Why won't my mac turn back on?
I have been searching for a while now, but nothing is even close to what happened for me. I was using my computer, macbook pro running mavericks. I had a usb cable that was plugged into my computer, and i got the famous "USB using too much power....." error. I figured it was something dealing with the cable, so i unplugged it, and then a few minutes later my computer shut down in the monitor part. I was confused, and tried pressing the power button a few times, and holding it down and everything. I closed the lid, to see if the display on it would "reset" and turn back on, but instead the computer completely shut off. It has been at least 45 min, and the computer will not turn back on. The charger doesn't work, and the computer will not work in any way. Can somebody tell me what has happened? Do I need to take it to apple? Or is there something I can do?
When you press the power button, does your Mac produce the startup chime?
If not, that indicates failure of POST ( Power On Self Test ). This is usually caused by a hardware failure.
Take it to the Apple Store and ask them to check it out.

My mac decided not to turn on. The light is green but it won't turn on. Could this be my battery?
Take it to an Apple store or AASP.

Why won't my MAC recognize a DVD with JPG...HELP!!!
I have received 3 different DVD's from this photographer in an effort for me to be able to view my pictures. None of them work!! She has now given me a cd and it works fine!?!!? Why won't my Mac recognize the DVDs??
A friend of mine turns out a lot of DVD's for and organization that he does photo work for and he has found
that burning DVD + or - can make a diferance along with the age of the player and he has gone back to
burning them at the slowest speed possible. (people in the organization sends him old pictures that he fixes
then burnes a DVD for them and returnes the pictures and DVD.)

Why won't my Mac Pro load things without locking up ?
Why won't my Mac Pro load things or let me do a "save as" without locking up ? I have tried to run the Apple Hardware Test and it locks up as well.
you have anitebook in forum for 65lbs towers
youneed to repair your disk directory or erase and restore
and use Recovery Mode in 10.7 and later
AHT does not lick up, not unless your laptop RAM or mobo has failed totally and died, more common for laptops that overheat, sufferwater damage, but still...
depends on how new what to do, might try macbookmpro forum. -
Why won't my mac internal microphone work?
Why won't my mac internal microphone work?
I just found and removed a small piece of sticky tape which was covering the mic. The mic is on the top surface of a mac - you can only just see a lighter coloured small round circle in line with the camera on the top narrow surface. My problem was sorted despite all other help and just before I gave up. Check no-one has posted a sticky message, camera cover or even an ornament over your mic. How many folk know where the mic is?

Why won't my Mac with Mt Lion update my calendar and address book through iCloud
Why won't my Mac w Mt Lion update mt Calendar and Address book through the Icloud?
Are you really still running Snow Leopard (10.6.8) as shown in your profile? If so, that's why. Full use of iCloud needs at least Lion 10.7.2 or Mountain Lion.
If you have upgraded to Mountain Lion and forgot to update your profile, here are some things to check:
Is it on a network?
Is it signed into iCloud? The same iCloud Account?
Are Contacts and "Calendars & Reminders" checked in the iCloud and same account's "Mail, Contacts & Calendars" panels of System Preferences?
Are you looking at the correct accounts in Calendar and Contacts? -
Why won't my Mac Pro go to sleep?
Why won't my Mac Pro go to sleep?
Hi X,
I've been having the same problem of mac pro not going to sleep. I think its to do with some universal audio drivers installed with a recent hardware interface I've added.
the terminal app in response to above line reads;
com.uaudio.driver.UAD2System(6.3.1)
com.uaudio.driver.UAFWAudio(4.0.0
com.digidesign.iokit.DigiDal(9.0.6f4)
com.paceap.kext.pacesupport.snowleopard(5.8)
launch agents (in user)
com.adobe.ARM.202f4087f2bbde52e3ac2df389f53a4f123223c9cc56a8fd83a6f7ae.plist
com.apple.FolderActions.enabled.plist
com.apple.FolderActions.folders.plist
com.google.keystone.agent.plist
launch agents and daemons - too many to list
any idea from this or would you need to see all the files you listed in Mona Gorillas query?
appreciate your input -
Why won't my Mac Pro sleep after Lion is installed?
Why won't my Mac Pro sleep after Lion is installed?
Tell us, what hardware add ons?
old software? that required PowerPC/Rosetta maybe.
Look for any apps, process that used powerpc and look for updates, check out RoaringApps for a table of Lion compatible programs
does it happen iwth a clean install?
how about if you do a Safe Boot? -
Why won't my Mac recognize Verbatim Dual Layer blank DVDs?
Why won't my Mac recognize Verbatim Dual Layer blank DVDs?
I've just completed a 140 minute project in FCP. I've encoded an MPEG2 file that is 5.75GB in size. Brought into DVDSP and am trying to burn the DVD.
I have Final Cut Studio 1, latest updates and everything.
Because of the 5.75GB size I need to burn to Dual Layer DVD. I have Verbatim 4x 8.56GB dual layer DVDs.
When I click buld/burn and pop in a dual layer DVD I get an error saying "please insert compatible disc".
Even with every app closed. If I put one of these DVDs in my Mac it simply spits it out after about 20 seconds.
For some reason the Mac won't handle or understand these Dual Layer DVDs.
I bought this Mac Pro about 4 months ago and it is the 2 x 2.66Ghz Dual Core Intel Xeon machine and the DVD drive (according to system profiler) is a Pioneer DVD-RW DVD-111D. In system profiler it says "Pioneer DVD-RW DVD-111D"
Can anyone tell me if this DVD player is actually capable of dual layer, or do I need to buy one.
In System Profiler under Revision it says: AB09 and under Protocol it says: ATAPI
Can anyone advise please?If you have access to a pc into which you can install the 112, or if you have bootcamp, you can replace the Apple supplied firmware with Pioneer firmware. This should restore full functionality to the drive. The latest Pioneer firmware for the drive is version 1.21 and can be found here: http://www.cdrinfo.com/Sections/Firmware/SingleModel.aspx?DriveId=1426
