Hi,

I've just bought a new rMBPro last week, but I have a small problem with the battery indicator. It says it is fully charged when it is not. Do you know how I can reset it? Thank you!

OS X will only charge the battery to 100% if you plug it in when it has less than 95% of a charge. If you plug it in before it dips below 95%, OS X will simply keep the battery at the percentage that you plugged it in at.

Here I have another Mac which displays correctly. So there should be something that may be resettable.

The solution is simple .... uninstall that tool that you are using to measure battery health.
You already have one built in.
No need to reset anything.
