[QUOTE="laurenelizabeth, post: 1688112, member: 365020"] Hi I need help, stat. Currently using a Macbook early 2008 model running OS X 10.6.8. I have got the X on the battery symbol, it says no battery is in my laptop. I just bought a new battery and it still says it, when pressing the button on the battery the lights come up green so I know it works. I've tried SMC, PRAM reboots. Coconut Battery says N/A. I have cleaned the battery and the spot where it is inserted. I bought this laptop second hand and I knew there was this problem, I can run it just off the power cord but i'm sick of it and want to try and fix the battery issue. I am already thinking of purchasing an entirely new laptop but I would like to fix this problem so I have a working laptop for awhile and so I can re-sell it to someone else. Here is what system profiler says:Battery Information: Charge Information: Charge remaining (mAh): 0 Fully charged: No Charging: No Full charge capacity (mAh): 0 Health Information: Cycle count: 0 Battery Installed: No Amperage (mA): 0 Voltage (mV): 0 System Power Settings: AC Power: System Sleep Timer (Minutes): 10 Disk Sleep Timer (Minutes): 10 Display Sleep Timer (Minutes): 10 Automatic Restart On Power Loss: No Wake On AC Change: No Wake On Clamshell Open: Yes Wake On LAN: No Current Power Source: Yes Display Sleep Uses Dim: Yes Battery Power: System Sleep Timer (Minutes): 10 Disk Sleep Timer (Minutes): 10 Display Sleep Timer (Minutes): 2 Wake On AC Change: No Wake On Clamshell Open: Yes Display Sleep Uses Dim: Yes Reduce Brightness: Yes Hardware Configuration: UPS Installed: No AC Charger Information: Connected: Yes ID: 0x0100 Wattage (W): 60 Revision: 0x0000 Family: 0x00ba Serial Number: 0x0056c554 Charging: No [/QUOTE]
