Hello.
My trusty little 11" 2011 MacBook Air (which is now 10) won't turn on as of this week. When I press the power button, it makes a beeping sound three times, stops for a few seconds, and then does this again. It will keep making the sound until I hole down the power button for a while and then it stops.
Having googled the issue, it looks like the RAM may have failed. And it seems this isn't an easy fix for a novice like me, as the RAM is soldered on.
Has anyone come across this issue before and manage to either fix it or get it fixed? Although I don't use this machine much anymore as I have a 13" MBP, I do occasionally use it because I really like the small size. I'm really gutted that this seems to have died on me.
Is it even worth trying to get this fixed or should I call it a day?
Thanks.
