    Since it will not boot then a hardware test can't be run. You could try FireWire Target Disk Mode and if it works then access from another Mac to run tests on the new drive. You could also try installing the OS X software from the host computer. If this does not work then professional help should be considered.

  • I cannot put my iMac to sleep using the power button since the Mavericks upgrade.

    As the title states, I can no longer put my computer to sleep using the power button. I have to put it to sleep using the mouse. I miss the convenience of the power button. The window for energy saver is not like the display in support, it is missing the "Allow the power button to put the computer to sleep" option. Very strange. I am running an older desktop (2009) with Mavericks, fully updated. 10.9.4

    A workaround is to setup a keystroke in the System/Keyboard/Shortcuts preference pane to sleep the Mac.  Any function key or key combination will work.

    I came home and attempted to power on my iPad2. I can see the backlight but nothing on the screen. When I try to reset by pushing the off button and the power button at the same time I can sometimes see the characters briefly but the screen has lines. Can someone tell me if there is anything else I can do before a trip to the repair shop?

    If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore.  Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset.  Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync.  From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab.  Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup.  You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod.  Again, say "yes."
    At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod.  As before, say "yes."  Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time.  If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device.  Corrective action is simple -  choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
    If you're unable to do the Restore, go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here.

    Hi:
    Below is the link to the maintenance and service guide for your notebook.
    http://h10032.www1.hp.com/ctg/Manual/c03043778.pdf
    Please see Chapter 2, pages 11-12 which show the buttons and label them. The button to the right of the power button is indicated to be a button to launch the web browser.

  • IPhone 4s looks shut down all the time.especially when the 3g is on.in the forums its said to push the use button and the power button at the same time.the people calling me cannot reach at my phone.what should i do ?

    my phone looks like offline all the time.its all about me to notice that its offline.then i have to push the main button and the power button together to open it.then the apple sign comes on the screen and the phone turns online.but i cannot receive the information of who called me at the time that my iphone 4s turned offline by itself.i cannot receive messages at all.what can i do now ? i sent the phone to the service and they just told me that they installed the current version.but i guess nothing happened.its doing the same thing again.i cannot use my iphone.
    From Turkiye.

    I've tried all those.But nothing works.The phone seems to be shut down.But it is not.When i get it out of my pocket, for example to call someone, i touch to main button but nothing happens.I solve it by pushing the power button and the main button together just for a couple of seconds, as its said so in the forums.
    also, people told me that they were calling me, my phone was ringing but i didnt answer?...i checked it for millions of times, it seems to be shut down, but its normally not.then i push the buttons together and the apple sign comes on the screen.it searches for the network.and it works.
    but i do not see any calls, texts anything.but for the others, they say my phone seems to be workin.
    I thought it was 'cause of the 3G is switched on but when I turn 3G off, it does the same thing.it seems to be offline all the time.

  • TS2570 I have MacBook Air late 2011 with encryption enabled the mac froze so I just shut it down by pressing the power button .But the when I tried  booting the gray screen appeared nothing else

    I have MacBook Air late 2011 with encryption enabled the mac froze and I pressed the power button to shut it down but then the gray screen appeared no wheels nothing just gray. I tried all steps but nothing helped. Worse than that only the pram key combination works I cant get the cmd-r or just alt or any combination to work??? Any suggestions would help. Thanks!
    P.s. I am on mountain lion with ssd encryption enabled.  The mac froze when the internet stopped the one from the cable (I use ethernet usb one) when I turned wifi on it froze.  I have disconnected everything when trying the steps except power cable.

    Boot into Internet Recovery (command-option-R at the startup chime) and try to repair the boot volume in Disk Utility. You will have to unlock the volume before you can do anything with it.

    ok my iphone 3g touch screen is not responding, i can recieve calls and it can charge and connect to itunes, but i cannot go any further than using the home button or the power button, it is only the slide feature and touch feature that has become non existent.  Also, i have a f'ew cracks in my screen for a while now and it was running smoothly up until saturday when i sat on it applying large amounts of pressure to the phone screen.  Is there a way i can fix this myself without having to recover my phone to factory settings or wasting 50 bucks to get it fixed??
