Getting all white screen after login

I log into my MacBook Pro & am getting an all white/grey screen, no transition to home screen. Any idea as to what the issue is?

Monkeyknfefight,
it might be a filesystem problem. Which model MacBook Pro do you have, and which version of OS X is installed on it?

    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

  • How do i get out of white screen after login

    How do i get out of the white screen after signing on to my computer.

    Hi GregConk, 
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    If I understand right, your iMac is only starting up to a blank white screen after you log in. If so, there are some good troubleshooting steps that may resolve this behavior. 
    First, try booting your computer into Safe Mode, to see if your desktop appears in this mode:
    Shut down your Mac. If necessary, hold your Mac's power button for several seconds to force it to power down.
    Start your Mac, then immediately hold the Shift key. This performs a Safe Boot. Advanced tip: If you want to see the status of a Safe Boot as it progresses, you can hold Shift-Command-V during start up (instead of just Shift). 
    Note: A Safe Boot takes longer than a typical start up because it includes a disk check and other operations.
    If your Mac starts up as expected, immediately try restarting.
    From:

    If you see your desktop in Safe Mode, but not when starting up normally, try the troubleshooting tips in this article next:

  • Why I'm still getting a white screen after Replacing the screen on my iPhone

    i just replaced the screen on my iPhone 4 but after I finished , im getting a white screen all the time

    Did you replace the screen yourself? If so, then opening the device voids any post-warranty support from Apple, and from the forum. You will need to Google for help, since according to Apple, the iPhone does not have any user serviceable parts.

  • Stuck on white screen after login

    My 13" macbook pro is stuck on the white screen "after" the user login page. It started happening after installing the latest update then gave me a "start up disc is full error also. I know to clean up unnecessary files but can't do that when it's stuck before I can get to a point where I can access them. Any Ideas and help would be great.
    Thanks

  • MacBook Pro mid 2013 13' gets stuck on White screen after login.

    I'm in safe mode right now. I Booted it up in Safe Mode by holding down the shift key during startup. What do I do now to not get the white/grey screen during startup after login?

    Mac OS X: Gray screen appears during startup
    If the grey screen occurs when you boot normally (not safe mode) try bypassing your Login Items by holding a Shift key in the same manner during login (i.e. not during boot). If you can log in, you effectively isolated the problem to one of more of your Login Items.

  • My mac book pro retina has white screen after login in both users !!!! Don't know what to do

    It was working fine till night.
    Next morning I tried to log in and white screen appears. Cant see anything except cursor.
    I have been getting message of " start up disk is full" from last week or so.
    Please let me know if anybody knows how to resolve it!!!
    Thanks

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    You need more free storage. If your Mac is frozen, hold the Power button until it turns off.
    Then, hold the Shift key while your Mac is starting to start in safe mode. Safe mode will allow you to access into Mac OS X and delete or move data, so you can use Mac OS X in normal mode again.
    After logging in, the only thing you have to do is to look for files in your user's folders and delete or move them to an external drive. You can also see what categories are taking more space in  > About this Mac > More Info > Storage.
    When you have finished, restart and see if you can log in

  • White screen after login?????

    When I start my computer, it goes through the opening screen, boot sound, apple, etc.   get the option to type in my pas word and it goes to a white screen.  What do I need to do???

    scottishshaman,
    since you have Mavericks installed, you can try this: boot your MacBook Pro into Recovery mode by holding down a Command key and the R key as it starts up. Once the Mac OS X Utilities menu appears, select Disk Utility. On the left-hand side of the Disk Utility window, select your internal disk’s boot partition (typically called “Macintosh HD”). On the right-hand side, press the Verify Disk button if it’s not greyed out; if it is greyed out, or if it reports that errors were found, press the Repair Disk button. Once the verification/repair is completed, exit Disk Utility and select Restart from the Apple menu to restart in normal mode. Does it reach the login screen now?

  • Why am I getting a white screen after downloading to OSX Mountain lion from OSX Snow Leopard. What caused this?

    I just upgraded to OSX Mountain Lion from OSX Snow Leopard, thinking this was the thing to do.  I have NEVER had any problems with Snow Leopard, but
    after just a few days after downloading OSX Mountain Lion when I turned the computer on, the screen was white.  Stayed white.  I had to go onto another
    computer to find out what to do.  What caused this and will this happen again?

    Did you see a circle made of light grey hash marks in the center/bottom of the screen?  My iMac is 5 years old and for every update until 10.8.2 I would get the same white screen and the first few times I paniced and thought the machine was broken!  Just let it play out until the desktop comes back up and it should not do it again until you do a system update. 

  • I'm getting a white screen after deleting languages

    I'm sure I did not delete English.  I just deleted a few unusual languages and iMac was still working after that.  But after a Restart, I'm getting a blank screen and I don't know what to do.  I'm running the latest OS version on my iMac (Intel).  What else should I do?

    See this note for Mountain Lion. This Apple note for all other versions is more complete with options.
    Sort of net of both ... boot into recovery mode by holding the command and r keys down, bring up Disk Utility and repair the disk. Try to boot. If still a blank screen, reboot into recovery mode and reinstall the operating system.

  • Color switches to a black and white screen after login

    iMac 700MHZ Graphite 10.3.9 color issue. When I am logging in the screen is in color but after login when it switches to my desktop the color also switches to a black and white screen.

  • Blank white screen after login prompt on sharepoint site

    Greetings all
    We have sharepoint site setup which is running fien since a year  now with one WFE  web server, db server, ad  server
    We received  a problm recently when we received blank screen after entering login details.
    Upon restart of website via IIS  it resumed.
    I am still finding what are causes and which event log would help to identify errors?

    We couldnt schedule this to be on and waited for weekned.
    However we again had same incident reported 8 am cst and found that event log has similar warning ( time approx 6 am cst).
    Cleared sharepoint timer cache.
    started sharepoint timer service again .
    still website didnt show contents after authenticating.
    stopped website in IIS   mapped to this web application and site contents started showing up.
    is there anything else we need to enable in sharepoint logging to find  root causes.
    We have pending windows updates on server , should that be causing any of these errors?
