My Mac is completely charger-dependent.

If it is disconnected from the charger for 2 minutes it will die. I was wondering what I can do to fix this? Replace the battery?
I'm assuming the problem stemmed from leaving it plugged up 24/7 since I got it two and a half years ago. D:

- Calibrate the battery: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1490

  • I accidentally synced my mum's brand new iPad to my mac book air. A few days later I realised that my iTune library on my mac is completely gone. So is my iPhone 4s after I synced it with my mac. How do I get my old iTunes library back? Please help!

    I accidentally synced my mum's brand new iPad to my mac book air. A few days later I realised that my iTune library on my mac is completely gone. So is my iPhone 4s after I synced it with my mac. How do I get my old iTunes library back? I tried using icloud on my iphone but it stated that I have never back up my phone before. So I guess my iCloud data is gone too? But I have back up my mac in my harddrive using time machine. So how do I get my old itune library back? Please help! Thanks!

    1) ensure iTunes is authorized for your iTunes store account(s)
    2) connect your device and right-click or control-click it in the iTunes Source list, then choose transfer purchases from the shortcut menu that appears.
    3) sync the device
    iTunes will wipe the iPhone but, since you transferred your purchases in the previous step, your content will be in your library and you can re-populate the iPhone with it.
    above works for purchases from the iTunes store. for everything else, check out this post by Zevoneer.

    Does the iPod show up in iTunes on the Mac? If not try:
    iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Mac OS X
    also
    If you  have iTunes 11 turn on the Sidebar. Go to iTunes>View and click on Show Sidebar. You can also do a Crtl+S to show the sidebar. The sidebar is where Devices appears. and Control+B to show the Menu bar
    Otherwise what happens when you try to sync? Note that you can only sync with one iTunes library/computer. If that is the problem you should go to Settings>General>Reset>Erase and content and setting and set up the iPod on you computer/iTunes library. One content on the iPod does not belong to you.

  • Mac book pro charger

    My Mac Book pro charger has broken. The Mac is from the u.k but I am living in South Korea now. Can I buy a charger out here and it will work ok ???

    You may purchase an Apple charger anywhere in the world and it will work.  The issue you have to be aware of the the outlet plug type in a given country, thus you may need an appropriate plug adapter.
    Ciao.

  • Mac book pro charger is there a fuse as mine just stopped working?

    Just plugged my new mac book pro into the mains and the charger sparked and I assume blew a fuse. Does anyone know where the fuse is? This is a UK computer not US. Thanks

    What is the correct fuse raiting for a mac book pro charger? My fuse blew at a practice room and the practice room guy replaced it with one lying around which then blew straight away so I'm thinking (hoping) he swapped it with one with the wrong rating. But now I don't have the original to check the rating!
    Thanks

    Yes you can use an 85W adapter with a MacBook that requires a 60W adapter. Not an issue.

  • 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..

  • My Mac Mini will charge - but not sync with - USB-connected devices (ipod, camera, memory card reader). How do I fix it?

    My Mac Mini will charge - but not sync with - USB-connected devices (ipod, camera, memory card reader). I have tried unplugging the devices, restarting the computer, selectively unplugging and plugging in the devices, closing and opening the relevant applications (iTunes, iPhoto, etc). I have tried using different USB cables.
    It's like all of a sudden the synching service stopped functioning or recognizing these devices for some reason. The other ports work just fine (monitor).
    The only USB-connected external device that appears to be unaffected is the USB SuperDrive and it works on all the USB ports into which I plug it.
    How do I fix this?

    Open Console in Applications>Utilities & see if there are any clues or repeating messages when this happens or doesn't happen.

  • My macbook pro charger will not charge my mac. The charger is in great condition, but it will not register as charging and it will not charge my computer. is there any way to fix this?

    My computer has stopped recieving charge. The charger is in great condition, but it will not register, nor charge my computer. I do not know if its my mac or the charger. Is there any way to fix this?

    Do you have another charger to test with?
    It is very possible that somehow the wire might have gotten bent without your knowledge and that is why it is not working.
    If you have an Apple store near you, you might want to set up a genius appointment so that they can test it for you.

  • Laptop wont completely charge

    I have HP Compaq Presario C700 (Not sure what model since there are many of C700 up there) that  wont completely charge. When it reaches 59%, it stops charging and the charging light will turn off.  It also says 59% available (plugged in, not charging) on the taskbar.  This problem is happening with a new battery which  is 12 Cell.
    Things already done:
    1) Calibrating the battery(Discharging and charging it again).
    2) Updated Bios
    3) Uninstalling Microsoft ACPI -Compliant Control Method Battery ......
    scanning for hardware changes, restarting.....
    4) Returned the battery then got another NEW ONE which does the same thing.
      Right now, I have no idea what to do. Any help will be appreciated. Thanks..

    It is ok. Atleast you  offered help.
