Blank white screen when minimized or closed
Lately, whenever I have iTunes minimized or closed, I now have a blank white screen the same size as the iTunes window. I can move this "window" but it covers other items. When I show the iTunes window again, it appears exactly where this white window is located.
Is there a way to fix this problem?
Here's a "me too" post. I'd love to hear if anyone makes headway with this. I am the outside Mac geek for a company that has an exchange server, mostly PCs and a handful of Macs and iPhones. All the iPhones are working like a champ save one on which the Mail application periodically stops working with the Exchange account. The calendar and contacts from the exchange account continue to sync just fine, but mail app will simply remain blank when the user clicks on the inbox.
I've been able to kill the account (on the phone) and re-setup and it'll work for 2-3 weeks and then one day simply stop. I've restored the iPhone to factory defaults twice now. This past time I've not restored the contents of the phone from a backup, but rather set it up as a new phone. We'll see if that makes a difference. I've also setup the Exchange mail account as an IMAP account as a backup. Other accounts continue to work just fine when this happens--it's just the Exchange mail account that flips out.
At any rate, if anyone has any additional info/experiences, please post as I'd be curious. I'm hoping this most recent reset will do the trick, but I'm not confident it will.
Cheers,
Stephen

In iTunes prefs>Store - is the Store check box unchecked?

What is missing when I get a blank white screen when I try to Access some web sites?
On some web sites, I get a blank white screen when I try to access them.
You can try these steps in case of issues with web pages:
You can reload web page(s) and bypass the cache to refresh possibly outdated or corrupted files.
*Hold down the Shift key and left-click the Reload button
*Press "Ctrl + F5" or press "Ctrl + Shift + R" (Windows,Linux)
*Press "Command + Shift + R" (Mac)
Clear the cache and remove cookies only from websites that cause problems.
"Clear the Cache":
*Firefox/Tools > Options > Advanced > Network > Cached Web Content: "Clear Now"
"Remove Cookies" from sites causing problems:
*Firefox/Tools > Options > Privacy > "Use custom settings for history" > Cookies: "Show Cookies"
Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem.
*Switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance
*Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window

Hello all,
I have a 14.88G iPod Nano that I currently use as my primary watch. A week or so ago I started to experience a blank white screen when I press the "sleep/wake" button instead of the watch face (I have it set to wake from sleep to display the clock). When I hard reset it, it will come back fine and the screen will respond and work as normal, as soon as I manually put it to sleep by pressing the "sleep/wake" button and then try to wake it the same thing happens and I have a blank white screen that doesn't respond to touch gestures or anything.
What I have tried so far to no avail:
Numerous hard restarts (holding the "sleep/wake" button with the volume - button).
Tried this: iPod nano (6th generation): Hardware troubleshooting
Changed the watch face to display.
Recharged the device overnight (without full discharge).
Since none of this works I'm out of ideas. Eventhough I have a 6G Nano it should no longer be under warranty since I was sent it as a replacement for a different (older) product.
Any ideas? Is this a known problem? Thanks in advance for any insight any of you could provide. Also, what time is it??
Regards,Hey,
I have the exact same problem as you have described. I also used my ipod as a watch but starting from today, whenever I unlock it the screen turns white until a reset is done. Even a factory reset through itunes didn't fix it.
Have you found any solution?
Bah, this is annoying.

Hello,
The Reset Firefox feature can fix many issues by restoring Firefox to its factory default state while saving your essential information. <br>
'''Note''': ''This will cause you to lose any Extensions and some Preferences.''
*Open websites will not be saved in Firefox versions lower than 25.
To Reset Firefox do the following:
#Go to Firefox > Help > Troubleshooting Information.
#Click the "Reset Firefox" button.
#Firefox will close and reset. After Firefox is done, it will show a window with the information that is imported. Click Finish.
#Firefox will open with all factory defaults applied.
Further information can be found in the [[Reset Firefox – easily fix most problems]] article.

I only see a blank white screen when I try to open the itunes store.
I have an iMac running OS X 10.8.4 and cannot view the itunes store. My library shows but the store is a blank white screen. On my macbook at home with the same system it works fine.
Hi Jim,
I am having the same problem so I followed your advice and signed out, restarted, and signed back in. It let me look at my account in the itunes store but when I try to leave my account and go to the actual itunes store, it is still just a blank white screen. There are home, music, movies, etc. tabs. Movies and tv shows both have a black screen but the rest are white. Do you have any other suggestions? -

Why do I get a blank white screen when I try to print from a pdf?
I have the latest adobe reader X and use it with Windows 7. After downloading pdf files, they open to read but will not print. I go to File, then Print, and a big white blank screen comes up with nothing on it but a tab at the top saying "Print". There is no advanced options available where I can choose " Print as Image." The strange thing is that once this started happening, I went back to older downloads from emails that I had printed out a few weeks ago and they would not print either. Any advice?
As ~graffiti asks: can you open other online PDFs such as http://helpx.adobe.com/pdf/adobe_reader_reference.pdf ?
If not, then it's most likely http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2716529
If you need help with that, tell us your Windows version. -
Bridge Slide Show Blank White screen (NEW)
I get a blank white screen when I hit Apple L.(same when I go to VIEW click slide show) I have reinstalled CS3 3 times. Upgraded driver for Video card. Very thing else works OK. this is driving me crazy. I am using a G 5 Pro,operating system 10.5, 5 gig ram, Radon 9600 video card. Checked all setting nothing helps.Not getting ans. to this question I went in an deleted preferences. Now nothing works. Photoshop seem to work normally.
I get a blank gray screen when trying to view a slide show in bridge. Have G5 10.5.1 with dual 1.8 GHz and 2 BG ram. Everything but slide show works in bridge. I have re-installed Leopard and CS3.
Adobe advised trying bridge/slide show in safe boot. Works in safe boot. Adobe says to check activity monitor in safe boot and regular boot to see what's on causing problem in regular boot. Activity monitor the same in both boots.
I think problem is Adobe but I think they are finished helping.

I get nothing but a blank white screen when visiting iTunes-Store. It was working a couple of days ago. Does it have something to do with upgrading Flash-Player (I hope not)? Is anyone else having this problem?
I suppose when Apple decides that my money is important to them then they will fix this issue. I can view the iTunes store with much older versions of iTunes and Safari on several other accounts and computers in my house.

Standalone (.exe) Flash 8 apps have stopped working with blank white screen
We have some standalone executable flash applications coded with Flash 8. These are the Microsoft Office 2007 command reference guides produced by Microsoft. Recently they have stopped working and now just display as a blank white screen when run.
As they are self contained Flash 8 movies, I'm unsure what would cause this.
Any ideas please? Could they be converted to a later version somehow? Or converted back to SWF so they can be recompiled back to exe with a later version of Flash? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.Check what you have at; '''http://get.adobe.com/reader/'''
Lets make sure you only have one program.

Phone won't turn on, getting a blank white screen only
iPhone stopped working, just displaying a blank white screen when on
Reset, hold both home and power buttons until the iPhone restarts, usually takes about 10 seconds of holding the two buttons. Try this several times to see if you can get the LCD working.

Issue when signing into adobe I get a blank white screen
what seems happening is when they log into their adobe account, it will go to a blank white screen and seem to cycle till it eventually times out and gets a connection error. However, if they type in "adobe.com" it will show them as having logged in.
This is happening on ie, and firefox and is not profile specific meaning I can log into the computer under my credentials and experience the same thing.
I've tried the usual suggestions such as renaming the OOBE folder, deleting temp files, etc.
I'm thinking it's some kind of issue with adobe flash player. Any guidance with this would be appreciated.
Thanks

I've tried for several days to open my iTunes Store on my iPhone. Every time it opens, but with a blank white screen.
Hi Upswife,
When troubleshooting iTunes Store connection issues, the following articles provide the best information:
First, try signing out of your account in Settings > iTunes & App Store. Once signed out, go ahead and sign back in.
iOS: Changing the signed-in iTunes Store Apple ID account
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1311
If the above did not resolve your issue, refer to the following:
Can't connect to the iTunes Store
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1368
If you haven't been able to connect to the iTunes Store:
- Make sure that your iOS software is up to date by connecting your iOS device to iTunes and clicking on Check for Update in your device's Summary page in iTunes.
- Check and verify that you are in range of a Wi-Fi router or base station. If you are on a 3G capable device, make sure that cellular data is turned on from Settings > General > Cellular.
- Check to make sure you have an active internet connection. You can check the User Guide for your device for help with connecting to the internet.
- Check to make sure other devices (portable computers, for example) are able to connect to the Wi-Fi network and access the internet.
- Try resetting (turning off and then on again) your Wi-Fi router
- If the issue still persists see, iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connectionsoriOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections.
Thanks,
Matt M.
