My charger will keep my computer charge constant, but won't increase it. What's wrong? My roommate's charger will actually charge my computer.

My macbook pro charger will only keep my charge constant, and the info. says that my battery is not charging. However, the charge will not decrease as long as it's plugged in and my roommate's charger will actually charge the computer. What's wrong?

It seems that your charger may not be putting out enough 'juice'.  Does it perform in the same way on your roommates MBP?  You may need a new one.
Ciao.

  • Apple wants to charge for a repair but won't tell me what's wrong with my iPad

    So my iPad mini is 1 year and 5 days old, and it suddenly won't power on.  Nothing, even with a different charger and cable.  The Apple website said to send in for battery/power issues, so I filled in the form and gave them my credit card for a little over $100.00 and sent it to them via UPS.  That was 2 days ago, now I get an email saying they need to charge me $225.95+tax and I have 48 hours to either pay it or have them send the unit back.  Nothing on their repair status tells me what is wrong and why the sudden increase in price for an iPad mini repair.  I can call or chat online for another $19.00, but that seems like hiway robbery to me.  I mean, I already paid you $100+, can't you even tell me what you found that needs another $225?!?!?  On the repair status, there is an area called views of your product with a broken image file, so I can't even see what they are referring to.
    If I way the $19, will they even be able to tell me anything, or will they just read what I can see on the webpage?  I'm starting to think it will be cheaper to just buy another iPad mini at this rate.
    Has anyone any advice ?

    Well, I called Apple and talked to them last night.  They were surprisingly very friendly.  They emailed me a picture of the iPad with what they were concerned about.  Now there is a dent in a corner, that I know wasn't there before.  I take create care of the iPad and use a full bumper case.  I explained to the repair tech that this dent is new and was not there when I took the iPad in for UPS.  Actually, when I took the iPad to UPS, I had the unit in the original box (I'm OCD that way).  The guy at UPS told me to take the iPad out of the box and then he weighed the iPad, some bubble wrap and an empty box.  He then said it was good to go and I walked away with the original packaging.  I honestly suspect the damage happened at UPS.  Plus a small dent in a corner shouldn't affect battery, right?  Anyway, after talking with a few people at repair, they noticed that their records show the iPad being 1 day out of AppleCare. 
    The last guy was going to just charge me for the battery replacement, which I am good with.  But, guess what, Apple can't partial charge, it's either all or nothing.  So, after about an hour of being on the phone, they will repair or replace the iPad at no charge to me (just this once, only). 
    I have to admit, that calling and talking with these guys was very helpful.  Everyone was friendly and cheering.  Plus I wasn't calling India (no offence to India).  I am definitely going to continue purchasing Apple products if this how their support works.  If only Cisco could learn to work that way...

  • TS2446 hi i forgot my password on my ipad 4 then i reset to anew password successfully. still i am not able to log in.i keep being asked to try again in ever increasing minutes.what is wrong?

    Hi .I forgot the password for my ipad4.i managed to reset it succesfully via internet. problem is ,the new password still doesn´t work and the ipad keeps asking me to retry again in ever increasing minutes

    Are you talking about your passcode?  If you need to remove it, you'll have to back up your iPad and restore it in iTunes on the last computer it was synced with, as explained under "If you have previously synced your device with iTunes" in the artilce you were viewing (http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2446).  If you can't do this, you'll have to follow one of the other solutions listed at the bottom of this article.

    When syncing Contacts or Calendars between an iPhone, iPad, or an iPod touch and Outlook 2003, Outlook 2007, or Outlook 2010, changes that you synced to your computer may not appear in Outlook even after the sync has been completed.Try this article to see if it works for you

  • I put  video clips together and added music off of iTunes but it will not attach when I put it on youtube or vimeo. what is wrong.  It plays as I made it on iMovie

    I put  video clips together and added music off of iTunes
    but it will not attach when I put it on youtube or vimeo.
    what is wrong.  It plays as I made it on iMovie

    Thank you all for your replies. Here is what i ended up doing. I cannot afford any 3rd party software so i went to itunes and manually entered all my playlists. As I had indicated my purchased music was on my new computer just not the playlists  and I could not sync my ipod. After I rebuilt all my playlists I tried to restore my ipod to factory defaults/new. All of the steps called for in apple support and elsewhere were not available to me. I connected my ipod, went to my computer, right clicked my ipod, and formatted. That wiped my ipod so when I connected to itunes it then gave me a restore option. I did the restore and all is good in the empire again. I can now buy new music and sync my ipod so I am a happy camper.
    Thanks to all.

  • HT201656 Email is unusable as it keeps trying to load emails and won't stop. What can I do?

    Email is unusable as it keeps trying to load emails and won't stop. What can I do?

    Try closing the mail app completely and reboot your iPad. Assuming that you are running iOS 7 .....
    Double tap the home button and you will see apps lined up going left to right across the screen. Swipe to get to the Mail app and then swipe "up" on the app preview thumbnail to close it.
    Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

    I just went through this same process.... I changed my credit card, double checked billing info, changed my password, I restored my phone, but the misake I made was I kept restoring it from my back up.... Finally I went to Apple Store.. and sad to say that you have to do a restore, and DO NOT restore from back up.
    I used Gmail so I didnt loose contacts or email.. but I did loose all my text messages and history of that.
    So, I had the EXACT same problem and it was a software issue.. you have to restore your phone to factory settings and start all over.. BLOWS I know!

  • IPod is using voice over and won't scroll. What setting did my child click? It will allow me to use voice control, but i need to know what's wrong first so I can give the correct command.

    My daughter's iPod is using voice over and won't scroll. What setting did my child click? It will allow me to use voice control, but i need to know what's wrong first so I can give the correct command.

    VoiceOver is an Accessibility feature while Voice Control allows you to control the Music app via voice.
    To turn off VoiceOver triple click the Home button and go to Settings>General>Accessibility and turn it off. Use three fingers to scroll if necessary.

    HI krishbiliyar,
    Where did you download the file from? Does the file have PDF filename extension? And where are you getting the message that it's not a PDF file? In Reader or Acrobat?
    I look forward to hearing back from you.

    PLEASE HELP. It would be a Big Help

    That's unfortunate, because it would appear that the cable is pretty much toast. If it wasn't before, it pretty much is now that you've cracked it open.
    Either borrow one, or bite the bullet and buy one locally. You're not getting anywhere with that one.

    My iTunes won't update on my computer. I have windows vista. I can open up itunes and when I click on "check for updates" it asks if I want to download iTunes version 11.1.5 and I click "Download iTunes" but then nothing happens. Sometimes uptop the loading bar will appear but for only a split second. I have tried restarting, shutting down, I cannot figure out why it won't download. What's happening and how do I fix it?

    - Transfer iTunes purchases:
    iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer
    - Transfer other music by using a third-party program like one of those discussed here:
    newer copy
    - Connect the iPod to the computer and make a backup by right clicking on the iPod under Devices in iTunes and select Back Up
    - Restore the iPod from that backup.
    Note that the iPod backup that iTunes makes does not include synced media like apps and music.

    The files are on a windows laptop and a hard drive hooked up to the windows laptop. The windows share server is pants, so I'd need some sort of third party server running. Maybe you weren't suggesting to use Samba to connect to the windows share though?
