HELP-My 23 inch ACD will no longer turn on.

Have tried unplugging the monitor, turning computer off and on - nothing seems to work. Monitor was occasionally going blank then when I unplugged and plugged back into the transformer it would come back on. It seems to happen when the computer goes to sleep. Now the screen is blank and will not come back on.

Apple does not seem to reply on these boards if the solution may involve hardware repairs or replacement. The boards are officially user-to-user.
With regards to this problem, you should try the display with a different power supply unit (of the same wattage). If you do not have one of these, you should take the display to an Apple store and have it tested with one of theirs.

  • My iPod will no longer turn on after I fully charged it. HELP!

    I knew I should have never trusted Apple with personal files. I put all of my pictures from my digital camera (1,800 of them) on the ipod for "safe" keeping. Now my ipod will no longer turn on. I fully charged the ipod until the "charged" icon appeared. Then I disconnected it. A couple hours later I tried to turn it on and it no longer turns on. I've had this iPod for about 6 months and I'm pretty sure it's not a dead battery. It's been very good with me. The hold switch is NOT activated. I went through all of the common sense troubleshooting steps. I tried to reset the ipod. I tried recharging it on AC power. I tried reconnecting it via USB on computer. I tried the updater, which doesn't work b/c ipod won't turn on. I've also tried hitting it...jk. I also have 10,330 songs on here. This is my life on my ipod. I can't afford to lose this info. 60GB gone. Is there anything else I can do to fix this? Any help would be GREATLY appreciated. Thanks

  • Installed SMC 1.3 update on 17 inch MBP - screen will no longer turn on!

    Hey guys I downloaded this firmware update today on Software Update. The fan revved full speed (like it says it will) then stopped. After the restart my screen will no longer turn on. I have tried resetting PRAM, SMC, connecting an external monitor, and every other trick I can think of. The computer is still running as I can log in and use the function keys to change the volume up and down but the screen is solid black.This is the first issue I've had with the computer (purchased December 2007)and I DESPERATELY need to get it running ASAP! Anyone have any ideas?
    [edit]
    To elaborate, the first time I called Apple they told me to hold the power button until the computer made a noise and then boot up. That turned the screen back on and I got in and cleared the cache as they said I should. Next reboot screen was black again. Then when I reset the PRAM I got in. Reboot, black screen. Then finally when I reset the SMC I got in, same deal on reboot. Now none of those tricks works. Any way to downgrade the SMC? At least the previous firmware worked.

    Hi Balance ... in this case the weak link in the chain is your local dealer. It is odd that they "refuse clients" and Apple should be made aware of that as they are part of the support structure. Have you tried finding a kind ear at Apple who will take this on and intervene with a phone call to your local chappies?
    I have also been an Apple purchaser for >20 years and this is the first time I have had a software update cause a hardware problem ... perfect storm ... a weak NVIDIA chip (mine originally passed apple tests but those tests only caught the really bad defects), an odd temperature response after the update, and a failure response that most service shops call "intermittent" (which makes them suspect it is your fault instead of Apple's. This is now a known issue linked into the update so if you find the right guy at Apple you may be able to persuade them simply to ship a new motherboard to you or the dealer...
    Good luck but what, exactly, is a viable alternative to Apple?? I still keep my slide rule in my back pocket (and am now working from an old macbook while my MBP was in the shop for a week).

  • HT1386 my phone will no longer turn all the way on or sinc... It just says activation required.

    My I phone will no longer turn on all the way or conect with my computer all the way to sinc.... keeps saying "activation required"? How do I activate?

    The only time I have ever seen that is when my SIM card is out of my phone. Try opening the sim card tray and then replacing it after a minute. Use a paperclip to pop the door open on the side of the phone (if it is a 4 or 4s) or on top (if 3GS) and see if that changes the alert message. Check back with status if that doesn't help. You can also trying a full restore by plugging it into your computer and opening iTunes. When it recognizes the phone click on the phone name in the left menu and hit restore. This will erase the phone but if you have a backup you can restore from that after it resets the phone or you can set it up as a new phone and start from scratch. Good luck, let me know if this helps.

    Did you try to charge it using the adapter or your computer?
    If you can, let it charge for about 15min, then connect in recovery mode, described in this article:

    If still not luck, your battery might have to be replaced:

  • My daughter's ipod touch got hot while charging and will no longer turn on.

    My daugther's ipod touch got hot and will no longer turn on.  Is there a solution to this problem or is the ipod fried?

    I'm not sure if it's fried or not, but try rebooting the device by pressing and holding the on/off and home buttons simultaneously for about 15 seconds or so. Hopefully you will see the Apple logo.

  • Why would my iPod show a full battery when connected to power but when not connected it will no longer turn on

    Why would my iPod show a full battery when connected to power but when not connected it will no longer turn on

    For both
    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 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.

  • TS1367 My White 13" MacBook (the last model ever produced) will no longer turn on, and the charger light won't even luminesce when plugged in.

    My MacBook has been suffering for the last 2 and a half years or so, and finally called it quits today.
    There were many things wrong with it, but the most debilitating issue was with the battery; if the computer wasn't plugged into a wall, it would immediately die. Upon being powered back on, the clock would always be reset to 12/31/2000 at 7:00 PM. As I stated in the title, it will no longer even power on or recognize a charger. Help would be much appreciated. If it's a battery issue then I can replace it, but I don't want to buy a new battery if my computer is totaled.

    First see the MagSafe troubleshooting tips:Apple Portables: Troubleshooting MagSafe adapters and check to see that all looks ok.  You might want to try using another charger in case the charger is faulty.  If that doesn't help, take the MacBook Pro and charger to an Apple store genius bar and have the technicians test the system to see where the fault is.

  • HP Pavilion Desktop a6000y will no longer turn on

    I have a Pavilion PC A6000y that is >5 years old, with Windows Vista.  For a time, it would not start up, no blue indicator light, but if left "on" would ultimately boot up after several minutes, and operate properly.  I also left it on for >1 week without any trouble, until an electrical storm when I lost power to the house. It will no longer power up at all, not even blue screen.  I have replaced the rear fan, replaced the complete power unit with exact spec OEM product, and replaced the power switch. Also removed and re-plugged in the memory boards. Further to one thread on here, I unplugged everything, including the power cord, held the power button down for 30 seconds and released it, switched the red power input toggle to 220 volts from 110 volts for 30 seconds and then back again.  Plugged it back in, using wall outlet directly, no power strip, still absolutely nothing.  I have held down several function keys during start, nothing. Fan does run, but no power light, no screen image.  What do I do next?  Many thanks in advance.

    AmherstDKE, welcome to the forum.
    With an older computer, I always suspect the power supply unit (PSU); especially when there has been a power outage.  The power surge can cause the PSU to fail.  Here is a guide to help you troubleshoot it.
    You should always have the computer connected through a Surge Protector.  This will protect your computer if there is a power outage.

  • MacBook Pro 4, 1 will no longer turn on

    My MacBook Pro 4, 1 will no longer power up.  It was working great when I shut it down but acts like it has no power now.  I have tried the instructions for resetting the SMC with no luck.  Any other ideas on what to do or the possible cause are appreciated!
    Thanks

    I wanted to add that when I press the power button the power indicator light on the lid release will come on momentarily but then off real quick.  About 4-5 seconds later the light again will flash on and off.  After that, nothing.  Maybe that means something?

  • My ipod touch will no longer turn on!  help!

    I have followed every possible steps apple has suggested to reset and restore my ipod.  It started with forgetting my passcode and being disabled.  So i connected it to itunes as it suggested.  I updated, restored, and it went in to recovery mode, and thats the last i had seen my ipod on.  Now when it does turn on, it gives me the icon to "plug it in".  nothing more.  ive turned it off, turned it on, updated the software, reconnected it, changed security settings, you name it, an at first it no didnt recognise my ipod?
    it just simply remains inoperable. someone please help, tell me there is hope and i understand if i have to lose my music, i can always start over.   my concern is why im repeating steps 1-5 over and over?  it just doesnt even turn off correctly.  Itunes continued to give me the option to restore it, and i went to the password help section, and to no avail.  Itunes now no longer even "pops up" as it reads to hold down the "home" button, as it was one of the many steps it suggested.
    Im dying here, I dont understand how plain english, step by step directions, are no longer working.  my ipod doesnt even indicate the battery is charging when plugged in. 
    has the life of my ipod no longer exist with this software? is that a possibility?  its and oldie, but goodie, when ipods first came out. 
    thanks in advance for any one who can master this problem for me.  i dont have the money to get some tech over the phone to provide the same steps, i have already exhausted on my end.

  • My computer crashed and will no longer turn on, now when I go to sync my iPhone it wants to erase everything.  I have 2,000  songs and don't want to loose them...please help!

    My computer crashed and was not fixable.  I have since bought a MacBookPro but I can not sync my iPhone to it as it wants to erase all of my music and videos.  Please help!!

    Roaminggnome's answer is neither strictly accurate nor is it especially helpful. There exist a number of third party applications that are neither supported nor endorsed by Apple, but that once installed on your new MacBook will allow you to download your files from your iPhone. Just Google "back-up music from iPhone" and you should get a range of products to choose from.
    And after you've bought and downloaded one of them and restored your iTunes content, go an buy an external drive to back-up your iTunes library

  • HP TM2 Touchscree​n Tablet Pc will no longer turn on

    So, my TM2 just suddenly tuned off on me. 
    Now, only type of repsonse I get is when i plug in the charger. I get an orange light which should signify the battery charging?
    When i try to flip the power switch to 'ON' the orange light turns off and there's no other response.
    Ive tried removing the battery for a while and reseating to no avail. Also, no response when trying to switch on with direct power.
    Dead motherboard or CPU? Or could it be a bad power supply???
    Any and all advice is greatly appreciated.
    Oh, and my warranty is no longer valid ;(

    Try a hard reset:
    Remove the battery and unplug the DC power adapter.
    press and hold the power button for more than fifteen seconds.
    plug in the DC power adapter (leave the battery out for now)
    press the power button
    Please identify your Touchscreen Tablet PC with the complete product name. See my signature for an example.
