Can't get rid of white screen on macbook pro

How do I get rid of white screen?

Stacer125,
which model MacBook Pro do you have, and which version of OS X is installed on it?

Ipad screen is white. Restored it on iTunes. Press home and on switch goes black then back to white with no logo at all. Can't get past the white screen. This happened after running app updates. 16GB OS 7.1.1

The ipad screen is white. Holding buttons didn't work so I restored it on iTunes. When I press home and on switch, the screen is white, goes black then back to white with no logo at all. Can't get past the white screen. This happened after running app updates. Is there any fix besides going to Apple store? In iTunes on computer can see what is on there. 16GB OS 7.1.1

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.

I do backup with iCloud. I can't wait until the new iMac is available so that I can once again have my files in more than 1 location without needing to rely solely on the cloud.
I also rely on iTunes and my MacBook and Time Machine as well as backing up to iCloud. I know many users know have gone totally PC free, but I chose to use iCloud merely as my third backup.
I assume that the restore would result in my ability to open Pages and Numbers and fix the problem with deleting apps, but this would also mean that if my Numbers documents still exist solely within the app and are just not on iCloud for some reason that they would be gone forever. Is that right?
In a word, yes. In a little more detail.... When you restore from an iCloud backup, you must erase the device and start all over again. There is no other way to access the backup in iCloud without erasing the device. Consequently, you are starting all over again. Therefore, it would also be my assumption that Pages and Numbers will work again and that the deleting apps issues would be fixed as well.
If the documents are not in the backup, and you do not have a backup elsewhere, the documents could be gone forever.

I can't get beyond a white screen starting my imac

This happened many months ago but my imac
evetnually started. Today I have tried several times
to start my imac and can't get beyond the white screen.
I get the mac sound at when it is trying to start up but then freezes
at the white screen.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thank.

The following support article is somewhat outdated. Where it refers to booting from an installation disc, you should boot from your recovery partition (if running 10.7 or later) by holding down the key combination command-R at the chime. If your startup volume is encrypted with FileVault, you’ll have to unlock it in Disk Utility before you can do anything with it.
Mac OS X: Gray screen appears during startup

Can't get past the white screen at start up

I can not get past the white screen when it starts up. It will chime and then stay at the white screen. I have replaced the hard drive, memory, battery. I have reset the PRAM and the SMC.

Reinstall OS X without erasing the drive
Do the following:
1. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions
Boot from your Snow Leopard Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. 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 click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer.
If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior and/or Tech Tool Pro to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.
2. Reinstall Snow Leopard
If the drive is OK then quit DU and return to the installer. Proceed with reinstalling OS X. Note that the Snow Leopard installer will not erase your drive or disturb your files. After installing a fresh copy of OS X the installer will move your Home folder, third-party applications, support items, and network preferences into the newly installed system.
Download and install the Combo Updater for the version you prefer from support.apple.com/downloads/.

Can't Get Rid of Green Screen in Vlog-it

I am fairly new to vlog-it.
I have been messing around with it and so far the video and voice wont sync up.
Also, I can not get rid of the green screen. When I do a test run, my audio comes through but all I see of the finished product is a blank green screen....I do not have v screen on...I have looked and looked for a setting to turn it off, but I have not found it.

Hi,
Pic first
Handle = Screen Name.
Name = Your Details as per your My Card (Head and Shoulders iCon) in the Address Book - Or the User that is Logged in to the Mac.
Each Buddy List will show the same Name but a different Handle based on the Screen Name for that Buddy List.
If you only have one Buddy List (other than the Bonjour One) and you Delete it then the Buddy List Disappears - Problem Solved. (Presumably you are re-adding a New Screen Name ?)
Pic of the Minus Button I am talking about.
Multiple Buddy List are created by adding more then One Screen Name to the Accounts List (Previous Pic)
I am a little confused where you were when you did this:-
I tried clicking on the minus sign in the list of users to delete the account and tried signing up for a new iChat account using my AIM screen name/password;
"List of Users" sounds like you were in System Preferences > Accounts.
You can "Delete" an Account here. It is not actually removed from the Users Folder (Hard Drive/Users) but is locked in a way that no-one has access and they are Removed from the Login Screen when the Mac Starts Up.
DO NOT DELETE ANY CLOSED ACCOUNT FOLDER In the Users Folder.
But if you use the same Screen Name in another Mac User Account the same Handle will appear.
You will see my GoogleTalk Account is headed "GoogleTalk" and my AIM Account as "Main AIM Account" These are set in the Description field in the iChat > Preferences > Accounts.
The Default if you have one account that logs into AIM is for it to read "AIM Buddy List"
Similar for one Jabber Account.
With more accounts of any one type they take on the info in the Description Field - which itself by default is the Screen Name.
Are you trying to create a New Mac User Account and use the same AIM Screen Name there ?
Are you trying to just change AIM Screen Names ?

Can't get rid of white space

Hi, I'm new to dreamweaver, searched around but couldn't find a solution. Here is the site I can't get rid of that white space above the footer. It's a clearfloat I think. I've tried a whole bunch of things, but nothing works, it's not so much that I want to get rid of it, cause as I understand it's usefull, just want the footer and maincontent to line up. Thanks for any help.

Sorry. I didn't see your site link. Tired eyes can't see today.
Try changing your #container division's background from white to dark.
twoColHybRtHdr #container {
width: 100%;
background: #000;
Also, just so you know, empty paragraph tags are not a reliable layout device. Consider using min-height property.

IMac won't start up, can't get past the white screen

I have an older iMac, I believe it's the g5, the white one, got it about 6 years ago or so. It was acting up recently, crashing programs, taking a long time to respond etc. I figured I just had too much stuff on my hard drive so I went out and bought an external hard drive. After I copied over a bunch of files (not everything, my music and my photos aren't backed up!) I then deleted the files I transferred from the iMac to make room. It took a very long time for the trash to empty, and then I tried to restart. It shut down but never rebooted. When I press the power button it will only get to the white screen with the gray apple and gray progress wheel. It stays like that for a minute or two with the wheel turning but barely any progress on the progress bar and then it turns off. I tried unplugging everything including the power cord but nothing works. Any ideas? Thanks.

will it start in Single User Mode ? (Hold Command + S after hearing the chime)
If so, follow the fsck section at http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1417
and when/if you (finally) get a 'volume appears to be OK' message
don't restart afterwards.
then, still in single user, type the command df/ followed by enter
making sure that the result shows Capacity at some reasonable level, like 90% or less.
df means 'display free disk space', you're checking that the drive isn't so horribly full that attemoting to start might further risk your data
if Capacity is ok- reboot as per the article; if not, post back.
If you can boot in Single User & have done the above, but still can't start normally - try
Safe Mode to see if you can copy your files off.
If Single works, but nothing else, it's probably possible to copy your files in that mode, using typed commands.
if you can't start at all -
Checking your exact model at http://www.ifixit.com/ will show how hard it is to remove the HD yourself... some are pretty easy with the right-sized screwdrivers, and the drive can then be taken to anywhere with a computer & the right cable/adaptor to copy your files.
or
Target Disk Mode : http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1661
if it works for you, would let someone with a computer & firewire port access any of your files that are intact. Apple may, as mentioned, say it's too old for them to look at.
finding the dvd's/getting replacements would be best.

How can I get past the white screen?

When I start my iMac I see a message that my start up disk is full and that I need to delete files. After I type in my user name and password, all I see if a white screen. This problem started today. The error message about the start up disk started two days ago, and when I looked at the disk, I saw that over half of it has files described as "other". The hard drive is 250 GB. I have Time Machine backups but I don't know how to get to them to help me. So, I guess that I have two questions: how do I get past the white screen, and what are the files that are catogoraized as other? Thanks.

I did not put the OS info in my question because I am not sure what I have. I upgraded to Lion so that I could use the cloud between my devices, however I do not know the number.
Apple menu item->About this Mac and the version is listed there. Click on that and get the build number. Click again and get the machine's serial number.
I am stuck on the white screen. Any other advice?
Start with a google search for white screen mac. This one might do the trick: http://www.mac-forums.com/forums/apple-desktops/138137-imac-wont-get-passed-whit e-screen.html

Can't get rid of old screen name in iChat

when I first got my iMac a couple years ago, I was experimenting with the apps, including iChat. In iChat, I setup an account using a screen name that I no longer want to use, but when I try logging into iChat using the AIM account with the screen name I want, the "user name" that shows up in iChat is the first one I used when I was experimenting for the first time with iChat.
How do I get rid of this old, unwanted screen name? I tried clicking on the minus sign in the list of users to delete the account and tried signing up for a new iChat account using my AIM screen name/password; neither worked (when I tried logging in with my AIM info and clicking on the button to set up a new iChat account, I got sent to the AIM web site that wanted me to input all my info again then sent me to the site to download AIM - which I already have.) I could find nothing in the iChat preferences other than the minus sign I referred to but that won't allow me to definitively delete the unwanted screen name/handle.
Is there some place I can find the iChat preferences in the system folder, maybe, and delete them so next time I start iChat a new, blank set of preferences will be opened that will allow me to set the username I want? If this will work, where is this file located?
Thanks.
P.S. I got Skype recently to try, but like some of the features in iChat so would rather use iChat if I can get it to use the name I want and have with AIM.

Can't get rid of white border around image

http://www.gunnar.ca/laminatepage2.htm
I created a rounded corner in photoshop for my table. I
created a cell in the bottom left corner of the table and placed
the gif. There is a thin whit border around the outer edge of the
gif, so it doesn't look genuinely rounded. Can anyone tell me how
to get rid of that so it looks like the table is actually rounded?
Thank you!

Because the table containing the GIF has a border. In your
styleA.css
stylesheet, the rule:
.border {
border: 1px solid #E5E5E5;
adds a border to the table. Delete the rule. Of course - that
may affect
other things that use the .border class. Or - delete the
class from the
table tag.
Several problems with the page:
styles.css cannot be found
sideNavStyles.css cannot be found
34 vaildation errors:

Can't get past the white screen with the grey apple in the middle

When I start up my PowerBook G4 I first get a gray screen with a small white box in the middle of the screen that contains planet earth. After this icon has flashed 14 times it disappears and then a small file appears in its place. Inside this file folder is an alternating flashing question mark and the Finder icon. After a few seconds this icon disappears and the screen turns white with an apple in the middle. I can not get the computer to do anything after that.
My problem is I got the computer from my mother and she can not find any of the disks that originally came with it.
Does anyone have any useful suggestions?
Thanks

Unfortunately, I just got off the phone with Apple Care and they do not carry them anymore. They're recommending I upgrade the system to Leopard. They want $120 for the disks. Any other suggestions?

Can't get rid of Login Screen

I recently deleted my guest account (guest moved out, don't need it anymore). I cannot get rid of the login screen for admin (me!) though. Each time I start my iMac, it asks me for a password, even though I deleted the password. I can get in by simply hitting enter, but I'd like to get rid of the login altogether.
Can anybody help?

Hello Brooks.
1. Open System Preferences and click Accounts.
2. If some settings are dimmed, click the lock icon and type an administrator name and password.
3. Click Login Options.
4. Select the way you want users to log in (a list of users or a dialog asking for their name and password).
5. Select "Automatically log in as" if you want the computer to log one user in automatically each time it starts up. Then choose the user from the pop-up menu and enter the user's password when prompted.
If you turn automatic login on for yourself, the computer opens your account when it starts up. If you log out, other users see a login window to log into their user accounts.
Each time I start my iMac, it asks me for a password,
even though I deleted the password. I can get in by
simply hitting enter, but I'd like to get rid of the
login altogether.
IMPORTANT: Be very careful when setting up automatic login. If you turn on automatic login for yourself, another user can restart the computer and have instant access to your user account when the computer starts up again.
I don't recommend deleting or getting rid of your login password and simply hitting enter to login. I'm the only user of my Mac and I've disable automatic login for my account to prevent a guest or anyone else from accessing all of my data in my Home directory by simply turning on the computer.
