As indicated on macintouch.com, there is a batter excahnge program for the MBP. Apple is pretty quiet about the reasons, but says this is not safety related. https://support.appl…

Thanks. I've requested for my new battery.

Why can't Apple ever make a battery that they have to recall?

Battery swelling?? In fact my battery has a little 'give' in it. i.e. it can be slightly moved whilst it is in place. I did always that that the battery life was pretty crap. I thi…

Seems the range of batteries affected comes from after May as well My UK machine was purchased mid-June, & has an affected battery. Haven't seen any swelling etc. & the ba…

I just got my new battery too; anyone know if this new battery should be "calibrated" like the original one?

All Laptop batteries should be calibrated. Even cell phones from what I hear...correct me if I am wrong.
