Hi McOwn26,


If you have any bluetooth items connected (keyboard, mouse, AirPods, etc.) make sure they're off or disconnected. If those devices are active they will wake the MacBook Air.


Thanks.

Hey mcOwn26,


We'd recommend reviewing this article as it provides steps to help resolve battery related issues: Get help with your Mac laptop battery - Apple Support


"Check Battery Health

Choose Apple menu  > System Preferences (or System Settings), then click Battery. The Battery information shown here includes Battery Health:

  • Normal: The battery is functioning normally. 
  • Service Recommended: The battery's ability to hold charge is less than when it was new, or the battery isn't functioning normally. You can safely continue to use your Mac, but if your battery needs service or its lowered charging capacity is affecting your experience, get your battery evaluated at an Apple Store or Apple Authorized Service Provider, or contact Apple.

Battery settings in macOS Ventura

In some earlier versions of macOS, battery health might be reported as Replace Soon, Replace Now, or Service Battery, and might appear in the battery status menu instead of Battery settings: Press and hold the Option (or Alt) key while clicking the battery status menu  in the menu bar. 

Some third-party apps also report battery health conditions, but the data they report might not be accurate or conclusively indicate diminished system runtime. It's best to rely on the battery-health information reported by macOS.

Resolve battery-charging issues

The battery status menu  in the menu bar shows how much charge your battery has, whether it's currently charging, and whether your display or any apps are using significant energy. When your Mac is connected to power and using optimized battery charging in macOS Big Sur or later, this menu also shows information such as whether charging is paused and when your battery will be fully charged. 

Battery status menu

Occasionally your battery might not show a full charge (100%), even after the power adapter has been connected for a long time. This is optimized battery charging, which helps prolong the overall life of the battery. If charging is on hold and you need your battery to be fully charged sooner, choose Charge To Full Now from the battery status menu .

If your battery isn't charging, make sure that you're using the correct power adapter for your Mac. If the power adapter isn't rated for at least the wattage that your Mac requires, it might not charge your Mac reliably. If you're using the correct power adapter, make sure that the power adapter isn't at fault:

  1. If your USB-C power adapter isn't charging
  2. If your MagSafe power adapter isn't charging
  3. If your battery still doesn't charge:
  4. Shut down your Mac, close its lid for 30 seconds, then try to charge again.
  5. If you're using an Intel-based Mac, it might help to reset the SMC.
