![]() I'm quite comfortable working inside a Mac, so I am very tempted to crack the MBP open (although I've only been in desktops so far). ![]() I've also gone through the steps on the Apple Portables: Troubleshooting MagSafe adapters with no luck. I've tried holding down the power button for 10 sec., plugging in the power cord, holding down for another 10, and then pressing power button. I've tried a SMC reset, and that does nothing (done it twice). I have a feeling that something with the Fitbit charger being plugged in while the MBP was charging messed something up. And the battery lights wouldn't come on at all. Later in the day on Sunday, I went to open the MBP, and it would not start. But the charger was definitely green when I unplugged it. ![]() I *think* the MBP was charged, but I don't think I checked the battery lights. Next morning when I woke up, the charger light was green. So, I plugged in the charger, the charger light went orange, and the Fitbit (and MBP) started charging. It didn't start charging, so I checked the battery on the MBP. The night before, on Saturday, I went to plug in my Fitbit USB charger to the MBP, like I usually do. Sunday morning is when it started having problems. I last used this MBP on Friday or Saturday. ![]() Last time I checked the battery health (probably a few weeks ago), it was fine (can't remember with what app). Currently, I have the 85W charger plugged into the problem MB Pro and it is flickering orange. This MB Pro's 45W charger works with an older MB Pro I have. I've tried another older magsafe charger (85W) on it, and it does not work either. Sometimes it glows green for a few seconds, and then stops. The battery lights do not come on at all, and when I plug in the charger (45W), the charger light (usually) does not come on. ![]() My poor MacBook Pro ("Core i5" 2.5 13" Mid-2012) will not start-up either on battery or when connected with the mag-safe charger. ![]()
