HT201177 Macbook Pro is turned on but the screen is black.
Ok, I have read A LOT of discussions on this issue but it seems like nothing works.
I bought my Macbook Pro 13" in September 2012 (so i've had it for a little over a year) in the States. So, I was just using the laptop a couple nights ago, then I closed the lid to the Sleep mode. Then, yesterday morning, I plugged in the charger and unplugged it after the batter's full (showed the green light). Later on that day in the afternoon, I opened the lid to wake up the laptop...but the SCREEN wouldn't display.... It has remained BLACK .... I KNOW the mac is still working..cuz when I turn it on the Caps Lock button shows green light and the sleeping light at the front is working...
I don't think it's RAM problem...cuz I did that Option-Comman-P-R thingy..and held it until I heard the third startup chime... (I held those keys at the SAME time...WAS I SUPPOSED TO press them one by one??)
Last method I used was the SAFE mode...and now the VOLUME buttons and the keyboard light buttons Dont work now.....
PLEASE HELP!!! THANK YOUUUU!!!
Please make a Genius Appointment and take it in for service.

My 2008 MacBook Pro is turning on but the screen stays black. It makes the turning on noise but nothing happens after that. Can anyone tell me what wrong with it and maybe help me out??
Make a PRAM reset > http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1379 Also, reset the SMC > http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3964
If they don't work, that may be a display or GPU issue. Take your MacBook Pro to an Apple Store or reseller. If you want to know which is the part, connect an external display -

my iphone 5's screen blacks out every now and then. the phone is turned on but the screen is black and i can receive calls. what is wrong with my phone?
I have to believe this has something to do with iOS 7 issues. I have taken my screen blacked out 5s twice to the Genius Bar and the found a bunch of system apps had crashed. So if this is the case, is iOS7 the problem?

Please help! I can't get my screen to turn back on. It just stays black when I turn it on. Is there anything I can do to reboot it or am I just out of luck
Thanks!Did you buy the Applecare extended warranty? If not then you will need to pay for whatever repairs need to be done.
You will need to take the system to an Apple store Genius Bar for a check up. -

Equium A300D-16C turns on but the screen shows nothing/stays black
Hi there, I have a Toshiba Equium A300D-16C laptop.
It was fine until now...
When I press the power button, my laptop turns on but the screen remains black / off.
HDD indicator doesn't flash or anything ... ( in case this helps )
I've also tried to remove the battery, hold the power button for 30s and plug the power cord back in... Same thing laptop turns on but screen is black.
I tried to connect my laptop to my PC's monitor using HDMI cable but no success... Laptop turned on but my pc's monitor was showing nothing.
I haven't changed anything inside my laptop or unscrewed it.
PS:
I quite often kept my laptop on the bed/pillow so it may have something to do with overheating or something.
How did I get to this point:
Yesterday my laptop was fine, there was nothing wrong with it... I switched it off at night but when I tried to switch it back on this morning that's where I faced this problem.
Any help would be appreciated.
Many thanks,
Rejanu.Hello

Its very good that you have this test with an external monitor because so you could make sure its not related to internal monitor and its working properly.
Well, you have tried a lot so my personal opinion is its a serious hardware malfunction It could be related to mainboard or CPU in my opinion
I think such hardware diagnostic can only be done from an authorized service provider. I think you should contact the guys. They can help you to get rid of this problem :) -

My macbook pro will turn on but screen stays black.
My macbook pro will turn on but screen stays black. There is no sound on start up and keys dont light up. I have done all the resets:
I disconnected the computer from the power cord, and from all other cables.
I held down the power button for several seconds to turn off the computer.
I let it sit 5 minutes.
I restarted the laptop while holding down the Shift key and nothing happened.

http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1379The only thing I haven’t tried is “floating” the computer. I’m not ready to heat it up to the melting point.
I need lots of help!!! any ideas? Its a MacBook Pro 15” or 17.5” about 5 years old. Its about 2 updates behind (OS: Snow Leopard)Zane W is giving you good advice. Take it to an Apple store genius bar and have them examine it for free. You then will know what the issues are and then can make informed decisions.

I accidentally dropped my friend's macbook air that was in a book bag. The keyboard is working because I can see the light but the screen is black and it won't turn off. How should I fix this? Please Help ME!!
I tried to turn it off and it didn't work... and I held on to the shift key too and it still doesn't work..
Please help me..Accidental damage is not covered under Apple warranty. And it seems there is much accidental damage. Only a Genius Bar tech looking at it can tell how much it will cost to repair.
Cost to repair will be high, I suspect (though Genius Bar will confirm/deny.
There is no gentle way to say this sir/ma'am ... someone will need to pay for your friend's MBA repairs.
