Good call, thanks. I called AppleCare and they're overnighting me a new battery. As long as I return the defective one within 10 days (in the pre-paid box they're sending) there's no charge.On 21/05/04 11:49, "Hal" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
I just started having a similar problem in my 900mHz G3 iBook. It's only 8 months old and was working great until this morning.
When I woke it up this morning (after being plugged in all night, as
usual) it said there was no battery present. I tried resetting the
nvram (from open firmware) after trying to reset the power manager, all
to no avail.
Just out of curiosity, I swapped in the battery from my wife's 600mHz
iBook and it ran and charged it fine. My battery has just up and died,
apparently. It shows up as dead in the 600mHz iBook as well. Any ideas?
I hardly ever use it on battery power so I'm stunned that it would just
die like this.
Any info is appreciated.
Sounds like a defective battery. You should bring it back to your nearest
Apple store or Apple dealer and they should replace it.
Go Apple!
