All I see when I plug in Apple TV is a distorted apple logo

What does this mean? It was accidentally unplugged while being updated. Help!!!

As the update did not apply you will need to grab a micro usb cable and restore via iTunes

    So, I just fixed my iPod Nano fixed. For them to fix it they had to clear all my songs. When I plug it into my Toshiba laptop it says you must restore it to use Windows. It also says it may delete songs to return to factory settings, but will it delete them off my iPod or my laptop since I don't have any on my iPod? Do I restore it? Will it delete anything off my iTunes or nothing? I really need to know!

  • I got my iPhone stolen at a party, the next day my friend gave me back my iPhone 4s and he said that it was jailbroken. Now it will not turn on. When i plug it in to a charger, the apple logo appears for about ten second, then connect to iTunes stays on.

    Hello, i have a question on my iphone 4s. I went to a party a few days ago and it had gotten stolen. The next day my friend said that he had found it and it was jaibroken? The phone was on 1 % when i had recieved it. It then died and i plugged it in to the charger. When i plugged it in the apple logo appeared as if it was starting but, it wasnt. The apple logo appeared for about ten seconds and then the screen went black. After that, the connect to itunes screen popped up and will not go away. So now when i take it off of the charger the screen just stays black and wont turn on? I tried connecting it to itunes and restoring it. But it wont even show my phone any more on the side of itunes. I tried restoring it and an error had occured (2001). I have looked up on youtube how to fix this problem and non of them have helped or worked. Its my only phone and i cant even text my girlfriend which bothers me terribly!! Please help me ASAP!!

    You're on your own.  Good luck.

  • Is there free voice mail service? if so how do i get it to work? all i see when i click the voice mail icon is the accept/decline for visual voice mail and that says theres a charge?

    Is there free voice mail service? if so how do I set it up? When I click on the voice mail icon all I see is the accept/decline agreement for Visual Voice Mail and it said something about charges will be applied on my bill so I declined.

    Your Basic voice mail is a free required program for you if you do not want Basic Visual Voice mail (free) or Premium which is a paid service. Basic Voice Mail set up is free and easy to do.
    1. Sign in to your My Verizon online account.
    2. On left side of page in Blue letters find the drop down menu. Click to open menu then go to change features and locate Basic Voice mail and click the Red add button.
    3. When you're done making this change click next at the bottom of the screen and then ok.
    4. Now go into your device and set up your  Basic voice mail program. You may continue to receive an error message for a period of time “Visual voice mail update”, just clear and disregard.

  • My ipod touch 5g goes crazy when i plug it up and i use the apple cord that it can with

    When I plug my ipod touch 5g up to charge and I get on there to play games but when I do, it goes crazy! The screen wont work and I keep on tapping at it and then the screen finally works but only for about 2 mins.

    Try a different cable and a different charging source.
    Other users have reported the same but never posted back when how it was resolved.

  • So my phone won't turn on and when I plug it in it just flashs the apple logo

    Anyone help me out. Oh I also already tried holding the power and home button and nothing.

    Hello RyukBelmont
    Try putting your iPhone in to recovery-mode and restore it to see if it comes back on. With your iPhone powered off, plug it into your computer and hold the Home Button, you will then see a Connect to iTunes icon and you will have the option to restore. It will erase all the data on your iPhone, but if you have a back up you can restore from it.

  • Hi! I purchased my ATV in Miami, but I live in Argentina. I have not been able to get the device running on any TVs. When I plug it in, it briefly shows the apple logo, then a sign saying no signal, check power cords and power source or sthg like that.

    Hi!
    I purchased my AppleTV in Miami, but I live in Argentina.
    I have not been able to get my device running correctly, and altough I've read tons of things online, I still have no solution to my problem.
    Here's the thing: after everything's plugged in and ON, I see the Apple logo briefly, then the TV displays a sign that says no signal, check pwoer cords and power source.
    But everything is plugged in and connected properly, otherwise, I doubt I'd be seeing the apple logo, right?
    I tried changing the HDMI cable, reversing the ends, switching ports, hard resetting the ATV, and trying a different TV. No luck.
    I read there is some issue with Samsung TVs, and most LED and LCD tvs down here are Samsung.
    On the other hand, I cannot return it or exchange it, since I bought it in the states.
    Oh! One of the tvs I tried it on displays a little sign that reads "connected at 1280x720 @60hz", and only THEN, goes to the "no signal" sign.
    Please!!! I am being driven up the walls here.... HELP!!

    Try this:
    Change the Apple TV resolution:
    Press and hold the Menu and Up button on your Apple Remote for six seconds.
    The Apple TV will automatically cycle to the next resolution at approximately 20 second intervals.
    Press Play on the Apple Remote to keep the current resolution or Select to manually cycle to the next resolution.

    I have been trying to find books in the audio format so I can listen while I walk but when I try to find audiobooks all that comes up are children's books and old classics. Where do I go in itunes to find good audiobooks?

    Hi isabelle,
    If you are having issues with your bookmarks for your Maps application not functioning, you may want to try some things to troubleshoot.
    First, quit all running applications and test again -
    Force an app to close in iOS
    Next, I would try restarting and if needed resetting the iPhone -
    Restart or reset your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
    If the issue is still present, you may want to restore the iPhone as a new device -

  • My iphone 5 died and when i plugged it back in to charge the apple screen came up and wont go away. i cant turn it off because my lock button is broke. what do i do?

    my iphone 5 died and when i went to plug it in to charge the apple sign came up and it wont go away it has been stuck for 2 hours. i cant turn it off because my lockbutton is broke. what do i do?

    Make an appointment at an Apple Store to have your device examined by a technician. Or contact Apple Support. Get your lock button fixed then you can restore your phone.

  • Refurb iphone 4 powers on with wall charger, but when i plug into computer it just flashes the apple logo on and off. i just took it out of the box.

  • I have a big problem! My ipod touch is stuck! it won't open, all I see when I open it is the itunes icon with a USB cable and an arrow! What can I do? I've tried connectingit with itunes, but itunes doesn't see it. plus i have windows 8

    Can't connect my ipod toch to itunes!!! It doesn't see it! I use windows 8, don't know if that's the problem. Anyways, my ipod is stuck! Every time I open it, it stays stuck with the image of a USB cable with an arrow pointing towards an itunes icon. but whatever I do, my computer doesn't see it, and neither does itunes. What to do???!!!

    The the remaining items of the following, you may have to let the battery fully drain.
    - 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 on another computer
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • HP L7580: Sparks see when power plug is inserted and then printer doesn't power on

    I have an HP OfficeJet L7580. I am not being able to power it on.
    When I connect the power adapter to the power point, the green LED on the power plug (which plugs into the printer) starts glowing. When I insert this power plug in to the printer, I notice a spark inside the printer and the green LED stops glowing.
    Any ideas what could be wrong?

    This is a hardware issue. You will need to contact HP Support (1800-474-6836). It may be a power module problem, and it needs to be replace. It can also be the printer, but for starters, you need another module.

  • I have an iPhone 4, and when I plug any headphones in, including the new apple ones, they just sound like the speakers are blown, but when I pull the jack out a little bit they sound fine?

    I don't know what to do, considering I just bought these headphones and it's the phone which will not let them play. Any help?

    Could be a contact problem. There are certain places inside the headset port where proper contact is needed for the various functions the Apple headset has, for example the Remote/microphone unit that cheaper headphones don't have.
    You should have your phone checked by an Authorized Apple Service provider or by visiting an Apple Store next to your place.

  • My iphone 5 won't turn on but when plugged into power source it keeps showing apple logo?

    My iPhone 5 won't turn on at all and then when I plug it into a power source either into a plug socket or into my laptop with the USB cable it keeps showing start up screen with apple logo over and over again on a loop.
    I have tried holding the top and front button together, this didn't work. I have also tried connecting to my laptop and following the reboot steps that I found on another discussion forum. Neither worked for me. The phone just won't reboot and it keeps continuing to loop the apple logo screen over and over without me touching anything.
    The iPhone won't even connect to itunes and so itunes seems to not recognise my phone because its not even turning on (just continually apple logo screen appears for 5 seconds, goes to black screen and then repeats).
    I don't know what is happening to it! Can anyone help? Is it a fault with the hardware or have I dont something to it? The next appointment at the genius bar for me is monday so I'm going to keep looking for any more recent ones until then but I really need to get it sorted before then so if anyone can help that would be great!
    Thanks

    Try a reset when your iPhone is plugged into the charger as you say it does not respond when not plugged in...
    Press and hold the Home and On/Off buttons simultaneously until you see the Apple logo, then release.  This may take up to 10 seconds.  This is the equivalent of a re-boot and you will not lose any data.
    See if it will charge after this.
