How to start MacAir with frozen blue screen and no light on keyboard?

How do I start my MacAir with frozen blue screen and no light on keyboard?

Hey 7manya,
Thanks for the question. I understand that you are experiencing an issue with your MacBook Air frozen on a blue screen. The following resource provides some troubleshooting steps that may help to resolve your issue:
OS X Mavericks: If you see a blue screen at startup
http://support.apple.com/kb/PH14061
If you see a blank blue screen or a blue screen with a colored pinwheel when you try to start your Mac, but starting up doesn’t progress, you may have a problem with damaged or incompatible startup items or software.
- If you are starting up from a DVD, it must be a disc that came with your Mac or OS X retail package. Discs from other Mac models may not work with your Mac.
- Restart your Mac in safe mode. If the Mac successfully starts up in safe mode, choose Apple menu > Restart to see whether the Mac will restart normally.
Start up in safe mode
- If you see the login window prompting you for a user name and password, but starting up doesn't progress, you may have incompatible login items.
If you think you have incompatible login items
- Repair your startup disk or disk permissions using Disk Utility.
Repair a disk
- Back up your disk, then reinstall OS X.
Reinstall OS X
Thanks,

My iphone 5 screen is black but touch works and i can screenshot but screen is still black after restore what should I do?

and i can screenshot but screen is still black after restore what should I do, could it be a loose cable in the phone under the metal shield?

Hello Dopeslayer242,
Thank you for providing the details of the issue you are experiencing with your iPhone. I would be concerned too if I only saw a black screen.
I recommend following steps 2-6 below for an issue like this:
If a single application is not responding or stops responding when it opens, you can force it to close.
If the device is unresponsive or if certain controls aren't working as expected, restart your device.
If the device remains unresponsive or does not turn on (or power on),reset your device.
If there is no video or if the screen remains black, verify that the device has enough charge to turn on:
If you are using an iPad, ensure that it's connected to the USB Power Adapter supplied with the device.
Let charge for at least twenty minutes, then see if it starts normally.
If there is no image on the screen, press the Sleep/Wake button to attempt to wake the device.
If the screen displays a red battery icon, continue charging the device until the battery is fully charged.
If the above steps do not resolve the issue, or the if the screen remains black or shows a persistent Apple logo, try restoring with iTunes:
Connect the device to your computer and open iTunes.
If the device appears in iTunes, select and click Restore on the Summary pane. Learn more about restoring iOS software.
If the device doesn't appear in iTunes, try to force the device into recovery mode, and then restore it.
If the above steps do not resolve the issue, contact Apple.
You can find the full article here:
iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3281
If you get to step 5, I recommend backing up your iPhone before performing the restore:
iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes

Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
Best,

Some filters mat not support some modes like CMYK. 32bit color, Lab etc. They seem to be listed but nor currently applicable. Note whem no document is open all are grayed out the when a simple clipboard image is open all are available.

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

- 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.
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

Hey, I am facing the same problem with my ipod 8GB black version.

IPad only has a black screen yet still lights up

My iPad 2 suddenly only has a black screen, however it lights up when home button or power button is pressed, but it is still a black screen! How do I fix this? Please Help!
I also have a game question but that is the least of my worries right now.

Hi,
With the iPad turned on try a reset by holding down both the Home icon and power button together for about 10 seconds, you should then see an Apple logo in the middle of the screen.
Let us know how you get on, good luck.
Regards,
Steve

IPod frozen white screen after cancelled wifi system update

My iPod Touch 4g has a frozen white screen after cancelling wifi update to ios 5.1. My update bar was frozen middle way through when doing wifi update to ios 5.1. So i reset ipod and it displayed an apple logo which faded into a white screen. not jailbroken.

I let battery drain, plugged into computer but when it booted up it booted to an apple logo with lines across the screen. It is frozen. iTunes did not recognise, it never showed up on iTunes. It is fading into a white screen.

MacBook Pro will not start up, get start up chime but screen does not light up. Any help?

Upon start up I hear optical drive checked, then get a start up chime but the screen does not light up. I have shut down by holding down power butto for 10 seconds also pulled battery and A/C power.

I had this same issue but after a new hard drive/ram install.
What solved the issue - and I hope this helps someone else who has the same problem:
1). Install new hard drive (with or without osx pre installed) or leave old one in in your case.
2). Remove all ram
3). Power on and wait 1 minute
4). Hold power button until it turns off
5). Install ram
6). Power back on
7). BOOM! It works again.

Ipad screen is locked. SLIDE function will not work but screen does still rotate.

ipad screen is locked. slide function will not work but screen does rotate...

Try this.
Reboot 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 if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

Ipod frozen on screen, won't connect to computer

My iPod touch from a few years ago is still frozen on a screen showing a USB plug going into the iTunes logo. If I plug it into the computer, a window pops up on the computer saying i must type in my passcode for it to connect, but the iPod is still on that screen. How do I fix it?

- Try placing the iPod in recovery mode and then try to restore. For recovery mode see:
iPhone and iPod touch: Unable to update or restore
- If that does not work try placing in DFU made and then restore

IPod Photo 30GB: Screen flickers white light & No display.

The screen of my sister's ipod keeps on flickering with a plain white light, and there is still no display even though you plug it in an outlet or connect it to a pc.
Could this be a problem regarding the ipod's battery? Or something to do with the ipod's LCD? The ipod has been almost a year old. Hoping to hear from anyone...
Thanks Alot

First make sure you have the latest ipod updater 06-28-2006. it can be downloaded here http://www.apple.com/ipod/download/
Now with the ipod disconnected from the PC, put it in "Disk Mode" http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93651 open the ipod updater THEN connect the ipod to the PC and restore it. Restoring will wipe the ipod clean of everything and reinstall the ipods software.
If you have songs on the ipod that are not on the PC, Id suggest copying them to the computer before doing this if you can. If you need help doing that just say so and I or someone can step you thru it

IPod frozen (bright screen) and not recognised by computer

I have a 5th Gen IPod 30GB that is frozen with a bright screen? no text? I have plugged it into my IMac and carried out all the normal reset procedures, however, the computer does not recognise the IPod as been fitted? Any help would be gratefully received!

I tried uploading some songs from my friends computer but when I plugged it into his usb port, it said the device wasn't recognizable. All I wanted to do was upload some of his songs from iTunes but that never happened...oh well.

I smashed my ipod 4th generation screen, it still works and i have my one year guarantee, will apple replace my screen for free?

I still have my guarantee, could i go to a apple store to replace the screen for free?

No, accidental damage is not covered by the warranty
Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one for $199 for 64 GB 4G and $99 for the other 4Gs. They do not fix yours.
Apple - iPod Repair price
The following will void the remainder of the warranty
A third-party place like the following maybe less. Google for more.

Itunes recognizes my ipod touch, but my computer still thinks it's a camera (and the drive only has pictures as a result; no music).

I recently bought a new laptop with Windows 7, and wanted to transfer my music from my old laptop onto it. Itunes on my new laptop would only let me transfer purchases, and not music that I got from CDs. So, seeing as I didn't have any sort of storage device handy to back up my old itunes library onto, I decided to just transfer my music straight from my ipod touch to my new laptop. I had done this many times before both for myself and for friends, so I was familiar with the process. What you do is you make sure that hidden files can be viewed, and you select "manually manage music..etc" in itunes so your device shows up as its own drive in My Computer. Then you click on that and you should find your music folders. Unfortunately, because my computer recognizes my iPod touch as a digital camera, the folders only had my pictures, and none of my music. I tried to update the driver and change it to usbaapl, the Apple Mobile Device USB driver. However, my device manager keeps saying: "The best driver software is already installed" or something like that. The driver Windows automatically installs is MTP USB device. I've tried uninstalling it but as soon as I plug my ipod back in it just re-installs the wrong driver again. So, is there any fix to this problem or will I just have to go invest in a flash drive to transfer my music?

Startng wth the iPhone and iPod Touch, Apple stopped supportng "disc mode" (and that's why your iPod Touch isn't "Aplle format" or "Windows format"). You access the musc, apps, calendars, etc. through iTunes, and you access the photos through the camera interface.
Windows is not "installing the wrong driver" you are just assuming that the device operates in a way that the newer devices no longer support. There are some 3rd party aps that will allow you to sync music from your iPod to your PC, but I have never used them so I can't tell you how well they work. I do seem to recall that XPlay2 was one of the names that supposedly supported doing that though...
