I'm not sure what the wall adapter would mean if it was red, but maybe you could try the USB part on your computer?
Also, make sure the battery is snuggly screwed in, not too tight, but snug, you should feel the resistance of the posts touching.

Was the battery working fine before you tried to charge it?
Did you check to make sure the end of the battery and the charger have no eliquid on them? Use a tissue and check the little valleys too.
Does the charger work fine with your other battery? And are you sure this battery is discharged enough to need charging?
Try unplugging the charger from power and plug it back in then try putting the battery in again.
If it an auto battery, did any juice spill on the end of the battery? (that can damage an auto battery some manual batteris but not 510 manual batteries since those are totally sealed metal on the threaded end)
Also - is this Joye brand or a clone? I would avoid 510 clones.

I have done everything you have suggested, and both batteries were working before i tried to charge them. they are both flashing when i push the button to try to take a puff
If you have a USB input on the front of your PC, try plugging that in, and then slowly screwing the battery in to it. Some batteries take a little wiggling to make the connection properly and realize that they're on the charger. Once it makes connection, the battery LED should flash a few times and then the charger LED should turn red.
None of that happens?

ok i just did that and it stays the same. the charger light stays green, and the battery doesnt flash unless i push the button

Someone else had the same problem you're having. Take a gander through that, and maybe something there will help?

I just read that forum and Did everything it says and nothing changed. im a little frustrated to be honest lol
I'm afraid that I don't have a whole lot more to add. I would recommend contacting the vendor you bought it from and seeing if they will replace the charger (Which they should, if they're a reputable vendor).
The charger itself is simple. Screw the battery on, plug it in (in no particular order) and wallah. If that's not working, it's likely that there's something wrong with the charger itself, probably the USB part. Except for the fact that it's 1am CST, you should be able to open a ticket with your vendor and get it resolved tomorrow.

thank you for the help im doing what I can at the moment and will be talking with my vendor in the morning
Best of luck! Don't give up on it just because of this though. We're all given little stumbling blocks through our life that serve to test our resolve. The vaping world is a very tight-knit community that honestly wants to help one another, so, hang in there, you won't regret it.
(That sounded a bit preachy, didn't it?)

its ok my brother has said the same thing to me. he is the one who recommended this site and to go with the e cig. I just get frustrated easily
You're not wrong to be frustrated, it's a frustrating thing to order something, pay for it, get it and then have it not work, or stop working shortly after getting it. (That's why I'm always careful when I shop at Wal-mart 
)
Like I said, though, keep your chin up, it'll be fine.

Thank you for your help, Update..... It was a malfunction with the USB charging cord. It has been fixed and I am back happily vaping
