You ordered the wrong battery, theres two types, your original would have been 11.1v if you check the new one it will be 14.8v. They are not compatable.

If the laptop battery is more than 3 - 4 years old then the battery could be worn out. Rechargeable batteries have a finite number of charge and discharge cycles and will lose their charge capacity over time, until they won't charge up at all.
Check power adapter’s DC plug that connects into the laptop power socket with a multi-meter, the voltage should be slightly higher than the voltage that is printed on the label on the bottom of the adapter. If the voltage is zero or way below the voltage that is printed on the label then the power adapter is faulty and needs to be replaced.
If the adapter is OK then connect it to the laptop and power it up, then look at the power/battery charging LED light and wriggle the power plug in the laptop's power socket. If the power/battery LED light flashes and in a certain position this LED light stays firm, then the power socket is either faulty or it has a dry solder joint where it is connected to the motherboard.
This can be repaired but it requires the laptop to be completely dismantled to get at this power socket and repair. I suggest you get a quote first.

Please help! Just replaced battery in my HP now it says"plugged in,not charging"?

Is the battery all the way charged? If so, it won't charge it any further (hence: "not charging"). If not, it sounds like you have a bad battery.

Battery wil not charge. Ordered new battery, still will not charge, brought new power cord and still will not charge.

Internal issue, if it is possible check to make sure there is power coming out of the prones where the battery sticks in, if you have a tester you will be able to test if there is power going to the battery.

Problems with new laptop battery for my Acer 6920G.

You can't force the battery with a higher charge to work without damaging the computer. If the battery is a direct replacement it should work. If your original charger is not capable of charging the battery you can consider a charger replacement but I suspect the original charger you where using was bad to begin with if that is the case. You can try locating a replacement charger but you need to make sure it is rated for computer so you don't damage the power system.

My Acer 6920 Battery is not being read properly- It says it will only last 1 hour when fully charged in power save mode. However 6months ago [when originally bought] it was being read as 1 1/2 hours. Not...

That is a known issue with that model of computer. The battery is not very good. I recommend taking it to a certified repair technician for an expanded battery.
My cousin has one and using windows 7 he gets about 20 to 30 minutes of battery life on average.
