  • My macbook pro will not  start up. I get the apple logo and the little  start up waiting avitar. I tried everything including starting with my back up drive and nothing happens.

    My macbook pro mid 2012 will not start up. I was running bitdefender and when I went to see if it was done, I had the apple logo and the loading (winding circle) on the screen. I can not get out of this. I used my back up external drive and it did nothing. It did light up.

    samnleosgpa,
    you may have faulty RAM. Are you able to boot into your MacBook Pro’s Apple Hardware Test (“AHT”)? If so, try running it to see if it can detect a problem. If you’re not able to run its AHT, and you’ve upgraded your MacBook Pro’s RAM before, try reïnstalling its original RAM and see if you can get past the “-6002F” error code. If you aren’t able to run its AHT, and you haven’t upgraded its RAM or you no longer have its original RAM, then I’d recommend that you make an appointment at your nearest Apple store to have them diagnose the problem.

  • My iPhone 5 will not start it just turns on to apple logo and goes to dark blue screen.

    How do I turn on ?

    Hi Chuyy76,
    From your post I see that your iPhone will not boot past the Apple logo.  There are troubleshooting steps I'd like you to follow through, which can be found in the article linked to below.

    Linc has suggested you use Disk Utility "Repair Permissions". This is one of the few obscure cases where "Repair Permissions" should be exactly the right solution.
    For almost every other routine problem, the Disk Utility function "Repair Disk" is the right choice, and "Repair Permissions" is just a distraction.

  • Iphone 4 will not power up. shut itself down after recording video and attemptimg to send via mms.

    Iphone 4 shut itself down about 10 hours ago after I recorded a new video and attempted to send the video via mms.  Tried many times to power up using standard power up procedures.  I noticed that it seemed to be getting hot.  I removed the protective cover and the actual phone was very warm.  even after 2 hours it appeared to be overheating.  has not been dropped or gotten wet.  any solutions?  has this happened to anyone else before?

    Hmmm, press and hold (about 10sec) the Home and Power button until you see the Apple logo. That restarts your iPhone and should fix your problem.

  • IPhone 5 will not turn on. Endless Low battery, Apple Logo, reset loop

    Today I dropped my phone, not a big drop, only about 2 feet. I had a lifeproof case on so I thought to myself," No big deal" To my shock and disbelief, my phone would not turn on! I tried to plug it in to a charger to try to start it. It immediately came on with a low battery symbol. I thought that was strange as it had a 70-80% charge on it. But I was hopeful. It then displayed the Apple Logo and I thought I was safe. Then after about 5 sec it went blank. Then the Low Battery symbol came on again. Then the Apple Logo for a few seconds, ... then Off. It does this over and over in an endless loop. I dont know where to go from here. I tried googling the problem but didn't come up with much. I tried holding the home and power button for 20-30 seconds like one video recommends but that did nothing. It only loops if its plugged in to a charger. If its not plugged in it is just off, no activity at all and it will not turn on. Any help will be much appreciated.

    Just to follow up if anybody else has this problem.
    The drop must have ruined the battery. After taking it to a local repair shop to get serviced, as suggested by Ingo2711, the phone is back to 100% after a new battery was installed. $50.00 bill for a new battery is not to bad at all to fix my phone.

Any help please would be great...it is my aughters ipad and I think she will hate me for the rest of her life if I've mucked it up!!

    - Try resetting the iPod
    Reset iPod touch:  Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Then connect to cpmputer and restore if it shows in iTunes
    - If iPod is still frozen on, let the battery fully drain.  Then after charging for an hour try the above again.

  • My daughters iPhone 5 will not power on, be recognized by the computer, or reset. Next steps?

    The Apple icon shows up for a second and goes away. If I try to charge it, the screen flashes and has some discoloration to the logo and background. It will flash but not start. I can't get it to reset and I've gotten the battery to go dead to see if that would clear any issues. So far, no luck.

    I would suggest you take it to an Apple store for diagnosis (or the store it was purchased from...).

  • My iphone 4s will not sync any music, it does the apps etc and the contents but not the music that i have selected

    I have been doing itune for years and this one's puzzled me?

    Hi im a newbie here and i recently bought an iphone from a friend (wahh i know i should have bought it legitly but i wasnt paying that price sorry),
    I have a 32 GB Black Iphone 4s and theres a problem.
    Yesterday i decided i wanted music on my phone and decided to sync my phone to my itunes and computer..
    But lets backtrack first... Earlier in the day i decided to plug a (non iphone heaphone into the headphone port) and much to my ssureprise it worked (all ive ever dealt with is blackberry) unplugged the headphones and a few hours later this is where i synced my phone tried to play music an GASP nothing..in the music app the volume nubs are gray and cannot be moved left or right and no sound is being heard.. also when i tried to check to see if my ringer was going up and down it was displaying the little speaker but not the bar that moves. Read the discussions here and it seemed that we've all been screwed now i love my iphone and all its features only phone ive ever wanted but i would love this to be fixed.
    I have tried:
    Restting all setting
    Hard Reset
    Restore
    Restore from back
    Changing everything imaginable in Setting and nothing has worked
    Making a voicenote and i actually got sound and my ringer started to work! YAY right.. WRONG
    Cleaning it with nail polish removeer
    Brushing it with a brush
    Using a paperclip and scraping it
    *i did find some fluff but it came out*
    After a few futile attempts at trying to play videos and games with sound and getting nothing i have decided its time to put my tail inbetween my legs and hope that someone can help.
    Im not sure if was the type of headphones that i used or hat but i need help
    PLEASE REPLY I NEED MUSIC
    I AM ALSO A YOUTUBER AND FILM OFF MY IPHONE AND I NEED TO HEAR WHAT **** I AM TALKING AT THE END OF A VIDEO

  • My ipod will not charge. it only goes to the apple logo for a few minutes, then turns off.

    Did you try a hard reset? Hold the On button and the Home button until it powers down but continue to hold until it begins to power up again. See if that brings any success.

  • HT201263 iphone 4 will not turn on for anything. touching the home screen and lock screen still doesnt turn it on. what should i do

    my iphone 4 was working fine yesterday and last night it just started cutting off and on by its self and now it doesnt want to come on at all. what should i do?

    Try:                                               
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on           
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try another cable              
    - Try on another computer                                                       
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem. Take it apart and verify that you reassembled it correctly. Next take it to someone with more experience.

  • I have downloaded a rental from itunes and it will not play. I have unplugged the apple tv and restarted my computer.  I just keep asking me to authorize which I do then it tells me it is already authorized but the move never starts.

    This has never happened before when I have rented.

    Delete and redownload it if doing so is free in your country.
