The airport in my macbook will not turn on

I am unable to turn on the airport in my macbook from systems preferences or from the top bar. any ideas?

There is no response from the computer. Nothing happens. When I run airport utilities, the utility does not pick up any wireless devices. Yet there is an airport card in my macbook which was working fine until last week. Here's the screen that comes up from airport utilities.

The fan on my macbook will not turn off

Please help. the fan on my macbook will not turn off. Also, my battery is no longer showing a percentage.
Thanks

Hmmm. You have done the basics. If you open the ActivityMonitor app in the Utliities folder, select CPU usuage in the column- flip it so highest % is on top. Is ther an app in that column that is spiked? Quit that app.
You can run the Apple Hardware Test by booting holding the D key on restart, this may generate an error code. Not the most complete test but it is a start.
If no AHT- Boot off your Install Disk while holding down the d key, (not c key), then run the extended Apple Hardware Test. Some disks require you to use the Option key at bootup to select AHT. Some models have a separate AHT CD.

My MacBook Pro just shut down without notice. It had about 40% of the battery life. It will not turn back on and I noticed when plugged in the little light on the power cord is blinking orange, not a solid green like normal. Anyone have this issue before

I've only had this for about 3mos. I called apple support. They tried one thing then said I have to take to the apple store. Unfortunately I don't have one nearby. So before I travel an hour+ away I thought is give it a shot on here. Thank.

Hi S,
Did they have you try an SMC Reset: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3964?

My MacBook will not turn on unless it's connected to a charger. However, when it's on and charging, it says that it has 0% battery life despite the green light on the charger. How can I fix this?

Your battery has reached the end of its life. If you have a MacBook with the removable battery you can get a new third party battery fairly cheap on eBay.

Reinstall OS X. Either use your installer DVD or do a network restore if you are using Lion or Mountain Lion.

MacBook will not turn on, quite clicking sound when connected to power

I cleaned my MacBook with a damp cloth and now the MacBook will not boot. the first time I turned it on after I cleaned it. it turned on and the screen came on the grey apple loading screen, went away for a minute when I came back it had turned itself off.
Now when I press the power button it will not do anything at all, nothing turns on it is as it is dead. I have left it outside in the sun for a couple of days incase any water got into the machine but it still will not turn on.
When I connect the power cord to the MacBook the is a faint clicking sound coming from it.
This machine is about 3 years old so it is out of warranty.
Any suggestions to what it could be ?

This same thing just happened with mine - the clicking sounds like it's coming from the left speaker. I tried an smc reset and also took a look at the logic board to look for anything I might notice. What was the outcome for you - any info would be very helpful!

My macbook will not turn on. Related to using wrong charger?

I used my macbook charger to charge a mac book pro and now my macbook will not turn on. The green light shows on the charger but it will not turn on. I am not sure it is related but what should I do?

Using one charger on another mac won't harm anything.

When my phone is not plugged into the charger or computer, it will not turn on at all; even though it is not dead. When it's plugged into the computer, it will go to a white screen with a grey apple icon and then it will turn off again and repeat. IOS7

Try this step and if you cannot get your device into recovery mode there is a chance you have a hardware failure and you need to call apple to see what service options you have.

My phone was updating the new software and now will not turn back on, what do i do?

Never fear, help is here jpeterson4! Have you attempted to plug your device into your home computer? Have you verified that the device is charged? Does anything appear on the device when you plug the device into a charger? Please keep us posted, thanks!

The M on My MacBook will not type

hello the M on My Macbook will not type it will only MiniMize it i have to paste an M

BTW you are on the wrong forum,this is an iMac forum. Do a SMC reset 2-3 times, if that does not work take the machine in for service.

HT4528 The flash on my phone will not turn off. How do i manually turn it off?

The flash on my phone will not turn off and is draining the battery. I've already tried turning the flash off in camera mode and resetting the phone to factory settings. Neither worked.

Basic troubleshooting from the User's Guide is reset, restart, restore (first from backup then as new). Try each of these in order until the issue is resolved.
If these steps do not resolve the issue, take it to Apple for evaluation and possible replacement.

My MacBook will not turn on and when I connect the charger it has a very dim light

I have just come back from holiday and went to turn on my MacBook, but it will not turn on
I connected my charger and the light is very very dim.
How do I resolve this? Will I end up losing all I have saved on it? Please help!!!

There may be something corrupted in the system, and a certain kind of reset may be able to help...

If that doesn't work, check instructions carefully and repeat if necessary, see about taking the computer to an Apple Store and try to call ahead for Genius appointment; or contact an authorized reseller with product specialists and service.
Some users ventured into their out-of-warranty macbooks to check the actual cables going from the battery compartment to the logic board, apparently some batteries unplug. Others you can't get into.
I see following post/link says several things, can't vouch for any except ^ the SMC reset support page above: https://discussions.apple.com/message/23996241#23996241 - Also, check the right side in this recent thread for links to similar topics.
{In order to make a backup at this late a date, you'd need power to the computer; enough to try & see if something as quaint as 'Target Disk mode' would work... If your Macbook is one with Firewire ports.}
•How to use and troubleshoot FireWire target disk mode:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1661
With FW TDM, the failed computer can sometimes be powered up holding the T-key down, and a firewire icon would appear on the screen; then one could go about attaching or using a FW cable of correct type and connect it to another capable computer, then the failed computer's HDD would appear as an external drive. In the past, it was possible to clone or copy a drive from a computer that won't boot to another hard disk drive. Or at least copy stuff of that does not require the system to function along with the saved files.
Good luck & happy computing!
