My playbook isn't turning on anymore

Greetings, i have Blackberry Playbook and i was trying to get some music on it via usb, but suddenly my playbook screen just black out, and now it's not turning on, only showing red light for 5-10secs and this screen and nothing more i was even waiting for 3hrs, thought something will change, but nah, i can't even do factory reset. Help please !

Try connecting your Playbook to the wall outlet USB cable charger (not to your PC).
Let it charge a few hours, and then LEAVE it connected and press the top edge POWER button for about 20 seconds.
Do you see any LED light activity or anything on the screen?
if it doesn't reboot, leave it connected, and repeat the above.

Playbook won't turn on anymore unless plugged in

I've had my playbook for about 2 weeks and up until yesterday morning it was working perfectly. Now it won't turn on. When I plug it into the mains using the provided charger the red light lights up for about 10 seconds then goes off for about 5 and just keeps repeating.
I plugged it into my pc to try and run the device manager but the light does the same thing and I cannot turn it on. When it's plugged into the PC it sounds as though it's connected then when the light goes off it sounds as though the device has been disconnected
I left it over night to charge and this morning the red light was green, as though it was fully charged, I pressed the power button and the playbook came to life but the battery said it only had half charged. As soon as I take out the charger, the playbook turns off again and cannot be switched back on. It's incredibly frustrating.
I've also tried the three button re-boot and nothing works.
I'm taking it back to the store I bought it from to try and get a replacement (I'm still within the 3 weeks warranty with the store) but I wanted to know if this was a common problem that can be solved without taking it back?

No, not common.
Try this, while connected to your charger. Press and hold the Power key, up and down volume (-/+) all three buttons simultaneously for about 10-12 seconds. That should allow a reset of the PlayBook and to power up.

MacBook randomly shut down and isn't turning on anymore.

Hi. So yesterday my mid-2012 MacBook Pro died on me. It was on my bed charging and just quit. Now, it definitely wasn't overheated because when it died the bottom of the laptop was very cool. When I plug in my charger, I only see a dim green light and it flickers from orange to green real fast. I know it's not my chargers fault because it still charges other MacBooks besides mine. I was also attempting to charge my phone at the time with a very weird charger.. But I'd charged my phone with the same charger the previous night using my MacBook and there were no issues.
I have a feeling that my battery is kaput because recently the battery life had been dying quickly that's why I always had it on charge.
I just hope it's not the motherboard because I don't have AppleCare and my 1 year warranty is up. I would like some advice on what it could be. I'm gonna try to find a nearby apple store because there are none near me-- but idk how long that will take.
I've called the apple hotline and we tried the SMC restart but that didn't even help at all.
I'm hoping someone could give me a bit of advice as to what this may be because I'm a college student and I bed my laptop to start working ASAP because of all the work I have on it. And I also don't have a real big budget. Help?

I would like some advice on what it could be.
Hard to tell unless we can examine your computer ourselves. Could be any number of things.

Apple Stores are not the only places that repair Macs - AASP's Outside of the USA
How to find your nearest Apple Authorized Service Provider (AASP)
but idk how long that will take.
Ask the repair techs. Only they would know after they find out what is really wrong.

NB500 does not turn on anymore

Hi everyone,
So, 2 days ago i was in the middle of using my NB500 and suddenly the laptop turned off automatically. I tried turning it back on but it won't turn back on.
So here's what i've tried to fixed the problem:
- I've tried taking the battery out, while leaving the re-charger plugged into the laptop and tried turning it on but it won't turn on.
- I've tried taking the battery out and unplugging the re-charger from the laptop and holding down on the power button for 30 seconds then plugging back the re-charger and tried turning it on but it won't turn on.
Here's what i noticed about the laptop after this problem has occured.
-When i have the re-charger plugged in, the light which lights up orange when the re-charger is plugged charging the laptop isn't lighting up anymore when i have the re-charge plugged in. So this might indicate with the re-charger is broken or it's the laptop. But it's likely to be the laptop because when i was last using it with charger plugged into the laptop , the laptop suddenly shut down for no reason. So it can' tbe the fact that the laptop is out of battery.
-When every time i hold down the power button for 5 seconds with the battery still in the laptop then let go of the power button, the green light which lights up when the laptop is on does a quick flash.
So, if anyone knows how to solve this problem please help me out.

On this virtual way it is not easy to say what is wrong there. We can just speculate about the problem and this hardware related issue.
I cannot say for sure but for me it sounds like power supply electronic problem (mainboard).
I’m afraid you will not be able to solve this issue alone. Contact nearest Toshiba service, explain the situation and ask for help.

Apple does not fix iDevices. Instead, they exchange yours for a refurbished or new replacement depending upon the age of your device and refurbished inventories. On rare occasions when there are no longer refurbished units for your older model, they may replace it with the next newer model.
ATTN: Beginning July 2013 Apple Stores are now equipped to do screen repairs/replacements in-house on iPhone 5 and 5C. In some cases while you wait. According to Apple this is the beginning of equipping Apple Stores with the resources needed to do most repairs for iPhones, iPads, and iPod Touches that would not require major replacements. Later in the year the services may be extended as Apple Stores become equipped and staffed with the proper repair expertise. So, if you need a screen repaired or a broken screen replaced or have your stuck Home button fixed, call your local Apple Store to see if they are now doing these in-house.
You may take your device to an Apple retailer for help or you may call Customer Service and arrange to send your device to Apple:
Apple Store Customer Service at 1-800-676-2775 or visit online Help for more information.
To contact product and tech support: Contacting Apple for support and service - this includes international calling numbers.
You will find respective repair costs in the appropriate link:
iPod Service Support and Costs
iPhone Service Support and Costs
iPad Service Support and Costs
There are third-party firms that do repairs on iDevices, and there are places where you can order parts to DIY if you feel up to the task:
1. iResq or Google for others.
2. Buy and replace screen yourself: iFixit

from the information you provided i can't tell if it is a hardware problem or a software problem. I do have an idea though, try to press your home button and lock button at the same time.

Backlight does not turn on anymore Satellite M70-147

Hello outhere,
The backlight of my M-series M70-147 does not turn on anymore.
I first noticed this when awakening the laptop from standby or hibernation mode.
At first I thought the screen was not working anymore, but when I looked closely I could still make out the icons on the desktop vaguely. So at first I rebooted the laptop and then most of the times the backlight would turn on and stay on.
But now it does not do that anymore, not even when I close the screen (to force standby mode) and then open it again, the backlight won't turn on.
I also looked at other forums and topics what the cause might be, a broken backlight or a faulty power inverter.
So can anybody with the symptons described tell me what the cause might be?
I'm pretty sure nothing is wrong with the graphics card because when I hooked on my laptop to my dads LCD monitor it just displayed the desktop of my laptop on the LCD monitor. Also the first time I did this after pressing Fn-F5 a few times the screen of my laptop would come on some times. But now it does not do that anymore.
So can anybody with the symptons described tell me what the cause might be?
Many thanks.

> So can anybody with the symptons described tell me what the cause might be?
For me it looks like a faulty FL inverter.
The FL inverter is a small part behind the display frame and it controls the backlight.
Usually the external display should work properly because the FL inverter affects the internal display only...
However, the issue can be solved only by replacement of this part.
I recommend contacting the Toshiba ASP in your country to get this part replaced

Hi, I bought an iPod 2 and I jailbreaked it before. I tried to download the iOS 5.0.1 from the Settings icon on my iPad 2 and then my iPad wouldn't turn on anymore and it kept on showing a screen with an arrow pointing to an iTunes symbol.

I tried to download the iOS 5.0.1 from the Settings icon on my iPad 2 but then my iPad wouldn't turn on anymore and it kept on showing a screen with an arrow pointing to an iTunes symbol. I later learned that this was the recovery screen so I tried to put it out of the recovery mode by pressing the home button and power button simultaneously, but the screen kept on returning back to the recovery screen. I could not restore the iPad 2 on iTunes either, so I downloaded Tiny Umbrella 5.10.01 and tried to save the shsh. However, under the recovering devices section on the left side, my iPad did not appear and I only got a device titled ?18092..... I tried to save the shsh of this ?18902... anyways but this did not work. So, I clicked on the device and pressed the exit recovery but then my iPad2 screen went black with a white apple logo in the middle. This logo keeps on dimming and disappearing and even when I plug my iPad 2 to the computer, neither my iTunes nor the Tiny Umbrella notice it. I need urgent help!

At this point only a restore will fix your issue.

Personal File Sharing won't be turned on anymore

Under the Sharing System Preference, the Personal File Sharing will not be turned on anymore. When I select it, "File Sharing staring up . . ." message comes up, but it stays like that forever. Because of this problem, I can not share my files with other computers anymore. Is this due to a corrupted preference file, or something? Please help me.

My ipod nano 7th generation is stuck in a restore loop with a white screen. Now it won't turn on anymore. What to do?

My new Ipod Nano 7th generation is stuck in a restore loop. Here is what happened: I added music to it using the latest version of iTunes, the colored bar at the bottom of the summary tab in iTunes showed my that I added it and I disconnected it to listen to the music. As I turned it on, it told me that there is neither music nor pictures on it. So I connected it again to my computer and iTunes told me that I had to restore. Which I did following all the steps but it keep telling me that I need to restore it. After three times of restore it, I disconnected it from my PC and turned it off. Now it won't turn on anymore - even though the battery is fully charged - and when I connect it to iTunes, iTunes tell me "The iPod software updater could not be contacted. The server does not support this version of iTunes." Well, I just downloaded the newest version a couple of minutes ago from the apple website. My iPod stays black. What shall I do?

Hi clarity,
Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
You may want to first try removing and reinstalling the latest version of iTunes by following the steps in this article:

If you continue to receive the error message when connecting your iPod, see this article for more troubleshooting tips:

Iphone 4s doesn't turn on anymore!!

My iphone 4s doesn't turn on anymore. It does shows it needs to be charged but it has been charged all night long and the battery should be full by now. The night before it did turn on a few times but it only showed 1% was charged while I was charging it didn't charge.. What can I do to fix it? Is it the battery? Because it's not the charger.

Hi ,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
I know it can be frustrating when a button on your iPhone no longer functions. The step you mentioned to reset the iPhone would be the step I would recommend if the Sleep/Wake button did function. In this case however, it may be necessary to have your iPhone evaluated for repair. Please use the information in the attached web-link to learn about this process.

my ipod wont turn on anymore
it is dead ive tried charging it for ever and a day im kinda mad cuz i harldy go to use it and i dont have a clue on here how t get

No as you did not mention which model iPod Nano you have.
Call Apple Care.   You have 14 days from the date of purchase to return your iPod Nano with no questions asked.
Take FULL advantage of your warranty. Posting on a message board should be done as a last resort and if you are out of warranty or Apple Care has expired.
If the warranty has expired, take the iPod Nano to an Apple store or an AASP. Whichever is more convenient for you.   Your battery may be dead.

My Ipad 2 won`t turn off anymore

Hello,
my Ipad 2 64GB Wi-Fi won`t turn off anymore. IOS 5.1.1
When i slide the button it shuts down only to restart itself after few seconds.
Tried allready 10 seconds Power/Home button for reboot. Made a restore like new trough iTunes also.
It would turn off only when pluged in charger, or attached to PC.
Any ideas ?
Btw. i`m in Europe now, is Apple warranty international or? ( Ipad bought in US)
Thanks!

Try a reset. Hold the Sleep and Home button down (together) for about 10 seconds until you see the Apple logo. Ignore the red slider.
You must see the Apple logo.
