My battery is fully charged, but when i disconnect from mains MBP won't start

As soon as i remove mains cable from MBP the laptop just crashes ... no juice ... even though it says battery is fully charged. As soon as i replace cable, it reboots ... i need this laptop to work on battery !!

Try resetting the SMC.  If that doesn't work, I would get the machine to Apple for service ASAP.

  • My battery is fully charged but when I hook it up with a cord to the Aux it says that the battery is low.

    I have the iPod classic 30GB and just recently am experiencing problems with the battery.  When I connect it to my truck through the cord AUX it will play for maybe 10 minutes and then die out telling me the battery is low needs to be charged.  I know that can't be especially since I know it was fully charged before I connected.  Is it possible that I just need to get a new battery?

    If it's an older 3rd or 4th gen iPod, and not the 5th gen "video" iPod, the battery is not that hard to change yourself, if you are good at such things.  This web site has repair guides

    The part can usually found on eBay or other online sources.  If you pay for the replacement, the service cost may not be economical. 
    You can also do the replacement on the 5th gen iPod, but the seam is VERY tight on that model, so opening it up is more difficult.

    simply try doing a back up and restore
    when going thru the activation screen, select SET UP AS NEW and then test your device. if it is not shutting down then it could be 1 or more apps tht have been downloaded wch could be affecting the device
    you will then need to follow the process of eleimnation, meaning add 2 apps and then monitor your phone, if nothing happes then add another couple of them and then check
    good luck !!

    Every iPod comes with complimentary, single-incident telephone technical support within 90 days of your iPod purchase.  If you also purchased AppleCare, then your warranty is extended for technical support and hardware coverage for two years from the original purchase date of your iPod.
    Suggest that you take full advantage of the above.

  • 4 days old MBP 13". First boot up showed charge of 100%, next boot up showed battery fully charged but the percentage read 98% in the subsequent boot ups the battery is fully charged but percentage reads 96%. Whats wrong??

    I recently purchased a 13" MacBook Pro. On my first boot up, the battery charged to 100%. I didn't operate this thing on the battery. The next time I booted this thing up, the battery was charged but the meter read 98%. In the subequent boot ups of this machine, and I still having not used the battery, my battery is fully charged but the meter now reads 96%. IS there some problem with the hardware or the software? Help is appreciated!!
    Thanks.

    hey thank you for the info. Based on what happened, the battery has gone up to 100% just once when I booted this machine for the first time. On subsequent occasions the Battery Charged symbol has appreard at below 100% charging. I have been using my MacBook Pro for the whole day with outlet power and never did the battery go back to 100%. I hope I don't have to calibrate the battery on this model?

  • My lights on my macbook indicate it's fully charged, but when i unplug it, it turns off...any ideas?

  • Battery is fully charged but the camera says it is not

    The battery is fully charged but the camera  low battery icon flashes as soon as it is turned on. I know the battery is good because when I place it into my other Mavica camera it shows a fully charged battery.  What can I do?

    Toni,
    Based on the information, it seems that there is an issue with the Camera software. If the battery model that you’re using is the one suggested by the Camera, then you need to send the Camera for service.
    You can initiate service request from the below page:

  • Just received a ipad2 it is fully charged but when I turn it none or the icons show up...only itunes.  It is a iPad2 wi-fi 3G .

    I just received a iPad2 Wi-Fi 3G 32GB, it is fully charged but when I turn it on no icons appear except Itunes and a connect cord.  What am I doing wrong?

    The screen that you see is trying to tell you to connect the iPad to iTunes on your computer with the cable that came with it. ITunes will then walk you thru the setup steps. Make sure you download the latest version of iTunes before you connect your iPad.

  • Have an iPod touch 4th gen.  It is completely charged, but once I disconnect from a power source it shuts down and then the apple logo just keeps reappearing.  I have restored via iTunes and reset all the settings.  Any suggestions?

    Have an iPod touch 4th gen.  It is completely charged, but once I disconnect from a power source it shuts down and then the apple logo just keeps reappearing.  I have restored via iTunes and reset all the settings.  Any suggestions?

    If you restored to factory settings/new iPod via iTunes (Not via Settings>General>Reset>Erase all Content and Setting) and still have the problem that indicates a hardware problem.
    Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store..

  • When battery is fully charged, screen says to disconnect power.  User guide makes no note of this requirement...which is right?

    When battery is fully charged on MiFi6620L, screen says connect power.  User guide does not indicate this is necessary.  Which is the better way.  We always use the MiFi where we have power available.

    Thank you for the response.  The MiFi works off the battery just fine.  Since the unit is our only Internet connection, we have it powered up all day so it seemed to make more sense to just leave it connected to the power source.  The unit is turned off at night, but usually not disconnected from the power supply.  That is what we did with our original unit and it seemed to be OK.

  • TS1365 Battery is fully charged. When I first put on my Macbook, screen went blue and nothing happened. Now, there is no fire up when I depress the start button. When I close the lid, the sleep light comes on.

    Can somebody help me? When i first turned on my MacBook, it never booted up and ultimately the screen went blank. The battery is fully charged and now when I depress the start-up button, nothing happens. Its worth noting that when I close the lid, the sleep light turns on. Thank you in advance for your help.

  • HT4623 Trying  to update my iPad to latest iOS. It connects to iTunes and appears to have done everything, to include restore from backup on my computer. When I disconnect from computer the iPad then starts from "Hello", "Select language", "Choose Wi-Fi N

    It then asks me to Set Up iPad and I choose "Restore from iTunes Backup" It completes the synch according to iTunes. but the iPad screen just shows connected to iTunes. When I eject from iTunes, the iPad still shows Connect to iTunes.  No matter what I do it still shows "iPad Not Set Up"  What is Up?

    If you have an iPad 1, the max iOS is 5.1.1. For newer iPads, the current iOS is 6.1. The Settings>General>Software Update only appears if you have iOS 5.0 or higher currently installed.

    If you are currently running an iOS lower than 5.0, connect the iPad to the computer, open iTunes. Then select the iPad under the Devices heading on the left, click on the Summary tab and then click on Check for Update.
    Tip - If connected to your computer, you may need to disable your firewall and anitvirus software temporarily.  Then download and install the iOS update. Be sure and backup your iPad before the iOS update. After you update an iPad (except iPad 1) to iOS 6.x, the next update can be installed via wifi (i.e., not connected to your computer).
