Macbook Pro won’t charge or turn on

Hi, my MacBook Pro has only ever charged when I restarted the computer, but today the battery drained completely, so now I can’t restart it to get the battery working. What do I do? The usual battery-empty-icon doesn’t show up, is my MacBook possibly dead?

Best regards,

Liva

Hi,

If your MacBook Pro has Intel processor, resetting SMC could solve your issue.

If it doesn't help, you'd better take your MacBook Pro to your local retail AppleStore, Genius Bar or Apple Authorized Service Provider to be examined your MacBook Pro there.
