Mid-14 MacBook air won't turn on

Big trouble in China little...

My MacBook air of 2014 lights.  When I plug it to the Magsafe, light amber, as if he were in charge - but I guess that's not.

The story is a bit complex. My husband and I are cycling through China, and we are weeks to be in a city with an Apple store.  We took the quick train to Hong Kong for the weekend, a couple of weeks and I plugged my computer to load.  Later this weekend, when the battery was dead, I plugged in to charge, and he left a little.  That's when he started... Or stop from where appropriate.

I took it to the Apple store in Hong Kong and they said it was probably the logic board.  For reasons of time, we have sent to a friend in Beijing who took it to an authorized service provider that works without problem, cleaned, charged for diagnosis, and they sent back.

I'll be just my computer a few hours ago.  Press the power button to make sure that things would turn out, he did, so I jumped on the charger it and we went to dinner.  When we arrived back, he would not turn back on... and that is where we are.  I did everything that Apple said to do, including resetting the SMC.

Thoughts? Questions? Advice?

I would test with another charger if available.

Ciao.

  • MacBook Air won't turn on.

    Hello

    I have a MacBook Air, which is about 1.5 years old, without any problem so far.  He began with a stop at random in the login screen.  When the computer reboots, it turned on for a few seconds then turns off.  He didn't say 'Stop' or something like that, it happened just empty.  He has been in charge for some time, and the charging light lights up on the plug that fits into the device (not on the device itself).  He won't answer any what whatsoever, no noise or anything that happens.

    I tried they hit to reset the SMC.

    Any other ideas?  It seems battery related in the way stop at random, then restarted just for a few seconds, but I don't know what else to try.  Obviously, on this model battery is not accessible.

    Thanks for any help.

    Seems you did something good troubleshooting already. Is nothing else plugged in? Just the power cord? Have recently changed anything by getting new hardware or installing software?

    Try to hold the power for 10 seconds, then press the button once more and see if the computer turns on.

    At this point, if none of this helped, maybe need to an Apple Store and see what they say.

  • Mid-2012, MacBook Air of random stop

    I tried to find a solution to more than a year. My MacBook air has been cutting randomly without warning.

    At first I thought it was overheating, so I installed Mac Fan Control and cranked up the fans, but it always stops around 60-70 ° C temperature of CPU, which should be good. The first three years, I owned the computer I never had a single problem and the fan never accelerated where she was audible 2 times.

    The error code in the log files is Cause of previous stop - 2, which I can't find a description of anywhere.

    I took the computer to the Genius Bar for a verification of the material, but the computer turns off as soon as they are trying to run the test. They wanted to change the logic board for $600 + then I said that I think about it.

    If anyone has experienced this? I can find no solution confirmed online and don't know if I have to replace the logic board or card IO first. When he died, it's like it lost power. Immediately turns off. It will not restart for at least 20 seconds, and if I turn on for a few minutes it turns off again before moving on to the screen. However, it will work perfectly sometimes for up to an hour or two.

    The computer was pampered life whole and never dropped or spilled on. Looking inside, it looks fine, but tbh I don't know what I would look for.

    If anyone has any ideas at all, I'd like to hear them. It's a mid 2012 Air i5 with 4 GB of RAM.

    EDIT: Also, I did the resets of SCM, this does not solve the problem.

  • Mid-2015 MacBook Pro won't start every 2 weeks, need to restore from a backup.

    Hello all, big problem, Apple says that it is not material (although I'm not sure), but if not, then there must be some sort of conflict between my installed software and the new model of MacBook Pro mid-2015. Help!

    The problem here is that I've been running EXACTLY the same configuration on a MacBook Pro 2012 since, well, 2012, without any problem. But when I received the new machine in December, I migrated everything on (using Migration Assistant), I have installed a Bootcamp partition, migrated my old installation of Windows on the use of WinClone, and everything was fine for about 2 weeks. This is the same process as I did when I upgraded the machine from 2009 to 2012 also machine well.

    Suddenly one day, starting from Windows to Mac OS, I watched the progress bar filling, then stop, then the screen went black. No sound, nothing. I hit the power button and the same sequence. Progress bar about 3/4 of way filled, on the screen then black, then the unit turns off.

    I called Apple, went to two Apple stores, and we all tried to run disk utility to fix the problem. But every time I find myself with a message "Invalid node structure. The volume could not be completely checked. File system check exit code 8. Updated scores of start-up of the volume as required. File system check or repair a failure. Operation failed... "The topic on this bed,"first aid process has failed, if possible, back up the data on this volume. »

    The idea of first re - install the operating system didn't work... apparently there was a problem with the volume at this point so he would not restore. The next option was to completely erase the partition and then restore the backup. That worked, but then the entire process repeated two weeks later.

    I have been through this process 7 ~ 8 times since December! It seems to happen every two weeks and no one can tell me why it's happening on this new machine, but I have NOT had the problem on the old machine running the same configuration.


    Apple said it might have something to do with execution Tuxera NTFS on Mac (if I can share documents across side Windows). I have not removed... Tuxera two restorations there is no change.

    I also use Paragon HFS + for Windows, because most of my material is actually stored on the Mac side. I have NOT yet removed this (current running Windows 10) because I have NO idea why or how something running on the Windows side could affect the operating system volume on the side of Mac... especially when everything I do is opening and closing things as Word documents.

    I have log files and screenshots (I write below a few... but there are many others). Apple says "it is not a hardware problem" so they won't have to help understand if it's just software. I beg the community to help!

    Here's what I new material:

    MacBook Pro (retina, 15 inch, mid-2015)

    Intel Core i7 2.8 GHz

    16 GB 1600 MHz DDR3

    AMD Radeon R9 M370X 2048 MB

    This graphics card is the NEW one, first, that I do business with AMD

    My OLD machine is:

    MacBook Pro (15-inch, mid-2012)

    Intel Core i7 2.7 GHz

    16 GB 1600 MHz DDR3

    Intel HD Graphics 4000 1536 MB

    Any help or ideas are appreciated!

    Suddenly one day, starting from Windows to Mac OS, I watched the progress bar filling, then stop, then the screen went black. No sound, nothing. I hit the power button and the same sequence. Progress bar about 3/4 of way filled, on the screen then black, then the unit turns off.

    This occurs when the drive Boot CAN get the initial Blob of the software off the drive with the boot loader, but when he tried to mount the disk with the file system, it can not be mounted. It runs a single past of [essential] disk first aid. If the drive cannot be mounted, your Mac can not do something useful, he died.

    If the problem could not be fixed quickly, you should have been advised to REPLACE this hard drive.

    This is what you need to do now and stop wasting your time. A new drive costs less than $ 100 and will solve your problems.

    Hello

    You most likely need a replacement battery for your Macbook. You can bring to an Apple Store and ask them to replace the battery. If you have Applecare, it should be free. They can also do it for free if there is no visible damage to the product (think it's a manufacturing defect). You can request the service directly from Apple or a local Apple authorized service provider.

    You can go here for more information in the center of Apple - Support - response Service

    This panic was not caused by a third-party software. If the problem recurs, the possibilities are:

    1. A stale or corrupt kernel cache
    2. A damaged OS x installation
    3. A flaw in a device, if applicable
    4. Corrupt the nonvolatile memory (NVRAM)
    5. Internal hardware failure (including incompatible memory)
    6. Obscure bug in OS X

    You can already have excluded some of them.

    Rule # 1 by starting in safe mode , then restart as usual. Note: If FileVault is enabled in OS X 10.9 or an earlier version, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a Fusion drive or a software RAID, you can not do this. Ask for additional instructions.

    You can exclude #2 and #3 in reinstalling the operating system and tests with non-essential devices disconnected and removed aftermarket expansion cards, if any. Sometimes a clean reinstall may solve a problem which is not resolved by reinstalling in place.

    Corrupt the PRAM, which causes panic from time to time, may be excluded in resetting it.

    If your model has replaceable memory by the user and you have upgraded modules of memory, reinstall the original memory and see if there is any improvement. Make sure not to touch the Gold contacts. Clean them with a mild solvent such as rubbing alcohol. Spare memory must exactly match the technical specifications of the machine.

    Apple diagnostics or the Apple Hardware Test, as generally unreliable, sometimes detects a fault. A negative test may not be depended on. Run the long version of the test, if necessary.

    More than a screen connected is another trigger for OS X bugs reported.

    In the category of obscure bugs, damage the data on a file server, such as a Time Capsule backup - can sometimes trigger a panic. If necessary, remove all the network devices and see if the panic stop. If you use Time Machine, disable it temporarily in its preference pane.

    Otherwise, an appointment of 'Genius' in an Apple Store, or switch to a different service provider authorized to have the tested machine. You may need to leave for several days. He is not much of interest to do this, unless you can reproduce the panic, or if you can't, it happens quite often that he is likely to be repeated at the store. Otherwise, you can be said that everything is fine.

    Print the first page of the report panic and take it with you.

  • Fan runs almost always since the installation of Sierra and MacBook Air running Mac OS.

    Hello

    Since upgrading to Mac OS Sierra last night on my MacBook Air (2013, i7, 8gbRAM), fans work almost always, even when I use Safari.  Previously, the fans would go only when I was playing a game, or video edition.  The basis of my Macbook Air is also much more hot he was under El Capitan - once again, just when you use Safari.  As a result, my battery life is horrible - dropped from 100% to 23% in a little over an hour.  Once again, under El Capitan, if I was just using internet, use of an hour would see the maximum of 10 to 15% of decline in battery.

    I turned off my Macbook Air and it turned on again after fifteen minutes, but in 10-15 minutes, fans revived upward and the base (and the top of the keyboard) heated again.  No uncomfortable levels, but certainly noticeable levels.

    Just to remind - I use Safari only when this happens.  Moreover, since the beginning of this question five minutes ago, the % of battery has dropped from 29 percent to 22 percent and the fans are still whirring like the dickens.

    No idea why this is happening?
