My 2009 13 MacBook will not turn on or start up, the power cord won't show up green anymore either

My 2009 13 inch MacBook won't turn on or start up, and the power cord doesn't turn green anymore. When it first wouldn't turn on the power cord still turned green. Please help!!

    Try:                           
    - 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.

  • 2009 Macbook will not connect to internet, or drops the connection the quickly.

    My 2009 Macbook has suddenly decided that it either cannot make a connection to anything, or when it finally does connect, it almost immediately drops the connection.  This is irregardless of which web browser I'm using, as it does it for all different browsers.  Other devices are connecting wirelessly just fine.
    Thank you for your help.

    I have fixed it, had to format and re-install, annoying, but at least it works now.

  • Will not turn on unless plugged in to power cord

    So I have had my Macbook Pro for about 9 months now. Just today, I unplugged my laptop and it immediately turned off. I tried turning it on; I could hear the optical drive spinning up for a moment, and then the computer would suddenly turn off again.
    The battery appears to be fine (I checked the charge indicator on the bottom, and it is fully charged), and my power cord seems to be ok as well.
    Any help?

    My MacBook Pro is just 4 months old and suddenly it would not operate without power adapter attached. Reset PMU and PRAM to no avail. Repaired permissions and did an fsck in single user mode, again to no avail. Even tried booting in 10.4.10 on external drive which was fine, except laptop would still not work with out being plugged in.
    Called Apple. They asked if I had a colleague with a 15" MacBook Pro from whom I might "borrow" their battery from. Luckily, I did! I replaced my battery with hers and bingo! Laptop worked without using power adapter.
    Apple is sending new replacement battery.
    Another co-worker had the same thing happen to his MacBook Pro this afternoon and his laptop and mine were purchased in the same week.
    Wonder if there is another batch of defective batteries springing up.

  • My MacBook will not turn on unless it's connected to a charger. However, when it's on and charging, it says that it has 0% battery life despite the green light on the charger. How can I fix this?

    Your battery has reached the end of its life. If you have a MacBook with the removable battery you can get a new third party battery fairly cheap on eBay.

  • MacBook will not turn on. I get Apple fiqure and then the wheel just spins. What can I do

    MacBook will not turn completely on. I get Apple fiqure and then the wheel just spins.

    Reinstall OS X. Either use your installer DVD or do a network restore if you are using Lion or Mountain Lion.

  • My macbook will not turn on. Related to using wrong charger?

    I used my macbook charger to charge a mac book pro and now my macbook will not turn on. The green light shows on the charger but it will not turn on. I am not sure it is related but what should I do?

    Using one charger on another mac won't harm anything.

  • The fan on my macbook will not turn off

    Please help.  the fan on my macbook will not turn off.  Also, my battery is no longer showing a percentage.
    Thanks

    Hmmm.  You have done the basics.  If you open the ActivityMonitor app in the Utliities folder,  select CPU usuage in the column-  flip it so highest % is on top.  Is ther an app in that column that is spiked?  Quit that app.
    You can run the Apple Hardware Test by booting holding the D key on restart,  this may generate an error code. Not the most complete test but it is a start.
    If no AHT- Boot off your Install Disk while holding down the d key, (not c key), then run the extended Apple Hardware Test. Some disks require you to use the Option key at bootup to select AHT. Some models have a separate AHT CD.

  • My macbook just shut off and will not turn back on, connected to the charger. Help!

    My macbook just shut iff and will not turn back on, connected to the charger. HELP!

    Hi there,... what color is the charge indicator on the charger connector? orange or green.
    Did you let your Air die from power?  Or has it been stored away for a while on a very low charge?
    What happens when you try to power on? nothing?
    If you cannot get to recovery mode and cannot power on at all, then its time for a service call to Apple for in shop full diagnosis and possible repair.

  • My iphone will not turn on after I replaced the battery

    My iphone will not turn on after I replaced the battery, itunes logo comes up, but it will not connect and does not reset! does anyone know what I can do?

    Who replaced the battery, you, Apple or an Authorized Apple Service Provider? If you did it yourself, then you could have done anything to disable it. It also voids any warranty and post-warranty support from Apple and the forum. You are on your own. If Apple or an Authorized Apple Service Provider replaced it, then take it back and have them check it.
    The iPhone does not have a user replaceable battery, or user serviceable parts. It is meant to only be serviced by Apple, or authorized service providers.
