I tried updating my macbook software and now I have a black blank screen, how do i fix this?

I was updating my computer and after the restart my computer had a complete black and blank page. I know that it is on because I was able to take a CD out but I just cannot see anything. PLEASE HELP!

What were you upgrading? I mean was this a new OS like Mavericks or just some application upgrade?
Try restarting the machine and holding down the Command and R keys. Does it boot to the Recovery partition and can you see it? That at least tells if this is a hardware problem.

I updated to java 7 and now my yahoo games will not work, how do i fix this?

i updated to java 7 and now my yahoo games will not work, how do I fix this?

kathieaross,
click on the Java pane in System Preferences. When the Java Control Panel window opens, click on the Security tab, and set your Security Level to Medium — that will allow “untrusted” applications (i.e. those without certificates from a trusted authority) to run. Press the Apply button in the lower-right corner to confirm the change, then press the OK button to close the window.
Apparently your Yahoo! card games don’t have certificates associated with them, which is why the default security setting of Java SE 7 Update 51 didn’t allow them to run.

I Don't know if I can turn it of or do I just leave it and take it to service?
I'd appreciate some advice!

Same thing happened here ~ tech guy at a local authorized Apple repair store said it had something to do with improper backup from which the restore would be made. Still have a phone that asks to be connected to Itunes but won't do anything else . . . frustrated.

HT1212 I have a new iPhone 5c, I have an old iTunes acct. had to reset my password because I can't remember my old password? I guess I tried too many times and now it says it is disabled. How do I fix this?

I have a new IPhone 5c, and an old iTunes acct. I changed my password because I forgot it. I guess I tried it too many times and now my apple iTunes is disabled. How do I fix that?

You might be able to re-enable it via this page : http://appleid.apple.com, then 'reset your password'
You might then need to log out of your account on your phone by tapping on your id in Settings > iTunes & App Store and then log back in so as to 'refresh' the account on it.
If that doesn't fix it then you might need to contact iTunes Support : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page

I have downloaded and installed the 10.6.8 V1.1 Combo pack but this didn't fix the problem.

Hi Jackson,
Since you have already done a restore of your iPhone, I would suggest that you now try restoring your iPhone to factory settings, set it up again and test before you restore your content. This article describes the process -
Use iTunes to restore your iOS device to factory settings
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414
Note - It is important that you follow this stop:
Use iTunes to back up your device and transfer and sync any additional content to your computer.
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.

I tried updating my Macbook Pro and now it won't work?

I had OS Mountain Lion 10.8.2 for my MacBook Pro (version: late 2012) and I tried updating the operating system. The update was about three out of seven minutes in when a box popped up and said there was an error updating and that the process must restart. I clicked "okay" and waited for a couple of minutes but my screen was all gray and nothing else. I thought my MacBook froze, so I manually restarted it by holding down the power button and then pressing it again and now my screen is gray with the apple symbol and black coded text with writing such as "Unable to find driver for this platform", "Mac OS Version: Not yet set" and "System uptime in nanoseconds: 242856217", along with a series of codes such as " panic(cpu 0 caller 0xffffff8008c59241)". The screen is stuck like this and will not change. I have tried manually restarting it but it just keeps showing this screen. How can I fix this?
Thanks in advance!

Reboot your laptop while holding the alt/option key then I prefer you connect your laptop to an Ethernet cable because wifi gets slow . We'll, now choose the recovery driver. After that choose reinstall whatever software and just wait for a few hours for the thing to install and then your basically done hopefully no files will be earased since that is what I did and everything was perfectly fine no files lost, nothing
Good luck

HT4623 I tried to update my ipad but an error was received halfway through download and now the ipad is locked up. How do I fix this?

I was going to update my software for the IPad and I connected it to Itunes it synced up and brought up the ipad but didn't have the name, serial number or anything else but a question mark. After being synced and trying to doa software update of about 15-20 mins it suddenly brought up a dialog box and said it couldn't update the ipad until it was restored. I then hit the restore button and after a couple of minutes it didn't do anything and it disconnected me from itunes and now the only thing on the screen is the apple. I can not get it to do anything. I have tried to sync to itunes but nothing. If you push the button on the screen and the top button at the same time it will shut down. Can somebody please help me????

I had the same problem. In the end I downloaded it manually. Here's the steps assuming you are on a Mac and have an iPad Air (Wifi). If not you can find other restore links here.
In the terminal (it kept failing to download in Safari):
curl http://appldnld.apple.com/iOS7.1/031-4521.20140310.D2Ydl/iPad4,1_7.1_11D167_Rest ore.ipsw >>~/Desktop/iPad4,1_7.1_11D167_Restore.ipsw
Once the file has downloaded, move it to ~/Library/iTunes/iPad Software Updates/
Quit and relaunch iTunes.
Should now work for you.
