Macbook Pro Late 2008 not recognizing battery and not charging
Hello
i really need some help please
i have a Macbook pro 15" Late 2008 running os x 10.7.4
i will say briefly how did the problem begin and what is the problem
it stopped charging for some reason the magsafe light was (and still is) dim green and at the battery icon it said not charging but after a couple of hours that it was turned off and connected i found out it is charging really slowly
later on that week
i was using an app called DSLR remote connected to my camera i left my macbook on the table outside connected via usb to my camera waited on it and came back
when i came back my mac was out of battery
i took it in hook it up to the magsafe nada nothing not charging dim light
so what i did i knew my magsafe charger is ready to be changed so i bought a new one
tried it same problem
later on did an smc reset
it did turn on biw the fans are really loud the battery icon (x) and it said no batteries available
so i tried my old fastly drained battery it used to hold up about 1-2 hours then i bought another battery but that was in the past
so i tried both batteries smc reseting with both same result
the smcfancontrol app says fan speed 000 rpm and temoerature 0 C
and one more thing when the mac is off and not connected to the magsafe i click on the battery indicator light on the left side i get a flashing light (battery empty needs to be charged) when i connect the magsafe it stops working even when its off and while its just connected
so it is and SMC problem
it has been like that for the past 4 weeks or so
i really need some help
and im from israel so no apple genius bars around =_= and i have a good technical knowledge
Sincerely, Sari Hassounits not about solving or not its about trying to
i understand nobody wants to make any harm to my macbook
thats reasonable
anyway its a hardware faliure of some sort i'll need to check it my self but now im almost sure its not software because i've tried many things
my other option is to run it off a battery
the thing is my battery is out so when its attached the battey indicator lights do work (they are controled by the SMC) that might solve it too
thanks for replying really
its appreciated -
Ipod 1st generation not charging
Hi,
I've an ipod shuffle (1st generation) that is not charging, the shuffle is seen by my system and I was able to update it 1.1.4 firmware version today( I also restored it), but when the shuffle is connected to the high-power USB port it lights with the amber light to indicate that it's charging. However it never turns green and on removing it after >4hrs there is no activity from it and the battery indicator light does not light. It is out of warranty now so I was thinking of replacing the battery myself, however the fact that it's not charging at all would give me doubts that it may not be the battery and might be related to the circuit board.
Anybody seen this symptom before?

IPhone 3GS no longer recognized in iTunes and does not charge via wall
I upgraded my iMac to iTunes 9.2 when it came out.
My wife then upgraded her iPhone 3GS to iOS4.
Since then it is not recognized in iTunes and does not charge via the wall adapter.
I realize this topic crosses over with several ongoing discussions, but there are no 3rd party peripherals involved here.
The only major changes to our set up have been the itunes and iOS upgrades.
The battery is running down, any ideas to fix this, or other similar experiences welcome.Went to the Apple store and they replaced the cable.

my Macbook air mid 2012 suddenly turn off after a strange sound (like the sound òf a fuse has blown or something like that) and I also feel a burnt smell too while i am watching a film on the internet and did not charge the laptop at this moment. The sound was from the left of it, and now just a dark screen , even I tried charging it (still has green light at the charge tool). I bought it on 13st April 2013, not often use.
I love apple and i am so sad that a new product which i seldom use could be break so easily and outstanding. It's so late in my country now but i am too disappoint about the trouble so i am writing with hope of supporting from Apple and the community.
Please help , thank broYou will have to take it to an Apple Store for repair.

Battery heating up, now it is Not Charging
For a while I have had the issue of my macbook becoming very warm when charging, or in use. And it would often say not charging, then i would have to remove and insert the charger a few times before it would work.
Now it is not charging at all, and the battery is at 0%.If the heat is coming from the battery itself, you probably need a new one. If you're near an Apple Store or third-party service depot, they have a diagnostic they can run to determine if your battery has failed and needs to be replaced. Depending on your model, the battery may be something you can swap out, or would need to be done with a special tool.

Venue 8 Pro not charging?
I have not used this tablet a lot for the first couple of months I had it, then it was not used for 4 months I enjoyed it but mainly wanted it for travel. I used it for month while traveling in October it worked fine and put it up since then I got it out and put it on charge the same cord and charger that came with it and has worked in past. The white light will come on but after say ten mins goes off and the tablet is warm on the back, it has not charged if I try to reset by holding the buttons down I only get a couple flashes of Amber light. And when I plug the charger in no lights come on. Then if I wait like an hour and plug charger back in the white light comes on and again only stays on 10 mins or so and warms up the back. The warranty period is over as of 4-2, any thoughts, bad battery due to letting sit and battery going dead for so long? Tried three different cords but only have the one dell charger.
Dell supplied the wrong charging cable. The port is rectangular and the plug is trapezoidal so it can be plugged in either way, and if you plug it in wrong, you can bend or break the pin block. I handed mine to my wife to see which way she'd try to connect the cable and she immediately tried plugging it in upside down. This is a serious design flaw and Dell needs to recall them all and replace the connector. There's no way in this day and age of computing that it should be possible to plug in a connector upside down like this and then destroy the device. It's only a matter of time before every one of these Dell Venue Pro 8 units is damaged because of this issue. Dell screwed up the design and customers are paying for the mistake. This is 100% Dell's fault. They need to make it right.

Magsafe Charger not charging - when it lights up may not work
I started experiencing this a few weeks ago. Since then I have gone through 2 adapters.
The magnet works and everything, but it doesnt light up, and where that battery is up there it doesn't show any signs of recognition.
I have to wiggle it a little bit and apply some pressure to get it working.
Even then, it still sometimes doesn't work. It'll be green and say "Not Charging".
It doesn't always do that though. Sometimes it will charge. I have a new battery (from around christmas time) so it cant be the battery... i wouldn't think anyways.
Another thing, is when I get it charging, I have to lay it perfectly still. One little tiny bump or something will cause the light to go off and stop charging. I've cleaned the magsafe part and the part it lpugs into the computer. I have the same problem.

Magsafe not charging, no led
Hi,
My magsave cord broke, I worked till batterie 0%. Bought a new Magsafe.
But now the magsafe is not charging and the led light wont shine orange or green.
I did a smc reset, a pram reset, took the batterie out and push the button till it went off. Tried SMC 1.4 update but stated not needed.
Cleaned the connector pins on the mbp with alcohol.
So i figured the magsafe does not work, took the old broken one apart and fixed the cable. Gives power again, but also no light and no charging.
The batterie looks fine, apart from empty:

I have a Macbook Pro 17 inch, late 2008 (?) 2.33 GHz Core 2 Duo
Osx 10.5.8If I've understood correctly, you still don't know whether either of your adapters is working properly. Test them both with the 15" MBP you mentioned and see whether they work. If either one does, but it doesn't when you test it with the 17" machine and its new battery, then the logical conclusion is that there's a problem with the charging circuitry in the MBP -- subject, of course, to confirmation of the presumption that the new battery is actually good. You may have to visit a Genius Bar or authorized service provider to get that confirmation and have everything tested conclusively.

Magsafe light is dim green and not charging properly
Hello all,
I am hoping that someone could help me out with this. I have a Mackbook unibody from 2008 with the most curent Lion operating system. I recently started having problems with the charing of my laptop. I was using my computer one day to the point that the batery got used up and the laptop turned off. When I brought it home to charge the magsafe light turned on very dim green. It took 4hours for me to be able to start up my computer and has taken 3 days to get to 90% charge which it does not seem to go over. Bellow I have pasted information about my battery which is about 8 months old (new one i bought from apple). For some reason if you look down in the battery information, it's saying that it's not charging. I don't have apple care and money to fix it, any advice would go a long way.

Message was edited by: HostThat battery information looks decent, low number of cycles, capacity is about right for that vintage battery, condition is Nromal as it should be, and the voltage is right where you want it, 12 to 12.5 volts.
Have you worked through the knowledge base article on MagSafe connectors to see all is healthy on that end?
If that is fine, then it could be an issue in the charging circuitry in the MB. In which case it would be best to have an Apple tech at the genius bar run some diagnostics. -
Magsafe flashing or dim green - not charging etc. ----lower case plastic?
OK, here's a long story as short as I can make it. It will probably be confusing, as I don't have time to figure out the best organization of this info. I'm at work.
---SHORT VERSION---
What is the material attached to the lower case that the internals of the laptop are attached to made of? Does it serve a purpose other than holding down and stabilizing internals?
---REASON I'M ASKING---
I was replacing my IO/DC in board, as that is what was recommended by the Genius bar (no power with my old battery in, powered with no battery). I bought 2 other used batteries that didn't work with it either, both with supposedly over 90% health (but came shipped without much or no charge).
Anyway, last night I decided since the batteries didn't work, I would tackle the IO board. When taking it apart, I missed one of the instructions mentioning a 4mm hex head on the IO board, and broke off the bit that it screwed into of the lower case.
My question is...what is the material that the internals of the computer screw into? Is it plastic, or some sort of weak metallic material? I guess I'm asking if I could have made my problem even bigger by breaking the bit where it screws into, or if it is for "attachment" purposes only. I superglued it back on, and it stayed when I reattached the board. However, before I could get a strong green light powering up with no battery. Now it's very dim. However it will actually stay powered with a battery attached...but not charge. Sometimes it flashes, and sometimes it's dim green.
Finally (maybe), this is not a new IO board. I had to reinstall my old one, due to the fact that I'm an idiot and bought the wrong part (got an A1260 board instead of an A1211 board.) I just am worried since my symptoms have changed, that I may have created yet another problem. Now I'm waiting on another IO board, this time for A1211.
Just thought I'd see mainly if anyone knows what the material is made of.
Thanks!Nevermind. Pretty sure it's plastic.
Turns out there was a loose connection. I'd double checked everything last night, but must have missed it as I was tired and hurrying. After it didn't worked I opened it back up and found a part that was loose, snapped it in, and it wasn't better.
Today I opened it up, and the other side of the same connector was loose. OOPS.
It now powers up like it did previously. It even started charging the battery for a few minutes, but then it quit. Still I'm relieved it's at least back to "normal" and hopefully when the RIGHT part comes, it'll work. -
Yesterday, my Magsafe power adapter/battery was working fine. I had unplugged the machine last night to do some work, and I left it unplugged all night. It held a good 90% charge over the night, and after using it for a few hours I wanted to plug it back in. I noticed the normally bright amber light on the Magsafe did not come on, but a faint green light.
The machine says "Battery is not charging", but no "Service Battery Warning has shown up. I also attached an image of my results from Coconut Battery, just not sure what the numbers mean.
Any ideas?I reset the SMC, nothing changed, I took out the charger to clean, but there wasn't anything dirty.
BUT as soon as I plugged the MagSafe out, the power percent jumped from 37% to 47%. Still not charging, I am very confused on how it charged?? -
Macbook Pro Mid-2010 15" is not charging with dim green light
Hi all,
I have spilled a bit of water on the keyboard of my Macbook Pro this Monday. It continued working just fine.
So, I took it home, and 2h later, when I pluged the charger in, the light turned into a very faint/dim green light and it was not charging anymore. It does not consumes battery power, because it's plugged in the outlet, but it does not charge either (says "not charging").
I have tried the following:
Plugging it in to a different outlet
Trying other MagSafe chargers
Making sure it's the correct charger (85w)
Resetting SMC
Resetting NVRAM
I have opened the back, and although I could not dismount it anymore because the lack of appropriate screwdrivers, I could find no sign of humidity or water damage.
Checking the system information page in the MacOS, I could notice that, when the charger is plugged, amperage information gradually progresses from ~ -2000 to 0.
And it does not seem to recognize the charger. See below:
AC Charger Information:
Connected: Yes
ID: 0x0000
Wattage (W): 0
Revision: 0x0000
Family: 0x0000
Serial Number: 0x00000000
Charging: No
Do you guys have any other suggestions?If you are lucky, the power adapter is faulty. I suspect that there are problems inside the MBP. I still advocate a trip to an Apple store genius bar. Your MBP has a hardware issue and they (Apple) can diagnose it and tell you exactly what will be required to repair it.

Mid 2010 Macbook Pro battery will not charge after plugging in firewire cable shut down computer
I have a mid 2010 15" Macbook pro with Lion installed.
I was running off battery, and I went to plug in a firewire cable, not plugged into anything, and when I inserted it, the computer shut off.
The computer would not turn on again without being plugged into the AC adaptor. The magsafe charger shows green, but the computer says not charging. The battery is showing 57%, but the indicator lights will only light up when AC charger is connected..
I have let it sit off, and plugged in for a couple hours, and nothing chages, and let it sit overnight not plugged in, but nothing.
I have read other forums about the same issue,, it seems like its a common issue, and some have said what it could be, but no one said what it IS.
I have tried resetting the SMC and PRAM, but to no avail.
When i plug in the AC adaptor, the computer immediately turns on (which I find kond of funny), and I am able to turn it off normally, and it will stay off, and I can also turn it on if the charger has been connected from pervious.
