Unplugged iPhone5 and MacBook Pro won't turn on

Downloading Indesign using hotspot from my iPhone 5 unplugged it and the computer shut off shortly after, plugged in power no response. Note I was at 74% my phone was at 16% all I did was unplug my phone and black it goes. It say 2010 on the back tried shift-control-option and power, no response. No tools to pull the back off to disconnect the battery so I'm just researching till I get home. Any thoughts?

Hi C,
A friend of mine unplugged his iPod without dismounting it first. Poof. End of logic board. I don't know if you need to dismount an iPhone or not, but if so, and you didn't . . . .

  • Full Battery and MacBook Pro won't turn on

    So I was working on my MacBook Pro making a slide show and my other computer needed some power so I unplugged my Pro and plugged it into my other computer. After about five minutes my MacBook Pro just shut down. I don't know what happened, but the power is full and when I press the power button it doesn't do anything. It's almost like the power button doesn't even work. Any help would be very appreciated!! I really need to get this slideshow done!

    I recently had a very similar problem...  Last Monday I had been using my MBP for a presentation and by the end of the presentation my battery was DEAD.  That was ok b/c I wasn't planning on doing anything else that night...  The problem came the next day when AFTER CHARGING it would still not turn on. After trying ALL DAY to get my computer to start up, I finally had my mom take it out to the Apple Store and you probably won't like the answer that I got re: my MBP...
    They said that there as a lot of dust that had gotten into it (I had had a couple of keys that had come off of my keyboard) They also said that the only way to get it working again was to do a COMPLETE & TOTAL OVERHAUL OF MY COMPUTER at a whopping cost of $1140.00 since a) my AppleCare expired in March and b) they said that there appeared to also be a little bit of OLD water damage!! 
         Because I am disabled and the only "work" that I do is volunteer for the non-profit organization that my mom & I founded (Dreams Fulfilled Through Music) I certainly don't have an extra $1140 sitting around to repair this!
         What I finally ended up doing was going to a outside authorized Apple Repair Center where they removed the HD from my MBP (that runs 10.7.4) and put it into an enclosure so that I could still access my data (since my mom has an identical MBP).  this only cost me $114 and will allow me to save up for the repairs and or replacement of my computer. 
         The problem that I ran into now is that b/c my mom is almost constantly using her computer, I had to try to start up my older MBP with the external HD from my 3yr old MBP.  Unfortunately, my older MBP only has 2.16GHz of Processor speed & 2 GB of RAM and unfortunately is only running 10.4.11!! When I plugged in the external HD, I was able to see the drive & it's contents but when I attempted to "Start Up" this laptop from that disk w/ Mac OS X 10.7.4 on it, this laptop wouldn't recognize the new version of Mac OS X and thus wouldn't start up from that disk. 
         I've just about decided that I this (now 6 yr old computer) is SIMPLY NOT CAPABLE of starting up from the HD that was taken out of my newer (3 yr old) MBP!!
    Does anyone know if this is in fact the case?
    I truly hope that this is not the case with your MBP but I figured since our experiences were SO SIMILAR that I should at least share with you what AppleCare Geniuses told me about my computer!
    I also hope that someone can also answer my question about starting up my older laptop from the newer HD. 
    Take Care

  • My MacBook pro won't turn on all the way gets to the apple with the spinning wheel underneath and that's all I need help asap

    My MacBook pro won't turn on it just gets 2 the spinning wheel and keeps spinning

    Reinstall OS X without erasing the drive
    Do the following:
    1. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions
    Boot from your Snow Leopard Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list.  In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive.  If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer.
    If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior and/or Tech Tool Pro to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.
    2. Reinstall Snow Leopard
    If the drive is OK then quit DU and return to the installer.  Proceed with reinstalling OS X.  Note that the Snow Leopard installer will not erase your drive or disturb your files.  After installing a fresh copy of OS X the installer will move your Home folder, third-party applications, support items, and network preferences into the newly installed system.
    Download and install the Combo Updater for the version you prefer from support.apple.com/downloads/.
    If this doesn't work then you will need to erase the drive and install Snow Leopard from scratch:
    Erase and Install Snow Leopard
    1. Boot from your OS X Installer Disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button.  When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu.
    2. After DU loads select your hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Note the SMART status of the drive in DU's status area.  If it does not say "Verified" then the drive is failing or has failed and will need replacing.  SMART info will not be reported  on external drives. Otherwise, click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
    3. Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions from the drop down menu to one. Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID then click on the OK button. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Partition button and wait until the process has completed.
    4. When completed quit DU and complete the Snow Leopard installation.

    Reinstalling Mavericks, Lion/Mountain Lion Without Erasing the Drive
    Boot to the Recovery HD: Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
    Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions: Upon startup select Disk Utility from the main menu. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions as follows.
    When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list.  In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive.  If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed.

    Depends upon what you mean by it not turning on, there are various causes.
    Is the power button pressed and nothing happens? Disconnect all other devices, then a SMC and NVRAM reset.
    Is there a white screen and nearly nothing? A hosed EFI firmware.
    Is there a grey screen and a loading bar that gets stuck? Either a failed firmware update or corrupted drive/OS X.
    Is there a grey screen with a spinning wheel? Bad third party or Apple at boot kext file.
    Are you loading but not able to log in? Possible corrupt third party software designed to startup upon login.

    my macbook pro won't turn on without any reason, is there any solution in this case?

    You need to hit the "reply" button on post to whom your responding too, it's hard to tell if your responding to me or someone else.
    small button on the side of the computer and didn't lightting up( no reponse at all). is their any problems do think with the battery?
    Usually if your battery is dead because it wasn't charged you can do the SMC Reset and then check the Magsafe if it's connected and showing the orange light, then let the battery charge up.
    Once the battery charges up, the computer will boot normally and then you have to reset the PRAM, time, date etc.

    CD will not eject and MacBook Pro won't restart.

    Do a SMC reset, that hopefully should get you booting and while booting, hold the option/alt and trackpad button down at the same time. Once a row of icons appears and if the disk hasn't ejected via the trackpad method, then press the eject key on the keyboard until it does.
