My MacBook just shuts down! Need some advises...

Hey guys,
how are ya? I have a big time bad issue. Since yesterday my white MacBook (1,83 GHz, 1GB RAM) just shuts down, without any anouncements. When I tried to start it again, it stucks for some secs and then all of a sudden it shuts down again. Today I had some buddies here over. They saw my new Apple Macbook. I thought I show them some Apple style thangs. What happened after I showed them something on the internet??? It shuts down! Just like that! I felt like a piece of shoot. My buddies were laughing! And I thought: Oh no! Not again.
What in gods name is that issue? Am I the only one? What shall I do? I just want a MacBook that works. Why did I switch? It's just like windows...

I've used Macs for almost 20 years, and I've had to use PCs in recent years for work stuff. I thought the MacBook was the answer to my prayers. I sold a perfectly reliable iBook and Dell Inspiron to purchase the MacBook.
Once they get the shutdown issues fixed, I think it'll be worth what I paid for it, but it's definitely frustrating. Don't lose faith in Apple. This kind of thing happens to everyone, but I sure do wish I had put off my MacBook purchase.
I was supposed to have my logic board replaced on Monday, but guess what? The replacement logic board was defective.
Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhrrrrrrrgggghhhhh!
I swear, all I want is a public admission by Apple that they screwed up with some of the first MacBooks. Seriously. Everyone makes mistakes, and electronics can't always be perfect out of the box. I know that. I just the psychological satisfaction that will come with an admission on their part.
It happened with the discoloration. I went into an Apple store with my "PinkBook" in early June, and they said it was obviously my fault. I can't wait to go back there and ask them how many stained MacBooks they've seen.
CrapBook...I mean MacBook (1 gig RAM; 120 gig HD); 20" iMac Core Duo (1 gig RAM; 250 gig HD) Mac OS X (10.4.7)

Macbook Pro shutting down randomly but very frequently

Hi guys,
I am having an issue with my unibody macbook pro. Its the 15" 4gb ram, 2.8GHz Core 2 Duo version.
Basically the macbook just shuts down sometimes...like I'll be doing something and it just TURNS OFF!
I have reset the SMC controller, my batt is fine- I just dont understand what is happening?
As I typed this, it happened, but in a slightly different way...the screen goes grey and you get the typical "you need to restart your computer bu holding the power button" etc
The error I got from just now is:

Please can someone help me so I can sort out this really annoying mess!!!
Many thanks guys

Welcome to Apple Discussions
Did you upgrade the RAM yourself or is this as you bought it ?
The kernel panics seem to be caused by any issue with the CPU's so this might not be user-fixable and you may need to call AppleCare and have this fixed under warranty (if it is stock/Apple RAM)
+panic(cpu 0 caller 0x28d59c): "pmapflushtlbs() timeout: " "cpu(s) failing to respond to ilterrupts, pmap=0x84b6e0 cpustorespond=0x2"@/SourceCabhe/xnu/xnu-1504.7.4/osfmk/i386/pmap.c:3548+
All I can suggest is that you try the following and see if it helps (it can't hurt)
Boot holding down Apple/S and don't let go until you see scrolling text.
When that stops and you see a root#: prompt enter
fsck -fy
Let it run through all the checks and repairs.
If it fails first time, at any time, or finds and fixes a fault - run the command again and keep doing so (some fixes can take several passes) until it says "Appears to be OK" then enter
reboot

My MacBook Pro just shut down without notice. It had about 40% of the battery life. It will not turn back on and I noticed when plugged in the little light on the power cord is blinking orange, not a solid green like normal. Anyone have this issue before

MacBook Pro just shut down without notice. It had about 40% of the battery life. It will not turn back on and I noticed when plugged in the little light on the power cord is blinking orange, not a solid green like normal. Anyone have this issue before? I've only had this for about 3mos. I called apple support. They tried one thing then said I have to take to the apple store. Unfortunately I don't have one nearby. So before I travel an hour+ away I thought is give it a shot on here. Thank.

Hi S,
Did they have you try an SMC Reset: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3964?

Apple has a problem and the cant solve it. I had some very important call but this new iphone just shut down on me and wont turn on i tried everything u can find in apple support nothing works for me. Anyone know what i can do?

I would instead say you have a problem since nearly all IPs work as advertised. IF you do have a bad phone, take it into an Apple store and get a replacement. Hope you didn't jailbreak your phone though as Apple probably will tell you, you broke it, you fix it.

What do I do when my macbook pro just shuts down and when I plug my charger in, it faintly blinks green and yellow and doesnt charge?

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:
Intel-based Macs: Resetting the System Management Controller (SMC)

Thanks for coming to the Apple Support Communities!

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 you can't update or restore your iOS device
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:

MacBook randomly shuts down while watching streaming video

I've been having a problem lately with my MacBook randomly shutting down. I initially thought it was due to overheating which was logical considering I was using my MacBook in bed and the computer was very hot when it would shut off, but I've recently started using a TV-Table top for it to sit on when I'm using it in bed. My MacBook continues to shut down and the computer isn't nearly as hot as it was prior to using the TV-Table top, it is just warm. It's definitely not a battery issue because this happens when I'm using the power source as well. *I think I've noticed that this only happens when I'm in Firefox watching online streaming video on sites such as YouTube.* I never use Safari so I'm not sure if the problem would occur in Safari or not. I tried installing the MacBook SMC Firmware Update v1.1 but it said my computer didn't need it.

I have the same problem, every once in a not-so-blue moon my macbook pro shuts down while streaming video. It only happens when streaming video. Just watched some of the new south park episode, and it shut down on me! It really ticks me off!!!!!

MacBook Retina shuts down after a few seconds after every boot

Hi there
My retina macbook keeps shutting down after booting and rebooting by its own a minute later. No error message is displayed or anything like it, it just magically shuts down.
It had been working fine until now but it seems to be going crazy for whatever reason...
When it shuts down by itself, I can't turn it on myself. It does it on its own even if the lid is closed and then shuts down again after about 30 seconds.
This only happens when it's connected to a power source (it doesn't even start when it's not).
I have tried to reset the PRAM without success.
The only time the issue doesn't happen is when I do a Safe Boot.
Can anybody tell me what is up with my Macbook (I really need it for work AND school).
Thanks

Have you done a SMC reset?

Late 2008 Macbook Pro shutting down at 94% while running on the battery

So I called Apple about this issue last week, since I tried calibrating my battery to improve it's health. And when my battery life got down to 94% or lower... my laptop just shut down. For no reason. When I called Apple, the guy I talked to before said it sounded like my battery was defective. He hooked me up to a tech guy, and when I told him what was up, he said that all the numbers on my battery sounded normal, and that he thinks that my logic board is failing. I'm not entirely sure what is up. These are the numbers I am getting now, one from iStat Pro, and the other from System Profiler:

I had my laptop plugged in all day, but I unplugged it for like, 2 seconds because the LED light on my 85w Magsafe Adaptor was out again... just from bumping it. It was at 82% battery health yesterday, and was fully charged. The battery, as well as the adaptor and laptop are a little over 2 years old. My battery health has been declining since January... it was at 86% health at the end of January, near the beginning of February... then a few weeks into February, it went down to 84%, then 81%... up to 82%, and now down to 79% health. What on earth is going on? Do I need to get a new battery along with a logic board replacement?

Software update to 10.6.8 fully?
Reinstall 10.6 only then Software update fully?
You can do that by backing up data off the machine and disconnecting, then c boot off the 10.6 disk, just reinstall OS X over the more recent copy, then reboot holding shift key down (precaution) then Software update fully to 10.6.8.
then you'll have to check all third party software to make sure it's running, some install kext (kernel extension) files into OS X which get booted out by the overwrite install method, so install those again from fresh sources.
If that doesnt' fix your issue then it's a firmware or hardware issue..
run a hardware test

For the "D" you need a internet connection previously (don't move if on wifi) and hold that D down for quite some time.

Macbook not shutting down

It seems that whenever I try to shut down my macbook there’s always a program that doesn’t quit and stops the computer from shutting down. Right now safari is keeping my mac from shutting down, and force quit does not seem to help. The menu bar and icons on the desktop disappear but dock stays there and then i get an error message. Any fixes??
Thanks all
edit:
Safari is quitting now. however now it is the finder that is preventing my macbook from shutting down. The icons and menu bar still disappear and the blue status light under the finder icon disappears but the macbook just sits there until the error message pops up saying that the finder could not quit. Relaunching the finder in force quit doesn’t seem to be working either.

Exactly the same thing happened to me! I tried to shut down and it just did nothing. Tried to shut down again, and got the message that shutdown had timed out because Safari was still running, and it suggested I shut down Safari first. I had just shut it down using the "x" in the upper left, but I figured sometimes that doesn't work. But the taskbar didn't indicate that Safari was on, so I tried the force quit menu selection, and it didn't list Safari.
Tried to shut down again and this time all the desktop icons and Finder went away, but the background pattern was still there. So I launched Finder again from the taskbar, and the fan started whirring like crazy. Went through this procedure a couple of times, and finally just shut it off with the shutdown switch.
I just had the topcase replaced because the keyboard had shorted out for some reason, and that apparently shorted the shutdown/start button so that the system would just shutdown for no reason. Now I've got the opposite problem! I'm hoping this time it's just a software issue.
By the way, due to the MacBook problems I bought a Windows system and am responding to this thread on that new computer. I really like Leopard most of the time, but am getting a little sick of this sort of thing.

My 15" Macbook Pro, shuts down by it self (Random occurrence).

My 15" Macbook Pro, shuts down (randomly) by it self, some times it will not turn on, and some other times (very rarely) the fans go on “very loudly” the second I turn it on. But the computer, does not turn on at all, even with the battery fully charged and the fans runing full blast.
Some other times, it will not wake up. It will only turn on or wake up if connected to the power adapter, even if the battery is fully charged.
I have already reset (a couple times) de firmware, the smc and he pmu and the problem persists.
Al this goes on randomly and unpredictably. Some times it works just fine for 4 or 5 days and the suddenly something happens.
I also think that some times the computer runs extremely hot.
PLEASE HELP!!!!!!

15' MacBook Pro Mac OS X (10.4.8)

I have the same thing happening with a new macbook I bought my wife and I called apple today and after going back and forth between apple care and apple customer service they are shipping me out a new replacement macbook as it is less than 30 days since I bought it. I am waiting for their email with the Fed ex info so I can send this one back and then they will send out the new one.
If it is still in warranty I suggest you call Apple customer service and let them know how bad it is and insist on a new one!
This one also reboots at the slightest movement and it took me several tries to finally log in on it tonight to delete all the user accounts before I send it back!
Hopefully the replacement one is glitch free!

Won't Boot Up - Just Shuts Down

Hi all, I need some help.
I'm trying to build a new computer. I'm running the following:
MSI865 Neo2
Intel P4 3.0ghz
2x512mb Kingston DDR400 Ram
ATI Radeon 9800 Pro
Antec Tru430w PS
Maxtor 80gb SATA HD
Whenever i turn on the machine 5-15 seconds later it just turns off. Sometimes I get as far as seeing a message saying "BIOS Not Installed" then something about the Floppy Drive then it shuts off. If I try it again without waiting 5 minutes or so, the monitor doesn't even have time to turn on before it again, just shuts off.
I've checked all connections, tried reseating ram/video card/etc, and with only the video card and ram connected. I've also tried clearing the CMOS using the jumper the way the manual said to.
Please help, and thanks in advance for your replies.
P.S. On SATA HD's....do you need to plug in power to both sata & the standard 4pin? Also is there a special combination to use since with the 9800 pro needs a connection from the power supply to the card to the Hard Drive?

It always just shuts down after it tells me "BIOS Not Installed"
This implies you have the FIS2R board. This is the message from the Promise controller indicating it is not going to install it's bios since it didn't find a drive. Once you can get into the bios you can disable the Promise controller and get rid of the message.

No. This must be one of the SATA drives that has both connectors to ease transition.
Two beeps is either a memory error or a post failure. Try booting with only one stick of memory installed. If that doesn't work try the other stick. If that doesn't work try one stick in a different slot.
