Hello,

I just received my new MacBook Pro, and it is dead on arrival. I was wondering if I was making a mistake. I plugged the laptop in, and the power adapter shows a dim green and yellow led light, and the computer is not charging. I push the battery indicator and it does not light up. If you have and info let me know!

Thanks,
Macfan

Wait for a while for it to charge and see what happens when you try to turn it on.

Your MBP should have arrived with a partial charge, so it should boot up, whether you have it plugged in or not. If it doesn't boot up at all, take it to Apple and have it repaired/replaced.
