Lenovo IdeaPad Y500 will not turn on!!! Did everything.

My Y500 just went out of warrenty.  Call Lenovo cost to much to send it in.  Problem : Press power button, power button lights up on press but once you let go light goes off.  No fan, no HDD sounds, no display, no keyboard light .... nothing.  This happens when AC cord is pluged in and when not pluged in  ... using battery. Light Indicters shows a white light for power .. next to it is a amber light for battery.  These light ONLY shows up and stays up when you plug in the AC power.  Same light goes when AC Cord is removed and running on battery but only shows when you press power button.  From the manual, amber light means 20% of battery it needs recharging, which I did  over night and still same issue.  I removed the battery and only used AC cord ...... sadly same things.   I tried the hold down power button 30 sec trick with AC Cord and Battery removed to clear any power left...  at least 20 times... No luck. Last resort I even opened it up removed the RAM, HDD and Netword Card ... no luck it wont power up. Question is can it start without battery .. just AC Cord?  Does it need HDD or Ram to start?  Whats the most basic requirement it need to start... thinking breaking it down to the bare syatem to see what is causing it not to start?Shouldn't there  beeps telling what is missing or failed?   I'm on my last plead for help before burying this laptop that I spent so much on.  Please HELP!

I am having the exact same problem. If I figure out anything I'll let you know, vice versa.

    Did you press both the Sleep/Wake and Home button down together until you see the Apple Logo (approximately 10 seconds).

  • My iPhone 4 will NOT turn on, tired everything!

    Before anyone tells me to go read the other threads, I already have.  No one seems to have the same problem I am having.
    My iPhone 4 has been charging all night got up to 100%, then it was at least on 30% battery life when it turned off.  It has slowly been acting up over the past few months.  The vibration only randomly works when it wants to and it will randomly turn off from time to time.  Today it randomly turned off.  I tried to plug it back into the wall to turn in back on but nothing happened.  I pluged it in to the computer for the past hour and nothing happens (I have a MacBook Pro, it doesn't recognize that the phone is plugged in.) 
    Here is how my situation is different!  I CANNOT hold down the top button and the home button at the same time because my top button broke some time ago.  It's little spring inside or something messed up and it no longer clicks up and down.  I have been using the little dot that you can make come in the settings to control anything to do with that top button feature.  My only buttons that work is my home button, and my 2 side volume buttons. 
    Nother is working.  Again I cannot hold down the top and home button down at the same time because the top button is broken and no longer works.
    What do I do?

    By "everything" do you mean you already tried restoring it?
    Make sure you are following the instructions in this procedure to the letter. Here they are, with emphasis on some easily overlooked requirements:
    Disconnect the USB cable from the iPhone but leave the other end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
    Turn off the device: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for the device to turn off.If you cannot turn off the device using the slider, press and hold the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons at the same time. When the device turns off, release only the Sleep/Wake button.
    Continue pressing and holding the Home button while you reconnect the USB cable to the device. The device should turn on.Note: If you see the "low battery" screen, let the device charge for at least ten minutes to ensure that the battery has some charge, and then start with step 2 again.
    Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen. When this screen appears (iTunes icon and USB connector) release the Home button.
    If necessary, open iTunes. You should see the "recovery mode" alert ("iTunes has detected a phone in recovery mode").
    Use iTunes to restore the iPhone.
    If you do not see the "Connect to iTunes" screen, try these steps again. If you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen but the device does not appear in iTunes, see this article and its related links.
    Select the iPhone in iTunes and choose "restore from backup".
    If you still can't get it to work, you have done all you can and only Apple will be able to help.

  • Lenovo U410 Urgent Help Will Not Turn On

    Hello,
    Firstly i would like to thank anyone reading this post and taking the time out of their day to try and help my problem.
    I have a Lenovo U410 Ultrabook i've had my Laptop for around 1-2 years now and i have kept it in a very good condition there have been no issues with it. About 1 Week ago i was using my laptop left my room for about 30 minutes to have a shower and upon returning i saw that my Laptop was not charging i unplugged the charger from the laptop and place it back in nothing happened. so i turned off my laptop and unplugged the charger from the wall socket. since then i have not been able to turn my laptop back on i have tried but the led's flash twice when i tried to turn it back on. i have changed the fuse in my charger about 3 times with new fuses all 3AMP required and there is no difference at first i thought it was a problem with the charger but now im thinking otherwise and i'm quite worried. After searching around the internet for a fix i have pressed the power button for 30 seconds and the leds blinked 3 times and after trying various methods to turn it back on it has not been succesful i have even uplugged the battery and plugged it back in after removing the back cover. i have no warranty left as it expired and i was not able to renew it. if you have had any experience with similiar problems or any suggestions i would be very interested to hear what you think the next step for me would be. i dont have much money to invest into this laptop but i am prepared to spend some money if need be.
    Thank you for reading my extremely long post,
    Your's faithfully

    Hi there,
    Firstly, try a hard reset. Hold the sleep/wake and home buttons together until the Apple logo appears.
    If this doesn't work, try restoring your device. Put it in recovery mode if iTunes doesn't recognise it, and restore it from there. I have linked to instructions below.
    Recovery Mode and Restore - Apple
    Let me know if this helps,

  • HT4061 My phone will not turn on. I did a hard reset but all that my screen will show is a picture indicating I should connect the power cord to iTunes (iTunes icon).I don't know my serial # and I do not have acces to my laptop

    My phone will not turn on. I did a hard reset but all that my screen will show is a picture indicating I should connect the power cord to iTunes (power cord symbol with an arrow iTunes icon).I don't know my serial # and I do not have acces to my laptop.

    The serial number has nothing to do with this.
    YOur phone is in recovery mode.
    You will need access to a computer with itunes on it to restore your phone.

  • 16 mo young Mac Pro will not turn on. Dead. Why. No problems ever! Installed Yosemite and did not boot up after. Did that kill it? To young to die. What

    16 mo young Mac Pro will not turn on. Dead. Why. No problems ever! Installed Yosemite and did not boot up after. Did that kill it? To young to die. What happened?what do I do now??????? Help!

    Note that you don't have a Mac Pro as stated. Your profile says you have a MacBook Pro. Please clarify as they are entirely different computers. If nothing below works for you, then make a Genius Appointment and take it in for service.
    Try these in order testing your system after each to see if it's back to normal:
    1. a. Resetting your Mac's PRAM and NVRAM
        b. Intel-based Macs: Resetting the System Management Controller (SMC)
    2. Restart the computer in Safe Mode, then restart again, normally. If this doesn't help, then:
         Boot to the Recovery HD: Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the
         COMMAND and R keys until the Utilities menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the
         computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager
         screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
    3. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions: Upon startup select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions as follows.
    When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list.  In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive.  If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the main menu. Select Restart from the Apple menu.
    4. Reinstall Yosemite: Reboot from the Recovery HD. Select Reinstall OS X from the Utilities menu, and click on the Continue button.
    Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.

  • HT4628 I did the security update on 4-2-13 and now my airport card will not turn on. OS 10.6.8 Intel imac 4,1 core duo. My macbook pro did not have this issue and wifi here is working on that. Is there a setting that was changed? Thank you!

    Airport card will not turn on after security update yesterday. worked normally (for the download of the update) until then. Wifi here works fine with my Macbook Pro right now so the issue is with the card / computer / software not the provider. Did the update change something?

  • HT4528 I have an IPhone5.  The screen goes blue, then B & W snow, then makes a short hissing sound and shuts off.  It did it 3-4 times and now it will not turn on.  Should I try to have it serviced or replace it?

  • My Lenovo Tab S8-50 will not turn on?

    Hi,  i bought myself a new Lenovo Tab s8-50 2 days ago and as i went to put it on charge today it was on a 50% battery life so plenty of juice left but i'm going out tonight and so i wanted it filled up. After coming back after a few hours the tablet will not turn on it just has a black screen. the charger is on and anyway it would not lose 50% of its battery on idle just after a few hours. Is this a fault commonly know and can i fix it? Please help. Thanks, Tom

    Weird problem. I would go to the shop from where you bought it. Or you could try turning it on with power button pressed for like 20 secs or power+both volume buttons.
