Uploading update software, now the screen is white on mac computer

I downloaded Mac OS X Snow Leopard on my desktop and computer restarted correctly. It then prompted me to update the printer software. There was an error. I continued and computer restarted and now the screen is white withe Apple emblem and circle continuously runs below. I have tried restarting the computer but this is the only screen that comes up. Please help!

Hold the shift key and reboot, that should get you in, uninstall the software.
Run Software update under the Apple Menu, reinstal the software and make sure it's 10.6.8 compatible, then reboot normally to test or repeat with shift key booting.

My Mac book pro has the end of a earphone stuck to it. After this I updated to maverick, and this massively slowed down my computer.Now my laptop is switching on and logging in just fine, but after logging in the screen goes white. What can the reason be?

At first my laptop was fine after the earphone end got stuck in. Soon it started getting slower, and suddenly it stopped switching on. The people in the service station said that it wAs because the hard disk drive was corrupted. I came back home, and immediately it stopped working again. This time they said it was because of water spill. They changed the entire key board and then it started working for a while. Later I updated to maverick and that slowed down my computer. Once, I switched on my laptop, logged in, and then the screen went white. When we took it to the service center they said they will need to replace the hard disk. I am not sure what I should do. Any suggestions?

Liquid damage from water spill is progressive, unfortunately.
Best.

My sister's iPod touch got water in it. Now the screen is white and won't turn on. It looks like there's water in the front camera and in the screen.

My sister's iPod Touch got water in it. The screen is white and it won't turn off. There's water in the camera and it looks like there's actually droplets in the screen. I tried plugging it into the computer but iTunes wouldn't respond to it. My sister tried putting the iPod in rice (some remedy she heard of) but that just made it worse...

Do not turn on or charge until dry. Dry by placing the iPod in a sealed container of uncooked rice for at least as week and change the rice daily. Then
- Try:
iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- If not successful and you can't turn the iPod fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for at least an hour try the article again.
- If still problem that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.
It "got worse" since it takes some time for the water to have an effect. The iPod may or may not work after it is dry.

I accidentally restarted my i pod during an update and now the screen goes white what can i do to fix it ?

I dropped my ipod in the pool and put it in rice for three days and now the screen stays white. what is the cheapest way to fix my ipod?

i dropped my ipod in the pool and put it in rice for three days and the screen just stays white now. what is the cheapest way to fix thiss?

There are companies that specialize in data retrieval but it's costly (probably cheaper to buy a new iPod) and more than likely as Allan said, your circuits are probably damaged beyond all hope of retrieving anything. It's worth calling Apple you maybe able to get a discount or a refurbished iPod. Can't hurt to ask, Good luck. (And in the future... no texting in the john.) Sorry, couldn't resist it.

I dropped my ipod 2nd Generation, and now the screen turned white there're many cracks in the screen. But im pretty sure the touchscreen still works. Is there any way my screen can work again? so that it isn't white? pls help

Please help

I'm in no way an iPod technician - but I have the same model as you. If you have cracks in the screen, I'm pretty sure you need to get the screen replaced. You can see what's involved by looking here:
http://www.rapidrepair.com/Merchant2/merchant.mvc?Screen=cp-ipodtouch2g
Unless you're already an electronic technician, you'd be better off having it repaired.
Having said that, you might compare the repair price with what a newer iPod Touch would cost you. Here's just one sample page with pricing:
http://www.amazon.com/iPod-Computers/b?ie=UTF8&node=13660271
If you buy a used one, it might be just a little more than the repair cost.
(.....strange - I just came here to the forum to ask a questioin about my own iPod 2nd gen device, which I might be replacing with a newer one....)

I accidently interrupted my iPod while it was downloading iOS6 now the screen is white... what do I do?

Everytime I try to reset my Ipod touch the screen either turns blue or white...what should I do?

try to do this put in Restore mode press sleep + home for 15 secs and plug on your pc or mac and this must load itunes and then itunes must launch a message that the "ipod is in restore mode " you press restore button
I hope that helps!

Trying to load 4Loot. I get an arrow pointing to the bar at the top of the screen...but there's nothing there to click on, like with Google Chrome.

I had to remove 4Loot because of an issue. When I try to reload it now I can't. The program points to the bar at the top of the browser, but unlike Google Chrome where there's a tier of three bars to click on and load 4Loot search engine...there's nothing on Firefox. Need help.

A Google search indicates that 4Loot is questionable software, so you may want to reconsider reinstalling it.

If this is a search engine then it should be in the searchplugins folder in the Firefox profile folder or installed as an extension.
You can use this button to go to the Firefox profile folder:

Hi DaVince Vince,
I'm sorry to hear that you are having issues with your iPhone. I also apologize, I'm a bit unclear what issues you were having that led up to the attempted Erase All, and/or exactly what behavior you are seeing now (restarting, not responding at all, etc). If you are seeing an Apple Logo screen and your iPhone does not appear to be starting correctly, you may find the following articles helpful:
If your iOS device restarts, displays the Apple logo, or powers off while you're using it - Apple Support
If your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch doesn't respond or doesn't turn on - Apple Support

Why is the ipad mini screen so delicate I just got my ipad mini yesterday and it fell of a stand I bought and now the screen is cracked

why is the ipad mini screen so delicate I just got my ipad mini yesterday and it fell of a stand I bought and now the screen is cracked

My Ipad 3 is the same, it must be a design fault cuz I dropped a pound coin on my ipad screen and it shattered and every other week there's a new dent or scratch, though I wouldn't say I'm overly rough with it. I use it a lot, like most do, so accidents will happen and Apple hav to allow for that. I deffently wouldn't say that they are worth the money for the amount of trouble they cause, they r great devices, just far too delicate and expensive!

I have an Ipod Touch and i have had it for about 3 years now, the screen has smashed just now and i was wondering if anyone knew how much it will be to replace the screen? I cant afford to buy a new ipod so I just want to replace the screen?

If your iPod Touch, iPhone, or iPad is Broken
Apple does not fix iDevices. Instead, they exchange yours for a refurbished or new replacement depending upon the age of your device and refurbished inventories. On rare occasions when there are no longer refurbished units for your older model, they may replace it with the next newer model.
ATTN: Beginning July 2013 Apple Stores are now equipped to do screen repairs/replacements in-house on iPhone 5s. In some cases while you wait. According to Apple this is the beginning of equipping Apple Stores with the resources needed to do most repairs for iPhones, iPads, and iPod Touches that would not require major replacements. Later in the year the services may be extended as Apple Stores become equipped and staffed with the proper repair expertise. So, if you need a screen repaired or a broken screen replaced or have your stuck Home button fixed, call your local Apple Store to see if they are now doing these in-house.
You may take your device to an Apple retailer for help or you may call Customer Service and arrange to send your device to Apple:
Apple Store Customer Service at 1-800-676-2775 or visit online Help for more information.
To contact product and tech support: Contacting Apple for support and service - this includes international calling numbers.
iPod Service Support and Costs
iPhone Service Support and Costs
iPad Service Support and Costs
There are third-party firms that do repairs on iDevices, and there are places where you can order parts to DIY if you feel up to the task:
1. iResq or Google for others.
2. Buy and replace screen yourself: iFixit
