  • When I power up my ipad air the apple logo comes up like it should then the lock screen only comes up for a second or less so I can't swipe it fast enough.

    When I power up my iPad Air the Apple Logo comes up like it should then the lock screen only comes up for a second or less so I can't swipe it fast enough to get to the home page. The lock screen just disappears. I have to hit the sleep/wake or home button to bring the lock screen back up so I can swipe it. Have others found this situation with the iPad Air. I have an iPad 2 and it does not happen at all. The Apple store checked it out. One rep said to me this is unusual and had a tech check it out and they said this is normal. If the iPad is suppose to be user friendly, why this extra step to get to the lock screen? Are other owners of the iPad Air having the same problem? If so, what have you done to correct it?

    Try this  - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.) No data/files will be erased.

  • My ipad 1 isnt working it is just showing the apple logo on the screen can anyone help me?

    my ipad 1 isnt working it is just showing the apple logo on the screen can anyone help me?
    If you can help me facetime me at [email protected] or msg me.

    It would help to know whether it ever did work, or is this a new iPad for you?  If new, you need to connect it to a Mac/PC that's running iTunes in order to register and initialize it.  If it used to work, try doing a reset.

  • I have downloaded ios 6 on my ipad 2 but it wouldn't install and now my ipad won't work (just has the apple logo on the screen periodically) or reset. Any ideas? Thanks in advance.

    Try restoring the device using iTunes. Connect the iPad to your computer and when iTunes opens, select your device on the left side, then click on the summary tab, then click on Restore.
    After the device is restored you will have an opportunity to restore from your backup. Restore from the backup when you are done and then sync with iTunes.
    if that doesn't work, try recovery mode.

  • Help.  ipad air flashes between white apple logo and unlock screen?

    help.  ipad air flashes between white apple logo and unlock screen?  how do i fix this ?

    You can try resetting your iPad by simultaneously pressing and holding the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons until you see the Apple Logo. This can take up to 15 seconds so be patient and don't release the buttons until the logo appears.
    Try again to see if the problem persists.

  • Ipad mini cycles from apple logo to start screen and wont stop

    Ipad mini cycles from apple logo to start screen and wont stop. Will not shutdown. Cycles every 5-8 seconds. Thanks!

    I'm having the same problem.  Since it's the same problem, I thought I'd pigtail on this thread, rather than clutter up the forum with a duplicate.  I can start a new thread if this is not appropriate.
    I have tried a reset, using the sleep/wake and home buttons, with no success.  I have also restored to factory settings, then restored to backup.  It's still rebooting itself.
    iPad Mini wifi (not Retina).  iOS 7.1.1.
    This problem started today.  I updated to 7.1.1 soon after the update was released.

  • Imac intel 10.4 wont start up. i don't get apple logo as the screen just goes white.

    If you don't know the model, find the Serial# & use it on one of these sites, but don't post the Serial# here...

    I think we need more clarification.
    What do you mean by "download"? Only updates are available as downloads, the System software has to be installed from a DVD.

    Connect to iTunes and restore. If you have difficulty, you may have to put the device into Recovery Mode. See the instructions in this support document. If you can't update or restore your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support

  • I have reset my iphone 5c and now has apple logo on the screen. I have tried holding home and lock buttons for 10 seconds, but to no avail. How do i sort this please ?

    I have reset my iphone 5c and now it has the apple logo on the screen.  Nothing is happening, apart from the screen going off for a few seconds, only to go back to black screen and white apple log.  I have tried holding home and lock buttons for 10 seconds, but to no avail.  I did a reset on settings as the IOS 8 was just slowing down my phone horrendously.   How do i sort this please ?

    Hi MartinH78,
    If your iPhone isn't responding or won't start up past the Apple logo, you may find the troubleshooting steps outlined in the following article helpful:

  • My iphone 5 died so I plugged it back in to charge and it will not turn on. It will turn to the screen with the apple logo and black screen then turn off again. Any suggestions?

    My iphone 5 died so I plugged it back in to charge and it will not turn on. It will turn to the screen with the apple logo and black screen then turn off again. Any suggestions?

    I leave it charging until it gets back to full, usually it turns on after a little bit of time after plugging it in, but all its doing is going to the apple logo screen and going blank again.

  • Failed Leopard installation, now just show apple logo over white screen.

    I just received OS X Leopard (not the new one, I'll buy it tomorrow) in order to upgrade to the new OS X snow Leopard. During the installation (took over 30 minutes to calculate the installation time that it was supposed to be 2 hr 49 min, I don't know if that's the average installation time). After about an hour of installation appeard a big yellow triangle (warning) over a message box saying something like "Installer couldn't verify 'Essentials' on the DVD, please contact the software manofacturer or try to install later". After restart the iMac it never rebooted, just shows the apple logo with the spinning circle, I left it that way last night while I was searching on the net for some help and iMac kept doing the same over 24hrs (apple logo over white screen). After reading on the forums I reboot with command+s and these are the two messages that are coming once and again in an endless loop:
    First Message:
    Aug 29 01:46:56 tony-guerreros-computer com.apple.launchd[1](com.apple.KernelEventAgent[2228]: posix_spawnp("/usr/sbin/KernelEventAgent", ...): No such file or directory
    Second Message:
    Aug 29 01:46:56 tony-guerreros-computer com.apple.launchd[1](com.apple.usbmuxd[2229]: getpwnam("_usbmuxd") failed
    The number [2228] goes to [2229] then [2230] to the fist msg again, then [2231] to the second msg,.... in an endless loop.
    Before this I have never experienced any trouble with this iMac. I don't know what to do now because it doesn't reboot and I don't have any boot disk besides TechTool Deluxe.

    "Ok. But once I got the replacement disk the iMac will boot with the installation disk even though it now stills "gone" and unable to boot by itself? I mean, the installation disk is a bootable disk by itself?"
    Read what you wrote and clarify it. You got the replacement disk? Yes or no. Yes the installer disk is a bootable disk. How else did you try to install Leopard?

  • 3rd Generation Nano only gets Apple logo on main screen need a full reset?

    Was just given a 3rd generation nano for one of my kids.  I cannot seem to unlock it (apple logo only on screen).  Need to reset.  When I hold down menu and center button, it just goes back to apple logo.  Am I out of luck?

    Try manually forcing the iPod into disk mode using the instructions in this Apple support document and restoring it in iTunes.

  • I am only seeing an Apple logo on the screen even after restarting.

    So, my son usually is watching netflix on his AppleTV and comes to tell me from time to time that Netflix isn't playing the videos since the beginning.  We unplug or reset and everything is fine.  Also if my TV goes to standby from inactivity after the AppleTV turns off, turing the AppleTV on wake up the TV.  Well lately when the TV wakes up, it doesn't see anything from the AppleTV. Tonight my son comes out to tell me all he sees is the apple logo on the screen.  I think it is updateing, nope.  I do everything from unplugging and reset.  Nothing helps.  I unplugged for a while to cool it off, no help.  I am kind of mad that I hadn't looked up the warranty earlier cause it expired 8 days ago.  The reason I didn't really think there was too much of a problem when it wasn't showing picture a few times, is because I have had kind of problems with it before due to software issures.  So, is this the "apple of death" sign?

    Are you near an Apple store? If so make a Genus appointment and take it in.
    If you have a micro USB to USB cable you could connect it to your computer to see if iTunes sees it.
