Since my Mac turned two years old last month, I should be worried about a computer repair. According to my Mac, its battery “isn’t functioning normally,” and I have to take it “in for service.” ![]() I suspected that something was wrong with the battery, but I don’t really use my laptop as much as I used to therefore, I decided not to worry about it until the machine simply died whenever I took it off the charger – tat is, until I got this message today after waking the Mac up from sleep. And, while some of it helped a bit, I’m not even getting half of what I did when the machine was brand-new. I’ve tried everything to fix it: calibration (which did help a bit), installing an SSD that runs cooler (for less fan use) and draws less power (no moving parts), to completely reinstalling OS X. ![]() For a model that was originally claimed to achieve up to 10 hours per charge, the four hours that has been my average over those months is truly unbearable. For the past few months, my 2010 13-inch MacBook Pro has been exhibiting horrible battery life.
