"Battery not Charging" on a new MacBook Pro 15''

The battery of my new MacBook Pro 15'' is not charging when plugged in. The battery is down to 4% and the battery status bar shows "Battery not Charging".

If this is a new MBP and you purchased it from an Apple store, you have a 14 day period in which to exchange it for a new one (or a refund).  If you purchased st from a reseller, their return policies will apply but the MBP should be fixed under the warranty provisions.
Ciao.

  • What is the reasonable battery count cycle for a new macbook pro?

    what is the reasonable battery count cycle for a new macbook pro? I just bought it and i found that the count cycle for the battery is 6, is that normal?

    First off, a MacBook Pro is not a Power Mac.  Power Mac is the nomenclature for Apple desktop machines prior to mid-2006.   Mac Pros also are desktops, but later than mid-2006.    http://www.apple.com/batteries/ covers Apple notebook batteries and other battery performance.  I've asked this thread be moved.

  • HT3775 What codec do I need to play video that is called .avi.  It will not play on my new Macbook Pro.

    What codec do I need to add to play a video that is called .avi
    It will not play on my new Macbook Pro since I put it into the movies section of my launchpad.  When it was on the desktop It worked fine.  I moved it back to the desktop and it still does not work.
    The error message says  The document "   .avi" could not be opened.
    A required codec is not available.

    Download VLC Media Player which plays anything you throw at it and  Perian (AVI and FLV support).

  • Trackpad not working on brand new Macbook Pro 15" not retina,

    I've just got from UPS my new Macbook Pro 15" not retina. It's the basic model, without upgrades.
    I've plugged it in and turned it on to go through the setup assistant, but I had to do it with the keyboard and an external USB mouse, because the internal trackpad is not responding at all. Is it normal?
    Thanks!

    That was the first thing I did. They told me that it was normal, but I don't believe them. They told me to wait until installation was complete and perform updates, and try after that. That's what I'll do, but I suspect I'll have to have it replaced.
    Right now I'm migrating my old mac to this one. I'll update as soon as migration is complete.

  • ITunes will not load to my new MacBook Pro

    Transferred everything from MacBook to new MacBook Pro. Everything is working except iTunes. Restarting, disinstalling, and reinstalling makes no difference as iTunes starts checking the iTune library and then displays the message "iTunes quit unexpectedly" allowing you to send a report to Apple.

    how did you do that ?
    i've found the most successful method to transfer an iTunes library from one Mac to another is this:
    connect the two Macs with a firewire cable, boot the source Mac in _*Target Disk Mode*_, and copy the entire iTunes folder (not just the iTunes music folder) from <MacintoshHD>/users/<yourname>/music on the source to <MacintoshHD>/users/<yourname>/music on the target (overwriting the iTunes folder in place there).

    your profile suggests you're on 10.6.3. if that's the case, i suggest you do this:
    (a) download the [_*Mac OS X v10.6.4 Update (Combo)*_|http://support.apple.com/kb/dl1048]
    (b) repair permissions using *disk utility* and reboot your Mac into _*safe mode*_
    (c) run the combo while in *safe mode*.
    (d) when the updater is done, let your Mac reboot normally
    (e) repair permissions again
    please post back with results !

  • USB net stick will not work and not recognized by brand new macbook pro lion

    Hi and thank you to anyone that can help!
    I just bought a new macbook pro with OX 10.7 Lion the other day.  I have an Alcatel x220 USB internet net stick that I used to use with my previous computer with Windows 7.
    When I insert the usb stick, the setup driver is supposed to come up, so I can install it on the Macbook.  But nothing comes up, and the macbook does not even recognize that I have inserted the net stick.
    I also downloaded the program, and the drivers, and still nothing.  The apple people tried fixing it for a few hours today, and they can't figure it out either.  Same with the cell phone company that provides me with the net stick.  No one has any idea how to fix it.
    Basically, anyone have any idea how to get the USB net stick Alcatel x220 to work with a new macbook pro OS Lion 10.7?!?!?!?!?  This is driving me crazy, and I would really appreciate anyones' help!  Thank you!!
    Daniel

    thanks I appreciate your response.  Yeah I read something about the 64 bit problem.  I found this link and at the bottom there is a driver update or something to make it work with 64 bit.  But I can't seem to get it to work right, and even could the apple tech people.  This is the link:  http://www.alcatelonetouch.com/global-en/products/mobile_broadband/ot-x220.html
    Also, do you have any idea which USB sticks there are that are compatible with the 64 bit Lion?
    Thanks again

  • Logic Studio 9 Not installing on a new MacBook Pro

    I just purchased a new MacBook Pro (Retina) running the Mountain Lion (10.8.3). When I try to run the installer i'm being told that I can't run the installer because Power PC Applications are no longer supported even through the discs indicate it is a Universal App.
    Any idea what gives?? I was able to install it on another MacBook Pro I got last year.

    Last time I checked Pacifist, it allows the user to extract the component parts out of a package.
    Have they now updated it to allow for Pacifist to actually run the Installer Script, too (in such a way as to duplicate the action of the original Installer script)?
    I think that you will find that it has done so for some time, but it certainly does now:

  • Brother Printer HL-5250DN not working with my new MacBook Pro - HELP

    Hello there, I just purchased a new MacBook Pro - I've had to use PC (yuck) for work and had an IBook which was great until the dog knocked it off the dresser ...... Anyway, so I've replaced it with the Pro and love it - of course. Except......
    My problem is this Brother printer (HL 5250DN) which has been an absolute workhorse, but try as I might I can't get this Pro to print - unless I physically hook it to a USB port and print, which defeats the purpose of having a wireless network allowing me to print from anywhere.....
    I have tried suggestions from previous posts (unzipping the gz files - resetting the printer) but still nothing works... Any other suggestions - I'm going nuts here and Brother help line can't seem to give me a solution that works... HELP..... I really want to get going (New Years Resolutions and such) on my new projects and am absolutely grounded with this thing....
    MacBook Pro Mac OS X (10.5.5)

    Check the Dell website for compatible printer drivers you can download and install.
    Once the drivers are installed, open System Preferences > Print & Scan > Print
    Then click + to add the printer.
    ***  When you post for help, please state which OS X is installed.
    If you aren't sure, click About this Mac from your Apple menu 
    Troubleshooting advice can depend on that information.

  • Macbook Pro battery not charging after getting new charger

    Dog ate through my Macbook pro's charger, so I went to the apple store and bought a new charger.  The big one, that states it is for Macbook Pros.  85w, I think?
    Anyway.  The Pro runs on the charger, but its battery is not charging.
    I suppose it is possible the battery just up and died, but that would be a heck of a coincidence that it happened the moment I got a new adapter.
    Do all adapters labelled for macbook pros charge all macbook pro batteries?

    I had recently the same issue : my battery didn't want to charge anymore. I bought a new charger. Same problem. The battery didn't want to charge (a message near the battery icon at top right of the screen : "battery is not charging").
    I tried the SMC thing. Ever the same problem.
    I checked I got the latest firmware for my MacBook Pro Unibody mid-2009 (with the non-removable battery). I got it.
    My battery was less than 2 years old and got only 138 cycles.
    And the green light on the charger was not so shining as usual.
    Before going to an Apple Store, I just tried to clean my MacBook Pro power connecter.
    And... It works !
    The Power connector was just dirty.
    Now my battery is charging again.

  • What appears to be a battery or charging issue with my MacBook Pro

    I'm hoping someone can help me troubleshoot this situation... I have one of the earlier models of the MacBook Pro (Silver keyboard) and am having issues with it. It normally sits in my office and is plugged in but I took it on a business trip recently and it started acting oddly. Suddenly it didn't seem to want to hold a charge. When I had it plugged in it showed as "not charging" in the menu bar but was still running properly. It seemed the battery couldn't get past maybe 12% charge. Anyway, once I returned home it wouldn't turn on at all. The light on the mag power adapter is not on but I did see a spark when I plugged it into a socket. The battery button flashes fast for a few seconds when I push it. I'm sort of assuming that it is either the battery or the charger but any thoughts on where to start? If it is the battery shouldn't it still power on when plugged in? I have left it for a full 24 hours "charging" and so far nothing. Any help appreciated!

    I'm sure I need one anyway so I'll likely do that regardless... I'm wondering if anyone can confirm that the light on the mag adapter wouldn't be lit up if it's a battery issue so I can rule that out though

  • Elements 4 will not install on my new MacBook Pro

    Bought Elements 4 in 2007 for my previous Power Mac and now just upgraded to a Macbook Pro and the program won't install .
    Get the message that this version no longer supported for new the Intel Chip Macs. I know the version is old but worked perfectly well for my purposes.
    So do I just chuck that money away and fork out for another proggie?  What is the next version?
    Thanks

    Yes, you need a new version, one written for intel macs. PSE 6 is the very oldest than can be coaxed to work in 10.8, but PSE 11 is the current version. But then August is usually not a smart month for buying PSE.

  • 2 different expresscard/34s with 2 firewire 800 ports are not fully recognized on new macbook pro 17" under lion

    We have 2 expresscard/34s, a Belkin ec1394b2 and a Startech "FireWire 800 ExpressCard". Both are "reported" to suppport OS X but neither does more than show "PCI FireWire 800 ExpressCard" in the available interfaces list in Network Preferences with a status of "Not Connected". In the System Information report under "FireWire Device tree" it shows the built-in FW 800 port as "FireWire Bus"  with a drop down arrow which expands to the proper hard/software dtails and then "FireWire Bus" with no dropdown arrow, no more info.
    Now that I have them I see no reference to mac or OS X but I've seen a number of reviews of these cards from OS X users who claim to be using them happily. It's a long weekend so everyones tech support is gone gone gone. Any suggestions?

    A) It seems your problem is an hardware failure. It happens and I don't think the way you use Firewire devices is the cause of that problem. It's just bad luck. That said, it's probably a good thing to use the power supply of your hard drive instead of bus-power.
    B) If you want a new computer and you don't need something portable, I think the iMac is an excellent choice for the price. Over a Macbook Pro, you'll gain a bigger screen, FW400 port, etc, and you'll pay less than if you buy a laptop.
    C) If you still want to go with a laptop, you can hook the Duet to your hard drive but I don't think the bus will be able to power both devices. Therefore, you'll absolutely need to use your hard drive's power supply.
