MacBook Pro Dead and Not Turning on? Quick and Easy Fixes

June 23, 2023

Experiencing a dead MacBook Pro or a stubborn black screen can be incredibly frustrating. But fear not, as we have some quick and easy fixes to help you. While Apple’s MacBook Pro is known for its top-notch performance, it occasionally encounters issues. Here are some professional tips to address the problem and get your MacBook Pro back on track.

There can be various reasons why your MacBook Pro won’t turn on. It could be due to a damaged power adapter, a faulty charging cable, or software and hardware problems. Let’s explore the possibilities and find solutions to resolve the issue.

Firstly, check the charging cable and adapter to ensure they are correctly connected and undamaged. A faulty cable can affect charging and cause further damage. If that’s not the issue, try resetting the System Management Controller (SMC) by pressing Shift + Ctrl + Option/Alt keys and the power button simultaneously.

Another solution is to reset the Parameter RAM (PRAM) or Non-volatile Random-Access Memory (NVRAM). Hold down the Command, Option, P, and R keys while turning on the MacBook Pro to reset these settings.

If your MacBook Pro is stuck on a white, blue, or grey screen, boot into Recovery Mode and run Disk Utility’s First Aid to fix any disk errors. Also, make sure your MacBook Pro has the latest macOS updates installed.

Disconnect any external devices like USB drives, printers, or displays and attempt to turn on your MacBook Pro again, as specific devices may cause startup issues.

If none of these solutions works, contacting a reliable MacBook repair centre for assistance is recommended. They can diagnose and fix more complex issues, especially those related to the motherboard.
