I was using my Macbook when it suddenly shut down, I was updating a program so I had the charger on even though there was still 90 percent of power in the computer. I tried to turn on the computer several times but is not working, what can I do?
I was using my Macbook when it suddently shut down, I was updating the operating system so I had the charger on even though there was still 90 percent of energy. I tried to turn my Mac several times but it doesn`t turn on, also the green light of the charger is not working, it`s looks like the charger is dead too. What`s wrong with my Mac?
Try resetting the SMC.
MacBook and MacBook Pro with a battery you can remove
Shut down the computer.
Disconnect the MagSafe power adapter from the computer, if it's connected.
Remove the battery.
Press and hold the power button for 5 seconds.
Release the power button.
Reconnect the battery and MagSafe power adapter.
Press the power button to turn on the computer
To reset the SMC on newer Mac portables with a battery you cannot remove
Shut down the computer.
Plug in the MagSafe power adapter to a power source, connecting it to the Mac if its not already connected.
On the built-in keyboard, press the (left side) Shift-Control-Option keys and the power button at the same time.
Release all the keys and the power button at the same time.
Press the power button to turn on the computer.
Note: The LED on the MagSafe power adapter may change states or temporarily turn off when you reset the SMC.

Hello I'm trying to update my applications and it is asking me to sign in and checking my billing account .it is not accepting my billing account that I use tried to change it several time it didn't work .what can I do to solve it?
What happens when you try to confirm your details, if you are getting an error message then what does it say ? For a card to be accepted (debit cards are no longer accepted in all countries) it needs to be registered to exactly the same name and address as on your account, and have been issued by a bank in your country. If it's not being accepted then do you get the 'none' option on your account ?

I was charging and updating my mini ipad last night when it suddenly shut down and will not turn on since then. What do I do to turn it on again?
Try this - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.) No data/files will be erased.

My computer is saying that I am not in the US and so I am unable to view shows, Youtube, etc. I've gone under the location settings and put US several times but nothing has worked. What should I do?
It may not be your computer telling you this, it is probably the company providing the shows to you over the Internet. If that is the case, no setting on your computer can change it because the media company is going by your network address (IP address), which is where your Internet modem (cable or DSL) connects to the outside Internet. If the location of your Internet connection appears to be outside the US (even if it is mistake), media companies that distribute shows under contracts with geographical restrictions may lock you out.
If you use a service like a VPN service, you may have the ability to use IP addresses from other countries so that you can appear to be connecting from there. But it takes some setting up. -
My phone died last night and when I plugged it in it wouldn't turn on.I tried restarting it but it has yet to turn on since last night,It was just a black screen,i try the on/off and home buttons together but its not working,What should I do?
How long have you had your phone? Because if you've had it a long time, the battery in the phone might of died on you. Or have you dropped it in water, snow, from high up? All those things could of disconnected something internally in your phone, or permentaly damaged the internal hard drive its self, or the sims card.

You can try running these tests.
Apple Hardware Test doesn't catch everything, so even if it doesn't find a problem, you could have one.

Hi patrick1661,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
It sounds like you are trying to back up your iPhone to iTunes, but are not able to. Did you receive an error message or other alert?
You can find the solutions for several common iTunes errors at this link:
