MacBook restarts when charging

Apple is not here on these forums. We are just other regular users such as yourself.

Take your laptop (including charger & charging cable) to an Apple Store or an Apple Authorized Service Provider to be examined. If it needs repaired, then they will provide you with a repair estimate.

Troubleshooting Mac Charge:

Refer to the following....

A. Reset the SMC and your NVRAM:

(Applies to Intel-Based Macs Only): Sometimes when changes are made to the system(i.e. Updates), system configurations (i.e. for Power) become manipulated, technically. So, reset the SMC and NVRAM. Try performing each thrice. It may take sometime, being certain you have the time to perform these resets.

B. Try a New Charger:

• Power & Cables - Mac Accessories - Apple - Select "Mac Compatibility" on the left
• Find the Right Power Adapter and Cable for your Mac Notebook - Apple Support

C. A Few Links to Refer to for Power:

• If your Mac doesn't Turn On - Apple Support

• About Mac Notebook Batteries - Apple Support

• How to Turn your Mac On or Off - Apple Support

• If your Mac Battery won't Charge - Apple Support

There could be several reasons why your MacBook Pro is restarting when charging, including software or hardware issues. Here are some steps you can take to troubleshoot the issue:

1. Check for software updates: Make sure your MacBook Pro is up to date with the latest software updates from Apple. This can often resolve any issues that are caused by outdated software.

2. Reset the System Management Controller (SMC): The SMC controls various hardware functions, including power management. Resetting the SMC can sometimes resolve issues with power management.

3. Check the charging cable and adapter: Make sure the charging cable and adapter are working properly. Try using a different charging cable or adapter to see if the issue persists.

4. Check for overheating: Overheating can cause your MacBook Pro to shut down unexpectedly. Make sure your MacBook Pro is not overheating by checking the temperature in the Activity Monitor app. If your MacBook Pro is overheating, try using it in a cooler environment or using a cooling pad.

If none of these steps resolve the issue, it's possible that there may be a hardware issue with your MacBook Pro. In that case, I recommend contacting Apple support or visiting an Apple Store for further assistance.
