My P305D-S8828 Laptop. Will no longer turn on

I recently returned from Iraq where I had my laptop with me. I went to turn it on and do a factory specs reboot with my recovery disks. In the final stage of the reboot where it should have turned on and been ready to use it completely died. The laptop does not do anything. No lights, beeps, sounds. Nothing. Any ideas or thoughts would be appreciated.
Thank You Patrick

Roaminggnome's answer is neither strictly accurate nor is it especially helpful. There exist a number of third party applications that are neither supported nor endorsed by Apple, but that once installed on your new MacBook will allow you to download your files from your iPhone. Just Google "back-up music from iPhone" and you should get a range of products to choose from.
And after you've bought and downloaded one of them and restored your iTunes content, go an buy an external drive to back-up your iTunes library

Did you try to charge it using the adapter or your computer?
If you can, let it charge for about 15min, then connect in recovery mode, described in this article:
iOS: Unable to update or restore
If still not luck, your battery might have to be replaced:

My iPod will no longer turn on after I fully charged it. HELP!

I knew I should have never trusted Apple with personal files. I put all of my pictures from my digital camera (1,800 of them) on the ipod for "safe" keeping. Now my ipod will no longer turn on. I fully charged the ipod until the "charged" icon appeared. Then I disconnected it. A couple hours later I tried to turn it on and it no longer turns on. I've had this iPod for about 6 months and I'm pretty sure it's not a dead battery. It's been very good with me. The hold switch is NOT activated. I went through all of the common sense troubleshooting steps. I tried to reset the ipod. I tried recharging it on AC power. I tried reconnecting it via USB on computer. I tried the updater, which doesn't work b/c ipod won't turn on. I've also tried hitting it...jk. I also have 10,330 songs on here. This is my life on my ipod. I can't afford to lose this info. 60GB gone. Is there anything else I can do to fix this? Any help would be GREATLY appreciated. Thanks

My daughter's ipod touch got hot while charging and will no longer turn on.

My daugther's ipod touch got hot and will no longer turn on. Is there a solution to this problem or is the ipod fried?

I'm not sure if it's fried or not, but try rebooting the device by pressing and holding the on/off and home buttons simultaneously for about 15 seconds or so. Hopefully you will see the Apple logo.

Upgrade to Snow Leopard - it's compatible with the latest version of iTunes, and still supports PowerPC applications.
$19.99 - http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573Z/A/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
Snow Leopard is required if you wanted to upgrade to Lion, anyway, which you may want to in the future if the latest version of iTunes no longer supports Snow Leopard.

- 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 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.

IF RESET DOESN'T WORK, FORCE IPAD INTO RECOVERY MODE
1. Turn off iPad
2. Turn on computer and launch iTunes (make sure you have the latest version of iTune)
3. Plug USB cable into computer's USB port
4. Hold Home button down and plug the other end of cable into docking port. Do not release button until you see picture of iTunes and plug (very important)
5. Release Home button.
ON COMPUTER
6. iTunes has detected iPad in recovery mode. You must restore this iPad before it can be used with iTunes.
7. Select "Restore iPad"...
Note: Data will be lost

Installed SMC 1.3 update on 17 inch MBP - screen will no longer turn on!

Hey guys I downloaded this firmware update today on Software Update. The fan revved full speed (like it says it will) then stopped. After the restart my screen will no longer turn on. I have tried resetting PRAM, SMC, connecting an external monitor, and every other trick I can think of. The computer is still running as I can log in and use the function keys to change the volume up and down but the screen is solid black.This is the first issue I've had with the computer (purchased December 2007)and I DESPERATELY need to get it running ASAP! Anyone have any ideas?
[edit]
To elaborate, the first time I called Apple they told me to hold the power button until the computer made a noise and then boot up. That turned the screen back on and I got in and cleared the cache as they said I should. Next reboot screen was black again. Then when I reset the PRAM I got in. Reboot, black screen. Then finally when I reset the SMC I got in, same deal on reboot. Now none of those tricks works. Any way to downgrade the SMC? At least the previous firmware worked.

Hi Balance ... in this case the weak link in the chain is your local dealer. It is odd that they "refuse clients" and Apple should be made aware of that as they are part of the support structure. Have you tried finding a kind ear at Apple who will take this on and intervene with a phone call to your local chappies?
I have also been an Apple purchaser for >20 years and this is the first time I have had a software update cause a hardware problem ... perfect storm ... a weak NVIDIA chip (mine originally passed apple tests but those tests only caught the really bad defects), an odd temperature response after the update, and a failure response that most service shops call "intermittent" (which makes them suspect it is your fault instead of Apple's. This is now a known issue linked into the update so if you find the right guy at Apple you may be able to persuade them simply to ship a new motherboard to you or the dealer...
Good luck but what, exactly, is a viable alternative to Apple?? I still keep my slide rule in my back pocket (and am now working from an old macbook while my MBP was in the shop for a week).

HT1386 my phone will no longer turn all the way on or sinc... It just says activation required.

My I phone will no longer turn on all the way or conect with my computer all the way to sinc.... keeps saying "activation required"? How do I activate?

The only time I have ever seen that is when my SIM card is out of my phone. Try opening the sim card tray and then replacing it after a minute. Use a paperclip to pop the door open on the side of the phone (if it is a 4 or 4s) or on top (if 3GS) and see if that changes the alert message. Check back with status if that doesn't help. You can also trying a full restore by plugging it into your computer and opening iTunes. When it recognizes the phone click on the phone name in the left menu and hit restore. This will erase the phone but if you have a backup you can restore from that after it resets the phone or you can set it up as a new phone and start from scratch. Good luck, let me know if this helps.

G7-1139WM Laptop will no longer power on

Hi,
My son's G7-1139WM laptop will no longer power on. Pressing the power button does not do anything, there are no lights or beep codes. When I remove the battery the light at the AC Power connector is Blue, with the battery plugged in the light is amber. I would be very appreciative of any help you can provide.

The only thing to do it take it in for repair at an AASP, due to it's age I doubt an Apple Store would work on it but an AASP may. We cannot diagose because it could be anything from a main logic board, to a hard drive or even a power supply. Without the correct tools to test it, it's a total guess.

My iPod shuffle will no longer turn on with switch.

My ipod shuffle 3rd generation, will no longer activate by the off on swotch. I have to plus into electrical outlet to get it to turn on to select what I want to hear.

MacBook Pro 4, 1 will no longer turn on

My MacBook Pro 4, 1 will no longer power up. It was working great when I shut it down but acts like it has no power now. I have tried the instructions for resetting the SMC with no luck. Any other ideas on what to do or the possible cause are appreciated!
Thanks

I wanted to add that when I press the power button the power indicator light on the lid release will come on momentarily but then off real quick. About 4-5 seconds later the light again will flash on and off. After that, nothing. Maybe that means something?

TS1367 My White 13" MacBook (the last model ever produced) will no longer turn on, and the charger light won't even luminesce when plugged in.

My MacBook has been suffering for the last 2 and a half years or so, and finally called it quits today.
There were many things wrong with it, but the most debilitating issue was with the battery; if the computer wasn't plugged into a wall, it would immediately die. Upon being powered back on, the clock would always be reset to 12/31/2000 at 7:00 PM. As I stated in the title, it will no longer even power on or recognize a charger. Help would be much appreciated. If it's a battery issue then I can replace it, but I don't want to buy a new battery if my computer is totaled.

First see the MagSafe troubleshooting tips:Apple Portables: Troubleshooting MagSafe adapters and check to see that all looks ok. You might want to try using another charger in case the charger is faulty. If that doesn't help, take the MacBook Pro and charger to an Apple store genius bar and have the technicians test the system to see where the fault is.

HP Pavilion Desktop a6000y will no longer turn on

I have a Pavilion PC A6000y that is >5 years old, with Windows Vista. For a time, it would not start up, no blue indicator light, but if left "on" would ultimately boot up after several minutes, and operate properly. I also left it on for >1 week without any trouble, until an electrical storm when I lost power to the house. It will no longer power up at all, not even blue screen. I have replaced the rear fan, replaced the complete power unit with exact spec OEM product, and replaced the power switch. Also removed and re-plugged in the memory boards. Further to one thread on here, I unplugged everything, including the power cord, held the power button down for 30 seconds and released it, switched the red power input toggle to 220 volts from 110 volts for 30 seconds and then back again. Plugged it back in, using wall outlet directly, no power strip, still absolutely nothing. I have held down several function keys during start, nothing. Fan does run, but no power light, no screen image. What do I do next? Many thanks in advance.

AmherstDKE, welcome to the forum.
With an older computer, I always suspect the power supply unit (PSU); especially when there has been a power outage. The power surge can cause the PSU to fail. Here is a guide to help you troubleshoot it.
You should always have the computer connected through a Surge Protector. This will protect your computer if there is a power outage.

Laptop will no longer drag and drop.

My macbook pro(Lion operating system)will no longer drag and drop. It will no longer allow me to grab the item, let alone drag it. Please help.

You'll be more likely to get a quick and accurate answer if you ask in the iTunes for Mac forums. This forum is for users of iTunes on Windows systems and so probably not the most likely place for you to get assistance. Even better might be Roxio's own forums:
