2009 MBP Battery 'Replace Now'

OllyM · 8 Oct 2009 at 11:14

Just noticed this in my menu bar on my 2009 Unibody MBP...

After 68 cycles?!

Has anybody else had this appear and then disappear?

Whether it disappears or not I'd be straight back to the apple store to get it looked at. That said I've seen it before on my older macbook pro, it flashed up one day then disappeared the next. I never followed it up as it was out of warranty and the battery still held a decent charge...

Where can you find out how many cycles the battery has done?

This will tell you the info you need.

Mine's done 108 cycles and is on 100%, so I'd be running to the Apple Store (with an axe).

iStat Pro will also tell you number of cycles.
