  • Macbook Pro shuts down with 40% battery left... does not just go to sleep

    Hi,
    Our MacBook Pro has started to shut down with about 40% battery left. After it has shut down, I press the button underneath the computer and 2 our of 5 lights light up on the battery. I wouldn't mind if it just went to sleep but I totally have to restart it and lose everything I have been working on when it died. The computer used to go to sleep when the battery got to 0%, then I could plug it in and keep working.
    I don't know if it's a software issue or a battery issue or a firmware issue.
    Any tips would be MUCH appreciated.
    Thanks a lot.

    I have read so many articles across the internet with people experiencing this problem. This is the conclusion I came to.
    I could not calibrate my battery as my system would hard power down before it got anywhere close to draining the battery entirely. The last 10 cycles on my battery were attempts at calibrating. The most common cause would be because the battery in our macbook pro does contain something close to the charge being reported by the computer, but cannot deliver it. Your fuel gauge is probably not incorrect, especially when the leds on the battery itself show a charge that should be capable of running the machine. Even if it is not calibrated correctly. The internal resistance of the battery itself has compromised the batteries ability to deliver the amperage necessary to run our machines. After finally realizing this, I turned my screen brightness all the way down, and sat all my power settings to max battery life without allowing the machine to go asleep. Then, I went to sleep myself =). In the morning it appeared as though I had a successful calibration and the machine did not power down hard. Depending on how bad of shape your battery is in, this may or may not work. Either way, it didn't matter much. Even with my fuel gauge being correct, if my screen brightness was cranked up and I was doing anything somewhat processor intensive, my battery failed to provide the needed amperage and powered down my system hard again.
    The battery really does have the amount of power it says, it just cannot deliver it as fast as needed. At a slower rate, it will work. A replacement battery is needed. I cannot explain the strange jumps/dips in storage capacity but would guess these numbers are a guide, and more than one environmental factor can change this number. Also, once the internal resistance builds up inside the battery and the inability to calibrate happens, it compunds the problem.
    My machine is a first gen intel macbook pro. A few months after I bought it, I had battery problems and apple replaced my battery. My machine is 31 months old, it's battery is somewhere around 27. I tried to get apple to replace my battery and they told me no. I was 40% healthy @ 207 cycles. Many people complain about this but it seems reasonable to me, I didn't argue. I do believe my battery failed prematurely, however, it was due to a few factors and I do not think it was the batteries fault. My machine was one of those nice overheating first generation macbook pros. To make the matter worse, one of my internal fans stopped working. I knew this as my istat pro program showed me 1 fan @ zero rpm. I figured I had applecare and had work to do, so continued to use the computer for several months. I did quite a bit of video encoding and processor intensive work. When I would get to work in the morning, my granite desktop was really cold, however, after a half hour or so with the macbook pro running the heat would dissipate through it and warm it up nice and comfortable! lol, some may not think this is funny, but it worked well for me. I frequently had over 180 degree cpu temps and the bar above the keyboard being too hot to lay your hand on and keep it there. I am sure some of this excess heat contributed to the premature failure of my battery. The type of batteries in our machines are killed by heat, charge amount, cycles and age. Probably in that order for most users. So, can I blame apple because my unit ran hotter than it should have because their fan failed! eh, maybe, but I am happy with this laptop overall. I have never had a single laptop for more than 15 months and have had this one for over 30 now.
    I ran across this site somewhere, it may have been another user on these forums, I cannot remember. http://www.batteryuniversity.com/partone-19.htm On this page, it talks about our batteries, the effects of heat and level of charge in combination with age. At 77 degrees F., charged to 100% (which is very typical of our machines, or close to it) after one year the battery is 80% as good as it was when it was new. At 32 degrees it is as 94% as good as new after one year. Jump up to 104 F. and the battery is only 65% as good as new after 1 year. Sometimes my computer is running for days and sometimes the environment is warm. Add that to the heat produced by the machine itself and I bet the battery sustained 100 degree temperatures for long periods of time. Just for fun, at 140 degrees and 100% charge in our lithium ion batteries, after only 3 months the capacity is only 60% of its new capacity.
    Anyways, that is my battery story. Sum up. The inability to calibrate is due to the batteries increased internal resistance and inability to deliver the charge at a rate needed by your computer even though it appears healthy, or somewhat healthy. You may be able to calibrate by making your laptop drain less power, turn screen brightness all the way down, turn airport & bluetooth off, let hard disk sleep, and let it go. But that will not stop the hard shut down problem, although the fuel gauge will be more accurate. Think of it like this. a 100 gallon fuel tank on a car full of gas. The fuel gauge is correct, it is full. However, the fuel line connecting the fuel tank to the engine is made of a space age material that shrinks as it ages and is exposed to heat. Eventually the fuel line shrinks to the size of a coffee stirrer or small straw. When the motor is turned off the fuel seeps into the small straw. Start the motor, it begins to sip the fuel from the straw. Rev it up (encode video), the motor demands more gas but cannot get it. The motor stalls out (your computer shuts off). Same idea somewhat. Sorry so long

  • Macbook Pro Shut down with a Woosh sound and Beeeep Beeeeep

    Hi,
    I have Macbook Pro bought in 2010 Nov and since Dec 2011 i have been having this problem, the computers shuts down with a Beeeeppp Beeepp loud sound and there is WOOOOOOSHHHH should quite loud and then shut up... i have done 2 service but the problems still exist and i am stuck as it works only 10-15 mts before it shuts down...

    If you have the 15" 2010 model, you may be having some problems with a bad NVIDIA GPU found on some boards that will cause kernel panics. See -> http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4088?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US. Note that the kernel panics only affect the 15" model.
    If you do have the problem as described in the Knowledge Base article, it's a good thing that you purchased the machine in November 2010 as the replacement program is only 'good' for three years from date of purchase.
    If you DON'T have the 15" model, call back. We can look at some logs, maybe, and see just what's going on.

  • Macbook Pro shuts down with a full battery, resets date

    Hey I have a mid 2011 Macbook Pro that has been shutting down randomly. It'll have a  full battery, but shut down when I unplug it or even sometimes when it's still plugged in. Every time I start it up again, the date is changed to Jan. 1 2008 and there's a notification that because it's set to that date, some applications may respond "erratically". It did this for about 2 weeks, then was back to working fine for about a month and now it's started up again.
    Today when I turned it back on after it shut down, a notification said to rebuild the iPhoto library. I didn't really know what it meant so I clicked OK because I thought it would help. Instead it erased my entire iPhoto library and shut down again. Thankfully I had my picture backed up!
    I have a Genius appointment tomorrow, but was curious if this is happening to anyone else or if anyone has a diagnosis!
    Thanks!

    Ok so I took it to the Apple store today and the guy was mildly helpful. He said I'm probably running too many programs at the same time and it's depleting all the power. Kind of ridiculous in my opinion because I feel like MacBooks are built to handle checking your email and editing a picture at the same time. He checked all the systems with disk utility and everything, including the battery, came back in good shape.  Anyway, it worked fine (of course) when I was with him, but the moment I got home it was worse than ever. Now, even when plugged in, it'll only stay on for a few minutes, if that. It won't turn on at all if it's not plugged in. It plays this game where it shuts itself down then turns itself back on then shuts down again over and over. Any ideas? I feel like I'll just have to take it back to the store.

  • 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

  • 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 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?

  • MacBook Pro shuts down with battery in

    My 2009 MacBook Pro randomly shuts off with the battery in but runs fine when I remove the battery. The battery is relatively new (less than 1 year). When it is plugged in the light on the adapter is green however, the battery status says "not chargIng". I have tried all of the following:
    Reset SMC
    Reset PRAM
    Repaired disc and disc permissions
    Used different adapter
    All to no avail. Does anyone have any thoughts?

    Sounds like you need to replace the battery.

  • Looking to buy new MacBook Pro for editing with Premiere/After Effects, but wondering about trade-off between Processor Speed and Graphics Card

    I'm a professional video editor (using Premiere and After Effects) looking to buy a new MacBook Pro and am deciding between two models. The slightly older model has a 2.8GHZ i7 (3rd generation) Quad Core processor with a 1GB SDRAM of NVIDIA GE FORCE GT 650M Graphics Card. Then newer model has a 2.3GHZ i7 (4th generation) Quad Core preocessor with 2GB SDRAM of NVIDIA GE FORCE 750M/Intel Iris Pro Graphics Card.
    Which makes the most difference (processor speed vs. graphics card) with editing with Premiere and After Effects?
    Any help/guidance would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks!

    1. Your MBP will be somewhat slower than your iMac, as reflected in the general speed; desktop Macs have more RAM and storage.
    You recon? If he get's the 17", he would have up to 8x more RAM, 4 x more GPU,, and  a bit faster CPU;.
    2. Be aware of the advantages and disadvantages of extra RAM. Loading up the slot will make juggling multiple applications easier, like Photoshop, VLC, and Safari. However, more than 4gigs of RAM will make loading your MBP on startup twice as slow - at least a minute, probably longer. That's why a MBP user with extra RAM should sleep their machine nearly always when not in use, rather than powering off. 
    I did not know this, I just upgraded from 4gb to 8gb the other day. Have not noticed it being slower, but I don't often shut it down. It's nice to not even have to bother with ifreemem.
    3. Additional storage and RAM will maximize the basic capabilities of your MBP, but you won't be able to make a 2.3ghz machine any faster than it already is.
    SSD
    4. I still feel that your iMac will be faster than your prospective MBP. The only way to dramatically increase the speed would be the installation of a SSD drive (like the lauded OWC series). But they're not cheap.
    I don't want to rain on your parade, but want you to get a more realistic idea of your performance.
    I chose a macbook pro, 17" of cause. I use it for gaming. Yes a iMac is better for gaming. But, it's nice to be able to move around. Set up a man cave in the lounge 1 week, or in the bedroom, the next. But you fork out a lot more dosh for that luxury. And yes, not as much power as Poikkeus has said.

  • 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.

    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.

    You are still under warranty.  Call Apple Care. Make sure you get a case number as all repairs have an additional 90 days of warranty. 
    #1 - You have 14 days from the date of purchase to return your computer with no questions asked.
    #2 - You have 90 days of FREE phone tech support.
    #3 - You have the standard one year Apple warranty.
    #4 - If you've purchased an AppleCare Protection Plan, your warranty last for 3 years.   You can obtain AppleCare anytime up to the first year of the purchase of your computer.
    Take FULL advantage of your warranty.  Posting on a message board should be done as a last resort and if you are out of warranty or Apple Care has expired.
