MacBook Pro won't turn on and won't charge

My MacBook Pro will not turn on and it appears to not charge. my charger blinks a orange light when I plug it in but the light is very dim. any suggestions?

Bring it to an authorized service center and have them try one of their chargers on it.  If the charger doesn't work, then have the battery replaced.  If the battery being replaced doesn't charge, replace the power supply.

  • So I have a MacBook Pro 2013. That won't turn on and won't charge.

    So I have a MacBook Pro 2013. That won't turn on and won't charge. When the charger is plugged in the light remains green as if it is fully charge. Before it died the laptop still recognized the charger but wouldn't charge. And now won't turn on.

    If you've a 2013 model, depending on when you purchased the machine, I would suppose that you're still under warranty or at least purchased AppleCare? Regardless, I would take the kit to your local Apple Store or an AASP and have them diagnose the computer (and, if you're still under warranty, fix the computer) and, if necessary, give you an estimate for repair.
    There are all sorts of things that could be wrong - a faulty adapter, bad cabling, even the entire electrical circuitry may have gone bad.
    You won't know unless you had an Apple tech look it over.
    Good luck,

    Hey raphaccarvalho
    If your iPhone is not powering on, then check out the article below to see if you can get it to power back on. You will want to start at step 3 to try and reset it by holding the Sleep/Wake button and Home button for about 10 seconds and see if the Apple Logo comes up.
    iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3281
    If a single application is not responding or stops responding when it opens, you can force it to close.
    If the device is unresponsive or if certain controls aren't working as expected, restart your device.
    If the device remains unresponsive or does not turn on (or power on), reset your device.
    If there is no video or if the screen remains black, verify that the device has enough charge to turn on:
    If you are using an iPad, ensure that it's connected to the USB Power Adapter supplied with the device.
    Let it charge for at least twenty minutes, then see if it starts normally.
    If there is no image on the screen, press the Sleep/Wake button to attempt to wake the device.
    If the screen displays a red battery icon, continue charging the device until the battery is fully charged. Learn more about charging iPhone and iPod touch, or iPad.
    If the above steps do not resolve the issue, or the if the screen remains black or shows a persistent Apple logo, try restoring with iTunes:
    Connect the device to your computer and open iTunes.
    If the device appears in iTunes, select and click Restore on the Summary pane. Learn more about restoring iOS software.
    If the device doesn't appear in iTunes, try to force the device into recovery mode, and then restore it.
    If the above steps do not resolve the issue, contact Apple.

  • My MacBook Pro will not turn on, bought a new charge still no power, My MacBook Pro will not turn on, bought a new charge still no power

    My MacBook pro will not turn on bought a new charger and it still will not turn on

    Then your problem isn't with the charger/adapter. Which model MacBook Pro do you have (e.g., "15-inch Late 2011")?
    It's likely that you'd be best served by taking your machine into your local Apple Store or AASP and having the Apple techs run diagnostics. The diagnosis and estimate to repair should be free.

  • My 1 year old Macbook Pro won't turn on and won't charge - no power light at all. Any suggestions?

    My 1 year old Macbook Pro which ran out of warranty this month on the 3rd of June, won't turn on and when I plug in the charger, there is no charging light and it won't turn on.  Can someone tell me what I should do? Has it died? It's only new! And I've never dropped it. Will I loose all my data? Help!

  • What does it mean when my Mac won't turn on and it's charging low?

    My MacBook suddenly just turned off and won't turn on anymore. There's just a blank screen and when I charge it, the green light is low.

    Resetting SMC could solve the problem.

    After charging the iPod for half an hour, see if placing the iPod in recovery mode will allow iTunes to see the iPod so you can restore the iPod.  For recovery mode see:

  • My macbook pro will not turn on and the charger is not lighting up

    please help!! my macbook pro will not turn on at all, when i plug in the charger it will not light up at all, it suddenly shut down when i was using it.

    Is there any charge left in the battery?
    Press the button on the left side, near the front edge. If no green lights appear, battery is flat. And if the power brick ain't workin' (by virtue of its pilot light not glowing), then it will remain flat and the computer will not power up. If this is the case, maybe try with another power brick of similar size and see if it charges.
    Else the logic board is toast and pitbull's on the money.

  • My iPod Touch 5th Gen Won't Turn on and when I charge it it gets really hot

    so I had lost my iPod, but then i found it and it wont turn on and when i charge it it gets really hot. Why???

    Try the remaining items of:                                               
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on           
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try another cable       
    - Try on another computer                            
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order. The Hotness usually indicates a hardware problem

  • HT3964 Macbook pro won't turn on and won't charge

    Hi. I just bought a macbook pro 13" last year August. Unfortunately just today when i used it and plugged my iPad to sync, it shuts down unexpectedly. Then i tried charging it as i thought it maybe because the battery is out but no. The charger won't work as well. I borrowed my cousin's charger yet it still dont work. My charger is working eventually to my cousins mac. Anyone who can help me? I tried SMC but it doesnt work. I need my MAC.

    You need to take your machine into your local Apple Store or an AASP and have them run diagnostics on it. Sounds as if you've a hardware failure.
