[QUOTE="Sticks, post: 1740456, member: 336963"] I had the same problems with replacement batteries and waking my macbook up from sleep. Try this in oder: 1.) Repair and verify Disk permissions. 2.) Reset the NVRAM/PRAM. 3.) Reset the SMC. If you need a good replacement battery for your older MacBook Pro, try ifixit. I've gotten mine from them for my late 2008 MacBook Pro, and they seem to work fine. It seems replacement batteries that are not from Apple need a little jump start like I mentioned above. I hope this helps. Sticks [/QUOTE]
