What to do when MacBook Pro glitches and freezes, then won't turn on?

My MBP glitched and froze the other day, so I turned it off and turned it back on and it was fine. A few hours later it glitched and froze again, I turned it off but this time it wouldn't start back up again and it made a beep every 10 seconds when I would try to turn it on. I took it to the Apple Store and the replaced the RAM under warranty. Today, it glitched and froze again but I got it to come back on. I don't know what to do, and it's only a matter of time before it does it again and it won't come back on.

What? so were you able to turn on the computer with the new plug? does it give you any other light? amber/orange light?

Macbook pro crashes and freezes

Hello,i have a macbook pro 15" i7 2.2 GHZ with 4GB RAM and i have an issue which happened 2 months ago where while i was working normally,suddenly the screen turns off and the machine freezes but still working,for example if i am listening to a song on itunes when the issue occurs it loops on a certain part of the song and the hardware is working,fan and everything but the screen is off and freezed,then this issue happens more than before and i replaced the hard disk and nothoing changed,the reseller in my country did a check up on it and told me that it might be a video card problem and the whole mother board needs to be replaced which is very expensive,can anyone help me please ?

Before you go and shell out over a thousand dollars for a new Logic Board, I would try keeping the default settings for a little while, and try that. Also, if you have any special utilities (even the iStat widget), those can some times conflic with eachother and cause problems. So try to go for a bit without and see what happens. Its worth the pain and suffering if later you find you didn't need a new Logic Board afterall!

My Macbook keeps glitching and freezing

Since March 18, 2013 I have been dealing with glitches from my MacBook Pro. It freezes up and won't allow me to move my mouse or anything. Is this occuring with anyone else? The screen also glitches and beeps repeatedly at me because I have to use the On/Off button to shut down. Do you believe this could be from hardware or software damage? I take care of this like it's a baby with the except of carrying it in my backpack (Which I am very careful about) during school there has been no risk or time that I have dropped it or damaged it somehow. I could seriously use some help or light on the situation. Thank you!

i dnt think its even charging, it just has the apple logo on the screen, it dems and comes back on and then it says low battary please wait.

What is causing my macbook pro to hard freeze?

My 2011 15" MacBook Pro started hard freezing recently a couple months ago. The screen goes black and the computer seems to be stuck on a loop. If music is playing, it will repeat the same second of music over and over until I hold the power button. Sometimes I can even hear the sounds from inside the computer (the sounds of the hard drive spinning?) repeat at the same frequency.
It was rare at first but became much more frequent (once a day) and I finally decided that maybe an update from Leopard to Lion would help. So I updated but the problem is still getting worse. It is now freezing a few times a day, sometimes only minutes after starting back up following a freeze.
It does seem to be linked to activity, that is, the more I'm doing, the more likely it is to freeze. But I can skype for hours and hours with no problems even though the fans are running high and the computer seems to be working hard, and then try to preview a pdf on my desktop and it freezes.
If the update to Lion didn't help at all, what else can I do? Could this be a hardware problem?

Ok, so I looked through the system.log and couldn't see any obvious error messages but here's everything that happened after I woke my computer from Sleep and before the crash:

A glass fell on my MacBook Pro when it was open and now it won't turn on. Any suggestions?

A glass fell off a shelf onto my open MacBook Pro. It initially started making strange noises, so I tried to restart it and it froze. I then turned it off and now when I try to turn it on, the screen lights up with just a question mark and continues to make strange noises. Any suggestions on what I should do? I think it is insured so would the apple insurance cover this?

Accidents are not covered by the Apple warranty.
If the glass had water in it, you need to keep it turned off and unplugged until full water damage can be determined.
If just a heavy object, then the "questionmark folder" and funny noises suggest the image on the hard drive was injured or the drive itself injured.
I suggest getting it evaluated by Genius Bar. Too many variables currently.

My Macbook Pro crashed and now it won't even start up.

I have had my Macbook Pro for 3 years now and in the first 2.5 years I never had any problems, however in the past 6 months it has crashed at least 5 times. The most recent crash being today. Usually when it crashes I'll give it a moment and then turn it on again, everything would work as normal, but today I tried to restart it and nothing happened. I tried various times but everytime my laptop wont even make a noise.
(Side note: the battery was at 90% so its not that the battery ran out.)

Try a SMC reset:

(these symptoms may indicate that an SMC reset may be necessary:
The computer doesn't respond to the power button when pressed.)

My macbook pro fell and now it won't boot - superdrive issue?

Hi everyone,
I had a dreadful accident today. My macbook pro (mid 2007) model fell from the table; the lid opened up a little bit but thankfully the display wasn't damaged. The thing is that it won't boot; the screen remains black. The superdrive makes continuously this noise it does when the mac wakes from sleep or boots, and the boot process doesn't go any further. I have already reset its BIOS cache by removing the battery, but with no success.
Anyone familiar with this type of problem? Any chance it is coverable with applecare?
Thank you in advance,
-- ernani

It's hard to diagnose but you do have a problem. Take it to an Apple store or AASP and have them diagnose your damage. And, no AppleCare does not cover user accidents. Check with your homeowners insurance.

Photoshop 12 on new MacBook Pro crashes and freezes-

Recently installed PSE 12 on a new MacBook pro. After a few minutes PSE 12 crashed or freezes. Any suggestions?

Hello Barbara,
I'm using OS 10.9.1 I did repair permissions today, and no antivirus software. I did get a "Adobe Elements 12 Organizer quit unexpectedly" report.
Best regards,

My iPhone 3G turned off when i dropped it, and since then i try turning it on and it won't pass the apple logo, what do i do?

I dropped My iPhone 3G it turned off and since then i've tried turning it on & it won't boot through the apple logo, i already tried pressing the home button and the log off one but its the same. what do i do?!

Before you bring it in to the store, you could rule out software by placing the phone in DFU mode and restoring the OS. In the absence of hardware issues, the DFU restore will solve the issue of the phone being stuck on the Apple logo. It will also remove al data from the phone so hopefully you have a recent backup.
To put your iPhone/iPod into DFU mode:
1. Make sure the iPhone/iPod is connected to the computer
2. Hold down the sleep/wake button and home button at the same time for 8 seconds
3. Let go of the sleep/wake button and keep holding down the home button
4. If you are successful, a dialog box will pop up in iTunes stating that iTunes has detected an iPod/iPhone in recovery mode. Note that a successful DFU will result in a blank black screen on your iPhone/iPod.
5. Click OK, then click the restore button in iTunes.
Hopefully after that you will be able to resync your data and be good to go.
Hope this helps.

Is my Macbook Pro dying? (freezing, crashing, trouble at turning on/off)

Hello,
I'm having some trouble with my Macbook Pro 10.6.8. It was working very fine until last week. I've bought it speakers (for Windows, though the seller said it'd work fine for Mac too). After a few days, my Macbook started to crash a lot, freeze, and have troubles when turning on and turning off. So I've stopped using the speakers, the issue still happens. I suppose my Macbook is having those issues because of bad quality speakers. Every time I turned the computer off, I could hear an odd sound coming from the speakers.
Issues:
- It crashes. Even when I'm in a website like Google (it doesn't use flash, 3D, has many animated pictures, etc), it takes longer to crash/freeze but still it does after couple of hours. It simply randomly freezes.
- It freezes too. The same above. At times it just freezes, others, the screen goes odd! It goes messed up with the image itself, colours, stripes, it blinks... and I'm also unable to use apps such as games, skype, etc. I was able to use them few days ago.
- The "Rainbow Wheel of Death" appears often now!
- To close apps, the "send report" window now appears more often either.
- I'm almost always having trouble at turning the computer on. It sometimes delay, sometimes it tries to turn on (it appears the normal loading screen) but then it turns off because it couldn't work, so I have to try again. Sometimes the Black Screen of Death appears and I have to force turning off.
- I'm almost always having trouble at turning the computer off. That window saying that I have to restart shows up sometimes. Well, I don't have many troubles at turning off since it's turning off... but sometimes it is just odd, seeming like the computer won't turn on again. Because it lags, it briefly freezes before turning off (causing the Rainbow Wheel of Death to appear), and so on.
How I've tried to fix it:
- I did the Disk Repair numerous times.
- I ran the anti-virus and such, they didn't detect anything.
- Yesterday I've deleted thousands of junk files (you know, those odd images and files that you find in your All Documents folder?). There's plenty of free space in memory.
- Yesterday I was having too much trouble at turning it on, so it went in Internet Recovery mode. It took long to finish, I thought it was going to be fixed. But it did not.
- I often try pressing the option + command + p + r thing. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't.
- I didn't try to reinstall, because I can't find the CD installer (if I have it). But I'm sure it wouldn't work either.
None of those works. I really hope the HD disk won't die since I'm having to press the power button often... and I'm starting to think that it's an issue with graphic card/video card. But I have no idea of how to replace those, how much they cost, which I should buy, where to find... it's getting tough.
Please, help me! What's happening to my Macbook? It never had such problems before, I have it since last year! What shall I do?
This Macbook can't die! It's the only computer here and repairing/buying a new one would be so expensive!
Thanks in advance.

If it has 10.6.8 Snow Leopard on installed it is more then like a few years old. Could be the drive is failing.
Your best bet is to take it in to an Apple store and have it checked out. But first you should backup your data to an external drive as soon as possible.

MacBook Pro 8,2 freezes then beeps in group of three

MacBook Pro 8,2 MD322xx/A 2.4Ghz (Late 2011)
Mac OS 10.8.5
16GB RAM
I just bought brand new memory (2x 8GB) from OWC and installed it about 4 days ago. I also just installed an MCE Optibay 256 SSD yesterday. I cloned the OS to the new SSD, and run my home folder from the HDD now. All file copying was done using Carbon Copy Cloner, latest version. I left it copying some other files from a separate external HDD last night and when I woke up this morning, the MBP was frozen and beeping in groups of three. Restarted and it worked fine for a few hours then did it again. Restarted and then I got about 5 mins of operation before it froze/beeped again. I then reseated the memory and reset the PRAM and SMC, which gave me a good few hours of freeze/beep free operation. Then I got the freeze beeps again, but this time with artifacts on the screen (see vid: http://youtu.be/iRJ7jUNQXno).
Googling my symptoms tells me that most people say this is a memory issue. But considering I ran fine for a few days with the new RAM vexes me. Because of that, I have a feeling it's the SSD, but I really don't know.

Sorry for not adequately reading your original post. If nothing showed up on memtest ( the same as Kelley Computing - Rember), then the modules are okay. How many walks did you perform? This isn't a RAM problem based on rereading your original post and watching that video. Yes, the start up beeps are different from randomly beeping machine already booted - the start up beeps are indication of components not passing the initial integrity check upon boot.
1) Are you booting from the optibay SSD? Did you create a fusion? If so, nix this. The SSD is meant to be in your primary bay - a SSD optibay + DIY fusion configuration is a very volitile and buggy set up.
2) I suspect there is something wrong with your logicboard based on that video and the intermittent beeps which are occuring. You could have damaged an internal component during the installation of these periphary components. The Apple Hardware Test will not reliably test your logicboard. The best chances for it to pick up any errors would be to run it 3X, back to back, extended.
3) Connect your MBP to an external display to confirm that the display is not the issue. If the same artifacts appear on the external display, your GPU is producing the artifacts.

Macbook Pro Retina 15 late 2013 won't turn on after being sleep

I've been having the an issue with my macbook pro retina 15 late 2013 that I bought 2 weeks ago. After a long time of being slept when I try to turn it on, it won't. I press the power button several times and nothing happens, after a long time of trying then it turns on. and I get the message that the machine turn off because of an error but nothing else. I think that's not ok for such an expensive laptop. I had the first version of the macbook pro retina display and never had an issue like this even though I install a lot of apps from app store and third party apps also. I was running parallels with 3 microsoft windows os and never had an issue like this. In this case I haven't installed anything on my new macbook pro besides parallels and the windows seven os. So I don't know if I should take it to the apple store maybe they could change it for another one I don't know.
Does anyone have the same problem?
sorry for my english

Well I have this problem too, do you get a message saying 'an error has occured please press a button to restart' or something similar when you just brosing the internet or watching a movie.
P.S I use safari and QT.
