AC adapter light not working

When charging my Macbook Pro sometimes the indicator LED light doesn't come on at all.  Everytime I checked when the LED isn't working the computer still charges, but I am not sure if when I leave it sometimes if it is charging correctly since the LED doesn't work periodically.  I am also wondering if this is an issue with the adapter, rather then the actual computer port.  If it is the computer port I don't feel comfortable with sending it out for repairs if its just a small issue.  I guess what I am trying to see is if anyone else has experienced this issue.  I would much rather go to the apple store and recieve a new adapter, and if the issue persists I can send it in for repairs.  Please if anyone has experience with the same trouble I have had let me know.  Thank you in advance.

May be the adapter is not working properly.
Take the MBP and MagSafe/Power Adapter to the Apple store  for evaluation.
For:
The MagSafe power adaptor LED doesn't appear to indicate the correct activity.
Reset SMC.  http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3964

  • Power adapter light not working

    The other day the LED light was stuck on green, even when laptop was not fully charged and even when I pulled it out of the computer!
    Now, the light doesn't come on at all and it doesn't seem to be charging the computer. The battery indicator on the screen is showing that it is connected, but when I unplug the power adapter, the battery is not charged.
    I've tried blowing out any dust/debris, and making sure all of the prongs are properly functioning. Any other advice?

    Stop by an Apple Store, if you can, and test using a different AC adapter. If that works, your adapter is faulty. If it doesn't, your computer probably is.

  • Mag Safe power adapter light not working?

    HI,
    I"ve had my MBP laptop and accessories since October of last year. Haven't had much of a problem besides battery fluctuation. Anyways as of late, the last week or so, whenever I plug in the magsafe adapter the light will turn on (green) then orange to charge then sputter off as if it's not on, even though my laptop say's its charging. Do I have a short? Or whats wrong with my adapter? If something's wrong where do I go to get it replaced because I can't afford to buy a new one. Please help!

    Welcome to Apple Discussions!
    I have also heard of the green/orange fluctuation being related to a defective battery. If you are also experiencing battery fluctuation, you may have a defective battery which is the real culprit. See if the battery fits any of the situations in this article:
    http://www.apple.com/support/macbook_macbookpro/batteryupdate/
    Your best bet would be to make an appointment at the genius bar if you have access to an Apple Store. There you could try a known good power adaptor and see if the problem persists. They should be able to determine if the problem is with the adaptor or the battery or possibly both.
    Good luck!

  • Nokia N8 Breathing Light Not Working PR1.1

    Many of my co-N8ers on a forum said that after updating to PR1.1 (013.016) the breathing light is not working anymore even though it is turned ON in the settings. When I tried it on my N8, I can confirm that it is not wotking!
    Can anyone try and confirm this one?
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    @kichIf it is the same error as my N8, then I'm afraid it's a hardware failure. The notification LED has been missing for almost a year on mine. I just finished the spring cleanup, starting with a 3-button (very) hard reset and loading the latest Belle Refresh with the Nokia Software Recovery Tool. This made no change to the LED's.
    Symptoms:
    * Breathing light not working
    * Notification light for SMS and missed calls not working
    * Charge indicator LED not working during charge - but it blinks 5 times when the shut down phone is connected to a charger
    A diagnostics software list the error as: ST_LED_CONTROLLER_TEST No Minor  [ 10 ]
    The phone is otherwise healthy and stable so I don't worry too much about the missing LED's.
    If it must develop an error while it gets older, this is not so bad...

    Hi:
    This is the only thing that I can think of that will work...see if manually installing the Vista 64 bit driver works on W8.
    Run this driver.  If it installs automatically, great.  If not...
    http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareDownloadIndex?softwareitem=pv-65991-1&cc=us&dlc=en&lc=en&...
    Go to the device manager and click on the network controller needing drivers.
    Click on the driver tab.  Click on Update Driver.  Select the Browse my computer for driver software option and browse to the driver folder that was created when you ran the file.
    That folder will be located in C:\SWSetup\sp34931.  Make sure the Include Subfolders box is checked and see if the driver installs that way.

  • Compaq Presario F767NR caps lock,scroll,touch pad blue light not working

    Hi,
    I have a Compaq Presario F767NR. It downgrade it to xp. All my drivers are ok. But caps lock,scroll,touch pad blue light not working though its function is ok.
    I think led is ok. I find that for the scroll lock when i press fn+num lk then the blue light works fine.

    I have the same problem and I think it started when I downloaded the SP2 for the Windows Vista. So probably it is not a problem of the laptop. I have an HP Pavilion dv9500 notebook PC.

  • My power adapter is not working at all

    Hello
    Recently, my power adapter has stopped working. I'm down to 33% battery power and no way to recharge! If I unplug the adapter and plug it directly into a wall outlet (grounded), it still does not work. No light on the adapter plug at all.
    What's up here? How do I fix this? Please help!
    ------------S

    If it won't switch on, and assuming that the battery isn't empty (and it can take up to 15 minutes of charging before it will respond), then have you tried a reset ? Press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds, after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

  • Iphone 6 plus led light not working in 8.3

    I updated to 8.3 a few days ago and have just noticed that my led light does not work.
    I backed up the phone, reset it to factory settings and it's still not working. Ay ideas on what I can do next?

    I have always used the iPhone's LED flashing alert to notify me when I get a call or text message. While I was on iOS 8 Beta 2-4 it was working fine. I did a clean install of the complete iOS 8 release and ever since then, the flash alert doesn't work.
    Sometimes it will work on incoming calls, but will not work on text messages. I've tried soft/hard rebooting, clean wipe and fresh installs, and pretty much anything in between. Now, today I got my 128GB Gold ATT iPhone 6 Plus, and it's the same thing. Updated to iOS 8.1, reset everything/deleted all contents and settings. Both fresh install, and iCloud backups and still no alerts on text messages, but now I get them on calls. I tried my girls ATT 128GB iPhone 6 and she has the same problem too. My old phone was a 64GB iPhone 5S and hers was a 32GB iPhone 5. Everything was good until the official release of iOS 8.
    I've tried searching for related issues, and haven't found anything since 2011 with a quick Google search. Most links just tell you how to turn the flash alert on but no new issues. All of my devices are on iOS 8.1.  I gave my father my 64GB 5S with a clean install and he still has the issue as well. So, that makes my iPhone 6 Plus, my girls iPhone 6 and my fathers iPhone 5S not flashing LED on messages and sometimes calls. There aren't any custom vibrations enabled on any if the devices. Has anyone else experienced this problem? Is it a known bug or am I just not doing something right here? i never had an issue before the iOS 8 release. Any help would be appreciated.
    Are you a developer?  IF so try asking in the developer forum.

  • 2014 X1 Carbon Adaptive Keyboard not working

    Hi There,
    I just tried my new x1 carbon 2014 a week ago, I was trying my adaptive keys and it worked accordingly the first time I tried the notebook.
    After I did some installation with windows 8.1 update and lenovo update, I noticed that the adaptive keys is totally blank.
    1. I did the adaptive keys setting but still not working at all.
    2. I did the factory reset / reinstallion but still not working at all.
    Can anyone help me regarding this matter? is it because the factory defect?
    thx alot

    did you get into the bios menu? if yes, and your touch strip still doesn't work then you have a hardware problem.

  • Dynamic port configured for FILE adapter is not working

    Hi,
    I have a simple dynamic port in an orchestration that writes a file to a file location. Here is the configuration
    ================
    FilePort(Microsoft.XLANGs.BaseTypes.Address) = "FILE://c:\\TestFolder\\Out";
    FilePort(Microsoft.XLANGs.BaseTypes.TransportType) = "FILE";
    ================
    When I run this orchestration, the dynamic port does not write the file to the folder, however I does not show any error either. It is always in "Ready to Run" state where the message is "Queued Awaiting".
    I tried all sorts of combinations like FILE:// FILE:\\ File: file:// file:\\ etc... and also without the moniker, just c:\.... I get the same problem.
    when I use a static port(subscribed to the same message) it works fine. When I use a static port ALONGWITH this dynamic port then both works fine !!! I receive 2 files.
    but when I use only dynamic port it does not work!!
    Anybody knows how to solve it.
    THANKS IN AVANCE
    PLEASE HELP
    Surya

    It could be becasue you 're not passing in the file name, Try something like this..
    SndPort_Dynamic(Microsoft.XLANGs.BaseTypes.Address)=@"file://C:\Test\Try\Out\Test1.xml";
    But even when you don't pass the file name, i was expecting the erro to be like:
    The FILE send adapter cannot open file C:\TestFolder\Out\ for writing.
    Details: The system cannot find the path specified.
    But try with File Name and restart the host instance after the change.
    Or use somehting like this:
    FilePort(Microsoft.XLANGs.BaseTypes.Address)=@"file://C:\Test\Try\Out\\%MessageID%.xml";
    FilePort(Microsoft.XLANGs.BaseTypes.TransportType) = "File";
