Macbook Pro suddenly turned off, not charging either.

My Macbook Pro suddenly turned off last night. I've tried all the troubleshoots listed in the user manual. Thought it was just batt low but it would not even charge, neither the battery sign located on the left side wouldn't show any sign/blink/color. Please help me, it's just 8-month old and Im not sure what could be the reason of this problem. PLEASE AND THANK YOU

Ambient light sensing
Keyboard backlighting

Battery status indicator lights

  • Help!!! My Macbook Pro suddenly turns off

    Towards the end of my work day, my Macbook Pro suddenly shut off. I thought I had accidently pressed the power button or something, and so I turned it back on. However, 10 minutes later it randomly shut off again. The power was at about 80%. I connected the laptop to charge, and I was able to use it perfectly with no problem. After about an hour, I unplugged it and it continued to turn off again.
    I am currenly running Mac OS X Version 10.6.8. I have included the power status, to see if this might be of any help.
    CAN SOMEBODY PLEASE HELP ME?
    Thanks!

  • Macbook Pro suddenly turned off when fully charged and won't restart. Charger not working either coincidently

    My 2 year old 13" MacbookPro suddenly turned off, presumably when the screen automatically dimmed (or went to sleep?) and now it won't turn back on. It was at 96% charge and now when I use the battery checker on the side, nothing shows up. No lights or anything. The charger doesn't seem to work either even after trying it on different outlets. This has never happened before but it has been harder to wake it from sleep in the last 6 months or so. I would have to push the On/Off button for a sec and the screen would turn back on. Also when I turn it on, the password screen is sometimes off-centered..weird.
    I'm using Yosemite, the latest version..not sure what it is and can't check right now...I had to go use a PC to ask this question >_<

    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
    Your Mac can't find any bootable partition.
    1. Insert the Mac OS X DVD that came with the Mac and press C key while your Mac is starting.
    2. Select Utilities > Disk Utility, choose Macintosh HD in the sidebar and repair the disk. If it doesn't work, take the Mac to an Apple Store.
    Also, open  > Startup Disk, select Macintosh HD and restart. Maybe your Mac has forgotten the startup partition

  • NO power on my MacbookPro: it all started with Battery of my MacBook Pro saying it was not charging (even if the pro was plugged) and it then switched off and now wont turn back on. There is no light on the magsafe and no startup noises at all.

    If you have Apple Care or your computer is still under warranty, give them a call and get a case number.  Otherwise, take the computer to an Apple store or an AASP.  Whichever is more convenient for you.

  • My one day old MacBook pro just turned off and it won't come back on either through mains or battery power

    My one day old MacBook pro just turned off and it won't come back on either through mains or battery power it's as if the unit is completely dead. Even with the mains plugged in there is no green or orange light to say its charging or full charged. The battery was fully charged anyway seconds before the screen went off.

    When you say no green or orange light are you refering to the little led on the magsafe connector?  That could mean either the charger/cable are bad or the circuitry in the MBP is faulty.  Since this is a brand new MBP best bet is to take it back to an Apple Retail store and have the genius bar staff take a look.  They can determine if it needs to be reparired or replaced.

  • Macbook pro 17 turns off when switching to high performance mode

    Hi guys!
    My 2009 Macbook pro 17 turns off and goes dead when switching to "high performance" graphics in the energy saver controll panel.

    I guess ur solution isnt worth trying on a fresh system install?
    It will not do any harm trying it but you are probably correct in these circumstances. 
    If the symptoms are consistent, then a savvy technician at an Apple store genius bar should be able to define the problem.

  • Macbook Pro Early 2011 says (Not Charging)

    Hello, my Macbook Pro Early 2011 says (Not Charging) when I unplugged the charger, so I can't see how much battery percentage it has, the battery life runs normally, but I can't see where it goes because of the (Not charging) message. I can only see it when I plug the power adapter, but once I unplugged it, it comes the (Not charging) message again. please help. thank you.

    ok, the problem is that it says (Not charging) even though the power adapter is not plugged in. It is charging normally but doesn't show the battery percentage because it shows a (Not charging) message. The only way to know the battery percentage is plugging in the power adapter, but once I unplugged it, the (Not charging) message appears again and don't let me see how much battery it has left.
    PS: English is not my first language so I'm doing my best to be understood

  • Macbook pro freeze+turned off

    Hi, I'm using macbook pro 15" 2.4GHz with Lion OSX 10.7.4 (i've just updated it for a couple weeks)
    I've just experienced that my mac suddenly freeze (i was using iTunes, adobe illustrator, and my adium+skype was on) and turned off.
    It goes on again (showing the same screen as before it turned off) in a minute but i still can't move the cursor.
    So the only thing that i can do is just press & hold  the power button until it turns off.
    Does anybody know why is this happen?
    When it happened, my battery was 60% and i didn't plug in the charger.
