[QUOTE="zippythecellist, post: 1599058, member: 329218"] I have a mid 2010 macbook pro...bought a new authentic charger from amazon since the cord on my old one was starting to tear. When I used it for the first time, the green light stood on and was dim. So I unplugged it and plugged it back in, then it started working as normal. But today when I went to plug it into a surge protector power strip, it kept going from orange to green over and over. I then unplugged the strip and tried both spots on the outlet the power strip was plugged into, and the same thing happened...any idea how I can fix this? I already tried all the suggestions on apple's website. I know it can't be my battery or a bad outlet since I plugged in my old charger and it works fine. :\ [/QUOTE]
