Z50 Battery (Plugged in, Charging) but isn´t charging Tried everything

I have this laptop for 3 weeks and battery stop working. First time i notice it it was stucked on 55%, but it isn´t in lifetime battery mode. Then i tried to discharge it and it was same at 34% 4% and now on 0%. I tried to reinstal energy manager, use battery calibration in energy manager and now its about 18 hours and its not complete and nothing changes. I also tried to unnistal Microsoft ACPI and that dont help either after reinstall. Any ideas ?

Hi Majan01,
Welcome to Lenovo Community!
As per the query we understood that you are facing issue with the battery not charging in your Z50 laptop.
As you have mentioned that the battery is not charging as you also performed to reinstall the Microsoft ACPI software. Please try to reset the battery gauge and check for the issue. Also check with other battery and also try this battery in other system.
Also try to charge the system with different adapter and check for the issue.
Hope this helps! Do post us back for further queries.
Best regards,
Ashwin.S

G 505S "Plugged in and not charging" (Tried everything!!!)

Hi everyone!
I hope someone in the community can help me out. I've tried calling in to Lenovo and I've only been disapointed and VERY ANGRY with Lenovo so I hope someone here can help me.
My G505s has never properly charged the battery. The battery icon says "plugged in and not charging". I've tried everything, replacing the battery, uninstalling the Microsoft Battery driver, uninstalling Lenovo energy management etc.
I've tried the work arounds I've found online to no sucess.
Does anyone have any ideas? Has anyone ran in to this with the G505s and found a fix?
Thanks!

hi apb1019
Welcome to the Lenovo Forums and sorry to hear about your battery problem.
The plugged-in not charging message is usually triggered when the Lenovo Energy Management / Lenovo Energy Manager is set to Optimized Batteyr Health (Win8) or Conservation Mode (Win8.1)

Just to verify:
1. When you uninstalled the energy management software, are you getting a 0% available, plugged-in not charging message or 60% available, plugged-in not charing ?
- Link to picture
2. Have you tried charging the battery (for an hour or two) while the computer is off?
- Link to picture
If the battery doesn't get fully charge while the computer is off then it's likely that the battery is failing. In this case, I recommend you contact Lenovo one more time on how to go about getting the unit serviced (they'll most likely send you a new battery).

Do you have service pack 4 installed on your windows? If not you need to get that downloaded and installed from microsoft.
To view which service pack that you have installed, right click on My Computer (either the icon on your computer desktop or in your windows start bar) and then left click on "properties." Your service pack information should be displayed in the window that comes up.

IPod don't react or want to charge (tried everything)

My iPod 30Gb just one day after 3 months if using just stop react any buttons. It shows me do not disconnect screen and don't want to be charged.
tried all procedures listed in troubleshooting. What is wrong ?

my iPod is having the same problem, and it's the same model, 3 months old too. it won't charge, won't reset, won't anything. maybe the battery is defective or the problem is with the recent firmware update (other people here on the forum are having similar problems)
take the ipod to the apple support and get them try restore the previous firmware version

My battery is down to 10%. I have tried everything to re-set. It keeps on showing that it is charging and 10%. I have had it plugged in overnight... I have turned it off -- used the two switches together -- nothing seems to work. What should I do next?

How do I get my iphone to charge and not be stuck on 10% battery?
I have tried turning it off, turning it off with holding down both switches, charging it on different places for hours and now have it hooked up charging on my computer.

Create a backup then restore the device as new, and test the issue.

Ipod wont turn on or charge tried everything

My ipod isn't turning on it was working fine then it just randomly turned off. It wasn't dead i just left it charging over night and when i woke up it wass a black screen and itunes wont regonize it either. Its a 3rd gen its the newest white one with a camera and its 8 GB.I have tried to reset it and press the home and power button and also tried to plug it in and wait but nothing as worked.I havent went to an apple store yet but i really need help.

See if placing the iPod in Recovery Mode will allow iTunes to see the iPod so that you can restore the iPod.
otherwise, time for an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

HT201412 How to drain my iPhone 5 battery as my screen won't respond and tried everything else

So my screen randomly stopped responding but lucky for me I was in the apple store when this happened so they treys to restart it by pressing the power button and home button . But my power button don't work so when I got home I tyres to restore it on the laptop and that didn't work so now I'm trying to drain the battery any Ideas to drain the battery but I can't get on my phone from the lock screen but I can use Siri to turn on music etc.

This is an all volunteer user-to-user support forum. Sometimes it takes longer than 6 minutes for people to reply.
How was the Apple Store able to reset your phone by pressing and holding the power and Home buttons if the power button is broken? If your power button is broken, you should get it fixed.

Working ipad BUT black screen, have tried everything, please help

Please help. I have an ipad with a black screen. The screen works because when I reset by holding the buttons down for 10 seconds, it restarts and I can see the Apple logo. When I touch the screen, voice is on, if I try turning off the voice with 3 finger tap, the voice turns off but the screen is still blank. I have tried updatinf the ipad's software via ITunes, but that has not made a difference. I have also tried to restore from backup, but it wants my password and there is no way to input it with a blank screen! I cannot think of anything else that I can do. I ipad clearly is working but without the screen showing I cannot seem to do anything?
Advice appreciated.

I have solved this now by going into an Apple store.
They basically had to do a hard reset as they admitted their was some sort of software problem. They connected the ipad via Itunes, held the home and power button together for 8 seconds, then released the power button whilst still holding onto the the home button.
This then opens up various menu prompts on your PC/Mac to have a complete reload.
I am afraid to restore the ipad back from a previous version in case the problem happens again. At least it is working now though!

My battery will not charge when plugged in to power supply. What's up??

I recently purchased a new MacBook Pro from my college, and have barely had it two months. One morning I started it up and it would not hold a charge. It will not remain on unless it is plugged into the power supply. If I unplug it while it's on it immediately shuts down.
Sometimes if it's plugged into the power supply for a while it will shut itself down un-announced.
I'm very frustrated, mostly because I just bought it and had Snow Leopard installed and everything. The message on my battery status simply says (Not Charging), though the icon says it's fully charged, and the light on the power supply is green. I'm very confused.
Any idea what's going on and how I can fix it? Is the battery simply not connecting, or is it shot already?

As the original post stated, "One morning I started it up and it would not hold a charge. It will not remain on unless it is plugged into the power supply. If I unplug it while it's on it immediately shuts down."
This is exactly what's happened to mine this morning. Last night everything is fine, remember seeing about 5 hrs remaining on the battery, plug it up but this morning will not remain on unless its plugged in. If I unplug it, it immediately shuts down.
My first thought was somehow I didn't plug it up or there was something wrong with the plug itself and the battery was drained but then I realized its working with the power cord so that's not the problem, only when on the battery.
How can a battery just crap out overnight???

New battery does not charge completely

Hi, I recently purchased a third-party battery that worked fine for the first few times and then started to act up. It will charge for about 5% and then the charger LEDs turn green, and I have to manually pull the battery out of the computer, and put it back in before it will continue to charge another 5%. I can completely charge the battery in this manner, but I have to sit by the computer for 2 hours until it finally is completed. The original Apple battery still charges just fine. Is there a way to calibrate the battery? I have reset the PMU, and tried everything else that I can think of. I called the battery's manufacturer, and they said to run the "Battery Configuration Wizard." Sounds like Windows to me! They told me that it was my computer, not the battery. I'm not sure what else to try.
Thanks in advance!

Hi there, Robert!
Actually, my battery was from www.mrbattery.com, and it was just a generic battery that is made in China... My guess is that the internals for these cheaper 3rd-party batteries are all from the same manufacturer...
We (My dad and I) did some more testing, and we both concluded that the actual circuit-board in the battery is messed up... There is nothing that I know of that can help this problem from the external side if things: i.e. charging/discharging. What I finally ended up doing, (since my original battery was really dead) was to carefully open up both batteries, and (dad did the soldering:-) unsolder the Apple "smart-board" and resolder it into the 3rd-party one. (after unsoldering the original board in that battery, of course.) You'll have to transfer the actual battery cells to the Apple-style case, because on mine, the buttons and charge LEDs were different, and all that is on the board. I hope all this makes sense!!! You'll also have to be very careful of the circuit board when cutting the case open, as it is right up against the outer plastic.
If you would like, I can send you some detailed instructions of our procedure...
Hope some of this helps!!!

My ipod doesnt have headphones in but it says it is and i cant hear anything ive tried everything but nothing works help!!

My ipod says theres headphones in but there isnt ive tried everything but nothing works help!!!

- Try cleaning out/blowing out the headphone jack. Try inserting/removing the plug a dozen times or so. There is a little switch in the headphone jack that disconnects the speaker when the headphone jack is inserted.
Try the following to rule out a software problem
- Reset the iPod. Nothing will be lost
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup
- Restore to factory settings/new iPod.
- Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store. Seems you have a bad headphone jack.
Apple Retail Store - Genius Bar
If not under warranty Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one for this price. They do not fix yours.
Apple - iPod Repair price
A third-party place like the following will replace the jack for less. Google for more.

My ipad is flat and when I plug it in to charge it just repeatedly turns on and then turns off but isn't charging. I tried to plug into itunes but it just goes through the same ritual and can't maintain connection to itunes. What should I do ?

1. Reset iPad
2. Try another wall socket
3. Try another cable (make sure it's an original Apple cable)
4. Try another charger (make sure it's an original Apple charger)
5. Clean Lightning port with compress air or new paint brush
