Apple logo seems to allow light to pass through it onto the display

Whenever the screen is on low light, or when the backlight is off completely, I can see a yellowy light in centre of the screen which appears to be the apple logo allowing light through. As you can probably guess this is very annoying, is there any way to fix it?

Really?
Scrobby... the Apple logo is just a cut out in the aluminum casing with a plastic insert that allows the displays backlight to shine through. Unfortunately, it will work in both directions... particularly if there is a bright light shining through the back. You can simply tape something over the logo that doesn't let light through... or put some type of skin or hard cover on (other than a transparent one). You just need to block the light from shining through the back.

Can someone help me get my IPOD Touch 3g started? It will only flash the Apple logo off and on. Has been through restore multiple times on different computers, and still will not start.

I have tried restoring the ipod on different computers, one Vista, and one 7. On both, the restore process seems to complete just as it should, until the point where it says "your IPOD will now restart and will appear in listed devices. This IPOD never restarts. The Apple logo just stays on for approximately 30 seconds and then the screen turns off for five or ten seconds and the logo comes back on, over and over for approximately forty five minutes or so, Occasionally the "connect to USB" will come back on, but that is rare. When that does happen, the I-Tunes recognizes it again as an IPOD that needs to complete the restore process. VERRRRRY AGGRAVATING!!!

Time for an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store. It appears you have a hardware problem.

My ipod 4G wont go past the apple logo when I turn it on - it will stay on the apple logo for few min, then blanks out and back to the apple logo. Tried reset option/troubleshoot several times. Also wont show up on computer at all when I plug in to USB.

Any tips are very much appreciated.

Place the iPod Touch into DFU mode. This will be similar to what the factory would do to install the iOS onto new iOS devices.
Placing it into DFU mode will allow you to "format" and install the current iOS for that device.
To place your iOS device into DFU mode.
First connect you iOS device to you computer.
Open iTunes if not already open
Now turn off your iOS device using the power swipe.
Press the home and sleep button on your iOS device for 10 seconds.
Release the sleep button but carry on holding down the home button. For another 10 seconds.
Your iOS device should now be on DFU. Click on restore and iTunes will download the latest iOS for your device.
Hopefully that sorts it if not, you will have to go to a service centre or call Apple Care up and get them to collect it and repair it. (replace it) Or go into an Apple Store.

My iPod says "cannot be synced. The required file cannot be found. Always when half way through a sync. It also shows apple logo when I try to access photos and I think the issues are linked. Any ideas?

My ipod touch 4g won't turn on, even if i reset it. If i reset it it just brings up the apple logo for about 10-15 minutes, flashes white, then repeats the before mentioned. Has anyone else had this problem and/or know how to fix it?

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

- 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.
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

I did an auto software update on my iMac, which included a restart. When the machine restarted it's stuck with an Apple logo and spinning wheel. I've tried all of the key strokes that are supposed to work, but nothing has. Any suggestions? Thanks!

Gray screen could be any number of things, bad third party at boot kext file, a bad Apple one, a bad install/upgrade of OS X, drive corruption etc.

HT4528 I can't see the new light blue font on many of the displays. Is there a way to change this color?

I can't see the new light blue font on many of the displays. Is there a way to change this color?

No you can change your wallpaper to make the font stand out more on your homepages and folders or you can adjustr the font size, bold and contrast here:
Settings > General > Accessibility
NOTE: Turning Bold text on will force your phone to reboot.

Apple logo is it a light ?

if it is how do i turn it on it looks like a light :P

The Apple logo below the LCD screen on the iMac does not light up. However, it is where the Infrared Sensor for the Remote Control is located on those models equipped with built-in IR. A few folks with the new 24" inch models have reported that they can occasionally see an LED shining from behind the Apple logo on the logic board.

TS3274 After few minutes of charging my ipad 2 it's coming on and i can see the Apple logo but it's not going passed that and the battery is not getting charged

Need help with my Ipad 2, after few minutes of charging the ipad comes on, i can see the apple logo and stops there and the battery doesn't get full charge

Have you tried rebooting the iPad?
Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.
If the iPad will still not turn on completely, then you should probably restore the iOS software.

My iphone 4 has frozen. I can not slide to unlock nor shut the phone down. It flashes the apple logo from time to time but will not respond to the touch screen.

My iphone 4 has frozen while I held the button down to try and access voice command. Now it will not allow me to slide and unlock. Won't respond to the shut down button on top nor any touch screen commands. The apple logo appears from time to time but mostly it shows my wallpaper and the time. Can you help me out ?

Try resetting your iPhone by pressing the home and sleep buttons until you see the Apple logo, ignoring the slider. Takes about 5-15 secs of button holding and you won't lose any data or settings.

IPad 2 stuck on apple logo and not charging but keeps rebooting without getting to the lock screed

My iPad 2 ran out of battery last night while I was playing a game on it, it keeps attempting to reboot but only gets as far as the apple logo before powering off, displaying low battery screen and rebooting again, it has been on it's charger all night, I have tried resetting it but it just starts up again, can anyone tell me how to force it to shut down so it can try to charge before i try it again? (I can't get to the lock or the screen and pressing the power button and the home button together won't work) I thought the charger/cable may have been the problem but no cable or charger seems to work.
It doesn't seem to matter to it if it's connected to a computer or not

I am having the exact same problem!! did anyone figure anything out with this?!?!?!
it just keeps trying to reboot and it only gets as far as the logo then it'll reboot again!!

HT4623 I phone 5 failed to open up, black screen with apple logo only. Is this a software problem or change the battery?

My Iphone 5 originally came from Japan. Being resident of the Phil., I let a Technician open it by using x-sim. But now, the maximim charging is up to 3 minutes only. Later on it goes down to 1 minute until it stopped opening up. Only black screen with an apple logo appearing sometimes when plugged to power outlet. Tried to press the power on, but it still wont open.
What might be the caise of all this. Is this a software or hardware problem? Or is it the battery that the technician suggested?

When you answer your own question, you don't really need to post it in a support community. Go to the technician and seek your solution there. Apple can do nothing for you after unauthorized service.
