Battery sporadically recharges even after a new battery was replaced for a macbook 13 inch 2009

The macbook battery won't charge sporadically, i replaced the battery but now  fear it is the actual magnetic power interface to battery, I have tried different cords with simalr outcomes.  Suggestions?

Hi. Sorry none of that worked. If I understand correctly. Your battery has run down and the mag safe is not charging, so it will not turn on. When you have the mag safe plugged in, do you see a green light showing on it? Did you clean the plug on the Macbook Pro? You can use a cotton tip dampened with alcohol to do this. You have tried other mag safe's and get the same results,right? You could have a failed dc in board. That is what the mag safe plugs into. It in turn plugs into the logic board.I had to fix a similar  problem on a Ibook. It would run off the battery as long as charged, but not off the mag safe.

    if this is the mid-2007 model with the nVidia 8600GT chip, it could be the fried video card issue. first you could give it some time to boot up and then ping the machine from another computer to see if it responds. if it does, it is very likely the fried video card and you need to take it in for a free motherboard change (3 years from purchase date).
    when i had the black screen i a bit hastily shut the MBP off and on quickly many times while it was actually booting up. side effect of usually quiet operation of the hard drive is it's very hard to tell what the MBP is doing if the screen is black. while HFS+ is probably capable of recovering from this, probably better not risk file system corruption.
    in my case, i would not even get a startup chime at first. had to reset PRAM for that. very likely when the video card fries, it invalidates some data there and some startup POST-type routine check fails.
    and that's about all there is to be done. they run a specific test at the service spot that is supposed to give some graphics error exception code which entitles you to the free motherboard swap.

  • Iphone 5 battery drains rapidly, I have turned off apps and location even purchased a new battery, is anyone else having this problem?

    Iphone 5 battery drains rapidly, I have turned off apps and location even purchased a new battery, is anyone else having this problem? If anyone knows how to fix please let me know. I've tried the hard reset and nothing works.

    There was a run of bad batteries for the iPhone 5. Apple will replace them if your phone qualifies and you haven't tried to fix it yourself. See: iPhone 5 Battery Replacement Program - Apple Support. Unfortunately, you may have disqualified yourself if you tried to repair it yourself.
    However, rapid battery drain is only rarely caused by a bad battery. A bad battery is usually diagnosed by a battery percentage that jumps randomly. See this for advice: http://www.overthought.org/blog/2014/the-ultimate-guide-to-solving-ios-battery-d rain

    Sorry you are having problems. First of all try Fifrefox's safemode.
    *[[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode]]
    If that works post back for further advice.
    Next step, if safe mode did not work.
    <u>First: Try a clean install, <sub>(you have had a none standard version installed previously)</sub></u><br /> that involves deleting the program files. Then if necessary try troubleshooting by creating and using a clean empty Firefox profile.
    See
    * this recent post [/questions/940399#answer-377134]
    * http://kb.mozillazine.org/Standard_diagnostic_-_Firefox#Clean_reinstall
    <u>Second: try a New Profile</u>
    *http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_Manager#Creating_a_new_profile
    * this will be an additional profile, it is still worth backing up any existing or currently working profile on a regular basis
    **[[Back up and restore information in Firefox profiles]]
    * Until you are absolutely confident about the repercussions I suggest
    ** always use an empty folder when creating a new profile
    ** never delete or rename profiles, just disable or remove shortcuts
    ** after creating a new test profile open it and check for any addons or plugins that may be have been included by default

    Hey dodie67,
    Thanks for the question. Sounds like your iPhone stopped responding to buttons, switches, or touchscreen input, so you'd want to go through the troubleshooting steps in the following article and see if that resolves the issue:
