MacBook pro died, charged it fully, but won't turn on at all.

Using my MacBook earlier but then it died right when it was in use, yet it's done this before. When to charge it and waited toll it was fully charged. Checked the battery and it said it was all charged. Went to push the power and it won't turn on. The battery seems fine when I push it and all green lights turn on. But why won't the power button turn my computer on or why won't my computer turn on. This has never happens before.

  • Macbook Pro boots to grey screen but won't start up. How do I fix it?

    Today I set my Macbook Pro on the couch but it slipped of and landed on its side (closed) on wood floor.  Nothing broke, it all seems pretty normal.  I pushed the power button to turn it on, but it only loaded to the grey screen with the apple and the spinning circle.  I left it sitting there loading for several minutes, but nothing happened.  I tried force shut down several times and restarted it.  It still did the exact same thing.  How do I fix it?

  • My MacBook Pro has gone off and now won't turn on or charge

    Lastnight my MacBook Pro had full battery and then suddenly
    went off, I tried to turn it back on and it wouldn't. Then I plugged in the charger and usually the little green light on the charger comes on and it didn't. It still won't turn on. Help please

  • MacBook Pro keeps trying to start but won't.

    I have a fairly old (6 years?) MacBook Pro 17", Model A1212, that only starts up when left connected to the power adapter for several hours but then dies.  It has become gradually worse over the last 6 months to the point that it now just gets the desktop screen up, at best, then powers off.  Sometimes the apple screen comes up.  But usually it doesn't get beyond a black screen. I press the on button, fans started whirring, then after a few seconds there's a little wheeze and a beep and it turns off! It sometimes keeps trying to start up on its own but never does successfully.
    The battery is fine.  The fans are fine.
    I guess a visit to an apple shop is due but I'd appreciate any help anyone can offer before doing that.
    Thank you in advance.

    give the SMC a reset and see if that helps http://support.apple.com/kb/ht3964. if not, try to get into hardware test http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1509. after that, i think i can hear your friends at your local apple store calling your name.

  • Macbook pro 2011 has faint green light. won't turn on. what is the issue?

    I've had this problem twice and both times I've gone to the genius bar they've plugged it in and pressed a few buttons and it's working fine. It's a 2011 macbook pro 13 inch. Has a faint green and flickering orange light on the charger. I've tried resetting the SMC and the basic troubleshooting steps. I'm tired of going to the genius bar for a 5 minute fix. I can't turn it back on after it suddenly shuts off. Power button is not responding. It was updated and working fine. Im a student and can't afford to have this problem every week. What is the issue?

    Just face facts - if water (or any other liquid) reached you logic board or any other electronic components, you're going to be the victim of corrosion.
    Eventually, you'll need to have the logic board replaced. There are liquid sensors all over your MBP and the techs can tell if these have been activated. I wouldn't turn the computer on at all - if it were me, I would take it to your local Apple Store/AASP and get an estimate for repair. Rice & other desiccates may 'dry up' the liquid, but it won't undo the damage already done.

  • Macbook Pro battery drained and now it won't turn on

    I have an early 2012 Macbook Pro. A couple of weeks ago my charger broke and I couldn't get a new one straight away, so the battery drained and it shut off. I don't normally let that happen, but there wasn't a whole lot I could do about it this time. I have a new magsafe charger now and the LED is solid orange as normal, but the macbook still wont turn on even though it's been charging for a good 50 minutes now. It sounded like it was booting up a couple of times and the first time the screen lit up grey and the loading animation (grey bars) showed up, but now it's just black again. I know it's going to take longer than normal to charge after the battery being completely drained for so long, but is it normal for it to take so long or does it sound like it's bolloxed?

    Try a SMC reset:

    If no success, make an appointment at an Apple store genius bar for a FREE evaluation.

  • MBP fully charged...But won't turn on... no chome or fan sounds...Help?

    a Mid 2010 MBP... Wont turn on Tried resetting SMC and no luck... the computer won't respond to the power button

    took it to the Genius Bar at Apple Store, logic board was destroyed (unknown mechanism).  Sent it off to the "apple depot" (not in store repair as my early 2008 MBP is now too old) and for $300+ and 5-7 business days, it's back.  Seems to be working?

    The battery's probably drained and the power brick on the fritz. Unfortunately, if she won't start there's little we can do for software-based diagnosis. You'll have to take it in to a Store or Service Provider for assessment.

  • Macbook Pro died and now won't connect to the internet

    I just got home from college and my Macbook Pro died while I was using it because I couldn't find the charger in time to plug it in (stupid mistake that I never ever let happen usually). After I found it, plugged it in, and started it up again, the date and time were messed up on the computer. I reset them to normal and tried to connect to the internet using my old settings, but it hasn't connected.
    I've tried a lot to try and fix it so far and it still won't connect. Other computers and devices (HP and Dell laptops, iPod touches, PS3) that my family have and use all work and connect to the internet fine.
    I've tried to run the Network Diagnostics and after plugging in all of my settings and information, it says that it can't fix it. Next to it on the left, the Airport, Airport Settings, and ISP are all green...but the Network Settings is yellow and the Internet and Server are red.
    I've deleted my internet settings and tried recreating them and that hasn't worked either. I have also tried the Assist Me portion to make a new connection - no luck there.
    I've also tried resetting the Macbook Pro and the router (an Actiontec router for Verizon FIOS) multiple times and that hasn't worked either.
    I unfortunately can't use Time Machine either because I don't have an external hard-drive and haven't set it up.
    I just don't really know what to do at this point. Hopefully someone can help me out!

    Same problem--hoping to get Apple's attention by throwing my hat in the ring with everybody else.
    Things tried (now approaching 2 weeks of failure):
    Deleting "Airport" Connection, Adding/Restarting/Re-adding/etc.
    Archive Install
    Erase & Install (full reinstall done by Genius)
    Card Replacement
    Bluetooth Replacement
    Zapping the PRAM
    Trying different connections/routers/locations/connection types/etc.
    Visited Genius bar 4 times now.
    Have been without the computer longer than I've been with it.
    Trying to change over from a horrifically bad Dell to a refurb Mac worked once before...though I've come to believe: It's not the refurb, it's not the hardware, it's not the settings, it's not the router, it's not the install, it's not the associated software, it's not the connection, it's not the Super Moon that comes up tomorrow...It's a hardware issue as this has been happening since I opened the computer out of the box, and we have an identical computer running identical programs on an identical network with the identical updates and NO problems whatsoever--I'm assuming the innards may have been cheap'ed out somewhere to save a buck or a connector is faulty after a particular build date?
    Full symptom list (in no particular order):
    Connection Timeout
    Connection Drop
    Not recognizing Airport
    Card Recognition but endless connection time
    IP non-recognition
    Random re-connect
    Indication of connection without transmitting/receiving data

  • HI, I just got a Macbook Pro.  It's great but my mail doesn't work at all.  It will come up correctly, but take forever to download messages,  then won't delete them,  then won't save them to folders.  Then when I go to quit mail it's like it gets stuck.

    HI, I just got a Macbook Pro.  It's great but my mail doesn't work at all.  It will come up correctly, but take forever to download messages,  then won't delete them,  then won't save them to folders.  Then when I go to quit mail it's like it gets stuck between quitting and not.  I have to force quit, then restart my computer if I want to pull up my mail again.  How can I fix this?

    If you just got your new MBP you have phone support from Apple (which is quite good) call them.  800-692-7753 tell the automated answerer "mail technical support" you'll have human quite quickly.  Hope this helps.

  • My MacBook Pro has 10.5.8 but came with 10.5.7 install disc and won't boot up and can't reinstall

    My MacBook Pro has 10.5.8 but came with 10.5.7 install disc and won't boot up and can't reinstall.
    the disc is spinning and I see the apple on the screen with the spinning gear and after a while it just turns off OR the few times it does get past that point when I go into disc utility it tells me that it can not install on this machine!
    It's driving me crazy, please help!!!

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    I'm not entirely sure I follow you here, home sharing comes with iTunes 10.2, so far as I am aware even iTunes 10.6.1 only requires OS X 10.5.8 or better. On that basis I'm not sure why you think you have a problem.

    My friend has exact same Mac and CC and he has the same problem. We both have up to date Yosemite and CC versions.
    Any ideas?

    Hi,
    Could you please confirm the CC application you are using.
    It would be great if you post a screenshot of the problem.

    No.
    Power Adapter/ cord wattage
    “Power adapters for Intel-based Apple notebooks are available in 45W, 60W, and 85W varieties. Although you should always use the proper wattage adapter for your Apple notebook, you can use an adapter of a higher wattage without issue.”

  • My MacBook Pro died, but have a TimeMachine backup. I've bought a new one. How do I make the new one just like the old without affecting the OS on the new one?

    One you start up the new one for the first time, Setup Assistant starts and offers you the option of migrating your old Mac to your new Mac with Time Machine, among other choices, as the source. You can also use Migration Assistant (in the Utilities Folder) to do the same thing.
