    First begin by resetting the SMC (system management controller) on your macbook as shown here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3964
    Have you recently changed any hardware ? May there have been any condensation that found it's way on the greater area of the keyboard and specifically near the power button ? Have you tried pressing the area directly near the said button and then pressing the power button itself simultaneously with the possibility the contact may have gone haywire ?
    Good luck.

  • Froze on black screen and power button does not work

    my sons ipod touch is stuck on a black screen when plugged into the computer got a spinning wheel and will not connect now spinning wheel will not go away the power button does not work so can not reset it manually
    any suggestions would be appreciated

    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    Neglect the reset and when it says place the iPod in recovery mode use one of thes programs
    - 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.

  • My ipad has a black screen and the power button is not working. Help!

    This is the second time my ipad screen has gone black. The power button is not working. I reset the ipad about two weeks ago  when this happened. However, this time I am not able to get itunes to recognize the device. It keeps asking to respond from the ipad (obviously with a black screen that isn't going to happen). Im not sure what to try next...thoughts?

    Have you tried to give it a reset?
    Reset
    Hold down the sleep and home keys for about 20 seconds. When you see the silver apple, let go and let it reboot. No data will be lost.

  • My iphone power button is not working. What can I do?

    Hello, I bought an iphone 5 last year and it still in warranty . It has some regular scratches for the use but it never felt down.
    The power button is not working now and I sent to an apple retailer here in Brazil (SOMA - Revenda APPLE Solution Expert e Assis. Tecnica Autorizada) to fix it. They refuse to do it saying that the button is not working because of  the scratches what I believe is not true. And the retailler suggest to me to buy a new one.
    And more, I receive the iphone with the factory configuration and I don’t know why.
    I would know what can I do to fix the iphone. And How can I use the warranty here in Brazil.
    I couldn't find an e-mail from apple.com support to report this.
    I will stay in US next december. I can fix my phone in an Apple Store?
    I'm very dissapointed with the technical assistance here in Brazil.
    Thank You

    Meaning that you cannot restart or reset the phone?  If you haven't tried already, try both options.
    Otherwise, you can do a backup & restore, or even a restore as new (only after a successful backup).
    If the issue persists, then look at a replacement. Either it will be a hardware defect (free if within warranty), or physical damage ($49 with AppleCare Plus, $149 without it.)

    I am having MacBook Pro 3 yrs old and today while I was watching some movie on it suddenly it got power off and when I am trying to start it, it's power button is not working even the round button on external left side is not showing battery lights. But when I connect it to chrger then Charger only gives green light and even the external round button only shown 4 green lights (if charger connected). I don't know what to do now

    Sounds like you need a #1SMC Reset
    1. SMC reset
    >>Instructions to reset SMC
    Disconnect other non-Apple and external hardware except (if applicable) a mouse and keyboard until your finished repairing your machine.
    Problems solved: Fans blowing with no activity, machine is not booting, power button pressed and nothing happens, problems with indicators, Magsafe has wrong lights, battery is not charging, monitor and graphics issues etc.  If the battery is not charged (from like letting it sleep too long), let the Mac charge up awhile afterwards.
    Will not hurt the machine resetting if it's not broken.
    Other related hardware problems (optional):
    Check battery status: Hold option/alt key down while clicking on the battery icon in the menu bar, top right corner.
    Magsafe: Use the correct/matching power supply charger with your Mac, not a less powered one from another Mac.

  • My power button is not working and my phone doesn't wanna turn on i've tried to charge it so it can turn on like it usually does but it's not turning on

    my power button is not working and my phone doesn't wanna turn on i've tried to charge it so it can turn on like i usually does but it's not turning on

    Hold down on the home button simultaenously holding on the sleep wake button (power button) hold it for more than 15 seconds this will then shut down the device.
    If the device is already shut off do this same sequence to see if you get an apple logo. If you get the logo allow the device to login. Write back if this does not resolve your issue.
    Good luck Friend.

  • Hello My ipads Power button is not working properly when I press it once it shows option to turn off instead of locking and some other display problems like it suddenly lockes down or display disappears ...Please help. Thank You

    Thanks for that information!
    I'm sure I will be calling AppleCare, but the problem is, they charge for the phone calls don't they? Because I don't have money to be spending to be on the phone with a support service.
    In other things, it seemed like the only time my MacBook was working was when I had Snow Leopard without the 10.6.8 update download that was supposed to be done to prepare for OS X Lion.
    When I look at the information of my HD it says that I have 10.6.8 but that was the install that it claimed to have failed and caused me to restart resulting in all of the repeated problems.
    Also, because my computer is currently down, and I've lost all files how would that effect the use of my iPhone? Because if it doesn't get fixed by the time OS 5 is released, how would I be able to upgrade?!

    kindly, provide the solution.
    Thanks,

    Hi RamyaVemuri,
    Welcome to the HP Forums!
    I see that your printer power button is not working, and that their is no light indicators.
    I think this guide should help. 'The Cover is Open' Message Displays on the Computer.
    If that doesn't work, please respond with the type of printer you have as their are multiple Deskjet F2400s. Finding Your HP Product Model Number.
    Hope this helps, thank you for posting.

  • Power button will not go in or out

    I have received in April a Nano generation 6 under Apples product replacement.  This replaced my great working generation 1.  The power button will not go in or out.  Tried to go to Apple support and put serial number in.  It states out of warranty.  I had it in a box since April. I should have tried it. I think these were used or refurbished by Apple.  It came in a white, non apple labeled box.  I don't know how to get help from Apple.  I want my generation 1 IPod back... Any ideas welcomed.  Thank you.

    this is not working, ever since i have new OS also noticed the on friends mac before... the solution u recomended is NOT working for me. before i usualy clicked cotrol or cmd and then pinchout with two figers and zoom worked i want it the same way..

    Your warranty expired, so of course you will have to pay.

  • TA44551 My 1-year ipod nano locked up and would not start overnight. The on/off button will not work and stopped holding charge. No water damage, no fall, nothing unusual. I restored it (twice) but it will still not hold charge and on/off does not work.

    My 1-year ipod nano locked up and would not start overnight. The on/off button will not work and stopped holding charge. No water damage, no fall, nothing unusual. I restored it (twice) but it will still not hold charge and on/off does not work. I tried to restore it again and charged it in three different locations with different cables. etc but nothing. Suggestions?

    - After charging for 1/2 hour or so, does iTunes see the iPod?  If yes, restore the iPod from backup.
    - If no, se if placing the iPod in recovery mode will make it visible so you can restore the iPod.  For recovery mode see:
    iPhone and iPod touch: Unable to update or restore
