Lets start off by checking the state of the battery and it's charging. Download this great app: CoconutBattery post a screenshot of the main window here so we can see it too.

In addition, lets inspect the MagSafe charger to make sure its the correct one and the connectors are in good shape. Review this Apple T/N: Apple Portables: Troubleshooting MagSafe adapters
