Black screen and apple logo! Help please!

My iPod 5g running on iOS 7.6 won't turn on. It just repeats the same pattern of black screen and the apple logo over and over. Help me please!

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 another cable       
- 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.

  • Help!! Ipod touch alternates between black screen and apple logo.

  • 2nd ATV displays black screen and apple logo on initial start up

    I just hooked up my 2nd ATV and all I am getting is a black screen with the apple logo. I am using component video and composite audio. No HDMI hooked up. 1st ATV is unplugged. Also have network cable plugged in for now. Using timecapsule for wireless network. This is a second hand ATV, so it has been previously used and configured. I also attempted to hook up using an HDMI, but same result. I am not sure if the unit is trying to find the previous users network or not. The amber light flashes indicating start up. Nothing else on the screen, no question mark, rotating circle, just the logo. Every few minutes the screen goes blue (assuming it is my TV default colour) and then returns to the black screen and logo. I am on the correct TV input. Also tried, menu + '+' and menu + - on the remote for factory restore and screen settings.

    Sorry if my comments were misunderstood, I wasn't suggesting anyone was a thief, I was suggesting that without a receipt the store couldn't/shouldn't rely on the serial number to exchange/refund the tv, as proof of purchase.

  • Macbook stuck on white screen with apple logo. help please

    I have a macbook (black model) and while I was surfing on internet it is frozen. so I shut it down and restarted. When I restarted, it stuck on white screen with gray apple logo and seems like booting but nothing happens.
    after that, I restarted again and put installation disc (leopard) without pressing any key and it opened normally. I backed up os with time machine but in one hour it is frozen again.
    restarted again but this time it did not boot normally. so i tried booting from cd with c key, it opened installation screen. I have opened disk utility top repair disk, but when I click on disc image, repair / verify disk buttons are unavailable to click and S.M.A.R.T status is not supported.
    After all, I tried to erase and install system several times, but after language section when I click agree to terms and conditions, mac freeze again.
    So, I do not know what to do. Any help please?
    Note: I already tried PRM and Safe Mode. (after safe mode it took me to installation screen again and nothing changed.)
    Any help would be much appreciated!
    Uptade: Also, opened system profiler and clicked on Serial-ATA, it seems loading but do not show any info. stucked again! help please

    HI,
    *"I have opened disk utility top repair disk, but when I click on disc image, repair / verify disk buttons are unavailable to click and S.M.A.R.T status is not supported."*
    You need to select "MacintoshHD 10.5.8 not "disc image" in order to run Disk Utility and Verify and if necessary, Repair the disk.
    That's why you are seeing this dialog.
    *are unavailable to click and S.M.A.R.T status is not supported.*
    Also, run the Apple Hardware Test.

  • Iphone is stuck in black screen white apple logo.Help!

    I had a notication to update my IOS so I let the update run from my phone. Now my phone is stuck on black background with white apple logo. It has been this way for about 45 minutes. I tried connecting to itunes. Trying to restore my phone. Tried turning it off and on. Nothing is working. I have it plugged in right now and I am holding down the power and home buttons, it goes black for a couple seconds and then the logo pops right back up. Any advice?? I can't get the phone out of this screen.

    You may have to place the phone in DFU mode and restore to factory condition using iTunes. Search the web for the procedure.

  • My ipad wont turn on after black screen and apple logo

    i was playing on my ipad and then out of nowhere it turns off and the apple logo comes on. after about a minuete of the logo it disseapears and the screen become black again. i have tried holding both buttons down but it still wont turn on

    Hello dbrasif,
    Thank you for providing the details of the issue you are experiencing with your iPad.  It is definitely inconvenient and frustrating when you are not able to access your iPad.
    I recommend following these steps for the issue you described:
    If a single application is not responding or stops responding when it opens, you can force it to close.
    If the device is unresponsive or if certain controls aren't working as expected, restart your device.
    If the device remains unresponsive or does not turn on (or power on),reset your device.
    If there is no video or if the screen remains black, verify that the device has enough charge to turn on:
    If you are using an iPad, ensure that it's connected to the USB Power Adapter supplied with the device.
    Let charge for at least twenty minutes, then see if it starts normally.
    If there is no image on the screen, press the Sleep/Wake button to attempt to wake the device.
    If the screen displays a red battery icon, continue charging the device until the battery is fully charged.
    If the above steps do not resolve the issue, or the if the screen remains black or shows a persistent Apple logo, try restoring with iTunes:
    Connect the device to your computer and open iTunes.
    If the device appears in iTunes, select and click Restore on the Summary pane. Learn more about restoring iOS software.
    If the device doesn't appear in iTunes, try to force the device into recovery mode, and then restore it.
    If the above steps do not resolve the issue, contact Apple.
    You can find the full article here:
    iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3281
    If you get to step 5, I recommend backing up your iPhone before performing the restore:

  • 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.
    Regards.

  • I have an iBook g4 14" 1.42 ghz. I recently installed a new hard drive.  I put the install CD in. Then, I pressed the power button, then the "C" key. Black screen and No chiming. Please tell me, what I can do to resolve this? What is the problem with it?

    Since it will not boot then a hardware test can't be run. You could try FireWire Target Disk Mode and if it works then access from another Mac to run tests on the new drive. You could also try installing the OS X software from the host computer. If this does not work then professional help should be considered.

  • 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!

  • My IPad Air is frozen with a white screen and Apple Logo on it.

    My Ipad Air is frozen with the white screen and apple logo.  I've tried resetting it several times and that doesn't help.  I tried connecting to ITunes, but it isn't recognizing the device. 
    The battery is fully charged, at least for now, so I am not sure what else to try.

    FORCE IPAD INTO RECOVERY MODE
    1. Turn off iPad
    2. Turn on computer and launch iTunes (make sure you have the latest version of iTune)
    3. Plug USB cable into computer's USB port
    4. Hold Home button down and plug the other end of cable into docking port.
    DO NOT RELEASE BUTTON until you see picture of iTunes and plug
    5. Release Home button.
    ON COMPUTER
    6. iTunes has detected iPad in recovery mode. You must restore this iPad before it can be used with iTunes.
    7. Select "Restore iPad"...
    Note:
    1. Data will be lost if you do not have backup
    2. You must follow step 1 to step 4 VERY CLOSELY.
    3. Repeat the process if necessary.
