This can easily happen if your Mac's problem lies with its hardware-in most cases, you can't do those repairs yourself. More rarely, you might have a software problem that you can't figure out, despite your best efforts. In either case, the time has arrived for a trip to the Genius Bar."</em></p><p><em><img src="http://images.thoughtsmedia.com/resizer/thumbs/size/600/at/auto/1243318502.usr105634.jpg" /></em></p><p>Just a few tips, mostly basic stuff such as make an <a href="http://www.apple.com/retail/geniusbar" target="_blank">appointment</a> and check your warranty, but it never hurts to be prepared. The big one though is make sure its an Apple problem, not a third-party problem. But if you are in doubt, bring it in and if it isn't an Apple problem, they can direct you to the right place. </p>
