Macbook pro wont turn on but charger lighting

Last night my ceiling leaked wah nowon my macbook pro 2012 model 13" .
I immediatley followed steps people all recommend (turn it upside down, unplug it from plug, turn off, dry up, put in rice, blow dry.). I couldnt take the battery out bc I dont have the proper screw driver. I thought over 24 hours in optimum conditions would do, so I tried turning it on.
It didnt turn on. I put in the charger, it turned green. I look at the side and see 1 green light flashing (indicating I have 1 bar?).
Anyway, im really lost what do here. Is it officially broken? Should I buy screw driver and take out battery? Any idea the next steps? Im trying to stay optimistic but I have no idea about the diagnosis....I have read many forums but none I can fully relate to
Please help!!!!
Thanks

Take the computer to an Apple store or an AASP. Whichever is more convenient for you.
Liquid damage is not covered under Apple's standard 1 year warranty or Apple Care.
NOTE: If you are out of warranty and purchased the computer with a credit card, discuss the warranty issue with the credit card company which you purchased the computer with. They are the only ones who can at this point cover the computer after it goes out of warranty with the manufacturer (Apple).
If you have Homeowners insurance, place a claim with them.

Make a PRAM reset > http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1379 Also, reset the SMC > http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3964
If they don't work, that may be a display or GPU issue. Take your MacBook Pro to an Apple Store or reseller. If you want to know which is the part, connect an external display

My macbook pro will turn on but screen stays black. There is no sound on start up and keys dont light up. I have done all the resets:
I disconnected the computer from the power cord, and from all other cables.
I held down the power button for several seconds to turn off the computer.
I let it sit 5 minutes.
I restarted the laptop while holding down the Shift key and nothing happened.

I need lots of help!!! any ideas? Its a MacBook Pro 15” or 17.5” about 5 years old. Its about 2 updates behind (OS: Snow Leopard)

Zane W is giving you good advice. Take it to an Apple store genius bar and have them examine it for free. You then will know what the issues are and then can make informed decisions.
Ciao.

My 4month old Macbook pro wont turn on unless plugged in, but remains on after unplugged.

I got a brand new macbook pro 4months old. What happens is it does not turn un unless it is plugged in when I unplug it though it is fine and will run till it dies, BUT if I were to close it and put it to sleep it will not turn back on. I would have to plug it back in and turn it on then I can unplug it and it will be fine till it falls back asleep.
Once I do turn it back on, a pop up says that I need to re adjust the clock and another trying to search for the internet, even if I was already connected with is 5 min ago. Even apps like tweetdeck and facbook would reset and I would have to enter all my information again, where as before it would just remain there.
I have NO idea why it is like this and I am not really familiar with a Mac and its OS but any information would be greatly appreciate!
Thanks!
Yoshi

Bring it to an Apple store or AASP. You are under warranty.

My Macbook PRO wont turn on!!!

Hi Guys,
My Macbook Pro went to sleep due to no battery last night. When I woke up today, I pluged in the power cord to my Laptob and It shows me that the battery is full now.
However, I'm unable to turn my Macbook Pro on. I purchased this laptob only a few weeks ago so It is not the old version. I tried to reset the SMC as well, but It does not work. I dont hear the spinning of the hard drive nor any of its fan...It looks completeley dead and I cannt turn it on. The battery light shows full battery...But it just dead.
Can any one help with that?

Personally, I would not troubleshoot a "new" computer that will not start. Especially one that is "weeks" old. You are still under warranty and I strongly suggest that you take advantage of your 90 days of FREE phone tech support from Apple. Call them asap!!
Good luck!

Macbook Pro wont turn on - sometimes

I have mid-2009, 13 inch Macbook Pro. Recently I am noticing trouble. Once in a while when I put it to sleep by closing the lid, the light stays lit (which is suppose to go on and off indicating sleep). And when I open the lid, there is nothing on the screen and the light goes away. I close the lid, again the light lits up and stays up. So the macbook wont turn on.
Does anyone have any idea why is this? I sometimes keep the power button pressed for 5-6 seconds and force shutdown and boot again and then it works. Is it a good idea? is there any other way in these situation?
Is there something wrong in the hardware?
Please help ...

Sachadon,
Welcome to Apple Discussions.
When you try to wake your computer when opening the lid have you tried tapping one of the keys on the keyboard to wake it?
If that does not work then try doing a SMC reset follow these instructions.
SMC RESET
It is possible you are having hardware problems with the lid sensor but let try some other steps first.
Regards,
Roger

New Macbook Pro Wont turn after discharge

Hello everyone,
I just purchased my 3rd mac in the past 2 years, yeah that's how hooked I am, now windows free 99% and love it...
My brand new macbook pro has a very annoying issue.. if I use it on battery power and it discharges completely I have to wait up to 15 minutes after connecting it to power to be able to turn it back on again. this is so frustrating as I am sometimes doing some work and have to get away from the computer for a few minutes.. If it discharges within that time and I come back to continue my work guess what.. I need to wait all this time even after connecting it to power to resume my work...
Does anyone has the same problem? is this normal? I've searched google and haven't found the same problem on anyone else unless they are OK with that and just don't report it... I've never had this problem with any other laptop I own and is extremely annoying, my wife's macbook doesn't do that, if it discharges and goes to sleep you can just connect the magsafe adapter and it will come right back up.
your comments will be greatly appreciated.

My MBP has always come back immediately. So has my old iBook. I rarely discharge my battery completely, but will do so on occasion to calibrate it. But I have never had the problem you describe. My personal opinion is that the long delay is definitely not normal.
Out of curiosity, next time your Mac shuts down like this, remove the battery and see if it will start up immediately. If it does, you could possibly have a faulty battery. If it still takes a lot of time to start up with the battery removed, there is something else wrong. I have never heard of anything quite like this. Since you didn't mention excessive heat, that wouldn't be a factor.
Be sure you can reproduce the condition for the Apple genius. They have to see it to be able to do anything. Go in a bit early with a low battery and run it out in the store, so you can show them exactly what it is doing.
Good luck!

MacBook Pro Not turning on, loud fan

My friends 13in MacBook Pro won't turn on. The light on the bottom near the remote reciever is on and there is a very loud fan noise.

If the light is on and the fan is running then the system is on, even though you can't see anythinig on the screen.
Press and hold down the power button for 5-10 seconds to shut the system down. Once that light goes off and the fans stop spinning try to start it again by just pressing the power button once. If you get the startup chime and something on the screen then it might be ok and it was just hunge. If there is nothing on the screen and it doesn't give the startup chime thenn the system needs to be taken to apple to be looked at and diagnosed as to the problems with it.

HT201177 Macbook Pro is turned on but the screen is black.

Ok, I have read A LOT of discussions on this issue but it seems like nothing works.
I bought my Macbook Pro 13" in September 2012 (so i've had it for a little over a year) in the States. So, I was just using the laptop a couple nights ago, then I closed the lid to the Sleep mode. Then, yesterday morning, I plugged in the charger and unplugged it after the batter's full (showed the green light). Later on that day in the afternoon, I opened the lid to wake up the laptop...but the SCREEN wouldn't display.... It has remained BLACK .... I KNOW the mac is still working..cuz when I turn it on the Caps Lock button shows green light and the sleeping light at the front is working...
I don't think it's RAM problem...cuz I did that Option-Comman-P-R thingy..and held it until I heard the third startup chime... (I held those keys at the SAME time...WAS I SUPPOSED TO press them one by one??)
Last method I used was the SAFE mode...and now the VOLUME buttons and the keyboard light buttons Dont work now.....
PLEASE HELP!!! THANK YOUUUU!!!

Please make a Genius Appointment and take it in for service.

HT3964 Macbook pro wont turn on

I have resetted the SMC on my macbook pro and now caps lock light turns on when I turn on my laptop, however the power button still does not light up and the screen still does not work. When I first try to turn it on I hear a very soft high pitch sound for about a second but nothing happens after that. At this point should I just bring it to the apple store?

Yes, take it in for service. Be sure to take you AC adapter just in case it's gone bad.
