Turn it back on and before you see the Apple logo on your screen, press and hold the Shift key until the Apple logo appears. Id try booting to Safe Mode: Turn off your Mac. And there are others in the same StackExchange thread sharing their own experiences with the problem and the fix. It could be a corrupt USB kernel extension. Again moving power back to the right side, restoring State B, resolves the problem immediately.Īmazingly, this is actually a thing that happens. Moving power back to the left side, restoring State A, quickly restores the temperatures and kernel_task again comes back after 3-4 minutes. The left side temperature drops and the kernel_task goes away within about 15 seconds. Tip 6: Force shut down and then restart Surface of 2 - Laptop suddenly shuts down with no warning when on battery power.
State B cures the kernel_task problem by moving power from the left ports to the right.
About 3-4 minutes later the dreaded kernel_task high CPU usage starts. You can see the Thunderbolt Left Proximity temperature sensor rise quickly.

State A a USB-C hub (a mouse and keyboard, plus power) and a USB-C HDMI 2.0 adapter, both on the left side. It's game over at that point with fans spinning up and CPU usage skyrocketing. So warm that the Thunderbolt Left Proximity sensor sees the increase in temperature and the kernal_task process appears. The adapter is superior to the non-USB 3 Apple Lightning to USB Camera Adapter (MD821AM/A model A1440).Some digital cameras attempt to recharge when connected, the extra draw of power causes the iPad/iPhone error: 'Cannot Use Device: The connected device requires too much power.
When you're charging using the left-hand ports and have other accessories plugged into the same side, things get a bit too warm. I'm not going to get into all the nitty-gritty of what's going on – you can read Adam's post for that – but the tl dr is pretty simple. the only thing i have plugged into a usb port is a keyboard. The powered hub will have a wall wart that provides power via the usb ports.But I know you're asking the obvious question – what's this got to do with charging? It's a good question and one that was answered emphatically in the same thread. When you disconnect the device drawing too much power, your other USB devices will be enabled again.' I'm using a macbook pro, which is about a year old. If you want to plug the iphone into the keyboard and the keyboard doesn't have enough power or the hub in it isn't powered, you will need to purchase a powered USB hub, and then plug that in. Look at the usb info, it will show you how much power is provided / available. The four USB-C/Thunderbolt 3 ports on the 16-inch MacBook Pro aren’t proprietary Apple ports so there’s a huge market of third-party adapters and accessories too. For example, if you connect a Macbook Air charger (45W) to a 15 MacBook Pro (85W charger required), you could get the battery not charging notification.

If the port in question is being shared, you might try charging on a different port.Īlso take a look at Apple Menu -> about this mac -> more info -> system report The power adapter barely provides enough power to run your MacBook, but not enough power to charge the battery. Check whether there are other devices sharing the same USB High-speed Bus. In Hardware > USB, find the known device in the USB Device Tree. To find out which ports are being shared with which devices, plug in a known USB device and open System Information (System Profiler on older versions of OS X). Problem: The provided USB cables are too short. so it is requesting more power from the bus then the bus can provide.Īlso on your MacBook Pro all USB ports aren't created equal, depending upon the port you use, it may have less power available since it is being shared with some internal USB devices (such as the webcam and SD card reader). In such a case, consider trying a powered USB hub that includes a power cable. There is only so much power available on the the USB Bus to power Devices, An iphone needs a decent amount of power to charge and some of that power is already being used to power the keyboard.
