Adapter goes orange after green.

The adapter (plug in at computer) is green, then orange. My guess is, it's fully charged.
I unplug adapter, then the screen goes off.
Just like that.
Hmmm?

Orange means that it is charging. It switches to green when it is done. It initially starts at green while the battery is being analyzed to determine if it needs to be charged. Look at the lights on the battery itself while it is charging and you can see the current charge state.

Wifi Adapter Goes Missing After Working

HP Paviliion laptop running Windows 8 from factory recovery (2 times). Problem: WiFi works then adapter goes missing. Device Manager / Network shows only the wired card. Scan for new hardware yields nothing new. Wifi button shows toggle from Airplane Mode Off / Airplane Mode On OK. This is the F12 button (I mentioned this because on a MSI 6200 series laptop the wifi button and another are mislabeled). Could it be the wifi card going bad since I don't see the card in Device Manager? Thanks. Darryl

IMac DV slot-loading power button glows orange after shutdown, cant start

Hi,
I have iMac DV SE (graphite model) of 1999, 320MB RAM, 40 GB HD, running Mac OS X 10.4.7.
Everything seems to work fine, but when I go to Shutdown, it shuts down fine and power light goes off...Then several minutes later, the power button turns orange and stays like that for a few hours and then goes off again.... Then several hours later or the next day, I have a hard time getting it to turn on again by hitting the power button.. the keyboard (old iMac keyboard) power button never works to turn on the iMac (should it?) but when I hit it while in Mac OS X, it shows me the menu to shutdown, restart, sleep, etc...
Also, by PRAM battery seems good (I measured it at 3.6 V) and it seems to keep track of the date and time just fine, so I cant imagine it's the battery....
So in the past when this happens, it just keep hitting the power button and/or remove the power cord and re-insert, etc, and some combination of that after many tries the iMac finally starts up...
Any idea what's going on? I cant find any discussion of the power button going orange after a shutdown and the fact that my keyboard power button doesnt work to turn on the Mac...
Help...
Andrew

Ah.. very interesting... I'm surprised I couldnt find any info on the 'net about this orange power light...
Anyways, I found have some interesting stuff since...
1. On this last occasion when it didnt turn on, I was jiggling some stuff (plugging and unplugging the power cord several times.... then I tilted the iMac slightly and let it "drop" to jostle/jiggle it)... and after the slight "drop," I hit the power button and it turned on just fine... d'oh... I wonder if something's just "loose" somehow... I dont have a random shutdown problem, once it's turned on and inside Mac OS X, it works fine for hours and hours until I tell it to shutdown. hehehe...
2. Just last night, before going to bed, I shut it down and since it's plugged into a power surge, I turned the power OFF to the power surge, so now it doesnt have any power to it... so this morning, I turned power to the power surge, and hit the power button on the Mac and it turned on just fine! d'oh again.. hehe... so it almost leads me to believe somehow that leaving the power cord with electricity flowing to the Mac when the Mac is shutdown is "hurting" it somehow, and if there is no power connected when it's shutdown, it works normally (I think)...
Very strange indeed...
Anyways, I got this Mac second hand so I am wondering if this was a problem for the original owner... when I first got it , I knew the hard drive was missing, so I put a 40GB IDE hard drive from a PC and formatted it, etc... so not sure if the hard drive could cause a boot issue...
Oh, well, I guess I'll keep using this iMac until it no longer turns on.. lets see how long I can keep going like this ..heheh..

Power adaptor light flashing orange to green

starting this morning my power adaptor seems to have an issue. the light keeps flashing back and forth bewteen orange and green. and therefore the computer wont really charge. it will operate plugged in this way though.
last week part of my cord did get damaged. the little bumpy part right next to the plug that goes into the computer. the first little bump of the three somehow came off. there does not seem to be a hole or tear in the cord under where it was though.
what purpose does that section serve? is that what is causing my problem?
any ideas?
my computer is one year and one month old, grrrr no longer under waranty...

Hi Michelle,
Given the sloppy design of the iBook, including its power adapter, I would suggest you bite the bullet and buy a new adapter. Otherwise your iBook's DC board may be damaged.
Resetting the PMU helps, as does unplugging both ends of the pwr adapter, waiting for at least 1 minute and plugging it back in. BUT, since you're sure the cable is broken, GET A NEW ONE!
I had a similar problem with my power adapter for my 3-month old iBook, except that the light would suddenly not turn green at all. The cord and the rest of the adapter were intact. I was lucky I still had 7 months of warranty left and got a new adapter from Apple. So far everything is ok.
Good luck, Michelle!

Flashing orange to green?

Why is my power adapter cord flash from orange to green intermidtently? ... (about every 5 seconds)
The percentage of the battery is now at 97%, and it seems like it was taking a longer amount of time to charge up.
I also switched power outlet plugs, to see if it was just the plug i was using.
any suggestions? I've already read the power/battery disscussion page for this topic, but I am still not sure what to do.
thanks!

This same thing has been happening to me. It started after the 10.5.1 update. I get the intermittent green-amber flashing on the charger. I can never get over about 95% charge before this occurs. Not only does this thing not charge all the way, I can't get it to discharge. The laptop shuts off (no warning or anything) around 30% charge. I hope this gets fixed in a hurry. My Macbook Pro isn't very mobile at the moment.

Screen goes dark after dialing

When I place a call using my contacts or my keypad, the screen goes dark after hitting the green "send" button. It stays dark until I hang up. How do I get the screen light to stay on when I place a call?

This phone has a sensor if you put the phone to your face or even put your hand over to near the top of the screen it will go dark. There is a sensor to prevent false activation of the touch screen.
I found when my phone is working on the car adabter it goes dark rather fast when I make a call. I use a Bluetooth earphone most of the time with this phone. I don't feel comfortable holding it to my ear.
If I see the screen go dark and I need access, I simply run my finger up from the bottom of the screen to bring it back to life.
I am going to look in to this part of the phones operation a little more closely to see if there is anything else I can bring up about this...

My macbook air power cord glows orange vrs green what needs fixed?

my macbook air power cord glows orange vrs green what needs fixed? the battery is not charging now, but the power connector glows green briefly and then goes to a steady orange. is this a power cord issue, a battery issue?
thanks

The orange LED indicates that the battery is in the process of being charged. Depending upon how depleted the battery is, it might take 4 hours to completely recharge.

I have a first generation ipod shuffle and the light keeps turning from orange to green and blinking back and forth. What should I do?

I have a first generation ipod shuffle and the light keeps turning from orange to green and blinking back and forth. What should I do?

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

Blinking green light and then orange and green at the same time...

I have an Ipod shuffle that was working good before and I don't know why I let it one month and after when I connected it to the computer Windows and Itunes didn't recognized it. It seems to function good because I can listen the songs that were before in the Ipod, and when I don't have battery I connect it to the computer and it seems to charge because after I have battery. The only thing is that when I connect it I don't listen that windows recognize it (like when I connect my USB key) and Itunes neither. Moreover there is a green light blinking two seconds and after green and orange at the same time (little lights) during one second. I can't restore it because it doesn't appear in Itunes.
Do you know what can do that???
Thx

Faites ceci:
- Retirez le Shuffle du socle
- Cliquez sur Démarrer, puis Bouton droit sur "Poste de Travail" et prenez "Gérer" puis double-cliquez sur "Services et applications", puis double-cliquez sur "Services"
-Localisez "Ipod Service", double-cliquez dessus, et cliquez sur le gros bouton "Arrêter" (Statut de Service Smile
-Rebranchez votre ipod, sur le socle.
-Sous Windows, effacez l'intégralité de son contenu. Ou alors faites un bouton droit sur l'icone du "disque" puis formattez.
-Lancez iTunes
-Ce dernier va détecter l'ipod et va vous demander son nom, avec une case en dessous "Remplir automatiquement"
-Laissez cette case validée !
-Pendant que l'ipod se remplit (il convient d'avoir des morceaux dans la bibliothèque iTunes) allez dans longlet "Réglages" de l'ipod, sous iTunes
-Cochez la case "activez l'utilisation comme disque dur"
-Cliquez sur appliquer pour valider cette option !
Vous pouvez maintenant éjecter votre ipod (ne le retirez pas du socle, cliquez sur le bouton approprié sous itunes !) et voilà, tout fonctionnera à merveille !

Boot from your OS installer disk and run Repair Disk from Disk Utility.

HT1533 Ok so I have tried evey combination of restarts. It tries to boot up, the start up bar appears on screen, but the computer just goes completely after the bar is a third of the way across. Is is doomed?

Have you tried booting into the Recovery HD and running Disk Utility to see if anything needs fixing on the HD. Restart holding down Command+r and once it hopefully boots select Disk Utility>Repair Disk. If anything gets fixed click on repair disk again until you get a clean pass. Try restarting as normal from the Apple menu once done.
Do you have backup to restore from if it proves to be the Mac has a hardware fault?

ITunes 11.1 Airplay Problem: Icon goes orange

I'm using iTunes 11.1 with three Airport Express base stations for Airplay. Every hour or so the blue airplay icon in iTunes goes orange and the music stops streaming to the Airport Express. Reselecting it doesn't work, but if I power down the Express and then power it up again everything seems to work ok. An hour or so later the problem will reoccur.
This is very irritating. Any ideas?

I have this problem too, did you manage to sort it out?

I havent had the exact same problem as you but I am having a similar problem where lately I noticed when working in Pro Tools (mainly because I use my mac pro for audio work) or even when on the internet whatever it may be that my screen has been flickering a little bit or gets slightly glitchy.
Yesterday upon startup for the first time the screen went black. Had to do a force shutdown. Unplugged all external devices. Reset everything as well. Slowly checked everything was on the phone with Apple even during the process. Seemed to correct the issue. Then of course I get off the phone, restarted my computer and it goes black randomly again.
Rebooted fine. Checked all my hard disks internal and external, verified and repaired permissions on main drive and clone. Since then nothing yet...But I still feel its either the Video Card or the Monitor as everything else is fully operational.
I plan on taking it in to look at as my applecare is up in November but I cant point my finger on it. And really am trying to avoid lugging the mac pro and monitor in at the same time...(Not the easiest thing with lack of parking in nyc..)
If the display was dying I feel like it would have konked out already.
The funny thing is I have had to replace video cards and monitors in the past but this time I cant quite figure out what the **** is going on.
I am leaning towards the video card as I noticed it flickered a little when opening plug in windows in pro tools or multiple windows in sfari but it doesnt make sense.
Worst part is I cant do a hardware test cause for some reason this computer doesnt have the software installed. It does nothing when I hold down the D button...
I totally baffled but the randomness of this.

Screen goes blank after a few mins, no matter what I do

I have a slight problem: I ran an update, which brought me a brand-new shiny kernel and a brand-new shiny xorg-server. It took me a few days until I bothered to reboot my computer and after that things got hairy.
After a few minutes, screen goes blank.
I set a screensaver of my Gnome desktop to 2 hours, no effect.
Power manager sliders have exactly to positions: 2 hours 1 minute and never, neither one has any effect on this.
I said 'xset dpms force on', no effect.
Even when I try to watch a movie with mplayer, screen still goes blank after a few minutes (usually mplayer inhibits this kind of stuff).
Now, I find it really hard to believe that this could be any hardware issue, after all, if video card or display would be faulty, I would probably either get a picture on the screen or don't get a picture on the screen, not some unwanted screen suspend every few minutes.
So I have to assume it's a software thing. Kernel doesn't seem very likely to be the guilty one, so I guess it is that steaming pile of crap we know as xorg-server, which got upgrade from 1.6.1 to 1.6.1.901 (sounds like wannabe-1.6.2), to be take the blame here.
There is no 1.6.1 package in the cache or in any repos I checked, so hard to downgrade. Of course I could hack some pkgbuild from AUR and install that, but somebody told me that I would probably also have to compile drivers against that so if that's correct (is it?), then I would consider that as a last option.
Any ideas?
