![]() “There is a charging problem” and “Charging Paused” would be good starting points. I hope Apple decides on some different phrases for two of those statuses. ![]() Still, there’s a really easy fix for this. Apple this morning announced a voluntary recall of MacBook Pro batteries due to potential overheating and safety risk. MacBook owners have been expressing concerns online over the intermittent lack of battery charging on their MacOS powered laptops. After trying each step, give your Mac some time, and check if the battery drain issue has been fixed. Given the prominence that the Battery Health software has received from Apple, I’m surprised that this slipped through the attention to detail net. Follow the steps mentioned below to fix the MacBook Pro battery drain problem. Three different scenarios, all of which offer important feedback to the user, and one single text string. In essence you can get the message “not charging” while you are charging, “not charging” while you are not charging, and “not charging” when you have an issue with the charging hardware. "You might also see “Not Charging" when your Mac isn't getting enough power to charge the battery, such as when it's not using the correct power adapter and cable, or it's plugged into a power source that isn't delivering enough power." Subsequent paragraphs in the support document make it clear why there is confusion around charging under the new system: Apple is voluntarily recalling some older generation 15-inch MacBook Pros due to batteries that may overheat and catch fire. ![]() The failure here is not a failure of the battery, or the charging circuitry, it is a failing of Apple’s user interface.
