The amperage is so wrong, and then what is happening with Apple?

Just took my MacBook Air into the Apple Store after installing Mavericks. Had the same problems as the posters above-Will run on power adapter, but no charge happening and no lights at all on the magsafe connector. Went into the Apple Store and they gave me a new power cord--it lit up right away--and the tech thought my problem was fixed but I showed him that my computer was NOT charging and the message on the computer under the battery icon said 'battery is not charging'. They told me it might be an issue with my battery--and that they would look it over today and give me a call tomorrow (thankfully its still under warranty). The strange thing is I have NEVER had an issue with my computer or charger so its odd that right when I downloaded Mavericks this would happen. Will let you know what they end up doing.
