My macbook pro is not charging, what could cause this problem?, my macbook pro is not charging, what could cause this problem?
I am so worried because my laptop is a month old I cant be having battery problems FML
If your computer is only a month old, you're still under warranty. Take it into your local Apple Store or an AASP and have them run diagnostics. You could have a bad battery, a hincky power supply, who knows? It's rather difficult to diagnose these things over the Internet - take it in and let the professionals handle the problem.

So I bought my MacBook Pro 13 inch with AppleCare protection about 2 weeks ago and from the moment it came out of the box I noticed that the battery was draining very quickly. Perhaps in the midst of my excitement of having a new computer I ignored it thinking it could somehow get better but obviously it has not. Average after being fully charged from being dead the batter lasts maybe an hour to an hour and a half. I'm assuming apple will take care of this seeing as it came to me like this but that's exactly my question, will they? Any information about what they cover or how to go about getting this fixed is very much appreciated!
You are covered under the 1-year warranty.
You have a 14 day grace period to exchange it for one that works.
Past that, get it looked at

The battery for my Macbook Pro 13 "has only 121 cycles and is not charging anymore, my Mac is telling me that it is necessary to exchange it. You have any tips for me to find out what might be happening with my battery?
Guys, i am actually trying using a solution provided by the article shared by dominic23,
It says "Another option is to get an ionizer to help the atmosphere in the workplace be more conductive and pull charges away from contact surfaces, including yourself."
So in my home, we have such device that could clean the air using ion, and i am using it in my room...
Result: BANG!!! The electric shock on my macbook has gone!! I don't really care about physics but somehow it works! You guys should give it a try.
Thanks again dominic23 -
My MacBook Pro does not save bettery.I use 100% bettery charge 3-4 hrs instead of 7 hrs.what could be the problem?
7 hours mentioned is possible when run under lab conditions.
Running GPU intensive applications will decrease battery runtime.

If you were using Apple's BootCamp and received this message, quit it and open Disk Uility in your Applicaitons/Utilities folder.
Select the Macintosh HD partition on the left and select Erase and Erase Free Space > Zero option and let it complete (important) this will check the spare space for bad sectors that can cause issues formatting partitions.
Once it's completed, try creating a partiton again in BootCamp.
If that doesn't work, then hold command option r keys down while connected to a fast internet connection, Internet Recovery should load (spinning globe) and then in that Disk Utility, select your entire internal drive and click > First Aid > Repair Disk and Permissions.
reboot and attempt Bootcamp again.
If you still get a error, it might be that you have OS X data on the bottom area where BootCamp partition needs to go. This would occur if you had the drive or computer for a long time or wrote a large amount of files to the drive and nearly filling it up and then reduced some, but it left traces in the area BootCamp needs to go.
To fix this
BootCamp: "This disc can not be partitioned/impossible to move files."

I bought 2 new memory card to 4 grams each - replace them in your MacBook Pro 13-inch but it will not turn on - If you are installing a card for 2 and one for 4 d all works - tell me what could be the problem
I assume that you have installed new RAM in your MBP.
It would be helpful if you indicated the EXACT model/year MBP that you have.
What the the RAM specifications that you are trying to install?

When I sync my phone with my macbook pro, there are "3,307 items that could not be synced". What do I do?
What you should do is figure out why no songs will sync:
Is there an Apple ID problem? That's the most likely reason. Maybe you haven't signed in to your Apple ID on iTunes. Maybe the Apple ID on your computer differs from that on your iPhone.
Have you been syncing your iPhone to some other computer? It only syncs to one computer.
Are you using the latest iTunes? The current version is 11.0.5. -

I have a 13 inch Macbook Pro. I have bought it just 5 months back. All of a sudden, i am unable to turn the mac on. It doesn't even get Charged. What could be the issue ?
If you're unable to turn it on, let alone even charge it then it definitely sounds like a battery issue to me. I'd wait for someone else to reply just to be sure but I think somehow the battery by the sounds of it must have died. However, I could be very wrong.
If you're still under applecare which you should be then it should be an easy free fix. Hope this helps! -

Take it back to the Apple Store for repair since it's still in warranty.

Choose the method for:

If this does not help, you may have to take the MBP to the Apple Store to have it checked.
