HT3964 Macbook pro won't turn on and won't charge

Hi. I just bought a macbook pro 13" last year August. Unfortunately just today when i used it and plugged my iPad to sync, it shuts down unexpectedly. Then i tried charging it as i thought it maybe because the battery is out but no. The charger won't work as well. I borrowed my cousin's charger yet it still dont work. My charger is working eventually to my cousins mac. Anyone who can help me? I tried SMC but it doesnt work. I need my MAC.

You need to take your machine into your local Apple Store or an AASP and have them run diagnostics on it. Sounds as if you've a hardware failure.
Sorry,

My macbook pro won't charge due to an electric shock

My macbook pro won't charge due to an electric shock that was caused from a charger that was in a bad condition, the computer didn't turn off when it happened but it stopped charging. When the battery died it refused to charge with any charger, I even bought 2 new ones. I sent it to apple and they are asking $650 for fixing it! The problem is that the macbook is only a year and a half old and I live abroad where there is no apple branches or any of that. I had to send it to the USA first. Also, I might lose everything saved on the macbook after fixing it! Any solutions? please help!

My Macbook Pro won't charge when it's on, only charges VERY slowly when it is shutdown

My Macbook Pro won't charge when it's on. It only charges VERY slowly when it is shutdown. Recently when it was charging shutdown, I could not get it to turn on. The only way it turned on was by removing the charger from the Macbook Pro. This only happene one time but still wondering what is going on with this battery.
Thanks for the help!

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.

My MacBook Pro will not turn on, bought a new charge still no power, My MacBook Pro will not turn on, bought a new charge still no power

My MacBook pro will not turn on bought a new charger and it still will not turn on

Then your problem isn't with the charger/adapter. Which model MacBook Pro do you have (e.g., "15-inch Late 2011")?
It's likely that you'd be best served by taking your machine into your local Apple Store or AASP and having the Apple techs run diagnostics. The diagnosis and estimate to repair should be free.

My macbook pro will not turn on and the charger is not lighting up

please help!! my macbook pro will not turn on at all, when i plug in the charger it will not light up at all, it suddenly shut down when i was using it.

Is there any charge left in the battery?
Press the button on the left side, near the front edge. If no green lights appear, battery is flat. And if the power brick ain't workin' (by virtue of its pilot light not glowing), then it will remain flat and the computer will not power up. If this is the case, maybe try with another power brick of similar size and see if it charges.
Else the logic board is toast and pitbull's on the money.
Either case, my gypsy crystal ball forsees a trip to an Apple Store or a Service Provider in your future...

HT3964 Macbook Pro 8,1 turns on during SMC reset, does not reset

Hi, I'm troubleshooting a friend's Macbook Pro 8,1 - which has faced a number of low-level problems since she dumped juice on the keyboard a few months ago. The biggest problems appear to be SMC related (summarized below).
When trying to do an SMC reset (http://support.apple.com/kb/ht3964) by holding Shift + Option + Control + Power, and releasing all buttong simultaneously, the computer simply powers on. If I hold all buttons for ~5 seconds, the power LED flashes, then the computer powers on before the buttons are released. From other articles, this process should complete with the computer staying off for the duration - only turning on with a separate power button press afterwards, which makes me think the SMC has not been reset. Any thoughts on how to properly reset the SMC?
Background and list of problems persisting despite attempted SMC resets:
1. The battery stopped charging ~3 weeks ago. It ran fine until the battery died, then wouldn't turn on. We tried multiple chargers, to no avail. Miraculously, it turned on after being plugged in a few days ago, and has been operating mostly normally since.
2. Since it came back up, the computer does not sleep automatically when closing the lid, though it does manually sleep.
3. The battery power LEDs no longer light up when the side button is pressed.

Do you have the power adapter connected when trying to reset the SMC? That is one of the requirements for resetting the SMC.
If the issue still persists, you might want to take it into a genius bar: http://concierge.apple.com/reservation/us/en/techsupport/

My MacBook Pro won't charge when I plug it in. the green or orange light won't even turn on. The computer is dead already, so I cannot mess with my settings. What do you suggest?

I have a Mac Book Pro with the serial number: C0*******TY3 and the model no: A1278. I wanted to charge it this morning, and it won't charge meaning that the light even won't turn on, and also my computer is dead, so I cannot change anything on the system preferences. What should I do? I will make an appointment at the Genius Bar, but what do you thing the problem is here?

My 15inch retina MacBook Pro ran out of battery and even after charging it. It can't seem to turn on. Anyone knows a quick way to fix this?

I was working on my MacBook when it suddenly shut down. I realised that I forgot to charge it. However after charging it for a few minutes of charging and several attempts at holding the power button down. It doesn't seem to turn on.

Keep it charging for several hours.

MacBook Pro is not turning on and keeps beeping. Please help!!

My MacBook Pro 13" is not turning on. It keeps beeping three times then pauses and repeats. It froze earlier today and I had to force a shutdown. I've done this before and it's worked fine. How do I get it to work again??? Please help.

Three beeps at startup indicates that your RAM hasn't passed the integrity check and one of the modules is faulty.

My MacBook pro won't charge and I have a flashing green light?

I have not used my MacBook for a couple of days n today realised it needed charging when I come to use it so I plugged it in. I get a green flashing light but it won't charge, what seems to be the problem? I have only had it since April so can't see it being the mac is it the charger itself? Please help!

Do a SMC and a PRAM reset, if that doesn't resolve the issues, look at the MagSafe links.

I have tried several chargers and none seem to work.

if the battery can be removed from your mac do the following to perform the SMC reset:
remove the battery from the macbook
remove the power cord from it
hold down the power button on the mac for 5 seconds
put the battery back in and plug back in and see if it will start up, if not you need to get a new battery for the macbook

My MacBook Pro won't charge.

I have a macbook pro and so does my sister, so when my charger wouldn't work, I tried hers. Her charger didn't work either. Next, I tried my mom'a MacBook air's charger and it worked! Why is this? When I replace my charger should I get the same kind as my mom or the one that goes with a pro? When I would plug my sister's charger and my charger into my laptop, 1 out of 10 times it would turn green then orange and stop charging. The the other 9 times, it wouldn't charge at all. Has anyone else experienced this problem? How do I fix it? Is it my computer or the charger?

Hello Iamthe_walrus,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
Before determining whether you need to get a new charger, please reset your SMC by following the steps in the article below.
