Mid-2010 MacBook Pro '13 Dead.

So I've had an issue for the past week with my Mid 2010 MacBook Pro 13-inch. For a little while, it has been losing the time, and shut down randomly a few times, but last sunday, it shut down, and wouldn't boot back up. When I press the power button, I get no signs of life, but a very, very quiet 'ticking' noise (only when held down). Not even the light on the front comes on.
I tried disconnecting the battery, and booting with just the power cord. Again, nothing. I even let the laptop drain overnight, with the battery disconnected, still, nothing.
When I plug in the power cord, the light goes orange, but as soon as I press the power button, it goes straight back to green for around 15-20 seconds.
I've got no idea how to sort this, and it's a pretty big problem. I have considered a trip to the Apple Store, but it's waaayyyy out of warranty, so I'm not sure they'd particularly be able to do anything. Any ideas?
Many Thanks, George.

The best thing you can do is take it to an Apple storegenius bar for diagnosis by thetechs, that part of the visit is free.  That way you will have a definitive answer to the problem.  And then make some choices as to repair.
Go to Apple Retail Store at the bottom of this page, Genius Bar in the upper right of the page that opens, Make a Reservation top center of the next page that opens.  Appointments help avoid standing around waiting too long.

  • Mid-2010 MacBook Pro suddenly Dead

    My MacBook Pro was working perfectly fine when I closed the lid and plugged it in.  Fifteen minutes later I opened the lid and nothing happened.  It will not turn on; no signs of life whatsoever.  The only thing it will do is, with the power cord attached, all five of the Battery Life lights on the side light up solid for five seconds or until the cord is unplugged. 
    I am outside the U.S. at the moment and the Mac Authorized repair ship says they do not have the ability to test individual parts and can only replace the entire logic board at a very high price.
    Any ideas?
    Details:
    Mid-2010, 15-inch, 2.4GHz, i5, Lion, confirmed no carbonization or liquid spills.
    Thanks!

    You should follow the instruction given for Condition and replace the battery. It's almost four years old with over a thousand charging cycles.....it's dead.

  • The battery in my mid 2010 Macbook Pro goes dead while plugged in to

    I tend to use my lap top alot with the cord plugged in. Sometimes the indicstor glows red and doesn't charge. Sometimes it glows green and the battery is draining and sometimes it seems to be working properly. I have an app called battery health which gives a more detailed picture. If I do not notice that it's draining, I never get a warning about low battery power. It will just shut down. I wil unplug and plug in the charger a couple of times and set it asaide for a while to recharge. When I restart the date reverts to some time in 2008 and the battery health app saws to trash and redownload it. Any ideas what is causing this?

    You need to stick with RAM spec'd to your computer. You won't receive the benefit of the 1333 RAM as your computer will default to 1066. Not to mention, the 1333 may not even work. Stick with what's spec'd for your computer...Mac's are very picky about RAM.

  • Mid 2010 Macbook Pro Keeps Restarting due to Kernel Panic. Ideas for how to fix?

    So my Mid 2010 Macbook Pro keeps randomly restarting, and giving me a screen that says something like "your computer restarted due to a problem."
    Looks like it as a kernel panic, but I have no idea what this is.  Seems to be no pattern for when it crashes.  Used to do it maybe once a month and now this is the 5th time in two days.
    Any idea what might be going on? Looked at past threads but nothing seemed to apply. 
    Here's the issue report:

  • Mid-2010 MacBook Pro stuck in clamshell mode?

    I asked a similar question to this earlier, but now the problem has been more consistent. I have a mid-2010 MacBook Pro that I often use with an external display, plugged in via mini-DVI to HDMI adapter. The problem is, after I've unplugged my macbook to "go mobile" and am away from my display, if I ever have to restart my computer or boot into Windows 7, my computer will think it's still in clamshell mode. The screen will stay dark, and if the lid is closed, the white light will stay on steadily, not pulsing. However, if I plug into my external display when this is happening, the external display works fine and I have a display again. When I look up my displays while connected to an external display while this is happening, my internal display isn't even listed in the system report; it's like it doesn't exist! And this is especially a problem now as I am away on a 3 week school related trip.
    I have not been able to consistently reproduce this problem. Sometimes it restarts normally, sometimes I restart it and get the gray + apple logo screen that then goes dark, and sometimes the internal display just never turns on. The problem doesn't seem to be related to an OS, as it happens when booting into Windows 7 OR mountain lion 10.8.5. I've tried resetting PRAM mutliple times as well as performing an SMC reset multiple times, and neither has helped. This even happened when I was booting into a mountain lion install USB, as I thought maybe a fresh install would help. I've seen many other forums discussing a similar issue, but none described quite like mine.
    What gives?? How can I get my macbook to restart normally? I really don't want to have to make a repair, even though it's looking like a hardware problem. My computer is one month after Apple Care has expired, and I can't afford a pricey repair as I'm a very in debt student who only has a MacBook because his school gave it to him in the first place. I would be very appreciative for any suggestions and/or help! Thanks!

    Hello thedoctor8706
    Reset your NVRAM and test to see if that resolves your issues. Typically that will resolve video, volume, startup disk selection, and kernel panic issues.

  • Mid 2010 Macbook Pro +1000 Euro repair costs (no external marks)

    Hello together,
    I am looking out for some advise. My mid 2010 Macbook Pro 15inch with an anti glare display just got a new logic board. I paid more than 500 Euro at a Premium Reseller called mStore in Kiel (Germany) to replace it, because the display stayed black after booting. My Macbook didn't even have a single external mark or scratch on the housing. I accepted it and said to myself if it is working again, it is alright. But less than two month later a vertical line is drawing from the top frame to the bottom (see photo). The line is narrow, it is just one pixel, but it is really annoying because it is always in sight. I went to the same reseller and asked what to do, they recommend a second repair attempt for again 500 Euro. In less then two month I cannot afford +1000 Euro for a laptop with an actual value of about 1100 Euro.
    What is the best thing to do now?
    I am really disappointed by Apple's quality. I am 24 years old and everybody in my family is using Apple computers since I can think back. The first time I could call a Mac my own was when I was 13.
    When I graduated from school I was 19 and worked in a hospital to finance a new iBook G4. I had this one for about four years and it has been traveling with me through New Zealand and Asia for more than a year. I never had any issue with it, even when I dropped it from the top bank in a dormitory. It is still alive and working fine.
    When I started studying the time came to buy an Intel Mac (15'' Macbook Pro, anti glare) and again I was very happy with the quality. I have also been a huge advocate for Apple products and was confidently suggesting them to friends and family. But today I feel disappointed by the brand.
    Best
    Marco

    I had the same problem on a display MBP 15" in 2010, and it is a  display problem recognised by Apple.
    It was covered by the warranty.
    If you do nothing, the number of vertical pixel lines will increase over  time.
    Good that Apple helped you out of this problem.

  • How to connect my Mid 2010 Macbook Pro to my HDTV?

    I have a mid 2010 macbook pro with a mini display port. I want to display it on my hdtv. I tried a mini display port to hdmi adapter first but that wouldn't work so then I tried a mini display port to dvi adapter connected to a dvi to hdmi adapter but still no success. Any ideas?

    I have your same model and I'm using a mini display port to hdmi when I want to connect right to a TV.  Is it not detecting, or is it a blank screen etc? What TV are you trying to connect to?

  • I have a mid 2010 Macbook Pro, How can I install Windows 7 without an Optical Drive?

    For clarity:  I have a mid 2010, Macbook Pro.  I recently decided to upgrade to a Crucial SSD drive, double the ram (8 gigs), and remove the optical drive in favor of using my old drive as a back up.  I am also currently running Yosemite.
    I want to install Windows 7 onto my SSD, using bootcamp.  Unfortunately I no longer have an optical drive installed, which makes things difficult as Bootcamp does not even give me the option to create a bootable USB.
    Now, this is where things get kinda fuzzy:
    MId 2010 macbooks use EFI, and are quite capable of booting from USB.  How do I know?  Because I booted from a USB drive in order to do a fresh install of Yosemite on my SSD.
    I have read mutliple forums and threads with claims that folks have had no problems doing this on 2008 Macbook Pros running Snow Leopard.  However, what seemed to be required was some clever .plist modding.  I have used both text wrangler, and x-code to do this, unfortunately upon booting of bootcamp, bootcamp instantly crashes.  Naturally, I can restore bootcamp because I made backups of the .plist file.
    It would seem that modffying the .plist file assumes that the option to create a bootable USB device is grayed out.  In my case, it is non existent.
    I have also read that folks have had success using rEFIt, however rEFIt has been forked to rEFIned, and the developer of rEFIned made mention on his site that Yosemite handles booting differently than previous versions of OSX.
    WIth that, I was hoping that some kind person could explain to me whats going on, what I am missing, and what I can do to make this happen just shy of tearing down my MBP and reisntalling the Optical Drive and dusting off my Win 7 disc.
    Also, my Model Number/Bootrom is MBP 6,2.
    Thanks in advance!

    Thank you for your reply, and the information.  This is what I came up with:
    I added the strings as instructed, however when I went to sign the script in terminal, I was told:
    /Applications/Utilities/Boot Camp Assistant.app: replacing existing signature
    /Applications/Utilities/Boot Camp Assistant.app: code object is not signed at all
    In subcomponent: /Applications/Utilities/Boot Camp Assistant.app/Contents/info.plist
    Also, here are screen captures of the lines that I added.  Mine are the top string entries:
    Thank you for your help, thus far!

  • Mid 2010 MacBook Pro 15in i7 keeps crashing

    This problem has been going on for a long time now where my Mid 2010 MacBook Pro 15in w/ i7 processer keeps crashing at random times.

    What can I do about this? Is there a part I need to replace or should I just sell this and buy a new Mac?

    It's a well documented problem with that model. Your graphics circuit is failing. There was a program in place to replace the motherboard for 3 years from the date of purchase, though some folks have gotten help beyond that time frame.

  • Mid 2010 macbook pro slow to sleep. No print queu issues.

    Hey everyone! My Mid 2010 macbook pro slow is slow to go to sleep. I have read several community forums and I've checked for old print jobs (which seems to be a common issue) and have found none. I've also reset all printers and jobs.  Anyways, it takes 35 to 60 seconds to go sleep (until fan/harddrive turns off/I see blinking white light).  This slow sleep occurs even with a complete fresh install of Mavericks, and even after installing a new SSD. I am honestly at a loss.
    I did the "pmset -g log" command and I have found two reoccurring things that I think might be the reason (though I don't really understand it fully). I commonly see "TimedOut InternalPreventSleep "com.apple.powermanagement.darkwakelinger" 00:00:15" commonly and "PreventUserIdleSystemSleep "Address Book Source Sync" 00:00:30".  I have bolded both of these below:

  • How to get bootcamp to install from USB on Mid 2010 Macbook Pro in Mavericks

    Ok, finally ran into my first problem with Mavericks. It's a doozy. Please if anyone has any advice, let me know.
    My bootcamp partition was acting a little buggy. I also wanted to make the partition larger, so I went ahead and erased it, made a larger partition and was getting ready to install windows 7.
    Unfortunately, little to my knowledge, bootcamp assistant is programmed to not allow installation of Windows via USB if your computer had an optical drive in it's factory delivered form.
    I have removed my optical drive in favor of a second hard drive and encased my original superdrive into an External USB hub.
    There apparently used to be a solution involving editing the plist.info text document to allow USB installation. However, as of MAVERICKS, this document is now locked and unable to be edited.
    I was running windows 7 fine until I scrapped it, and now I have no way to re-install windows short of going through a laborious process of re-installing my optical drive into my laptop, installing, and then re-installing my hard drive back in. The only reason is due to a software bias for my series of laptop because it "used to have" an optical drive.
    Does anyone know of any way that I can bypass this issue to get Windows Re-installed to a bootcamp partition on a mid-2010 macbook pro without using the optical drive?
    Thanks in advance!

    Remove the Boot Camp partition only with Boot Camp Assistant, not with Disk Utility.
    Install or Reinstall OS X from Scratch
    Be sure you backup your files to an external drive or second internal drive because the following procedure will remove everything from the hard 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.
    Erase the hard drive:
      1. Select Disk Utility from the main menu and click on the Continue button.
      2. After DU loads select your startup volume (usually Macintosh HD) from the
          left side list. Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
      3. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Optionally, click on
          the Security button and set the Zero Data option to one-pass. Click on
          the Erase button and wait until the process has completed.
      4. Quit DU and return to the main menu.
    Reinstall OS X: Select Reinstall OS X and click on the Install button.
    Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible
               because it is three times faster than wireless.

  • My 15-inch, Mid 2010 Macbook Pro keeps restarting

    Sorry if this has been asked here before but I've been having lots of trouble with my Macbook Pro lately and I'm not sure what to do. It keeps restarting all the time and I've noticed that it mostly occurs while I'm using the Type Tool in Photoshop. Which is very upsetting because I use that program a lot and I'm not sure what to do about this. The problem started earlier this year and has since gotten significantly worse, especially after upgrading to "Mavericks" OS X 10.9.4".

    Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    Thank you so much for the reply!!! This really means a lot!  I'm not familiar with that software and admittedly, I'm not all that tech savvy.
    If I download this, does this mean I can use Photoshop again (Albeit temporarily)? And will disabling the GPU have any negative effects on my computer?
    And I've also seen that a few other people have had similar problems with their "Mid-2010 Macbook Pro's" - is this because of a faulty hardware problem? And is the solution to have it replaced?
    Sorry for all the questions by the way. Like I said, I'm not all that tech savvy but I really want to fix this and start using my computer like I used to before. Also, I live in the Territories in Canada and have no access to any Apple Stores so I can't really book a Genuis Bar appointment until my next holiday, which, sadly, won't be for quite awhile.
    Again- thank you so much for the reply!!! : )

  • My year old mid 2010 Macbook Pro keeps powering off and leavin this error code.  Any help would be hugely appreciated.

    Hi, as the title reads my year old mid 2010 Macbook pro keeps powering off and leaving the below error message. 
    I'm a university student and desperately need my mac to hit deadlines etc.  If anyone could suggest a solution or shed any light i'd be hugely appreciative.  Thanks SO much.  Joe

    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
    It looks like your NVIDIA graphic is damaged. If you need your computer now, you can fix the computer downloading gfxCardStatus and selecting the option to use only the integrated graphic, so that kernel panic won't appear anymore. Note that you won't be able to use the NVIDIA graphic, so the graphic performance may be worse than with this graphic.
    Of course, that's a temporary fix, because you should take the computer to an Apple Store as soon as possible to get the Mac repaired. As the NVIDIA graphic is not soldered, the repair won't be expensive

  • Mid 2010 MacBook Pro 15" Blacks Out Without Warning

    Quick Summary of Problem: My MacBook Pro is currently shutting down without warning. It would be more accurate to say that the screen goes blank but the machine remains on as can be heard by the fan. Nothing resolves it without powering down and restarting. It has occurred when attached to a power source or via the battery.
    My machine specs: Mid 2010 MacBook Pro 15” with 500GB hard drive, 8GB RAM, Intel HD Graphics/nVidia GeForce GT 330M with 512MB, anti-glare 15” screen with max resolution 1680 x 1050). Running Snow Leopard 10.6.8 with 2013-001 Security Patch installed.
    I have AppleCare which commenced when I first bought the machine in July 2010.
    System Profiler says my battery condition is ‘Normal’. Cycle count: 610.
    Detailed Summary of Problem: Back in January, my MacBook Pro shut down several times without warning. Each time, I was creating selections on high resolution imagery in Adobe Photoshop CS5.
    Not long after, I saw the ‘MacBook Pro SMC Firmware Update 1.7’ relased on Feb 12 (http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1633) and installed it via Software Update. By coincidence or not, my MBP behaved much better afterwards and the seemingly random blank screens requiring a restart disappeared.
    But then I installed the ‘Security Update 2013-001 (Snow Leopard)’(http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1642) via Software Update and that’s the only thing I can really remember changing to my system. Since then, the black-outs have reappeared. As before, I was usually using Photoshop and working with high resolution imagery. However, one time the machine blacked-out, I was simply doing a two-finger scroll on the built-in trackpad whilst in Chrome (Version 25.0.1364.172).
    The blackout has occurred twice now not being connected to power, and twice with it being connected to a wall socket. Needless to say, I lost work in Photoshop (even though I’ve begun to save more regularly) and now it feels like it’s a ticking time bomb and I don’t know when it’s going to go off.
    One thing I’ve found rather odd is that in the crash log, the kernal version doesn’t seem right for Snow Leopard:
    Kernel version:
    Darwin Kernel Version 10.8.0: Tue Jun  7 16:33:36 PDT 2011; root:xnu-1504.15.3~1/RELEASE_I386
    System model name: MacBookPro6,2 (Mac-F22586C8)
    The full crash log can be found at the bottom of this post.
    Fixes I’ve tried:
    1) Resetting the NV-RAM has done nothing. (was suggested
    2) I’ve tried reinstalling the ‘MacBook Pro SMC Firmware Update 1.7’ by downloading the manual installer from Apple, however it now says ‘Alert: This software is not supported on your system’ which in a way makes sense given I’d already applied the firmware update, but a more accurate message along the lines of ‘This firmware update has already been installed’ would be more reassuring.
    3) If all else fails, I could resort to copying over a backup I created with Carbon Copy Cloner, which was done before I reinstalled the 2013-001 Security Update for Snow Leopard. But that’s a bit of a headache too, because my documents I’ve updated since the backup will be out of sync. Another reason this isn’t a great solution is that I can’t take advantage of the 2013-001 security update, nor future ones.
    Any suggestions? There’s probably no good time for something like this to happen, but this is a particularly bad time – I’m currently beginning design and finished art freelancing and brushing up on some applications I haven’t used in years. Nor am I going to make an impression meeting with recruiters without my folio being presented from my MBP.
    I’ve already booked a Genius appointment 2.5 days from now, but all help and ideas greatly appreciated!

    I am sorry. The page that came up has an AD for issues with a 13" MacBook Pro in the corner. I read the AD as if it were part of the article and assumed the whole page referred to the 13" model. My Mistake.
    However, the issue described by TS4088 is not a soldering problem. It is a Latent Defect -- a flaw built into certain batches of those chips from the day they were packaged and installed.
    If your Mac fails the VST test used to detect this Latent Defect, re-flowing the solder is likely to have NO EFFECT on its performance -- the solution is the remove the defective chip and replace with a good one.
    There certainly can be problems in these and other Macs where a re-flow would be beneficial. But I caution Readers not to generalize your solution to Macs that are known to fail VST. Re-flow alone will not solve the Latent Defect problem.

  • Mid 2010 Macbook Pro "Your Computer was restarted because of a problem"

    Hi guys,
    Ever since I upgraded to Mountain Lion my Mid 2010 Macbook Pro has been randomly restarting itself and showing a grey sceen with the text "Your computer was restarted because of a problem."
    I've googled and read all sorts of things saying remove everything from Login Items, it still happens. Everything I've tried has done nothing. Just in case it helps, here is my latest kernel panic log from Console:

    It looks as if you may have the dreaded 'bad GPU' that shipped with some versions of the 2010 model. See - http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4088?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US.
    Use the "Contact" Apple techs link and see if your model may be one affected. If it is, you'll qualify for a free logic board replacement from Apple.
    Good luck,
