I reformatted and erased the disk, then installed Yosemite. I lost most of my files but didn't really care, though I noticed that some pictures from iPhoto had survived and were in the Trash folder.
    I thought I could copy/paste them back into iPhoto, but it wouldn't let me since they were still in the trash. I started getting an error message for EACH PICTURE saying it couldn't be copied because it was in the trash, and when I realized that I'd have to click "ok" 644 times (once for each picture), I tried to restart, then shut down, and eventually forced a shut down by holding down the power button. This is where the problem started...
    After trying to startup again, I was able to login to my admin account, and the desktop image would load, but I'd get the spinning rainbow wheel and the computer would remain frozen like that from then on. I tried to repair the disk (there was nothing wrong), and even re-installed the operating system again, but still the problem persists. BUT, if I login with my guest account, everything works fine.
    I'm guessing it has something to do with it somehow being frozen on those error messages for those 600+ pictures, but I have no idea how to fix/unfreeze it. Any tips or suggestions?

    Can the use of SATA3 instead of SATA2 hdd lead to some issues with my macbook?
    I can try to find and buy new SATA2 sdd hdd but they are expensive and I'm not sure it will fix the restarting issue.
    SATA3 is backwards compatible with SATA2.  That is not likely to be your problem.
    Based on what you have done, I suggest a reinstall of the OSX.
    Ciao.
