My charger's light won't turn on and it won't charge the MacBook

Hi guys, I have a MacBook that is around 2 years old and last night when I was going to plug in the charger, I didn't see the light turning on I have had this problem before but after 10-60 minutes it went back to normal, now I'm stuck with my unchargebable Mac and an iPad, I really need my Mac for next week and I live in Sk Canada and I believe there is no apple store in this province so I might have to send my Mac to Calgary and I don't know what to do, please someone help me!!

I have checked that before but I don't find it usefull, like I have done all of those things before, like cleaning the pins ect I just want my MacBook to turn on so I can send my stuff to another person and go to their house untill I find a way to solve this problem

FORCE IPAD INTO RECOVERY MODE
1. Turn off iPad
2. Turn on computer and launch iTunes (make sure you have the latest version of iTune)
3. Plug USB cable into computer's USB port
4. Hold Home button down and plug the other end of cable into docking port.
DO NOT RELEASE BUTTON until you see picture of iTunes and plug
5. Release Home button.
ON COMPUTER
6. iTunes has detected iPad in recovery mode. You must restore this iPad before it can be used with iTunes.
7. Select "Restore iPad"...
Note:
1. Data will be lost if you do not have backup
2. You must follow step 1 to step 4 VERY CLOSELY.

Brand New ipod Touch wont turn on and isnt recognized by windows or macbook

I just got my ipod touch and macbook today. When i press the button on top of the ipod, it wont do anything. Also, when i plug the ipod into my macbook and my other PC, they both dont recognize it. Nothing has come up on the ipod's screen. Should i take it to the apple store in my area? Thank you all!

Hi--
Welcome to the Apple Discussions. Sorry to hear about your iPod. If you're close to an Apple store, then I'd definitely take it in and have them look at it, especially if it won't turn on when it's plugged into the MacBook or the PC. Even if the battery was drained out (unlikely on a brand new iPod), it should start up when it's getting power from the USB bus.
It's probably best to check out this list of Apple Stores:
http://www.apple.com/retail/storelist/
Pick the one closest to you, then make a reservation at the Genius Bar. It's been a while since I had to do that, but I think I had to wait until after midnight, or maybe until around 6 AM the day I wanted to go in.

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
-When it says place the iPod in recovery mode use this program instead of the buttons.
RecBoot: Easy Way to Put iPhone into Recovery Mode
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iPod fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- If still not successful that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

Iv tryed this numerious times still keeps going back to pasword. Can not get any further. Tried restart holding shift key.. still nothing. What do i do?

Thank you for your help.
I couldnt get to the hard drive/ desktop. Soft login not even working. So i could not do any of that.
In the end i took it to Apple and its actually the hard drive on its way out. A common issue with that series of Mac. Funny seeing i dont use this mac much. However being 2.5 years old and out of warrently, Apple have recognise this issue with this series/ Model and installing a new hard drive at no cost.
Very luck and greatful. And not feeling so dumb that it was something i did or could troubleshoot myself.
Hope this helps others that it just might be your hard drive failing.

Does the iOS device connect to other networks? If yes that tend to indicate a problem with your network.
Does the iOS device see the network?
Any error messages?
Do other devices now connect?
Did the iOS device connect before?
Try the following to rule out a software problem:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Power off and then back on your router
.- Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings
- iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
- Wi-Fi: Unable to connect to an 802.11n Wi-Fi network
- iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If still problem and it does not connect to any networks make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

How many hours should stop charging the macbook pro retina first before using it?

There is no requirement to charge for any predetermined amount of time. You can charge at any time, for any amount of time.

(Mountain Lion) suddenly the screen turns black, and I have to use the switch to turn it on. And, the screen turns to zoom, and the only way to turn to normal is to close the window and start all over again?

Does the screen go black while you are using the machine? ...or after it has sat idle for a bit?
If it happens while you're using the machine, check to see if a hot corner has been set for sleep. You can do that here: System Preferences > Desktop & Screen Saver > Screen Saver and click the button labelled "Hot Corners..." in the lower right.
If it happens after a bit of idle time, that's normal sleep behavior. The delay can be adjusyed here: System Preferences > Energy Saver.
In either case, pressing any key on the keyboard should bring it out of sleep.
Re zooming -
If this happens while in Safari, and you are using an Apple Magic Mouse, a default setting applicable to it is that a soft double-tap on the mouse will zoom the Safari window. A second double-tap will bring it back.
If it is the entire screen that is zooming, Control plus scroll gesture on the mouse will zoom the whole screen. Repeat with the opposite scroll gesture to bring it back.

Hello to you Wildone007!
Let's get this earpiece away from the looney bin! SuzyQ asked some phenomenal questions (thank you!) Waht type of earpiece are you using and what phone model do you have?
We can figure this out together!

Charging the MacBook

Is there a way to charge the MacBook?
Do I have to give it a fulfilling charge in the beginning or can I just use it immediately after purchasing if the battery is partially charged?
Do I need to de-charge the battery every once in a while and full charge it back again?

Read the user manual that comes with the computer.
