Just bought the 16" MBP M1Pro and noticed when I "shutdown" the MacBook, close the lid, plug in the supplied MagSafe charger to the Mac, the MagSafe indicator light flashes amber and making a connect/disconnect sound from the Mac. Now if the Mac is powered on, charging works as it should. Spoke with Apple Support on this and they have no clue on this type of issue. Anyone else experiencing this issue?
MacBook Pro (2020 and later)
That is an encouraging statement
It doesn't help, have tried this since last month on 3 different devices. Nothing to do with this optimized charging.
True you are right
But the apple engineer team is investigating the issue
You have camped-on at page 6 of a six-page thread on this issue.
The current work-around is to connect the charger before you close the lid or shut down.
The problem is obviously in 140w brick. I have another one , 100W, USB-c from my Bang&olufson speaker- tried it - no problem! Apple, apple… shame on you!
Booting into the recovery mode can only temporarily resolve the issue we have to wait for macOS 12.1update which should be released soon
Sorry my statement that I has posted is speculative. I did not realize that it is can not be posted
Thanks for the response, it was strange that booting into recovery mode would fix it. I guess just wait for next software release, you would think they would be pushing that out ASAP...
There was a software update this morning, just downloaded will have to see if this truly resolves the issue..
As per the release note, the new release MacOS 12.1 should fix this issue
Yes it has
Finally :)
Macs have ALWAYS used smart charging.
For example, If you battery is over 92 percent, starting charge cycle is extremely unlikely, because it is not needed yet.
I have upgraded to 12.1 and my charging cable is still flashing amber.
MacBook Pro 16" (2021) M1Pro Charging issue?
