MacBook Pro shuts down and won't charge, battery light on the side is off completely?

Hey guys,
So about 20 minutes ago, I walked over to my macbook pro ('17) to plug in my phone charger. The top was already open, so I didn't have to pull it up. I clicked the touchpad to turn it on, and it turned on for literally half a second, and turned black with a bit of a static noise I believe. As if it blew a fuse.
So I look on the side of the computer where you can press that little button and a bunch of lights will turn on according to battery life, and nothing. Not one light turned on. I got this computer fixed a month ago with a replaced battery, screen, graphics card I believe, and operating system.
What happened?? It won't charge or turn on. Is there any chance I can revive this or is it toast?

Hi, I am having the same exact problem! Anyone who know what to do?

MacBook Pro shuts down and won't turn on

Macbook Pro shut down and won't restart

Hi all
My Macbook Pro is just over one year old so now out of warranty. It just shut down without warning a few weeks ago (nothing strange happened, no water spillage or anything like that) and wouldn't turn back on. When I attached the charger to it there was no little light (either green or orange) and would just do nothing at all. I took it to an authorized Apple technicians (I live in Dubai) and they reset the motherboard and it was working fine. Last week it did exactly the same thing and shut down again and wouldn't turn back on. They're now saying they may need to replace the whole motherboard which is going to cost me a fair bit.
I'm quite annoyed as it is my first Macbook Pro and everybody told me how they never have problems etc etc. Any other suggestions as to what might be the issue or do I just need to shell out for the motherboard? I'd read online that the battery could be the issue but they're saying they tried a new battery in another customer's machine and it didn't work so are replacing the motherboard.
Thanks,
Lauren

It is difficult for anyone to ***** the problems your MBP is experiencing in a setting such as this forum. The best I can do is point you to this troubleshooting article;

MacBook Pro shut down and won't turn on

Hi, my laptop (only a month old) said it needed to restart in order to finish updating OS X, leaving it briefly I went into the kitchen and when I came back I watched as the screen appeared to be going into sleeping mode but upon closer inspection it turned itself off. Now even though it was 100% charged and plugged in won't turn back on. If anyone has tips would be much appreciated, it is the beginning of the week and I won't be able to get to a mac store until the weekend due to my classes.
Thanks

Ensure the mac is plugged in.
Hold the power button down and keep it pressed down while you count to 10, then release.
Press the power button once and immediately release. The mac should not start to boot up as normal.

My new MacBook Pro shut down and won't turn on.

I connected it to the charger and there is no light to indicate that it's charging . What do I do ? Should I be really worried ? I just got it about a month ago

If your machine won't charge, you could try an SMC reset - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3964 - and, if that doesn't work and since you're still under warranty, take your machine to your local Apple Store or an AASP and have them diagnose and fix the computer.

Take it in for service. Either the charger has failed or something on the motherboard.

If you haven't already done so, try this simple step first.

My MacBook suddenly shut down and won't turn back on - how do I get it to turn back on?

My MacBook suddenly shut down after freezing up and I cannot get it to turn back on again. I tried the suggestions in the manual and none of them worked to turn it back on. Is there something I am not doing correctly? The little green light on the charger connector is green but not as bright as normal, it was charged by over 70% before it shut down, so I do not think it is a battery problem. Is there anything I can do to turn it back on? Thank you for any help given, I really appreciate it.

If it won't bong, then try an SMC reset.

MacBook randomly shut down, and won't turn back on

First of all, hello. Secondly, I've got a problem with my MacBook: about half an hour ago, it randomly shut down and when I tried to turn it back on, it didn't. Instead, the backlight kept flickering at the tempo that something inside the computer was "clicking", and the longer I held the power button, the more "clicks" there were. Needless to say, I've tried charging the battery, resetting the SMC, and to no avail: I still can't power it up, even when I don't use my battery. Whether I use it or not, the MacBook still "clicks" during my pressing of the power button and stops "clicking" when I release it. My MacBook is a year old. Can someone help me out here?

Me too. Any resolution? I don't want to take it to my local apple place because they're retards, but according to the info on my warranty that's the only place available. Can't believe they don't have an RMA service direct to Cupertino, what a joke.

Help mepls regarding my mbp shutdown and doesnt turn on

Arnelche,
which model MacBook Pro do you have? When you press the button next to your battery indicator lights, how many of them light up? Are you able to test your AC charger with another MacBook Pro, or to test another AC charger with your MacBook Pro, to make sure that your AC charger is working properly?

Macbook pro shuts down during reboot after flat battery

Hi, I have a macbook pro (early 2011) And it went flat two nights ago whilst watching a movie. It was plugged in but I've been having charger issues. Anyway, now that it's fully charged, whenever i turn it on it gets to the apple logo with a progress bar (restoring the previous session maybe?), but then shuts down. I've tried a few times and its the same everytime.I suspect that it's trying to restore the last session (the progress bar - I cant recall whether that happens normally) and running into problems because of the flat battery episode. Can a session restore be cancelled?
I can still boot up the windows partition by pressing the option button during start up, its just the mac partition that wont boot. Also, I am still running Snow Leopard (what it came with, though with all updates).any help would be greatly appreciated.

Anyone?

Macbook shuts down and won't charge

I have had my macbook pro '13 for four years now. Today, I was watching a show and it shut down out of nowhere while charging. It turned back on, but the year and time were all off. I took it to the Apple store and the battery was at 1100 when it should be at 1000 or something. Everything else was normal, and my charger was working when he plugged it in. Well, I am home now and it happened again. The charger will not light up. I tried the command, option, P, R thing and nothing came up. I really do not have $130 to dish out to get a new battery....any suggestions?

Yes. Buy a new battery.

On starting up, my macbook pro shuts down after 25 seconds of booting up.

Hi there. On starting up, my macbook pro shuts down after 25 seconds of booting up. The time bar comes on for a while before it simply goes blank and switches off without any notification. Battery iappears charged. Could it be a virus? Help please!! O

Reinstall Lion, Mountain Lion, or Mavericks without erasing drive
Boot to the Recovery HD:
Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the 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.
Repair
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 then click on the Repair Permissions button. When the process is completed, then quit DU and return to the main menu.
Reinstall Mountain Lion or Mavericks
OS X Mavericks- Reinstall OS X
OS X Mountain Lion- Reinstall OS X
OS X Lion- Reinstall Mac OS X
Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet
if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.
