Won't start or charge

Hi,
I'm a very frustrated customer. I got the adobe ink and slide a month ago and right out of the box it began having some trouble charging. About a week in, the ink has stopped charging and turning on completely. It's really hard to find support as Adobe Ink and Slide isn't an option in your phone tech support call and for any hardware related issues your chat system recommends I call in. I ended up choosing a different issue so I can get in touch with someone on chat. During the chat, the associate keeps giving me numbers that connected me with other products and not support for Ink and Slide resulting in a lot of call transfers. I finally got in contact with someone who opened a ticket for the issue and said that they will follow up with me in a couple of business days. A whole week went by and I had to call back in. I talked to another associate who said that they'll open another ticket for the issue and follow up with me. It's now been over 2 weeks and I have not heard back. I paid $200 for this product and I haven't been able to properly use it since. It's been a month and I haven't been given any tech support or means to replace my defective product. Can I get in direct contact with someone so that I can get progress updates or confirmation on my status? I really want to use my ink and stylus and this is extremely frustrating.

Hi, I did a search for this problem and found this thread. I'm having a similar issue. I just received the product today. I unboxed it, tried to turn it on and it wouldn't turn on. I tried charging it; the led indicated it was charged; still won't power on. Unless I'm doing something wrong, the product seems to be DOA. I was really looking forward to using this product, but this is not encouraging.
Please advise.

C3-01 won't start after charging

I'm so angry right now but I will try and be cool about this!
I bought C3-01 mobile phone about four months ago and it is already causing me problems.
The mobile phone simply won’t start after charging. Last time i charged it, it miraculously came to life only, and only after annoying me for about hour and a half. Now I fear it is completely dead!
Battery was not completely empty so the phone should still start even if the wall socket is broken. Which is not, wall socket works perfectly.
Nothing helps! I tried removing the battery and then restart. Removing the battery then removing the sim card, memory card and that piece of “advanced technology” simply won’t start!
I didn’t buy my new phone so that I can use my old Motorola mobile, which btw., still works after 4 years of intense usage.
I will never buy Nokia again!

Hi,
Sorry to hear that your phone is not starting after charging.
I would suggest one more thing, which maybe helps. If you have another battery, please try.
If not, i would recommend to visit Nokia Care Point in your area.
To find your nearest Nokia Care Point, visit http://www.nokia.com/support and select the Repair page.

IPad I won't start or charge

I pad will not start or charge. Unable to get it to restore mode. When holding sleep and home button, only apple logo. Plug into charger, the dead battery indicator comes on after few seconds, then goes to apple screen. Still wont restart.

Same as me ,seems like we are the only ones in because I have posted many relating to this issue questions and it seems it is being fugded, I have I pad 2 and I wish I had never updated or up graded it or it could be the cold though.

Laptop won't start without charger!! (battery fully charged but worthless)

My Macbook Pro won't turn on unless its plugged into the charger. If I turn it on without it being plugged in, it'll begin starting up, then immediatly shut down (the battery is fully charged). Does anyone know how to fix this problem? It's really getting me worried!!

I updated it about two to three times and would still experience the same problem.
Why update 3 times?!? If you run an update, and it installs normally, that it - done!
There's a world of difference between running BatteryUpdate 1.2 and installing a new battery. In fact, if you read the linked page above, it states that the after you run battery update if you experience any of the listed problems you should contact AppleCare. Their first step will be to replace the battery. Could it be a logic board problem? Sure. Is that the first thing they'll do? No. By that reasoning, the first thing to try if your car fails to start on a cold morning is to put in a new engine...
So, to the OP, contact Apple - or better yet, if it's convenient, go in to an Apple Store. Get a new battery. If the problem persists, go from there. The advantage of taking it into a Store is that they'll test it on the spot.

IBook Won't Start Or Charge, Is It Worth It To Fix Or Get New Comp?

I bought my iBook 12" G4 mid 2005 as a HS graduation present for college, I knew that they had problems with the power cables so when the first one that came with the laptop broke I forked over the $80 and got a new one. I had it maybe a month and now the power adaptor IN the laptop won't receive any power from the cable, therefore not charging the battery. I tried the PMU restart thing but that obviously didn't work and I know it isn't the new cable because the light still turns orange, so I was wondering...
How much is it to send it to Apple to have them fix it? And is it even worth it or should I just go buy a new laptop?
iBook G4 Mac OS X (10.4)
iBook G4 Mac OS X (10.4)
iBook G4 Mac OS X (10.4)

Can you get to an Apple Store? Or an authorized repair store? A good place to start would be to see if you can get a free estimate. If your computer is working well otherwise, it's probably worth a little money to fix it. Did you get Applecare? If so, the repair should be free.
Also, if you have a friend with an iBook, try their power cable to be sure that it's the iBook and not the cable--even a new cable could be defective. If you go in to get the iBook checked, carry in the power cable too.
Good luck!

Computer won't start or charge

It won't charge or start even though the light showing that it's charging is on. It's been acting up for about a month where sometimes it would turn on other times it wouldn't but now nothing for like a week. I have done a hard reset, with no change. Any help would be lovely.

Have you tried performing a power drain yet?
Steps to perform a Power Drain:
1. Disconnect the AC Adapter.[charger]
2. Remove the Battery.
3. Hold the Power button down for 30 seconds. [with no power source or peripheral connected]
4. Reconnect the AC adapter without connecting the battery.
5. Switch ON the Notebook power and check if the fault persists.
Have you noticed any other lights on your PC?
What happens if you press or tap on the caps lock key? Does the caps lock light respond if you press the key a few times after powering ON the PC.
Can you hear the Notebook cooling fan spinning?

Macbook won't start or charge unless I disconnect and reconnect the battery connector each time .

I have a late 2011 model Macbook Pro, 10.7.5 OS and I've had no issues whatsoever up until a week ago. The night before if stopped working I did everything as usual, did some HW, emailing then I shut it down. I woke up the next morning and it wouldn't turn on so I figured it was dead, so I got my charger plugged it in and got no light, green or orange. What I got was a faint green blinking on the charger light and my battery level indicator wasn't working. I thought it was my charger but it wasn't because worked fine on my girlfriend's Macbook.
I googled and tried PRAM and SMC to no avail. When I tried the SMC I didn't take the battery out I just disconnected the connector (Don't know if it makes a difference) and Voila it worked and I thought I fixed the problem. I turned it off and the next day the same thing, I have to disconnect and reconnect the battery connector each time for it work. Other than this issue I have no problems, mac runs fine while it's on and I shut it down or restart it for awhile after I reconnected the battery but if I try to turn it back on or restart it hours after I've done that then it won't work . One thing I may add is after I reconnect and plug my charger in, the light is green for about 5 seconds (even though it's not fully charged) then turns orange .
I'm guessing I need a new battery or logic board , but I'll keep my fingers crossed .
I won't be able to set up an appointment until next week but I would like to see if I could get any help here in in the meanwhile.
Thanks !

Hi, I dont know if this may be the cause as i too have the same problem. But it only occurs after i disconnect my Iphone from my macbook pro.
The Macbook has worked perfectly and then all of a sudden last week it started to shut down after i would disconnect my Iphone 5.
The mac wouldn't restart, charge or anything.
I tried all the trouble shooting reccommended, Shift Alt command button combinations. ( there were a fair few ) None worked.
Then i found out about disconnecting the connector.
This fixed the problem.
But alas, It done it again after my next sync.
This has done it 4 times now. And only when i disconnect the iphone after using itunes on the mac. I done it all correctly 3 times and the 4th time i just pulled it out with out ejecting from itunes, but still done it.
The iphone Syncs perfectly. I get everything i want onto the iphone. But for some reason as soon as the cord is disconnected from the mac BOOM. Dead mac.
If i leave the cord and the phone plugged in but still eject the phone it doesnt shutdown tho.
I found if i shutdown the macbook, then disconnect the iphone cord once the mac is completely shut down then my mac will start back up again with no problems.
As i said i dont know if this is the cause of your problem and if it will help you or not? But if not, maybe it will help someone else out who finds your post?
Hope you get your problem sorted

Macbook air won't start without charger if powered off for at least 5 hours.

Hi,
I have macbook air and it doesn't turn on if I shutdown it for at least 5 hours and next time I need to start i have to plug the charger just one time after that It starts and can be used for whole day.
I am not sure what the problem is I charger battery to 90% before shutting it down.
Yes my battery cycles are too much. Details are :
Health Information: Battery cycles : 785
Condition : Normal

Hi there abhishekgahlot,
You may want to try resetting the SMC as an initial troubleshooting step. Additionally, take a look at the battery condition. The articles below have more information.

Verify charging function to ensure unit is working normally
This is not the same as the factory reset option, and should not affect data.
If the issue remains after upgrading to this release or a newer one, please contact Lenovo Service for support.

I have the same problem with my B8000 Yoga 10' tablet in that after charging it overnight with the supplied charger, it now boots only as far as the Lenovo screen. If you hold the power button in for several seconds it will turn off and when plugged into the charger it shows only an empty battery. I have tried various USB chargers with the same outcome.I also went into the system settings by holding the power and volume buttons simultaneously for a few seconds and found no options under system repair, only the symbol of an android lying on its back, so that's not a lot of use.This unit is still under warranty. Are there any other suggestions for a cure to this problem before I'm forced to send it back.

My iPod touch won't start up/charge/sync

on what i think is the ipod touch 3rd gen (if that helps) when i plug it into my laptop the black screen with the apple sign comes up as if it were to start up as normal, however it just stays on that same screen for as long as it's plugged in, it then says it has no power, also it my itunes also doesnt 'see' my ipod, HELP?

To get iTunes to see the iPod try:
- A reset.
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Place the iPod in recovery mode. For recovery mode:
iPhone and iPod touch: Unable to update or restore
- Try DFU mode

IPhone 5 won't start or charge or turn on and was not dropped recently and the power button has never worked

My iPhone 5 was not dropped recently however I went to use it and the screen was black, I plugged it in and nothing happened. When you call it it goes right to voicemail. The power button on it has never worked it always turns on when plugged in... Any ideas?

Are you certain that the battery has not run out? Have you kept it plugged into a wall outlet for at least 30 minutes to see if it is just needing to be charged?
If it does not come on after being plugged in for 30 minutes or so, then without a functional Power button you cannot reset it, so you are going to have to try to put it into Recovery mode and restore it:
If you can't update or restore your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
You may not even be able to do this since you cannot proactively turn it off, but you can try.

PB G4 won't start or charge.

A week ago, my power adapter broke, and then my Powerbook died. So, naturally, I just leave it alone, and set it on my desk for around 5 days. Last night, I went to my friend's place, who has the same computer model as me, and used his charger, and left it plugged in for an hour and a half continuously, but it still wouldn't power on. The light on the adapter stayed orange the whole time. I ordered a new adapter, do I just need to leave it plugged in for longer, or do I have a battery problem?
Thanks.

Welcome to the Apple discussions.
You may need to leave the charger in longer, as the battery was discharged.
When the charging circuit acts up, it's typically one of 3 components: the power adaptor (which will be new for you), the battery, or the logic board. The hardware test, below, covers the logic board.
To run the Apple hardware test, insert the OS X DVD that came with your system (It will say "AHT Version x.x" in small print on the DVD), reboot holding the option key down, choose Apple hardware test, and see if it points anything out.
If you haven't already, you should read this article on the PB battery: http://www.apple.com/batteries/notebooks.html Note Apple says a properly maintained battery should retain 80% of it's charge after 300 charge/discharge cycles. If you have Tiger, you can see it's state by clicking on the blue apple, about this mac, more information, power and look at battery information.
