MacBook 13" White Model: All MagSafe Adapters Not Working

Greetings!
I've recenlty received a second-hand MacBook 13" White laptop. It was a gift from a friend and said that he wouldn't be needing it anymore.
The problem that came with the laptop was that it had no HDD since it was already taken out due to damage about a year ago. So after receiving the MacBook, I quickly went to get it fixed and had the HDD replaced, or rather put a new one in since it was already empty. Afterwhich, I installed Mac OS 10.6 Snow Leopard and I was good to go. This happened in less than a week ago.
But now, just a few hours before I made this post, a new problem came into view. Now my MacBook 13" White laptop won't charge at all. As in the battery is working, but when I used both MagSafe adapters that I have, none of them would light up and the particular laptop wouldn't charge. I double checked three (3) times, used both adapters, but nothing. I even tried restarting, removing the battery, putting it back in, but NOTHING.
I'm sure the issue isn't with the MagSafe adapters nor the outlets because both adapters work perfectly with the MacBook Pro 17" 2011 and MacBook Black 13" 2008 laptops that I have.
Could the issue be due to it not being used for a long time?
Could the issue have started when I had it fixed? If so, why the lag in time-frame before the problem occured?
Any good and related suggestions would really be of great help. Thank you and more power to all of you!

HI,
Boot from your install disk.
Insert the installer disk and Restart, holding down the "C" key until grey Apple appears.
Go to Installer menu (Panther and earlier) or Utilities menu (Tiger and later) and launch Disk Utility.
Select your HDD (manufacturer ID) in the left panel.
Select First Aid in the Main panel.
*(Check S.M.A.R.T Status of HDD at the bottom of right panel. It should say: Verified)*
Click Repair Disk on the bottom right.
If DU reports disk does not need repairs quit DU and restart.
If DU reports errors Repair again and again until DU reports disk is repaired.
When you are finished with DU, from the Menu Bar, select Utilities/Startup Manager.
Select your start up disk and click Restart
Try resetting the SMC. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1411

  • Multiple magsafe adapters not working with multiple mbps

    I have two retina macbook pro 13" laptops, the more recent one being a late 2013 model.  Neither one of them seems to respond to magsafe adapters consistently anymore (i've used four magsafe2 adapters and both machines).  light doesn't come on or sometimes comes on.  currently, i can sometimes get power but in the "not charging" state.  But if i pull the adapter and reseat it doesn't always even do that.  i've reset the SMC and also reset the PRAM.  Neither one has changed this.  Any thoughts?

    I'm having a similar issue, but cannot see anything to do with airplay in the SysPref > Sound menu.  My mac is too old to run Yosemite, so looking to find another way to get this fixed.  Any ideas?

  • After Windows 10 Pro N succesfull update all Network Adapters not working and not showing up

    Hi all, After succesfully installing the new Windows 10 Pro N onto my Windows 8.1 Pro N operating system and restarting the system, I realized that all drivers are migrated succesfully, withouht any incompatibility issue, but none of the network adapters were working, so no WiFi, no LAN connection was ready to be used, checking the list of available network adapters showed an empty list. I am using a ThinkPad T520 laptop. I have tried to update all drivers from a USB, had several restarts, but no result. Any ideas I could use to get Windows 10 up-n-running with network connections? Thank you in advance, Regards, Gyula

    No.
    Power Adapter/ cord wattage
    “Power adapters for Intel-based Apple notebooks are available in 45W, 60W, and 85W varieties. Although you should always use the proper wattage adapter for your Apple notebook, you can use an adapter of a higher wattage without issue.”

    I just downloaded Adobe XI onto my macbook air and now I cannot save or print any PDF files. Will not let me do Print-Save as PDF, and if i do Save as i get a message saying that the file is corrupted. I had NO PROBLEMS at all doing this many times until i downloaded the new version. I have uninstalled and reinstalled, to no avail. I am super frustrated.
    Print>Save as PDF - uses Preview (part of OS X), so Adobe Reader should have no effect on that at all.
    As to the "damaged file" error, simply uninstalling the Reader app won't affect it. Do the following:
    Mac HD/Library/Internet Plug-ins
    Trash the AdobePDFViewer.plugin and AdobePDFViewerNPAPI.plugin files
    Mac HD/Applications
    Trash the Adobe Reader app
    [user]/Library/Preferences
    Trash the com.adobe.Reader.plist file
    To access the [user]/Library, hold the "Option" key and click "Go" from the FInder menu.
    Mac HD/Library/Application Support/Adobe
    Trash the Reader folder (the whole folder)
    Empty the Trash.
    Download the FULL installer here: http://get.adobe.com/reader/enterprise/
    Quit your browser and reinstall Reader.
    Launch it from the Applications folder and accept the license agreement.
    You should have no problems downloading PDFs with Safari.
    Unfortunately, ANY PDF that says it's damaged.... is. You'll have to trash them.

  • Why Model MD297AE/A is not working with Fcae time and Model MD293C/A is working in UAE with Facetime

    Why Model MD297AE/A is not working with Fcae time and Model MD293C/A is working in UAE with Facetime.
    In fact I have given my iPhone to my daughter to use in Canada (purchased from UAE ISP) she is unable to use Face Time within Canada. ?
    Is it possibile to activate FaceTime in Canada if iPhone is purchase from UAE.
    Purchase under Points by ISP (No contract)
    Thanks
    Abbas

    Hello sir
           I agree what u replied for the above question, but because of the UAE request, you cannot deactivate the facetime completely from this iphone, they should stop working through SIM network. The iphone is a universal mobile which can travel all over the world, many tourist people will suffer due to that, pls re-consider in taking back and try to make it upgrading this software.
    Thanks

  • XMLP 5.6.2 - Parameters -  Both Multi-Select and All-Select  Do Not Work

    Both Multi-Select and All-Select Do Not Work.
    What's up with this behavior?
    And when might it be fixed?
    BG...

    The Multi-Select is now working, not sure what I did wrong earlier. However the "Can select all" option when building the parameter does not work as advertised, though I was able to get around that as well.
    Create a Data Model
    select LAST_NAME, FIRST_NAME from SOME_TABLE where SOME_COLUMN =:SOME_VALUE
    OR
    select LAST_NAME, FIRST_NAME from SOME_TABLE where SOME_COLUMN in (:SOME_VALUE)
    Create a LOV
    Name = LOV_SOME_COLUMN
    Type = SQL Query
    select distinct SOME_TABLE.SOME_COLUMN as SOME_COLUMN from SCHEMA.TABLE
    Create a Parameter
    Identifier = PARM_SOME_COLUMN
    Data Type = String
    Default Value = NULL
    Parameter Type = Menu
    Display Label = LOV_SOME_COLUMN
    List Of Value = LOV_SOME_COLUMN
    Option
    Multiple Selection - Checked
    Can select all - Checked
    Refresh other parameters on change - Checked
    Then test your report. Select "All" from the LOV and click view. Result - No Rows Returned.
    Selecting a "Single" or "Multiple Values" values from the LOV does work.
    The way I am getting around the problem is to uncheck the "Can select all" and then manually select all the values in the LOV in order to get the "All".

  • All my movies not working anymore since download the new version OS X 10.9.4

    all my movies not working anymore since download the new version OS X 10.9.4

    Hi Jeff,
    In Safari I get this error message: Safari can't open "aam://SAP...[link of the download]" because OS X doesn't recognize internet address starting with "aam:". I thought it was a browser issue (I can't click the download button in Chrome) so downloaded FireFox but it also gives me an error message saying: Firefox doesn't know how to open this address because one of the following protocols (aam) isn't connected to any program or allowed in this context.
    I don't have Creative Cloud Membership, I received a CD with Photoshop Lightroom 5 with my new camera from Samsung. Because my MacBook Air doesn't have a DVD drive I figured I should download it. Couldn't find Lightroom 5 in the Appstore so I figured I should download a trial version and simply add the key from the DVD. Unfortunately I can't even download the trial version due to these error messages.
    Hope you can help!
    Thanks,
    Ivana

    Could you please resolve this problem,

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    Simply take it to an Apple Store or reseller if it's in warranty. Your Mac will be repaired or replaced for free because it looks a hardware problem rather than a software issue.
    If it's not in warranty, hold Command and R keys while your MacBook is starting up, and reinstall OS X. If it doesn't work, you can't do much more to solve the problem

    This is quite frustrating, since it randomly occured as I was browsing the web.  It seemed to happen out of nowhere.  I cannot login to my user account because I cannot type my password. 
    Any help will be appreciated.

    If you have another Mac, boot the non-working one into Target Disk Mode (holding down "T" at startup). Hook up the two Macs via a Firewire cable. The non-working one will mount on the other Mac as an external Firewire HD.
    Next, download the 10.5.6 Combo update from here:
    http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/apple/macosx_updates/macosx1056comboupdate .html
    Run it. When it asks you for a destination, choose the other Mac that was mounted via Firewire. When it's done, unmount the computer and restart it. The keyboard and mouse should work now.
