Blank Screen- Can't find answer to fix it.

I went to listen to my ipod the other day and when it started up, it had a blank screen. I tried to restart it, but when it came back up for the second time, now the screen is two toned. One half is white, the other grey. Plus the Apple logo no longer appears. I've tried plugging it into my computer, the computer reads the ipod. I've tried retoring the defaults, the screen is still blank. I can't find anything on the Apple.com site. Has anyone had this happen and how do I fix it?

Try and force the iPhone into Recovery Mode
1. Disconnect the USB cable from the device, but leave the other end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
2. Turn off the device: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for the device to turn off.
3.While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to the device. The device should turn on.
4. Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen. When this screen appears, release the Home button. iTunes should alert you that it has detected a device in recovery mode. Click OK, and then click Restore to restore the device.
Note: Data will be lost. You may have to repeat the above many times.

  • Windows 8 Recovery USB causes UEFI error: "Grub error: Can't find gpt 7" [FIXED]

    Hello everyone,
    Here is my situation.  I had a dual boot setup on my toshiba S855D (Win 8/Ubuntu 12.10).  After a few months my win 8 install was giving me strange errors.  I decided to do a full reinstall using the recovery USB I made. (I had reinstalled once before)  When I plugged in my USB after restarting the computer (in USB as first boot), I got the error: 'Grub error. Can't find gpt 7' If I tuned off UEFI, the computer could at least detect the USB but not do a reinstall.  Thinking it was a Grub error I formatted the HD (using an ubuntu liveUSB).  The problem persisted. I installed boot-repair on ubuntu and tried that, but no effect.  I have tried to install an updated bios from the CD image in the bios zip, but it wouldn't execute the commands in the ini file.  I even tried to install an old xp disk I had to see if I could install the bios update that way, but the windows install  repeatedly froze.
    Quick version: dual boot (win8/ubuntu)->try to reinstall win8, "error: Grub Error: Can't find gpt 7", when usb is attempted to be booted from. ->Wiped hdd, but problem persisted. -> tried many ways to fix, but nothing works.
    I have been reading many forums for the past few days, and nothing looks to work.  Any and all help would be really helpful.
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    I finally got it!
    After much poking around the internet, I was finally able to identify my problem.  My bootx64.efi in the EFI/Boot folder wasn't working.  I found this out by putting UEFI shell on another usb and using that to test my *.uefi files.  Thankfully, I had a backup of my EFI folder from my initial Ubuntu install.  This had a backup made my ubuntu. (bkpbootx64.uefi) I ran the backup and the USB worked!  
    On another forum someone (Agent268) said this, which may help.  I'm guessing you need to have a windows pe DVD/USB to make this work though. 
    "You should be able to use DISM to manually reimage this bad boy using the WIM or SWMs on that USB recovery flash drive."
    Hope my research helps someone out there.  Cheers to everyone who looked.

  • WHY can'tI find setting to control webpage format - Just got large words across screen & can't find the 'reformat' tab to cure this problem in Waterfox or FFox

    The display HERE seems okay - But trying to view Asiaxpat,com - the words are larger than normal & there is a decided lack of "formatting". Now I have had that before, but it was cures by a Waterfox or Firefox "tab/button" - but I can NOT find this wretched setting any more on the latest WFox OR FFox.
    I did try reinstalling the latest version of Wfox, & fully expected to lose all my bookmarks - but did NOT - but annoyingly - neither did I manage to get my AsiaXpat.com site to display as it did a couple of days ago on either Wfox OR FFox ! Help me find the obscure setting in these programs that seem to have been "Zapped" after I ran "Advanced System Care version 6"

  • Lost the TIMELINE form the screen, can not find it back !

    Hello,
    I was adjusting the presentation of FCP. Adjusting the canvas and switching it with the viewer on my second screen and the timeline that I always have under the viewer and the canvas just disappeared !
    When I go to "Window" in the menu it indicates that the Timeline is on. I tried restarting FCP, restarting my computer, looking in spaces, pressing F9 to have the overview of all my open windows but I can't find the Timeline.
    Can somebody tell me what is this joke.
    Thanks for reading !

    Doing that shows me my sequence in the canvas but nothing happens with the timeline

  • Ipod touch Mail Blank Screen- can't access mail

    Hi,
    When I try to open mail on my ipod touch, it opens a blank/black screen (still with the grey bar at the top with the time) but never comes up with the inbox or any menus to interact with (can't access my mail).
    I recently added another imap account. Does it have troubles with too many messages or otherwise- surely it would say that rather than staying on a blank screen.
    Any thoughts?

  • Blank screen, can still hear the sound though.

    Hey everyone, i took great care of my ipod which i got a while back, after another one had water spilled all over it and died. anyways i went to go listen to my ipod and had a blank screen all of a sudden as if it was really low on battery or something, but i could still hear the music. I checked my serial number and plugged it in on the website, and it said that i am not under warranty. any suggestions? or answers? thanks a lot !

    Are you saying that your iPad's screen is black even though you can hear Siri when you activate her?  Then ...
    first try a reset:
    Hold both the Home button and the Power button down for 10+ seconds until the Apple logo appears.  Let go promptly when it appears, wait 30+ seconds for your iPad to restart.  No information or settings will be lost.
    Now try giving your iPad a friendly thump on the back.
    Place the iPad face down on a bed or your knee and try gently hit it right on the Apple logo on the back of your iPad.  If that doesn't work try thumping it in various places on the back including the corners, and with increasing intensity.

  • IMac 24" (mmid 2007?) Black boot screen, Fans run normal, HDD Spins, Optical drive Spins, no chime and can't find how to fix.

    So my girlfriend boss wanted me to fix her computer. So I brought it home turned it on, and it didnt chime but it booted to the gray screen with apple logo/ slashed circle/and folder with a "?" So I made a USB Mac OS x bootable drive (FLASH) held down alt (try using a windows keyboard its fun)  was able to select option and install a fresh copy. all seemed well was running really hot so I poped of the screen. HOLY MOLY! this thing is CAKED with dust, and I am not kidding it has literally piles of dust. So I ran updates, and did firmware updates. Turned it off for the night.
    The next morning I went to radio shack and got Dust remove spray, opened it up made sure I was carful taking off the screen, and blew the sucker out. now its NICE and CLEAN. then i made sure I plugged everything in and turned it on. Drive spun like normal, Optical checked for a CD, and fans are also running normally. but no chime, no nothing stays as silent as normal but doesnt budge, it is like it hangs.
    Some background knowledge I know next to nothing about Apple, I am Windows based but have been intreged with the new line of Mac Books. anyone help me out?

    I figured it out it was the ram. I had took one from my old laptop and its was 6400, and the Mac i have calls for 5300 i went picked some up and wam it turned right on. WOOT!

    can not get connected to my wifi, every time I get connected it take me to a blank screen

    Some things to try first:
    1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
    2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
    3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
    4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
    5.  Renew IP Address: (especially if you are droping internet connection)
        •    Launch Settings app
        •    Tap on Wi-Fi
        •    Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
        •    In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

  • Can't find answer to Query Of Queries runtime error

    Not only I browsed this forum but also googled this problem but unfortunnately I have no luck in finding the answer.
    All I did was writing this simple query:
    <cfquery name="test" dbtype="query">
    select SSN,BirthDate from myquery where SSN <> '' OR BirthDate <> ''
    </cfquery>
    and I got this error:
    Query Of Queries runtime error.
    Comparison exception while executing <>.
    Unsupported Type Comparison Exception: The <> operator does not support comparison between the following types:
    Left hand side expression type = "DOUBLE".
    Right hand side expression type = "STRING".
    I tried the following and did not work either, still got the same error.
    <cfquery name="test" dbtype="query"> 
    select SSN,BirthDate from myquery
    where SSN <> <cfqueryparam cfsqltype="CF_SQL_VARCHAR" value=""/>  
    OR BirthDate <> <cfqueryparam cfsqltype="CF_SQL_VARCHAR" value=""/></cfquery>
    Has someone ever encountered the same problem and know how to solve it?

    HELP ! ! !  Going into testing soon. I need this to work to get correct report results ! ! ! !
    My issue seems similar to the one under discussion and the reply from lawhite01 caught my eye. Can you roll my issue into this discussion?
    This is a 2 parter. The second part is the QoQ part, but the 1st part has a line in the query that is similar to the QoQ one and it uses the same data. Part 1 also throws an error.
    PART # 1.
    I'm trying to use a query table created through QueryNew and then query it.
    I need multiple columns in the query table I create:
    <cfscript>
            tot_AllCurrentDraftListing = QueryNew("AnnounceNum, JP_PDLoc, JP_JS_Title, JP_JS, JP_KW_1, JP_JobTitle, JP_Open, JP_Close, JP_CloseType, JP_CloseName, JP_PosNeed, JP_DirectHire, JP_Desc, JP_Draft, JP_Archived, JP_State, JP_AreaName, JP_AreaID, JP_AreaAlias, JP_Fac_SU, JP_Fac_Facility, JP_FAC_ID, JP_Grade1, JP_sal_low1, JP_sal_high1, JP_Grade2, JP_sal_low2, JP_sal_high2, JP_Grade3, JP_sal_low3, JP_sal_high3, JP_Grade4, JP_sal_low4, JP_sal_high4, JP_Grade5, JP_sal_low5, JP_sal_high5, JP_Posted, JP_TypeHire, JP_HRemail");
        </cfscript>
    Then I populate all the cells of the query table.
    Then I set up to use the created query table.
    I do this first:
        <cfquery name="qAltPostID" datasource="#at_datasource#">
             SELECT AltPoster, fk_Job_AnnounceNum
             from JOB_JPContacts
             Where AltJPContactType = 'AltPosterID'
             and AltPoster = '#session.IHSUID#'
             </cfquery>
    Then, in my first query using the created query, I expect to need to choose from multiple values, so I'm using this line in the query (this is NOT a QoQ query):
                and AnnounceNum IN (<cfqueryparam cfsqltype="CF_SQL_varchar" value="#ValueList(qAltPostID.fk_Job_AnnounceNum)#">)
    I've also tried:
                   and AnnounceNum IN (#ValueList(qAltPostID.fk_Job_AnnounceNum)#)   
    and:
                   and JOB_AnnounceNum IN
                    SELECT fk_Job_AnnounceNum
                    from JOB_JPContacts
                    Where AltJPContactType = 'AltPosterID'
                    and AltPoster = '#session.IHSUID#'
    ERROR is: one record should return. I get 0.
    PART # 2: Here's the QoQ part.
    I get the error:
    Query Of Queries runtime error.
    Comparison exception while executing IN.
    Unsupported Type Comparison Exception: The IN operator does not support comparison between the following types:
    Left hand side expression type = "LONG".
    Right hand side expression type = "STRING".
    A tutorial I found gave an example using only one column for this part of the fix:
         tot_AllCurrentDraftListing = QueryNew("AnnounceNum", "CF_SQL_VARCHAR")
    How would I set up the query with the datatype when I'm using multiple columns:
    <cfscript>
            tot_AllCurrentDraftListing = QueryNew("AnnounceNum, JP_PDLoc, JP_JS_Title, JP_JS, JP_KW_1, JP_JobTitle, JP_Open, JP_Close, JP_CloseType, JP_CloseName, JP_PosNeed, JP_DirectHire, JP_Desc, JP_Draft, JP_Archived, JP_State, JP_AreaName, JP_AreaID, JP_AreaAlias, JP_Fac_SU, JP_Fac_Facility, JP_FAC_ID, JP_Grade1, JP_sal_low1, JP_sal_high1, JP_Grade2, JP_sal_low2, JP_sal_high2, JP_Grade3, JP_sal_low3, JP_sal_high3, JP_Grade4, JP_sal_low4, JP_sal_high4, JP_Grade5, JP_sal_low5, JP_sal_high5, JP_Posted, JP_TypeHire, JP_HRemail");
        </cfscript>
    I used this code after all the cells contained values and before running my QoQ query:
            <cfloop index="intID" from="1" to="#tot_AllCurrentDraftListing.recordcount#" step="1">
                <cfset tot_AllCurrentDraftListing["AnnounceNum"] [intID] = JavaCast("string", intID) />
            </cfloop>
              Is that correct?
    Thanks.
    Whoever can help me with this should be awarded extra points ! ! ! !
