  • Ipod has white screen and will not respond

    IPOD touch has a white screen and is froze.  Will not connect to computer to start factory settings.  How do I fix this?

    Hey Woolley13!
    I have an article for you here that can help provide you with some further troubleshooting steps for this issue:
    iPhone: Hardware troubleshooting

    Display shows a white screen
    Try turning iPhone off and then on again.
    If the iPhone will not turn off, try to reset it.
    If that doesn't work, try restoring the device.
    Take care, and thanks for visiting the Apple Support Communities.

  • 5th Gen iPOD has white screen and beeps when center and menu button is held

    My ipod was perfectly fine until I downloaded iPod Updater 2006-01-10...now, my ipod has a white screen, won't turn off (white screen stays on) and when I hold the center and menu button down, it does a 3 syllable beep. I've done the switching the hold button back and forth; resetting my ipod; restarting my PC; un-installing and re-installing both the itunes software and the ipod updater and still no working ipod. I am atleast trying to restore it to factory settings, but, I get an error message on the iPod updater screen. Can anyone help? Thanks!

    everybody listen to babara hall, genius, it takes a while but reset it one more time using menu and selct and while its off for a few seconds push selct and play/pause, hold it for a long while, then let go and you'll see the apple logo and everything will go back to the way it was before.
    p.s. thank you so much, ipods working great now, glad someone knows what there doing instead of apple,lol

    Try what you have not tried so far. You may have tried all and the Apple store maybe in order.
    - 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 iPod fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - If still not successful that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • My ipod nano 6th gen has white screen

    please help my ipod nano 6th gen has white screen and wont go away, ive put into disk mode (dfu) and restored on itunes and still no resolution....ive tried hard reseting and still nothing

    It might also be a good idea to let the iPod's battery fully drain. Then charge it back up and restore it once more in iTunes.
    Otherwise, it's likely a hardware issue with the iPod's LCD display, meaning you'll need to take or send your iPod in for service either via Apple or a third party repair service. Here is Apple's repair pricing.
    http://www.apple.com/support/ipod/service/prices/
    Note that they don't actually repair the device, but exchange it for one of the same generation, model, and capacity.  A third party service will actually replace the damaged part for a little less.  Google "iPod screen repair" and you should get a number of results to work with.

  • My macbook pro has white screen with flashing folder.

    my macbook pro has white screen with flashing folder.
    i called the repair services and they say its hard disk problem
    so i would like to ask everyone here if the problem would be solved if i just changed the original hard disk to a ssd myself or do i realy need to let them repair for me.
    ps : i dont have warranty

    See A flashing question mark appears when you start your Mac. I would suggest you try reinstalling OS X.
    If you are running Snow Leopard:
    Reinstall OS X without erasing the drive
    1. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions
    Boot from your Snow Leopard Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list.  In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive.  If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer.
    If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior and/or Tech Tool Pro to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.
    2. Reinstall Snow Leopard
    If the drive is OK then quit DU and return to the installer.  Proceed with reinstalling OS X.  Note that the Snow Leopard installer will not erase your drive or disturb your files.  After installing a fresh copy of OS X the installer will move your Home folder, third-party applications, support items, and network preferences into the newly installed system.
    Download and install Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1.
    If you are running Lion or Mountain Lion:
    Reinstalling Lion/Mountain Lion Without Erasing the Drive
    Boot to the Recovery HD: Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
    Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions: Upon startup select Disk Utility from the main menu. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions as follows.
    When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list.  In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive.  If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the main menu.
    Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion: Select Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion and click on the Continue button.
    Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.

  • Power Mac G5 on start up it repetedly has white screen with circling icon then just switches off

    Power Mac G5... Pleas Help!!! i'm not sure if my hard drive is broken but on start up it repetedly has white screen with the circling (doing somthing) icon then just switches off. If i press alt when switching on i get a grey screen with 3 icons, 1st is like a refresh arrow button & last is a straight arrow button on pressing either of these mac just starts the white screen thing again, the middle icon is a picture of a hard drive with a blue cross in the corner & written under neath it says macintosh HD. Does this mean my hard drive has gone?

    Been there, done that.  Try a Safe Boot (holding down the shift key at boot) and see if it boots.  If it boots, then you may be having problems with either the power supply or the video card.  What video card is in the machine?
    If it does a safe boot OK, then we can troubleshoot using a verbose boot.  Verbose boot puts up a Unix Console screen and displays text output during the boot process.  When I had these symptoms, verbose boot showed me that the power supply was clicking off right after the kext to drive the GeForce 6800 card loaded.  I replaced the power supply and the problem went away.
    To initiate a verbose boot, hold down the  cmd-V combination until you see the console screen come up.  Watch the output and pay attention, because you need to remember what is being said when the machine shuts down.  You may need to repeat this two or three times.
    As an aside, often times power supplies exhibit this behavior when they have become choked with dust.  This is pretty universal after five or six years, requiring that the power supply be removed and the dust blown out with clean shop air.

  • Intel OS X 10.7 iMac has white screen and three-alarm sound, won't start up

    Intel OS X 10.7 iMac has white screen and three-alarm sound, won't start up

    The 3 beeps during start-up are telling you that the RAM is bad.
    If you can access the RAM modules, you may try taking them out and putting them back in, perhaps it's only bad contacts.
    If that doesn't help, you'll need new RAM module(s).

  • 6th gen ipod nano has white screen and won't go into disc mode

    My ipod nano has a white screen - it will play music, and it is recognized by itunes. It won't enter disc mode. I can't seem to find any other helpful steps to follow online other than put it into disc mode and restore it via itunes. When I attempt to put it into disc mode holding power/Vol down together the screen will turn back, but when I then hold down Vol down/Vol up together while the screen is dark it just goes back to white screen. I did plug it into the computer and restore it via itunes, and the screen is still white.  Any ideas?  Thanks!

    Hi LizS5,
    It sounds as if you have already done much of the troubleshooting suggested in this article, but I would suggest you work through it in order to get your iPod nano back up and running -
    iPod nano (6th generation): Hardware troubleshooting
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3474
    Specifically -
    Try putting the iPod into disk mode:
    Reset the device (press the Sleep and Volume Down buttons simultaneously until the display turns black—about eight seconds).
    When the display turns black, hold down the Volume Down and Volume Up buttons simultaneously until the device enters Disk mode.
    While the device is in disk mode, sync it to iTunes and try to restore.
    And if the issue is not resolved -
    My issue is still not resolved. What do I do next?
    For information on servicing your iPod, go to the iPod Service FAQ
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    Best,
