Something wrong with Power button

I feel like theres something wrong with my laptop's power button because whenever I press it to turn on/off it doesnt work but it takes a couple of tries for it to turn on/off. It was working fine when I got a month ago but now I have to keep pressing the button 3 or 4 times for it turn on/off.
Please somebody help me.

Basic troubleshooting steps clearly outlined in the User Guide are restart, reset, restore from backup, restore as new device.  Have you gone through ALL of these troubleshooting steps?

    Did you purchase the Mac new?
    You have 14 calendar days from the time your items are delivered to initiate a return as noted here.
    Even though you are past the 14 day limit, if it were me, I'd take the Mac back and explain what's going on. Your Mac should work out of the box.

  • There is something wrong with the volumes buttons in my macbook pro, every time i pressed the one who raises the volume, it leads me to the screen where (i do not no what its called) the background is black with the date and time and a calculator.

    There is something wrong with the volumes buttons in my macbook pro, every time i pressed the one who raises the volume, it leads me to the screen where (i do not no what its called) the background is black with the date and time and a calculator. However, when i lower it, my safari tab goes out of the screen. What do you guys think i should do? I'm getting very nervous.

    hey HAbrakian!
    You may want to try using the information in this article to adjust the behavior of your function keys to see if that resolves the behavior:

    Try a Reset [Hold the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons down together for 10 seconds or so (until the Apple logo appears) and then release. When the screen goes blank power On again in the normal way.] It is absolutely/appsolutely safe!

    One user reported that placing the iPod in the freezer fixed the problem. A trick that works frequently with iPhones:
    Settings > AirPlane Mode ON, Do Not Disturb ON
    Power down and wait 5-10 minutes
    Power up
    Settings > AirPlane Mode OFF, Do Not Disturb OFF
    If not successful, an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is usually in order.

  • Is there something wrong with this table row definition?

    I have am supporting a coldfusion app that manipulates several forms.  One one particular page, there is a form that consists of several tables.  The last 3 lines of the last table are
        <tr>
                <td height="35" align="right" valign="middle">Description:</td>
                <td align="left" valign="middle"><input name="tmpPurpose" class="RptStd" size="70" maxlength="100" value="" onblur="document.ExpnDtl.Purpose.value = this.value;" onchange="ChkName(<cfoutput>#Session.CCWarn#</cfoutput>)" /><input type="hidden" name="Purpose" value="" />
                             <a href="#" id="aDesc" onclick="ShowHelp('9')" style="border:none; display:inline; padding: 0px 0px 0px 0px"><img src="/images/Help_Icon.gif" height="14" width="13" border="0" /></a>
                            </td>
          </tr>
          <cfif IsDefined("form.ExpnsCntrb")>
              <tr id="CntrbErr">
                   <td colspan="2" class="Error"><cfoutput>#form.ExpnsCntrb#</cfoutput></td>
              </tr>
          </cfif>
          <tr id="expnContrib">
                  <td align="left" valign="middle" height="35" class="RptStd" colspan="2">Is expenditure a contribution to a candidate, officeholder, or political committee?    <input type="radio" name="rdoCntrb" value="Y" /> Yes    <input type="radio" name="rdoCntrb" value="N" /> No</td>
           </tr>
          <tr id="COHInfo">
              <td colspan="2" class="RptStd" align="left" valign="middle" height="35">
                  <input type="checkbox" name="chkCand" id="chkCand" value="X" onclick="if (this.checked) document.ExpnDtl.btnCOH.disabled = false; else document.ExpnDtl.btnCOH.disabled = true;" />Direct expenditure to benefit a candidate or officeholder    
                  <input type="button" name="btnCOH" value=" Enter C/OH Information " class="RptBtn" onclick="window.open('/Testing/Test_COHBenefit.cfm?Parent=' + document.ExpnDtl.ItemID.value + '&Type=EXPN&Form=' + document.ExpnDtl.ExpnCode.value, 'CandidateInfo', 'width=730px,height=475px,scrollbars,resizable,location')" disabled /> <a href="#" id="aDirExpn" onclick="ShowHelp('11')" style="border:none; display:inline; padding: 0px 0px 0px 0px"><img src="/images/Help_Icon.gif" height="14" width="13" border="0" /></a>
              </td>
         </tr>
         </table>
    Now whne the form is displayed on my page, I always see the line of text Description and the line of text Direct expenditure to benefit a candidate or officholder (in bold above).  But I never see the line of text  Is expenditure a contribution to a candidate... (in italics above).   It seems so simple but I can't figure out why that line does not display!!  Is there something wrong with that tr/td definition?

    Have you tried removing the ID?  Just to see if some CSS might be using that ID with a display:none or visibility:none statement?

  • Is there something wrong with my Retina Macbook Pro?

    I have been looking at the Geekbench scores for the new retina model with 2.6GHz and 8GB of RAM and they are getting around 11-12 thousand as there final score. When I do it (I have the 2.6GHz model), I receive a score between 5-6 thousand. Is something wrong with my computer, or what?

    You can't really do a benchmark on your MB if you're running on batteries.
    Keep in mind, when you're running on batteries, your MB is not using your CPU's full potential since it's on power saving mode.
    Too do a proper benchmark, your MB must be plugged in to take advantage of your CPU's full power and your graphic card's power.
    I for one do not follow benchmarks anymore.  I used to when I used to build my own gaming rig with all the bells and whistles.
    But to be honest, you will never, ever put your MB in such extreme.
    If you're still not satisfied with your MB's performace, you can either follow or ignore my or sig's comments.

  • Is there something wrong with my BT Vision.

    Is there something wrong with my BT Vision.
    It lists loads of programmes, but when I click them there are only a few episodes available.
    For example, I search for "Regular Show" using the Blue button and since I've had BT Vision (for a couple of months), only the same two episodes have ever appeared. 

    Hi McKenzieM,
    Welcome to the forum.
    I checked "Regular Show" and it looks like episodes 29 and 30 are currently available. I have sent this off to double-check this.
    Can you give me examples of what other programs are showing a few episodes so I can look into it?
    Thanks,

  • Just wondered if anyone else is experiencing the following problem and knows a solution. I know a few friends who are also having the issue so its obviously something wrong with IOS7.   Basically I have an iphone 4 and upgraded to v7 and most recently v7.

    Just wondered if anyone else is experiencing the following problem and knows a solution. I know a few friends who are also having the issue so its obviously something wrong with IOS7.
    Basically I have an iphone 4 and upgraded to v7 and most recently v7.0.2. When I am on calls the phone started to beep and vibrate and sometimes change the call to speaker. It seems to be that the screen is sometimes active whilst on calls and so my ear is actually pressing the buttons and hitting numbers or changing it to speaker phone. It has also cancelled a call a few times.
    This is extremely annoying and makes every call a worry.
    Any ideas of how to solve this problem?

    I have taken it back to the Apple store genius bar, but they say they don't see anything wrong. Well unless you use it all day and experience the problems when they happen, you wont see anything wrong. But there are lots wrong with it. But this would be the same store as I purchased the phone. And they backed up my old Iphone 4, but were not able to get anything to load back onto my new phone. So, I lost pretty much everything. But over time, some of my contacts have started showing up, although i am still missing over 800 of them.

    If it says your billing info is wrong that means that your credit card issuer is refusing to approve your account. You will have to solve the problem with your bank or credit card company.
