HELP-- N97 stuck at white screen with nokia logo

Kindly help anyone. I installed lifetime free ovi maps on to N97 via computer and it worked initially. Then all of a sudden everything went black and phone restarted itself and since then it is stuck on the white screen with nokia logo.I have taken out battery umpteen times and everytime it is stuck. Won't go beyond this point. kindly help

@tcwlam-if yougo to the website, you can download the app as a .sisx file, and you can just load the file onto your phone and install it there.
@silvervectra- I'm guessing you downloaded it and just installed despite the compatibility warning? The problem why this is still not available to the n97 is likely  due to software incompatibility, which is why it will be delayed to come with the new firmware. If so you just bricked your phone due to you not wanting to wait, congratulations (insert really sarcastic tone)! Anyway, just do the hard reset. Hopefully it would fix it and uninstall the ovi maps. Otherwise you would likely have to have the guys at the Nokia Care Center reflash your phone and roll back ovi maps.

  • 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.

    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?

    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.*

    Please don't take this the wrong way but did you release the power button the moment vibration felt whilst keeping the remaining three keys depressed? It took me a couple of goes the first time that I carried out this procedure to get it right.

  • Computer doesn't boot, stuck in white screen with Apple logo

    I got a friend that has a MacBook 2.0GHz, Black. The computer had some sort of problem so he took out the HD and placed it into another computer (MacBook 2.2GHz, Black). For some reason whenever the computer boots, it gets stuck in the white screen with the gray Apple logo, and shows up a bar, as if it's loading some sort of firmware update. It never advances, and it doesn't go thru.
    If he takes the same HD and puts it into an enclosure, first it would take a while to mount in another computer, and afterwards it would give some errors, but now it doesn't even load.
    Before he had the issue with his original computer everything was working fine, and there was no update going on when the computer got broken. The problem that that computer has isn't related to the HD.

    If you have physically removed the drive and connected it to another computer and it "took a while to mount" then it sounds like the drive itself is failing. Hopefully he maintains backups.
    Boot the MacBook in "verbose" mode (press and hold down option+v while powering up)
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1492
    In this mode you will see all the boot messages scroll by instead of the typical white screen with Apple logo. You will likely be able to see messages indicating what the computer is trying to do -- for example messages indicating that having failures or retrying to read the hard drive.
    The access arms on hard drives have to be precisely located above the "tracks" on the disk in order to read data. As the drive ages & wears, the accuracy of the arms can become sloppy, causing the read/write head to no longer be precisely located over a track. This results in failure to read correctly. Most drives have a useful life of about 5 years -- after which the failure rate will go up substantially. Fortunately, replacement hard drives are cheap.

  • Mac stuck on white screen with apple logo at startup

    It's a few days i have this issue.
    When i turn on my macmini (late 2009) it does the startup sound, but when the white screen with apple logo appears it stucks on that screen.
    To solve this problem i have to unplug the power connector, when i restart it works normally.
    This happens randomly, not at every startup.
    I switched from normal HD to ssd HD (brand new one), i have the same problem with both HDs.
    Since black outs are not good for computers i woult solve this problem.
    Does anybody have my same issue or know what's wrong?
    Thanks!!!

    Reinstall OS X without erasing the drive
    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 Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1.

  • Stuck on white screen with apple logo

    A few days ago my macbook pro started making a weird buzzing noise and froze. I waited for a while until I shut it off. When I turned it on again it froze at a white screen and after a few minutes it was a white screen with the apple logo.
    I kept waiting, and after a while my mac restarted and it happend all over again. I then tried to find something here to help, and I tried everything!
    I tried the disk utility thing and when I tries to verify the Macintoch HD it said "The volume could not be verified completely. Error: This disk needs to be repaired. Click repair disk." I did that, but then it said "Error: disk utility can't repair this disk... Disk, and restore your backed up files."
    what should I do now?
    Also I tried the safe mode thing when I start up the machine, but that doesn't seem to work either.
    I haven't backed up my files either.. So, I don't know what to do, and I don't want to lose my files. Can I do something about that? Please help me!

  • IMac Stuck on White Screen with Apple Logo

    Currently own: iMac 21.5" 2009 version with Snow Leopard, 4GB Ram, 500 GB Hard drive
    This computer was sitting in storage of my basement for 2 years because I was out of town on business.
    When I came home the computer worked fine. But earlier this evening it was on sleep mode and the dreadful color wheel was on. So I rebooted it, only to see that it was stuck on the white loading screen with the Apple logo. And nothing more. Panic struck me and I tried restarting it again, to no avail. Then I tried rebooting in Safe mode- but it won't respond. THEN I called Apple Care, and they tried to have me go through the process where it checks the Hardware. It took 45 minutes and then the screen said "It was modified", or something to that degree. But when we reboot it, it returned to the white screen.
    I am so upset. I now have an appointment with the Apple store on Monday. I don't have a warranty anymore. How much is it going to cost if they have to replace to hard drive? I thought Apple computers were meant to last! This is beyond ridiculous! I had not downloaded anything wrong, wasn't on crazy websites. It still had over 350 GB of space left. Why didn't the tests we did over the phone work? Is my computer broken? I do have an external hard drive with Time machine, so I am not concerned about losing my data. I am, however, concerned about shelling out another $1500 for a new computer!

    If you are taking it to Apple they will fix it for you, but they will install Snow Leopard. If you want the current Mavericks you can download that yourself from your home and install it. This is dependent somewhat on what model you actually have.
    Upgrading from Snow Leopard to Lion or Mountain Lion
    You can upgrade to Mountain Lion from Lion or directly from Snow Leopard. Mountain Lion can be downloaded from the Mac App Store for $19.99.
    If you sign into the App Store and try to purchase Mountain Lion but the App Store says your computer is not compatible then you may still be able to upgrade to Lion per the following information.
    A. Upgrading to Mountain Lion or Mavericks
    To upgrade to Mountain Lion or Mavericks you must have Snow Leopard 10.6.8 or Lion installed. Purchase and download Mountain Lion or Mavericks (Free) from the App Store. Sign in using your Apple ID. Mountain Lion is $19.99 plus tax. The file is quite large, over 5 GBs, so allow some time to download. It would be preferable to use Ethernet because it is nearly four times faster than wireless.
         OS X Mountain Lion — System Requirements
         OS X Mavericks- System Requirements
           Macs that can be upgraded to OS X Mountain Lion
             1. iMac (Mid 2007 or newer) — Model Identifier 7,1 or later
             2. MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer) —
                 Model Identifier 5,1 or later
             3. MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer) — Model Identifier 3,1 or later
             4. MacBook Air (Late 2008 or newer) — Model Identifier 2,1 or later
             5. Mac mini (Early 2009 or newer) — Model Identifier 3,1 or later
             6. Mac Pro (Early 2008 or newer) — Model Identifier 3,1 or later
             7. Xserve (Early 2009) — Model Identifier 3,1 or later
    To find the model identifier open System Profiler in the Utilities folder. It's displayed in the panel on the right.
    Are my applications compatible?
             See App Compatibility Table — RoaringApps.
    B. Upgrading to Lion
    If your computer does not meet the requirements to install Mountain Lion, it may still meet the requirements to install Lion.
    You can purchase Lion by contacting Customer Service: Contacting Apple for support and service - this includes international calling numbers. The cost is $19.99 (as it was before) plus tax.  It's a download. You will get an email containing a redemption code that you then use at the Mac App Store to download Lion. Save a copy of that installer to your Downloads folder because the installer deletes itself at the end of the installation.
         Lion System Requirements
           1. Mac computer with an Intel Core 2 Duo, Core i3, Core i5, Core i7,
               or Xeon processor
           2. 2GB of memory
           3. OS X v10.6.6 or later (v10.6.8 recommended)
           4. 7GB of available space
           5. Some features require an Apple ID; terms apply.
    I can't help you any more if you don't have the installer DVD, so you will have to wait until Monday. I had hoped we might get you working before then, but that isn't going to happen, I"m afraid.

  • Mbpr won't boot up, stuck on white screen with apple logo when I turn it on

    This morning I noticed the apple logo on the outer shell of my mac was lit up, I thought this was very odd because the lid was closed and like all laptops when thier lids are shut the display ect. are supposed to switch off/go to standby?
    Anyway I quickly opened the lid of my laptop to find that iconic white boot up screen with the grey apple logo and the small spinning loading circle under it
    I've waited nearly 5 hours and tried multiple thing like booting up in safe mode, single user mode, and evan reinstalling OS X mavericks somebody help me please

    Read this article... It recommended something you did already but there are other troubleshooting tips I'm not sure you've tried.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2570
    If none works, then a trip to the Apple Store is needed. It's most likely a hardware issue that you yourself cannot resolve.

  • Updated iPhone 4s to ios8 but screen is stuck on white screen with apple logo and progress bar

    I updated my phone last night and my iPhone screen is white and has a gray apple logo and a progress bar which has been the same for 12 hours. The bar looks almost completel but it hasn't moved at all. my phone was also unplugged accidentally during the night while it was on this screen. would that have any effect?

    Turn it off, go into recovery mode (command R at boot), wipe everything, go back and install Yosemite. Its suggested that you are using ethernet as it goes a lot faster that Wifi and more reliable. If you do not have a ethernet cable, you can still use Wifi. Hope this fixes your problem.

  • Stuck on white screenn with apple logo what i do?

    i have spent two days searching high and low and while the answer is out their my wife doesn't appreciate the information gained process rather the weekend is near and my planner is out of order, so before spending for a one time consultation i thought maybe one last try might be it,  then again i say the same with the lottery....anyone know today's? Ha! my question is how can I fresh start an imac 2.7 Ghz? we bought it 7 days ago and all worked well when a friend with a few newer models suggested the mountain lion upgrade only instead of buying from the store as I believe he did he loaded from a usb he owned so now what was thought to be a penny pinched is become awful expensive for such little copper, i have tried command+ r. command+ option +p +r, shift, c, command +c, space bar etc... am willing to try anything as i am finding out timing is just as critical as the right button combo, did i forget to mention, coming from the other side of the tracks where disarray is the norm i foolishly attempted to load snow leopard in attempts to back load and move forward, not sure the extent of damage it is capable but i haven't read any 5,4,3,or 2 star remarks, so if any help before coughing up the 50 is greatly appreciated, chuckles are welcome too....if  you cant laugh at yourself at times really what is  the point ha! thx again however it pans out, good day 

    Are you prepared to lose all your data and do an erase and install?
    If so, and you are certain that the Mac had Lion pre-installed when new, and not an earlier version of OS X, then you probably need to do an Internet Recovery, which requires booting holding down Command + Option + r while starting up and doing an erase and install. You'll need a reliable connection to the internet as Lion will be re-downloaded and it is a 4gb+ download.
    So far as Apple is concerned, if Lion was installed when new, you are entitled to re-install it without charge. More details here, but post back if you need clarification:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4718
    I'm not certain, but it's possible that intenet recovery will allow you to re-install without erasing your data, which would be good. It may depend on how much things are mucked up.
