Moorviper Posted May 26, 2015 Share Posted May 26, 2015 Hi Yesterday my Macbook was thicker and thicker. Thought to myself what crackles there? Looked at the windowsill and watched the the bag was getting thicker. So I opened the back to see what's going on. Applause Apple. The battery lasted 5 years, and was still 6-7 hours (it makes still even though it is thick) and then he gets obesity. Had someone anything like this ?

LouCioccio Posted May 26, 2015 Share Posted May 26, 2015 Yes it is common problem. My daughter, not sure which year, 17" Mac Book Pro went through several batteries while under Apple Care and some of our computer club members have had similar problems.
