Hi all,
I have a 2012 retina MBP and all of a sudden today it won't turn on, the power button just seems to do nothing.
My first thought was that the battery was completely drained, so I tried charging it. The light on the charger appears fine, I.e green for a second or two when plugged in then goes to orange, but after leaving it for about 12 hours the light is still orange when usually it takes 2-3 hours to fully charge.
I've tried resetting the 'SMC' (Shift, Ctrl, Alt/Option and Power) and this temporarily changes the charger light to green then back to orange. Does this mean the logic board is ok?
My local Genius Bar doesn't have appointments till next Sunday unfortunately. I'm going to try just going into the store but it just seems really strange how this has happened all of a sudden!
Thanks!
