How to resolve plugged in, not charging? probook 4520s
how to resolve plugged in, not charging? probook 4520s
hi erico,
thaks for your post
I am using original adapter, that is included in the sales package.
I bought a new original battery cause I though it was battery problem but when I replaced the battery it's still same problem.
I already tried these steps but the problem still exist;
Disconnect AC, Shutdown, Remove battery
Connect AC
Startup (w/o battery)
Open Device Manager
Expand Batteries category & right-click all of the "Microsoft ACPI Compliant Control Method Battery" listings (ok if only 1)
Select Uninstall
Click OK to confirm
Expand System Devices.
Right-click the “ACPI Fixed Features Button" and select Uninstall.
Click OK to confirm
Shutdown, Disconnect AC, Insert battery
Connect AC
Restart the machine
My notebook is none warranty cause I bought it in KSA, I'm from Philippines and I think it is already out of warranty in KSA cause it was almost 1 year.
Any idea how to resolve this problem? Please..
Thanks in advance.

HP Probook 4510S says "Plugged in Not Charging," little help from tech support
Hi there,
I have a two year old HP Probook 4510S that has had a ton of problems. The most recent of which was an error message every time I turned on the computer saying "Batter is critically low" and it stopped charging and said that power was 0% (it continued to work though if it was plugged in and would die immediately if the plug was removed). I replaced the battery ($108), which took about a month to receive because HP apparently sent the store the battery that goes with the new model of Probook and said it would fit in the old model (it didn't and had to be sent back). When I finally got the new battery it worked for about a day and then I noticed that the message said "Plugged in, not charging" and when the charger isn't plugged in the battery seems to deplete rapidly. Now it's at 36% and not charging.
I spoke to someone today at tech support and she said because it's out of warranty they couldn't help me, but that I should "try a friend's charger" to diagnose the problem myself, as though everyone has the same charger. When I said I didn't have access to another laptop to try another charger she just repeated that I need to try it on a different charger to see if it's a problem with the battery or the charger. But that if it's the battery and I provide them with proof of purchase they could replace that. The battery is brand new and doing the same thing as the last battery, so I doubt this is the problem. I said that I had seen messages all over the internet discussing this problem and that no one seemed to have the answer and she said "Those are on the internet, we haven't substantiated those claims." I'm shocked that HP doesn't seem to care that they get a bad reputation for offering so little help if a product is out of warranty. Because of this experience I doubt I would purchase another product from them, and I would warn others against it too. I've had more computer problems with HP than any other brand of laptop I've had or any of my friends/family have had. In the meantime, has anyone else had this problem? From the forums I've read it seems that occasionally people find solutions, but none seem to be working for me. Any insight would be much appreciated.I did a BIOS update on my ProBook 4530s and it took care of the problem

Lenovo b570e "Plugged In, Not Charging"
Recently Bought the new laptop Lenovo B570e.
Few days back, the battery icon said "Plugged In, Not Charging"
After googling with the issue I found one fix that worked, it is as follows:
Disconnect AC
Shutdown
Remove battery
Connect AC
Startup
Under the Batteries category, right-click all of the Microsoft ACPI Compliant Control Method Battery listings, and select Uninstall (it’s ok if you only have 1).
Shutdown
Disconnect AC
Insert battery
Connect AC
Startup
However, today i experienced the same problem and i went for the same fix as above, but it didnt work...
Please Suggest me a permanent solution for this problem!
Solved!

HP G62-b13SA Notebook - "Plugged in, not charging"
Hi,
I have an issue with charging my HP HP G62-b13SA Notebook PC (on Windows 7 Home Premium). I've noticed that when I plug in the adapter, the icon says 'plugged in, not charging'.
However, I notice that sometimes it will charge for between a few seconds to about a minute (when I first connect the charger) with the orange light showing before I get the 'not charging' message and the light turns blue.
I have had the laptop for nearly 3 years and recently had to purchase a replacement battery as the original had gone completely flat.
I've tried running the battery down and charging it, but no luck and the HP support assistant said the battery is ok
Thanks,
JonathonHi @Lewistrick
Thank you for your query.
I grasp that until a few days ago your battery was working well but now it will not charge. You followed some suggestion in the forum but they did not help.
You ran the battery test and were informed you need to replace this one. You are concerned that the test may be faulty and that you do not need to replace it.
Here are two documents to help you understand battery life and provides an alternative method to test the battery to ensure the first test was correct.

T540p plugged in, not charging
I just got this laptop at end of February. When I click on the icons in the lower right corner, there is an icon with a battery and plug. It says 96% available (plugged in, not charging).
Anyone know why? And what the fix is?Hi Laurenametrano,
Ok, please shutdown the system and remove the battery from the system, and switch on the system only with power adapter and go to device manager by right clicking the computer and select manage.
In device manager go to batteries option and expand it and right click on Microsoft ACPI and click on uninstall, after that shutdown the system and connect battery and switch on the system by connecting both battery and power adapter and check it, this should resolve the issue.
Please check the below image for further assistance.

Hope this helps.

HP Pavillion DV7-1428CA; Vista Home Premium; Current Power Plan icon in system tray now shows alert: "plugged in, not charging"!!
What can I do to resolve this issue?? BTW, no significant changes to my system other than AV updates etc,
Thanks.Since Battery check indicates a good battery, your hardware is working fine.
It sounds like it may be Windows that is confused.

U330: "plugged in, not charging"
Hello all,
I posted this "poor battery life on U330" tread but I'll probably get more advice by starting a new one.
My U330 is not charging anymore. What I see is the message "plugged in, not charging". After searching in the Google I noticed this is not a Lenovo's only issue. Perhaps is a problem of Windows Vista, I don't know. The first time it occurred, as suggested by someone on the internet, I removed the battery, and after a few minutes put back again. It did work on the first time, but not anymore.
Does someone know the origin and how to solve this issue?
Thank you very much,
Lucio.Guess till today you solved it already, but if not here is my "solution" for this.
Discharge fully till 0. If your system will shut down try starting computer and go to BIOS and discharge further in BIOS till computer will shut down due to lack of power. Then plug charger on switched off computer and leave it like this for 10-15hours.
Had something similiar and only "solution" was to discharge further as only then comuter was starting to charge. If I'm not mistaken this happend only when I discharge till quite low level. -
Hello!
Yesterday i bought brand new Lenovo m5400, and after installing Lenovo Solution Center and Power Managment, my battery went plugged in not charging. I doubt there is something wrong with the battery since its only 1 day usedhi zk4acid,
Welcome to the Lenovo Forums.
If you're running on Windows 8.1, can you try to launch the Lenovo Energy Manager and ensure that the Conservation Mode is turned off ( this mode limits the battery charge level to 55%-60% of its full capacity to reduce the battery degradation and extend the battery lifespan).

Let me know how it goes.

Thinkpad X1 Carbon (3Gen) Battery Not Charging (plugged in not charging)
I have a Thinkpad X1 Carbon (Gen3) Model 20BS touchscreen running Windows 7 64 bit. The battery is not charging -- it's in a perpetual state of "plugged in not charging" and even when plugged in, it’s losing appr 1 percent per day (down to 31%). This has happened a few times over the past 3-4 months since I got the machine, but I've managed to find things that "fixed" it (at least temporarily): - Resetting the power gauge worked once - Changing the custom battery charge threshold worked a few times - Plugging in the power cord at different stages of reboot seemed to fix it once (although not sure why / how) Based on previous thread posts, I've uninstalled and reinstalled Power Manager and then tried to run Battery Gauge Reset, but to no avail. And the reset only appears to run for about 30 sec before the system tray icon switches back to normal. Thanks in advance. Karl

Lenovo P580 battery "plugged in, not charging" problem?
Hi, I have a Lenovo P580 that is almost 3 years old, and I recently bought a new battery from Amazon to replace the original battery that came with the laptop. However, after installing the new battery, I can't get it to charge with the AC adapter plugged in. The new battery had a 60% charge initially. I currently have the battery setting in "battery fully-charged mode." The battery indicator light is red and flashes quickly, regardless of whether the AC adapter is plugged in or not (and despite having 60% charge). In the bottom right-hand corner of the desktop taskbar, the battery is recognized as being "plugged in, not charging." Is there a way to get the battery to charge? Or should I return the battery and get a different one? I really don't think the battery is the problem, but who knows. Thanks.
hi MlodyDziura,
Welcome to Lenovo Community Forums!
Can you Verify that when the Computer is Plugged in and Turned on the battery icon on the lower right states that it is Plugged in not Charging.
And how many Percent it says on the status.
Thanks

Toshiba Qosmio X505 plugged in, not charging message
I have a Toshiba Qosmio X505 that is almost 4 years old and have some power issues. The battery is drained to about 6% and the battery icon in the tool bar has the plug symbol for a second then it goes away then comes back and goes away.... it keeps flashing like this. When I move the mouse over the battery icon it says plugged in, not charging. I have tried every solution I have found on line with no luck. I have removed the battery and ac charger and then held the power button for 30 seconds, I have cleaned the connections, I have re-installed the battery about 10 times, I have rebooted all to no avail.
When I remove the ac adapter the power light is off and the battery light is orange. When I remove the battery and plug in the ac adapter the power light is steady red. As soon as I put the battery in the ac power light begins to blink on and off. The computer does not power on with the battery removed and the ac adapter plugged in (but I'm not sure if it's supposed to). I will also add that in the last week or so when I power on I would get a black screen saying an NTFS file is bad and the machine wants to do a disk check. The disk check never runs, even when I try to do it manually.
I have read this could be a motherboard issue, an ac adapter issue, or a battery issue. I am hopoing a replacement battery fixes the problem. Before buying a battery I was hoping someone had some info to share. ThanksI bought a battery hoping that takes care of the problem. If that doesn't work I will try a new adapter and if that doesn't work I will probably just remove the hard drive and use it as an external on a new machine. Seems there really isn't a whole lot of info out there about this problem other than the start button solution.

A135-S4527 Battery plugged in, not charging
There are 1000s of posts on the net but no solution is working. I'm summarizing the problem for those who are already frustrated by seeing solutions in the following order and did not work, so please do not provide any solution mentioned below 1. charger/cord/plug/outlet not working 2. battery dated non working 3. battery contacts unclean 4. restart / push power switch for 30 secs etc There are many where any of the above doesn't work as permanent solution. Sometimes it seems as working but it doesnt last for longer. Now stating the problem of mine specifically My battery was gone. I knew that when this started. The issue was, even if the AC Adapter is connected and the battery is ON and detected, it would always say x% remaining (Plugged in, not charging) - where x is < 100% . This message is so frustrating (even now I'm seeing this and I need to post before the battery gets discharged) Why would a AC Adapter not charge when it is connected and battery is charged less than 100%? Even if lets say a battery pack is not holding enough charge, it should attempt to continuously charge if the charge is less than 100% This has started when I upgraded the laptop Toshiba Satellite A135-S4527 to Win 7. I've replaced the battery with a new one and only thing I can charge the battery is shut down and keep the laptop with battery connected with AC Adapter. Since last few days even the red charging LED has stopped showing up. I've found that the problem is related to "Microsoft ACPI Compliant Control Method battery" Have perfomed all sorts of instructions as given but none works Funniest part is when this message is on and battery is not charging while AC Adapter is connected, it is still drawing power off the battery as the % goes down and it simply knocks off when battery is fully discharged, completely ignoring that the AC Adapter is connected (Yes, it is connected as you can see the icon with the pin) I'd stop here for some advise before this goes off again. Thank you so much for your attention
