My battery is at roughly 50% charge and I only have 7 cycles through it, yet I get a (Not Charging) message when I plug it in to the wall.
I've tried a few other bricks that other people own, all of which work to charge their MBP13s, but it doesn't work on mine. I even tried booting to Win7 and it still doesn't charge.
I tried shutting down then holding the power button for a long time, but didn't work.
I tried shutting down then holding shift-control-alt and hitting the power button once, then waiting 5 seconds before turning it on and that didn't work either.
So what do I do?
-
Anyone have an answer? My laptop is slowly dying..

Need to contact Apple supports,sounds like you are going to need service!
-
send it back to them, needs a battery or charging circuit fix
-
Yep, sounds like it's gotta go back
I believe bringing it to an Apple store is probably the quickest way to get it serviced if you're not too far away from one.

Went to Apple, they said they'd have to ship it to the mainland, so 2-4 weeks.
They found and replicated the problem and can't fix it in-store.
It works while plugged in but just doesn't charge, and I'm getting near to finals so I can't really send it to Apple... so I guess I'm stuck with a Mac that doesn't just work.
