[QUOTE="6string, post: 1078447, member: 120039"] Welcome to Mac Forums. This is not normal... so, I would reset the SMC [url=http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3964]Intel-based Macs: Resetting the System Management Controller (SMC)[/url] then go through another battery calibration [url=http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1490]Apple Portables: Calibrating your computer's battery for best performance[/url] When you calibrate, be sure after fully charged to leave it plugged in for a further 2hrs. I'd also call Apple, explaining your battery health, and see what they suggest. As for the Apple store, if there is one near you, they should be able to test your battery and replace it for you. I don't see why they wouldn't be able to do that (even if it is in Turkey), unless it is an Apple reseller that doesn't have a service section, or carry spare batteries. [/QUOTE]
