Apple logo doesn't dim

This isn't a major issue but what happens is the lit up apple logo on the back of the screen doesnt dim when i shut my macbook it just turns out? As in normally when you close the screen its supposed to fade out not instantly turn off like a light switch. When my screen is locked however it does fade out but when my screen isnt locked it cuts out.
Nothing urgent its just a feature i miss and i was wondering if there was anything i could do to fix it if possible.
Thanks

This isn't a major issue but what happens is the lit up apple logo on the back of the screen doesnt dim when i shut my macbook it just turns out?
Its not an issue at all, that logo has NO independent lighting, its as plastic cut out from the alloy casing.
screen is on/ illuminated, so is the logo
screen off so is the logo.
There is only one row of LED that power the monitor and let light thru that plastic logo / window.

    Click here and follow the instructions. If the computer was running Mac OS X 10.6.8 or earlier and you reach the third set of steps, insert a Mac OS X install disk.

  • IPod stuck on apple logo - doesn't turn on

    I've got a third generation iPod (with four buttons across the top) which I've had for about three years now. Over the past 6 months it's been crashing and freezing. resetting it would normally resolve the issue, but I would have to keep resetting sometimes up to about 20 times.
    Now it just stays on the apple logo and I can hear the disk whirring away inside. It won't boot up at all. I can get it into disk mode and mount onto computer, which it sees in iTunes. I can restore it and update it in disk mode, but it won't turn on as normal and the computer doesn't see it. In system profiler it sees an unknown device connected through firewire, but still doesn't mount the iPod or open in iTunes.
    Is there anything else to do, or is my iPod finally dead and face the decision of spending a lot of money on repairing it or spending a lot of money on buying a new one. Any help would be appreciated!!

  • 13" Macbook backlight out and Apple logo doesn't light up

    My display used to flicker every once in a while, and now it's completely dark.  I can turn it on and everything works except the backlight and apple logo light.  I have to shine a light on my screen to navigate and try to troubleshoot.  I started it in safe mode, but that did nothing. I reset the PRAM and still nothing.  My screen hinge appears to be separating slightly, so it may be an issue with disconnection.  I plan on getting it checked at a PeachMac store soon, but I don't have AppleCare anymore so I want to make sure I won't be wasting my money there for an easy fix.

    You have to take the computer to the Apple store or Apple Authorized Service Provider  to have it checked out.
    But you can try resetting SMC.

  • Iphone won't turn on past apple logo, can't restore. HELP

    All of a sudden tonight, my iphone 4s restarted, but it only got to the apple logo screen, then restarted again.  It was doing that repeatedly every 10 seconds or so for the last few hours.  The only thing I could do was turn it off completely but only if it wasn't plugged in.  If I plugged it into a power source it kept restarting and I couldn't even turn it off.  But turning it off didn't do anything anyway because when I turned it on again it just continued doing the same restart cycle.  I tried a reset, which had no effect at all.  I tried to do a complete restore using itunes, several times.  It starts to restore but then I get a message "The iphone (iphone) could not be restored.  An unknown error occurred (9)."  I made sure itunes and OS X were up to date, restarted my computer, and tried again a few times with the same failed result.  And now the phone doesn't continually loop through the apple logo.  Instead, after the apple logo, it shows the connect-to-itunes screen (in order to do a restore, but like I said, that doesn't work) and stays on that screen for a minute until it turns off.  (But again, if I leave it plugged in, it doesn't stay off.  It keeps turning back on and it stays at the connect-to-itunes screen until I turn it off.)
    So I don't know what options I have left.  As far as I can tell, I have a brick that lights up with an apple logo or itunes logo.
    One thing that did happen earlier today that could be related: I tried to update my iphone (I believe I have 7.0.4 and it was updating to 7.0.6?) but something weird happened during the update (can't remember exactly) and I ended up having to restart my phone without it finishing the update.  It wouldn't let me update after that, which I didn't really care about, so I just left it with the ios version I had.  Then later in the evening this happened.
    One other small thing to note (probably insignificant)-- When the phone kept going through the apple logo loop, right before the screen went black and it restarted, the apple logo would grow dim and there was sometimes a horizontal line across the screen, then it went to black.
    If anybody has any ideas, please help!  It would be much appreciated.  I don't want to have to buy a new phone so soon.  Apple products are supposed to have a long life span!  And I've never jailbroken it or done anything out of the ordinary.

  • My iphone 5 suddenly wont fully boot...it stuck on the apple logo and goes of after 20 -25 secs and comes on by itself after a minute or two but still stuck on apple logo..also i am able to see a bit of lighting on the dark screen whenever it goes of

    my iphone 5 on the ios 7.1.2 suddenly wont fully turn on...it gets stuck on the apple logo and stays like that for approximately to 90 secs then goes blank but I can see a bit of lighting  behind the dark screen....it goes off by itself and comes on by itself trying to boot but still gets stuck on the apple logo after the dim light shows....when I connect to iTunes my phone can only be recognised only in recovery mode thus if I force it into recovery mode. My main worry is I don't have a back up of any of my data...on icloud I have just less than 2GB of my data which is as a result of incomplete back up...HOW CAN I GET THIS PHONE WORKING AGAIN WITHOUT LOSING MY DATA...if I can only just recover my data I would really appreciate it as I really  need almost everything on it back...if I can only get retrieve my data and lose the phone I wouldn't mind at all....Anybody know how to resolve this??Kind Regards

    Anyone have any suggestions? or is everyone else just as clueless as me !

  • Copying iDVD preset to DVD Studio (no apple logo)

    Hi All,
    I've said that I'd author a dvd for a DOP using DVD Studio Pro 2.
    I've authored other basic DVDs using DVD studio before.
    The DOP tried something in iDVD and showed me the example of what he wanted.
    It was a simple main menu with play all or chapters, however the main menu was a motion menu, it had stills he'd chosen, traversing horizontally accross the screen, with a still he'd chosen in the background.
    It also played a music loop (he'd chosen the track) and the menu faded up with two white lines growing horizontally introducing the menu.
    This I was told was a preset in iLife/ iDVD.
    The unfortunate thing about this preset however is that it has the apple logo in the bottom right corner.
    I would like to duplicate this particular preset using DVD Studio but changing a few of the dimensions/ positions of the stills ie push them all so they wipe the screen slightly lower in the frame, and most importantly, lose the apple logo.
    Is this possible.
    Any help much appreciated.
    All the best.
    Doug

    Few things:
    1) The Apple logo doesn't appear ever in a DVD Studio Pro template
    2) You can turn off the Apple Logo in IDVD in Preferences (if memory serves...might be in the options of the template/project itself)
    3) You can't use an IDVD template in DVD Studio Pro (you can use elements in some instances, but...for all intents and purposes let's just say you can't)
    4) There is no comparable template to what you are describing in DVDSP.
    5) I would advise creating it in IDVD and simply turn off the Apple Logo

  • IPhone 3G stuck at the Apple logo screen; will not boot!

    My iPhone 3G has been working all day. I rebooted it because it was hanging when trying to use some apps, and now it's hung at the Apple logo. It will not boot fully. I have tried to reboot the phone many times but I get the same problem. I let it sit there for 30 minutes and it does nothing.
    Anyone else have this problem? Any ideas on how to fix it without doing a Restore?

    Oh, they know! I've had all of the above issues, tried every and all remedies several times, even uninstalled and reinstalled itunes. My phone froze up totally for over 24 hours after several attempts to sync and itunes closed then I had to reset, not even an apple logo, just a dim lit screen. Went to the genius bar, they replaced my phone. The tech said apple knows and is working on it.
    Note: tried to book an appointment online, none available so I went and signed the standby list.
    Luckily someone didn't show up, because they said some people wait for hours.
    The new one is doing the same thing. I have yet to sync fully. my contacts & calendar sync OK, a few apps, beyond that nothing-no music, photos, podcasts, ringtones. Itunes hangs during syncing an application and iphone times out. the only option is to close itunes and reset the phone. Upon fully reset, maybe 1 or 2 apps are installed, nothing else. Resetting takes forever, it has frozen again with the apple logo for about 12 hours, and usually about 10-30 min each reset. I have restored the new one twice. Problem is, when it freezes up or times out, itunes won't recognize the iphone at all, it says no iphone detected.
    I am now going to restore the phone again, and not attempt to install any apps until this issue is resolved. I have already spent hours on this, and really tried everything. I would rather have my music, ringtones, photos, podcasts etc than a few apps. Shame, because i've spend at least $50 in addition to numerous free apps.
    Side note: I scheduled another appointment at the genius bar when my phone was out of commission for 12 hours, they are booked for three days in advance so the issue is still widespread. Luckily I was able to finally get itunes to recognize my phone and restore.

    If there is no loading bar, it's usually a problem with a third party kext file in OS X itself.
    You can press the power button down to force a hardware shutdown, then reboot holding the shift key down on a wired or built in keyboard, this will disable them and you go around and update your third party software.
    Gray, Blue or White screen at boot, w/spinner/progress bar
    Also take this time to backup your users files off the machine if possible.
    Most commonly used backup methods
    Sometime that won't work and you need to do more

  • Apple logo comes up but ipod doesn't start

    When I turn on the device the Apple logo comes up but the ipod doesn't start and go to the menus it just stays with the logo. When I hold down the play/pause on the click wheel to put it to sleep a symbol of a triangle with an exclamation point in the center comes up along with "www.apple.com/support/ipod." I tried rebooting it with Menu/select but nothing happens.

    Unfortunately, on a "classic" iPod that uses a hard drive for storage, the most likely cause is a faulty hard drive.
    You can try putting the iPod into Disk Mode
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1363
    If that works, connect it to the computer and run iTunes.  iTunes may prompt you to do a Restore.  This will erase the iPod, re-install its software, and set it to default settings.  If the cause is data corruption or a software issue (and the hard drive has no physical problem), the Restore should fix it. 

  • My ipod 5th gen ios 7.0.6 crashed and keeps going from the apple logo, going to a black screen, back to the apple logo, then back to the black screen and so on. Furthermore, my laptop doesn't recognise that the iPod is connected. What do I do?

    Please help me out as this is very irritating. This has been happening for the last 20-30 minutes. It had roughly half battery left.

    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 and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • My iPod is stuck on the Apple logo and won't do anything! It won't turn on, doesn't give me the option to power it off, and to top it all off, it's not being recognized by my computer OR by iTunes when I plug it into my computer.

    So yeah...last night I was checking out my iPod (bored at the in-laws) and all of a sudden the screen went blank and the only thing I can get it to do is have the black screen w/ the white apple logo on it. It won't turn on, doesn't give the the option to power down, it won't charge, AND it's NOT being recognized when I plug it into my computer. Not by iTunes OR my computer. I've tried holding down the top button and the home button at the same time...nothing. And since it's not being recognized on my computer, I cannot restart it or go back to factory settings. Someone please help! I've had it for 18 months so the warranty is no longer valid and I don't know how to fix it. THANK YOU in advance!

    - I would try placing the iPod in recovery mode and then see if iTunes will see the iPod.  try both with the iPod not connected to the computer and with it connect. For recovery mode see:
    iPhone and iPod touch: Unable to update or restore
    - Next see if placing the the iPod in DFU mode will make it visible
