Mac Book Pro is plugged in but keeps showing as Not Charging.

This happened earlier this year and then the problem went away but now it's back again.  If I unplug the computer it shuts down.  What can I do?

  • I changed my apple id and my password for it too. but on my ipod and mac book pro my old apple id keeps showing up and i it doesn't except any password.  what should i do??

    I NEED HELP!!!!!!
    i changed my apple id and my password (for the apple id), but on my ipod and mac book pro my old apple id keeps showing up for icloud, and i cant put either password!!! Trust me i tried..   What should i do????  So please help!!!!!!

    On your Mac, go to System Preferences>iCloud, sign out, then sign back in with the ID you want to use.
    If you're running iOS 7 on your iPod and old ID is your ID, and if your new ID was created by editing the details of this old ID (rather than being an entirely new ID), go to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID.  Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change.  Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address.  You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iPhone on your device, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud).  Next, go back to https://appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address and iCloud ID name back to the way it was.  Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current iCloud ID and password.

  • I bought a mini DVI to HDMI convertor and  a HDMI to VGA cable to connect my mac book pro to a tv but it doesn't work any one can help.\\\\\

    i bought a mini DVI to HDMI convertor and  a HDMI to VGA cable to connect my mac book pro to a tv but it doesn't work any one can help.

    I would suggest looking into a Thunderbolt to HDMI connector. In this case, you may be able to use the TV as an external monitor. For this option, please confirm through additional research. I have not tested it personally.
    You can also use an Apple TV, which connects with HDMI. In this case, you can use Airplay Mirroring. Not all Macs support Airplay Mirroring, so you need to check first. I have a Mid-2011 27" iMac, and it supports Airplay Mirroring. I don't use it often because my TV is in another room, but I just tried it and it worked. It had to change the screen resolution to work well, so I don't know if I would want to use it as my day to day monitor. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5404

  • I have a Mac Book Pro 17 which starts but the screen is too dark to see. I have an external monitor connected but no signal. I need help. Thanks.

    I have Mac Book Pro 17 which starts but the display is too dark to see. I have separate display connected, but no signal to it. I need help. Thanks.

    The tv is a extended display on your mac like a second moitor you want to mirror them (same thing on both)
    This should help you

    I have made some progress.... I can print wirelessly from my printer now, but I can't set the printer itself to be wireless.  I had to move my printer downstairs to where my router is...which is not that convient.   I printed up the page you asked about....and as expected, it says it is off line and there is no IP address.    So now I need to figure out how to make my printer itself wireless.  I did download the HP driver I needed...but I can't access it to do anything else.  It seems l like I am missing a step... or I need to hook up my computer itself to the printer to help get the printer to be wirelss, but I can't hook it up because there is no port for me to do that (no port that looks like a phone jack).  I am guessing I would need a different type of cord, but I am not sure what kind of cord that would be! Ugh!

  • I have recently been knocked over whilst carrying my mac book pro, the screen is now damaged and it wont charge at all... would apple replace it ?

    i have recently been knocked over whilst carrying my mac book pro, the screen is now damaged and it wont charge at all... would apple replace it ?
    i have tried buying a new charger incase this was the problem, it wasnt, it just wont icharge/turn on at all, im just wondering would apple replace it, as  am a student and need a computer and this is my only one?

    Sorry no Apple will not replace it. What happened was an accident and the Apple warranty does not cover accidental damages.
    So it looks like you will need to buy a new computer or pay to have your Mac fixed.

    I think that an acceptance letter from any university would entitle you to a university discount.
    You may want to check with the Apple site in Australia.

  • Mac book pro 15" 2.3 ghz the battery cannot be charged. the upper corner right says it's plugged in but not charging.

    I just brought my Mac book pro 15" 2.3 ghz on 12 september 2012 not even one week I've used it the battery cannot be charged.
    the upper corner right says it's plugged in but not charging.
    How do I solve this I'm going to London the next week! (23/09/2012)
    I need this replaced or repaired ASAP. Is tat possible? It hasn't being used for even a week and it's already cause such a trouble? Is this what Mac is?

    Hi Steve,
    I just got back from the apple service centre. I must say they treat us pretty bad and raising voices and stuffs.. If you wanna question or doubt on such service, I've recoded everything in my mobile and iPad. The company I brought from is TECHNOCRATS in 1Borneo Hypermall. The service centre headquarters is DIGITAL FORTRESS SDN. BHD. located in Damai Point.
    Here's what happened..
    I went in the service centre and disappointingly, no one entertain us (my boyfriend and I).. we stood there for a few minutes. :(
    Till we enquire for administration and problems. A girl said she doesn't know much. She gave me a number to her superior named Charles. She asked us to contact him. Then we asked "aren't you suppose to call your superior regarding to this matter?". "it's this the part of your profession to call Charles? Why is it my job to find him?"
    Soon the lady calls him and she passed the phone to my partner.
    Wow, there was raising voices and stuffs in the phone. So my partner asked him to come up to the office and discuss this matter since he was jst downstairs. For your information this is the second visit of the day, so we visited the second time after lunch hour which is 2:15pm
    Well it was dramatic, Charles with his raising voices and terrible attitude for a greeting. So he straight forward blamed us for not putting the mbp down to the registration. (FYI no one there bothers to serve us for the 1st and 2nd visit). For my concern, this mbp is not cheap. And how can I just put down my laptop and leave? Without any rational reasons.
    Long story short, I told him my problem and he said he will make a diagnosis and will return the answer to me tomorrow probably before noon.
    Here's what I'm upset about. I enquire about the genius bar. He kinda felt offended and told me tat only apple store has genius bar! Im just asking you don't néed to be so loud on this.. I'm still very new to Mac products and stuffs.
    Now that I have sent in my Mac book pro to diagnosis with the cables and everything. Hope to get the answers soon and hope it wasn't really bad since it was new.
    Now its pretty much scarred on my side about Mac's Brand. I just wanted a reasonable solving problem and yet I get negative feedbacks from the service centre. Is this how it should end? I'm still pretty upset right now.
    Any suggestions for me? Please?
    Worried,
    Shirley

  • Mac book pro can detect wifi but not DNS server

    MMy Mac book pro will detect the wifi at school but it won't detect the DNS server meaning that I cannot access the internet! Help!

    If the Mac connects to the Wi-Fi network but webpages do not finish loading while using Safari, it may be a DNS issue, try the following:
    System Preferences>Network>Select Wi-fi on the left and click on "Advanced..">select DNS tab>add 8.8.8.8 bellow DNS servers>click on OK then Apply.
    If thats not the case, please specify to us why you think the mac does not recognize DNS server.

  • Why does my mac book Pro pick up wifi but my new ipad wont in the exact same position in my house?

    I sit in my lounge with my mac book pro and it picks up my home wifi perfectly yet when i sit with my ipad, sometimes it works and picks it it but then at times it looses the connection and I cant find the hub?? why is this and is there anything I can do to stop it from happening?

    Look at iOS Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections  http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1398
    iPad: Issues connecting to Wi-Fi networks  http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3304
    iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points  http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4199
    Additional things to try.
    Try this first. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
    Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
    Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
    Another thing to try - Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
