Please check System Profiler -> Power for Battery condition. I will see similar behavior on both OS X and Windows, but within a few minutes, it starts charging.

If you use the MagSafe-to-MagSafe2 adapter, please ensure the pins are clean and are sitting properly. Try wiggling the connection gently, till the power adapter LED lights up.
