  • My ipod nano 4th generation only works when it is plugged into the computer; otherwise, the screen turns black and it is completely unresponsive to any efforts such as pushing buttons, reseting, etc. What should I do?

    Sounds like the battery is shot and in need of a replacement.  You can have Apple replace the battery for a flat fee or you can send it into a third party repair center for a bit less.
    Not much else you can do for troubleshooting this one.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Try the following steps, check whether things are working after each step where appropriate, before trying the next.
    Check AirPlay is turned on on the Apple TV (turn it off and on if it already is)
    Check that both devices are on the same network (Settings > Wifi, on the mobile device and Settings > General > Network, on the Apple TV).
    Restart the Apple TV (Settings > General > Restart).
    Restart the Apple TV by removing ALL the cables for 30 seconds.
    Restart your router. (Also try removing it’s power cord for at least 30 seconds)
    Restart your mobile device.

  • On start up my screen is black and the computer beeps 3 times

    Last time I used my MacBook air the screen went black and the computer shutdown on it's own. On start up the screen remains black and the computer beeps three times intermittently. Does anyone know how I can fix the problem? Thanks in advance.

    my iMac won't boot up. I hear the chime and the Apple symbol appears but there is no whirling indicator that appears and after a while the computer screen goes black and the whole cycle starts again. There have been occasions when it has actually started and I have the dashboard appear but then the screen freezes 

    Since you have Lion v10.7.4 installed, use Lion Recovery to repair the startup disk if necessary, or reinstall the Mac OS X.

  • When on a phone call when I need to enter numbers on the keypad, the screen goes black and the device doesn't register the numbers.  Sometimes it works, but most times not...very frustrating.  Any recommendations?

    When on a phone call when I need to enter numbers on the keypad, the screen goes black and the device doesn't register the numbers.  Sometimes it works, but most times not...very frustrating.  Any recommendations?

    Is there a case or screen protector that is possibly interfering with the proximity sensor (detects if the phone is near your face, allows the keypad/screen to be visible when the phone is away from your face)

  • Iphone 4 makes calls but screen is black and the power button doesnt work. never synced to computer or photo stream. I dont want to lose my photos

    So, my Iphone 4 now has a black screen. Before it did this I unlocked the screen (which has a passcode) try to open instagram and the screen flashed and went black. I can make calls and it seems to send messages but I dont know for sure because the screen is black. The power button (sleep) does not work and when I try to reset the phone it makes a call. I never synced it to a computer or Itunes and I didnt start photo stream. I want to preserve the pictures because it has photos of family members that have passed. Is there a way to get the photos?? Help please!

    If you have attempted the reset, which is holding the home button and sleep/wake button, was it still connected to the computer? Have you tried to do that when not connected. You stated it never came on, how long did you hold the buttons together? If you cannot get it to connect to iTunes then you would not be able to restore the device. You can see if you can put the device into Recovery Mode by following the instructions in this support document. If that does not work, then you are correct, make an appointment at the Apple Store. If you can't update or restore your iOS device

  • My iphone 5 screen went black and the only thing that works is siri!

    I was in the middle of opening up pintrest when my phone screen went black and won't turn back on. The only thing that works is siri... My lock button also doesn't work so I can't manually restart my phone. When I try to restore my phone i have to turn off find my phone but i cant because the screen is black.. Please please please help! I'm a poor college student who cannot afford a new phone

    Well, you can't perform a reset then. What happens when you plug the phone into a power source? If nothing, then you'll have to make an appointment at any Apple store. The genius bar will offer you an out of warranty replacement. Cost is US $269.

  • The screen turns black and the computer stays on

    hi,
    Once in a while when I am on my beige power macintosh and it runs smoothly, it all of a suddenly stops what it is doing and the screen turns black. when I am on iTunes some times, the screen turns black but the music still plays. I unplug and replug the monitor in but it is still black. Here are my computer stats. Ram 320mb, OS 10.2.8, 8 gig hard drive, 6mb vram, built in video, USB & Firewire PCI cards, and an AV Personality Card w/ 28k Modem, Running 333 mhz, and I have tried 3 other mother boards

    Welcome Jarrett,
    The article implies that using a certain version or "build" of the 10.2.8 updater fixes the problem. No true. Almost everyone who's experienced it on a Beige G3 has used the preferred updater specified in that article.
    Not every Beige gets it. I had 640MB when I moved to 10.2.8 and it never hiccuped. However, I run video off a PCI accelerator card and, as Frank mentioned, the video issue seems to happen when you are using the logic board video port.
    If you can't get your computer to boot and run long enough to use Terminal, pop it open and pull RAM until its under 192MB. Then the computer should be stable long enough to do the fix. Then you can add the pulled RAM back.
    The good new is that everyone seems to have permanently fixed the problem by applying the Terminal procedure described.

  • I can't change video resolution on youtube. When I try to change it, it goes to 240p and the screen is black and the vid doesnt play.

    Hello, I have this problem.
    Recently I noticed, that when I try to change the quality of the video from the default 360p to whatever one, the quality will jump to 240p and the video wont run. There will be just black screen.
    I tried resetting the browser and it did not fix my problem.
    I tried the same video in internet explorer and the quality change worked normally.
    How could I fix this?
    Thanks

  • What to do if you drop your Ipod and the top half of the screen is off and the ipod will no longer recognize your figure when you touch the screen

    So I dropped my Ipod on the floor and the top half of the Ipod came off and the screen will not recognize my figure when I try to swipe it to unlock the screen what do I do. But keep in mind that I have no money to fix it so how do I get it to work again?

    Likely because the drop broke something like the digitizer.
    Try:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost      
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Restore from backup. See:                                               
    iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.                       
    If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.
