My lappy-po wont turn on!
Laptops battery is fully charged.
Laptop is plugged into the wall via power cord.
I let the laptop sit on the charger for a few more hours just to make sure.
There has been absolutley no physical damage done to my computer.
I tried to hold down the power button until it beeps and the sleep light blinks, but no beep and no computer turn on.
I have noticed the sleep light still does the fast few blinks after holding down the button, but instead of the follwing beep I see the light blinks 3 times slow 3 times fast then 3 times slow again.
Could this be because I didnt do the EFI firmware update?(wasnt able to because internet connection is slower than Zune player sales, and I dont have time to visit a place with highspeed).
I had what sounds like this exact same problem about a week after I bought my MacBook. I stopped by the Apple shop and they reseated the RAM and I never had the problem again. Try this yourself. Firmly push on each RAM module and then try a restart.
Of course this may not solve the problem but if it does, great!

Try resetting the PMU - Resetting MacBook and MacBook Pro System Management Controller (SMC). If you have no success then you'll need to take it in for service or replace the AC adaptor if it's gone bad.

As far as trying to power up your device, make sure it has a good charge and then hold the button on the top of the phone and the home button on the faceplate together until the apple appears on the screen.

Try to backup and restore you device in itunes...restoring the device is like removing the iOS software off the device and re-add in a newer software, after you have restore you device, MAKE SURE YOU SET UP YOUR DEVICE LIKE A NEW DEVICE, DONT NOT RESTORE FROM BACKUP!!... give the device a chance to use the newer software and see if the issue still persisting, if the issue still on going then its would be a hardware issue.
Call Apple Care and see if your device is still under warranty to get it replace -

my iphone 6 wont turn on after i updated it and it doesn't work to restore it in itunes. what should i do?
Hello ole-gunnar,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
If your iPhone is unresponsive after updating your iOS version, then I'd like you to please follow the troubleshooting below.
If you see a black screen
You might need to charge your device before it can turn on. Plug in your device and let it charge for at least 10 minutes (20 minutes for iPad), then try turning it on.
You should see a battery icon while your device is charging. If you continue to see a black screen, reset your device. If your device doesn't respond when you press buttons
Your device might not return to the Home screen when you press the Home button, wake from sleep when you press the Sleep/Wake button, slide to unlock or power off, or it might appear frozen. Try these steps:
Restart your device.
If it still doesn't respond, or if it doesn't turn back on, reset your device.
If your device gets stuck during startup
When starting up, you might see the Apple logo or a red or blue screen for a long time, or your device might restart again. Try these steps:
Make sure that you have iTunes 12 or later on your computer.
Put your device in recovery mode.
When you get the option to restore or update, select Update. This will reinstall iOS without erasing your data.

If you still need help after trying the steps above, contact Apple Support.

My ipod touch comes up with an error 43 and wont turn on
My ipod touch wont turn on and when plugged in to the computer it comes up with an error saying device is not recognized code 43 does anyone know how to fix this
Your iPod is probably in DFU mode, try holding home and power for 10 seconds then try to turn on normally.

- 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. The appointment is free. No warranty required
