My macbook pro wont do anything and it is just blowing air out the back

my macbook pro wont do anything it is using its fan rapidly

Try Reseting the PRAM, It should fix the Problem.
Shut down the computer.
Plug in the MagSafe power adapter to a power source, connecting it to the Mac if its not already connected.
On the built-in keyboard, press the (left side) Shift-Control-Option keys and the power button at the same time.
Release all the keys and the power button at the same time.
Press the power button to turn on the computer. 
    Note: The LED on the MagSafe power adapter may change states or temporarily turn off when you reset the SMC.

    StephBeard,
    if you still have your MacBook Pro’s original box, it can be found on one of the stickers on the box. If you don’t still have its box, it can be determined from your MacBook Pro’s serial number. If its serial number has eleven characters, write down the last three characters; if it has twelve characters, write down the last four. If you don’t have its box, please include in your reply those last three or four characters of its serial number.

  • Macbook pro wont start up and clicking sound

    Hi everyone
    My girlfriend spilled a coke on my computer couple days ago and my MBP shut down immediately. After all i took it to the apple store in Turkey and they said the problem is from the battery and they took it off and I started to use it on charge until i get a new battery. All day i used my macbook pro on charge without battery on it. Anyway I turned my computer off and next day press the power button to start it up and it didnt start up at all. Mag safe works OK. Charger light is green light and everytime i press the power button I hear a clicking sound and my built in cam light is lighting up. I couldnt figure it out what is wrong.. If you guys had any problem like this before or know the problem about it please share it with me.. I will be appreciated.. Thanks

    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
    Your Mac can't find any bootable partition.
    1. Insert the Mac OS X DVD that came with the Mac and press C key while your Mac is starting.
    2. Select Utilities > Disk Utility, choose Macintosh HD in the sidebar and repair the disk. If it doesn't work, take the Mac to an Apple Store.
    Also, open  > Startup Disk, select Macintosh HD and restart. Maybe your Mac has forgotten the startup partition

  • My MacBook Pro wont turn on and is plugged into the charger

    My MacBook was frozen for a second and after I closed the computer and reopened it, it looks as if it is off and won't turn back on. Nothing is lighting up. Please help!

    If you are able, try resetting the SMC. If that does not work, take it in for diagnosis.

  • My MacBook Pro battery is empty and won't charge, but charger is fine

    My MacBook Pro battery is empty and won't charge. I did the PRAM reset when there was still some power left in the battery. The charger indicator light doesn't come on when I connect it to MacBook Pro, BUT it works just fine with my old white Mac book. This happened a few times before, and unplugging and plugging the adapter into the MacBook pro helped. Now nothing happens no matter how many times I reset the charger. Is there anything else I can do?

    More than likely you need a new battery.

  • I left a dvd in my macbook pro for a while and now my computer wont recognize that there is even a disk in there, nor will it eject it. how do i get the dvd out?

    i left a dvd in my macbook pro for a while and now my computer wont recognize that there is even a disk in there, nor will it eject it. how do i get the dvd out?

    Hold down the mouse button or trackpad clicker as you start up.
    If no joy, restart and hold the Option key. This brings up the Startup Manager, which will draw an Icon for each bootable Volume. When all are drawn, the Eject key is "live".
