Help!

I used my MBP in the morning and as usual, the battery warning came up and the notebook shut down after some time. I've had this happen a lot of time which is fine. So I returned to the notebook at night and connected it to the power charger. I noticed that the LED on the magnetic connector stayed green and didnt turn orange. I thought this was weird but didnt pay much attention. Turned on the notebook and where the battery icon is, I get the message that "No batteries Available."

I removed the battery and re-inserted it and yet nothing. It was working just fine until the morning- how can it suddenly die out?? Pressing the small silver button on the battery doesnt cause any lights to flicker either- which is normally did when the battery was low on power.

Zap the PRAM and it should come back!

Forgive my ignorance, but how do I "Zap the PRAM"

I think he means clearing the PRAM, forgot the order or which keys to press so had it look it up on Apple's website. Hope this helps!

MacBook, MacBook Pro
1. If the computer is on, turn it off.
2. Disconnect the AC Adapter and remove the computer's battery.
3. Press and hold down the power button for 5 seconds and then release the button.
4. Reconnect the battery and AC Adapter.
5. Press the Power button to restart the computer.

Thanks- tried that but still no luck.

Normally, if the battery is dead, I can press that small button on the battery and I get a flashing light on the first circle. I'm not even getting that now.

Or call Apple. Probably your battery's a lemon.
