[QUOTE="pigoo3, post: 1352196, member: 56379"] It's possible that you have a defective battery...and on the 2010 MacBook Pro's (if I remember correctly)...have the non-user replaceable battery. With a newer MacBook Pro like this...with low battery cycle count...you really shouldn't be having this problem. I would definitely go to the Apple Store & have them check it out...and if you're lucky...they may replace the battery for free (assuming the battery is the problem)...even without Applecare. since this sort of thing really shouldn't be happening. If you go to the Apple Store...please let us know how things turn out.:) Thanks, - Nick p.s. When you go to the Apple Store...be nice:)...they're more likely to "do you a favor" if you're nice.:) Just mentioning this...since some folks go to the Apple Store roaring & growling like a bear...making all sorts of demands...and that many times doesn't work.
