[QUOTE="professorjay, post: 423019, member: 32920"] My problem is my macbook will reach 99% and always say 'calculating'. The charger light is always orange, and I've tried keeping it plugged in for a few hours extra but it still says 99% and 'calculating'. Apple's recommendation to fully calibrate your battery is to run your laptop unplugged until it sleeps on it's own. This is when your battery is ~5% remaining I believe. Then let it sleep for 5hrs + (this will drain any remaining power your laptop uses for sleep). Afterwards plug it in and charge it. After it reaches 100% keep it plugged in for at least an extra 2hrs (you can still use your computer). I'm going to try this to see if it solves my problem. [/QUOTE]
