Frozen without hope

[Sergei]

neye:
Could someone assist in getting a Mac Book Pro out of a stubborn frozen state.

After leaving it unattened for few hours I came back to a completely frozen device. I tried to use the tips indicated in the Owner's Manual but without any result. HELP!!!

Not really enough info..
Unplug any devices first.
Plug into the mains ~ your battery may well be flat after that long. Don't plug anything into it till it reaches 10%
Close it and check to see if it will go into sleep mode.
Check the owners manual again
Command Control plus power button restarts a G4 iBook.
Best.

if its froze, and u followed all the steps....shut that puppy off with the Power button.

then just turn it back on. itll survive just fine

And if it won't shut off from the Power button, then unplug the AC cord and take out the battery.
Then let it sit for a sec or so and then turn it back on.

As D3v1L80Y said, taking out the battery does the trick for me.

pushing the power button for 10sec, should do the trick.

but if not, pull the plug.
