At startup hold down the Option/Alt key and from the screen that comes up select your OS X partition to start the computer from. Then use the Boot Camp Assistant app to Remove Windows and the partition you reated for it and it will Automatically place the space you allocated for the Windows install back into the OS X partition.
NOTE:
Do NOT use Disk Utility to erase the partition that was created for the Windows install. Use the Boot Camp Assistant app again to do that.

Trying to reformat and reinstall windows but get black screen with cursor
Im trying to reformat my computer after a blue screen error and when i pop in my disk to reformat and install it goes through the first stuff...opening files then it says starting windows and then black screen with cursor..nothing else..i can move the
cursor but i cant click anything..nothing happens.Hi Marrik,
Is there any error code or error message displayed in the installation process ? because just based on your description in the post, it is difficult to find the root cause for a black screen even after a clean install, this might be caused by a corrupt installation
media or a hardware issue, so, I give two potential suggestion:
1.Try another Windows installation media and perform a clean install again to see the result.
2.Go to the computer vendor for hardware support, this also can be caused by a memory or hard disk issue.
Regards

Hey guys ı really need your help. I bought macbook pro retina 15 inch 2 weeks ago and it came with installed mavericks of course but ı want to create a recovery disk and to do that ı need to download mavericks installer from app store but when i click to download mavericks from appstore purchased part ı get a message says " Your purchasing process couldnt complete. OS X Mavericks cant be installed to this computer." How can ı solve this problem!??
One way around tis is to borrow a Mac that can run Mavericks and then the download will work. You can use these instructions:

Though they are for Mt. Lion, the same steps will work.

MacBook Pro 2102 black screen with cursor
When I opened my MacBook to use I only have a black screen with a light cursor at start up. Anyone else had this issue?
Here is a tip from a user. I have not tested this.
https://discussions.apple.com/thread/5994694?tstart=0
If this does not help and if you have a backup,erase and install OS X Mavericks.

Black Screen with cursor that doesn't move! Help!
Hi, a few months ago my family encountered a problem when we started up our laptop and it prompted us that our laptop failed to start. As usual, I just pressed "Launch Startup Repair". That lead us to a black screen with nothing else but a cursor
that DOES NOT move.
We put the laptop aside as none of us knew the resolution and somebody we knew might have been able to fix it, but unfortunately to this day he hasn't been over to help us out. Our laptop is still in the same state and we're very eager to get it working
without having to spend lots of money at a computer specialist.
Our specifications are as following:
Toshiba Satellite A660
Intel Core i5 CPU M 450
2.40GHz
4096 MB Memory
I am unable to get other specifications such as Video Card and Graphics Drivers as I cannot access the desktop.
Any fixes? We are very desperate to get this computer working.
< Disclaimer > We do have another PC in the household if that is necessary for the fix. Thank you.Hello PamelaMay,
What is your current situation?
Have you tried the solution as MVP Robear Dyer mentioned?
Best regards,
Fangzhou CHEN

Macbook air 2013 black screen with cursor, anyone has same problem?
And I found out that everytime when screen become black, it is 100% acompanied by wifi disconnection.
Sleep mode?
Quoting from below linked article from Apple:
"What happens when the Mac goes to sleep (not just into idle mode or display sleep)?"
"An AirPort card, if present, turns off "
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2412
If this is not the case, you have to contact Apple as soon as possible.

I have a mid-2009 13" Macbook Pro running OS X 10.9.4 and I've been noticing a problem lately (I think it used to happen before too but not as often as now). My screen will sometimes go black, and my cursor remains visible. It will stay like this, regardless of button mashing or trackpad tapping and clicking. It usually doesn't stay for too long but the other day it was staying like that for a good 5 minutes before switching back to the password-enter screen. It happens sometimes when the computer goes to sleep but sometimes it suddenly happens in the middle of use, stopping whatever I'm doing and locking me out for a few minutes. I want to know why this happens and how to prevent it from happening (or perhaps there just needs to be a patch?). What is particularly strange is that my girlfriend just bought a brand new Macbook Air and she already has the same exact problem as me.

I just bought a 15" macbook pro, do the cds that come with the mac have the drivers i need to update windows after installing windows using boot camp?
What DVDs are this ?
If it is OSX Snow Leopard Installation DVD then yes this disc contains the BootCamp Drivers version 3.x and is needed after the installation of Windows to install the BootCamp Drivers.
With OSX Lion BootCamp is at version 4.x and the BootCamp Drivers have to be downloaded during use of the BootCamp Assistant in OSX.

My Iphone 5 originally came from Japan. Being resident of the Phil., I let a Technician open it by using x-sim. But now, the maximim charging is up to 3 minutes only. Later on it goes down to 1 minute until it stopped opening up. Only black screen with an apple logo appearing sometimes when plugged to power outlet. Tried to press the power on, but it still wont open.
What might be the caise of all this. Is this a software or hardware problem? Or is it the battery that the technician suggested?johnbrave wrote:

When you answer your own question, you don't really need to post it in a support community. Go to the technician and seek your solution there. Apple can do nothing for you after unauthorized service. -
while i was running boot camp to install windows 7 i had to cancel operation. Now my mac comes up black screen with a curser at top
First of all, start your Mac with the Alt key pressed until the boot manager apears. If your keyboard is wireless probably you should press the power button at the same time you start the Mac.
After, go to Bootcamp Assistant and remove the windows partition and do all the process again.
Remember to remove all the USB/Firewire/Thunderbolt devices that are attached to the Mac during the windows installation.
Once windows boots for first time, install windows support software with all the drivers.
IMPORTANT: If the windows partition doesn't boot correctly (Black screen with white blinking cursos at the left top corner) do this steps to boot windows:
1- Start the Windows Installation DVD at system start.
2- Click on Repair System, not install.
3- Select Command Prompt
4- Run these 3 commands: (Press enter for each command)
Bootrec.exe /FixMbr
Bootrec.exe /FixBoot
Bootrec.exe /RebuildBcd
5- Exit command line (type exit)
6- Click on Restart button.
7- Boot the Mac and you will see that It automaticaly loads windows
Tell us how it goes!!
PS: Sorry for my bad english!!! -
I updated my Macbook Pro last week to Lion. I went to go import pictures from a memory card to my iPhoto, but only a portion of them loaded before my iPhoto froze and I had to Force Quit it. Now iPhoto won't even open... Help!
Please! I need an answer fast!!!!Option 1
Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
If that fails:
Option 2
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one. .
