My macbook pro is not charging - any help please!?
<Edited by Host>

Hi sdennisonta,
If you are having an issue with charging your MacBook Pro, I would suggest that you troubleshoot using the steps in this article - 
Mac notebooks: All about batteries - Apple Support
If the battery appears to be working correctly you may want to see if the issue lies with your power adapter. Use the steps in this article -
Apple Portables: Troubleshooting MagSafe adapters - Apple Support
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.

  • My Macbook Pro is not charging eventhough the battery is 95%, Is it not working ?

    My Macbook Pro is not charged even  though the battery is at 95%. This is my first Macbook therefore I dont have any knowledges about it. When I replug the Adapter, only green light appeared, no matter how many tme I try. I bought it last year therefore I dont know if the battery is dead, or someting else happen to it. Last time, I need to get a new adapter because it is not charging at all. Is there anyway I can prevent it to happen? Thank you so much for helping me.

  • My MacBook Pro will not open any application or program that requires internet, even though I am connected to the web.

    My MacBook Pro will not open any app or program that requires Internet, even though I am connected to the web. I recently installed Norton AntiVirus and think it may have changed a setting that I couldn't find. I uninstalled Norton and it didn't help. Every time I open Safari, iTunes or any other program that tries to connect to the Internet, it crashes. Strangely enough, Skype still works, but nothing else.
    I have OSx 10.6.8.
    I have tried erasing plists, and all the standard troubleshooting, ie resetting modem, restarting computer, reloading Safari from disk.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance.

    I uninstalled Norton and it didn't help.
    To properly uninstall Norton software follow these instructions - Locate Symantic Solutions folder inside the Applications folder at the root level of your HD, launch the Symantec Uninstaller application, select the Symantec AntiVirus Corporate, Norton AntiVirus & Norton AntiVirus Auto-Protect entries and click the Uninstall button. 
    Confirm your decision when prompted and then enter your administrator password in the space provided.
    Retart your computer & Norton should be gone for good.
    If the above does not work, download a copy of Symantec’s RemoveSymantecMacFiles removal utility.  This utility will launch Terminal & remove the Norton components.

  • My macbook pro will not charge when I am using it.

    My macbook pro will not charge when I am using it. My battery will say "charged" then "not charging" and it goes back and fourth. It says "Power Source: Power Adapter". But when I use my pro it will loose the power source then reconnect a second later to it. This problem is getting annoying because I have to stop using my macbook pro to charge it.

    Reset SMC.

  • Macbook pro says not charging but still the battery is charging

    macbook pro says not charging but still the battery is charging

    This isn't reference in any of the online support material that I've seen. Do you have a link to support this? Just curious is all.
    I had a similar issue on my wife's '09 MBP. Initially I thought it was the battery seeing as it's an older machine, but we tried resetting the SMC (after a bunch of other suggestions) and that seems to have done the trick.

  • My Macbook Pro will not charge. I have tried other charges and nothing. Can the MagSafe port go bad? Is that expensive to repair?

    My Macbook Pro will not charge. I have tried other charges and nothing. Can the MagSafe port go bad? Is that expensive to repair?

    The port can fail. Internal boards can fail. Batteries can fail. All with the result that no charging occurs. 
    You can try Resetting the System Management Controller and you can try Troubleshooting MagSafe adapters. 
    But usually you will have to take the mac in to a service place for testing.  It can get expensive, although occasionally it is not.
