Hello Toby135
Reset the SMC or System Management Controller to resolve issues with the power on your MacBook Pro and power adapter.

A four year battery could be dead. I'd contact an Apple Service Center.

When I plugged in my portable charger to my MacBook Pro, it shut off and now I can't turn it back on. What do I do?

I was launching my sims game when I plugged in my portable charger in my MacBook Pro. As soon as I plugged it in, I heard a tiny poof and next thing I know the screen turned black. I held down the power button like I normally would and it wouldn't work. when I plug in the charger, there is a faint green light. Please help anybody. Thank you for your time.

Something broke I'm afraid. Take it (and the charger) to an Apple Store, leave it unplugged.

Why did my iPhone 4S just shut off and now it won't turn back on?

Okay, so last night I was using my phone and the battery got to about 8% last time I checked. Then I put it in my pocket and a little while later I tried to turn it on with the home button (because my lock button has somehow gotten jammed into the phone) but nothing happened. It didn't even show the charge battery sign or anything. So I plugged it up, and still nothing has worked. Today, it is still messed up and won't turn on and it's really frustrating me. My mom told me that I don't have insurance on my phone and it has been jailbroken before. Is there anything I can do for it? My 2 year contract with Verizon is up on August 12th. Can I just take it to them and have them look at it and replace it for free?

Hello there, Golf103.
For the issue of not powering on, the following Knowledge Base article has a few good pointers to try:
iPhone: Hardware troubleshooting
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts2802
Specifically:
Will not turn on, will not turn on unless connected to power, or unexpected power off
Verify that the Sleep/Wake button functions. If it does not function, inspect it for signs of damage. If the button is damaged or is not functioning when pressed, seek service.
Check if a Liquid Contact Indicator (LCI) is activated or there are signs of corrosion. Learn about LCIsand corrosion.
Connect the iPhone to the iPhone's USB power adapter and let it charge for at least ten minutes.
After at least 15 minutes, if:
The home screen appears: The iPhone should be working. Update to the latest version of iOS if necessary. Continue charging it until it is completely charged and you see this battery icon in the upper-right corner of the screen . Then unplug the phone from power. If it immediately turns off, seek service.
The low-battery image appears, even after the phone has charged for at least 20 minutes: See "iPhone displays the low-battery image and is unresponsive" symptom in this article.
Something other than the Home screen or Low Battery image appears, continue with this article for further troubleshooting steps.
If the iPhone did not turn on, reset it while connected to the iPhone USB power adapter.
If the display turns on, go to step 4.
If the display remains black, go to next step.
Connect the iPhone to a computer and open iTunes. If iTunes recognizes the iPhone and indicates that it is in recovery mode, attempt to restore the iPhone. If the iPhone doesn't appear in iTunes or if you have difficulties in restoring the iPhone, see this article for further assistance.
If restoring the iPhone resolved the issue, go to step 4. If restoring the iPhone did not solve the issue, seek service.
Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.

Hi aaliyafrommarkham,
In order to troubleshoot this, I would recommend that you start with an SMC reset. Information on this procedure can be found here:

It could have powered off. Try holding the sleep button down for a few seconds until the apple logo appears to restart it

Try this.
Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.

I was working on my iPad 1 and it turned off and now it won't turn back on. It was 50% charged and even when I connect it to be charged it still won't turn on. Is there a reset button?

I was working on my iPad and it turned off suddenly and now it won't turn back on. It was at least 50% charged and when I tried to connect the charger it still will not come on. Is there a reset button?

Thank you so much! It worked, I was reading around and saw this has happened to a number of iPad users. Thank you for your prompt response, I was so worried I broke it or something.

If wjosten's tip doesn't work try plugging it into a USB charger (not through your computer), wait about 30 seconds and it should come on. If it doesn't remove the cord from the phone and keep trying this. I've had this same issue and found a combination of the reset & charging cable tends to work. Sometimes it takes about 5 minutes for the phone to respond.
Best of luck.

I turned my iPhone3G off and now it won't turn back on. Can anyone suggest what I should do?

plug it in
in a charger or a computer system
if it does show the charging - let it stay there and have it nominally charged - the battery may be failing.
if it does not show anything on screen - try resetting the device (top power button + home button for approx 10 -12 seconds) or check the cables.
