My Macbook wouldn't start up even though it has power...What can I do?

My Macbook wouldn't start up even though it has power...What can I do?  The power light stays on and won't go off.

I have the exact same problem and waited it out and got to my homescreen.  Whateve the problem is fried my bluetooth and my trackpad.  I tried starting it again and couldn't even get to homescreen, it stayed on the bluescreen with the wheel of death.  So, I took it to genius bar today. I was informed that my logic board is fried and it needs to be replaced.   $300 repair that I'm looking at...

    From your description it sounds like your Hotmail account was compromised. Does anyone else know the password and could they have changed it?

  • Hello, i have recently purchased an ipod touch. i have bought apps off itunes and whenever i connect my ipod to my computer it syas that it is syncing.but the appa will not show on my ipo even though it has synced.how can i resolve this?

    hello, i have recently purchased an ipod touch.i  am having trouble with apps. i have bought apps off itunes but it wont appear on my ipod. i have synced the ipod with the computer multiple times but still no luck. i think it has something to do with my settings but i am not sure.please any helpwill be very much appreciated.thank you

    First, try a system reset.  It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
    Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until the screen blacks out or you see the Apple logo.  Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears.  You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
    If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore.  Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset.  Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync.  From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab.  Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup.  You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod.  Again, say "yes."
    At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod.  As before, say "yes."  Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time.  If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device.  Corrective action is simple -  choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
    If you're unable to do the Restore, go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here.

  • I've just rented a movie on iTunes, and I tried to start it before the download finished, and now even though it has finished when I try to play it nothing happens. Is there a way to reload it without paying again??

    I've just rented a movie on iTunes, and I tried to start it before the download finished, and now even though it has finished when I try to play it nothing happens. Is there a way to reload it without paying again??

    I'm not convinced that starting it before it was downloaded has anything to do with it, you should be able to do that. I'd try restarting the computer and if that doesn't help, select the content which is causing a problem and use the 'Report a problem' button in Your Purchase History.

  • RENAME:  When I rename a photo why can I not find it doing a search?  The photo obviously keeps its old name even though it has a new one   IPhoto 09

    When I rename a photo why can I not find it doing a search?  The photo obviously keeps its old name even though it has a new one>  IPhoto 09

    Thanks, that makes sense.  If I do a search in IPhoto I find it.  I have 6 grand children and also have had my camera for quite awhile and it starts file names over again after 10,000 pictures. (I don't have all these on the computer) but now I have some files with the same name  ie  img_4   and img_4
    Thanks again for your help!!

  • My MacBook Pro will not powerup (even when connected to power supply).

    My MacBook Pro will not powerup (even when connected to power supply). The caps lock key is the only light on.

    Hi PatB11902,
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    If your MacBook Pro does not seem to power on, but the caps lock key will light up when you press the caps lock key, you are likely seeing a video issue.
    There are several steps that can help troubleshoot this behavior, found at this link:
    Apple computers: Troubleshooting issues with video on internal or external displays - Apple Support
    Start with these steps:
    Reset the system
    You can reset the Mac's parameter RAM and SMC.
    Start up in Safe Mode.
    If your Mac does not start up normally after these steps, here are some additional tips that can help:
    Troubleshooting: My computer won't turn on - Apple Support
    Verify you have a good connection from your Mac to the wall outlet by confirming the power cord and adapter if present are securely connected and plugged in. To check if the wall outlet is working, plug in a lamp or other electrical device.
    If the wall outlet is working and you continue to have no power try another power cord or adapter if available. If it works you may need a replacement cord or adapter.
    Disconnect all accessories that are plugged in to the computer, such as a printer, hub, or other mobile device.
    If your Mac supports user-installable memory, solid state drive, or hard drive, and you recently installed any of these, make sure they are installed correctly and are compatible with your computer. If possible, reinstall the original memory or drive into the computer to find out if the behavior persists afterwards.
    If you are still unable to start up your computer after trying each of these steps, visit an Apple Store or Apple Authorized Service Provider (AASP) for further diagnosis. If you plan to visit an Apple Retail Store, make a reservation at the Genius Bar using http://www.apple.com/retail/geniusbar/ (available in some countries only).
    Note: Diagnostic fees may apply for issues not covered under warranty or the AppleCare Protection Plan (APP).
    Sincerely,
    Jeremy

  • A pop up appeared and it doesn't disappeared even though I press the "ok" of the pop up and it doesn't let me do anything else. I can't even turn it off. What can I do?

    A pop up appeared and it doesn't disappeared even though I press the "ok" of the pop up and it doesn't let me do anything else. I can't even turn it off. What can I do?

    This isn't the solution, but I would just let it run out of battery.
    It would turn off on its own then just start charging it again
    Hope this helped

  • HT204074 I have our music collection on iTunes Match for my PC, ipad and iphone.  Can I share that music collection with my wife so she can play that with her iphone?  Even though she has a different Apple ID from me?

    I have our music collection on iTunes Match for my PC, ipad and iphone. 
    Can I share that music collection with my wife so she can play that with her iphone?  Even though she has a different Apple ID from me?

    Her iPhone will need to be set up to iTunes Match using your Apple ID to be able to share music via iTunes Match. Otherwise you'll have to download the music to your computer and then copy those tracks into her iTunes library, assuming hers is separate.

  • A barcode scanner that was connected directly to the Mac's USB port stopped working as the "USB had too much power drawn", even though it has worked for over a year in that port.  WHen we plugged it into the port on the keyboard, the device works. Why?

    A barcode scanner that was connected directly to the Mac's USB port stopped working as the "USB had too much power drawn", even though it has worked for over a year in that port.  When we plugged it into the port on the keyboard, the device works. Why?  Obviously the device is operational.  Could the USB port have burned out from having too much power drawn?  If so, is it reparable?

    It can't draw "too much" power, it can only draw as much as the USB port is able to provide and no more. IIRC, the keyboard port has a lower power output than the iMac's port.
    That being said, yea, it's possible that the port has failed and it can be replaced or if another port works you can use that one. Although if it is still under warranty or covered by Apple Care, then I would take it to an Apple Store or service provider to get the port repaired.

  • How to delete parent table data even though it has child records

    hi all,
    How to delete parent table data even though it has child records.
    ex: delete from pa_request cascade constraints;
    But this command is not working .
    Regards,

    ex: delete from pa_request cascade constraints;cascade constraints is DROP table option. It can't be used with DELETE. You need to delete child rows first or drop foreign keys and recreate them with ON DELETE CASCADE. Then:
    delete from pa_request will automatically delete child rows. However, personally I don't like ON DELETE CASCADE. You can, by mistake, delete half of your database without even realizing it.

  • HT201263 itunes will not recognise my encryption password even though it has been reset. cant restore to last backup?

    itunes will not recognise my encryption password even though it has been reset. cant restore to last backup?

    I'm not aware of a way to reset the password for an encrypted backup. If you have forgotten the password for an encrypted backup, your only alternative is to put the phone in recovery mode and restore it as a new device. Your data will be lost.

  • Format address panel in iCal to show Department from the address book. At the moment it is showing 'Job Title' even though that has been removed in Address Book.

    Can anybody help please How do I Format address panel in iCal to show Department from the address book. At the moment it is showing 'Job Title' even though that has been removed in Address Book.

    I have a similar problem. I actually spoke with a Paypal customer Representative a few months back who informed me that they had deleted all of my previous *Hidden* Address but when I just purchased an item today on a online merchant's site that I had never been to before and checked out using their Paypal option, I noticed that my default shipping address was in fact my old address and when I went to change the address to my current address, I noticed all of the old addresses I ever used were still there. I've just spoken with 2 separate paypal representatives who confirmed on their end that all of the old address have been deleted and the only one they have on file is my current address. Can anyone provide me an explanation as to why the old hidden address can still be showing up when I check out on merchant's sites using paypal even after they've seemingly been deleted? The last Representative suggested clearing out my browser's cache, but I don't believe that will resolve my issue. Thank you in advance.

  • My iphone keeps switiching off even though it has plenty of battery, how can i fix this?

    My iphone turns off and shows the 'no battery' image every time even though it has plenty of battery sometimes it even has 100%. If i take this to the apple store will they charge me to get it fixed?

    Update to iOS 7.1.1. Then bring it to an Apple Store if it isn't fixed.
