New macbook pro won't turn on unless it's plugged in and won't charge

I just bought a new MacBook Pro and it won't turn on unless it's plugged in.  When I unplug it, it immediately shuts down. It's not my charger because my brother has the same laptop so I tried his and it still doesn't work.  The battery light on the charger is green and it says on the top of the screen not charging.
This is what it says about my battery:
Charge Information:
  Charge Remaining (mAh):          5024
  Fully Charged:          No
  Charging:          No
  Full Charge Capacity (mAh):          5780
  Health Information:
  Cycle Count:          0
  Condition:          Normal
  Battery Installed:          Yes
  Amperage (mA):          0
  Voltage (mV):          12197

  • My computer won't turn on unless it's plugged in

    Ok, so i left my computer in sleep mode on my desk while I was gone today. When I came back, my computer was dead. I was confused because I didn't leave it on so there was no reason it should have died. Now, it will not turn on unless it is plugged in, and if I unplug it, it will turn off. It doesn't turn all the way, because it will bring back all my data when I plug it back in, but the screen turns grey and it takes a few seconds to do so. Also, just for more information, when my computer is in sleep mode, the white light on the front stops blinking when I unplug the computer.
    Any help? I'm so confused and slightly frustrated.

    I would have tried that first, but my computer isn't like other MacBook Pros I have seen, the bottom is one piece of aluminum, there is no way to just pop the battery out. Do I need to unscrew the screws and take the entire bottom off?

  • I HATE my new MACBOOK PRO, it will not let me open any PDF files and I downloaded the ADOBE READER three freaking times and it keeps saying that all the files are corrupt. I would rather have my 2008 Dell at this point. what is wrong with this thing

    I HATE my new MACBOOK PRO, it will not let me open any PDF files and I downloaded the ADOBE READER three freaking times and it keeps saying that all the files are corrupt or damaged. I would rather have my 2008 Dell at this point. what is wrong with this thing

    Perhaps the PDF files are corrupted.
    Hit the command key and spacebar, a blue Spotlight in the upper right hand corner appears, now type Preview and press return on the Preview program.
    Now you can try opening the PDF's from the file menu and see what's going on.
    If they are corrupted, perhaps they are trojans from your Windows PC or gotten from a bad location online.
    Download the free ClamXav and run a scan on the possibly infected folder.

  • IPhone 4 won't turn on unless it's plugged in.

    My iPhone won't turn on unless it's plugged into either my speaker dock or a portable charging phone case and even then, it gets stuck on a reset loop about five times before it fully turns on. When it does turn on, it tells me to activate the phone with iTunes. But then I can't unplug it or it'll just turn off.
    I've tried plugging the phone into a wall charger and my laptop, but it gets stuck on the reset loop and doesn't even turn on.
    I've tried to do a restore (both normally and on DFU mode) but it always comes up with Error 2000.
    I've tried to use TinyUmbrella to fix it; doesn't work.
    I've tried to replace the battery - same problem exists.
    Please help?

    By replacing the battery (either yourself or a 3rd party) you have voided all rights to support from Apple and these forums.
    Good luck.
    Replace the device.

    i am buying a new macbook pro but i want to fit my own ram memory and solid state hard drive , will apple permit this without voiding the waranty.

    yes you can do it and not void the warranty.  Those are the only hardware changes that Apple permits.  Instructions on how to upgrade the ram and remove and replace the hard drive are even included in the owners manuals for MacBook Pros.

  • Why do the fans on my new Macbook Pro Retina always turn on?

    I recently purchased a new Macbook Pro 15'' Retina and the fans seem to, at random, start spinning at full speed...even when the computer is relatively cold and there are very little system process running.  This computer is replacing a similar system that was stolen and this never happened with the old computer.
    I've tried restarting, checking activity monitor for anything taking up a lot of resources and haven't found anything.  Here are a few screenshots of temp information and fan speed:
    Is this normal?  Should I exchange it?  Any advice?
    Thanks,
    Steven
    System Specs:
    Processor  2.6 GHz Intel Core i7
    Memory  16 GB 1600 MHz DDR3
    Graphics  Intel HD Graphics 4000 512 MB
    Software  OS X 10.8.2 (12C3103)

    You are not the first to report such a situation with a retina MBP.  I would exchange it for a new one if I were in your position.  You could try a SMC reset, but I'm not sure it will cure the problem.

  • HT1338 Migration assistant problems setting up new Macbook pro.... System preferences will not open and Mozilla products do not open "profile missing"???

    Used migration assistant to set up new Macbook pro from old macbook pro. Many "profile" problems.
    Will not even open "System Preferences" for user whose profile info was transferred. (Will for "Administrator")
    Cannot use Firefox or Thunderbird, profile missing.
    Help???                                            

    Launch the Console application by entering the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search, and look under "User Diagnostic Reports" for crash logs related to the application(s). Select the most recent one and post the contents -- the text, please, not a screenshot. For privacy’s sake, I suggest you edit out the “Anonymous UUID,” a long string of letters, numbers, and dashes in the header of the report.

  • My iPod 5th gen touch won't turn on after running out of battery and then being charged for several hours

    I was using my ipod touch 5th gen, when it ran out of battery. I wasn't able to charge it all night because the lighting adapter plug broke, and so this battery sign and the lighting charger sign kept popping up telling me to charge it. It ran like that all night and when I woke up it wouldn't turn on at all. I tried plugging it into a few different computers to charge it, and after several hours it still won't turn on. I tried plugging it into my computer with iTunes up, but it still would not charge and my computer would not recognize that it was there. Anyone want to give me some tips?
    Thanks

  • My macbook pro won't turn on unless it's plugged in

    I downloaded the latest software (mountain lion) about 2 weeks ago and ever since my laptop has been a bit slow. today when i was at uni, it wouldn't turn on at all despite having battery (the green lights on the side were lighting up). when i got home i plugged in it and it was fine. the battery icon in the top right has a X through it and when you click it, it says no batteries available!! not sure what's caused this!!

    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
    The MacBook Pro doesn't detect the battery. First, to know if it's a software issue, reset the SMC > http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3964 Do the same with the PRAM > http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1379
    If it doesn't work, you should consider the option to take the MacBook to an Apple Store or reseller. I highly doubt that this problem is related to Mountain Lion
