Macbook pro reboot white screen

I had my computer plugged in and left it for 6 hours.  My Macbook pro went to screen saver mode.  I came back, hit the space bar and the circle spun and spun so I hit the power button.  A minute later I reboot the computer.  The screen came on and nothing else.  I waited and waited.  Nothing!  When I barely touch the power button it turns off instantly.  I hit the power button again to turn it on and same thing.  Power light comes on very bright then dims and then blinks and goes out.  When I hold the power button for a long time I here the power up sound and then nothing.  What can I do?

  • 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.

  • My Macbook Pro Showing White Screen At startup

    Macbook pro showing white screen after loading window
    i think its not booting to hdd
    What shoud i do??
    Message was edited by: Krishnaraj7777

    Krishnaraj7777,
    you can try this: boot your MacBook Pro into Recovery mode by holding down a Command key and the R key as it starts up. Once the  OS X Utilities menu appears, select Disk Utility. On the left-hand side of the Disk Utility window, select your internal disk’s boot partition (typically called “Macintosh HD”). On the right-hand side, press the Verify Disk button if it’s not greyed out; if it is greyed out, or if it reports that errors were found, press the Repair Disk button. Once the verification/repair is completed, exit Disk Utility and select Restart from the Apple menu to restart in normal mode. Do you get past the white screen now?

  • When I turn on my macbook pro, the white screen displays a file with a question mark in the middle. What does this mean?

    Suddenly, my macbook pro has experienced problems. When I turn on my computer, the white screen displays a flashing file folder icon with a quesrion mark in the middle. Has my hard drive burnt out? Thank you in advance for any helpful suggestions..

    It means your computer is search for a start up volume.  You need to reboot into recovery mode and attempt to repair your disk.  To do this restart the computer and hold the keys:
    <command> + r
    Then open Disk utility.

  • MacBook pro crashes, white screen & lines on the screen

    Hello, dear forum users, i need your help very much!
    I am sorry for a long text, but i am trying to be detailed as much as possible.
    I have bought MacBook pro 15' late 2011 model. I am very happy using it. Everything was working perfectly. A month ago i have updated my mac with SDD drive(Samsung ssd 256gb) & corsair 16GB rams. Up to now it was working perfectly, i haven't had any problems. But yesterday after  i closed my mac(put it to the sleep mode) and after 10-15 minutes i opened it and there was just a black screen. No response to any of keys, mouse. After hard reset(holding power button. And turning it back on) i have received infinite white screen(i mean lightly gray). The one which follows after you turn on a mac. Waited a lot of time - nothing. Again hard reset.... again nothing. After some time i launched it successful. 5 minutes working - got completely blue screen. I thought it is because of software. When i restart mac, every second time, it  works (not getting into infinite light gray screen). I made a backup on external hdd. When I am successfully logged it, it works like perfect. But then(sometimes immediately after logging in, sometimes after 15-20 minutes of work, sometimes after 2 minutes.... randomly) screen just freezes - no response to any key or mouse. And after 5-10 sec mac automatically restarts.
    When i run mac in restore mode(cmd+r) it works good... I formatted sdd and installed completely fresh maverics software. Didn't helped. After 30minutes work screen again freezed and mac restarted after 5-10 sec. After restarting i have got "problem report for os x", and here is what it writes:
    Your computer was restarted because of a problem.

    There was also very weird behaviour of my mac, i have captures the video. I have uploaded it to the youtube, here is the link, please see it:
    http://youtu.be/ossDHVRl7DE     -on the video you can see slitted screen and white lines all along the screen.
    The thing is that i am now studying abroad, in Denmark, and any computer repair there is extremely expensive. And I dont have warranty anymore. Could you please help me and say how serious it is and what it might be? :/

    I thought these strips are caused by PCIe ,  second video card, but then I launched virtual machine (just to make computer switch to the second video adapter to see it something will change).  Now virtual machine is working in the background, Mac is working on the second video adapter -  nothing bad happens.(just as before)...  But then suddenly,  out of nowhere it ether gets freezed or strips appears on the screen(as on photo above)
    Video how it freezes
    http://youtu.be/uTrWuvphNQs
    I was just continue "working" with that and then happen this:( please see video attached)
    http://youtu.be/QM7oCRlzt9M it lasted for ~20 second and I was pressing some random keys on the keyboard...  And then it got back to normal..  :///

  • MacBook pro, blank white screen. Help!

    My MacBook pro all of a sudden takes a long time to boot up. When I turn it on It gets passed the apple logo and then the screen goes blank white where all I can do is move the mouse around. After a couple of minutes of hangin on this white screen, the coloured wheel spins for a while and eventually brings me to the login screen. I have gone through nearly the whole list of the step by step fix your Mac document such as resetting smc, pram etc. I even reinstalled the OS and the problem remains. The only thing I haven't done is to completely wipe the HDD, reinstall the OS as a new machine again. But this seems like a very extreme process to go through to fix this problem. Once I am logged in however, the machine works like normal everything loads fine and it's fast, it's just turning on the machine takes so long to get to the login screen. Any ideas of what I could try before erasing everything of my HDD?

    I'm thinking hardware issue. Run the Apple Hardware Test:

    Do othres sufffer from this? and as hardware must be OK is there a driver or software fix?
    Thanks.

    Hi I wanted to let you know that the hard drive is bad I am meeting with the apple manager tomorrow since my laptop is no longer under warranty but I had previously brought the laptop in for the same black screen when the warranty was good.. Have any pointers on how to approach them ?  I'm seriously disheartened by this especially since my 2006 white MacBook is running like a champ with no problems ever which is why I decided to buy another MacBook but one that was capable of running Lion

  • I dropped my macbook pro and the screen is broken can i still use it with an external monitor? Or can I or how do I transfer hard drive files to my mac mini?

    I dropped my 17" macbook pro and the screen is broken. Can I still use it with an external monitor? When I plugged it into a monitor I had used it with before, I'm not able to see anything on the macbook screen to control it. It came on but I just got the blue screen with nothing else after typing in my password. (Didn't see the password form just assumed it was there somewhere and it did go from space to blue screen but no desktop icons, files, dock strip at top or anything else, just blank blue screen) so I can't access the system preferences.
    Or can I / or how do I, transfer hard drive files to my mac mini? If not salvageable as is can I pull out the hard drive and make it an external harddrive? In otherwords is anything salvageable? It seems it's coming on I just can't access anything. BTW I was told it would cost aprox $1000 to replace the screen! I paid almost $4000 for this thing and it was running great - makes me sick to lose it!

    I'd like to promise you that everything will be fine if you just get the monitor going - but it's hard to know what the hardware damage might be. It might be the monitor, or the damage might be greater.
    Your best solution would be visit your local Apple Store and let them know what your situation is. They have access to diagnostics you don't, and they might be able to the best way to save your data and keep you computing. It's still not covered, but they can tell you what your current options are.
    Um, you might consider investing in a backup drive.
    And there other repair options, too. Powerbook Medic http://www.powerbookmedic.com/xcart1/pages.php?pageid=67 offers reliable repairs, and quotes prices well under Apple's.

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    If you have the cable, just connect it to both and the desktop will show up on the external display. Then, you can select different modes, changing arrangement in System Preferences > Displays > Arrangement, or using shortcuts > http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5019

  • Is it possible to connect my 2008 black macbook, to my new 2014 macbook pro retina display screen to make a dual monitor. If this is possible what cables would I need to buy?

    You can try using Screen Sharing in the Sharing preferences. Or try a third-party utility such as ScreenRecycler.

  • NEW Macbook Pro anti-glare screen choice

    Hi,
        I did not see the NEW Macbook Pro anti-glare screen choice.
          Did Apple Stop offering the anti-glare screen option on the NEW 2013 Laptops?
                      THANKS!!  - Randy

    If you look at the specifications for the 15" non-retina MBPs, you will note that anti-glare option is available.
    Ciao.

  • MacBook Pro and Samsung screen compatibility

    Hi there
    I have a 13" MacBook Pro 7,1, screen resolution 1280 x 800.  I also have a Sony HDVD camera [HDR-SR11E].
    I am thinking of buying a Samsung monitor for ease of video and picture editing -- SAMSUNG 2333HD, which has a 23-inch widescreen display; 16:9 Aspect Ratio; 1920 x 1080 Resolution; 300 cd/m2 Brightness.
    Apparently it has "two HDMi sockets, a DVI input and a VGA entry"
    Is the aspect ratio of the Samsung compatible with my Mac and do I have to purchase any extra peripherals to make these pieces of equipment work together?
    Thanks for any clear, simple help anyone can give

    There are two different models.

  • My macbook pro shows blank screen when I started..help me..

    My macbook pro shows blank screen when I started . (It's like in same state when power off. ) fan sound and hard disk is running. So i connected it Through external monitor via mini display to VGA cable. I can see everything on external monitor. My display of Mac needs to change? How much it cost ?? I found so many forum discussion said that if nvedia card is faulty then its happen...let me know suggestions...I given it to apple care service station n they r telling yr display needs to change its cost me a lot.. I can't afford. And can't spend that much for 3 yr old version as new versions of macbook pro is cost vice reasonable.. can I have any suggestion?

    If running 10.7 or later hold down Command-R at Startup.
    This should invoke recovery Mode.
    Choose Disk Utility.
    Select your Hard drive. Inspect the SMART Status in the lower right of the window for "Verified".
    Select the Mac OS X Volume (originally Macintosh HD) click (Repair Disk)
    If errors, run again until it comes clean or gets stuck.
    Report any error messages.

  • I1 DISPLAY PRO and DISPLAY MACBOOK PRO 15 " GLOSSY SCREEN

    "Ciao" to all.
    I recently  i bought a macbook pro 15 "glossy screen. Would like to try to calibrate the monitor with a i1 DISPLAY PRO produced by X-Rite. Some of you have already tried? with what result?
    Many thanks for the responses.

    I talked to AppleCare; they referred me to Customer Service to arrange a return of the MBP and shipment of a new replacement. They said since it was a defect out of the box not to repair it, just go for a replacement.
    Sounds good in the long run, but being without it for a few days will be painful!
