My ipad will not turn on; just a black screen with the apple symbol on it.
My nephew was on my IPad then I just frozed on him. So he tried to reset it but it only shows a black screen and the apple symbol on the front. The screen has been going off and on, like if it's trying to reset??? Is this a typical problem with the Ipad? Can the ipad get virus'?
Before taking your iPad to your Apple Store, reboot it: To reboot, hold the power and home buttons at the same time for at least 10 seconds (keep holding past the swipe to shut down bar if it appears) until the Apple Logo appears, then let go of both buttons and your iPad will reset. If that doesn't solve your problem, the next step would be connect to iTunes and restore your iPad. If that fails, THEN you take it to Apple.

hello, my ipad mini doent work i charged it till the next day and it didn't work i charged it again till the next day and it didn't work what should i do i didn't use my ipad for three days please i need help????
Didn't work in what way. Are you unable to start it up? Does it start but then freezes? Does the screen stay black when you turn it on?
Try this - press the home and power buttons and keep pressing them until the apple logo appears. -
So I have been using my iPad for a few months now and I recently noticed that the time display next to the playlist name in the music app that is supposed to display the total song count and time of a playlist is way off. I have a 25 song playlist that is around 2 hours on my computer appears as 2003 minutes on my iPad. It's a smart playlist limited to 25 songs if that makes any difference. Is this happening to anyone else? Any help would be appreciated!
Greetings,
First make an iCal backup, File > Export > Archive.
Remove the following to the trash and restart your computer:
Home > Library > Caches
Home > Library > Calendars > Calendar Cache, Cache, Cache 1, 2, 3, etc. (Do not remove Sync Cache or Theme Cache)
Home > Library > Preferences > com.apple.ical (There may be more than one of these. Remove them all.)
__NOTE: Removing these files will remove any shared (CalDAV) calendars you may have access to. You will have to re-add those calendars to iCal > Preferences > Accounts.
Once the computer is back up and running open iCal and test.
Hope that helps. -
I recently purchased an iPad after using a laptop and PC for years.

There is not a problem with the DSL or router. I am using the laptop now. Could someone please give this eectnically challenged individual assistance?
1. Turn router off for 30 seconds and on again

What is the easiest way to restore my ipod back to factory specs. It has a red circle with a red x in the middle,please help me to fix my ipod, until now i can't use my ipod..i tried all the procedures in Restore ipod from disk mode but still not working, please help me...
If you are unable to get the iPod into Disk Mode to try and restore it, it's a very good indication, as mentioned in the article, that the iPod's hard drive is damaged and in need of replacement either by Apple or a third party repair company.

is anbody there how does this work never done it before my macbook won't start past white screen with apple logo any ideas ?
Are you using a 10.6 Snow Leopard Install DVD? If yes, you can erase and install following these directions: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3910
You'll know whether or not it is a hard drive issue when you get to step 8 under "Part One: Erasing the hard drive". If you do not see your hard drive in the list on the left side of the Disk Utility window then you know the Mac isn't seeing it—could be a loose cable, but more likely hard drive failure.
If you can see it on the left, click on it and look at the bottom of the Disk Utility window. If you see something like "S.M.A.R.T status: failing" that is definitely a hard drive issue. Otherwise, you can just follow the directions for an erase and install!
Might be worth fixing depending how much a repair would cost. Genius Bar could at least diagnose it for you and give a repair estimate. I'd look at what a new or refurbished one with your same specs would cost though to see if the price differential is worth it... -
Ipad mini stuck on white screen with apple logo
I have a new iPad mini. only had it 2 weeks. used it this morning everything was fine. pluged in to charge, when I came back it is stuck on white screen with apple logo. I tried to reboot. that did not work. please help.
Have you tried resetting your iPad?
Reset: Press the Home and On/Off buttons at the same time and hold them until the Apple logo appears (about 10-15 seconds).
No data will be lost. -
ipod 4 is displaying blue frozen screen and black screen with apple logo. I try to turn power off but as soon as it goes out it automatically reboots. Plugged it into the usb port on my mac and it doesnt do anything. It doesnt appear in Itunes. Help?
Let the battery fully darain. After charging for an least an hour try a reset and restore. Use Recovery mode if necessary.
If not successful, then time for an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store. -
Macbook Pro (2011) froze while working, forced shut down, now won't turn on. Grey screen with apple logo and spinning wheel for hours. Help?
Unfortunately do not know the operating system since I never updated anything and I can't get in to it.
Thanks for your assistance.If you want to preserve the data on the boot drive, and it's not already backed up, you must try to back up now, before you do anything else. It may or may not be possible. If you don't care about the data, you can skip this step.
There are several ways to back up a Mac that is not fully functional. You need an external hard drive to hold the backup data.
1. Boot from the Recovery partition or from a local Time Machine backup volume (option key at startup.) Launch Disk Utility and follow the instructions in this support article, under “Instructions for backing up to an external hard disk via Disk Utility.”
2. If you have access to a working Mac, and both it and the non-working Mac have FireWire or Thunderbolt ports, boot the non-working Mac in target disk mode. Use the working Mac to copy the data to another drive. This technique won't work with USB, Ethernet, Wi-Fi, or Bluetooth.
3. If the internal drive of the non-working Mac is user-replaceable, remove it and mount it in an external enclosure or drive dock. Use another Mac to copy the data. -

Grey Screen with Apple Logo - HELP
First of all: I know there is another topic for this, but this is a different problem (i think?)
I was installing snow leopard... it came up with that green tick with restart below it. It shut down and when it booted up it went to the grey screen with apple logo and it hung there for 6 hours until I turned it off. The disc is still stuck in there (tried holding in the mouse button) and it won't come out. I also held in the C button which made the disc drive make a lot of noise.
Any help would be appreciated.Here there is a lot of topic about that subject.
By any change, have you completed all upgrade that your mac asked you before installing 10.6?
If yes, you're in this situation: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2990 , you can try to install it again. Some people said that it took them 3 times to make it works. -
MacBook will not start. I have restarted with original CD. I have used Utilities and "no problem" with hard drive. I have reset PRAM. I have tried safe boot. Nothing is work. Gray screen with Apple logo and rotating wheel. Thanks for any suggestions!
Snow Leopard is a Mac OS X version. You say that it's the version you have in your Mac (10.6.8). Do a back up of your files, format the hard drive (using Disk Utility) and reinstall again
