You saved my day. It is such a poor thing that Mac doesn't even mention this issue on their page.
Thanks for this video - I have just had this issue, and it suddenly happened overnight. Nothing about the macbook or the charging lead had changed, other than a macbook update. This really helps me narrow down what to do next, thanks again.
Most welcome 🤗
Apple. You need to accept your mistake and let people know about this on your web pages. Also, since the product was shoddy, provide a way for the users to get a new charger (at your cost).
Having the same issue with my Macbook Pro M2 2023 16". Thank you for making this video, helped me identify the problem immediately
I'm also have you fixed it?
did you fix it?@@Marcos-hg8kl
Thank you so much, I was wondering what was going on but thanks to you I can finally charge my macbook
Thanks a lot dude! It bothered me for quite a few months until I saw your video…
I got 3 pin adapter with my mac pro 14". But my whole house/home electric wire is not earthing proof. That is why i feel still MacBook electric shock leakage issues. Could you please tell me any other solutions? Thanks in Advance
I just got my MacBook Pro 2022 16" last week. It's updated to Montery 12.0.1 and this problem is definitely still happening 100%. Took me forever to come to this same conclusion since I don't have another power source to swap out with handy. It does charge over USB-C fine with MagSafe using an alternate source with enough output, however, oddly, a USB-C to USB-C cable will also charge the MacBook closed and off using the same problematic charger. It won't charge with the MagSafe open, closed, off, on and shows the same exact symptom as in this video.
I'm sorry but your macbook pro 16" is from 2021 ;) 2022 models isnt in production yet
How exactly do I get it replaced? I just bought mine this year and it’s doing the same thing amh
Same problem here, with my brandnew Macbook Pro 16" M2/ 2023, Magsafe3 connector.
It will charge if you use an USB-C to USB-C and plug it into an USB-C port, but the MAgsafe refuses.... and this after 3 weeks.... I only loaded 3 times. This gives me a bad feeling after having made an investment of a few 1000's. Swapping out with another charger and Magsafe gives the same problem. Maybe I should try this solution... But what is the use of having a magsafe then...??
This saved me so much hassle thank you so much!!
Quite dissapointed with the Apple’s magsafe charger quality. I just bought a Macbook Air M2 5 days ago, and the cable suddenly unable to charge. My magsafe keep blinking red. I tried several trouble shoot tips on RUclips but still not working. If I plug in a type C cable with my phone charger it could charge my mac just fine. The problem is on the magsafe
if my battery is red and when i plug the charger - it keeps turning on and off and keep sending notifications of on and off. white laptop is on. how to fix that
This video is so helpful!! I almost bought another charger
I was facing same issue today, i lost the hope after seeing your issue, as my laptop is few years old and there is no longer any warranty on this. However after so many tries and blowing air through the USB-C plug many times, finally I took a small colouring brush and cleaned the internal pins, it started working again. But after 10 minutes problem recurred again. I think most likely internal pin is displaced or loose.
Thanks. I got my dead mac (2021 16") powered on by plugging in magsafe wire in other type-c charger, after that plugged the wire back to 140w apple brick, working fine now.
Thanks 👍
Suddenly i have been facing this problem on macbook air m3 what shoud i do? Please help me 😢
Absolute legend. Thought it would be another costly mistake. Apple are really going down in my estimations
Thanks. It is very helpful.
Thank you so much you are a true hero
Suddenly i have been facing this problem on macbook air m3 what shoud i do? Please help me 😢 3:56
All Macbook m1 pro also get charge with any USB type C and in my case power brick working fine issue with mag-safe port or cable as I am able to charge my macbook using thunderbolt USB type C with same power brick.
On my M1 this problem is intermittent and I have been at Apple store once and the couldnt find any problem. A few months later it stopped charging. I saw a clip that you can charge via the usb-c connection with a phone charger.
nice finding and debugging !
Thank You Buddy it really works for me
I tried chargering it with c type charger and once laptop is up then my problematic charger(MagSafe 3) started working
Didn't expect this at all ty for this
Sir I charged it from power juice pack (100%) same problem what to do
THANK YOU SO MUCH!
Hey instead of the usb I have the detachable head pls reply make a vid about this
Thank you brother same issue faced with my macbook air m2
What's the make/model of your power extension thing (with PD port)
amzn.to/3cuor7Z
It's not working.. what to do
Thank you!
May macbook pro 2020 has a same problem. I brought it to apple service center and they want me to pay for half of the price of the laptop around 750 to 800 dollars but I refused 😢 Its like buying a new a one. The battery charge cycle was just 70.
I have this issue 2023 MacBook M2 Pro max not getting what I paid for.
Still having the problem on macOS 12.3
Your videos are so professional and you are taking lots of efforts and hand work. Hats Off
Good thing I wanted a month for review before purchasing my supposed to come Jan- feb hopefully apply realize this problem n solve it before they put mine together an fix ship
thank you sm this saved my life :)))
Is not always the case. For me it is the cable. I plugged into other power sources and it kept happening. If I plug my usbc to usbc cable, it works.
how long does it take before the computer will have enough power to turn on? it stopped blinking from doing this but pressing any keys turns the orange light off and the computer isn’t turning on. it’s been plugged in for about 15 mins
Did it work?
FIXED: I actually plucked out the actual plug from the charging head and replaced it and that worked. Got me a new one.
Since this is a hardware issue and probably can't be solved by a software update, will you be returning your macbook until they fix this?
The problem is with the charging brick.
So,won’t be returning the MacBook Pro.
Thank u i was going crazy before i saw this
It is screwing up your Mac Logic Board by doing this check with other adapter like 91 W
it's weird cos I have a brand new M2 max 16 inch since 18 days and same issue, + if the lid is open and I ask for a shutdown, the Mac will always restart if magsafe is attached, I bought a different magsafe cable, I've tried other power bricks from apple and I did this too plugged in to an Anker 140 watts 737 battery and it didn't fix the issue ... so it's weird, all was working fine for me until I updated my Mac to Sonoma public beta 4 .. since then I downgraded to Ventura, tried everything I could, went into diagnostic mode etc... nothing have changed ... So this issue who seems to have been fixed via software update for most user a year ago on M1 Max , is happening again but with M2 max now ... im' will return it to Apple tomorrow , but if mine would have the same result on another PD charger , I would keep it , but no matter what I use , same issue..
same issue, i can´t return it. :( Macbook pro M2 Max
In my case I change my magsafe cable with type C, the original macbook charger is working. I think my MagSafe cable is the problem.
Magsafe just stopped working on my 16. Have to charge with USB c. This is on top of the issue of getting shocks while charging with all macbooks chargers without earthing pin. Total trainwreck.
My macbook stopped charging all of a sudden by the magsafe charger. I tried charging through the USB C port using the same brick which worked. However, I later tried restarting the macbook and the magsafe started charging fine!
Thank you
I was facing same issue resolved now
How?
thank you so much, I was losing my mind
It happens, when the battery is completely drained out. In my case at least, incountered 2 times. I used my Phone charger to charge it upto 1% and then used the macs original charger. It's working fine.
mi macbook pro stops charging yesterday. m2 max :(
My Macbook is running Monterey 12.3 and this is still happening.
Did you find a solution ? I am having the same problem
i'm Having the same issue here ,it keeps blinking
the cable (Magsafe) seems to work normally when plugged to another charger (Brick)
the 140w charger (Brick) works well charging phones
this is for sure something shady from Apple
Doesn’t work for my M2 air :/
Just bought my Mac and this happening thanks for the help
i had the same issue with my m2 macbook air. the magsafe was just blinking orange i was soo scared coz i got it like just couple of months ago. turs out it was aldente not charging more than my specified limit lol
thank you bro
thank you it's solved mine!!!!!
unbelievable ! did you try with the Apple USB-C 96W or 67W ?
Nope.
Question: How much power does the PD on your extension board delivers? (Voltage and Amp)
Thanks
I wonder the same thing
Muchas gracias! No sabía cómo solucionarlo y tú video me sirvió, eres un genio! Lo repito muchas gracias!! Me salvaste de mandar a repararlo, saludos de chile 🇨🇱
Come on man, it's such an expensive laptop. Who would remove the original adaptor and directly use a power source ?
It's not just about low power, the adaptor keeps lots of things in check and makes the laptop charging secure. Just think if there is Voltage fluctuation your laptop battery is gone
I had the same problem on my macbook pro. But I didn't had a additional USB-C charger. So I plugged the USB-C cable intro the USB-C port of the same MacBook. Makin a circuit. After that the charger worked again. Looks like the charging need a reset and then it works again.
This worked for me as well
@bolderdesign9960 thanks a lot!!!!! This worked for me as well! saviour !
yup, thanks just encountered this on my MBP16 and is now charging after plugging it into my PC LOL
Facing same issue, is it safe to use USB direct
How did u fix it and yes it safe but not good
Same issue here! Already setup for a return. looks like its a bigger problem than I've thought.
What a miss by Apple!
Yes!
Really lacking in the QC department.
But,at least this should help some people use it anyway because not everyone would be in a position to return it owing to may be a busy schedule!
It’s not a “miss” it’s done intentionally so they can scam us for more money.
Thank you
Had me stressing. My Mac was completely dead and it wouldn't charge. I used a iPhone adapter to charge it to about 2-3% then switched it to the normal one and it worked normally.
Thank you!!!!!
you should take off the wrapper that comes on the charging brick. that might make a difference.
Nope.
Check the follow up video.
It has been fixed with the macOS update.
@@Purecast9 Where is the follow up?
@@Joshh3003 check my other video.
@@Purecast9 never fixed it for mine. Still up to date with software. Problem seems to lie with the macbook power brick.
@@Joshh3003 You should go in for a replacement.
Thanks for the tip and it worked for me. Alternatively you can use the usb and plug it into iPhone charger and it works!!
Thanks
thanks bro
Having the same issue here on my MacBook Pro 14' M1 Pro. I've tried on 65W UGREEN adapter and still the same thing happened.
Same issue
I have the same laptop and facing same issue
Quick update. After i update to Sonoma 14.0… i no longer face this issue.
absolutly true
this happening with me even if its powered on 😢
Love from west bengal
For me it’s not charging even when it’s on
Update to the latest version of macOS Monterey
Apple solved this issue with new MacOS update released on 13 Dec, 2021
Yes,posted a follow up video already 😊
My charger on my m1 doesn’t even light up and screen is black. 😢
Hey did you make it work . I have the same problem it’s not powering on or charging
@@TheBoolishCitizen Unfortunately no, 👎🏻
@@TheBoolishCitizen I had to get it replaced at apple . I went for the newer version the M2
@@buniquedoll oh ok I have apple care on it so I might just take it to the Apple Store then I’m just not trying to pay that $200 lol
bought mine 7 days ago and now i have this issue
Same. I charged mine one time with the brick and now it doesn't work.. very frustrating after just spending over $2000
Today my laptop is not charging anymore it is so annyoing since day one i never moved the cable or used other than on my desktop.... Now i have to plug and unplug the cable many times so it works again... I tried to used with a 65w charger and it's the same thing... My macbook 14 ist just 2 weeks old.
Is this on the latest version of macOS?
@@Purecast9 Same here. I’ve got the M1 2021 and it stopped charging after 6 months. Since two days. The orange light is just blinking, not going on and off like in the video. It does not even try to charge and it doesn’t matter if it’s on or off, open or closed. Just not working. 🥺
@@MariaGoJa omg! Same here, I’m so mad. I paid a lot of money, is 6 months old as well. Didi you manage to fix it?
Mine is 10 months old (MBP 16 inch M1). Just stopped charging while I was using it, any suggestions? Could it be the brick?
Mine is 4 months old now and when I plug in the MagSafe cable then nothing happens, no lights whatsoever. I can only charge by using a USB-C cable. Any other bricks don't work either :-(
Same thing 😢
some people at apple need to be shown the door totally unacceptable!
Done supporting this company. 2 month old 1200 dollar computer that doesn’t even work or charge now. Barely even got to use it.
Just update your macOS to Monterey 12.1 and you’ll be able to charge your 2021 MBP 16 even when it is turned oof and the lid is closed.
Thanks!
Will try it.
@@Purecast9 Did you try it and did it work?
Updated os, but the problem remains
@@suisiruy same here 😢
No, its the power brick
Just turn on you computer
Welp, same issue but the issue was my Mac 😢
This is so lame I nearly bought another
So my $3000 laptop cant charge because of a cheap cable. Thanks Apple.
meh, just use a type c type c cable 🤣
