Macbook pro 2011 late md322 will not charge

Helppp !!!
What should I do?
I bought this mac 20 days ago

Hi, my friend had this happen. It turned out to be a hardware fault, whereby the sensor that detetcs that the lid is closed had died.
Fron what the AASP, who fixed the issue, advised it is quite common place and only repairable by an AASP.
If you are under Applecare, you can make a claim. Alternatively, contact your local AASP and have the machine evaluated, and the repair quoted.
Good luck.

  • Installed Yosemite update on MacBook Pro retina late 2013 will not boot flashing folder with ?

    I just Installed Yosemite update on MacBook Pro retina late 2013 will not boot flashing folder with ?

    dunno, Lynn--maybe Etrecheck. trying running disk utility to verify the status of your hard drive. That may give you a basic idea. Perhaps tech tool pro.  As for it running hot, I can't say for sure. try shutting it down and using a vacuum clearner +crevice tool around the back of it.  It's been my experience that hard drives usually fail without a lot of warning, luckily you have a backup. Afterwards you can say "Yup, that went bad".  I've done a little research and found out that your MacBook Pro doesn't come with a conventional hard drive as such, but an SSD (solid state device) . It's upgradeable (up to 1 TB ) but not cheaply
    go here for more info (OWC) :http://eshop.macsales.com. For right now, I'd recommend resetting the SMC/PMU, maybe zapping the pram . to do that, reboot, hold down Apple+Option, P+R keys while rebooting. Hold down for 3 chimes, let go and let it boot. as for the SMC thing....
    I'm assuming your battery isn't removeable-shut down computer, plug in MagSafe cable . On built in keyboard, on left side, press Shift-Control-Option and power button at the same time.  release all the keys and the power button. press power button again to turn on computer
    that is all

  • MacBook Pro 15" (Late 2013) will not install Windows 8.1 Pro under Boot Camp?

    Have spent many hours trying to sort this out. I was told this morning in the end by a 'Senior Advisor' @ Apple that Boot Camp does not support Windows 8.1 Pro so effectively it seems like my only option for a new machine purchased earlier in the week is to return for a refund.
    This despite the Apple Spec saying "
    Windows 8: Windows 8 or 8.1, Windows 8 or 8.1 Pro (Boot Camp 5 only)"
    The subject has been aired in thread https://discussions.apple.com/thread/5474320?start=585&tstart=0 but it has been suggested I post a fresh thread.
    I have purchased a new 8.1 Pro license, so this is not an upgrade. I have followed the Boot Camp instructions, including getting the update for this model spcifically, but the nearest I got to a successful install returns soemthing of the like 'Unable to update boot settings' or the like and installation cancels. My machine is a mess I guess now, but in a final effort - does anyone have the step by step 'idiots guide' to working through the setup successfully? I don't want to get involved in massses of messing around with files as this should clearly not be necessary for achieving an advertised solution on a new machine bought within the last week should it?
    Appreciate any help - I have up to seven more days left in my option to return for a full refund..... and maybe buy a Dell instead?
    PS : We have many Apple products, Air, ipads and iphones so would dearly like to sort this out if possible.
    Thanks for any help...

    8/8.1 will install fine but there's some stuff you need to do before starting to ensure no issues
    purchase a retail 8/8.1 license
    use only a USB2 flash drive
    get a clean 8 or 8.1 ISO
    newer machines are more selective with the ISO for some reason (ISOs that worked to install Windows on many different older Macs would not work)
    if you've made lots of changes, hacks and adjustments trying to get this work on your own, you should clean install OSX first, do not restore from time machine and start at step 3 to get Windows installed, you can go back later and copy files back to OSX
    if you want to try without clean installing OSX, here goes
    open boot camp assistant (bca) and choose option 3 ONLY if it reads 'remove/delete' Windows
    open disk utility (du) and confirm that your HD now only has 1 single partition ('macintosh HD' unless you've renamed it)
    restart machine and do a PRAM reset
    open du and repair permissions TWICE
    open bca and choose all 3 options (create, download, install)
    from here, the process follows the standard boot camp instructions (http://manuals.info.apple.com/MANUALS/1000/MA1636/en_US/boot_camp_install-setup_ 10.8.pdf) but pay attention to step 3 where you do have to manually reformat the boot camp partition
    clean ISOs

  • MacBook Pro 15" Late 2008 will not sleep on its own

    My MacBook Pro will sleep just fine if I close the lid or select sleep from the Apple menu. It won't, however, ever fall asleep on its own. I've tried resetting the SMC to no avail. Any suggestions as to what I should look for?

    Certain settings, e.g. printer sharing, can prevent timed sleep. If it's a brand new Mac and you migrated a fair amount of data from a previous computer, Spotlight may still be indexing. There are other possibilities as well. See this kbase article:

  • I have recently bought a brand new MacBook Pro and the battery will not charge

    When the magsafe adapter is connected. Has anyone else got this problem. N.B. The charging icon in the top right hand corner only displays the words (Not Charging)
    I have been told by Apple Care to try a PRAM reset and a SMC reset, but the light on the mag safe never turns amber, just stay lit green.

    Hi...
    At least try some troubleshooting before taking the Mac in...  these are very easy procedures to follow.
    Try here >  Apple Portables: Troubleshooting MagSafe adapters
    And definitely try Resetting the System Management Controller (SMC)
    If that doesn't help, try Resetting your Mac's PRAM and NVRAM

  • 17" Macbook Pro (2011) battery drains or not charging while using intensive CPU

    My brand new 17" MBP (August 2011) has a serious problem: Despite the AC adaptor is plugged in, the battery starts to drain (or is unable to charge if it is lower than 95%) when I ran intensive tasks (like rendering with After FX, convert videos with Compressor or start to play a videogame). I tested it and it happens under Mac OS X and Windows 7 (BootCamp).
    I readed some user have the same problem with 15" & 17" MBP 2011 models. But I haven't found any solution.
    Anyone knows if this is a hardware or software failure? Do I need to ask Apple for a new machine?
    Any help will be welcome. Thanks.

    Thanks Retired Engineer, but I don't think it's normal. Well, maybe it is "normal" (or by definition: common) in the 2011 MBP models, but it doesn't means that there is a problem with its design or hardware.
    I have an "old" 15" MBP, which I bought in 2007, and since then it never happened to me that the computer is draining or unable to charge the battery while heavy processor intensive processes. I used the exact same softwares and processes in my new 2011 17" MBP, and then is when I detected the problem.
    I read on some forums that this is a common issue with 2011 models. I don't know if Apple has an official answer about this or if there is a solution or workaround. Maybe they could simply shipped this machines with a more powerful AC adapter, able to deliver more than 85W, which seems to be not enough.
    I will make further investigation about this, because I think it is a serious problem when it is presented in a computer labeled as "Pro", which I understand is designed to be under heavy usage.

    Try booting in Safe Mode by holding your Shift key down when booting. Also, try holding the eject key down when booting to eject the DVD. If you plug a mouse in and hold the clicker down when booting, that should eject the DVD.

    If the modem is also a router, either use the modem in bridge and run pppoe client on the TC.. that is assuming ADSL or similar eg vdsl. If it is cable service.. and the modem is a router, then bridge the TC.. go to internet page and select connect by ethernet and below that set connection sharing to bridge.
    Please tell us more about the modem if the above gives you issues.

  • My MacBook Pro tells me it's not charging when I connect the charger.  What do I do?

    My MacBook Pro tells me it's not charging when I connect the charger.  Right now it's reading it, but other times it does not.  What do I do?

    Initiating a charge cycle is a costly and disruptive operation. It is only started when the benefit to battery life exceeds the cost to battery life of a charge operation. That is usually when the battery falls below 90 percent charged.

  • Macbook Pro (2011 Model) suddenly does not boot from SSD in main bay

    I have been using Macbook pro 2011 and Samsung SSD (256GB) for about a year.
    All of sudden, the computer will not from SSD from the main bay, but it will boot from the optical bay.
    I have tried an Intel SSD 120gb which came with the computer, but it does not work either.
    However, it will boot from the regualr hard drive from the main bay.
    I have read somewhere that it could be due to the hard drive flex cable.
    Has anyone experienced a similar problem?

    It may very well be a problem with the SATA cable... for some reason (and I don't know why, but...) SSDs seem more prone in 'detecting' a faulty SATA cable than a standard hard drive. Where a hard drive will boot, an SSD will not.
    I would advise purchasing a new SATA cable - from ifixit.com or powerbookmedic.com - and replacing the cable. That (normally) clears up the problem.
