Trouble booting, tried several things, need help

I was using my iBook one day and put it into sleep mode and then put it in my bag. when i got home(less than 20 min later) it was off. I turned it back on and it was running fine. Then when ipicked it up off the kitchen table and walked over to the desk to set it down it just turned off. I turned it back on and the wheel froze part way through the boot. I held the power button to turn it off. This time it wouldnt turn on. I tried the reset PMU thing and still no luck. I got frustrated after several attempts and just left it alone for a week or so. I tried again one and it turned on so I booted it up in safe mode and it was working again. Then i went and shut it down. Just now it wont even turn on again. Battery is fully charged too. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

You could have them look at it at the Genius Bar but if it does need a new logic board there are cheaper places to have it done. DT&T Computer Services in Fremont, CA is about 1/2 the price.

  • HT3775 I NEED I TUNES FOR A 64 BIT PC. OPERATING SYSTEM IS WINDOWS 8, NON TOUCH SCREEN. WHICH IS THE ABSOLUTELY BEST WAY TO GET ITUNES OPERATING CORRECTLY ON MY PC????//I HAVE TRIED SEVERAL THINGS, NONE OF WHICH ARE WORKING. IS ITUNES DELIBERATELY EXCLUDI

    I cannot get itunes to work/install on myPC. I am running windows 8 in a 64 bit machine. I also want to purchase books via itunes for my Nook. Are you deliberately excluding PC owners so we cannot use ituens on our computers???? I have selected a community but have no idea what community I should be working with. Can somone explai these communities to me? Also. you don't allow much time to go thru the sign up process. I had to start over SEVERAL times as you kept timing me out. Jesus...when people are signing up for the first time, we have no idea of the questions that will be asked. Give us a break and give us time to sign up. Not everone is disability free and able to go thru your process quickly...you are NOT user friendly. You should be for people who are wanting to join your community. I used to want an Apple product but now that  I have had first hand experience with your web page, I think I will probably stay away from Apple products. VERY DISAPPOINTING

    Help! I have recently updated the software on my Iphone 4s and now my Iphone will not show up in Itunes. Can anyone please help! I am very frustrated, I have tried several things but I cannot get it to show up

    Double check the version of iTunes on your computer. You must have iTunes 11.1 or later.

  • I am not able to text one specific person.. seems i can sporadically recieve their text but they are not recieving mine.  I have looked at several forms and tried several things.. some forms suggesting a problem with the carrier.  Has anyone on Koodoo ?

    I am not able to text one specific person on my iphone 4.  They an sporadically send but she is not recieving my message.  I have read several forums and tried several things.. resetting etc... to no avail.. someone mentioned this may be the network.  can anyone help? the phone also say it is ready to install update to ios 7.0.6 which provides a fix for ssl connection verification.  then it indicates cannot be installd bcause it requires at least 3.7 GB of storage.  So i have deleted some things and pretty sure I have enough GB  but still reading the same message.  OMGosh .. so frustrated.. especially wtih the texting.

    It pains me to hear about your experience with the Home Phone Connect.  This device usually works seamlessly and is a great alternative to a landline phone.  It sounds like we've done our fair share of work on your account here.  I'm going to go ahead and send you a Private Message so that we can access your account and review any open tickets for you.  I look forward to speaking with you.

    Perhaps, iTunes can't communicate with the Apple uodate servers. Temporarily disabling your firewall and antivirus software would help. Take a look at this.

       Did you download the new iTunes update that was also released this afternoon? That might be the problem. The new iTunes update came out today as well as the new iOS 7 update and if you haven't downloaded the new iTunes update it may be a compatibility problem so if you didn't, first update to the new iTunes and try again.

    Sounds like the device was dropped at some point and damaged as a result.
    Take it to Apple for evaluation and a replacement.

  • Help!  Itunes not recognizing Ipod Nano.  Have tried several things already.

    Itunes does not recognize my ipod nano (6th generation).  When I plug it in to the computer, nothing happens (except it charges).  I have tried several of the recommendations (reinstalling itunes, resetting ipod, etc. etc.)  I have Windows 7 on my computer with the latest version of Itunes.  Interestingly, when I plug my Ipod into my other computer (which still has an older version of Itunes), it syncs right up and is recognized.
    What can I do to get Itunes to simply recognize my Ipod?  I am beyond frustrated.

  • MBP won't boot recovery USB drive, need help

    HDD failed on 15" mid2009 MacBook Pro, purchased a Seagate 1TB hybrid drive (SSHD) to replace it with. Went to boot to USB recovery drive with OS X 10.8 using option/alt on boot and would only get the folder with flashing question mark. Tried command+R also. Tried different USB ports. Tried with HDD pulled out. The USB recovery drive does work because we were able to boot to it from a different MBP, and verified the files on it with Disk Utility. Just can't get any kind of recovery options or anything on this Mac with replaced HDD. Need help. Never encountered anything like this, can't find anything like it online, and none of my coworkers can figure it out. We've all been working comps for yrs, one even an ex apple-tech. Thanks for any suggestions!!

    Sorry - missed that part about having used both USB ports...
    Since you've verified that the USB thumb drive works on another Mac, and that it won't boot whilst holding down the option key, I would advise taking your machine to an Apple Store or an AASP to have them diagnose your machine (which will be free). They, too, should have USB sticks that they can use to test the machine.
    Good luck,
    Clinton

    This is on an iPad, correct? Are you sure you have a network connection? Is your iPad Wifi or Wifi & 3G? I know these might seem like dumb questions, but we've got to narrow it down to get a solution. If you're absolutely positive you have an active network connection we can move on to other things.

    Hello,
    Ideally you need to boot from the disk as you have no other media advisable. (e.g your hard drive)
    Without some form of system disk or restore you wont be able to diagnose the problem with your hard drive.
    By using a Mac OS X system disk you can load up the Disk Utilities and repair the hard drive if shown it's available. If it's not available you would need to replace the hard drive and reinstall Mac OS. Without any disk to support you, you are going to struggle.
    You can obtain replacement disk, both retail copies or system disk on the Internet.
    If you know what version of Mac OS X you had install (I'm guessing that it would have been 10.3, but would recommend 10.4) A retail disk is normally black with a colored 'X' on it, while system disk are always.
    Always try and obtain a copy of the system restore disks (Gray) for your iBook
    Ebay is another outlet that has genuine system disk for sell, but like any auction site, it's as and when someone is selling them.
    The only other thing you could do is take it to a Apple repair agent who could check the hard drive on your behalf. That way you can get confirmation if the problem is the drive or some other fault. They may even help restore the OS for you.
    I can't think of anything else to try without some form of disk to help you.
    There maybe just one other small thing you could try.
    When booting up, firmly rest your palm of your hand on the iBook next to the tracker pad on the left side.
    If it works then it's another fault that I'm aware of.

    did what you said. followed the instruction on this website.
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=DiskUtility/10.5/en/duh1018.html
    I did this:
    Start up your computer using another disk.
    To use the Install Mac OS X disc, insert the disc and restart your computer holding down the Option key, then select the Install Mac OS X disc and click the arrow.
    Open Disk Utility.
    In the Mac OS X Installer, choose Utilities > Open Disk Utility.
    Select the startup disk you want to repair in the list of disks and volumes, then click First Aid.
    Click the button to verify or repair the disk or disk permissions.
    results:
    the Utilities through the Install Disk 1 repaired the what i could not seem to repair through Utilities on the Computer.
