Something's.... wrong with my magsafe or battery

How can I uploade screencaps so i can show you what is wrong with my battery and (magsafe) charger?
In order: Battery is at 96 percent, yet still needs 1:26 to charge
I unplug the battery, and I have 18 and a half hours of battery
I plug it back in, and it says charged, but the light on the adapter is still orange
I wait 20 seconds, and again, battery at 96%, 1:21 to charge
Also my battery life has been terrible in the last few days, well below one hour total running off of only battery, nothing plugged in
MacBook Pro 2.0 Ghz Core Duo   Mac OS X (10.4.7)  

Reset the PMU (power management unit) and re-calibrate the Battery

  • Something is wrong with my mac pro battery?

    Hi guys, I'm a new mac user and just got this mac pro for less than 3 months.I seldom run my mac on battery and I always charge it when in use.
    The battery indicator meter showed 100% at first, but recently it started to decrease even when I'm still charging it. The battery indicator light is always green and the indicator shows it's not charging but the percentile is not 100%. I tried to calibrate the battery once and after I recharged it the battery meter went back to 100%, but after one day or two, it started to drop from 100% to 99% then 98%....
    No idea what's going on here... The mac was is basically brand new and I checked the battery status and found only 4 cycles have been done.
    Is there any problem with my battery?
    So confused......

    Nothing to worry about. Even if you use the power cable most of the time, your MBP battery will display numbers like 100%, then 99%, etc. At 94%, you'll see the power indicator light on your cable turn amber. The MBP promptly charges to 100%.
    You only need to calibrate your battery once a month.
    Post here if you found this info useful, of if you have any other questions!

  • Something's wrong with my Adaptor

    My iPod mini's about 6 months old now (but it's the pioneer model), and most of the time I use the power adaptor to recharge the battery (the one that was provided in the box). For some reason every time I connect my iPod mini to the adaptor it just won't charge. Why's that? And can I get it serviced since I'm still under warranty? Help!!!!

    If something is wrong with your AC charger better let it be checked.

  • When I try to connect my iphone to itunes it will not work, but when I connect an ipod it will. This is telling me something is wrong with my phone I am jsut not sure what that is. Can someone help me.

    I was trying to update my music last night. But itunes told me it needed to be updates first. So I updated itunes, and my phone. But now when I connect my phone using the usb. It will not connect to itunes, all that comes up is a phone icon on my desk top(which doesn't allow me to do anything with) But when I connect an ipod it does connect to itune and I am abble to look at how much room is left, and the option to restore ect) . SO this tells me something is wrong with my phone it self. Does anyone know what I can do to fix this problem?
    Thanks.

    What did Apple tell you about what they did (or did not) find here?
    See if working on the main disk is any faster.
    USB2 is glacial, as I/O interconnects go.  And USB2 disks have been known to fail, or sometimes to drop back to USB1 speeds, too.  FireWire 800 is substantially faster than USB2, but still not as fast as the internal drive connections can provide.
    Put another way, start varying your configuration, and see which configuration changes (still) have the problem, and which don't.

  • What's wrong with my iphone 4 battery after ios 7 ?

    Literally:
    What's wrong with my iphone 4 battery after ios 7 ?
    I've tried all tuning tricks - nothing changed.

    This is not a current feature of any iphone, it never has been! I've heard that there are apps in the app store that allow you to transfer contacts but i'm not sure about anything else! Again you would need to look in the appstore, but again it will be very specific to that app if there are any at all!

  • "Something went wrong with running Nokia Xpress" A...

    hello there,
    out of the blue the nokia xpress browser on my asha 501 does not start anymore: it just shows the blue background with the globe icon. when i press the back button, the following message appears:
    "Something went wrong with running Nokia Xpress"
    - I have subsequently updated the phone software to version 14.0.4
    - I have run the troubleshooter tool under "installed programmes"
    ("Debug <Ovi Browser> connecting on port 2800")
    - I have restarted the phone
    nothing helped.
    is anybody familiar with the problem and might assist with some help?
    thanks in advance
    *chris.

    Hi Chris,
    I had the same problem but I managed to solve this today (04/12).
    Follow the steps below:
    Be sure to backup your files.
    1. Settings (configuration) > Reset phone
    2. Click OK. Wait restart your phone.
    3. Run Nokia Xpress and DON'T upload your backup.
    I hope that your problem was solved.
    And, after this situation, when your phone ask to keep the old files of the browser, click on No.
    Bye,
    Pedro HSB
    If this helped you, please, give to me a Kudo Star, so I can contribute further, but, if this didn't help you, contact me and we gonna solve your problem together.

    something went wrong with my apple tv and now it says that it is in retail demo mode. How can i fix it?  I have had it for more than one year without any problem

    To turn on/off retail mode, go to settings, general, legal.
    Do not open legal, just put the cursor there.
    Then, on the remote, type this sequence : right - right - left - center.
    The AppleTV should reboot.

  • Something is wrong with XMLsocket

    alright , I am using XMLsocket class, actrionscript 2.0
    (flash 8). I have set up appache server on port 1024, and I can
    connect without problems. But something's wrong with sending test
    data (I am using log file to check for incoming server requests)
    the code is this:
    quote:
    var theSocket:XMLSocket = new XMLSocket();
    theSocket.connect("localhost", 1024);
    theSocket.onConnect = function(myStatus) {
    if (myStatus) {
    TraceTxt("connection successful");
    } else {
    TraceTxt("no connection made");
    theSocket.onClose = function () {
    trace("Connection to server lost.");
    function sendData() {
    var myXML:XML = new XML();
    var mySend = myXML.createElement("thenode");
    mySend.attributes.myData = "someData";
    myXML.appendChild(mySend);
    theSocket.send(myXML);
    TraceTxt("I am trying to send: " + myXML);
    sendButton.onRelease = function() {
    sendData();
    theSocket.onData = function(msg:String):Void {
    trace(msg);
    function TraceTxt(strMessage:String)
    dtxMessage.text = dtxMessage.text + strMessage + "\n";

    Hello Alana,
    Do these songs/tracks sound okay in iTunes?  Have you tried resetting your iPod to see if that makes a difference?  To do this, press and hold both the Select (Center) and Menu buttons together until the Apple logo appears. 
    I would also try a different set of headphones/earbuds to see if that makes a difference as well.
    And if the problem still continues, try restoring your iPod via iTunes and reloading all your music back over to it.
    The last you may want to consider doing, if nothing from above resolves the issue is to rerip these tracks into iTunes.  Try importing them in a different format or at a different bit rate to see if that makes a difference.
