What do I do when my MacBook Air is running but the screen won't turn on?
I have had my MacBook Air less than a year and have been using it daily and have had no problems with it until this morning. I opened it and expected my login screen to appear as it usually does and the screen remained black. The computer is running and it is warm, but I cannot get the screen to come on. I have tried holding down the power button, charging it completely, etc. Help!
I'm not sure if this can help but I will explain the problem I had and the steps I took to resolve it. As with many reported MacBook Air start up problems reported, I went through all the reset steps recommended. It started when playing a video that the video froze with a repeated audio playing. After shutting down with the power button I had a hard time booting up the computer. Symptoms would be power on light on with blank screen or power light on with gray screen. My computer would not complete the boot sequence. Then I reset the computers PRAM, SMC and even tried booting in the verbose mode or single mode. Sometimes the computer would boot up and all was well until I did work that demanded more of the processor. On one of those times where I was lucky to get the computer to boot up properly, I then removed and apps or software that I installed that was always working in the background. This reduced the load on the processor.
From here I went to the "Finder" icon then selected "Applications". In "Applications" I selected "Utilities". In the upper left corner of the "Utilities" box I have two drive labels of which the first one was selected. Then the lower middle of the box I clicked on the "Repair disk Permissions" button. The computer did it's work and after a few minutes completed the repair for that drive. I then selected the second drive and did the same.
After this was done I started to use the computer heavily running videos and switching from site to site to see how the processor was doing. I also turned the computer off and on throughout the last 24 hours and had no problems with boot up. Videos are running without any problems. I also had no heat problems. I still use SmcFanControl.
I assume that the additional software I installed to run in the background was loading up the processor to the point of creating more problems. The repair disk feature had cleared up the software problem that was created and now my computer works fine. I do not think is was a hardware problem.
I hope this will help some of you. I have tried for a couple of years to find a solution to my problem and with many options it is difficult to find the right one. -

Take it back to the Apple Store for repair since it's still in warranty.

what do I do when my macbook pro just shuts down and when I plug my charger in, it faintly blinks green and yellow and doesnt charge?
Hi aaliyafrommarkham,
In order to troubleshoot this, I would recommend that you start with an SMC reset. Information on this procedure can be found here:

My on/off button sticks and today my iPhone shut off and I can't turn it back on. Also it isn't even reponding when I plug it in. Any ideas? Is there some way it can be reset?
If the reset does not help, make an appointment at the Apple store. If your phone is out of warranty and you can't afford what they want, google for local repair services.

New MacBook Air - Camera "blinks" off and on occasionally
I just bought a new MacBook Air 13 a few days ago; I downloaded Skype the day I bought it. So everything should be up-to-date.
It doesn't matter how long I have been on Skype or anything thing like that, but every 30 seconds to a few minutes the camera and green indicator light blinks off and the back on, but only for a second. The person on the other end even notices it as my camera either turns off or the picture lags/freezes. Is this a known problem with Skype or is this an issue with my MacBook?I don´t have or use a MacBook air, but I did notice the LED blinking usually when Skype switches the used video resolution. You may already know that Skype can adjust the video resolution according to different parameters like available bandwidth, cpu speed, and so on. If you want to verify this, you could turn on "Show Technical Information" via the menu. Within the call, it shows the sending and receiving video resolution somewhere in the new technical information window. Just as the resolution switches, the LED flickers real quick. If this is the case, then that´s that. You cannot do anything about it. There is unfortunately no way to force a fixed setting regarding the used resolution.
