i own an ipod touch 5th gen ios 7.1 and while using it suddenly black and white vertical stripes appeared on the screen and now it wont turn on!!!what should i do?
Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try another cable
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

A black stripe appeared on the screen of my iPad mini
A black stripe appeared vertically on the screen of my iPad mini.
I tried to restart it, many times. It continue appearing.If something like a reset doesn't clear it then you may need to contact Apple : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

My IMac is frozen with the screen white ,apple logo appears and a spinning wheel under it. A long empty rectangle empty appears under the wheel and is empty.
Your iMac is trying to go into safe. This usually happens when it has detected an issue with the OS or file system.

I am new to iMac and thinking about subscribing to itunes match. Is it worthwhile and if I want to still store music on the iMac in iTunes am I able to still do this even if I do not renew the subscription in a years time. Thank you for your help.

Oh and also, I have set up 4 user log ins one for each member of the family will the same itunes library be used by each person in their own log in or will they have to have their own match subscriptions?

Repeatedly, this error code suddenly appears on the screen and I don't have a clue what it means or what to do: "A script in this movie is causing Adobe Flash Player to run slowly. If it continues to run, your computer may become unresponsive. Do you want to abort the script?
No Yes"Hi,
Some "movies' are actually Flash files.
This means the Flash App will play them (possibly in a browser in some cases).
Depending where this item is and how it is playing it may be effected by other things
A web page can include javascript.
Apple uses javascript here to help with creating the posting box, the Edit options, Adding pics/smilies and the like.
Sometimes the javascript can be what is called a runaway process and gets sort of stuck in an endless loop.
If it is a free standing item then it might be triggered by AppleScript on the Mac. (or be modified in some way)
Again if the Script (normally written with a upper case S) is not perfect it can cause problems.

If you purchased it from Apple, you are covered by the warranty - take advantage of it and call them as that appears to be a graphics issue.

When I try to connect a USB cable a message appears on the screen
When I try to connect a USB cable a message appears on the screen saying that one or more USB devices are consuming to much energy and due to this the USB port were deactivated.
What should I do to solve this problem?
Do not forget is only a merely USB cable from a texas calculator, I have experienced to with an USB extension, and the same problem appears, I have tried to connect directly a USB memory stick and the IMAC do not recognise is presence, or appears thesame mesage as with the cable.Updated information:
I have perfomed as rkaufmann87 instruct me but without any success.
Then I made some more tests:
I have tried to connect three diferent types (Ipad usb cable; TI-Nspire CX CAS usb cable and an ordinary extension usb cable) of usb connectors cables and all of them with the same behaviour.
Viewing the IMAC from backside and looking to the usb ports from the left to the rigth the behaviour of the USB ports are diferent.
the two first more to the left when we try to connect a USB cable, a message appears on the screen, sayng that USB devices are consuming to much energy and due to this the USB port were deactivated (This is more or less the translation from Portuguese language).
The ones more to the rigth nothing happens, simply are dead, no message and no charge the IPAD, no connect the USB stick.
I really need yuor support, this IMAC is from November 2012. -

At log-in Firefox the screen opened up with the message "Oops, We're embarrassed, we are having trouble closing tabs" or similar wording directing me to click on a tab to continue, which I did. At which time a screen full of rows of thumbnail pictures of a young girl in appeared on the screen. Some of the pictures had the girl imitating a sexual act. When I tried to close out of the screen by clicking on the 'X' at the top right of the screen, another screen opened with another larger picture of this little girl. I finally got out of Firefox. When I open it up again the message wasn't on the screen. As these pictures were disturbing I cleared them out of my history.
My questions are - 1. Since these pictures appeared to be of a minor, can you backtrack to the source to find out where they originated and have something done about the individual who posted them? And,
2. - Did my clicking on the link as directed - by Firefox, I thought - open my computer up to the personal information on my computer being compromised?

I got my ipad2 replaced yesterday. And this new ipad started giving me problem by crashing aps. Then I restored the ipad twice but the problem was still there. I called apple and they fixed it by doing Reset All Settings. But now I have this weird problem. When I open Mail the screen flickers random blue and gray appeared on the screen. I took a video too. Will that happen again? Is it hardware problem? This ipad2 32GB was replaced yesterday and I think it is refurbished. Are replace product refurbished?
There is no way for anyone here to know if your replacement iPad is a refurbished unit. Per Apple's replacement policy, replacements can be refurbished units. If you feel the unit is not working correctly, take it back, let them check it out and if found defective, they will replace that unit.

When I plug in apple tv the status light just blinks amber and nothing appears on the screen
When I plug in my apple tv (first gen) the status light just blinks amber and nothing appears on the screen. The status light never turns white and won't stops blinking amber. I've tried to over ride this with the remote, resetting it and trying to revert it to the factory settings. Is there a way to wake it up or is it a lost cause?
Welcome to the Apple Community.
The system looks like it's unable to start up, this could be software but more likely hardware, either way unless it will start up there is nothing a user can do to resolve this.
