Apple logo shines into screen

The outline of the Apple logo shines into my screen. IT IS NOT CAUSED BY EXCESSIVE LIGHT. It is always there, and is especially noticeable on white backgrounds (as most webpages and documents have which make it extremely distracting). It is not only present when there is direct light shining on it, I know this happens, this is not what I'm asking. I'm just wondering if there is damage to the screen in some way to cause this. In fact, it is most noticeable when surrounding light is dim.
Thanks

You have to take the computer to the Apple store to have it checked out.

    Connect to iTunes and restore. If you have difficulty, you may have to put the device into Recovery Mode. See the instructions in this support document. If you can't update or restore your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support

  • IPod nano 3rd gen. Apple logo remains on screen and iTunes doesn't recognise it's plugged in, I can't even turn it off. I've tried to get to disc menu but when I hold the 'menu and select button' it reboots it doesn't recognise the select and play button

    iPod nano 3rd gen. Apple logo remains on screen and iTunes doesn't recognise it's plugged in, I can't even turn it off. I've tried to get to disc menu but when I hold the 'menu and select button' it reboots and then doesn't recognise the select and play button to show the tick. I'm helpless.

    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.
    - 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.

  • 3rd Generation Nano only gets Apple logo on main screen need a full reset?

    Was just given a 3rd generation nano for one of my kids.  I cannot seem to unlock it (apple logo only on screen).  Need to reset.  When I hold down menu and center button, it just goes back to apple logo.  Am I out of luck?

    Try manually forcing the iPod into disk mode using the instructions in this Apple support document and restoring it in iTunes.

  • Streaming audio from my IPAD to my Apple TV from Rhapsody application.  when Apple TV go into Screen Saver mode, about 5 minutes after that it stops playing the Audio Stream and goes into Sleep mode.

    I am Streaming audio from my IPAD to my Apple TV from Rhapsody application.  when Apple TV go into Screen Saver mode, about 5 minutes after that it stops playing the Audio Stream and goes into Sleep mode.  I am using the Optical Out from the Apple TV to my receiver, the Apple TV is hard Wired to the Network, the IPAD is Wirelessly attached to the network (it continues to play the Audio Stream).  When the Apple TV is turned back on it resumes playing once I manual select it for output from the IPAD.  All device are on current releases of software.  I have no Video hooked up to the Apple TV.  How do I correct this?

    Intermittent problems are often a result of interference. Interference can be caused by other networks in the neighbourhood or from household electrical items.
    You can download and install iStumbler (NetStumbler for windows users) to help you see which channels are used by neighbouring networks so that you can avoid them, but iStumbler will not see household items.
    Refer to your router manual for instructions on changing your wifi channel or adjusting your multicast rate.
    There are other types of problems that can affect networks, but this is by far the most common, hence worth mentioning first. Networks that have inherent issues can be seen to work differently with different versions of the same software. You might also try moving the Apple TV away from other electrical equipment.

  • I am using iphone 3gs since last 4 days. Till yesterday night it was working fine and i have connected this phone for charging . Morning there was apple logo in the screen and every 1mte (approx) it is blinking. I could not restart the phone.Plz help

    I am using iphone 3gs since last 4 days. Till yesterday night it was working fine and i have connected this phone for charging . Morning there was apple logo in the screen and every 1mte (approx) it is blinking. I could not restart the phone.Plz help . I have tried to reset even by pressing sleep and home button but it could not help. Please suggest. Still i have connected for charging .

    Sounds like you have corrupt backup data, if this occurs from one phone to another. Try restoring the phone as a new device, without a backup. Try using for a day before installing any other apps, etc. See if that improves the battery life. Then try syncing back applications a couple at a time. Something seems to be locking in the processor which is draining the battery.
    Do you live in an area where there are Apple Stores? If so, try making an appointment with the Genius Bar to have the device checked out.

  • I have reset my iphone 5c and now has apple logo on the screen. I have tried holding home and lock buttons for 10 seconds, but to no avail. How do i sort this please ?

    I have reset my iphone 5c and now it has the apple logo on the screen.  Nothing is happening, apart from the screen going off for a few seconds, only to go back to black screen and white apple log.  I have tried holding home and lock buttons for 10 seconds, but to no avail.  I did a reset on settings as the IOS 8 was just slowing down my phone horrendously.   How do i sort this please ?

  • My iphone 5 died so I plugged it back in to charge and it will not turn on. It will turn to the screen with the apple logo and black screen then turn off again. Any suggestions?

    My iphone 5 died so I plugged it back in to charge and it will not turn on. It will turn to the screen with the apple logo and black screen then turn off again. Any suggestions?

    I leave it charging until it gets back to full, usually it turns on after a little bit of time after plugging it in, but all its doing is going to the apple logo screen and going blank again.

  • My ipad 1 isnt working it is just showing the apple logo on the screen can anyone help me?

    my ipad 1 isnt working it is just showing the apple logo on the screen can anyone help me?
    If you can help me facetime me at [email protected] or msg me.

    It would help to know whether it ever did work, or is this a new iPad for you?  If new, you need to connect it to a Mac/PC that's running iTunes in order to register and initialize it.  If it used to work, try doing a reset.

  • Failed Leopard installation, now just show apple logo over white screen.

    I just received OS X Leopard (not the new one, I'll buy it tomorrow) in order to upgrade to the new OS X snow Leopard. During the installation (took over 30 minutes to calculate the installation time that it was supposed to be 2 hr 49 min, I don't know if that's the average installation time). After about an hour of installation appeard a big yellow triangle (warning) over a message box saying something like "Installer couldn't verify 'Essentials' on the DVD, please contact the software manofacturer or try to install later". After restart the iMac it never rebooted, just shows the apple logo with the spinning circle, I left it that way last night while I was searching on the net for some help and iMac kept doing the same over 24hrs (apple logo over white screen). After reading on the forums I reboot with command+s and these are the two messages that are coming once and again in an endless loop:
    First Message:

    The number [2228] goes to [2229] then [2230] to the fist msg again, then [2231] to the second msg,.... in an endless loop.
    Before this I have never experienced any trouble with this iMac. I don't know what to do now because it doesn't reboot and I don't have any boot disk besides TechTool Deluxe.

    "Ok. But once I got the replacement disk the iMac will boot with the installation disk even though it now stills "gone" and unable to boot by itself? I mean, the installation disk is a bootable disk by itself?"
    Read what you wrote and clarify it. You got the replacement disk? Yes or no. Yes the installer disk is a bootable disk. How else did you try to install Leopard?
