hello, i just make SMC reset on my six month MacBook Pro 13 retina and after i made it i get no working turn on button. The orange light dissapiert also from the charger brisk but one minute ago the light was on and now is no light and no power on my computer :( My baterie before i did this fckn SMC was 50% now computer have no reaction after pressing turn on power. I know this is so strange but it happens. Anybody have any clue what is the reason ? Thanks
 
i dont know i did it because it seemed to me that Mac gets to hot when was putted on charger.
When i was making SMC reset i just press those 4 buttons in the same time and after i didnt hold for long power button just try turn on the Mac Like as always
 
Do You have any clue whats happen ? Is it serious ? I have still 6 months warianty but i dont know is it good to tell them that i did SMC before it. What i found on inet about SMC that is completely save now I guess its not :(
 
If your computer won't start, of course it's serious - you don't have the use of your computer. But the solution could be very simple. Or not.

SMC resets won't hurt anything, and they won't affect your warranty status. If you called Apple for support, I'm sure they'd ask you to try the SMC. If it's still not starting up, then take advantage of your warranty.

This Apple support article may help: https://support.apple.com/HT204267

It's at least possible that your SMC reset was not successful - pushing all four of those buttons at the same time isn't all that easy. If you haven't already tried holding the power button for at least 10 seconds, try it - the system may currently be hung and needs a restart.

The system (actually, the batteries) will get warm when charging. The question is when that becomes abnormal, rather than normal. However, an SMC reset isn't likely to fix anything of that sort. If you think it's abnormally warm... again, that's what an warranty is for.

Meantime, if you're not seeing lights on the MagSafe connector, make sure you have the other end connected to a working outlet - at the moment, it's at least possible you have a dead battery AND a disconnected charger. Check the connections, try a different outlet, borrow someone else's charger if possible.
