Computer won't turn on and the power cord doesn't light up

My problem with the computer is that it will not turn on. The battery is fully charged, power cord is plugged into a working outlet. I have held down the power button for 10 second or even longer. Nothing turns it on and the power cord doesn't light up at all. Any thing will help.
Thanks

First, check that your AC outlet has power. Second, see this article: Intel-based iMac- What to do if your computer won't turn on and this one Resetting MacBook and MacBook Pro System Management Controller (SMC).

  • My MacBookAir needs to be charged and the power cord is not lighting or charging

    My MacBook Air needs to be charged so I plugged it in as usual, but the green light on the cord is not on and it is not charging.  I have tried several plugs to no avail.  Does the charging cord wear out???

    Try:                                               
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try another cable       
    - Try on another computer                            
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • My iphone wont turn on and the power button is not functioning

    my iphonw wont turn on and the power button is not functioning

    If your power button is broken, there's not much you can do. You could go to an Apple store & do an out of warranty exchange...Apple doesn't fix iPhones, they replace them. But, I wouldn't recommend doing so, as the iPhone 3G was discontinued almost three years ago & won't run most apps in the app store.
    You'd be better served by selling it for parts & using the money to purchase a new phone.

  • Macbook shutdown. It won't reboot and the power cord isn't lit when plugged in

    Had my macbook running and it just shut down. I cannot get it to reboot and the power cord isn't lit up when it is connected to the computer. The only problem leading up to this was I could not use the computer unless the power cord was connected. Any suggestions? Thanks

    Try to chack your battery health with Battery Health which is available at Mac App Store for free.

  • My macbook black shutdown during a thunder storm , what do i need to? it won't turn on and the charger light is not on green or on at all..have i fried it?

    my macbook black shutdown during a thunder storm , what do i need to? it won't turn on and the charger light is not on green or on at all..have i fried it?please help a.s.a.p...

    Most likely.
    You can try to boot from the Install DVD for your Mac and run AHT from there if it boots.
    If not it sounds like it is time to take it to Apple for repair.

    My ipod 5th generation won't turn on and my middle button doesn't work! What will I do? It all starmed when I updated iOS 8. It would be fine but would shut down at random, now it won't turn on at all!!! when I press the lock button to turn it on the Apple sign would come up for about 5/10 minutes!! so what will I do???

    Try:

    Ignore the reset and when it says place the iPod in recovery mode
    Place the iPod in recovery mode using one of these programs:

  • My ipod touch 5th generation will not turn on and the home button doesn't work. what do i do?

    Hello my name is Leslie and i would like to ask you guys a question on how to fix my ipod or what is wrong with it. My ipod touch 5th generation will not turn on and the home button doesn't work. what can i do to fix it ?

    Has the home button worked in the past, or is this been something that hasn't worked for some time? The only way to reset the device is with the sleep/wake (power) and home buttons together. Without it, you would have to wait until the battery dies and then plug it in to try and reset it. The Home button is used for several user troubleshooting steps. Without it, you cannot perform a reset, put the device into recovery mode, or place it in DFU mode. You need to get the home button repaired.

  • My iPhone 5 is disabled and the power button doesn't work. How would I fix it?

    My iPhone 5 is disabled and the power button doesn't work. How would I fix it? Please Help

    wait it for your iPhone to die then before it turns it plug it into iTunes while holding the home button and it will force it into recovery mode.
    will be hard to get the timing right cause u will need to wait for the battery to die and charge up again. Other then that just take it to apple and have them replace the device for a fee.

    The warranty is not and has never been International.  Warranty and support are only valid in the country of origin.  The only exception is for devices sold in the EU where the EU is treated as one country for warranty and support purposes.

    can you please tell me whats wrong with my mbp and how do i resolve it

    First check the connections on the power adapter and the MBP.  Make certain that they are clean and see if the spring loaded connectors on the power adapter are not stuck.
    Try a SMC reset:

    If available, try another power adapter.
    If no success, bring the MBP and the power adapter to an Apple store genius bar for a free evaluation.
