Apple tv 2 is stuck on apple boot screen

My apple tv 2 is stuck on apple boot screen. What do I need to do?

Try pulling ALL the cables for a moment and trying again, if the problem remains try restoring it by connecting it to iTunes with a micro USB cable.

Resetting all settings on iPhone makes it stuck at the boot screen endlessly

This is the second time my iPhone stuck at the boot screen and won't boot again until of course I restore all over again.
This problem happened on iOS 8 and iOS 8.1.2
Does anyone have an explanation for this problem or the iOS until this release is buggy?

Hi Try a Reboot press and hold power button and menu button hold both down until you see Apple Logo. This may take up to 50 Seconds. Cheers Brian

S90 stuck at the boot screen

My S90 is stuck at the boot screen. It shows the booth screen for hours now. If I switch the power button it will not swtich off the phone, but restart it again to the boot screen. What should I do with it? I considered that I could let it run out of battery, but I am not sure how much the phone can run on a simple booth screen with just the lenovo log on the screen. Also not sure if once I recharge it would not have the same problem. Any advice how to solve this?

I have no idea how it got stuck at the boot screen (the one after powered by android). The phone was out of battery, I connected it to the charger, immediately turned it on, and it got stuck. Draining did not help so I tried to fully charge it. That did not help. It was stuck at the boot screen until 5am (local time) so I had to follow the other instructions. That got me to a menu that let me choose the language between English and Chinese. Then I could reboot the device, power it off, install updates (or something similar), or wipe up device. Reboot or Power still got me back to being stuck at the boot screen. Install updates did not work. So I had to wipe up the data. That gave me two options (a) fuse wipe up data and (b) fuse format data (or something similar). No idea what the difference is, or what that does, but I was worried I will loose all my photos stored on the phone. But since I had no choice I decided to press "fuse wipe up data". That seems to have factory reset the phone. It started normally and it appears as after a factory resent (all my own apps and settings are gone). I had to pick the language and agree with Lenovo license agreement, etc. However, for some reason, all my photos were still in the phone's gallery (why?), so I am now copying them to the pc. So that's how far I got so far. Thanks for your very valuable help and advice. Let's see if I encounter any more issues with it or any other peculiarities.

T420S Stuck at Thinkpad boot screen - Cont. loop

I was trying to fresh install Win 8.1. It has Win8 previously and was working fine.
After I plugged in the Win 8.1 boot usb, it stuck at thinkpad boot screen and cont. rebooting.
Only thing changed in BIOS is moving USB boot up higher and disabled Computrace. Earlier it was enabled.
I can still get to BIOS by F1.
Looked all the USB port. None of USB ports are damaged or pins shorting each other. I also tested the HD by putting in my other working T500. HD is fine. Restored BIOS to default as well but no luck.
Any idea?
Tried all the method including CMOS reset, but no help.
Thanks for the help!

No, it does stuck in the same loop. Continuously booting and showing Thinkpad boot screen again and again.
I took the HDD out and no USB connected. same behaviour with or without HDD.
In BIOS startup is set to both - Legacy and UFEI.
Only change I had made prior to installing Win 8.1 is turn off Intel Anti theft module under security in BIOS.

Installation stuck at grey boot screen on Macbook Pro 4,1 (Early 2008)

Hey guys,
I would appreciate any help you guys can give me since I would really like to upgrade my laptop to Mountain Lion.
Computer: Macbook Pro 17" 4,1 (Early 2008)
RAM: 4 GB RAM
Hard drive: 128 SSD Hard drive
Video card: NVIDIA GeForce 8600M GT
Current OS: Snow Leopard 10.6.8
Step I have taken but failed to properly install the OS.
Dowloaded Mountain Lion at least 3 times from the App store to make sure the download wasn't corrupted.
I even tried making a Lion Bootdisk so I can install Mountain Lion on a USB drive (Install ESD.dmg).
I have even tried installing Lion first thinking I would take it one version at a time but gets stuck on boot screen too.
I even changed my hard drive to an SSD drive to see any difference.
Each time I install Mountain Lion or Lion, everything is good until the installer has to restart the laptop.
Laptop gets stuck at the grey boot screen with the Apple logo and the loading circle. Nothing ever happens after.
Even waited for 7 hours but no changes in the boot screen.
I always had to use/boot to the Snow Leopard CD so I can restart the laptop back to the Snow Leopard drive.
What can I do? I would appreciate any help at all.
Thanks!
John

Stuck at grey boot screen!

So yesterday i turned my laptop on to find out it wasnt booting up past the grey screen. Later on i did some trouble shooting and finally got it past to the main desktop screen. Now, recently i had just uninstalled and deleted my Windows 7 Pro partition i had put onto my laptop a while back but when doing so, when i tried getting my hard drive back to full storage amount by deleting the partition,it gave me some error. I believe i figured out the error and was able to use my laptop from then. Once my computer was letting me get to the desktop screen, once i would click on an app it would often give me the pin wheel and stop me from clicking on anything else for a good minute.
Today,i had backed everything up and thought that i would just reformat and re install OSX to remedy the whole issue. This was not acheived. I had been able to get to the desktop screen a few times but still got the pin wheel situation going on. A couple tries later im stuck here at my grey boot screen. No Apple sign showing up, just stuck. Im usually a very computer savey person but this is kind of just making me wonder. I ordered a new hard drive (which i was going to upgrade anyways) but wanted to know if this even could possibly be the issue. I upgraded from my stock hard drive about 6 months after i had gotten my laptop (mid 2009 model). The last 3 years ive been traveling very often, flying frequently and using it often for playing my DJ gigs. Im wondering if alltitude and hot clubs could take a tole on a hard drive when its running hot? I have scheduled appoint for the genius bar tomorrow at 2pm but i thought id give the Apple community a try to see if we could troubleshoot it ourselfs. Any input would be great! Thanks!

Reinstall OS X without erasing the drive
Do the following:
1. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions
Boot from your Snow Leopard Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer.
If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior and/or Tech Tool Pro to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.
2. Reinstall Snow Leopard
If the drive is OK then quit DU and return to the installer. Proceed with reinstalling OS X. Note that the Snow Leopard installer will not erase your drive or disturb your files. After installing a fresh copy of OS X the installer will move your Home folder, third-party applications, support items, and network preferences into the newly installed system.
Download and install the Combo Updater for the version you prefer from support.apple.com/downloads/.

IMac Stuck at Grey boot screen - How do i recover files?

I bought one of the new 21.5 " intel imacs last year and upon powering it up today it just gets stuck on the grey screen with an apple logo. It has a bar which it loads up underneath in about 2 minutes but after that the little loading wheel animation spins for as long as i leave it.
I have quite a few files which i really want to recover so i was just wondering if there was any way to do so?.
I have tried installing from the disc but it says i cannot install on my hard drive.
Is there anything i can do?

If your hard disk has crashed (and I think it has) once you get it replaced simply restore from Time Machine or the other backup scheme you have been using. If you haven't been backing up you can request your old HD back and will have to pay a data recovery service to try and salvage any files.
This may be a painful lesson on why you should be backing up, now that Time Machine is as simple as connecting an external HD to your computer there really isn't any excuse to not backup.
You can run Apple Hardware Test following the instructions here. If you get errors post back what they are and we will try to let you know what they mean. You should also plan on taking your machine into an AASP to be serviced:
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1509
You can also try a SMC reset however I don't know if it will help:
_SMC RESET_
• Shut down the computer.
• Unplug the computer's power cord.
• Press and hold the power button for 5 seconds.
• Release the power button.
• Attach the computers power cable.
• Press the power button to turn on the computer.

ThinkPad hangs on boot - stuck at Lenovo boot screen

I'm experiencing random boot issues with a brank new thinkpad yoga 20CD0038PB win 8.1 pro. Once the system stalls on the boot screen the fn light stays on and I cannot even access bios. Powering down and keeping power button pressed for several second doesn't help either, However If I leave the computer powered down for and hour or longer it usually boots like nothing happened. Then the issue comes back intermittently with a restart or sometimes a preceeding blue screen.
Sometimes when the issue occures it also reports hdd0 error, and lenovo sent me a new hdd which I replaced that this has not fixed the issue.
I have the latest BIOS GQET29WW 1.09. I've run memory and disk tests using Lenovo Solution Center and memory tests in bios and they were ok.
On the BIOS download page I've found references to some issues regarding boot hangs with earlier versions of bios (1.7).
At this point I'm stuck. Anyone experiencing similar issues?

I am also experiencing this problem Like the OP, it seems random and has occured from day one.
Boots to Lenovo Screen
Fails to show spinning circle
F1 light stays on
Nothing further happens (longest I have left it for is ~ 5 min).
If I hold the power button down for several seconds, I can switch the machine off. Usually waiting 30-60 seconds and re-starting is sufficient for a normal boot and start up. On occassion, I have to go through the shut down cycle twice before I can successfully start the computer.
Unlike the OP, I have not seen any error messages, or blue screen.

MBP stuck at gray boot screen with apple logo, loading wheel, and loading bar

Today i was using my mac book pro and it was working just fine, and i shut it off and when i tried to use it later I get stuck at this screen. I have never seen this loading bar and it doesnt seem to do any thing because it only goes as far as it is in the picture then it dissapears leaving me stuck at the apple logo and the loading wheel.
Sadly i cant get my warranty information since i cant get past boot up, and the serial number in the battery area is to small to read (the letters or numbers are literaly blobs)
I have tried holding shift at boot and it does nothing and holding alt during boot only shows the hard drive icon, but when i click it im back to stage 1.

Your Mac is attempting to fix your drive and it's not succeeding, you can let it go for some time and see if it clears up.
https://support.apple.com/kb/TS3148
Do these steps.
If on 10.6 stick a clean and polished 10.6 disk into the computer and reboot holding the c key down.
If on 10.7 hold the command and r keys and boot, you'll enter Lion Recovery Partition.
Under the Utilities Menu is Disk Utility, use it to Repair Disk (note any failures!) and Repair Permissions (ignore list)
See if your computer boots, if not repeat the above steps and use Disk Utility to format a blank external drive, Partiiton Tab, Option: GUID, format OS X extended (J) and click apply.
Next quit and install 10.6/10.7 onto the external drive, when that completes, hold the option key down and you can boot from it. Retrieve your files off the internal drive to the external.
If you cant' see your internal drive in Disk Utility, it's likely failed.
Sometimes you can software like Data Rescue, installed on another Mac or a external boot drive and "read" the failed drive for any salvagable data, provided it's still working mechnically. Good thing about DataResue supposedly is you don't pay unless it's sure it can recover some of your files. I never used it as I make many backups, or bootable clones.
Mechanically failed drives data can only be recovered by platter dissection, a very expensve process.
There is several ways to read the drive, take it out and place it in a enclosure or use a IDE/SATA to USB adapter cable with another Mac or PC (with MacDrive) or use another Mac and Firewire Target Disk Mode (hold T on the sick Mac)
https://support.apple.com/kb/ht1661
If the drive works and you got your data off of it, you can erase it (use the Zero option, GUID/OS X Ext.J) and reinstall OS X, same user name as before, update, (Repair Disk from disk if on 10.6.8) install programs and return files last (and in that order exactly) your machine will be as close as possible to the way it was.
Lastly, consider making a clone, this way you can simply option boot and use that.

MacBook 2008 or 2009(?) stuck on grey boot screen with Apple logo and rotating gear under it.

See now, the real problem is that I can't even try Disk Utility because I don't have the original disks seeing as I bought this MacBook off of Amazon. I tried Safe Mode, Single User Mode, & resetting the PRAM. Basically everything I can do without the original disks. How do I do this?! Please help for I'm desperate.

Sounds like you've already read this Apple note. No bootable external backup hard drive? You might call Apple support to see if they still have the original OS X disks for your system, or you can buy OS X 10.6 from the online Apple for $20, which would be an upgrade, assuming you have at least 1GB of memory. Otherwise, take it into an Apple store for assistance.

Hi shaligram27 and welcome to community,
Kindly remove the battery and connect the power adapter then check if the display comes.
If the issue continues and display does not come then it is the issue related to system board.

Samsung Galaxy S4 stuck on Verizon boot screen after installing update

A few days ago my phone prompted me to install a software update, which I did. Since then, the phone (which was functioning perfectly fine before I installed the update) started acting up. I kept getting messages about apps that stopped working, then the phone started randomly rebooting itself, and now it has been stuck on the Verizon Startup screen. After reading several posts on this site I tried the following: (1) remove battery and reboot; (2) try reboot in safety mode keeping the volume button down during start up; (3) empty cache using menu that appears when holding volume button up during reboot; and finally (4) delete all data and restore factory settings (using same method as under (3)). All of this didn't work and I'm still stuck on the same white Verizon screen.
Of course this happens while I am travelling abroad for 10 days and have no access to Verizon until I'm back. Is there anything I can do that I haven't tried yet? Or is my only option to get a new phone?
Reading some of the other posts, it seems that more and more people are having the same issue after the latest software update. VERIZON - PLEASE HELP!!!
