Macbook isn't responding

Hi, I have a 1.5 years old macbook pro.
A few days ago I plugged an iPhone5 USB charger into the USB port, and immediately got an error message followed by a complete system shutdown.
now the Mac is completely dead, and is not even responding to the Mac charger.
both devices (Mac and iPhone) are completely original!
Ideas?
thanks!

Take both into Apple.

Option 1
Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
If that fails:
Option 2
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one. .

My delete key on my macbook isn't responding.

Today I was typing when all of a sudden my delete key on my macbook stop responding, I try resetting still no luck.
Any ideas what can be the problem?

Ok, so after being on hold for 20 minutes with the Apple Tech support line got me nowhere!!! They told me if I wanted them to help me, I would have to pay a 49.99 fee first! That was a definite NO!
I trashed it and reinstalled it- DID NOT WORK!
I searched and searched online for solutions and here is what I ran across and it actually worked (I lost no pictures and was able to retrieve everything like it never happened):
1. I went to my desktop screen and held down BOTH the option/ alt button and the command button (do not release buttons)
2. Open your iPhoto app and a box should pop up with the option to rebuild library.
3. I personally selected 'rebuild thumbnails small', 'recover orphaned photos', and 'rebuild iPhoto Library database from automatic backup'
4. Hit rebuild and let it run its course
5. When it's done you should be able to retrieve your photos.

IMessage on MacBook Air isn't responding

For two days now, my iMessage on my MacBook Air isn't responding. I keep trying to restart my laptop, and tried to shut down everything then start my laptop up again. I did log out of my iCloud account and log back in, and I did force quit the application as well but that didn't work either... Any suggestions?

Check your settings in System Preferences > Trackpad then select the Point & Click tab.

My MacBook won't login as the keyboard isn't responding normally

On starting up my MacBook, the keyboard isn't responding correctly so I can't log in on any profile configured. The passwords are known but I don't think what is being typed is actually being recorded....
Can you help?

I've plugged an external keyboard in which works and allows me to login, but I can't see what setting(s) need to change to allow the notebook keyboard to work again.
Any ideas anyone?

Messages isn't responding

The Messages application on my Macbook Pro doesn't open up. Whenever I try to it says, "Messages isn't responding." How can I solve this problem?

Hi,
If one User on the Mac has an issue using the app then the fault lies with that Users Set up.
This could be .plists for the App.
It could be whether the User has Read and Write permissions of those files and the Folder that contain them.
In the case of Yosemite this includes a Read & Write "route" or Sandboxing that protects the rest of the system from issue with the app.
The issues can be with the way the Mac is set up.
DNS server info in System Preferences > Network > Advanced Button > DNS tab should be external to your LAN and not the router's IP address.
The Date and Time settings should use the Automatic Time Server.
We mentioned the AppleGothic Font but others like Helvetica Neue and Lucida Grande also need to be enabled.
As well as checking those setting do this:-
In a Finder Window use the Go Menu whilst holding down the ALT key and selecting the Library that appears.
In the View Menu select the Show Path Bar.
Now navigate to /Containers/com.apple.iChat/Data/Library/Preferences
(you will see most of the .plist here are Aliases - they point to the actual files in ~/Library/Preferences)
Right Click on the Preferences icon in the Path Bar and select Get Info.
In the Info Panel scroll to the bottom.
It should list the Name next to the Little House Icon in the Path Bar (shortname)
This should have READ and WRITE permissions.
If you select the Line and then use the cogwheel type icon under the list it should have Greyed out Text saying "Make shortname (me) the Owner" - it will be greyed out if you already own it.
Repeat the above panel part for the Library that is before Preferences and the Data and com.apple.iChat and Containers Folders.
Then click the Containers icon so you are in the folder.
Navigate to com.apple.soagent/Data/Library/Preferences
Repeat the panel bit for all .plists that are not Aliases (soagent.plist and all the ones with Messages Helper in the name)
Then again for the Preferences, Library, Data, com.apple.soagent folders.
This is long winded of course but you may find the offending item early.

My iPod touch (4th generation) isn't responding to anything I do.

My iPod touch (4th generation) isn't responding to anything I do. It's been like this since 2pm this afternoon (5 hours). On the screen, there is the Apple logo and nothing else. When I connected my iPod to the computer, iTunes didn't recognize it and my iPod didn't change at all. What should I do?

See
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
- I would start with
Removing and Reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows XP
or
Removing and reinstalling iTunes and other software components for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
However, after your remove the Apple software components also remove the iCloud Control Panel via Windows Programs and Features app in the Window Control Panel. Then reinstall all the Apple software components
- Then do the other actions of:
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
paying special attention to item #5
- New cable and different USB port just in case
- Run this and see if the results help with determine the cause

"Back to my Mac isn't working properly because your DNS server isn't responding. Contact your ISP for an alternate DNS server address, and enter it in Network Preferences".

Hi, i am trying to setup back to my mac at home but I get the error "Back to my Mac isn't working properly because your DNS server isn't responding. Contact your ISP for an alternate DNS server address, and enter it in Network Preferences".
There is no documentation on how to solve this anywhere.
I have an Arris router set to bridged mode which is connected to a 5th generation airport extreme. I have tried using the google dns servers instead of the one assigned by the cable company in the AE but I still get the same error.
Any help would be much appreciated

New to BTMM, I got stung today with the silly DNS problem message. Solution:
1) Flush DNS cache with:
dscacheutil -flushcache;sudo killall -HUP mDNSResponder
2)System preferences > iCloud > untick BTMM then tick it again. The warning should have disappeared.
Edit #1
Apologies for the noise. The warning has come back
Edit #2
Just found out that BTMM is not compatible with double NAT. That's not helpful.

Can i set up an iphone 3GS when my left bottom of my screen isn't responding? (Can't click on '123' button)

So I got an old iPhone 3GS from a friend.
He said he would reset it for me. He also said that sometimes the bottom of the screen isn't responding (only when you use the keyboard).
Now I'm home and I want to set-up the iphone with my icloud and such.
But I can't type my password when I'm in the first time setup on the phone.
Is it possible to do this trough iTunes?
'Cause you can't flip the keyboard on screen 90 degrees.

Can't access a website I use every day...the server where this page is located isn't responding :-(

Hi, I am trying to access the website bloglovin.com which I access everyday (as part of my job) with no problems, however, the last 2 days I have not been able to get on to the site. After waiting for ages for it to load I eventually get the message ' the server where this page is located isn't responding'. I've tried to access from both my macs and my iphone and I get the same message on all of them. Is this a problem with my mac or their server?

Thanks for your reply. I did infact get it working earlier today by putting the IP address into the browser instead of the URL and it solved the problem, however, I now have the same problem again tonight. I've tried restarting the router and it hasn't made any difference. Putting in th IP address isn't working this time either!

The bottom part of my iPod Touch screen isn't responding but I can slide to unlock the screen and slide the icons at the bottom but I just can't click on them, anyway to solve this?

Try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

MacBook failed to respond to Cannon Rebel

I have a Cannon Rebel camera, I have loaded my pictures many times before. However, i am trying to download my pictures and my MacBook doesn't respond. It does not seem to be recognizing the camera is connected.

1 - try image capture (in your applications folder)
2 - get a USB card reader (mine was about $12 at Radio Shack) and read your card directly or drag the photo to a desktop folder and import from there
3 - once you have your photos use your camera to reformat the memory cord - and in the future do not use iPhoto to delete your photos but after they are loaded (and I wait until a backup cycle has taken place) then format the card with your camera -- this avoids photos loss due to problems and renews the card format after each use
