CECHZC2E controller not charging

Hi, My PS3 sixaxis controller doesn't seem to want to charge. It's NOT a battery issue - this happened before, and I replaced the battery, and it then worked fine. It's now been some time since I've last used it. When I took it out it was completely dead, so I tried to charge it and it wouldn't charge, I checked the battery, and it was dead.  So I bought a brand new battery again, and after I replaced it, the controller works, but won't charge.  When I plug it in, the charging animation (on the tv) briefly appears, then disappears and gets replaced with a dash symbol.  I also tried charging it from a common wall USB charger, and that doesn't work either, the LED on the front doesn't light. Is there anything I can do, or is this thing now only useful as a door-stop? 

Hi, it works connected or not, but the battery is depleting, and I can't charge it, so it's going to go totally dead and then I'm stuck.

  • PS4 Controller Not Charging and Not Recognized By Fix Or Replace Section

    Hi, I bought 2 magma red DS4s (pre-owned) and one of them works perfectly and the other doesn't. I have tried reseting the controller and connecting it a USB to try sync it up with my PS4 but nothing seems to work. When I plug the controller into the USB it flashes orange for a moment and then turns off. When I try to turn it on it simply flashes for a few moments and turns off again. Anyone know what's wrong here? Are there any places (in the UK) that I can take the controller to be repaired because when I tried to use the trouble shooting, repair or fix it section it says that I am entering an invalid serial number (it is definitely correct).

    Have you tried resetting controller? There's a little button on the back by the L2 button

  • My Macbook Pro will not charge. I have tried other charges and nothing. Can the MagSafe port go bad? Is that expensive to repair?

    My Macbook Pro will not charge. I have tried other charges and nothing. Can the MagSafe port go bad? Is that expensive to repair?

    The port can fail. Internal boards can fail. Batteries can fail. All with the result that no charging occurs. 
    You can try Resetting the System Management Controller and you can try Troubleshooting MagSafe adapters. 
    But usually you will have to take the mac in to a service place for testing.  It can get expensive, although occasionally it is not.

  • HT3964 Installed a new battery for a Macbook 2,1 New battery not charging. Battery symbol shows (Not charging) and replace battery. Green LED on magsafe connection. Disconnection results in an instant shutdown.

    I have just installed a new Battery after the old one showed (Not Charging) and when you clicked on this icon the dropdown"condition replace now". Problem now is the computer still shows the same message in the top bar (Not Charging) and the dropdown also shows "condition relace now". the magsafe show the greem LED i.e not charging, but providing power. If you disconnect the magsafe the computer powers off instantly confirming we have power. I have carried out resetting the SMC controller and still no change. Tested the standby voltage on the magsafe pins etc, all in spec. What should I do now, as I don't want to keep spending more and more. Bellow is the info from the system profiler.

    That means the power adapter can see the computer. If it saw the battery it would turn amber. Check battery connections. Might have to open it up. Have a spare battery or one you can borrow? Apple Store would have one.

    When I traveled a lot as a professional cinematographer/videographer, after every plane trip my assistant cameraman would go through all the screws in the camera. Invariably the time on the plane would loosen many screws.
    Also 10.5.8 is pretty old at this point. Probably not part of this problem but still.

    Hi, Michelle. Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
    Have you tried resetting the SMC? The SMC (System Management Controller) has control over the charging function, so resetting it may help.

  • MacBook 2,1 Core 2 Duo (2006) Will Not Charge Nor Recognize The Batter

    Hi wadesie,
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communites.
    I found two articles that should be of use for you to sort out why your computer is not recognizing the battery. The first is general battery troubeshooting. 
    Mac notebooks: All about batteries - Apple Support
    Regarding not recognizing the battery it says:
    My battery is not recognized
    If the battery in your MacBook, MacBook Air, or MacBook Pro is fully drained of power, the battery will put itself into a low power state to preserve its ability to charge in the future. Connect your Mac Notebook to AC power and allow it to charge for at least five minutes. If the connect to power screen persists after charging for five minutes, reset the SMC.
    The next article provides instruction on resetting the SMC.

  • Command requires GPIB Controller to be Controller in Charge

    I downloaded the labview driver HP428XA, the 'getting started.vi' works fine, but all other example application vi's keep giving me the following warning:
    'Warning 1 occurred at VISA Read in HP428XA Fetch.vi->HP428XA Frequency Step Measurement .vi. Possible reasons:
    LabVIEW: An input parameter is invalid.
    or
    NI-488: Command requires GPIB Controller to be Controller in Charge.'
    I am a novice when it comes to labview, can anyone offer a solution?
    thanks!

    Hi,
    The two error descriptions refer to the fact that the error code (1) has a different meaning depending on what software component gave the error: labVIEW or GPIB (NI-488.2).
    Since you are able to use the Getting started VI, that means that the GPIB bus, driver and the VISA library are working porperly. Additionally, you would not get a Controller in Charge error if do not explicitly configure the board to be non system controller. labVIEW automatically configures the board to be controller.
    So the error must refer to an incorrect parameter to some LabVIEW function. Open the HP428XA Frequency Step Measurement.vi and use the highlight execution tool to see where the error is generated.
    I couldn't find the instrument driver at www.ni.com/idne
    t, so I didn't take a look at the driver.

  • Command requires GPIB Controller to be Controller in Charge on dequeue element

    I have some funky stuff going on in the attached VI. What the VI does is simply to log data to a text file. It is built up as a state machine. This VI's Create state is called from a mainVI (with the help of named queues). I get more than one error and it seems completely random.The error usually occurs if I stop the mainVI, then starts it again. So the second (or following) times the DP VI is called, I get random errors such as the two below:
    Error 1 occurred at Dequeue Element in DP.vi->PSS.vi
    Possible reason(s):
    LabVIEW:  An input parameter is invalid.
    NI-488:  Command requires GPIB Controller to be Controller in Charge.
     Error 1 occurred at Close File in DP.vi->PSS.vi
    Possible reason(s):
    LabVIEW:  An input parameter is invalid.
    NI-488:  Command requires GPIB Controller to be Controller in Charge.
    Why is this? I don't even have a GPIB controller?
    Solved!

    blawson, I think you found the error!
    So shift registers only gets uninitialized again if I close the actual VI, and not when I start executing it again? So in reality, they actually behave like real shift registers? I found two solutions to this problem.
    1) To initialize the error shift register with an empty error constant.
    2) To remove the wire from the shift register to the Write to Text File. This works since I always call the Create state first.
    Which one would you recommend?
    Also, what is the reason to keep the typedef strict? I have seen non-strict in other code.
    Generally you should always explicitly initialize your shift registers unless you want to retain the values from one execution to the next. This is required for Action Engines but in most other cases you should use initialized shift registers to avoid side effects like you encountered in this application.

  • GPIB controller in charge

    I have a PC attached to a number of test equipment via GPIB.  This test rack is testing a UUT that has a GPIB interface we're trying to test.  Main PC code is in labview, and UUT software is in CVI.  I would like to (using LV) set the main PC to standby, then set the UUT as controller in charge.  I would like the UUT to send the main PC a "*IDN?", and have the main PC respond with some known name string.  Then, I need to set the UUT back to Standby mode (I guess after some predetermined time?).  Just wondering what LabVIEW widgets I would need to use.  Since I'm not talking to any specific GPIB instrument, I don't have a specific GPIB address, so how (in LV) do I refer to the GPIB interface at this level?

    In the real system, the UUT is the controller, so we're trying to simulate that by making it the CIC.  Then, the UUT is supposed to issue the IDN? to the SystemController (SC), and listen for an expected string.  I ran a few experiments (without the UUT-unavailable), and a few things are more clear.  However, I'm still not sure about a couple of things.  (1) when the SC (in LabVIEW) uses PassControl, I'm not sure what to set the bus and address inputs to.  When  at the same computer, and the SC is talking to a sig gen, I tell it bus=0, and addr=19 (sig gen;s gpib addr).  With two controllers, however, would the SC PassControl with bus=1?  Not sure what address would be since UUT is a controller, and not a device on the its bus. (2) to get control back at the SC, would I (from the SC) send a SendIFC with bus=1?  I plan on having a timeout, in case the UUT never replies.

  • Please help me, Ipod mini is not charging nor recognizing

    I connected my mini with my PC,but nothing happened,not charging nor any recognition. Then, all hard working coming....
    First of all,i checked my PC has USB2.0 port,(Asus P4P800 deluxe),for make sure about that,i opened device manager to find i have "standard enhanced PCI to USB host controller" present.well then,it seems not my PC's problem.
    Secondly, i tried to reset my mini,surely, that's no any response since it's never been charged. For additional carefulness,i waited for above 30 mins as guide book says it may need time to charge the battery at the first time. Actually, i connected it with my PC for 2 hours.. nothing's happened.. really annoying.
    Finally,i tired to update itunes to a new version,but no miracle happens,the mini even does show on my resource list....i am revolting now..
    I got this one for a little fun, but all it's given are troubles...I spent 2 hours on getting it started already.Thank godness if anyone can help me. Lots of appreciation.

    Yeah.....after 4 hours connecting with my PC,it's charging now.......just started 5 mins ago. I am faint,why just told me need to wait a few hours,make me confused and annoyed.
    hope not too many problems later.
