We often receive panicked phone calls from clients whose MacBook Pro has crashed complete with their life’s work. However, the MacBook Pro, which has advanced pieces of software and there are a fair few ways you can restore your hardware without being certified geeks like us kind folk at Mac Rental Company. When I may need a Macbook Pro hire or iMac hire in London UK.
So before entering in full on panic mode there are a number of ways in which you could try to reboot
your MacBook Pro hire rental without the help of an Apple professional.
The obvious options are:
Press Command + Option + Escape to force quite any application that isn’t responding
Forcing your Mac to shut down by pressing and holding the power button for 10 seconds.
If neither of these options works, then it could be that your SMC might need to be reset, the tell-tale
signs of this are:
– The computer fan is running at a high speed
– Your power button isn’t responding
– Your computer shuts down unexpectedly
– Closing or opening the lid has no affect
– The backlights aren’t working
– The battery isn’t charging properly
– Your MacBook Pro is performing slowly
– Application icons bounce in the dock for longer than usual when opening
If one or more of these is the case then it could be your SMC. For those of you who haven’t heard of the
SMC it is a chip inside your Mac that basically runs a fair amount of the machine such as the LED
indicators, keyboards and buttons. If it isn’t working you could:
If your battery is non removable
– Shut down the Mac
– Plug in the MagSafe or USB-C power adapter to power source and to your Mac.
– Using the keyboard, press Shift + Control + Option on the left side of your keyboard, then press
the power button at the same time.
– Release all the keys and then switch your Macbook on again.
If the battery is removable
– Shut down the Mac
– Disconnect the MagSafe power adapter from the Ma
– Remove the batter
– Press and hold the power button for 5 seconds

isn’t working you would note that:
