[QUOTE="Corbab, post: 1035994, member: 126609"] Check the connections on the computer and the power adapter. If any of the pins are damaged, that might be what's lighting up the green light but not the orange one. That's pretty weird though. If you're still under Apple Care, you should probably take it in. I can't think of any user-caused damage that would cause that to happen, so you should be fine on that end. There's also a possibility the battery is shot, although I can't imagine how it would have just gone and not given you any notice. If you happen to have a friend with the same model Macbook or feel like picking up an extra battery on eBay (I think they come pretty cheap, assuming you have an older MB), that might be worth a shot first.
