Ok so my computer has not booting and just pulling up in the spinning gear and sitting there. I took it into apple care and they weren't really sure what was wrong with it. Then it randomly started working. Then I took it home and it stopped working. Opened it up and started playing with it and a little wiggle of the processor will get it to boot right up and run. Randomly it wont come out of sleep or just go into the spinning gear on start up, little wiggle of the processor and it boots right up. I pulled it off and cleaned it with compressed air. All I can figure is that there is a bad connection between my processor and my logic board? Is there anything else I can do to clean it better or better the connection? Electric parts cleaner? Dielectric grease? I'm going mad..
