    MBP 2015 battery replaced - machine now only works when plugged in :/

    Hello, I've just installed a new battery on my old macbook pro (early 2015 intel based). I had done this once before with no issues so I felt confident, but this time it did not go as planned. The computer now only works when the charger is plugged in. As soon as it's unplugged, it shuts down...

    Hi all! I recently noticed that my MacBook is draining 2-5% per night in sleep mode. It didn’t happen before, I didn’t install any new applications or something like that, but I connected my iPhones several times in order to download music there by wire. After that, an allegedly connected...

    Battery replacement - or new watch?

    I have a Series 4 which I’ve owned for 3.5 years now. It still does everything I need but, predictably, the battery life is starting to become a problem near the end of the day, with battery health currently at 81%. Apple will replace the battery for £80 (I don’t fancy using a third party...

    Battery drain during sleep on M1 Pro

    Hi all I closed the lid on my MacBook M1 Pro (14inch if that makes a difference) yesterday evening. Safari was the only open programme. I don't have wifi at the moment so it wasn't connected to wifi, so it wasn't getting mail etc. When I opened it in the morning it had drained around 15% (see...

    Can I replace the battery in a Siri Remote 1st gen?

    Is it possible to replace the battery without breaking anything? Or is it glued (?) shut forever? If so, how about recycling the battery? I've had this remote for almost six years, so no wonder the original battery is worse for wear by now. Still, the remote works fine.

    MacBook Pro 2019 i9 lasts less than an hour?!

    Hi guys, After upgrading to Ventura, I was working one evening on my couch when I saw this on my touch bar: 30% left with 16 Minutes remaining... So a short calculation 16min / 30% = 0,53min/% = 53min of battery life?? I know that the battery is not that great and I saw threads with people...

    MacBook Air 2015 (13") replacement battery? Anyone done one lately?

    my 2015 Air (13", 8gb, 128Gb) actually sat in a warehouse for three years before I picked it up in Oct 2018 "as new" (the story was they'd been bought by local govt for a project that never happened). I knew it was a risk but actually it's lasted really well into Jan 2023. The battery cycle...

    Does Apple still replace the battery on a 2015 MacBook Pro

    Hey everyone, my apologies if this question has been asked before. I need to service my 13 inch 2015 MacBook Pro. The computer is working fine, although I need to service the battery since its nearly 7 years old. Does Apple still service this machine or should I look for a 3rd party repair? :)

    My MacBook's battery seems to be swelling cause it’s lower lid is out of place, it’s no longer firmly closed! Might a possible explosion be something to be worried about?
