My macbook is the 2010 model and lately it seems that there has been a problem concerning the battery.
I realized its the battery and not the charger since I tested the charger that I used on other computers and they worked just fine.
I also used other chargers on my computer which ended up not working on my computer but they had still worked on other computers.
Right now, when I normally plug in my charger to my magsafe port, instead of the bright green light that I'm used to seeing, it registers a very faint green light.
On my computer it stated that the charger was plugged in but that the battery wasn't charging. After plugging a charger into another computer and back into my macbook, I am able to acquire the normal bright green light. However, the battery still remains unchargeable. Sometimes, however rarely, when my computer completely dies and plug my charger back into the magsafe port, It'll recharge after a day. The battery indicator would state that the battery was charging when I reopen my macbook. However, after taking out the charger for a few seconds and placing it back into the magsafe port, I am always greeted with the indicator showing that the macbook is unable to charge. I have already tried resetting the SMC and PRAM but nothing has worked. I also realize that it is indicated that the battery should be replaced soon, but is there anyway to fix this problem without having to buy a new battery? Also, I'm running Mountain Lion. You have my gratitude in advance.
