Black screen after Apple Logo on Boot up / Start up

I am curious to know if others have experienced this? After iOS 8 update on my iPad 3 (The New iPad) 3rd Gen. the screen stays black for like 8 to 10 seconds after the Apple Logo disappears? And I have noticed it is not snappy / quick as it was before and when open apps it seems sluggish and freezes up. Is this a bug? If someone can help it would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance for help.

Thats exactly The issue I am having. i turn my I pad 3 on and the Apple logo comes on. Then it goes blank for a couple of minutes ( black screen) then enter passcode screen comes on. Then it completely goes off again for another couple of minutes.Then decides to come back on. None of my apps work properly at all now, and when I load safari it's lob sidded. If you get a solution can you help me too

  • Black screen after apple logo please help

    Hi Everyone,
    I have problem with my macbook 13" 2008 model for starting. I am using this macbook for almost 4 years without a problem. I just upgrade RAM to 2G and install Lion on my macbook recently.It seem to working about one week. One of the day, i left my macbook at home without shutdowning. I am not able to wake him back after i back from my work.So, i decided force to shutdown and restart.Then, I would turn it on and it'd go to the grey screen with the Apple logo for a few seconds and then go to the icon that is a circle with a line through it.After that black out again. I have try resetting the SMC and still don't work. I noticed that my battery charger light is flashing too.
    Thanks in advance,
    Regards,

    I'm trying to do that. Though iTunes wouldn't recognize the iPhone. It's just stuck on that black screen with the apple logo on it. :/

  • Black screen after apple logo startup

    Hi everybody,
    I've been using an atv (2nd g.) for about a month but last night during the screensaver (random images) the image went black. The little led was working but no images on the tv. I then rebooted using the remote (menu -) and I can see the apple logo but as soon as the boot procedure ends the tv goes black again and I can't see any menu. I tried to unplug everything for an hour but the problem remains.
    Should i try with a factory restore? (is it possible only via itunes?)
    any idea?
    Thanks
    Massimo

    If it's not able to load and you are unable to get to the menu commands to undertake a restore then you will need to connect the Apple TV to your computer using a micro USB cable and restore via iTunes.

  • 4s bricked after trying new update, stuck with black screen with apple logo how can i fix this

    Update bricked my 4s
    phone , stuck with black screen with apple logo .. 
    how can I fix this

    Greetings r1042,
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
    I understand that your iPhone is not booting up past the Apple logo. In this situation, I would recommend working through the troubleshooting steps located in the attached article.
    If your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch doesn't respond or doesn't turn on - Apple Support
    If your device gets stuck during startup
    When starting up, you might see the Apple logo or a red or blue screen for a long time, or your device might restart again. Try these steps:
    Make sure that you have iTunes 12 or later on your computer.
    Put your device in recovery mode.
    When you get the option to restore or update, select Update. This will reinstall iOS without erasing your data.
    Have a great day,
    Joe

  • After wiping phone to sell phone will not turn on, it stays on a black screen with apple logo.after forced reboot, it goes to same exact screen. any ideas?

    my brothers girlfriend gave me her old iPhone. the last thing she did to the working phone was to wipe it to erase all her private info. however instad of booting up like normal, all i get is a black screen with apple logo. ive forced a reboot and it goes to same screen. sometimes it will turn off and reboot by itself, and occasionally it wil give a low battery icon, and it will show it charging for a few min then go back to black screen with Appple logo. any ideas anyone?

    Try to charge it for about 10min using th adapter, then connect to your computer in recovery mode, explained here: iOS: Unable to restore

  • Hello my MBP 15" stops at grey screen after apple logo disappears

    hello, my MBP 15" stops at grey screen after apple logo disappears, what can i do about this? ive tried booting into safe mode but screen turns blue with black lines also tried resetting NVRAM and PVRAM but still stops at grey screen, also tried using applejack, it shows no problems at all, says my disk volume is ok but the screen still stops at grey during start up, havent tried the installation disk thing because i dont have my installation disk with me

    Take each of these steps that you haven't already tried. Stop when the problem is resolved.
    Step 1
    The first step in dealing with a startup failure is to secure the data. If you want to preserve the contents of the startup drive, and you don't already have at least one current backup, you must try to back up now, before you do anything else. It may or may not be possible. If you don't care about the data that has changed since the last backup, you can skip this step.   
    There are several ways to back up a Mac that is unable to start. You need an external hard drive to hold the backup data.
         a. Start up from the Recovery partition, or from a local Time Machine backup volume (option key at startup.) When the OS X Utilities screen appears, launch Disk Utility and follow the instructions in this support article, under “Instructions for backing up to an external hard disk via Disk Utility.”
    b. If you have access to a working Mac, and both it and the non-working Mac have FireWire or Thunderbolt ports, start the non-working Mac in target disk mode. Use the working Mac to copy the data to another drive. This technique won't work with USB, Ethernet, Wi-Fi, or Bluetooth.
    c. If the internal drive of the non-working Mac is user-replaceable, remove it and mount it in an external enclosure or drive dock. Use another Mac to copy the data.
    Step 2
    If the startup process stops at a blank gray screen with no Apple logo or spinning "daisy wheel," then the startup volume may be full. If you had previously seen warnings of low disk space, this is almost certainly the case. You might be able to start up in safe mode even though you can't start up normally. Otherwise, start up from an external drive, or else use either of the techniques in Steps 1b and 1c to mount the internal drive and delete some files. According to Apple documentation, you need at least 9 GB of available space on the startup volume (as shown in the Finder Info window) for normal operation.
    Step 3
    Sometimes a startup failure can be resolved by resetting the NVRAM.
    Step 4
    If you use a wireless keyboard, trackpad, or mouse, replace or recharge the batteries. The battery level shown in the Bluetooth menu item may not be accurate.
    Step 5
    If there's a built-in optical drive, a disc may be stuck in it. Follow these instructions to eject it.
    Step 6
    Press and hold the power button until the power shuts off. Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed to start up, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Use a different keyboard and/or mouse, if those devices are wired. If you can start up now, one of the devices you disconnected, or a combination of them, is causing the problem. Finding out which one is a process of elimination.
    Step 7
    If you've started from an external storage device, make sure that the internal startup volume is selected in the Startup Disk pane of System Preferences.
    Start up in safe mode. Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a Fusion Drive or a software RAID, you can’t do this. Post for further instructions.
    Safe mode is much slower to start and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including wireless networking on certain Macs.
    The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know the login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
    When you start up in safe mode, it's normal to see a dark gray progress bar on a light gray background. If the progress bar gets stuck for more than a few minutes, or if the system shuts down automatically while the progress bar is displayed, the startup volume is corrupt and the drive is probably malfunctioning. In that case, go to Step 10. If you ever have another problem with the drive, replace it immediately.
    If you can start and log in in safe mode, empty the Trash, and then open the Finder Info window on the startup volume ("Macintosh HD," unless you gave it a different name.) Check that you have at least 9 GB of available space, as shown in the window. If you don't, copy as many files as necessary to another volume (not another folder on the same volume) and delete the originals. Deletion isn't complete until you empty the Trash again. Do this until the available space is more than 9 GB. Then restart as usual (i.e., not in safe mode.)
    If the startup process hangs again, the problem is likely caused by a third-party system modification that you installed. Post for further instructions.
    Step 8
    Launch Disk Utility in Recovery mode (see Step 1.) Select the startup volume, then run Repair Disk. If any problems are found, repeat until clear. If Disk Utility reports that the volume can't be repaired, the drive has malfunctioned and should be replaced. You might choose to tolerate one such malfunction in the life of the drive. In that case, erase the volume and restore from a backup. If the same thing ever happens again, replace the drive immediately.
    This is one of the rare situations in which you should also run Repair Permissions, ignoring the false warnings it may produce. Look for the line "Permissions repair complete" at the end of the output. Then restart as usual.
    Step 9
    Reinstall the OS. If the Mac was upgraded from an older version of OS X, you’ll need the Apple ID and password you used to upgrade.
    Step 10
    Do as in Step 9, but this time erase the startup volume in Disk Utility before installing. The system should automatically restart into the Setup Assistant. Follow the prompts to transfer the data from a Time Machine or other backup.
    Step 11
    This step applies only to models that have a logic-board ("PRAM") battery: all Mac Pro's and some others (not current models.) Both desktop and portable Macs used to have such a battery. The logic-board battery, if there is one, is separate from the main battery of a portable. A dead logic-board battery can cause a startup failure. Typically the failure will be preceded by loss of the settings for the startup disk and system clock. See the user manual for replacement instructions. You may have to take the machine to a service provider to have the battery replaced.
    Step 12
    If you get this far, you're probably dealing with a hardware fault. Make a "Genius" appointment at an Apple Store, or go to another authorized service provider.

  • Ipod 4 is displaying blue frozen screen and black screen with apple logo. I try to turn power off but as soon as it goes out it automatically reboots. Plugged it into the usb port on my mac and it doesnt do anything. It doesnt appear in Itunes. Help?

    Let the battery fully darain. After charging for an least an hour try a reset and restore. Use Recovery mode if necessary.
    If not successful, then time for an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

  • Black Screen with Apple Logo randomly appears.

    HELP! When I'm using my 60 gig 5th gen. ipod...I listen to a song, or watch a movie and after 2-5 the song/movie stops, and the black screen with apple logo appears. It almost seems like the ipod is just reseting itself or something. I don't understand the problem.
    eMac   Mac OS X (10.4.3)  

    Hello!! I had the same issue. (with the 30 Gig) Eventually, my iPod went berserk, and kept reseting over and over until the battery died.
    I did fix it. It's pretty simple, in fact. Warning: ALthough i hate to say it, you need to update to iPod software 1.1. There are several bugs with this update, see the thread with all the replys. However, it seems to be more annoyance than real issue, and 1.1 completely, utterly stoped the apple logo screen. The saving of my battery, and prevention of the resets, to me, outweighs the minor annoyances of glitches with the update.
    Glitches i've noticed: holding the menu button no longer turns on/off the back light. Some videos no longer copy to the iPod, despite the fact that iTunes can play them, and the used to copy, and are within iPod's capabilities. They are generally converted with a program other than QuickTime. There are others people hae noticed, but that's all that i've seen so far.
    Since you have Mac 10, simply do a software-update, and download all the neccessary software. Update the iPod.
    Some videos are not likely going to copy to the iPod. This is due to the update. You need to re-encode them. If you don't want to pay for QT Pro, there's a free utility to covert nearly any video to iPod format. It's called iSquint. (do a search on versiontracker.com) I've used it a lot in the last few days, and it's great! The videos it converts seem perfectly suited to iPod, despite the update! Unfortunately, there seems to be no way around the error iTunes gives you about not-copying videos due to iPods's inability to play a video without a re-encode.
    Hopefully, this will help you out!

  • Iphone 5 got wet last week.  Been in rice until today.  It turned on and worked fine, I could see a water spot in the middle but still worked fine, 3 hours in it shut off to black screen with apple logo.  Any ideas what to do?

    Iphone 5 got wet last week.  Been in rice until today.  It turned on and worked fine, I could see a water spot in the middle but still worked fine, 3 hours in it shut down to the black screen with apple logo.  Screen stays up for 10 seconds ago and then goes black and then black screen with apple logo comes back.  Any ideas what to do?

    At this point it's likely that the iPhone has suffered damage and you'll have to take or send it to Apple for replacement. If you have AppleCare+ coverage on the iPhone, the cost will be US $49. Otherwise the cost will be US $229.

  • MSI R9 270X - Black Screen after Win7 logo

    Hello there.
    About a week ago I upgraded my PC, buying several components and putting it to work. Here's the specs.
    Main Board: M5A97 EVO R2.0
    Bios Version: Latest
    Video Card: MSI Radeon R9 270X TwinFrozr OC Edition 2Gb
    PSU: Don't know
    12v rail Rating of listed PSU:
    CPU: AMD FX 8350 4.0Ggz BE SkAM3+
    Memory: 8Gb Crucial Ballistix DDR3-1600Mhz
    SSD/ HDD: Western Digital WD10EZRX-00A8LB0 1TB
    CPU COOLER: The one that came with the CPU
    Raid Card: Onboard
    Sound Card: Onboard
    OC: (Yes / No) Don't know
    Operating System: Win 7 SP 1 64
    So, it worked just fine for about 3 days. Last Saturday night I tried to open Google Chrome after some gaming and the the system froze. I got a screen with vertical black and white stripes. I had to reboot the system and it gave me a black screen, crashing again, after the Win Logo at start up. At this time I was running either 14.7 or 14.9 ATI drivers.
    I could only start the PC on Safe Mode. Removing the drivers and getting Windows general VGA card settings would allow me to use Windows in normal mode though. Once I installed the Graphic Card's drivers it crashed on reboot, always with the black screen after Win logo. I installed several ATI drivers, namelly 14.9, 14.11 beta, 13.12... and nothing worked.
    I flashed the Mother Board BIOS to the latest version, formatted the HDD doing a fresh install of Win 7, installed Catalyst first and then the drivers, the drivers without catalyst, etc. and nothing worked, always getting a black sreen on reboot once the Graphic Card's drivers were installed. I even swapped the Graphic Card to a different slot to no avail.
    Right now I'm using my old Radeon HD 5670 with the latest drivers and everything works just fine. It even works fine if I keep both Graphic Cards installed with the monitor plugged to the older card. I find this odd since to do so, Windows loads both cards drivers with no errors. But once I switch to the new card everything goes black.
    Can someone help me out? I've tried to contact my vendor's technical support through mail but they're not answering. I fear that I'll have to report it as DOA and swap it out, which will take quite some time taking into consideration the way things tend to work around here.
    EDIT - I don't have a 2nd system to test it on.

    Nope. Not driver issue at all. I tested at least 3 different drivers, all with the same result. Besides, I used both Driver Fusion and Driver Cleaner and CClean to remove any non-deleted registry entries. Always got the same problem. Went as far as formating the drive and doing a clean Win install. The problem persisted.
    Tried installing drivers without Catalyst to no avail. Tried installing Cataltst first and then the drivers. Nothing. It always crashed omce the drivers were installed.

    Reinstall Lion, Mountain Lion, or Mavericks without erasing drive
    Boot to the Recovery HD:
    Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
    Repair
    When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. 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 then click on the Repair Permissions button. When the process is completed, then quit DU and return to the main menu.
    Reinstall Lion, Mountain Lion, or Mavericks
    OS X Mavericks- Reinstall OS X
    OS X Mountain Lion- Reinstall OS X
    OS X Lion- Reinstall Mac OS X
         Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet
