Installed FilePro now white screen... HELP

I installed a program created by FilePro on a coworker's ibook this afternoon for work purposes and now there's only a white screen. She had to force a shutdown and restarted the ibook but still gets the white screen. Any suggestions?

Hi, and welcome to Apple Discussions.
Try booting into Safe Mode. This will take quite awhile longer than a normal startup because it does a file check and repair of the hard disk.
If this works you will see your normal desktop. Once completely started up in Safe Mode, try to restart normally, and go to Applications > Utilities > Disk Utility. Click on the top hard drive icon in the left sidebar and note the S.M.A.R.T. status at the bottom right of the pane. What does it say?
Select the named boot volume in the left sidebar, ("Macintosh HD" unless you've renamed it). What is the hard drive capacity and how much space remains available on it? Repair permissions on it.
See if you are able to do a little hard drive maintenance to help things out.

Curve 8530 White Screen, help please?

I have a white screen. It did not get damaged or wet in any way. I can hear my phone ringing, hear alerts and see the LCD indicator light flashing. I cannot press any buttons to answer the phone or see the screen. The screen will only turn white when charging and hooked up to the computer, it will not respond to any pushes of any buttons. My device is recognized by the desktop manager on my computer. I have done the update to 5.0 Bundle 1675. I have also done a back up. My supported networks are CDMA 800 and 1900. I have tried rebooting both by taking the battery out before and after updating to the new version. I have NO hourglass, just the white screen. Any ideas?

Hi
You've certainly been trying to sort it. Try my own method because it involves wiping the device completely. You have a backup so you should be good.
This what I did to completely wipe my BB. I wrote this before starting and printed it off.
If your device is functioning, perform a backup now if you haven't already done so saving the file to a place and in a name that you can easily locate on computer.
I then uninstalled DTM and then deleted all other references to BB/Rim in Windows Explorer thus removing the OS for the BB from the computer in order to ensure that the version I would reinstall would be a brand new downloaded version.
Get the latest Desk Top Software (DTS)
http://us.blackberry.com/apps-software/desktop/?CPID=OTC-DSKTPSW&cp=OTC-DSKTPSW
and install it on the computer.
Get the correct latest version of the OS
http://us.blackberry.com/support/downloads/download_sites.jsp
and save it to computer.
To erase all the data on your BlackBerry device, complete the following steps.
1) Download JL_Cmder from http://www.4shared.com/get/oqP9V-2Q/JL_Cmder_v19.html
2) Install JL_Cmder to computer.
3) Double check you have already backed-up the BB. If you DO NOT, you will lose ALL data.
4) Make sure the DTS is closed and plug in the BB to computer via USB
5) Go to the JL_Cmder on your computer and double click it to start. Now,this may take a few tries to connect, so keep trying until it does.
6) On the first screen, Press any key to continue.
7) Now, if your device uses a password, enter it now. If not, press "N"
8) Press 4 to initiate the WIPE
9) Press "Y" to continue
10) Now type "blackberry" to continue
11) On the BB you will see a white screen with a'507' Error. Don't worry, this is what you want! You are now ready to install the OS.
Launch the new Desk Top Software on the computer
1). On the home screen of the BlackBerry® Desktop Software, click Device > Update my device.
2). Click View Other Versions. Click the version of the new OS you previously downloaded.
3). Click Install. The DTM will install the OS and then provide you with a list of applications to install. If you have had difficulties with an app, do not install it.
Do not disconnect the device until the whole process is completed and the device has rebooted.
After 10 minutes reboot again by removing the battery whilst powered-on and leave it out for a couple of minutes.
Leave it again for 10 minutes. You should now have a fully functioning BB!

Installed Lion then white screen of death

Hello I just installed Lion based on an email that said I had to switch for the migration from Mobile Me to ICloud. As soon as it downloaded, there was a problem. A screen came up that said, problem loading restart to try again. I did and now I have the white screen of death with a flashing apple, file with a question mark and the no symbol, I.e. circle with a line through it. I've shut down at least twice but when I restart all I get is the white screen and flashing symbols. Everything is backed up via my time machine but this is crazy. Pls help. Thank you. T

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
The purpose of this exercise is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login. Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. The instructions provided by Apple are as follows:
Be sure your Mac is shut down.
Press the power button.
Immediately after you hear the startup tone, hold the Shift key. The Shift key should be held as soon as possible after the startup tone, but not before the tone.
Release the Shift key when you see the gray Apple icon and the progress indicator (looks like a spinning gear).
Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including wireless networking on certain Macs.
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
Test while in safe mode. Same problem(s)?
After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode.)

Ipad error 37 and white screen HELP!!

Hi,
I have an Ipad 1 not jailbroken and using itunes on a windows xp machine.
Two days ago I had a notification on my ipad showing an update for the ios was available it started to download wirelessly. When I can back to check the device later it was showing a blank white screen. I have connected to the computer which detects the ipad in recovery mode and attempts to complete a restore. Every time this throws up the error 37.
I have disabled all antivirus software tried the update on three machines and two different wireless providers and still returns the same error. It goes fine up until about 80% and verifying firmware with apple servers then throws the error up.
I have tried everything DFU, restore, ammending windows hosts file and nothing.
The ipad is 2 months outside of it's warranty however it was working perfectly up until apples update
Any help will be appreciated

Hi,
Well the apple store was less than useless! They said that it was a hardware failure that apparently occurred by coincidence at the same time as the apple update. the level of customer service is appalling.
In the end after wasting my time with the so called genius staff. They told me without paying 158 to repair it there was no way of fixing it.
So i came home downloaded the latest version of redsnow, jailbroke it, you have to have the most recent redsnow which is a tethered((( jailbreak (if its not the most recent redsnow i was getting the firmware 6000 ms error.
Jailbroke pad and works perfect now, still won't restore through itunes but it works and I've now discovered the benefits of jailbreaking the pad anyway.
will never buy an apple product again though customer service is shocking

HT201263 Ipod white screen HELP!

hey i have an ipod touch 4th gen and this morning it went to white screen and i cannot connect to my itunes because it isnt recognizing my ipod for some reason (i am guessing because of the white screen). When i try to reset my Ipod with holding lock and home button it shows me the apple then goes back to white screen. I have never encountered this problem before so I am stuck, and will this possibly result in my ipod being dead and me having to get another one.
This was coused by me trying to update to ios 6 and it just radomly stopped and wen to white screen.

I had the same problems: constant white screen (or sometimes white with colored lines) and iTunes would not recognize the iTouch. After much experimenting, I was finally able to recover my iTouch using the following steps:
1. Update iTunes to the latest version.
2. Allow the iTouch to fully drain. (Mine was so locked up that the 2-button hold reboot wouldn't work anymore. You might try skipping this step if yours isn't quite as angry!).
3. With iTunes running, connect the iTouch to the PC.
4. Hold both the buttons until the Apple symbol appears, THEN KEEP HOLDING until a "connect to PC" screen appears.
At this point, iTunes finally recognized it long enough to allow me to select "recover". As the update was downloading, the iTouch lost connectivity. After the download was complete, I repeated step 4 above, and was able to select recover again. Although it took a very long time, eventually the recovery completed, and iOS6 was installed.
By the way, if you are like me and did not have the latest iTunes installed, the restore process will download some version of iOS5 (instead of iOS6) then refuse to go any further after the download is complete.
Hope this helps.

My MacPro won't Boot - stuck on White Screen - help?

I have a MAC PRO, it was asleep during a power outtage... Now when i try to restart the computer, it never boots - and gets caught in an endless white screen. I've tried to zap my PRAM, still nothing. I just ran out of my apple support, and they are telling me to bring it - is there anything I can do on my own to fix this without having to pay a fortune?

Google - your OEM DVD has AHT on its label
A storm can send too much juice down the modem line and fry the ethernet ports, as long as it is wired, does not need to be running - and sleep is still 'running.'
I consider UPS $200 to be worth investment - as much AppleCare and helps protect the PSU which costs more to replace. My modem had to be replaced (router seems okay) was $79.

Blackberry Curve 8520 - White Screen help!?

Hi,
I have started having problems with my Curve over the last couple of days. I'm sure you have heard of the problem before, battery gets to about 20/30% life & then a white screen appears. The only way to stop this is to plug the phone into the mains charger.
I have read other topics suggesting I backup all data then re-install the OS.. The problem is, my Blackberry Desktop Manager won't recognise my Blackberry. Windows makes the noise to suggest the phone has been found & the blackberry battery indicates its charging.
All help & suggestions would be excellent, thanks in advance.

plz needed hlep me blackberry 8520 white screen problam change lcd and ic problam is not solf plz hlep met his problam on raziqbbr

HT4623 iPod touch update.... Now white screen?

I updated my sons iPod touch (4th Gen) a couple of days ago as per its request. It then asked me to plug into iTunes.
When I plugged in, it said it needed to be restored from factory / back up.
I tried this but iTunes kept coming up as needed to restore.
After 32 minutes of the update attempting through iTunes, the iPod went back to the apple screen followed by a plain white screen, back to the apple screen. This is a constant between the 2 screens. You cannot switch off or do anything.
Help please.... My 7 year old son is heart broken
Thank you

If that not successful and you can't fully turn the iPod fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the reset, restore/recovery mode and DFU mode again..
- If still not successful that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

White screen: Already restored ipod. ok for a few minutes. Now white screen again. How do I fox it?

How can I restore my ipod touch? I had a white screen and followed instrucrtions to restore it. Normal Screendwas restored briefly, and is now showing a white display. Can this be fixed?

Try restoring your iPOd, first from backup and if problem persists restore to factory defaults/new iPod.
For how to restore, see the restoring topic of:
iTunes: Backing up, updating, and restoring your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch software
If still a problem you likely have hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

I-Pod Keeps Flashing A White Screen.HELP!

Every time I turn my i-Pod on it flashes a white screen with an i-Pod with a sad face on it and below it it reads," www.apple.com/support/ipod". Why is it doing this? The problem just started happening recently. Please, someone help me!

First try the standard reset.
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=61705
If that does not work, connect the iPod to the computer. Does iTunes see it? If so, try using the Restore button on the iPod's Summary tab (in iTunes). This will erase it and restore its original settings.
If that does not fix the problem, it is likely that that the hard drive has gone bad.

Dropped iPhone 3G - now white screen

The day after picking up my iPhone 3G, I pulled it out of my pocket and set it on a counter. It slipped and fell about 30" to the floor, now the screen is totally white with a thin, faint green line down the center. iTunes still recognizes the phone and it will sync.
I have done all the resets and restores suggested, including a new phone reset, nothing works.
AT&T says to deal with Apple, Apple says deal with AT&T. No insurance offered thru AT&T or it wouldn't be an issue.
Anyone know what I can do?

I am 400 miles from the nearest Apple store, so I guess I am outta luck there.
I called Apple about repairing it and what they told me is that for $199, they will replace it with a refurbished phone. Unfortunately, AT&T has no insurance or replacement program, so I guess I am stuck with a brick here and a two year commitment to that brick.
Anything I do on my own voids the warranty, and with all the problems that Apple has had with this phone, I would like to have some coverage.
Why doesn't Apple or AT&T offer insurance on these things. Every other phone AT&T sells has insurance coverage, but not the iPhone. If the dang thing can't survive a 30" fall then insurance is a must have.
I am starting to rant now, but this is frustrating. I have always stayed away from Apple products because they are so proprietary. Guess I should have stuck with my own advice.
