Kumbuyuutarrada Apple Mac^{(Apple Mac)} badanaa waa dhagax-adag marka ay timaaddo isku halaynta, laakiin mararka qaarkood waxaad riixdaa badhanka awoodda oo aad hesho wax aan ahayn muraayad madow! Waxaa laga yaabaa in Mac -gaagu uu shido, laakiin ma heli kartid in uu galo OS-ka. Haddii aadan awoodin in Mac -gaagu uu shido ama kabo macOS , halkan waxaa ah tillaabooyin aad raaci karto si aad dib ugu soo noqoto ganacsiga.

1. Samee Wareega Awoodda Qasabka ah

Macs ma laha koronto jidheed oo isku xidha ama ka saarta socodka korontada. Waa badhanka u soo diraya tilmaamaha kumbiyuutarka si uu u damiyo, u shido, ama u seexdo.

Mac^(Macs) -yada mararka qaarkood waxay ku xayiran karaan xaalad halkaas oo signalka korontada ku shaqeeya la iska indhatiray, laakiin waxaa jira badbaado la'aan lagu dhisay taas oo ah in nidaamka uu shido (ama xiro) xaaladaha intooda badan. Waxa kaliya ee ay tahay inaad sameyso waa inaad riixdo oo hayso badhanka awoodda ugu yaraan 10 ilbiriqsi, markaas ka dib Macku^(Mac) wuxuu ku qasbi doonaa inuu damiyo ama shido, iyadoo ku xiran xaaladda hadda.

Ka soo qaad^(Suppose) inaad aragto astaanta Apple . Hambalyo! Mac kaaga hadda waa daaran yahay, laakiin waxa laga yaabaa inaad weli la kulanto dhibaatooyin bilow ah oo dheeraad ah.

2. Baro Astaamaha Cilada Bilowga ah

Haddii Mac -gaagu shidmo laakiin aanu ku xidhin shaashadda gelitaanka macOS, waxay u badan tahay inaad la kulanto nooc dhibaato ah. Waxaa lagu tusi doonaa calaamad qalad ah oo tilmaamaya dhibaatooyin gaar ah inta badan.

Waxaad eegaysaa calaamada mamnuuca ah haddii aad aragto goobaabin leh oo dhex yaal. Waxaas oo dhan waxay ka dhigan tahay in nooca macOS ee ku yaala diskka adag ee Macagu isku^(Mac) dayayo in uu ka soo bilaabo uu leeyahay nooca macOS oo aan ku habboonayn Mac -ga su'aasha. Tani waxay badanaa dhacdaa marka aad beddesho darawallada adag ama aad ku rakibtay darawal labaad kaas oo Mac si khalad ah isku dayo inuu kabo.

Calaamadda su'aasha waxay la macno tahay in Hard Disk-gaagu aanu ku lahayn macOS ama in Mac -gaagu aanu si fudud u arki karin. Hubi in dariiqa adagi uu si sax ah ugu xidhan yahay (haddii ay khusayso) ama dib u eeg Dookhyadaada Disk^{(Startup Disk Preferences)} -ga Bilowga ah, kaas oo aanu hoos ku dabooli doono.

Haddii aad aragto summada qufulka, waxay la macno tahay in Mac -gani leeyahay furaha sirta ah. Waxa kaliya oo aad arki doontaa tan haddii aad isku dayayso inaad kor u qaaddo adigoo isticmaalaya darawal dibadeed. Waa inaad waydiisaa qofkasta oo dejinaya erayga sirta ah inuu kuu geliyo ama kuu sheego waxa uu yahay. Sidoo kale, waxaad arki kartaa nidaamka qufulka PIN code, taas oo macnaheedu yahay in Mac ayaa meel fog laga xiray oo u baahan koodka sirta ah.

3. Isku day inaad Mac ku bilawdo qaab badbaado leh^{(Safe Mode)}

Waxaa jira qaab badbaado^{(Safe Mode)} leh oo macOS ah oo aad ku geli karto haddii Mac -gaagu shidan yahay laakiin aanu dhamaystirin bilawgiisa ilaa iyo inta aad gasho ama desktop-ka. Habka badbaadada^{(Safe Mode)} leh waa qaab xaddidan oo ku jira macOS kaasoo kaliya ku raraya waxyaabaha daruuriga ah. Isticmaalka qalabka Mac si aad u xalliso nidaamkaaga ama u soo celiso kaydka Mashiinka Time^{(Time Machine)} -ka markii uu kombuyuutarku si sax ah u shaqaynayay ayaa waxtar leh. Waxa kale oo aad tirtiri kartaa abka kasta oo laga yaabo in ay arrimaha keenaan.

Dhaqdhaqaaqa Habka Badbaadada^{(Safe Mode)} ah sidoo kale si toos ah ayuu u nadiifiyaa macOS caches, markaa waxaa laga yaabaa inaadan wax ka qaban si aad u xalliso arrintaada. Kaliya^(Just) dib u bilow Mac -gaaga ka dib markaad ku jirto qaab nabdoon, iyo haddii dhibaatadu ay la xiriirto khasnado, waa inay mar kale shaqeyso.

Ku biirista Habka Badbaadada^{(Safe Mode)} ah way ka duwan tahay iyadoo ku xidhan haddii aad haysato mid ka mid ah Macs-yada cusub ee Apple Silicon^{(Apple Silicon Macs)} iyo haddii kale.

Tani waxay sidoo kale faa'iido leedahay markaad macOS ka soo qaadato darawal dibadda ah^{(boot macOS from an external drive)} .

6. Ku dallac baytarigaaga!

Haddii aad arrintan ku haysato MacBook , waxaad marka hore rabi doontaa inaad ku xidhid korantada oo aad hubiso inuu jiro lacag ku filan^{(enough charge)} batteriga si aad u bilowdo nidaamka. Haddii aan Macbook -gaaga lagu dallacin wakhti aad u dheer, korantada batteriga ayaa laga yaabaa inuu hoos u dhacay si uu uga hortago bilaabista. 

Haddii aad aragto calaamadda dallacaadda ayaa soo baxaysa marka aad koronto ku xirto, markaa waad fiicantahay inaad tagto. Kaliya sii wakhti yar oo isku day markale. Haddi aanay wax shaashada ka soo bixin, weli ha niyad jabin. Sii nus saac ama wax ka badan marka lagu xiro oo haddii aadan weli wax jawaab ah ka helin nidaamka, u gudub tillaabooyinka kale ee cilad-raadinta.

7. Baadh oo Tijaabi Fiilada ^{(Test Your Charger)}Korontada ku dalacaysa^{(Power Cable)}

Marka la isticmaalo MacBooks sida MacBookga^{(MacBook Air)} ama MacBook Pro , dallacadu waxay ku dhacdaa iyadoo la isticmaalayo fiilada USB-C iyo charger. Waxa aanu dhibaato kala kulanay xadhkaha Apple ka hor inta aan la soo bandhigin xidhidhiyeyaasha jaban iyo kuwa jaban, markaa iska hubi xadhkaha korantada si aad u hubiso in ay wali ku jirto hal gabal.

Ku tijaabi fiilada MacBookgaaga^(MacBook) iyo qalabka kale ee USB-C (ama isticmaal fiilo kale iyo fiilada Mac kaaga ) si aad u xaqiijiso inay si fiican u shaqaynayaan.

8. Hubi xidhiidhka kormeerahaaga

Haddii aad isticmaalayso Mac aan lahayn qalab ku dhex-dhisan (sida Mac Mini ), iska hubi in kormeerahaagu shidmay, ku xidhan yahay, oo uu si sax ah u shaqeeyo. Waxaa laga yaabaa inaysan jirin wax qalad ah oo ku saabsan Mac -gaaga gabi ahaanba, si fudud wax u dhexeeya Mac iyo kormeeraha kaas oo khaldamay.

Xitaa haddii aad leedahay MacBook ama iMac oo leh shaashad isku dhafan, isku day inaad ku xirto bandhig dibadda ah, haddii ay dhacdo in dhibaatada dhabta ah ay tahay in muraayadda ku dhex jirta ay dhimatay!

9. Isku day Deked kale oo Thunderbolt ah

MacBooks waxay ka dalaci karaan dekedooda Thunderbolt . Isku day mid ka duwan dekedda aad inta badan isticmaasho haddii ay wax ka khaldan yihiin. Haddii aad haysato nooc MacBook ah oo leh dekedo ku yaal labada dhinac ee midig iyo bidix ee kombiyuutarka, ku xidh xadhigga korantada ee labada dhinac mar haddii dekedo kasta ay wadaagaan kontaroole madaxbannaan. 

Haddii mid ka mid ah dekedahaagu dhinto, waxaad weli u baahan doontaa inaad u soo dirto Mac -gaaga kormeer iyo dayactir, laakiin ugu yaraan haddii aad awood u yeelan karto, waxaad haysataa fursad aad ku kaydiso xogtaada.

10. Ka saar USB-C Dock -kaaga iyo Agabkaga

Haddii aad ku dhex wadeyso awoodda Buugaaga Mac^(Mac) USB-C dock ama adabtarada marka hore, ka saar barta-xidhka isla'egta maadaama laga yaabo inay khalad tahay oo ka ilaali in korontadu gasho Mac . Haddii Mac -gaagu aanu wali ku bilaabin meesha laga saaro, taasi malaha dhibku maaha.

Marka laga reebo bar-xidhka, ka saar qalabyada kale ee aadan si adag ugu baahnayn inaad ku shaqeyso Mac -gaaga , si aad 100% u hubiso inaysan ahayn mid ka mid ah qalabkaaga ku lifaaqan oo keenaya arrin.

11. Dib u deji PRAM & SMC

PRAM ama Parameter RAM waa aagga kaydinta ee Mac -gaagu ku kaydiyo dejimaha xakamaynta. PRAM waxay la mid tahay NVRAM ( RAM aan isbedbedelin ), kaasoo xajiya macluumaadka xitaa marka la damiyo. Haddii macluumaadkaas la kharribmay ama haddii kale khaldan yahay, waxa laga yaabaa inay ka ilaaliso nidaamkaaga inuu bilaabo.

Xakamaynta Maareynta Nidaamku^{(System Management Controller)} waa nidaamka hoose ee Mac -gaaga kaas oo maamula nidaamyada muhiimka ah sida qaboojintaada, maaraynta awooda, maaraynta batteriga, qaabka muuqaalka muuqaalka, iyo dhawr hawlo kale oo muhiim ah. Haddii SMC uu u barafoobay sabab qaar ka mid ah, Mac kaaga ma bilaabi doono ama ma muujin doono calaamadaha nolosha.

Akhbaarta wanaagsan ayaa ah in ay jiraan habab dib loogu dajin karo hawlaha SMC iyo goobaha PRAM ee ^(PRAM)Mac kaaga . U gudub sidaad dib ugu dejin lahayd PRAM & SMC ee ^{(How To Reset PRAM & SMC On Your Mac)}Mackaaga^(Head) wixii macluumaad dheeraad ah.

12. Dib u rakib^(Reinstall) macOS adoo isticmaalaya habka soo kabashada^{(Recovery Mode)}

Haddii Mac -gaagu uu shido laakiin aanu ku xidhin macOS, waxaad isticmaali kartaa menu-ka soo kabashada si aad u hagaajiso arrimaha ama dib u rakib macOS^{(Reinstall macOS)} . Ka digtoonow inay u badan tahay inaad lumin doonto dhammaan xogta isticmaale ee ku kaydsan saxanka deegaanka. Tani waa sababta ay fikrad fiican u tahay inaad ku kaydiso dhammaan xogtaada ugu muhiimsan iCloud ama adeeg kale oo kaydinta daruuraha. Waa inaad sidoo kale dejisaa mashiinka Time^{(Time Machine)} ka hor intaadan weligaa dhibaato la kulmin.

Waxaan haynaa dhowr tilmaamood oo kaa caawin doona inaad dib u dejiso Mac -gaaga si aad u yeelato nidaam cusub oo shaqaynaya. Marka hore^(First) , hubi sida loo habeeyo MacBookgaaga adigoon lahayn sirtad^{(How To Reformat Your MacBook Without a Password)} , gaar ahaan qaybta "Reinstall MacOS". Haddii Mac -gaagu aad u qasan yahay oo aadan dib u soo celin karin nuqul cusub oo macOS ah oo ka yimid darawalka gudaha, hubi sida loo sameeyo rakibaha macOS ee USB stick^{(How To Make a macOS Installer On a USB Stick)} .

13. Ka saar baytariga

Qaar ka mid ah moodooyinka MacBookga^(MacBook) ee qadiimka ah ayaa weli leh baytariyada meesha laga saari karo. Haddii aad wali isticmaalayso mid ka mid ah buugaagtan Macbooks , waxa aad haysataa ikhtiyaarka ah in aad iska saarto batteriga oo aad hoos u dhigto badhanka korontada si aad u ogolaato in kharash kasta oo hadhay uu meesha ka baxo. Ka dib batteriga dib u celi oo isku day inaad mar kale kiciso Mac -gaaga .

14. Dib u soo geli Firmware-kaaga

Marar dhif ah, marka nidaamkaagu lumiyo awoodda inta lagu jiro cusboonaysiinta firmware-ka, ama si kale u go'ay, waxa laga yaabaa inay xumaato. Tani waxay dhab ahaantii u rogi doontaa Mac -gaaga miisaan warqad ah, laakiin dhammaan ma lumin!

Ilaa iyo inta aad haysato Apple Silicon Mac (sida M1 Macs ) ama Intel Mac oo leh qalabka amniga T2, waxaad isticmaali kartaa Mac labaad oo ku xiran internetka iyo Apple Configurator App si aad u soo celiso firmware ee Mac dhintay . Dabcan, waxaad u baahan doontaa fiilada USB si aad ugu xirto labada qalab. Thunderbolt 3 fiilooyinka ma shaqeyn doonaan.

Haddii aadan heli karin Mac labaad , waxaad dib u soo celin kartaa firmware-ka ku sameyn kartaa dukaanka dayactirka, oo ay ku jiraan dukaamada rasmiga ah ee Apple . Habka Intel iyo Apple Silicon Macs wax yar ayuu ka duwan yahay, laakiin habka guud wuxuu u shaqeeyaa sidan:

• Configurator Apple^{(Apple Configurator)} waxa lagu rakibay Mac ka shaqeeya .
• Labada kumbiyuutar waxay ku xiran yihiin fiilo USB ah.
• Kumbuyuutarkii jabay ayaa dib loo bilaabay iyadoo la isticmaalayo fure gaar ah oo la isku daray. Tani waxay ku kala duwan tahay noocyada kala duwan ee Mac .
• Configurator-ka Apple^{(Apple Configurator)} waxa loo isticmaalaa kombayutarka shaqaynaya si loo soo nooleeyo ama loo soo celiyo qalabkii kombiyuutarka ee dhibka ka jiray.

Haddii Mac -gaagu shido oo uu kabaha u xidho sidii caadiga ahayd hawshan ka dib, waa inaad ahaataa mid guriga ka xor ah!

15. Waa Dhintay Jim : Dayactirka Gaarka ah^{(Private Repair)} ama Bedelka Damaanada^{(Warranty Replacement)}

Haddii laptop-kaaga ama desktop-ka Mac -gaagu aanu shidi doonin wax kasta oo aad isku daydo, waa waqtigii aad heli lahayd caawimo xirfadle ah. Mac- yada^(Macs) casriga ah , marka qayb muhiim ah, sida korontadu ay xumaato, ma jirto si loo beddelo hal qayb ilaa aad haysato qalabka casriga ah iyo aqoonta loo baahan yahay si loo helo loona hagaajiyo qaybahaas.

Haddii Mac -gaagu wali ku jiro dammaanad, doorashadaadu waa sahlan tahay. U soo dir Mac -gaaga si ay u qiimeeyaan Taageerada Apple^{(Apple Support)} ee Genius Bar iyo Apple ayaa xallin doona dhibaatada ama beddeli doonta kombiyuutarka. Haddii kombayutarkaagu uu ka dhamaaday dammaanad, waxaad weli ku hagaajin kartaa Apple lacag. Si kastaba ha ahaatee, kharashka dayactirka Apple^(Apple) ee rasmiga ah ayaa badanaa aad u sarreeya oo ay ka jaban tahay iibsashada kombiyuutar cusub.

Warka wanaagsani waa in sidoo kale ay jiraan dukaamo dayactir kombuyuutar oo gaar ah oo cajiib ah kuwaas oo ku takhasusay hagaajinta Macs , badiyaa kharashyo macquul ah. Waxaa laga yaabaa inaad dirto mac-gaaga, laakiin aad bay u qalantaa inaad maqasho qeylada bilowga ah mar kale!

15 Fixes You Can Try When Your Mac Won’t Turn On or Boot Up

Apple Mac computers are usually rock-solid whеn it comes to reliability, but sometimes you push that power buttоn and get nothing but a black screen! Maybe your Mac switches on, but you can’t get it to boot into thе OS. If yоu can’t get your Mac to turn on or boot intо macOS, here are some steps you can follow to get back in business.

1. Perform a Forced Power Cycle

Macs don’t have a physical power switch that connects or disconnects power flow. It’s just a button that sends an instruction to the computer to turn off, turn on, or go to sleep.

Macs can sometimes get stuck in a situation where that power-on signal is ignored, but there’s a failsafe built in that should get the system to turn on (or shut down) in most cases. All you have to do is press and hold the power button for at least 10 seconds, after which the Mac will be forced to turn off or on, depending on its current state.

Suppose you see the Apple logo. Congratulations! Your Mac has now powered on, but you may still encounter additional startup problems.

2. Learn the Startup Error Icons

If your Mac turns on but doesn’t boot to macOS’s login screen, you’re probably experiencing some sort of problem. You’ll be shown an error icon that refers to specific problems most of the time.

You’re looking at the prohibitory symbol if you see a circle with a line through it. All this means is that the macOS version on the hard disk your Mac is trying to boot from has a version of macOS that’s not compatible with the Mac in question. This usually happens when you’ve swapped out hard drives or installed a second drive from which the Mac erroneously tries to boot.

A question mark means your hard disk doesn’t have macOS on it or that your Mac simply can’t see it. Check that the hard drive is correctly connected (if applicable) or review your Startup Disk Preferences, which we’ll cover below.

If you see a lock icon, it means that this Mac has a firmware password set. You’ll only see this if you’re trying to boot up using an external drive. You’ll have to ask whoever set the password to enter it for you or tell you what it is. Similarly, you may see a system lock PIN code, which means that the Mac has been remotely locked and needs its passcode.

3. Try to Start the Mac in Safe Mode

There’s a special macOS Safe Mode that you can boot into if your Mac turns on but doesn’t complete its startup all the way to login or the desktop. Safe Mode is a limited mode in macOS that only loads the bare essentials. Using Mac utilities to troubleshoot your system or restore a Time Machine backup to when your computer was working correctly is helpful. You can also delete any apps that may be causing issues.

Activating Safe Mode also automatically clears out macOS caches, so you might not have to do anything to fix your issue. Just reboot your Mac after being in safe mode, and if the problem was cache-related, it should work again.

Booting into Safe Mode is different depending on whether you have one of the new Apple Silicon Macs or not.

For Intel Macs:

1. Turn on your Mac.
2. Hold the Shift key. The Apple logo should appear. Keep holding the key.

1. When you see the login screen, you may release the Shift key.

For Apple Silicon Macs:

1. Turn on your Mac and hold the Shift key.

1. Keep holding the Shift key until the startup disk selection menu appears.

1. Choose the correct startup disk and then hold Shift.
2. Now select Continue in Safe Mode.

You’ll know you’re in Safe Mode because it will say so in the top right of the screen on the menu bar.

4. Use Disk Utility to Repair Your Startup Disk

Many startup issues can be solved by simply using the macOS Recovery function. Press and hold the power button to force your Mac to turn off to access the Recovery Menu.

Next, turn your Intel Mac on and immediately press and hold Command and the R key to boot into the Recovery menu. If you’re using an Apple Silicon Mac, simply press and hold the power button with the laptop off until you see the menu.

Then choose the option Use Disk Utility to repair your startup disk. The utility will try to fix any errors found using its First Aid functionality, and then after a reboot, everything should hopefully be back to normal. If it fails, you may want to reinstall macOS.  

5. Ensure the Correct Boot Disk is Selected in Startup Disk Preferences

If your Mac is trying to boot from the wrong drive, you’ll need to open the Startup Disk Preferences menu and double-check that the settings are correct. 

1. Make sure your Mac is off.
2. On an Intel Mac, hold the Options key as the Mac starts up.
3. Hold the power button in on an Apple Silicon Mac until you see Loading Startup Options.

1. Look at the selection of possible startup disks and choose the correct one.

This is also useful when you boot macOS from an external drive.

6. Charge Your Battery!

If you’re having this issue on a MacBook, you’ll first want to connect it to power and make sure that there’s enough charge in the battery to start up the system. If your Macbook hasn’t been charged in a very long time, the battery voltage may have dropped low enough to prevent startup. 

If you see the charging symbol pop up when you connect power, then you’re good to go. Just give it a little time and try again. If nothing pops up on the screen, don’t despair quite yet. Give it half an hour or so of being plugged in and if you still don’t get any response from the system, move on to other troubleshooting steps.

7. Inspect and Test Your Charger and Power Cable

With MacBooks such as the MacBook Air or MacBook Pro, charging happens using a USB-C cable and charger. We’ve experienced problems with Apple cables before exhibiting fraying and broken connectors before, so check your power cord to make sure it’s still in one piece.

Test your MacBook charger and cable with other USB-C devices (or use another charger and cable with your Mac) to confirm that they are working properly.

8. Check Your Monitor Connection

If you’re using a Mac that doesn’t have a built-in monitor (like the Mac Mini), make sure that your monitor is switched on, plugged in, and working properly. There may not be anything wrong with your Mac at all, simply something between the Mac and the monitor that’s gone wrong.

Even if you have a MacBook or iMac with an integrated screen, try hooking it up to an external display, in case the actual problem is that your built-in display is dead!

9. Try a Different Thunderbolt Port

MacBooks can charge from any of their Thunderbolt ports. Try a different one from the port you usually use if there’s something wrong with it. If you have a model of MacBook with ports on both the right and left sides of the computer, plug in the power cord on both sides since each set of ports shares an independent controller. 

If one of your ports is dead, you’ll still need to send your Mac in for inspection and repair, but at least if you can get it to power on, you have an opportunity to make backups of your data.

10. Remove Your USB-C Dock and Peripherals

If you’re running your MacBook’s power through a USB-C dock or adapter first, remove the dock from the equation since it might be faulty and prevent power from getting to the Mac. If your Mac still doesn’t start up with the dock removed, that’s probably not the problem.

Apart from a dock, remove other peripherals you don’t strictly need to operate your Mac, to make 100% sure it’s not one of your attached gadgets causing an issue.

11. Reset the PRAM &  SMC

PRAM or Parameter RAM is the storage area where your Mac stores control settings. PRAM is similar to NVRAM (nonvolatile RAM), which retains information even when turned off. If that information is corrupted or otherwise incorrect, it might prevent your system from starting up.

The System Management Controller is the subsystem of your Mac that controls crucial systems such as your cooling, power management, battery management, video mode switching, and a few other crucial functions. If the SMC has frozen up for some reason, your Mac won’t start up or show signs of life.

The good news is that there are ways to reset SMC functions and PRAM settings on your Mac. Head over to How To Reset PRAM & SMC On Your Mac for more information.

12. Reinstall macOS Using the Recovery Mode

If your Mac powers on but doesn’t boot into macOS, you can use the recovery menu to repair issues or Reinstall macOS. Just be aware that you’ll probably lose all of your user data stored on the local disk. This is why it’s a good idea to store all your most important data in iCloud or another cloud storage service. You should also set up a Time Machine drive before you ever run into trouble.

We have a few guides that will help you reset your Mac to have a fresh and working operating system. First, check out How To Reformat Your MacBook Without a Password, especially the “Reinstall macOS” section. If your Mac is so messed up that you can’t restore a fresh copy of macOS from the internal drive, check out How To Make a macOS Installer On a USB Stick.

13. Remove The Battery

Some older MacBook models still have removable batteries. If you’re still using one of these Macbooks, you have the option of removing the battery and then holding down the power button to allow any residual charge to dissipate. Then put the battery back and try to power up your Mac again.

14. Reinstall Your Firmware

On rare occasions, when your system has lost power during a firmware update, or it’s been otherwise interrupted, it may become corrupted. This will essentially turn your Mac into a paperweight, but all is not lost!

As long as you have an Apple Silicon Mac (like the M1 Macs) or an Intel Mac featuring the T2 security chip, you can use a second internet-connected Mac and the Apple Configurator App to restore the firmware of the dead Mac. Of course, you’ll need a USB cable to connect the two devices. Thunderbolt 3 cables won’t work.

If you can’t access a second Mac, you can have the firmware restoration done at a repair shop, including official Apple stores. The process for Intel and Apple Silicon Macs is slightly different, but the general process works like this:

• Apple Configurator is installed on the working Mac.
• The two computers are connected using a USB cable.
• The broken computer is restarted using a special key combination. This varies for different models of Mac.
• Apple Configurator is used on the working computer to either revive or restore the computer’s firmware that’s having issues.

If your Mac turns on and boots as usual after this process, you should be home-free!

15. It’s Dead Jim: Private Repair or Warranty Replacement

If your laptop or desktop Mac won’t turn on no matter what you try, it’s time to get professional help. In modern Macs, when a key component, such as the power supply, fails, there’s no way just to replace that one component unless you have access to the sophisticated equipment and knowledge needed to find and fix those components.

If your Mac is still under warranty, your choice is simple. Send your Mac in for evaluation by Apple Support at the Genius Bar and Apple will either fix the problem or replace the computer. If your computer is out of warranty, you can still have Apple repair it for a fee. However, official Apple repair costs are often so high that it’s cheaper to buy a whole new computer.

The good news is that there are also fantastic private computer repair shops that specialize in fixing Macs, usually for reasonable fees. You may have to send your mac away, but it’s well worth it to hear that startup chime again!
