My MacBook Pro Shuts Down 5 Minutes After I Unplug It, Whats WRONG!?!?

Recently, whenever my Macbook Pro is ever unplugged it shuts down in less than five minutes. It works absolutely fine when the power source is plugged into the wall. Do you think i have a faulty battery? Are there other Possibilities? I have searched around and it seems like people who have the same, but less extreme experiences-have faulty batteries...
Thanks for the the help!

Defective battery. I know some folks with early MBPs that had this problem, and it was a bad battery in those cases. Call AppleCare. Assuming it's in warranty, they should ship you a replacement battery with a mailing label to return the bad one.

  • Macbook pro shuts down two minutes after start up

    Hi
    Can anyone help with a problem on my Macbook Pro. I have had it for two days and loaded all of my info and set up everything as I would like it and it froze.
    I waited and waited and in the end had to power down. When I restarted it I get the spinning wheel for about two minutes then it just shuts off the power. I have tried to start in safe mode etc to no avail.
    I feel so unlucky with Apple as month ago I bought myself a new Imac and within three weeks the hard drive failed. They have replaced it with a new one but now this problem is making me feel unsure about Apple am I just unlucky? Thank you

    The forum you want MBP
    http://discussions.apple.com/category.jspa?categoryID=190
    Or try Using Snow Leopard also

  • My MacBook Pro shuts down within seconds after starting with a Gray Screen and Apple Logo, a bar comes at the bottom.

    My MacBook Pro starts with a Gray Screen and Apple Logo, a bar comes at the bottom, but after few seconds the machine shuts down. This was bought approx 1 year back. Please help!!

    jayanta.ray,
    which model MacBook Pro do you have (did you buy it new?), and which version of OS X is installed on it?

  • Macbook Pro shuts down on startup after botched Leopard install

    After I tried to install Leopard on my Macbook Pro, the install failed and the second time I tried to install it after restarting it said that it could not be installed because it didn't see OSX 10.4.11. It won't boot up off of the OSX 10.4 install disk either saying that software can't be installed on the computer. Whenever I try to boot off the hard drive it can't find OSX 10.4, it either gives the old question mark folder error or it just literally shuts itself down. Any ideas? I would greatly appreciate anything.

    HI Guardian,
    If you haven't tried this ... boot the MBPro from the Tiger disk by holding down the C key, inserting the disk and pressing the power button all at one time. Release the C key when you see the Apple logo on the screen. By default an Installler window will open. Ignore that... now look up at the Menu and click Utilities/Startup Manager. Click Startup Manager. A window that opens will indicate the drives available to boot from, I'm praying it will say 10.4.x in there. If it does, select MacintoshHD 10.4.x and click Restart. If this works then you have a working Tiger system folder. The thing that tipped me off is the, "question mark" icon... that shows up when the computer can't locate a system folder.
    Also, whenever you install an UPGRADE from say Tiger to Leopard make sure you have enough free drive space. You can use Disk Utility in Applications/Utilities to do that. Rule of thumb... never allow a drive to fall below 15% free space.

  • Macbook pro shuts down during reboot after flat battery

    Hi, I have a macbook pro (early 2011) And it went flat two nights ago whilst watching a movie. It was plugged in but I've been having charger issues. Anyway, now that it's fully charged, whenever i turn it on it gets to the apple logo with a progress bar (restoring the previous session maybe?), but then shuts down. I've tried a few times and its the same everytime.I suspect that it's trying to restore the last session (the progress bar - I cant recall whether that happens normally) and running into problems because of the flat battery episode. Can a session restore be cancelled?
    I can still boot up the windows partition by pressing the option button during start up, its just the mac partition that wont boot. Also, I am still running Snow Leopard (what it came with, though with all updates).any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Anyone?

    jayanta.ray,
    which model MacBook Pro do you have (did you buy it new?), and which version of OS X is installed on it?

  • My MacBook Pro shuts down almost immediately after login.

    I just installed my banks security software, Rapport, and an Adobe flash update. Does anyone know why it's shutting down, and have any hints on how to solve the problem please?
    I don't even get time to see what programs might be running. Is there a way to start up in safe mode.

    nigelneedsanswers,
    yes, there’s a way to start in Safe mode.

  • MacBook Pro shuts down as soon as I unplug the power

    Help,
    As soon as I unplug the power of my MacBook Pro, it shuts down, and all of my unsaved stuff is lost. Anyone got a soloution?
    PS Is the battery user replaceable? I am using the Mid-2010 model.

    No, that battery is not really user-replaceable. What numbers do you see for that battery in Apple symbol/About this Mac/More Info/System Report/Power? (Especially the Charge and Health Information.)

  • Macbook Pro Shuts Down During or Soon After Start-Up

    My macbook pro shuts down after booting up. Sometimes it makes it to the desktop, but sometimes just to the gray screen. Also, at desktop, it asks if I want to shut down. Is something pressing on the shutdown button? Any help on what to do?

    Try resetting the SMC.

  • On starting up, my macbook pro shuts down after 25 seconds of booting up.

    Hi there. On starting up, my macbook pro shuts down after 25 seconds of booting up. The time bar comes on for a while before it simply goes blank and switches off without any notification. Battery iappears charged. Could it be a virus? Help please!! O

    Reinstall Lion, Mountain Lion, or Mavericks without erasing drive
    Boot to the Recovery HD:
    Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
    Repair
    When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list.  In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive.  If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported then click on the Repair Permissions button. When the process is completed, then quit DU and return to the main menu.
    Reinstall Mountain Lion or Mavericks
    OS X Mavericks- Reinstall OS X
    OS X Mountain Lion- Reinstall OS X
    OS X Lion- Reinstall Mac OS X
         Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet
                     if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.

  • Macbook Pro shutting down. Hardware error code 4MEM/62/40000000:0x7f537f90

    Macbook Pro shutting down. Not the same action making it shutdown. Anywhere from being online to attaching a photo to an email to working in Word or Photoshop. Even after it's closed and not being used. I come back to it being shut off and saying it had to restart because of a problem. I ran the Hardware check and got the Hardware error code 4MEM/62/40000000:0x7f537f90.
    I must say I am quite disappointed. I have used Mac for work but had a PC since day one, and I JUST got this Macbook Pro in Dec. I was delighted that Mac usually didn't have as many problems with viruses etc as PC. And now last couple days, constantly shutting itself down. The closest store to me is a few hrs away. I am in South Dakota, store is in Minnesota Any help would be appreciated.

    Can you post a screen shot of About This Mac -> (More Info) -> System Report -> Memory and click on each DIMM and post the bottom right pane. You can also do the same without a screen shot using just text version using the following highlighted command in OSX Terminal. The output is also listed.
    system_profiler SPMemoryDataType

  • My 15" Macbook Pro, shuts down by it self (Random occurrence).

    My 15" Macbook Pro, shuts down (randomly) by it self, some times it will not turn on, and some other times (very rarely) the fans go on “very loudly” the second I turn it on. But the computer, does not turn on at all, even with the battery fully charged and the fans runing full blast.
    Some other times, it will not wake up. It will only turn on or wake up if connected to the power adapter, even if the battery is fully charged.
    I have already reset (a couple times) de firmware, the smc and he pmu and the problem persists.
    Al this goes on randomly and unpredictably. Some times it works just fine for 4 or 5 days and the suddenly something happens.
    I also think that some times the computer runs extremely hot.
    PLEASE HELP!!!!!!

    I have the same thing happening with a new macbook I bought my wife and I called apple today and after going back and forth between apple care and apple customer service they are shipping me out a new replacement macbook as it is less than 30 days since I bought it. I am waiting for their email with the Fed ex info so I can send this one back and then they will send out the new one.
    If it is still in warranty I suggest you call Apple customer service and let them know how bad it is and insist on a new one!
    This one also reboots at the slightest movement and it took me several tries to finally log in on it tonight to delete all the user accounts before I send it back!
    Hopefully the replacement one is glitch free!

  • MacBook Pro shuts down when i close the lid

    Hey,
    My MacBook Pro shuts down when i close the lid.
    It started to do this one or two times, but now it is every time.
    I have the latest battery update, so this should not be the issue here..
    Any sugestions??
    I have started to suspect the it might be some faulty conecctions or somthing..

    If it's unable to go into the proper sleep state for some reason then it will do that.
    Run /Utilities/Console and click 'All Messages' top left then close the lid, wait a minute then open it again - if it's shut down then reboot and open Console again and check the latest log lines looking for 'sleepimage' - it should give you an indication of what happened/didn't. If you're not sure what it all means post _just those lines_ here.
