  • My IMAC seems to have died after power surge. It shut down and won't start.  What shall I do?

    my IMAC seems to have died after power surge. It shut down and won't start.  What shall I do?

    I would recommend you try an SMC reset at this point:
    Resetting the System Management Controller (SMC)
    Resetting the SMC for Mac Pro, Intel-based iMac, Intel-based Mac mini, or Intel-based Xserve
    Shut down the computer.
    Unplug the computer's power cord.
    Wait fifteen seconds.
    Attach the computer's power cord.
    Wait five seconds, then press the power button to turn on the computer.
    If that fails to solve it, it is probable that the power surge damaged some of your iMac's hardware components, and will need to be repaired at an Apple Authorized Service Center.

  • When unplugged my MBP randomly shuts down and won't start up again

    When my MBP is unplugged it randomly shuts off and won't restart. To get it to boot up again I have to plug it in.
    Today I was using my computer for about 15 minutes unplugged and it just shut down by itself. I was right in the middle of typing something and it just cut out. The other weird thing is I don't get a low battery warning, nothing, it just shuts down.
    Then I press the power button to restart and I get nothing. Even when I pull the battery out and put it back in nothing. I pressed the battery level button and it blinked rapidly on the lowest 2 lights. Keep in mind I was using my computer unplugged for only 15 minutes immediately after unplugging it from the wall after it had been charing for 15+ hours.
    This makes no sense. Please help me.

    Sounds like a bad battery and/or problem with the PMU (power management unit) and/or memory.
    "Half the start up sound" is a bad sign as it means it's failing the normal start up tests (I'd guess a Memory problem)
    Reset the PMU and run the Hardware tests from Install DVD1 (hold down d at startup) and see what it reports.

  • Laptop shut down and won't start up after using a Gecko iPhone cable?

    I plugged in a gecko iphone cable to a usb port on my MacBook Pro and now it won't start up?

    Hello esterke,
    As I understand it you are not able to turn your phone on, and the power button doesn't work so you cannot turn it on that way. You may be able to get it back on by putting it into Recovery Mode, which only requires the USB connection and a working Home button.

    If not your phone may need service:

  • MBP shuts down and won't start up

    I had my MBP for 2 months and it just started to act weird. For no reason, it randomly shuts down with no warning (just like if you would disconnect the battery) and won't even start up again (I had half of the start up sound then nothing). After a couple of more tries, it should startup again but soon things will go bad... Any idea what is going on ?

  • My MacBook Air Just Shut down and won't start!

    Hi Friends, my apple mac book air just shut down while I was working on it. The charger was plugged in. It is a 2009 model. I did the SMC Reset and PRAM Reset. When I press the power button it gives out a beep sound. It did start for a few minutes after the SMC Reset  and it also booted for a few seconds after PRAM Reset. but it again down down. I bought this laptop from a neighbour last year who has left the country where I am, thus, he is not in touch anymore. Please Help me in fixing it. Any help is appreciated. Thanks!

    Try to reset the phone by holding the sleep and home button for about 10sec, until the Apple logo comes back again.
    If this does not work, see if you can connect in recovery mode, explained in this aricle:

    If it still does not work, this is a hardware issue and the phone has to be serviced by Apple or an Authorized Apple Service Provider:

  • My MacBook shut down and won't start up anymore

    My MacBook unexpectedly shut down after I plugged my iPhone in laptop to charge. It happened when it had around 80percent battery but my charger for laptop was still in charging my laptop. I have not spilled any water on the laptop as I keep if in save dry places at all times. I feel pretty let down as I've just came out of they year warranty as I purchased this Christmas 2012. I am hoping someone in here can helps out and show any expert advice from reliable sources

  • IPhone shut down and won't turn back on

    Hello everyone,
    I've been enjoying my iPhone for quite some time and recently used the iPod function and docked the iPhone to my iPod Hi-Fi sound system...suddenly the screen goes all white and the phone shuts down. I tried to turn it back on and it wouldn't budge, i've attached it to the charger for about 4 hours now and still nothing. I've tried the home and power button reset but that didn't do anything...If anyone knows what's going on here, please let me know. Thanks for lookin!

    If you have charged it directly to the USB on your computer, and not on a hub the only thing that I can surmise is that it is down beyond repair.
    You cannot reset since there is no lock.
    I suggest you take it to the nearest Apple Store or AT&T Store, wherever you bought the phone and see where that leads. Of course you can also call AppleCare.

  • Macbook Pro retina shut down and won't start

    Someone help!
    I was using my Macbook Pro Retina that I got in 2012 while I was on a trip in Tokyo, Japan. While uploading pictures from my camera, I left to take a shower and came back to see that my computer was shut off. I thought it went into sleep mode so I kept pressing the keyboard but there was nothing. I did have it plugged into the wall without an adapter. I tried the startup button and nothing. I came back to the States and went to the apple store. They said they don't guaranteed that my data could be recovered. I didn't want to take a chance because I'm too nervous I will lose all my files especially recent ones I haven't backed up yet. They suggested I take it to an authorized apple store to see if they could do a data recovery but before I go, does anyone have any suggestion on what I should do before I spend my money? I don't know if it's because I didn't use an adapter in Japan (100v) but I know it's universal. My iphone was charged every night and had no problem.
    Thanks!!

    btipparat,
    the Apple store which you took your MacBook Pro to isn’t an authorized Apple store? Your MacBook Pro’s AC adapter supports worldwide voltages, 100 V to 240 V, so that isn’t an issue.
    If you press the button next to the battery indicator lights, do they light up? Do they do so whether or not the AC charger is connected?

  • My iPhone 4 shut down and won't turn on again.What should i do?

    My iPhone 4 shut down and won't turn on again. I tried charging it and do it again...When i charge it , it opens the " Connect to iTunes" , when i switch to the computer to connect it , it doesn't work... It starts to the apple screen , and then just shuts down again. I tried holding the home and sleep/wake button at the same time..I tried everything. What should i do?

    Your iPhone is going back and forth between recovery mode and powering on which is really strange.
    Have you tried a hardware reset while its connected to your computer? This will force it back into recovery mode so that you can restore it. If restoring and setting up as new doesn't help, go ahead and take it to an Apple Store for a replacement

    my iphone shut down and will not turn on.  how do i get it to turn on?

    Connect iPhone to Wall Charger for 10 minutes it may turn ON itself. If still OFF, keep on charger and Reset, hold both home and power buttons for about 20 seconds until the iPhone begins to start.
