My Macbook Pro has recently started a strange behaviour. If I unplug the mains (and the battery is at 100% or in the 90s) after a min of usage it switches off (not in sleep mode nor has it shutdown properly). So what is just switching this off or is there a hardware fault? I checked the...

I am new to a Mac so excuse the questions 1) On a PC I can defrag or look at partitions. Can I defrag on my iMac 17" G4? 2) Can I also create new partitions in a Mac? Will I lose data by doing this. On a PC there was a product called Partition Magic which allowed you to create paritions...
