My MBP 2013 edition is dead. Won't start. Power cable light is on. Worked fine yesterday. Help me Twitter, you're my only hope.
Me right now...
OMG it's alive! You'll never believe how I solved it ->
So I was trying an SMC reset to no avail. I was already looking at booking a time slot at the Apple Store Genius Bar. >
@axbom > Then I remembered a list of the things that the SMC resets. One of them being how the computer reacts to opening the screen/lid. >
> Apparently the controller for how the computer switches on when you lift the lid can be somewhat "buggy" >
> So I pushed the screen/lid back into it's most extreme position. And hit the power button. Boom. The computer powers up! >
@axbom > All this after trying everything in the support forums. I love having a brain that rejoices in lateral thinking. 😝 Now move along.
Also I'm glad I read and process information. 🤓
