Mac book pro not showing low battery waring

hi....i bought ma mb pro arnd three months back.....from the past few days i have been observing tha my mac is not showing low battery warning when the battery is drained.....plz suggest me what should be done to overcome this problem....thanx...

The first step is to try re-calibrating the battery, sorabh.
See the instructions for this at http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1490
You may also need to reset your SMC - see http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3964
If the computer shuts down instead of sleeping when it runs out of charge try avoiding using it when it gets close to empty during the re-calibration process and just let it idle until it sleeps. Sometimes, when the battery is very low and badly calibrated , if you are using it a sudden demand for current can cause it to shut down suddenly instead.
If the above processes don't fix it, then have a look under the Apple Menu > About this Mac > More Info and check in the "Power" section under "Hardware". Post the figures that are shown there for "Full Charge Capacity", "Cycle Count" and "Condition"
Cheers
Rod

  • Why does my mac book pro not show in 1080p on my flat screen

    why does my mac book pro not show in 1080p on my flat screen. My mac bookpro always showed in 1080p on a Sanyo Plasma screen. Now when I connect mac book pro I get a blank screen. It will display in 720 but not 1080p. Also will show in 1080i but pictures flicker.

    davenug,
    given how much we currently know about your MacBook Pro, why do you think that we would know the reason? Please help us to help you by providing relevant information about your MacBook Pro — which model is it? Which version of OS X is installed on it? Is its battery fully charged? Is its AC charger working properly? &c.

  • Cannot get disc out of disc drive - Mac Book Pro - not showing the disc on finder and eject button is not working

    I inserted a disc into the disc drive but it did not start up.  It is not showing in Finder.  When I press the eject key nothing happens.  Can someone tell me how to get the disc out of the disc drive?

  • Mac Book Pro not showing under shared section on my iMac anymore.

    I used to be able to access my files on my MacBook Pro remotly with my iMac through file sharing eventhough the lid was closed. Now, everytime I close the lid of my MacBook pro it also disappears from the shared section on the iMac.
    At the end I would like to be able to access my MacBook with my iMac remotely at home, so I can keep the laptop closed and placed behind the iMac. Thats the idea. And I had it working somehow before. So why is my laptop playing dead all of the sudden when I close the lid?
    Another thing that got effected by this sudden change is the charging of my Apple devices (iphone/shuffle) when closing the lid. it just stops. Sometimes it doesnt charge the phone and other times it charges the phone but its switched off? I mean ***? I turn it on and its 100%. So there must be something wrong with the MacBook pro.
    (additional info...I had the screen recently fixed since it had a crack in it, but it everything was working when I got it back....now out of the blue it stops)
    Dont get me wrong...when the lids up everything is working perfectly. Charging is good. Sharing is working and I can use back to my mac on my iMac. Close the lid and the problems pop up.

    Actually Pages for Mac and Pages for iOS are two completely different versions of the app and have nothing to do with one another. They have to be purchased separately, for the Mac from the Mac App Store and for your iPad from the iTunes App Store.
    You may have a corrupted index file. Try reindexing your iMac and then see if it will update Pages. Others have solved this issue by repairing the permissions on their Mac. Thirdly, if the other two ideas prove fruitless, create a Test user account on your iMac, log into the Test account, sign into the Mac App Store and then see if you can update Pages.

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities. 
    It sounds like your MacBook Pro has a startup issue that is causing it to only display an Apple logo. Try the suggestions in the article below, they will resolve most issues like this one.

  • Wifi On Mac Book Pro Not Connecting

    The wifi I am about to lose my mind! The wifi  on my mac book pro will not connect to my home router. I had this problem when I moved in (2 months ago) and the solution would be to unplug the router and the cable modem and plug them back in a few minuets later. However, that fix is no longer working. My network has a password protected option and one without a password. I can connect to the password protected option fine. However, after a period of time that ranges from a few seconds to a few minuets I will get a pop up that says "connection time out has occurred" and I will no longer have internet connection. I have to go back to the wifi icon on the top tool bar and reselect the network. This happens non-stop. When I try to connect to the other password-protected network I will enter my password and it says connection time out has occurred and will not connect. If I enter the wrong password it just says invalid password. EVERYTHING else I own works on the network. My roku, ipod, ipad, kindle, galaxy 4, my roomate's iPhone, and both my roomates' laptops (neither are macs). It is not a matter of there  being too much traffic on the network (like Apple suggested) because I have disconnected literally everything else just to see if it would work and it still did not. My internet works fine when I am on my college campus, but when I go other places like Starbucks or the air port I do notice that my internet is substantially slower then the people sitting next to me.
    So I called Apple because I bought the extended apple care. They went through their long list of troubleshooting...it all failed...so naturally they concluded that it must be the router that’s causing the problems.
    Its not the router. Everythign else works on the network. There is post after post on here about the same exact thing happening to literally hundreds of other people. It is a brand new router. And at my last apartment wifi was included in the rent (so it was the apartment's router not one I bought) and the same problem still occurred (Apple has record of this because I called them then too). At my old apartment I resorted to just plugging it in the wall with an Ethernet cord but unfortunately, that is not an option at my new house.
    Apple said that I can bring it in and have them look at it but it’s obviously going to work there and I really do not have time to drive all the way there for them to just tell me that since it works there it must be router's fault when I know its not.
      Has anyone had any luck in dealing with Apple and Apple Care in regards to this issue

    It would help us to know which model computer you have, which OS version you're using, how much RAM (if applicable), etc. You can have this info displayed on the bottom of every post by completing your system profile and filling in the information asked for.
    This will help in providing you with the correct troubleshooting solutions.  The more info about your computer you include, the easier it is to help you.
    If you do not know the model of your Mac, you can check under Apple Menu/About This Mac -  which is located in the upper left hand corner of your Finder.

  • Mac book pro not going to sleep

    mac book pro when put to sleep, the monitor turns off, but the light does not indicate sleep mode, I can hear the motor running and it is warm, indicating it is not sleeping.  It is an early 08 mac book pro, running Lion, completely updated.
    Anyone aware of this issue?  Apprectiate any insight.
    Thanks
    JT

    Are you **** closing the lid to put it tp sleep? It might be operating in clamshell mode for some reason. Try the drop down menu for the Apple and click sleep, or option, command ,eject.
    You can check your login items under accounts, and get rid of all those, by highlighting and using the - sign, it could also be a bluetooth item tha is keeping your mac from sleeping, a phone headset, mouse, etc. If it is a blurtooth yhing turn off blurtoth till you need it.

  • Mac Book Pro not working replaced logic board

    Hi all,
    My Mac Book Pro died on me about 2 weeks ago. I was using it like I normally do and then suddenly an error message came up on the screen and a white transparent screen came from the top of the screen to the bottom. Then it shut off. After that we tried resetting the PRAM and tried booting it from a Snow Leopard disk. The machine won't chime. It does spin a disk in the drive though, but there is no video either.
    I brought it in to an apple store and they said it was the logic board. I purchased a new logic board , installed it and the symptoms are the same. Does anyone know what the problem could be?
    -Steve

    I purchased a new logic board , installed it

    Mac book not projecting same image as cinema display - any troubleshooting ideas to help?

    Hello Christina,
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities!
    It sounds like the cinema display is not showing the same image that the Macbook.
    If by that you mean it shows the desktop wallpaper, bit does not mirror the computers monitor, then take a look at this article.
