IPad Mini will not boot after battery drained after IOS8.0.2 Update

I upgraded to IOS 8.0.2 having skipped 8.0.1 two days ago. I did not notice any unusual problems, but with hindsight a few apps did crash out on occasions, but not consistently.
Yesterday night I let the battery completely drain and I plugged it in to recharge overnight.
This morning I find that logo is still on screen and it doesn't look as if the iPad has recharged. I have tried re-booting a number of times, but it will not progress beyond the Apple Logo. I have tried connecting to iTunes on my Macbook Pro, but no device is recognised.
Having left the iPad sitting next to me while still connected to a charger, I have noticed on a couple of occasions a flash of blue screen followed by black and then the Apple Logo appearing again.
My iPad Mini Retina 128Gb appears very dead at the moment. Any suggestions on revival?

Try to put your iPad into DFU mode and do a full restore this way. To do so, follow the steps below:
1. Open iTunes on your computer
2. Connect your iPad via USB.
3. Press and hold the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons for about 10 seconds.
4. Release the Sleep/Week button but keep pressing the Home button until iTunes shows that it has detected and iPad in DFU mode.
5. Try restoring your iPad.
If this won't solve your problem, and you are not able to do a restore via iTunes at all, then take your iPad to an Apple Retail Store because then it is possibly a hardware failure. Here you can find the service options: https://getsupport.apple.com/ProductSelector.action

HELP Mac Mini will not boot after 10.5.1 update

After I tried installing 10.5.1 I received a warning message that the update will not be installed because of an error and I should contact the vendor. After that the Mini tries to reboot. It keeps repeating the process over and over. I have tried to do safe boot mode by manually turning off the computer and then restarting while holding shift, but nothing happens. Can anybody help?

I think the problem might be with the external HDD I am running with this machine. I am reinstalling everything now from my time machine backup. I just added this hard drive the other night and it is loud as all **** and I believe it is why my machine has crashed. Before I added the drive, my system was running pretty good. It is a Calvary 160gb drive. I think I am going to have to send this POS back to newegg and get myself another Lacie drive, because my other Lacie is running smoothly.
I'd go with the LaCie. I got two from Amazon, 320 and 500 and both are quiet, have 800MHz FW and I have had no problems with either of them. The new one also has a 3-position switch - Off/Auto/On which allows it to sleep when not being accessed when in Auto.
I suspect that your external HD was the problem all along.

Brand new Mac Mini will not boot after 10.6.6 Update

Problem is exactly as described here: http://forums.macresource.com/read.php?1,1069909,1070656
The 1st restart was fine then it restarted for the 2nd time & it got to the gray screen with Apple logo & spinner. It sat there much longer than it ever had before then the Apple changed to a circle with a slash.
I tried booting into single user mode and it is hanging "waiting for root device"

Sounds like maybe your disk died.
I suggest that you boot from the install DVD that came with your Mac and run AHT to check it out.

Mac Mini will not boot after Security Update 2008-007

Hello,
A G4 Mac Mini machine I was asked to take a look at will not boot after the owner (succesfully) installed Security Update 2008-007 from Software Update. Booting always hangs at the blue screen after the Apple logo, and booting in verbose mode reveals that WindowServer is crashing repeatedly. Permissions and filesystems have been repaired, PRAM reset, etc. Safe boot also exhibits the same problem, but it is possible to boot to single user mode. Hardware checks out fine with diagnostic utilities.
Any suggestions on how to fix this? Unfortunately, backups are not available (it's not my machine =).

Hi Arkku , and a warm welcome to the forums!
I'd certainly give Sig's advice a try first.
If that should fail...

"OK, restart your computer, hold down Command-s and type in the following:
/sbin/fsck -fy Enter
/sbin/mount -uaw Enter
rm /var/db/.applesetupdone Enter
# The rm command is the remove command which deletes the file.
# Robert: I'd rename the file via: mv /var/db/.applesetupdone /var/db/.applesetupdone.old
reboot Enter
Once you've done that the computer reboots and it's like the first time you used the machine. Your old accounts are all safe. From there you just change all other account passwords in the account preferences!!

Ipad mini will not restore after ios update 7.1.2

Hi Community,
I recieved a message last night about the update 7.1.2 for my ipad mini. I left my ipad on overnight while plugged in while it was updating. i woke up this morning seeing my ipad must be connected to itunes. I connect my ipad to itunes and it must be restored. Every time i try to restore and update the ipad from itunes i get the error code 3004. I have tried hard resetting the ipad, re-downloading the latest version of itunes, and disconnecting and reconnected the usb plug.

Hello, Ronald.
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
Here are the steps that I would recommend going through when experiencing error 3004.
Resolve network errors
Related errors: 17, 1004, 1013, 1638, 3014, 3194, 3000, 3002, 3004, 3013, 3014, 3015, 3194, 3200, or "There was a problem downloading the software," or say the "device isn't eligible for the requested build.". These alerts mean that your computer is either having difficulty contacting the Apple update server or communicating with your device.
Check your computer for software or settings that might cause communication issues between your computer and Apple or between your computer and your device.

2012 MBP will not boot after 10.8.4 update

Has anyone else had problems with booting to 10.8.4? I have a 2012 15" MBP with dual boot 10.8.4 and Win 8 via BC on a single Seagate Thin SSHD 1TB. Win 8 will boot but the OS X drive will not even mount during boot. I tried single user, verbose, safe, fsck, DU, recovery all to avail because the system no longer recognises the drive because it will not mount.
Now, this same thing happened two weeks ago and I eventually replaced the stock Hitachi 1TB with the aforementioned Seagate. I am now using the Hitachi as an external drive and it is working just fine after erasing/formatting. I refuse to believe it is a HDD issue seeing how Windows still boots fine.
Does anyone out there have a long term solution? I cannot believe that I need to completely wipe my drive every two weeks and reinstall/restore/recover my system. I never had this problem prior to updating to 10.8.4. Any help would be appreciated.

same **** happend to me after I updated my retina macbook pro I had to take it to the Apple store to have it reinstalled and updated

IMac will not boot after 10.10.2 update

Hello all, I could really use some help. I downloaded 10.10.2 from the app store on my iMac (previously upgraded to Yosemite through app store), and when the system restarted, I would see the white screen with the apple logo and the progress bar about a third of the way across. then the system would ether restart or hang. Here is what I have done so far.
1. I am unable to boot to recovery mode using 'command R'... nothing happens and it goes back to the apple logo and a progress bar that get to a third of the way and stops.
2. I am able to press 'option' during boot and get 3 options for loading (system, recovery, and a Yosemite install disk i made on a USB). selecting any of these options returns me to the apple logo and the progress bar that gets stuck at a one third complete.
3. I am able to select safe and verbose mode. the machine will sometimes get all the way to "system up time in milliseconds" before it reboots.
4. I am able to boot to single user mode. I have run '/sbin/fsck -fy' until it no longer displays 'modification have been made' and it displays 'volume appears to be ok" (takes 2 runs). from here i have tried both rebooting, and exiting, both result in the white screen with the apple logo and the progress bar getting to a third of the way.
5. i have tried clearing the NVRAM
6. I don't have another mac with firewire or thunderbolt to try targeted disk mode
7. i have had 1 success in getting to the log in screen using verbose mode. during the boot there was a whole screen of the same line repeated many times, it said "BUG in process suhelperdt[167]: over-released legacy external boost assertions (1 total, 1 external, 0 legacy-external). after i logged in it reported that the system has un-expectedly shutdown, and that it would send a report to apple (is this a kernel panic?). i hit yes and then show the details. then the system hung up, and rebooted. then hung up again during boot with the same "BUG" message above.
I've got good time machine backups, and don't mind doing a complete reload if i can ever get to that option.
Thanks in advance for the help.

I have a 27 inch imac (10,1 late 09) that was doing the same intermittently during 10.10.2. In a fit of frustration, I updated yesterday to 10.10.3 and now the computer is doing exactly as you describe. I cannot get past the white screen at all. I have booted into recovery, verified and fixed the drive even though it it checked out fine. and attempted a fresh download on a clean partition. nada... i can get into safe mode, and I tried installing the SMC fan control, switching off transparency, and lowering my resolution. none worked.
I was convinced my hard drive was dying (when I had 10.10.2), and replaced it last week with a SSD. The SSD ran great for about a week, then had the same problems. I never had a problem with 10.10.1 or prior. I have checked my ram, and that does not fix the problem (swapping all four into the front dime slots in sequence).
This computer has run great since 09, and I have never had any issues until now, but it is now a very expensive paperweight. I cannot do the internet recovery that sets up the original OS the machine shipped with (too old for that feature), and it will not let me download a previous version of OS X from the app store (I have mavericks, lion, etc there).
I think my apple love affair is officially over. Looks like i will be searching for a pre-yosimite computer to download a usb version of mavericks or lion, and I sure as **** am not buying another apple product in the near future! I was very close to pulling the trigger on a new macbook, sure glad I did not waste my money -again-.

Mac Mini will not boot after getting SBOD

Hi,
I was having problems with my Mac Mini being really slow to respond last night. I kept getting the SBOD every time I tried to move between applications or even between sites in Safari. It took an age to log on, sitting on the 'checking password' screen for minutes at a time every time I woke if from sleep/screensaver.
In the end I shut everything down this morning and tried a restart - however I ended up having to leave it before it had started up and go to work. Returning tonight it was still stuck on the grey screen with the wheel.
I tried both a couple of suggestions I found on a 'freezing after upgrading to 10.6..' thread - one was to reset the SMC, the other was to rest the PVRAM (or something like that - it involved holding down command-option-P-R) at start up. Both were unsuccessful - it's still sat here with the grey screen & the spinning wheel.
Any suggestions on what to do next? I've assumed that I'm on the latest version of Snow Leopard as I always tend to install the latest updates - but I can't be sure ... and obviously I have no way of checking!
HELP!

I tried the Disk Utility, which was unable to repair the problems. It then got worse, after not finding anyway to shut down (the only options I had were restart or start up disk) I just switched it off. Completely forgetting that this wouldn't eject the DVD! I then tried starting up again with the install DVD in an effort to try and find a way to eject the DVD, but now it just gives me a grey screen, no Apple logo, no gear wheel.
I now have an appointment with the Genius Bar today.

IPhone 3GS Will not boot after iOS 4.3 Update....

I updated my wife's 3GS last night and when it was done it rebooted and started filling up the line under the apple logo like it always does after the software is loaded but after the bar fills up, the phone locks up and does not go past the apple logo with a full bar under it. - iTunes also locks up when you connect the phone. I've tried to restore it but it does the same thing.... any ideas?

You're further than I am!! Mine's frozen on the apple with an empty progress bar. And absolutely nothing seems to be working. I've tried taking the SIM card out, tried restoring to previous system, but Itunes won't recognise the phone. It's absolutely doing my head in and I'm going out of town in the morning and really don't fancy being without my phone!

I Have the same issue on a brand new iPad mini 2. My battery is only lasting up to 5 hours. I went on chat with Apple last night and they said my battery is fine and its a Safari issue. I'm literally losing 1% every 3-4 minutes. I tried recalibrating my battery, signing out of iCloud, shutting off all locations, turning off background app refresh, restoring network settings, restoring all, and finally restoring from iTunes with no luck. This is just awful. I got this iPad so I could use it on my long flight for a trip I have coming up, and unfortunately, it's not going to last that long, plus I'm concerned about how many times i will be recharging my battery because of this since battery's do have a life cycle dependent on the number of charges. This is frustrating and needs to be fixed ASAP and addressed by Apple.
By the way, Apple told me to bring my device to the Apple Store because it's still under warranty. That's great and all, but I'm going to waste my time if there is no fix for this issue.
Ok so you want Apple to address the problem, but yet you don't want to take it to them just in case they can't fix it? What if they can fix it? Complaining here certainly won't fix it.

Hello, pleaseacceptthisalias.
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
I would first start with forcing all applications to close and power cycle the device. Once this is done, have someone make a test call using these applications. If the issue persists, see the steps in the second article.
