Hi, I'm a newbie in the Mac world. I got a problem with my new macbook. I noticed that the percentage of my battery keeps dropping even when I use the plug all the time. It drops from 100 to 95 in like 5 to 10 days and then begins to charge. I searched in Google and someone said it was normal for macbook battery. But I don't think that the battery being charged every week is a "normal" thing. I also searched in this forum but unfortunately got nothing. Would you guys please give me some idea about why does it happen and what can I do about it? Thanks a lot!
Got a tip for us?

It also doesn't hurt to use the battery every week or so to give it some charge discharge cycles, as well as to Calibrate the battery once in a while.
