Battery Problems

[oldnews]

My magsafe power adapter light has dimmed so badly I cant really tell its on, its green which should mean it's charged but it says its 0% and isn't charging my Macbook but just keeping it awake. I checked the pins and it seems fine is there anything I should be looking for?

HMMM, I know the old ibooks had a dc in board problem. Does a macbook use the same dc board as the ibook did?

if you have a friend with another adapter i would try that, if the problem presists it is most certainly a power problem and should be taken to apple asap so you can avoid doing any permanent damage to the electrical components or the battery.

sounds like a pin isnt making contact.

id just goto the apple store, and plug your laptop into another mag there.

if its yours, theyll just give you a new on on site

I don't know if this would help or not but here you go anyway: Troubleshooting Magsafe power adapters with stuck pins.

If you can't reset it right the article says you have to contact Apple.

Good luck! :girl:
