Macbook wake up - Faded screen and timeline/something's loading.

Recently, I've been having problems waking my macbook. When it does wake, the screen is where it used to be, but the display is faded and there's a timeline at the bottom of the screen like something is being loaded. Then it wakes like normal.

that means your macbook entered a safe sleep or "hibernation" mode while sleeping, that generally occurs when the battery dies while its asleep but can occur at other times as well

MacBook Pro Retina Black Screens and Becomes Unresponsive

I've been having issues with my laptop where all of a sudden it would black screen and become unresponsive. Checking the console messages I see a lot of records referring to "AppleVTD: waiting space". This seems to be a reoccuring problem. I've already repaired my disk once and now it's happening again, I've ran the disk utility and it is telling me that my hard drive needs repairs again.
Here is an extract from the console messages from today:

I got about a hundred lines within that same error within that second
Witin the next 2 minutes I was able to reboot and it is running, for now. I'll be doing another round of disk repair, but this isn't sustainable. Can anybody elp me in identifying the root cause of these issues?
Thanks in advance,

and then my entire system freezes. This has been happening at least once daily, and it's killing my productivity.
Have you figured out what was going on?
And, are you running any virtualization software, like Parallels?
Anyone out there know what's going on? I'm pretty desperate here...
Thanks so much!

My 2012, 17" macbook pro starts, gray screen and shuts down.

Anybody knows why my 2012, 17" macbook pro is starting with gray screen and mac logo and shuts down after?
I have Mavrick on. Last night i tried to use itunes and got an error for the first time. It said " itunes was corrupted or not installed correctly" . There is no reason because i listened to music just day before. After working on some docs i shut down the laptop. This morning when i tried to start up it didnt happened. Tried all shortcuts to do recorvery. It said " mac HD and Recorvery HD" both are blocked and not accessible.
Ran another doagnoses, checked hard drive and got errors.
I cant see why hard drive might be damaged.
Plz help me out. I didnt do any backup and dont ant to reformat it.
Thanks
-Soleil

Well, i tried different things. First tried Recorvery start. It showed mac HD and Recovery HD but i couldnt choose any, said it was locked.
When i diagnosed the hard drive, dont remember exactly but it ran the HD test and on red showed Hard Drive damaged.
Tonight after putting this questions here i tried again Online Help option, i could see all my folders, files, applications but couldnt open any. It was using Safari.
Not sure whats going on. All started with getting slow and i didnt turn the laptop off "was on sleep" for few days till last night.
Like i said before, last night i couldnt start iTunes, but didnt pay attention to it and shut off laptop. Only if i knew it wont start up again.. :-(

My late 2006 Black MacBook has a gray screen and won't boot.

My late 2006 Black MacBook has a gray screen, folder icon, and flashing question mark. I replaced the HD with a Western Digital 500 GB and had no change. What's wrong with my MacBook?

That folder with the question mark icon means that the MacBook can't find the boot directory. That can either mean it can't find the hard drive or the hard drive Operating System data is somehow corrupted.
Put your install DVD into the optical drive and reboot. As soon as you hear the boot chime, hold down the "c" key on your keyboard (or the Option key until the Install Disk shows up). That will force your MacBook to boot from the install DVD in the optical drive.
Once it has finished booting and you Choose Your Language and you are at the Install screen launch Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. Is your Hard Drive in the list on the left?
If it is then select the First Aid Tab run Repair Disk and if that repairs any problems run it again until the green OK appears and then run Repair Permissions.
If your hard drive isn’t recognized in Disk Utility then your hard drive is probably dead.

Macbook pro continuously black screening and rebooting-any solutions?

Ever since upgrading OS to Mountain Lion there have been numerous times when waking the Macbook, it goes to black screen and reboots. Several times it has rebooted then immediately shut down and rebooted again. I am also running Paralles 9 which I needed to install after upgrading to the OS 6 operating system. Has anyone else had this problem and is there an easy fix?

You might try this:
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 has blank white screen and beeps an alarm- what is happening?

Macbook crashed to white screen with beeping alarm (repeats 3 beeps at a time)- what is happening?

Usually signals memory problem.

Black screen and phone doesn't load.

My phone was just replaced due to the phones inability to fully load past the black screen. Occasionally it will try to pull up the home screen for approximately a second. Now the replacement phone is doing this as well. How do I fix this error and avoid it in the future?

I have tried a reset and restoring. Restoring worked fine until today again. I have had to restore 3 times now. I have noticed that the phone seems to be stuck in a loop that goes between a long look the black screen and a quick look at my home screen when it tries to wirelessly sync. That is the one commonality I have caught today.

Macbook Pro gets blue screen and resets itself?

I have a 15in Macbook Pro, year 2008. I have Snow Leopard on it.
I bought it refurbished online about two months ago however a few times it has done something none of my other Macs have done and I'm getting concerned. I will have it in sleep mode and when I try to wake it it is frozen. Next thing it does it go to a blue screen then it resets Safari and I have to open a new window and tabs.
What is going on? I had two Powerbook G4's and neither ever did this. I would like to know so I can contact where i bought it since it is under warranty still.
Thanks

Thanks!
Do you have a link? I did a search on APPLE and couldn't find it. I could be searching incorrectly but I put "install disc" in the search engine.
It has been doing it more often and the place where I got said we didn't have the warranty so they won't help. My fiancee got this for me and I was on the phone telling him what to click and he added the warranty but it doesn't show on my purchase order so they won't help. To be honest I don't really want to send it to CA for repairs, I'd rather go thru Apple to get it fixed or looked at. IDK what happened with our order because I know he put in for the warranty and a RAM upgrade (which I still want as well as an HD upgrade) that isn't on here either which I just found out a few days ago when I looked at what the RAM was for school. It's not that big of a deal things happen when ordering online and I dont mind buying the discs if I knew where to get them.
My concern is being the motherboard and if that is what the issue is. That term alone sends chills down my spine, I dont have the best luck with them! The only error message I get sometimes is a CPU error and I haven't a clue what that means. I did pay for a 24hr diagnostic on it before we got it, can things or issues show up later on? I don't do anything crazy online like DL. I only stream Netflix and that is about it.
So Im just at a loss as to why this screen is coming up and why it resets my browser and goes to the desktop screen where I have to reopen all windows and tabs.
Anyway, thanks for your reply. I will try to look more for the discs but if you have a link that would help.

Older macbook pro with broken screen and secondary monitor

So I have an old 2007 macbook pro that was upgraded to mountain lion (I don't remember what version of it though). The screen broke and I'm trying to hook it up to my tv to use it as a screen as a quick fix for now. Of course, it's opening on the second desktop but I need it to open to my normal desktop without being able to see my main screen. Is that possible, and if so, how? Ps. The disc drive doesn't work either so that can't be used.

If you intend to install Leopard, I suppose you have an old MBP, right?
On mine (2007 Core2duo alu, grey keyboard), I can use F7 key to switch display when using an external screen. Does it help?
I'd advise you not to use an external drive, but install your external drive (provided it's 2.5") in your MBP.

Faded screen and white bars when waking from sleep on mac mini

I just bought a new mac mini. It is the late 2012 version with Mavericks.
When I wake it from sleep, my screen is blurred out and there is a row of little white bars at the bottom for probably 10 seconds before the full screen comes on.
Why is it doing this? Is that normal?
Thanks

Late-model Macs are configured to enter standby after four hours in sleep while on AC power, in order to comply with a directive of the European Union.
You have three choices. One is to do nothing. Use the machine as designed. That's what I recommend.
The second choice is to disable Power Nap in the Energy Saver pane of System Preferences. Uncheck the box marked Enable Power Nap... in each of the tabs. You won't get the wake delay anymore, but you won't get any of the features of Power Nap either.
The third choice is to increase the delay before standby mode is triggered, or to disable standby mode completely. This is an unsupported option and you're on your own as to the consequences. If you choose to go this route, proceed as below. These instructions are for advanced users only.
Back up all data before making any changes.
These instructions must be carried out as an administrator. If you have only one user account, you are the administrator.
Drag across the line below to select it, then copy it to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C:
sudo pmset –a standbydelay
Don't copy the blank space at the end of the line.
Launch the Terminal application.
Paste into the Terminal window by pressing command-V. Press the space bar, then type the delay you want, in seconds. For example, if you want to change the standby delay from the default one hour to eight hours, enter 28800. Don't put commas or other punctuation marks in the number. To disable standby, enter 0 (zero.)
When the command is complete, press return. You'll be prompted for your login password. Nothing will be displayed when you type it. Type carefully and then press return. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you don’t have a login password, you’ll need to set one before you can run the command. After running it, quit Terminal. If you see a message that your username "is not in the sudoers file," then you're not logged in as an administrator.
To disable standby on AC power, enter this command:
sudo pmset autopoweroff 0
and to revert to the default state,
sudo pmset autopoweroff 1

Macbook shutdown / freeze black screen and sound loop

Hello !
For a few months now my macbook pro 2010 shuts down automatically after some times of working (sometime 2 minutes ... sometimes 2 hours !)
Black screen

My macbook seems to freeze ... the only solution is to shutdown by pressing a loing time the shutdown button.
My battery is brand new and the harddrive is ok (bought less than 1 year ago).
Here is the report I've automatically got when I relaunch.
Can someone explain me what the **** is happening ?
Thanks a lot !

Mid-2010 15" MacBook Pros - the bad NVIDIA GPU
If you're having frequent kernel panics with your 15" mid-2010, or intermittent screen problems, the problem is, more than likely, the faulty NVIDIA GPU found in a number of those machines.
Here's just a sample of a kernel panic log that points to the faulty NVIDIA card:
Kernel Extensions in backtrace (with dependencies):
         com.apple.GeForce(6.4.0)@0x82ac4000->0x82b7afff
            dependency: com.apple.NVDAResman(6.4.0)@0x834a0000

            dependency: com.apple.iokit.IOGraphicsFamily(2.2.1)@0x8301b000
Here's the "official" Apple take on the issue - but the very real kernel panics need not be preceded by 'Intermittent black screen or loss of video'... in fact, you might not experience any video problems at all. Although video problems can certainly be a portent of things to come…
So what can you do? Print out a copy of your kernel panic and a copy of the Knowledge Base article and take them, along with your machine, to your local Apple Store or an Apple Authorized Service Provider. The unfortunate thing is that many people have passed the “three years from date of purchase” now and Apple is not honoring the free logic board replacement for many users. Some dealers seem to be making some exceptions for those past the three year mark, but don’t count on it…
Good luck,

Macbook stuck on blue screen and cant turn it off even by holding the power button.

Bought a refurbished macbook and it arrived today. was enjoying it for a while then i decided to reboot to get the new OS. I came back to it a minute later and there was a blue screen with the loader on it. Its been in this state for hours now and i cant reboot by holding the power button so i have no idea how to actually do anything. At the moment im leaving it running in its current state hoping it will all be sorted once the battery has run out. ANY help appreciated as i cant find anything whatsoever in forums that has any relation to my problem!!!

More details bud... WHAT MBP version do you have? What movie player are you using....? Is it a AVI MP4 MKV? IS it a DVD???

Whenever I try to select a file for anything, Upload or moving it etc my macbook freezes on that screen and the colorful ball starts spinning. Then I am forced to close a random application in order for it to go away.

I try to upload a file to iCloud or trying to upload a file to facebook it just freezes. I bought this macbook pro two days ago brand new from best buy and updated to maverick 10.9.1. Does anyone know why this is happening?

MacBook keeps rebooting, grey screen and unable to get a log in screen

Have no idea what has happened! Looking through mail yesterday, nothing else. When I went to log in last night it started rebooting and then shut itself off. Every time I try to turn it back it on it has grey screen, apple icon and begins to reboot itself and then simply turns itself off again. Cannot even get to log in screen. Any advice on how to get my log in screen back and stop this process?
