Trigger Mike Posted January 8, 2019 Posted January 8, 2019 Today I turned on my apple lap top while charging it as it was at 11 percent. It came on and the mouse moved faster than normal and would not click any thing including the shut down so I closed it and it shut down but now will not come on. It is 4 years old
Trigger Mike Posted January 8, 2019 Author Posted January 8, 2019 Now the fan is running to cool itself and the plug in the computer is hot so I unplugged it and will let the battery die then try again
Cold Lake Kid, SASS # 51474 Posted January 8, 2019 Posted January 8, 2019 Disclaimer: I only know enough abut computers to be dangerous. That said: The battery itself might be the problem. If you can run the laptop without the battery in it, try that. If things work OK, you'll know for sure.
J-BAR #18287 Posted January 9, 2019 Posted January 9, 2019 Could be time for a new hard drive. My neighborhood independent computer store replaced my MacBook hard drive for about $250, much cheaper than a new computer.
Dawg Hair, SASS #29557 Posted January 9, 2019 Posted January 9, 2019 Just go stand in line for a couple of hours at the Apple store and let the Apple Geniuses take a look at it. There is usually a lot of eye candy there to help you in your wait.
Colorado Coffinmaker Posted January 9, 2019 Posted January 9, 2019 Naw. First call your local Apple store and make an appointment with the Genius Bar. Then go look at the CANDY!!!
Badlands Bob #61228 Posted January 9, 2019 Posted January 9, 2019 I went to the Apple store for a new cell phone battery. They started talking to me in a foreign language. After about the third Huh?, she finally started speaking slowly and in English.
J-BAR #18287 Posted January 9, 2019 Posted January 9, 2019 ...all of which is the reason I went to a locally owned geek store...
Dawg Hair, SASS #29557 Posted January 10, 2019 Posted January 10, 2019 But the eye candy is nice.....................I know, I'm just a dirty old man!
Trigger Mike Posted January 10, 2019 Author Posted January 10, 2019 sadly there is no apple store near me. maybe in savannah which is over an hour and a half
