My TiBook shows 0% on battery life. How do I know if the battery is dead or there is a connector problem between batter and computer. Please help!

Unless you put a different battery in or put the battery into another Ti there is no way of telling which is at fault.

You can get a guess if you go to the About this Mac, More Info, Power and look at the cycle count. Anything above 500 is getting into elderly territory.

I can't find cycle count under About this Mac/More Info/Power. But since I had been using this battery for 3 years so I guess it's time to replace it with a new battery. Thanks a million.
