I have a late 2007 black 13" Macbook. Up until yesterday the battery was working fine.
I have a friend who has a late 2008 white 13" Macbook who has been having power issues. I wanted to see if it was a battery problem, or something else, so I put my battery in her computer. The battery worked fine, and would charge normally, and the laptop also worked fine running just off the battery.
However when I then put my batter back in my original laptop, it no longer works. It won't charge when it is plugged in, and if I unplug the adaptor, the laptop dies immediately.
According to the system profiler, it recognizes the battery and says its condition is Good, but not charging.
I have tried everything I can think of, including resetting the SMC and PRAM and ensuring I have the latest version of the SMC firmware, but nothing has changed.
The strange thing is that the battery still works perfectly in the 2008 macbook, and was working perfectly in the 2007 macbook until I tried it in the 2008 one.
What could have happened to the battery to stop it working in the 2007 macbook, and what can I do to fix it?
Thanks
