Apple logo, blank screen loop

My phone is in an endless loop where it shows the apple logo then blank screen then apple logo, blank screen. I can only do this with it on the charger, it is a brick without it being on the charger. I am able to go into recovery mode but it has been awhile since I've backed up my phone, any ideas?

  • My Iphone 4S keeps flashing between the Apple logo, blank screen and sign in.  It will not let me sign in, nor can I power it off.  Help!

    My Iphone 4S keeps flashing between the Apple logo, blank screen and sign on screen.  It will not let me sign on or power off.  It started about 20 mins ago.  One of my friends started having the same issue at the same time.  How can I fix this?

    Hi Bucky16,
    If you haven't already done so, you may want to reset the iPhone:
    iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1430
    If the above does not resolve your issue, the next best step will be to restore your iPhone using a computer with iTunes:

  • IMac 10.5.8 is stuck on Apple logo loading screen , how can I back up my files with an external hard drive ?

    so my iMac (10.5.8 its pretty old ) got stuck on the apple logo loading screen (as I call it lol) and it will not go beyond that .I've already made and appointment for the genius bar but now would I back up my files with an external hard drive ? No unfortunately I don't have any other laptop or computer just the external hard drive. how would I back it up? Does it have something to do with "target disc mode"?

    Hi,
    Thank you for great advice re SuperDuper.
    You wasnt to know we didnt live in  USA.  We will try to get the full retail version of Leopard off the net.  We will also phone round the apple resellers.
    In the meantime, we are happy running Tiger with the knowledge that SuperDuper has cloned our hard drive in case of a disaster.
    SuperDuper recommended backing up the hard drive with a new user account if we were using filevault on the master account.  We backed up our hard drive without creating a new user with filevault as we could not read the pdf `Instuctions as preview was not responding.
    Is this copy safe to use as a bootable drive or should we copy our entire HD again using a new user account without filevault?

  • I wanted to restore my ipod touch 4G, but everytime it is restoring with the apple logo, the screen goes partially white and my itunes says "error 9"... what should i do?

    I wanted to restore my ipod touch 4G, but everytime it is restoring with the apple logo, the screen goes partially white and my itunes says "error 9"... what should i do?
    plz answer me~

    Error 9
    This error occurs when the device unexpectedly loses its USB connection with iTunes. This can occur if the device is manually disconnected during the restore process. This issue can be resolved by performing USB troubleshooting, using a different USB dock-connector cable, trying another USB port, restoring on another computer, or by eliminating conflicts from third-party security software.

    Can you boot up from your install DVD and run "Repair Disk" from the Utility menu?

  • When I turn on computer I can't see the apple logo the screen is just a gray screen

    When I turn on computer I can't see the apple logo the screen is just a gray screen?  I know a person presses "alt" to switch people apple and windows using bootcamp, but I just don't see the apple logo anymore.  What is wrong with this thing?

    So, do you see any boot choices if you hold alt at bootup?

    Try and force iPad into Recovery Mode
    1. Disconnect the USB cable from the device, but leave the other end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
    2. Turn off the device: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for the device to turn off.
    3.While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to the device. The device should turn on.
    4. Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen. When this screen appears, release the Home button. iTunes should alert you that it has detected a device in recovery mode. Click OK, and then click Restore to restore the device.
    Note: Data will be lost. You may have to repeat the above many times.

  • I had to reboot my iMac, it froze... When I went to reboot it started up as usual... Made power sound, showed apple logo (white screen)... And pin wheel started after 3 to 4 mins., went tblack screen with error messages. Rebooted 5x, won't go paspinwheel

    I had to reboot my iMac, it froze... When I went to reboot it started up as usual... Made power sound, showed apple logo (white screen)... And pin wheel started after 3 to 4 mins., went to black screen with error messages. Rebooted 5x, shot off power source, disconnected external devices... Now won't go past pinwheel... Since it does not go to black screen, I cannot convey error messages... Please advise what I could try... Thank you... I have an iMac 2009... Upgrade operating system to new system this spring... Don.

    It is guitardad's again... I read past topics on this issue... As I am not overly computer savvy, I want to be careful that I don't mess things up further... Of course the extended warranty is done... There is talk about booting from the system disc...  I'm not sure if this is the first thing to do or not... Can the support community, advise me on what logical steps I should take ( in order) or direct me to a website and/ or you tube video that walks one safely through the processes... Once again thank you for reading and offering your advice... I am on fixed $$$ so I'm trying to avoid calling apple, unless I have no options and/or the suggestions do not resolve the issues... Tx again Don.

  • Macbook Pro Stuck at Apple Logo (gray screen) and keeps restarting

    I've a problem with my Macbook Pro wherein it keeps getting stuck at the Apple Logo upon restarting (no spinning wheel). It eventually restarts itself maybe after 5 minutes but still keeps getting stuck in the grey screen where the Apple Logo comes up.
    I've tried restarting this with CMD+R  to do a "fsck -fy" and here's what I keep getting (attached picture). This screen eventually exits and my Mac restarts itself and gets stuck at the Apple Logo (grey screen).
    I think this maybe a HD problem (possibly some corrupt files). Any suggestions/similar experiences? Any chance this can be resolved without reinstalling OS X?
    Thank you!!!

  • When ever i insert microsim my screen goes blank with just apple logo on screen ...Without sim it is ok...I dont know what to do

    I just recently bought IPAD2....Whenever i inserted my microsim into sim tray, the screen goes blank with only apple logo to show...It does not start till i remove the sim and press both Home and Power buttons simulataneously...Can somebody help what shall i do????

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iPod fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - If still not successful that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • Apple logo changing colors loop

    Hello-
    I have a iPhone 5c. I bought my phone October 27 of this year. I have had issues with it since the 4th day of owning it and no one can help. So I'm turning to you guys, hoping you have something! My phone will get in a constant loop, and I've done all the loop tricks and they work....for about a day or two. Took it to apple they "fixed it".... for 3 weeks it worked and now its doing the apple logo loop, but now the screen changes colors. Sometimes it is the screen, some times it is the apple logo, and then there are times when lines show up. This is driving me craz! Someone please help!

    The 30 day return warranty ran out the 27th of November.
