Hi Guys,
Just now my MBP 13 (mid-2012) is telling me to "service battery"
I read on Apple Support that this means I need to have an Apple Store or service center look at the computer and potentially replace the battery? I downloaded coconut battery and it is saying:
Maximum charge is 4387mah
Design capacity is 5770mah
1. So if I am doing this correctly... 4387/5770=76% capacity which would explain why I am getting this notification, correct?
2. If I take this to an Apple Store what is the solution? The Apple Store is about an hour and 10 minutes from me so I don't want to go down and have them just tell me it is fine and nothing needs to be done.
3. I have AppleCare coverage on this machine until August 2016 (just checked on their website). Would this cover the battery replacement if that is the solution?
Thanks!
