HT1414 My ipad only showes the apple it does not start up

When I turn on my ipad all i get is the apple, it does not turn on completely.

Did you try 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.

My new apple tv does not start after showing apple logo in LG Tv

I have got new atv3 and hooked it to hdmi port 3 on my LG tv
After displaying logo ao apple it shows no signal
I had also tried to restore software of apple tv but still problem remains.
Please help me what to do ?
Thanks

I would test with another tv it could be that the lg does not support the resolution the appletv is trying to send
with the other tv for testing one could then try changing the reslotion and test with the LG again

Com.apple.wikid does not start. Generates 4000 error lines per 10 minutes

As of recently, without an up to now identifiable reason, wikid is failing to start. In system.log I see thousands of loglines per every few minutes, but I can't find what the real cause of the issue is or how to solve it. Does anybody have any idea?
The loglines I get every 8 seconds are:

Curious thing is that in /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.apple.wikid.plist I see:
<plist version="1.0">
<dict>
        <key>Disabled</key>
        <true/>
</dict>
</plist>
Which I interpret as 'wikid is disabled', but then how come it's trying to start....

Hey Everyone - a quick update. A very helpful friend gave me a hand figuring this out turns out the wikid process was failing because of a blog plist file. Replacing the metadata.plist files for all the users (whom had blogs in the collab data store) along with all the metadata.plist files for the groups as well got the service back up and running. When I say replace, I mean we renamed them all metadataplist.old and the system rebuilt the files and then loaded up without crashing.
I'll try and better document this whole issue (with more research into the cause) and update this for anyone facing this in the future.

My 2011 MacBook Pro does not start and stop after the apple appear, they said that the problem is a video problem and need to change the logic board. Cost almost same to buy a new one. Somebody have the same problem?

I have a MacBook Pro early 2011. Does not start. After the apple show, a blank screen appear. The service said that the problem is with the video plaquue in the logic board. Need to change. Cost lmmost the same than a new MacBook Pro. Somebody has the same problem? What we can do?

I hate to break this to you, but life isn't fair. If your job is that critically in need of a computer, then you should have a spare to use for just this kind of situation or have your employer provide you with a computer to use.
Computers break down, just like cars. If your car breaks down do you curse the car maker or get it fixed? Surely, you paid more for your car than the computer.
This is reality. Best get used to it because it won't get any better.

My imac does not start anymore (stops at the screen with the apple and a rotating circle). An idea what I could try to make it start again?

My Imac does not start anymore.
==> What I have already done:
1) I tried with the tigger dvd to reinstall. It didn't succeed.
2) Via the single mode, when starting I got the message "disk0s2: I/0 error" several times. After that I got "Root device is mounted read-only"
3) Nevertheless, I tried the "fsck -yf" function. After checking "Journal HFS Plus volume", "extends overflow file", "catalog file"... and invalid record count
==> /dev/rdisk0s2 (hfs) EXITED WITH SIGNAL 8
Can someone advices me? I red on the internet I could reformat the disk... loosing all the data I didn't backed up. How am I suppose to reformat?
Thanks in advance,
Fred

Reset the SMC: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3964
Reset the PRAM: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=Mac/10.6/en/26871.html
Restart the computer while holding down your mouse button which if you hold it down long enough (5 minutes at most) should eject the disk
If the disk still doesn't come out at that point then you need hardware evaluation;
contact Apple, contact an Apple Authorized Service Provider, or make an appointment with an Apple Retail Store.

Disconnect all devices from the computer then do the following:
Boot up from your Snow Leopard Install DVD while holding down the "c" key.
Select the language you wish to use, and then choose "Disk Utility" from the menu bar.
Your HD should appear in a panel on the left hand side of the window which opens. Select it and then click on the "repair disk" button in the right hand section of the window.
Once this process has been completed restart your computer and repair permissions directly from Disk Utility.
If Disk Utility is unable to complete the repair, you will need to use a stronger 3rd party utility like DiskWarrior, Techtool PRO (not Deluxe) or Drive Genius.
Troubleshoot the spinning beach ball/freezing & crashing

TS1574 My apple macbook pro retina 15'' ME664 has problems with sound.Either there will be no sound at all or at startup there il be very scary and broken sound and afterwards still there would be no sound.Secondly , it does not start in one shot.

My apple macbook pro retina 15'' ME664 has problems with sound.Either there will be no sound at all or at startup there il be very scary and broken sound and afterwards still there would be no sound.Secondly , it does not start in one shot.atleast 2 to 3 times pressing power button for longer time starts it up and afterwards still there will be no sound. Please help

This morning i was not able to hear sound on my recently purchased macbookpro retina 15 inch model.My attempts to resolve this issue by going to system preferences and removing the mute box that was ticked as active. i had downloaded much earlier a mac version of logmein app and noticed that in the sound box noted above that there was a bar indicating that the default was now to logmein. i had never used this app. Why it started today, i have no idea. I moved the logmein application to trash and deleted the app , however it did not remove the default option which still blocked the sound.
Going to a macforum gave the tha anser that to remove the logmein app, it first had to be reinstalled a nd them use the uninstaller option ftrom the dropdown menu. for now that has resolved the failure to allow sound oputput.

When you turn on the ipad2 it does not start up properly. The rotating disk that happens when you turn off the ipad appears after the apple logo comes up

When you turn on the ipad2 it does not start up properly. The rotating disk that happens when you turn off the ipad appears after the apple logo comes up during start-up and stays there for ten minutes. Then, the ipad will start up properly.

Have you tried a reset ? Press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

When I switch on, the Apple and progress icons appear but it does not start.

When I switch on, the Apple and progress icons appear but it does not start. I tried resetting PRAM, Utilities, everything. It says the system is OK. I even reinstalled Tiger, but nothing has changed.

Given that you were able to reinstall the OS, you must be able to boot from the install disc.
Have you run Apple Hardware Test?
Tried running on just one RAM module, then switch it to other slot, then repeat with other module?
Safe Boot?
Checked SMART status?
Run Repair Disk:Boot from install disc (insert disc > restart > immediately hold down ckey and keep holding it until you see “Preparing Installation”) > at firstscreen select the language and click Continue > click on the Utilities Menuin the menu bar > open Disk Utility > select your HD in the panel on theleft side> click Repair Disk at bottom of main window. Run this at leasttwice, and keep running it until it says “appears ok” twice in a row. If thatdoesn’t happen, you may need a stronger utility such as DiskWarrior or if thedirectory is damaged beyond repair, you may need to reinstall the OS, or youmay have a damaged HD (repair utilities can only repair the directorystructure, not the HD itself). When this is finished, quit Disk Utility, quitthe installer, and restart. Once booted normally, go to Applications >Utilities > Disk Utility and run Repair Permissions.
