If your MacBook is not switching on, please try the following steps first: Check the power cord and make sure it is securely plugged into your laptop and a power source. Make sure the power button is turned on and that your battery has some charge. If you are using an external device, such as a mouse or keyboard, make sure these are connected properly. If you have a removable battery, consider taking it out and then putting it back in, as this may help reset it. Try a different power adapter, if possible. Try restarting your device. If all else fails, try resetting your laptop to factory settings. If you are still unable to switch on your laptop after trying all the above steps, consider seeking professional help.

Check the power cable and make sure it is securely connected to the laptop and the power outlet. If it still does not turn on, try resetting the SMC by pressing and holding the power button for 10 seconds. If that does not work, try resetting the NVRAM by pressing and holding the Option, Command, P, and R keys simultaneously for 20 seconds.

Please check the power cable and make sure it is properly secured to both the MacBook and the power supply. If the issue persists, please try resetting the SMC and PRAM. If the issue still persists, please contact apple support for further assistance.

Here are some troubleshooting steps you can try if your MacBook is not turning on:

1.Check the power source: Make sure the power source (e.g., wall socket, power strip, or battery) is functioning properly and your MacBook is properly connected.

2.Reset the SMC (System Management Controller): The SMC controls power functions on your MacBook. Try resetting it by shutting down the MacBook, holding down the Shift + Control + Option keys, and then pressing the Power button.

3.Charge the battery: If your MacBook is not turning on and the battery is low, try plugging it in to charge for at least an hour before attempting to turn it on again.

4.Perform a hard reset: Try performing a hard reset by shutting down your MacBook, holding down the Command + Control + Power buttons for 10 seconds, and then releasing them.

If these steps don't resolve the issue, it may be necessary to take your MacBook to an Apple Store or authorized repair center for further diagnosis and repair.

If your MacBook won't turn on, please try these first: Make sure the power wire is firmly connected to both the laptop and the wall outlet. Verify that your battery has charge and that the power switch is engaged. Verify that any peripherals you want to use, such as a mouse or keyboard, are correctly attached. If the battery is detachable, removing it and reinserting it may reset the device. If you have access to many power supplies, try swapping them out. You might try powering down and then back up your device. In the event that nothing else works, restoring your laptop to factory settings is worth a go. If you have tried all of the above and are still having trouble turning on your laptop, you may want to consider taking it to a repair shop.

If your MacBook is not switching on, try resetting the SMC (System Management Controller) or PRAM (Parameter Random Access Memory), or try booting it in safe mode. If these steps don't work, seek assistance from an authorized repair center or Apple support.

It sounds like you may be having trouble getting your MacBook to turn on. If the power button is not responding, it could be due to a hardware issue. It's best to take your MacBook to an Apple store or authorized repair center for a diagnostic test. If the power button is responding, it could be due to an issue with the operating system. In this case, you can try restarting your MacBook or running a software update.
