MacBook Pro doesn't turn on after Win8 bootcamp installation

Hi,
I have installed Windows 8 on my MacBook Pro Retina 15,7" 500Gb 16GbRAM with the Bootcamp assistant. After that, i lowered the screen (like if i wanted to go on repose mode) and then, my mac doesn't turn on anymore.
All in black, no grey screen but the charge seems to work (the Green LED turns on when i connect it on the electricity, this is the only sign that something is still "alive" there)
Thank you all for the help!

Its coming today, but i am just wondering if this is normal for macbook pro not to turn on randomly?

Hi - I have the exact same model as your MacBook and had a few questions as mine is acting up. I upgraded the ram to 8gb (2x 4GB ram) and ever since then my computer has not been running as smoothly and the start up time is horrendous. Have you encountered this problem? And if so how did you fix? What would you advise me do?
I was thinking of reverting back to the original factory 4GB then rebooting the entire computer. Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance!

Macbook pro doesn't turn on after full charge?

Hi, I bought used macbook pro yesterday from ebay. The macbook arrived clean in a secure box, i turned it on and it worked stright from there. I used it on battery for like 4 hours and then i shut it down and put it on charge and went to work. When i came back and i saw the battery was fully charged. i unplugged the macbook pro and tried to power it on. The macbook pro didn't respond, no light, no chime, no hard disk noise and no white screen!!
It just made me so much worried and started looking over the net. I found out some reset options and tried but invain. After all this i was so much stressed that i tried to contact the seller. The seller said he had it for about two years and never had any problem like that.
However I tried to power it up in morning and it just powered up and worked flawlessly.My question is what could have went wrong there?? I'm just worried if that problem is gonna come back again and again. I never had this sort of problem on my Vaio laptop. Is there anything that i dont understand about macbook or be cautious about??
However I must confess, I used 60W megsafe charger but only when my laptop was switched off and I was aware not to run it on 60W charger.
Thanks,
Adnan

My macbook pro doesn't wake up after sleep

my macbook pro doesn't wake up after sleep

I'm having the same issue. I've had my logic board replaced twice now, which I did last week and then Monday I had to take it to a Genius Bar again because my hard drive cable was malfunctioning. I don't know why it's happening but I'm really starting to get frustrated with my machine. I bought my MacBook Pro brand new last year in September and ever since I've dropped it in November, it's been really glitchy. After I dropped it, I had to replace my Logic board, graphics card, and hard drive and they covered it.

I own a late 2009 Macbook Pro, and it keeps freezing after OSX Lion installation.

I own a late 2009 Macbook Pro, and it keeps freezing after OSX Lion installation. I will post my computer's 'specs' below. I installed Lion, from Snow Leopard, through the App store. The first week, it worked like a dream, and was loving my brand new computer, or so it seemed. I then began to run into problems, and I can't confirm this 100%, but I believe it was after I updated from 10.7.1, to 10.7.2.
The freezes are sporatic at best, and cannot be narrowed down to one app. I googled the issue about two weeks ago, and found a fix involving a temporary log-in, verifying the disk, restarting the computer holding CMD+R, and repairing the disk from there. That fixed the problem. For about three or four days. From there I brought my laptop to Best Buy, where I purchased the computer (start the groans, my dad wanted the accidental damage, and he was paying, there was no argument). My warranty there was still good, but all they were offering was to check my hard-drive, and possibly ship it out. That would not be good for me, as I am a High School student, who works online.
So I then decided to go to the Apple store, see what they said. They said a bunch of people had this problem, it would cost a lot to fix, as I would need a new Logic Board. This did not make any sense to me, as I knew it was Lion's fault, so why would they not make the L-2009MBP Logic Board compatible, and why are only a few people having this problem, well a lot more than a few, but I mean not everyone.
So I asked a friend about it, and we decided to run a back up, and erase the computer, and re-install Lion. Figuring maybe my data was corrupted during install. This helped for a day or two, and happened again. So this time, we backed up only files (music, pics, documents, etc.,) and did a fresh install. I got my computer back last night. Now, I am not saying that didn't help. Previously I would have frozen about 18 times well writing this, but I have not frozen once (hopefully I didn't just jinx myself). I have gone from about one freeze every 10-15 minutes (sometimes worse), to about one every 1-3 hours. Which, let's be honest is still a lot.
So, before I just decide to go and revert to Snow Leopard on my merry way, I ask, do any of you have any other ideas? Or guarenteed fixes? I know a guarentee is a hard thing to ask for, but I am desperate, my teachers are getting angry with me for not sending work, and I know this would help a lot of people. Thank you to those who read through my whole spiel, and thank you to those who will help me!
[Ps, while I am somewhat of a noob, I know my way around a computer, so any help, or knowledge you could bestow upon me is awesome. Especially DIY fixes. (if your only advice is, don't buy a mac at Best Buy, don't bother commenting)]
Macbook Pro

Once it is downloaded you need to restart the computer if it does not restart automatically. When it next starts up you should note a progress bar appearing below the Apple logo. When done the computer will restart once more. The new firmware should now be installed.

MacBook Pro won't turn on after it goes to sleep

Everytime I fold it and it goes to sleep and re-open it, it doesn't turn on. I have to hold the power button and turn it on and off for about 15 minutes before it finally comes on. The battery is 100% charged and I got my MacBook Pro only a couple of months ago. The only other problem is ther everytime I restarted my computer, every desktop background automaticly reverts back to the first one. If anyone can tell me whats wrong please help.

Macbook Pro Doesn't Turn On

Hi there.
I have a 15' Unibody Macbook Pro.
Recently my Macbook became unable to hold a charge, but still worked on the AC Adapter just fine.
I didn't take it in right away and used it as is. One night the adapter was pulled from the macbook and it quickly went to sleep, i reattached the magsafe and it came back to life. A few minutes later I stupidly did the same thing and it went to sleep. I attempted to bring it back to life after plugging it back in, but nothing happened. It has yet to turn on yet. What can I do?

Welcome to Apple Discussions.
I think if you replace the battery and follow the instructions for it's care you machine will be fine.
In the short term do a SMC reset following these instructions:
*SMC RESET*
1. Shut down the computer.
2. Plug in the MagSafe power adapter to a power source, connecting it to the Mac if its not already connected.
3. On the built-in keyboard, press the (left side) Shift-Control-Option keys and the power button at the same time.
4. Release all the keys and the power button at the same time.
5. Press the power button to turn on the computer.
Regards,
Roger

MacBook Pro doesn't turn off or restart

Hello!
I have a MacBook Pro 15,4 " 2,2 Ghz Core 2 Duo with Mac Os X 10.4.10 and all the updates. I have been experiencing some problems when I try to restart or switch off the computer. All the programs will close down and the "Mac Os x interface" (The top bar, the dock, the icons on the desktop) dissapear (as they do when you normally try to shut it / restart it), but my actual background picture will remain there for ages, as the computer doesn't restart or shut down.
It just remains there until.....I decide to shut it down by pressing the power on/off button.
Are there any other users with this problem? Should I call Apple/go to an Apple Store (and stay without laptop for almost a week?).
Any advice on this issue would be kindly appreciated.
Regards.

I ran into a similar situation after I had reinstalled the OS and updates. I tried several things like disconnecting my external drives, forcing a shut down, taking the battery out then outting the battery back in and starting up. I think worked was Resetting MacBook Pro System Management Controller (SMC)

My MacBook pro will not turn on after connecting to an external display

I connected my MacBook pro to a projector for a presentation using a VGA adapter. It worked for a couple of minutes, then my computer shut off and I can not turn it back on. It has never given any trouble before then. Now when I try to turn it on, the white led comes on briefly, then it makes a tone and nothing happens, the screen stays dark, any idea what is wrong????

Probably option, command, P, and R to reset the pram. Article at link.

MacBook Pro won't turn on after crash. Magsafe charger LED light blinking rapidly

Hi. I hope you can help me.
I have a macbook Pro 13", from september 2012, which crashed earlier today:
I was charging my iphone through USBport on my macbook (not an Apple USB-iPhone power-cable) .
My MacBook was charging through the magsafe charger (about 30% power i think).
I took the phone out to make a call, when that was done, I reconnected the phone to my mac for further charging.
My MacBook crashed instantly. I took out the USB cable, tried to turn on my mac, but nothing happened. There was no light in the magsafe LED.
The crashing has happened before, when I've been charging my phone through USB connections, but I've always been able to turn my mac back on.
This time nothing happened when I pushed the power button. It had comepletely shorted out.
BTW. Earlier today I received a "storage almost full" warning on my mac, and I was actually in the middle of cleaning that up (deleting downloads and trash files).
Typical and just my luck!
Now, a few hours later, I tried restoring SMC (shift+ctrl+alt+power), and now the charger LED is blinking rapidly (but faintly) orange.
Do you have any ideas on how to fix this? All applestores nearby are closed today, I live in Denmark.
Thank you so much in advance!
Kind regards Emilie

Try the SMC reset again:

Then try a NVRAM reset:
https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT204063
Then try a safe boot:

If no success, then you will have to take it in for service.
Ciao.
