New battery run dead and now won't charge at all. Put in old battery and system runs fine just that battery is no good.

Old battery in MBP is testing bad so I purchased a new one. When I cycle the battery as soon as it totally drains down it will now not take a charge or even boot my computer with the cord plugged in. I have tried many many dif things to get it to run, so far nothing has worked. I put in the old battery and it boots right up.

  • I just got a new ipod 5 and when I plugged in the charging cord that came with it, it says it is not supported, and may not charge. It worked the first few times, but now it won't charge at all.

    - Try another cable. Some 5G iPods were shipped with Lightning cable that were either initially defective or failed after short use.
    - Try another charging source
    - Inspect the dock connector on the iPod for bent or missing contacts, foreign material, corroded contacts, broken, missing or cracked plastic.
    - Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store. The cable as well as the iPod, is covered by the warranty.

  • My iPad mini won't charge at all. I got it for Chrisrmas and it is still in brand new condition and it was fine but now it won't charge at all! It used to charge in an exact position but now it has stopped altogether...Help!!

    My iPad mini won't charge at all. I got it for Christmas off my dad and it is still in brand new condition. Until the other day it has been working fine but until yesterday or the day before my charger went all funny. In order to charge my iPad mini you had to put the charger in an exact place and if someone so much as touched it it would stop charging because it wasn't in its exact position. But today I tried to charge it again and I tried getting it in the same spot as yesterday but it is not working at all. I have only ever charged my iPad mini in the wall but I have seen posts about people charging it in the USB in an computer. So I thought I would also try that but that hasn't worked either and now my iPad mini won't charge in a plug or USB and I live really far away from an apple store and I can't get a new charger also because I live far away from the store. So what shall I do?

    When and where was the iPad/charger purchased? It's covered by a 1-year warranty.
    The problem may be the USB cable.

  • I think my battery is fried.  It gets really hot sometimes when I charge it now it won't charge at all.  It froze up after the last update and I can't use it at all.

    My phone froze up after last update and I can't use it at all.  I think the battery is fried as well.  It gets really hot sometimes when I charge it and now it won't charge at all.

    Reset, hold both home and power buttons until the iPhone begins to start, usually takes about 10 seconds of holding both buttons. If still nothing try Reset while on Wall Charger, this can take about 20 seconds of holding both buttons while on Charger. If still nothing and you decide to Restore you iPhone with iTunes on computer, you may need to use DFU Mode Restore. Here are steps: Open iTunes on computer. Connect iPhone to computer with USB cable. Hold both Home and Power button, after exactly 10 seconds release the Power Button, keep holding the Home button until iTunes recognizes iPhone in Recovery Mode, usually about 20 seconds time. If the iPhone screen is black, blank this is DFU Mode. Click the Restore button of iTunes. DFU Mode can be difficult to enter sometimes, just keep trying. DFU Mode is a black, blank screen with iTunes saying Recovery Mode.

  • My original Ipad is dead and won't charge at all. I've tried numerous chargers. How do I know if the iPad is "broke"?

    My original Ipad is dead and won't charge at all. I've tried numerous chargers. How do I know if the iPad is "broke"?

    Aside from taking it in to a certified Apple Repair shop, this may be a sign that it is dead.  Or there could some kind of damage to the connectors on the charge port.  I am guessing on that part because I am assuming that the other chargers you have used work for other devices.  It may be time to look into buying a new one if it is dead.

    Your post somehow found its way to a little-viewed forum for an obsolete Apple productivity program. I have asked the Hosts to move you to a more active and appropriate forum for your product.

  • When I go to charge my phone I have to wiggle the charger or prop the charger so it will charge. I went to charge it tonight, now it wont charge at all. what do I do? is it fixable or do I have to get a new phone?

    someone help me! my windows phone won't charge. I have had to prop the charge or wiggle the charger for it to charge. Now it won't charge at all/ fixable? or do I need a new phone?

    You could purchase this Nokia Wireless Charging Cover - Verizon Wireless and this Amazon.com: Nokia DT-900 Wireless Charging Plate - Retail Packaging - Black: Cell Phones & Accessories to charge your phone, but i think you should request a replacement or if you don't want to pay Verizon, ebay has them for like $70 refurbished.

    Sounds like an activation issue. Quite Premiere Pro. Sign out of Creative Cloud. Restart Premiere Pro. Sign back in: http://bit.ly/CC-sign-out
    Hope that works for you.

    Hi,
    I am using German OS therefore maybe the items are called differently in English:
    1) Go into the main menu
    2) Select "Alerts"
    3) select the Profile you like to adjust
    4) Select App Alerts
    5) Select Email
    6) You sould see your 3 mail accounts listed
    7) Select the one you like to "mute" and you can set everything (sound, LED, vibration etc. individually for this acount)
    Hope it helps

  • My ipad won't charge.  All I get is picture of white USB cable and iTunes Logo.

    My ipad won't charge.  I must admit, I did use it until there was only 2% power left and then went and plugged directly into power and not through PC... but it won't charge.  All I get is picture of white USB cable, an arrow and the iTunes Logo.  I have turned off and on again as previous posts but all I get is the picture of the USB cable, arrow and iTunes logo.  Please help...

    I have been relatively patient - 3 hours on charge but all it does is show picture of USB cable and itunes logo. It it were charging you would think that a picture of the charge would come up to indicate status of charge - wouldn't you think?

  • I had my iphone 5c in my lifeproof case in the water and when i took my phone out there was a few drops on it but i didnt worry about it, but now it wont charge at all except to 4% and then it stops and ive had it in rice for 8 days........WHAT DO I DO

    It sounds like the LifeProof case may have leaked.  Did you pay for the Waterproof protection?  If so, you can file a claim with lifeproof, pay the deductable, and get a replacement.
    If you didn't purchase the Waterproof guarantee, if you have Applecare Plus, $79.00 will get you a replacement.  If you don't have AppleCare Plus, then this is a $269.00 replacement lesson.

  • My Iphone 4 won't charge at all

    My Iphone 4 has stopped charging. It started when it had about 60% bettery, I plugged it in to the wall charger and the only thing it did was change the battery icon into a plug instead of a lightning bolt. After that it just kept losing battery until it died. Even when it's dead it'll respond to the charger and the red battery icon with the lightning bolt under it will appear to say it's charging but it won't charge at all nor turn on. I have tried different chords, outlets, even plugging it into my laptop. Before it died I tried the hard reset several times by pressing the home button and lock button at the same time, but nothing happened. Itunes recognized my phone when i plugged it in but it still wouldn't charge. I'd appreciate it if anyone could help me with this problem.

    Get it serviced.
