MacBook shuts down immediately both when power button is pressed and when lid is closed

Hey there,
The mentioned issues have happened to me for a couple of years or so. Specifically, when I press the power button it shuts down right away along with a click. Same happens when it sleeps; the light starts glowing and before a full seconds passes, I hear the same click and it shuts down. It started around the same time my battery died out of nowhere so I always attributed it to that. Now I got a new battery and it's still there. I tried resetting the SMC with both methods. The built-in keyboard had coffee spilled on it years ago so it doesn't really work, but I tried the key combination anyway. It didn't fix the problem, so I tried unplugging the battery and holding the power button. That didn't work either. What could be causing this issue?
Thank you.

Your problem is way more complex, here's my standard answer:
"Whenever a liquid spill occurs the first thing that has to happen is the laptop should be shut down immediately. All power must be removed as soon as possible. It is especially important that the battery be disconnected and removed.
All affected parts must be removed from the laptop. No attempt should be made to start/restart the computer since this could potentially damage the logic board beyond all repair.
Then all affected parts would be washed in deionized water and blown dry with compressed air. (In a water spill the deionized water is probably not as critical. Depends on the mineral content of the water.) and blown dry with compressed air.This is especially true of the large chips on the logic board. Water can wick under them and cause havoc.
The logic board should be placed in a drying/dehumidifing oven for at least two days. Longer depending on the spill.
  The keyboard is a separate matter."
Also red wine would be one of the worst things you could spill on your computer.

    macbook pro wont shut down without holding the power button nor cycle for updates to restart

    Sorry I said sorta wrong. I can shut down and I can update to the point of restart but it just sat for 45 minutes after an update. It goes through the update and to restart then the bars chase each other in a circle and it never restarts. So I hit the power button and go through normal reboot but loosing the update in the process. It does not matter how long I wait for a natural reboot after an update or click to restart it will chase the little bar in circles all day literally and never reboot.

  • Macbook wont powerup, beeps repeatedly when power button is pressed and you need to hold the power button down to shut the beeping off. any thoughts?

    Have a 13" macbook. wont power up. upon hitting power button, the computer sounds 3 long beeps constantly until you hold the power button down for 5-10 seconds. any thoughts out there?

    Thanks guys, i just read a few articles regarding this. i pulled all the ram and tried swapping and reseating ram. it appears both chipsets are fine but one ram slot is bad. computer will boot with either chipset installed in the one good slot but neither chipset will boot in the other slot. bummer....

  • HT1338 Mac needs to be shut down by holding the power button.

    I got a brand new macbook pro today. Within 3 hours of use I got an error saying I needed  to restart my computer. I did so, then it happened again 10 minutes later. I shut down my mac and its been off ever since. I googled this and its called a kernel error.What do I do? The closest apple store is 1.5 hours away.

    Hey,
    By loading into Safe Mode; (taken from HT1564)
    It forces a directory check of the startup volume. You may see a progress bar on the screen during this check, and the computer may take longer than usual to complete its startup.
    It loads only required kernel extensions (some of the items in /System/Library/Extensions).
    In Mac OS X v10.3.9 or earlier, Safe Mode runs only Apple-installed startup items (such items may be installed either in /Library/StartupItems or in /System/Library/StartupItems; these are different than user-selected account login items).
    It disables all fonts other than those in /System/Library/Fonts (Mac OS X v10.4 or later).
    It moves to the Trash all font caches normally stored in /Library/Caches/com.apple.ATS/(uid)/ , where (uid) is a user ID number such as 501 (Mac OS X v10.4 or later).
    It disables all startup items and login items (Mac OS X v10.4 or later).
    Mac OS X v10.5.6 or later: A Safe Boot deletes the dynamic loader shared cache at (/var/db/dyld/). A cache with issues may cause a blue screen on startup, particularly after a Software Update. Restarting normally recreates this cache.
    Taken together, these changes can help resolve software or directory issues that may exist on the startup volume.

  • HP DV9700 not booting. Shuts down seconds after pushing power button.

    My  HP Pavilion DV9700, which runs Vista,  stopped working yesterday.  I never makes it to the Windows Startup screen.  Posts messages to screen about which Function Key to press for Setup, Startup Check, etc..   then shuts down.  
    This started a day ago . I do not believe that windows is the issue. 
    I tried doing the hard restart..  blew compressed air in the power supply area..  not change.
    Not sure what to try next.
    Thanks in advance for any help you can provide.

    Hey,
    You can try restoring the BIOS. The "magical key's" are in the document.
    Also, just checking (as not mentioned) that you were able to test with a different AC adapter (without battery).
    I worked on behalf of HP.

  • Macbook Air 2013 sometimes restart when lid is closed

    I have a macbook air with specs below, we don't usually shutdown (convenience sake) we just closed the lid etc...
    we recently noticed that its sometimes restarts itself even when the lid is closed, I also noticed that sometimes the wakeup doesn't work. I have to
    long press the power button so it could boot itself.
    model: late 2013
    OS: mavericks
    anyone else experience this?

    thanks for the advice, for awhile there it thought it worked but today it happened again. What i noticed is that the WIFI was disabled after the restart.
    i've captured the logs. maybe I should return it for servicing???

  • How much will it cost to get my iPod 4g touch fixed if both my power button (locks screen) and home button doesn't work?

    I do not have apple care nor insurance for my iPod so i'm wondering how much it will cost? or will they just replace it with a refurbrished one?

    Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one for $199 for 64 GB 4G and $99 for the other 4Gs. If only battery is bad the exchange price is $79. They do not fix yours.

    You can make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store and do the exchange there

  • MacBook Pro won't sleep when lid is closed and battery lights won't work?

    I have a 2010 MacBook Pro 15" and ever since I got it, the battery indicator lights wouldn't light up (not that big of a deal) and the computer wouldn't sleep when I closed the lid.
    I've reset the NVRAM/PRAM, the SMC and verified/repaired my hard disk as needed.  But the computer still won't sleep when I close the lid (regardless if the machine is plugged into a charger or not).  Is there a known fix for this problem?  I've been searching through the forums and troubleshooting from advice that other people have suggested, but nothing seems to be working.  Any help is greatly appreciated!

    This exact thing happened to me. Resetting the SMC solved all my problems. Here's a link to how to do it: Intel-based Macs: Resetting the System Management Controller (SMC) Hope it works!

  • MacBook Pro will not wake, holding power button does not shut it down either

    My mbpro will not wake and even holding down the power button will not shut it down. Any ideas?  Thanks.

    You can force quit a shut down by holding the power button for a extended amount, say ~10 sec or so.

  • MacBook shuts down instead of sleeping when battery low

    Like many people, I had the infamous MacBook sudden shutdown problem where my MacBook (original model) would suddenly shut down wihtout warning regardless of if it was running off battery or AC adapter. I took the MacBook into the Apple store, they did their magic, and two weeks later an updated MacBook was shipped to me, free of the problem. I also applied the firmware update when it came out.
    Now I have a new problem...it's that the MacBook doesn't seem to want to sleep when the battery gets low. Instead, it will suddenly shut down without warning. In the past, I seem to recall that it would give alerts saying that my power was low, and eventually force itself to sleep. However, now the battery can be as high as 15-20% and the MacBook will shut down. This never happens when the battery is not on the low side, so I'm wondering if this is a problem with the MacBook guaging how much power it has left. Sometimes, I notice that when I plug it in and reboot, the battery says it is at 0%, even though it clearly was not prior to the shutdown (though that didn't happen just now when it shut down - when I rebooted after connecting the AC adapter, it was at 15%).
    I tried resettting the SMC firmware, which seems to help transietly, but the problem recurs. 90% of the time I use my computer plugged in, so that's why I've not noticed it much

    The same thing happened to me last night -- the Macbook shut down because of low battery instead of sleeping, and it gave no warning messages at all as the battery power got low.
    I never had the sudden shutdown problems, though.
    I also checked the battery capacity with CoconutBattery, and it reported that the Max Battery Capacity was 4105 mAh, which is only 78% of the battery's original max capacity. Today, CoconutBattery reports that the battery's max capacity is 5035 mAh (96% of original capacity), which is more reasonable for a laptop less than a year old.
    Perhaps resetting PRAM or the Power Management Unit could solve this problem.
    Any experts out there with a solution?

  • Mac Pro switches itself off immediately after power button is pressed on

    Hi there,
    I would like to share with you an ongoing problem of my Mac Pro (about on and off 11 month I think). Since its HD changed at the beginning of this year I've been having the problem of "switching itself off immediately after the power button is pressed on." I took it to Milton Keynes Apple Shop and apparently they couldn't replicate the problem I received it after they reset it's PRAM. Meanwhile I read the related posts and discussions about the problem and my assumption was as suggested in the scenarios of similar cause – Power Supply unit. I had a technical chat with ex-Solutions staff from Brighton, he also said it might have been caused by it.
    I really don't know what to do because, sometimes attempting 10 or over times of pressing the button I hear the chime and literally 10 or 20 seconds later it switches itself off. And it happened this Sunday morning again, 8 times I've encountered the failure. And the most confusing thing is sometimes I leave it about an hour or two and then it just works and runs fine as it has never have happened.
    By the way I left my computer on for a very long time I suspect maybe more than a month it was on sleep most of time when i am not using it. But yesterday I made the mistake of logging off and shutting it down. Now I can't turn my computer on. Highly frustrating and amazingly bizarre technical challenge.
    Mind you I am fairly capable of carrying DIY operations on it. Previously I baked my graphics card as suggested in the forum – it works fine at the moment I am waiting until it completely brakes. But this power problem really really puzzles me.
    Any opinions, how to solve this cause is highly appreciated.
    Many thanks!

    The SMC especially on the very first 2-3 months of Early 2008.
    Use to suffer from a "restart on wake from sleep" issue.
    Some one told me that is not what "inrush current issue" is but that is what I (and couple others) called it.
    Best to always have a workstation on 1500VA UPS.
    Not share the outlet or cirucit even with anything major.
    Yes it could I guess, poor phrase, but put more stress on PSU over time as a result also.
    Methods to reset SMC have varied and changed over time. Thanks to web not all the revisions and older versions are kept online though to compare to.
    Stories of people going on vacation etc for two weeks to come back to a "dead" Mac Pro started showing up in 2007.
    If it had an actual SMC button, use that to reset.
    If not, leaving it totally disconnected, and all external cables and such over-night, not for the mere 5-10 minutes.
    Unplug but then press and hold power button for 8-10 seconds. And only once. And not to be done repeatedly. That was SMC Reset #3.
    I know the 2007 8-core 3GHz had a different PSU than the smaller models.
    2008 high end was 8-core 3.2GHz 5400 (stock was 2.8GHz 4 or 8-core)
    FBDIMMs draw between 10W up to 15W each, so possible to have 8 DIMMs drawing 120W when maxed out. And heat. I always recommend Mac Pro use fan control to boost the fans a small 400 rpm to expel heat better and keep FBDIMM temps down. Heat, and temperature fluxuations stress and weaken components.
    Other than AHT and the tools that a Apple Certified center should have, not much other than to swap out parts, monitor - iStatPro or Hardware Monitor -
    And because of all this, I would setup a test system so you have a freshly formatted and installed OS and take it from there, with a better chance.

  • Macbook Pro not starting without Holding Power Button

    Hello,
    my Macbook Pro (bought March 2008) seems to be dead.
    When the power button is pressed (and ONLY IF HELD.. cause if I just push it once it powers up and turns off instantly) it starts and does 2 seconds of normal boot (DVD drive check, HD starts to spin along with the fans) then the power just cuts out and you hear the HD off sound. The LED on the front at this moment keeps flashing and then all goes off.
    I tried doing a SMC reset and even a PRAM reset already, but no luck. I've read to try an Hardware Test with the Install DvD so I've inserted it but the MacbookPro powers off before even starting it (The Screen never starts )
    What should I do?
    Thanks for your help :-S

    I already tried with the Battery in and without but no luck. I'm sure it's not that kind of problem unfortunally

  • T400s shuts down immediately when pressing the power button

    This morning, my T400s will not turn on.
    With the power supply, it will not turn on at all.
    With the battery only or with both the battery and power supply, it will shut down immediately after the first screen with the Lenovo logo.
    And MIT is just out of warranty, I don't know what I should do.......
    Please help me.

  • Hi, I have a problem with my Macbook, whenever I close the lid, it sleeps normally, but then, when I open it, it turns on for about a 1/2 second then shuts down. Then, when turning it on, I have to hold the power button, or it stays off. Please help!

    My Macbook shuts down when I put it to sleep.

    I would try each of these in order seeing if the problem is solved after each:
    1. Resetting your Mac's PRAM and NVRAM and Intel-based Macs: Resetting the System Management Controller (SMC).
    2. Boot into Safe Mode, then reboot normally.
    3. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions
    Boot from your Snow Leopard Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list.  In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive.  If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer.
    If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior and/or Tech Tool Pro to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.
    4. Reinstall OS X without erasing the drive
    1. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions
    Boot from your Snow Leopard Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list.  In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive.  If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer.
    If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior and/or Tech Tool Pro to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.
    2. Reinstall Snow Leopard
    If the drive is OK then quit DU and return to the installer.  Proceed with reinstalling OS X.  Note that the Snow Leopard installer will not erase your drive or disturb your files.  After installing a fresh copy of OS X the installer will move your Home folder, third-party applications, support items, and network preferences into the newly installed system.
