Battery works perfectly fine but does not charge!! (HP Probook 4530s)

Hi
This has been happening for the past couple of days or so. My laptop works perfectly fine on the battery but when I plug in the charger, it says "Plugged in, charging" but the battery does NOT get charged. I ran HP Battery Check and got the following results in the charging and discharging situations:
I will be very thankful for any help you can offer!

Thank you for the reply Kalt. I have some questions:
1. How do I perform a hard reset of the BIOS on this laptop?
2. The battery does not even charge when the laptop is switched off. Which makes me think that it might not be a BIOS issue because when the laptop is off, the battery should charge on A/C power right?
3. The battery charging LED does turn "orange" which means it is charging... but the battery doesn't get charged. Furthermore, until 2 days ago the battery was still lasting at least 2-3 hours on a full charge. Do you think that the issue is not with the battery but maybe the charging circuit in the motherboard has malfunctioned?
I appreciate your help

My iphone 5 fell and got wet. it works fine but does not charge right. What do I do?

help me please i dont know how to fix it.
my lock button is broken so i can't shut it off or restart it.

Odds are pretty good you have hardware damage. You need to locate an authorized Service Cneter, but more than likely you are in need of a new phone.

My trackpad works perfectly fine but will not click anymore, without the clicking sound its hard to use

My track pad works 100% perfectly but it will not click, which makes it a little hard to work out where i am supposed to click and take a bit longer to work out what i am doing

Try cleaning around the edges of the trackpad
Also check your settings >Sys Pref>Trackpad and see if something changed.

TS1367 My charger connects with my macbook with a very faint green light (not the normal orange light) and can maintain the computer turned on but does not charge the battery.

My charger connects with my computer with a very faint green light (not the normal orange light) and can maintain the computer turned on but does not charge the battery. The power source to keep it on is the power adapter and that it's "Not charging" on the battery settings. And my charger seems to charge other computers fine.
The part of my mac where the adapter (L-shaped, magnetic) attaches is a bit damaged - a small piece of the white case/body around the part where the adapter attaches is broken off, but that's just an outer damage.
I don't know what's wrong with my computer, and if anyone has had a similar experience or knows what's going on, it'd be tremendously helpful!
Thank you!!

Hi Christopher,
Doubtful an upgrade would fix a hardware issue. If you are thinking of upgarding to Lion, best to do all necessary maintenance first.

You don't in the condition it's in. You will either have to get the phone replaced by Apple or pay a 3rd party to repair it.
there seriously should be more than two ways to solve this other wise apple is useless and we will never buy another apple product.
Seriously? It's physically broken!

My ipod works in itunes but does not appear in "my computer" after I changed the properties

My ipod works in itunes but does not appear in "my computer" after I changed the properties.
First off, I'm using Windows XP (and Mac SnowLeopard) Here's how it started. For some reason my ipod started showing up as a camera when I plugged it in. It works fine in itunes, though. But when I tried to access it from "my computer" it only
showed me the one and only picture I had on my ipod. I deleted that picture hoping it would no longer show up as a camera. When it still did I right-clicked on it in "my computer" and selected "properties". Under "autoplay" I
chose for it to 'not show up' or 'take no action' or some such deal when I plugged it in. I thought that would stop it from popping up the window that asks whether i want to 'open camera wizard' or 'open camera scanning' or 'open folder to view files' or 'take
no action' , etc. But now it won't show up in "my computer" at all. I also have a Mac with SnowLeopard. When I plugged my ipod into it my ipod doesn't show up in "finder" either! So basically my problem is not a mechanical one with hardware
or software; yht ipod still works fine in itunes. I just need to undo the change I made. I've searched all around my preferences, utilities, options, etc. It shows up on my "Device Manager" but not on "Disk Management".
Any help would be very much appreciated. Thanks.

Hi,
To show up in Windows Explorer, you can try placing the iPod into
disk mode.
Moreover, i recommend you to
restore ipod to factory settings.
If this issue still persists, locate to device manager, uninstall and reinstall USB Mass Storage Device driver.

Led Light on MageSafe Charger Does not light;MacBook Air Recognizes it but does not charge

So I've had my MacBook Air (Mid-2011) for over a year now. The reason I am posting this is because I originally had a 40W MagSafe "L" Shape that came with my MacBook Air. Well I accidently spilled Pepsi on it while it was plugged in and you get the gist of that. Well I had bought an 85W "L" Shape adapter and it works perfectly fine, no problems. I've had the 40W stored away for probably 5 months or so and recently got the itch to work on it and try to trouble shoot it. Being an IT student, I get a hunch to just take apart things and try to fix them. But anyway, I've reset the prongs on the L part itself, I've changed the plug in to the 3 prong AC instead of the "Duck Face" thing. I've checked for SMC updates and it told me my MacBook does not need it. Well when I plug in my charger, it is recognized immediately by my MacBook. But on the top where the battery level is, it says "Battery is not Charging" and also says "Power Source: Power Adapter". So I am a little confused as to why it won't charge. I let it dry out when this first happened in some rice but I am not sure that did anything for it. I also have cleaned it, like i said I reset the prongs on the L shaped adapter itself. I haven't on the other hand gone and opened it, just because messing with those adapters and any adapters can lead to you getting shocked regardless. So if anyone has any suggestions let me know, I would like to use this charger as a At home charger or my mobile charger when I go to school. Thanks!

"drying it out" does nothing as per the acid in the soda and sticky corrosive sugar and acid left behind.
Youve gone thru $100 worth of effort in repairing a $60 charger, and plan on more effort.
Either a used charger online would be a cheaper option and better than possibly causing logic board damage to your macbook Air.

I have 30 pin dice silverline ipod kit in my car and 30 to lighting cable and adapter plays audio but does not charge. Is there a fix

My 30 pin dice silverline ipod kit in my car worked fine with my old iphone. it charged and played audio. I bought both 30 pin to lighting (cable and adapter) from Apple store but it does not charge. It only play audio. I have verified that both adapter and cable are working fine. Is there anything to fix this?

Apple sells a 30 pin to lightning pin adapter - you can find it on the Apple on;line store - or Amazon sell 3rd party one - but if it didnt works with your 4S which also has a 30 pin input - there may be something else wrong

Since downloading latest OS (07?) on my 4G-S can't use regular charger. Phone blinks and bleats but does not charge. Can charge in car and from computer keyboard port. Much slower.

Since downloading os 7.1 to my Iphone 4G-S I have been unable to charge it on the regular charger. I can use my USB port on my keyboard and my car charger but when I hook up to my regular charger the phone blinks on and off and bleets little beeps and does not charge. Ipowered off and on again with no success.

No such model exists, therefore there cannot possibly be an issue with it.
If it works with other chargers, that would indicate a problem with the charger.

HT5569 iPad 2 (ios 7) has been working perfectly fine, but suddenly has ceased to connect to home wifi

My iPad 2 (ios 7) has been working perfectly fine for years. All of a sudden it's stopped connecting to my home wifi. The password is not recognised, even though it is the right password. I've tired the reboots and forget network etc. The renew lease option is not there, maybe because I reset all network settings. It's just puzzling. I haven't changed anything; my HP laptop is fine. Why would my ipad suddenly do this? is it just an ios7 glitch that apple haven't addressed yet?

If you are having WiFi problems it is necessary to isolate whether the problem is with your network or your iPad. Note: Do NOT consider your network to be blameless if some other devices can connect to it.
First, test your iPad on some other WiFi networks: a friends, Starbucks, Barnes & Noble, etc.
If it works well there then the problem is probably with your network. Try restarting your WiFi router by removing power for 30 seconds. If that does not help check for a firmware update for your router. If none exists which corrects the problem consider replacing the router.
If your iPad does not function well on other networks it possibly has a hardware problem. You could try Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings to see if that corrects the problem. If not, contact Apple Support or visit an Apple store for evaluation. They can provide a replacement if your iPad is bad.
If you need more help please give the make, model, and version of your WiFi router and how you have it configured.

Dashcode widget works in dashcode but does not deploy correctly n dashboard

My question is exactly as stated in the subject line. I recently was working on my first widget and was creating an RSS feed from AppleInsider (I know one already exists but I want one that I made) in Dashcode in XCode 3. Everything works perfectly fine in Dashcode and nothing is wrong when I runt the debugger but when I deploy my widget in Dashboard all I see is the normal widget minus the info button and rss feed and it is blank where the rss feed would normally be seen. All I can do is move the widget around. I have tried saving the widget and then installing it in my dashboard and every other possible combination and nothing seems to work. Any information at all would be greatly appreciated. Thanks a million!!

If I remember well, I think that there is a wrongly defined key (or totally undefined) in Info.plist that it required for the Widget to operate correctly. Check for the AllowNetWorkAccess key.
Also, you should check the log files for possible error messages.
