My computer turns out but wont go past load

My computer died the other day and when I got home to plug it in, it would turn out but would stay on the gray screen with the apple logo in the midle with the loading symbol at the botton. I've left it on his screen for a half an hour hoping it would load but it hasn't. What do I ned to do?

Try connecting the iPod to your iTunes library in Disk Mode and restoring it to factory settings.

- Try a reset.
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Then connect to your computer and try to restore.
- See if placing the iPod in recovery mode will allow a restore. For recovery mode see:
iPhone and iPod touch: Unable to update or restore
- If the logo still show all the time, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an hour try the above again.

TS1367 My charger connects with my macbook with a very faint green light (not the normal orange light) and can maintain the computer turned on but does not charge the battery.

My charger connects with my computer with a very faint green light (not the normal orange light) and can maintain the computer turned on but does not charge the battery. The power source to keep it on is the power adapter and that it's "Not charging" on the battery settings. And my charger seems to charge other computers fine.
The part of my mac where the adapter (L-shaped, magnetic) attaches is a bit damaged - a small piece of the white case/body around the part where the adapter attaches is broken off, but that's just an outer damage.
I don't know what's wrong with my computer, and if anyone has had a similar experience or knows what's going on, it'd be tremendously helpful!
Thank you!!

Hi Christopher,
Doubtful an upgrade would fix a hardware issue. If you are thinking of upgarding to Lion, best to do all necessary maintenance first.
Try Resetting the System Management Controller (SMC)

Mac OS X: Gray screen appears during startup

My computer turns on, but the screen is blank. The backlight turns on, but the screen is still black. HELP!

My computer turns on and the light at the botton is on, but the screen is blank. I have tried pressing every button, turning it on/off, and also pressing the mouspad.

I have the same problem, the start up sound plays through the speakers but nothing on the screen

Water Damage...Turns on but wont stay on

My ipod was in my pants pocket and we got a flash flood and it got wet only for maybe 15seconds. I let it dry out for 2/3days and then hooked it up to the apple wall charger for at least 24 hrs, where the black background came up with the apple sigal then would turn on but as soon as I unplugged it, it would shut down. Do i need to restore/reformat it to fix it? Doesnt make sense that it will turn on for the charge then shut down right after. Pleaseeee Helpppp!

If it is showing up in iTunes I would definitely try Restoring it and then letting it charge (on the wall charger) for 5 hours. If it still does not work on battery then it is time to replace the battery.

Computer turns on but nothing appears on the screen

Hi,
I have had this desktop computer for about 2 years. I usually use it almost daily and turn it off at the end of the day. Every few months or so the computer would turn on but nothing would appear on the screen. I would have to hold the power button to turn it off then turn in on a couple times or wait until the next day and the computer would turn on and everything would appear on the screen and work perfectly. Last week, the computer once again turned on but nothing appeared on the screen, except this time, after a week, the computer will now turn on except there is still nothing appearing on the screen. I no longer hear the fans running, however, I hear everything else running as normal. I have unplugged and re-plugged in all the cords multiple times and still, nothing.
Please help! Thank you.

Hp Pavillion Elite m9040n-Computer turns on but nothing happens

I have an old Hp Pavillion Elite m9040n that runs Windows Vista home 64bit.
I'll try to recall what happened. I always had trouble with the computer running slow, but earlier this year I had some trouble with malware that started causing the computer to crash. I cleared the malware out and because I was still having problems with windows running slow I removed windows vista and installed an older version of Ubuntu(which was also acting funny as far as freezing up and refusing to run programs. One day I got another blue screen of death and it would do it every time I restarted the computer. Now when I start up the computer, the monitor immediately goes to sleep and the computer makes no noise except for the fans running.
Sorry if this isn't enough info, I'm in a rush right now. I'll answer any other questions about the problem if necessary.

Hi , Have you tried to reseat the RAM ( memory ) in your computer ? Let me know if you know how to do this if not i can talk you through it . If a memory module has failed it will stop the computer from starting . Could also be a failed power supply but checking the RAM first is the best way forward. Checkurtech

IMac computer turns on but screen is dark with lit curser

My Mac turns on but I have a dark screen with alit curser. Any ideas?

My computer turns on but its remains with a gray screen that has the apple icon

My daughter was using our computer to download some music from Itunes onto her psp. She said the computer froze and she forced it to restart. The computer turns on the apple icon shows up and a load bar under that shows up then dissapears and it remains with a gray screen. I have tried several times time to restart it and it does the same thing. Can anyone help?

Have you had the chance to look over and begin using the Gray screen appears during startup or the Gray progress bar appears under Apple logo during startup articles?

My computer turns on but then immediately shuts down.

It seems my computer turned itself off in the middle of the night. This morning, when I tried turning it on, it wouldn't leave the white initial screen with the apple logo and the waiting sign so I manually shut it down. I waited a couple of minutes before doing so. Then I turned it back on again and the same thing happened. The third time I turned it on, the white screen appeared and then it shut down on its own! Next time I did the same thing and it took less time before shutting down on its own.
My computer is connected to the energy source. It's not connected directly to the wall, there is a no-break with a very weak battery and that's connected to the power source.
My concern is that there was very little memory left on my computer and I was downloading more movies.
It the problem coming from my computer or is it the energy source?

Try connecting the plug directly to an outlet. That should determine whether it is the energy source or not.
If the same, try booting into the Safe Mode using your normal account. Disconnect all peripherals except those needed for the test. Shut down the computer and then power it back up after waiting 10 seconds. Immediately after hearing the startup chime, hold down the shift key and continue to hold it until the gray Apple icon and a progress bar appear. The boot up is significantly slower than normal. This will reset some caches, forces a directory check, and disables all startup and login items, among other things. When you reboot normally, the initial reboot may be slower than normal. If the system operates normally, there may be 3rd party applications which are causing a problem. Try deleting/disabling the third party applications after a restart by using the application un-installer. For each disable/delete, you will need to restart if you don't do them all at once.

Computer Turns on But doesn't get past Apple Logo and Spinning Dial

Hi everyone!
I totally stuck!
When I turn on my MacBook the normal chime sounds, the apple logo pops up, and the dial that constantly spins appears. But it never gets past that initial screen. I've tried letting it sit off for a few hours, taking out the battery, and trying to turn it on with the Power Adapter plugged in. I love my Mac and I'm very surprised by this.
If anyone knows how to fix this I would greatly appreciate it!

Welcome To  Discussions HSHS07!
To begin, run Repair Disk, and post the results.
THESE ARE THE STEPS FOR USING DISK UTILITY TO REPAIR YOUR HD
1.Insert the System Install disk, Mac OS X CD-ROM disk, or Restore DVD disk, then restart the computer while holding the C key. Use the System disk, of the OS, that is currently installed.
2.Once started up from CD or DVD, on the Menubar at the top of the screen, choose Utilities from the Installer contextual menu.
Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from disc to access Disk Utility.
3.Click the First Aid tab.
4.Click the disclosure triangle to the left of the hard drive icon to display the names of your hard disk volumes and partitions.
5.Select your Mac OS X volume, if necessary.
6.Click Repair. If DU reports errors it has fixed, re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported.
7.Repeat steps 5 & 6, but select the Hard Drive this time. It's usually the first listed with the manufacturer's model number. Make note of the S.M.A.R.T. status.
8.When finished, select Quit Disk Utility from the Installer menu.
9.Select Quit Installer from the Installer menu.
10.In the resulting pop-up window, choose restart.
11.After the computer has restarted, you can eject the CD.

My daughters IPod touch fell in shallow pond,grabbed out after a few seconds..now it turns on but wont work correctly. Any suggestions?

can an IPOD touch be salvaged or just bring to Apple store.

Before you take it to an Apple Store, try to put it into a sealed bag of rice for a couple of days, to take out the moisture. This has worked for some people. The other option would be getting it replaced by Apple, but that's not covered by the warranty. See the pricing for the out-of-warranty exchange here: http://www.apple.com/support/ipod/service/prices/#us and http://www.apple.com/support/ipod/service/faq/#warranty6
