Apparently, I recently started to suffer some battery-problems.
stats:
Macbook Pro 15" unibody (A1286 - oct. 2008)
Charge Information:
Charge remaining (mAh): 3807
Fully charged: Yes
Charging: No
Full charge capacity (mAh): 3869
Health Information:
Cycle count: 212
Condition: Normal
Battery Installed: Yes
Amperage (mA): -5
Voltage (mV): 12504
Problem:
Since a few weeks, my battery seems to be growing (in size). I noticed it because the battery-cover isn't in place anymore when I close it down, where the cover is in a tight fit when the battery isn't in the macbook.
Next to that, there's too much presure on the (downside of the) trackpad. Trackpad works perfectly without the battery in. I CAN'T click anymore when my battery is in, except when I press really hard on the really bottom-left-side of the trackpad. Adjusting the trackpad-pressure with the trackpad-screw only works without the battery in the laptop.
Is there any way I can fix this? Or suitable workaround?
Tried solutions:
I tried to loosen the trackpad-screw. Didn't work.
I tried and retried to refit the battery to make sure it's assambled probably. It seems to be right.
Other questions:
-> Is there a way to select words/portions of a text without clicking on the trackpad?
-> Can anybody check with his MPB if my battery really should be flat, or that it's normal it's thicker in the middle?
any help appreciated.
