Macbook pro refusing to turn on for longer than two seocunds

i have a macbook pro early 2008 model that is refusing to turn on for more than two seconds. it makes the hard drive sound as if it is about to book then shuts down. if i hold the power button it stays on for maybe 5 seconds before the little led at the front flashes rapidly then it turns off. i have tried every type of reset and i have even tried heating the logic board but none of this seems to work? it was fine until it didnt want to wake up from sleep so i restarted then it started doing this to me i have never had any problems with it previously. what should i do?

Take it to an Apple store or AASP.

MacBook Pro doesn't turn on for any reason

I've got a Mid-2008 (Unibody) MacBook Pro. The battery has always been iffy, so I had it constantly plugged in. I recently made the mistake of letting it run out of battery, and now it's not starting, no matter what I do.
To be clear, I have no LED indicator light, no noises, no startup chime, no nothing. I've attempted to follow the instructions here:
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1367?viewlocale=en_US
I reset the SMC, and it did nothing. The only indication of a sign of life is when I press the battery level indicator button on the side, it shows that the battery is fully charged.
I tried plugging it in and removing the battery, and that didn't help. I attempted to start it without being plugged in, nothing, etc.
Are there any more things I can try?

Make an appointment at an Apple store genius bar. They will diagnose your MBP for free and then you will; be in a position to make an informed decision.

How to turn a Macbook Pro into a second display for another Macbook Pro

So my school just gave me a Macbook Pro and I already have a Macbook Pro. I would like to know if I could turn my school Macbook Pro into a second display for my regular Macbook Pro. Thank You!
Both Macs are running Mavericks 10.9.4

If you need administrative access and it is denied to you, then there is no way, as ScreenRecycler and AirDisplay do need administrative access to be installed.

MacBook Pro (15-inch, Late 2011) It turns on for less than 60 sec thens shutsoff by itself, it won't load to recovery hd partition, won't load to mac OS and already replaced with new MLB, but the problem still persist.. able to run ASD EFI but ASD OS wont work.please help thanks in advance

Holy crap, I got it to work.
Essentially, I just waited until DiskWarrior reached Step 9 and told it to skip the step before it had a chance to freeze. It skipped successfully, moved on, rebuilt and replaced the faulty directory files.
So far the computer is booting like normal, I can log in, and I'm currently copying all of the data to an external as I type this.
I still have no idea why the computer wouldn't mount or boot to any drive, but I guess I'll deal with that later.

Try a #1 SMC Reset and see the Apple links, if that doesn't work make a appointment for a evaluation.

Try resetting your SMC and PRAM.

Is there a key on the MacBook Pro to toggle display options for a projector

I have had some difficulty getting my InFocus projector to consistently work correctly with my MacBook Pro. Is there a key on the MacBook Pro that toggles the options for projector display? There was one on my last MacBook and my previous PowerBook.
Thanks -
Dudley Warner

No, there is no longer a key to control external display modes (it's F7 on my 1st gen MBP, but the option was removed along with the embedded numeric keypad in the Early 2008 models). There's not a substitute keyboard shortcut (with the exception of installing a macro player like Keyboard Maestro). Your main option is System Preferences > Displays (as stated, ticking the box to show Displays in the menu bar provides a helpful shortcut).

Mid-2009 Macbook Pro will not turn on

Hi Folks,
so my mid-2009 15in Macbook Pro will not turn on. I updated the OS to Mavericks in December 2013. I'm from California, but I recently moved to the Guam/Marianas area where it is more humid and generally around 87 degrees F all day. For the past month my computer has worked fine, albeit I did notice the fan was running a little more than usual. I usually would just put it into sleep mode when I would finish using it (apparently a bad idea based off of reading other posts concerning humidity and, more importantly, heat). One day I finished using it, closed it and the next day went to open it; I could hear the fans start to work, but then it stopped. It hasn't turned on since. You press the power button and nothing happens. I tried all the troubleshooting stuff.
So, my question is this: what do you think is the problem? Moreover, how much do you think it could cost to repair it? My experience with computers suggests to me that it's probably a dead motherboard. I'm wondering if it's worth trying to salvage this thing or if it would be prohibitively expensive. There are no Apple stores in the area to take it in to get advice unfortunately.
Now, I just want to vent a little frustration. I have many apple products, and I've even switched my mother over to an apple computer, but now that I need some very basic support, apple doesn't provide a contact e-mail or a free chat? I think charging someone $19 for 'one time assistance' is ludicrous. I bet if I brought this into an apple store I could at least get some advice, and thus get some idea how I want to proceed with repairs or not. I suppose I'm also rather frustrated that my macbook, which I have been most happy with all these years, breaks because I go somewhere a little more humid and generally warmer? It would appear that the hardware failure is connected to the climate. This makes me skeptical about purchasing another mac if it can't handle a little humidity. (I have not spilled liquids on it, nor have used this computer while transitioning from an air-conditioned/humid location which could potentially cause condensation). I do not think I'm being unreasonable (yes I do think a $2500 computer should not fail after less than 5 years), but if you think I am unreasonable, please enlighten me.
Thanks for any help. I really appreciate it.
Ken

Ken,
the “Important Handling Information” in the little white manual that came in the box with your MacBook Pro states that its operating temperature range is from 50 °F to 95 °F (10 °C to 35 °C), and that its operating range of relative humidity is 5% to 90% (non-condensing). If your corner of the Pacific is outside of these ranges, the manual states that “Failure to follow these handling instructions could result in damage to your MacBook Pro”.
I have no idea what problem your MacBook Pro has; since you’ve tried all of the troubleshooting stuff, you’ll need to somehow get your MacBook Pro to a qualified service facility to diagnose the problem. If the logic board does need to be replaced, it would probably cost hundreds of dollars for a replacement, and you might find that purchasing a replacement used MacBook Pro of the same model to be price-competitive with just replacing your MacBook Pro’s logic board.
If you find Apple’s out-of-warranty policies unacceptable, then your only alternative to venting would be to purchase your next computer from a different company which has out-of-warranty policies more to your taste.

MacBook Pro: How to turn on keyboard tactile sound

For my MacBook Pro: How to turn on the keyboard tactile sound !

I've been on Macs since about 1988 and never saw that option offered from the base system.
I Googled "mac keyboard click sound" and got a lot of hits for third-party software solutions. Give that a try.

Facetime on MacBook Pro, Iphone and Ipad mini no longer works?

Facetime on MacBook Pro, Iphone and Ipad mini no longer works after years of working just fine. I get the message that I am connecting then it instantly just disconnects. Has worked fine for over two years with no issue until about a month ago?
I have investigated and tried things like re-setting apple ID and deleting the plist file etc, nothing works.
My Wife is having same problems in a different location so deffinatly not a problem with my wi-fi.

With the same iMessage account, or a different one?

After a year of no use and a fully discharged battery, my MacBook Pro refuses to accept the administrator name and the password. How can I reset these?

After a year of no use and a resulting fully discharged battery, the MacBook Pro refuses to recognize the administrator name and password (both). It has system OS X 10.6 which can not be upgraded without the information. How can I reset or reistall the administrator name and password?

Thanks to all who responded. You are all absolutely correct. However, this Ipad was a gift to my wife who was dying of cancer in the hospital and wanted some entertainment. So I started it out with her Apple ID. After she passed away I moved from Sacramento to Austin and eventually proceeded to get the Apple ID changed from my wife's to mine. Meanwhile when she was in the hospital I opened an Itunes account in my name to buy movies for her. That was the first mistake.
Then during the move to Austin I lost track of the IPAD and later found it and tried to use support but could not remember the proper ID. Later the folks at the Apple store helped me create a new and novel Apple ID that was unfortunately unlike any other.
The botom line is that I am stuck with three Apple IDs and three passwords. I am told by Apple there is nothing they can do about this as IDs cannot be changed or destroyed. I can quit using them or start a new account but when I try to do that the system keeps remembering too many things from the past and resists.
Even if I sold this Ipad and bought a new one, the system memory is still there.
I think the real problem is that destop and laptop computers are totally owned by an individual and that individual can control logins and passwords to his liking. IPADs and similar Apple products are different in that the corporation has built in their own intrusion detection schemes because of the relation to Itunes.
One thing I thought about is to open a new Itunes account pretendding to be a new customer with my regular Apple ID. Perhaps I could do the same with Apple Support.
Thanks for your comments.

Help - MacBook Pro won't turn on

Help - my macbook pro will not turn on even though it is plugged in. Holding down the power button is ineffective. The power cord has the green "charged" light, but when I plugged it in, it wasn't charged and never did charge (the light never was orange). The computer worked perfectly this morning.

Will it not turn on at all or do you just get a gray screen?
If a gray screen, look at this:
https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-5282
If it does not turn on at all, try a SMC reset:
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht3964
If the reset fails to bring life to the MBP, make an appointment at an Apple store genius bar for a free evaluation.
Ciao.

My macbook pro has been running slow for quite some time

Hello, my MacBook Pro has been running slow for quite some time now and it's frustrating. I hope you'll be able to help me. I've read this thread and figured out I should open a new one, so here it is.
I've already downloaded Etrechech and ran it and this is what I got:
