MacBook Pro with the water damage...

So my best friend brought the computer geek, a year 2011? (do not know exactly what year, unibody) MacBook Pro 13 inches. He had a kind of drink spilled on it and now refuses to start. This isn't the only thing however. I managed to clean the corrosion off him, and it looks clean. I tried to turn on after that, the fan refused to turn but the CPU radiator was deadly hot. The screen or my external monitor wouldn't recognize it. The other problem is that the magsafe adapter is glitching now. She charges for a minute or two, then fades to the orange Sun, then dim green. If I plug it into my MBA, let it load for a minute, then put it back on, it does the same thing.

I unplugged RAM, DVD drive, trackpad, you name it. The only things attached are the keyboard and the fan. (also the HARD disk cable so the light of sleep will allow me I hope to know when it's on.) I have no idea what is wrong with it at this point. The real kicker is that the principal amount of corrosion was of about where the magsafe connector attaches to the main Board.

One last thing. Even when the magsafe light is dimly lit green, the status lights of battery on the service side and tell me if he is in charge.

Help, please.

It could very well be a lost cause if there is damage to the system board.

I'd give course to reconnect the RAM for general operations to run correctly.

  • You just bought a 13 "MacBook Pro with the Retina display. What are some tips you have for me to make this thing last? It's my first MacBook.

    I just bought a brand new 13 "MacBook Pro with the Retina display (no, I didn't wait for the new version of 2016). It's my first MacBook.

    I'm looking for advice on what I can to make this last as long as possible. You guys have any advice for me of past experiences or knowledge? It will be greatly appreciated!

    Don't drink near him.  A spill will ruin the MBP and not be covered by the warranty.

    Treat the battery using these instructions from Apple:

  • CS5 Design Premium and recently bought a MacBook Pro with the retina display

    I have CS5 Design Premium and recently bought a MacBook Pro with the retina display. everything seems pixelated. Question: if I buy a large external screen for use with the product Adobe will always look pixelated?

    I can't answer that question, but I can say that CS5 is is no longer being updated for the new hardware and operating systems, so as far as I know, if you buy an external with the same kind of screen 'High definition' monitor you have now, you will have the same problem

  • Flash Builder looks blurry on Macbook Pro with the retina display

    Hello

    Interface Builder Flash looks blurry on MacBook Pro with the retina display.

    Here is the screenshot:

    Enlarge the image in actual size and notice that the interface of Flash Builder looks blurry.

    Please solve this problem.

    I had the same problem - could not believe my eyes on how horrible and blurry Flash Builder looked on my new Macbook Pro w retina.  Through she had suffered since last week and have just discovered this work around that someone figured out for Eclipse that also works on Flash Builder (guess b/c it is built on Eclipse).  Here is the link to the bug report that shows the work around (thanks to Brad Hudgeons):

    https://bugs.Eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=382972

    Here is a cut and paste from the bug report in the case of the above url is deleted:

    Here's the workaround:  Do "Show package contents" on the Eclipse.app.  Edit Contents/Info.plist.  Just above     Place this:  NSHighResolutionCapable 
    

    Instead of Eclipse, display the contents of the package on Adobe Flash Builder 4.6.app.   After you change the Info.plist file, go to the Adobe Flash Builder 4.6.app and reproduce.  It will create an Adobe Flash Builder 4.6 copy.app.  Delete your original Adobe Flash Builder 4.6 and rename the Adobe Flash Builder 4.6 Adobe Flash Builder 4.6.app copy.app.  Then launch Flash Builder - you should see the text which is much clearer.  The graphics on the user interface are still unclear but at least the text should be crispy.

  • MacBook Pro with the Retina Display 2015 screen goes green? Green tint and mist?

    Hello world

    I had this problem for quite a while now. My new Macbook Pro has worked great for a year. Now, after several updates which have me Safari freezes and crashes, and saw that the supported, there is a new problem.

    Whenever I open my Macbook to sleep or completely turn it on, it has a green tint / haze to it. The above is green, the sides of the screen are green. However, it disappears after 10 minutes. At the moment it is perfectly fine. The screen is the perfect color, it should be.

    Why does this happen?

    I have not dropped, spilled coffee or something like that. Sometimes I slide it clean with a cloth Microfiber, but very gently.

  • Is it possible to sync with Macbook Pro with the iMac at home? If so, how?

    Most of the time, I need to exchange the data in my folder of documents between the iMac and Macbook Pro. I use a pen drive to do. I need to know if this Exchange is possible without the need of USB? both iMac and Macbook pro are on the same network.

    Verdier - saab

    Yes - you can use a cloud like iCloud service or OneDrive who will be the reflection of your files - in other words - iCloud exists as folder on your devices as well as on the Apple servers. For files that work you on the MBP are synced with the Apple servers and also update on your iMac, when both machines are on and connected to the network - oh-you don't have to be connected to the same network - as long as the two devices are connected to the internet - the update will happen

  • MacBook Pro with the Retina display problem

    I put my 2013-model MacBook with Retina display to sleep and tried to turn it on the next day, but he had no answer. I've loaded and kept cool for about 8 hours, but the battery would not get full and it won't always turn. The next day, I continued to load and left for a few hours then disconnected it and in the night I tried again and quite normally on and nothing seems to be wrong! Any idea on what and why it happened?

  • Can I use my MacBook Pro with the Display 27 "Thunderbolt

    My MacMini seems to have thrown a crisis of anger with El Capitan and I need to continue my work with my 2.4 Ghz Intel Core duo MacBook Pro (2008).  I see that I can connect the two wires into the side of my MBP but an empty black screen seems to dominate with no sign of life at all.  It is likely to please?

    TBD will only work if you have TB port on your laptop.  Your laptop probably has a mini port that looks the same, but differs based on display.

  • Help... MacBook pro with the latest version of el capitan does not open creative cloud.

    After being on the phone with Adobe for more than an hour, I downloaded the creative cloud, with lightroom, photoshop and illustrator. It took about an hour to install the applications. Now my creative cloud does nothing when I click on it. It's just a blank white screen. I need to work for the school and have spent hours trying to figure it out. Help!

    Try with the steps mentioned below:

    N ° 1)

    Launch the activity monitor and force them to leave Adobe all processes as creative cloud. CoreSync, AAMUpdater... etc.

    Step 2)


    (1) right click on the Finder icon and select 'Go - To Folder' option.
    (2) you will get a text box, type in the following command and then press the 'return '. ("Not to be missed ~ symbol")

    ~/Library

    It will open the folder of the user's library.

    (3) then navigate to Application Support > Adobe > OOBE. Open the OOBE folder and Opm.db bin file.

    Once you had trashed Opm.db file, restart the Adobe Creative Cloud app and check.

    Always the same?
