MacBook makes noise but does not turn on

MacBook Pro 13inch 2012 edition doesn't seem to want to turn on. What happened was it kept turning off and doing double beeps so I did a disk utility and erased the data from hard drive, as I turned it back on, it started doing a internet recovery and mid way through that it completely shut off and hasn't turned on since. I've tried all the keyboard combinations, taking out the battery and putting it back in trick but still the same problem. The lights on the side that show the battery life works normally and comes on and when I put it to my ear and turn it on, I can hear it turn on then turn off all of a sudden, screen stays black and so does the light that comes on when you press the power button, any advice or guidance on what to do?


thank you

Good evening giants-13,

Welcome to the Support Communities!

I understand your MacBook Pro will no longer turn on. It sounds from your description that there may be an issue with the hard drive.
Try following the troubleshooting steps below, and if the issue persists, we've included information to contact an Apple Store Genius or Apple Authorized Service provider to physically inspect the computer for you.

If your Mac won‘t turn on


Take care.
