Otherwise, you should probably take your computer in to a service place to be tested, since there a a few possible causes of this behavior.

    This didn't work for me, so I did a bit of searching and TONS of pages later in google, I found an answer. Here are the steps for people who also were in my situation:
    1. Take off bottom case
    2. Unplug battery - blurry image here: http://i.ytimg.com/vi/03cC79r5Dx4/0.jpg
    3. Press and hold power button for 5 seconds
    4. Plug a charger in, and it should start booting up
    5. After shutting down again, reconnect the battery and close the case up
    6. It works! (hopefully, if you guys had the same situation I did)

  • My macbook pro will not charge. the charger blinks with a dim green light and the computer will not turn on

  • 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.

    Suddenly, my MacBook Pro will not connect to the Internet--even when I take the cable from the Time Capsule and plug it into the laptop...

    Disable your AirPort and enable in a second. Or check, maybe you need to type in correct digits in; Settings/Network/Advanced/Configure...

    Actually it sometimes gets a little further, the display will dim and the pointer will appear and then whoop it will turn off. if i do a verbose start up, it will finish all the steps, the white screen will appear and dim and then it will turn off.

  • My macbook pro will not charge or turn on. When I plug in the charger nothing happens and the light doesn't turn on. What can I do?

    Some basics please, what vintage is your MBP, have you plugged anything else into the wall socket to verify that it is live? which light doesn't turn on, the charger or the MBP?
    Hold the power button down for 15 seconds, wait for 2 then press it normally and see te MBP it turns on

  • 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.

    Choose the method for:
    "Resetting SMC on portables with a battery you should not remove on your own".
    If this does not help, contact Apple.
    Best.

  • My iphone 4 will not charge and the battery is dead how do i fix this?

    My iphone 4 will not charge and the battery is dead how do i fix this?

    If it's still under warranty, Apple will fix it, but you have to send it to them, so you won't have it for several weeks. If the warranty is expired, they'll still do it, but you'll have to pay for it. Last I heard, it costs $99/S&H.
    That is the ultimate defect in the iPhone. No other cellphone has a battery that is not user-replaceable. I won't buy a phone that doesn't.

  • My iPod shuffle, which I prchased in 2009 only worked for a short time so I put it back in the box and just recently took it out. I will not charge and the power light does not come on. It was faulty from the start and thought I was out the money I paid.

    My iPod shuffle only worked for a short time. It will not charge  and the power light does not come on. Bought it in 2009. Put it back in the box and in my desk. Recently tried to get it to work again but no luck. Anyone else have this problem? Very disappointed with the product although my wifes work perfectly.

    Can't say I haven't done the same kind of thing...keep finding things I had every intention of...
    If you have the chance stop by an Apple Retail store and talk to them about it...they often work deals for replacement of out of warranty non-working items for prices around half price.  Won't hurt to stop by and see what they will do for you.

  • My MacBook Pro will not charge.

    Hi Apple Support Communities!
    I have a 2006 MacBook Pro 1,1.
    This computer is equipped with an Intel Core Duo processor, and 2 gigabytes of 667 DDR2 SDRAM.
    It works absolutely fine, but I am having small problem with it: it will not charge. Since it is from 2006, Apple considers it to be "Vintage and Obsolete." I have no idea what is wrong with it, and am in need of it in proper working condition by this August. I do not have the original install discs for it, and have no way of running the hardware test to see if there are any problems. What do you all suggest? Thank you in advance!

    joncwyatt,
    you can contact Apple directly to purchase a replacement pair of grey DVDs for your MacBook Pro, which has (among other things) its model-specific Apple Hardware Test. (The Apple stores don’t stock the grey DVDs.)
    Was your new battery sold by Apple, or was it manufactured by a third-party? Have you tried purchasing a different battery for your MacBook Pro, to make sure that the problem is not with the new battery currently in your possession?
