AppleCare and battery

Would I be able to get the battery replaced if it only lasts 2 hours? I bought it in 2014, if that means anything.

Thank you

If the battery is faulty and you have AppleCare, then Apple will replace for free.

However, a battery is considered as a "consumable" item, which means that a battery has not been replaced for free. If the battery is low, you will need to buy a new one. Similar to the purchase of batteries for a remote or a car, he eventually die and need to be replaced.

You will need to bring to an Apple Store for them to determine if the battery is faulty or just depleted.

Use THIS section to determine the number of cycles from your battery. If it exceeds the number of cycles in the article, then it is unloaded. If it is well below the number of cycle listed, it's may be defective.

Good luck

(Heads up, you said you bought the computer in 2014, but your profile says it's from 2012.) If it's your AppleCare from 2012 will have already expired.)

  • Tecra S2 - power and battery LED flashes - no start

    G ' Day at all.

    I have a TECRA S2 under XP SP3.
    Everything was fine until I went to a place of friends with her and plugged into the power supply and it lights up not at all and no LED.

    I removed the battery and then tried again and then happen to the power and battery LED flash together, but nothing else.

    Tried several times with the battery inside and out with the same results.
    I have stabilize power before removing or installing battery.

    Do not even have BIOS or a screen. I put the HARD drive in a caddy, and it's accessible.
    See you soon

    > Everything was going well until I went to a place of friends with her and plugged to the power
    Did you use the right adapter?

    To be honest, it looks like a malfunction of the power supply motherboard maybe electronic issue of power.
    the power indicator would start flashing amber if the AC adapter voltage is abnormal or failure of computer power supply.

  • Satellite Pro L50 - a: how to replace the memory, HARD drive and battery

    I just uploaded 2 new video from Youtube on the L50 - A. Satellite Pro

    The first is a tear down showing how to replace the memory, hard drive and battery (you can also clean the fan if it detects overheating).

    BTW why they made it so difficult to get just to the battery in this model?

    WARNING - proceed at your own risk and don't forget static precautions!

    Hope they help and if you have any questions let me know.

    Thanks for these videos. It may be useful to replace the memory, but I think that the owners of the laptop should not open the case. This may void the warranty.
    Be careful about this.

  • Clock and battery indicator went

    Hey, I've finally updated to OS X El Capitan last night. Everything goes a lot overall, I love the new features and the whole system runs a lot faster. The only problem I have is that since I've updated the clock and battery indicator are no longer visible in the status bar at the top of my screen. Does anyone else have a similar issue or know how to recover? I'm running it on my early 2013 13 "Macbook Pro retina. Thank you

    Note aside, is there a way to display images here? This is my first post so I am new on how it all works and I want to post a screenshot of what appears on the status bar.

    You went in the preferences-> Energy Saver system and provided for the option to display the status of the battery is turned on?

    Have you went into the preferences system-> Date time & -> clock and ensured that the option to display the date & time in the menu bar is turned on?

  • gauge the battery to the boot screen and battery on report menu conflicting Details about the level of the battery. The gauge from the battery to the Starter incorrectly displays the low battery level that prevent the macbook pro battery retina start

    gauge the battery to the boot screen and battery on report menu conflicting Details about the level of the battery. The gauge from the battery to the Starter incorrectly displays the low battery level that prevent the start of the battery. This happens on macbook pro retina 13 inches

    When I try to startup macbook pro retina in battery mode, it will fail to start showing low battery level and an indicator to recharge the battery. It does not start on battery. When I then connect via the power cable at startup (and check the battery level), monitor of battery in the menu bar indicates that the battery is charged to the top.

    It gets really frustrating and remove my ability to use the macbook pro retina as a truly portable device...

    Appreciate any help on this

  • Satellite L455 - plug-and - battery LEDs power LED and it flashes orange

    I have a Satellite L455, which worked perfectly for more than six months now, but two weeks ago he began to behave strangely.

    I turned off the machine normally in the evening I was going to sleep. In the morning when I turned on it it turned on, HARD drive and on power LED blinked blue for a few seconds then they are gone. Machine does not start. I tried to turn it on again and it does the same thing. Then I saw the "power plug on" and "battery on" LED flashes orange at the same time. I unplugged the power adapter. Both lights were continuous blinking but machine will not feed. I removed the battery for a piece of 5 minutes, then reinserted it and the machine has worked all day.

    I went he deleted off the power plug and the morning again it wouldn't start until the when I removed the battery for a few minutes then it works again. The battery recharges very well that when I remove and reinsert it even without connecting the power cable still lights up and works perfectly.

    Then, I removed the battery and the power supply Plug and you press the power button for 30 seconds to unload the machine and then return power and battery and it worked until I turned off again and shutting off the power and then it didn't once again.

    If I stop just of machine and do not turn off the power cord, then I can turn it back on to and work with the machine without hassle even for three days without interruption.

    What could be wrong? Any help will be really appreciated.

    Hi chidzungo,

    It must certainly be a hardware malfunction but he s strange why it pops up every day after you have closed the laptop. Do you use batteries and AC/DC to original Toshiba adapter? Have you connected external devices to your laptop? If so delete them before you turn on your laptop.

    What version of BIOS is installed at the moment? You should look on the Web from Toshiba website for an update. Update of the BIOS might also help and it s worth a try.

    Before you start reading the BIOS BIOS update instructions update [HERE: http://forums.computers.toshiba-europe.com/forums/ann.jspa?annID=60]

    Satellite L455 seems to be an American model, so the BIOS update can be downloaded from the Toshiba U.S. page but first check the exact part number:

  • VGPBPL9C large capacity battery and battery VGP-BPS9/B-Stock

    What are the differences between large capacity battery VGPBPL9C spec and battery VGP-BPS9/B of Stock

    The VGPBPL9C seems to be a battery 9 cells 6600mAh nominal. The common VGP-BPS9 battery is a rarted of 6-cell 4400 mAh battery. Basically, the improved battery has roughly 1.5 times more power than the stock battery. Find the real Sony brand seems to be quite hard to find among all third party replacements. Note, sometimes more large capacity batteries also have a small additional strap to accommodate additional cells while you might find a little battery that comes out of the laptop.

  • MacBook, lose memory and battery quickly

    Recently, I got a popup saying that the startup of my Macbook Pro disk was almost full. I did a lot of cleanup, but I always notice. My computer is losing battery really fast, going from 100% to 65% in less than an hour. I've cleaned enough 110 GB free space, I reset the PRAM and I downloaded an update software, just in case, but I don't see any change at all. In fact, every time I restart it says I have 110 GB of free space, but that number falls slowly more I use my laptop, even if I haven't opened. What should I do?

    I had this same problem. Have you tried to check your battery life? So I went to the store Apple to fix mine was in a critical situation. Because I do not have the AppleCare I had to pay a certain amount of money to get my battery replaced. Everything is good now.

    Good luck.

  • Microsoft Office Word 2016 and battery drain

    I have a macbook with OS X El Capitan air and recently installed microsoft office 2016, noticing a huge difference in my battery life.

    I use my macbook to 100% of load and have use of 2-3 days at the office until the next recharge... because the office installed 2016 that s is no longer possible, I have to recharge every night, and somedays carry my charger and keep once connected to continue working.

    It seems that the issue is Word 2016, because excel and powerpoint work as usual; but since the word is the program used mostly I noticed the issue and he has seen a few posts about this in the internet.

    Is it possible to get around this? Every walkthrough? Any bug fix any? Is anyone else noticing this same thing?

    Please answer.
