Can I force my macbook pro 2021 to use power adapter instead of battery. It has an 'X' on the battery symbol.
Can I force my macbook pro 2021 to use power adapter instead of battery. It has an 'X' on the battery symbol. The battery is not charging. I want to make a time machine backup, however the message is that the because the battery power is too low it cannot back up to time machine. I want to backup before heading to a apple repairer..I also updated all my software. Tried different cables - mag safe and usb-c. The power source says "Battery". Can I change this to "power adapter". The magsafe is contantly amber, however the macbook is not charging at all. And the fans are constantly running!
MacBook Pro 16″, macOS 14.5
