[QUOTE="pigoo3, post: 1605505, member: 56379"] The battery charge cycles seem fine. I'm thinking that if the battery was allowed to go to absolutely dead (not very good for the battery)…this could possibly explain getting that message regarding the time. But this would only happen immediately after the battery going completely dead. It should not do this any other time (as long as the battery has charge remaining)…unless (somehow) the battery got disconnected for a period of time. Whenever folks have issues related to power (which this time message would indicate)…I always suggest doing a SMC Reset: [url=http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3964]Intel-based Macs: Resetting the System Management Controller (SMC)[/url] As far as the display problems…maybe the display cable has gotten worn…or is getting pinched when the display is opened & closed. - Nick [/QUOTE]
