No apple logo shown on non-native apps
Every time i'm running a non-native app (apps not by apple) i got no apple logo on the upper left corner, it is just an aesthetic thing yet it's really annoying, apple logo is shown for apple apps, for updated apps (openoffice, skype and few more) but it's not showing for chrome, for adobe suite and so on...
(beside i got no icon in the menu bar for dropbox, but i contacted their own support too)
Greetings,
I just had the exact same problem with a Mini. Would only boot to a gray screen no matter what I did. Booting into the OpenFirmware did help, booting into the Startup utility (by holding "T" down at startup showed no hard drive and no CD/DVD drive.
Hold on to your hat . . . .
The issue was the battery. These guys have a Lithium battery that allows them to boot up, a battery that can be purchased anywhere that sells those kinds of thing. I bought 2 for $3.50, it was more time and trouble to get into the case and get at the logic board but once the battery was replaced everything works like a dream.
Here is an excellent step-by-step tutorial about getting into the case http://www.sterpin.net/uk/ddMacMiniuk.htm. Just make sure that doing so doesn't void any warranties.
Good Luck!

Anyone else getting errors when importing Music Library music into non-native apps?
I have had a bunch of Music Production apps On my iPad for a long time and all the way through iOS four iOS 5 they worked just fine importing songs from my iPod library on my iPad and my iPhone however all of a sudden after the iOS six update they do not any longer seem to have the ability to import these songs. It appears to be a universal problem across ALL non-native apps ... On songs that are DRM-Free. I have specifically tried importing tracks that have imported before with no problems, downloading new copies of the same tracks, and purchasing new DRM-free content in the iTunes Store. None of which will work. My devices are not jailbroken, or altered from factory in any way, I just purchased a new iPhone 5 and a new iPad 3 and neither of them are allowing me to import these tracks. I have tried:
AnyTune / AnyTune HD
Vocalive (paid version) from IK Multimedia
Amplitube / Fender Amplitube from IK Multimedia
ISequence Pro HD
Studio HD
Is anyone else experiencing this problem? I have -- on a few apps -- been shown the "Convert this song to a different format and try again" dialog, and I can import songs if I use my laptop and a browser, but I can't seem to import any song directly from the Music Library stored locally on my iPad or my iPhone.
Help?
Best Regards, Rob NortonThanks, Ed.
Well, if iTunes is running, I figured out that you can drag the folder where the wav files are directly onto the main portion of the iTunes screen. This will
import the wav files into iTunes. Then group select the new song
entries and use "convert selection to AAC" from the Advanced menu.
There may be a way to convert without creating double entries for the
songs (I think that's the way you have to do it in iTunes: hence my attitude that iTunes is convenient in some respects, but less than clear in other respects..in other words, it's not a perfect program), but I delete the wav tracks after the conversion.
This is what I've gleaned from using iTunes a bit and from having been advised by friends. So, other than using a third-party freeware like X Lossless Decoder to convert music files before moving them onto iPod, apparently this is what you have to deal with when using the iTunes program.
If any Apple people are reading this, I would personally like the iTunes "importing" and display functions to be clearer and less cumbersome to use (like that third-party freeware). iTunes seems to be easy enough to use if you're importing music from a CD, but measurably less so if you just want to convert music files residing elsewhere on the computer's hard drive. -
Apple iPhone 5 Flashing with apple logo and load bar and apps working
flickering, with apple logo and load bar and apps in that background that all work while screen flickering, had to restore my phone to get to stop flashing and eliminate the load bar.
Hello missyfromsouthport,
After reviewing your post, I have located an article that can help in this situation. It contains a number of troubleshooting steps and helpful advice concerning restoration issues:
If you can't update or restore your iOS device
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808
You might need to use recovery mode if:
You can't update or restore because iTunes doesn't recognize your device or says it's "in recovery mode".
The Apple logo remains onscreen for several minutes with no progress bar.
The Connect to iTunes screen appears.
See what to do if the progress bar remains onscreen for several minutes
Use recovery mode
Recovery mode erases your device and restores it, which should resolve the issue. If you previously synced with iTunes or iCloud, you may be able to restore from your backup after recovery.
Turn off your device. If you can't turn it off, press and hold the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons at the same time and wait a few seconds for it to turn off.
Plug the device's USB cable into your computer only.
Hold down the device's Home button as you connect the USB cable to it.
When you see the Connect to iTunes screen, release the Home button. If you don't see this screen, try steps 1 through 3 one more time.
iTunes should open and display a message such as: "iTunes has detected an iPhone in recovery mode. You must restore this iPhone before it can be used with iTunes."
Use iTunes to restore your device.
If you don't see your device in iTunes, follow these steps for Mac or these for Windows.
Additional Information
If you started your device in recovery mode by mistake, restart it to exit recovery mode. Or you can just wait—after 15 minutes the device will exit recovery mode by itself.
Thank you for contributing to Apple Support Communities.
Cheers,

Text substitution in non-native apps.
Can text substitution work in non-native apps like Chrome? I'd rather use a built-in feature than load Typinator or other apps. They sometimes get hung up, whereas when I was suing Safari it was all smooth with the OS version...
Try it and report back with your findings.

Upgrade worked(?), apps back, but non-native apps won't open
Anybody having this problem....after 6 hours, iOS 5 update completed on my iPad2. No error messages, all apps back where they belonged. I thought I was one of the lucky few for which it all worked.
But..none of my non-native apps will even open - just a quick darkening of the screen and back to Home.
All native apps open and work.
I have rebooted...nothing...
Should I try restoring again? Or is there a way that would take less than 6 hours??
ThanksExact same problem, I restored and it seemd to work again - so i put all my apps and movies back on and volla, it does the 'maximizing' animation as if the app is about to start loading then it just vanishs.. the built in apps all work but not a single other app loads

All non-native iPad apps crashing
Hi,
Yesterday out of the blue all of my non-native apps starting crashing as soon as they were opened. The only apps that were spared were Numbers and Keynote. Pages is having the problem too and I'm reluctant to delete it and reinstall because I have some useful files stored in it.
Has anyone else had this problem?
Thanks in advance,Try here...

Not a single app will run after updating to 5 (other than native apps)
I have just updated to iOS5 and of my 60+ non native apps (Navigo, Facebook etc) not a single one will run.
Is anyone else experiencing?
Thanks,
DerekGo to the app store and update all apps that are available for update. There are several releases for iOS5. Once I did this, all my apps started working again (even ones that didn't need updating).

hello everyone, as I have stated above, I have an Iphone 4G realtively new, just 3 months of use. I've never dropped it, nor got it wet. The problem is that the screen just one day went black and displays the apple logo, when I do the recovery mode everyway possible the screen shows the itunes link but the pc doesn't acknowledge it.. I've tried on many pcs (windows and mac) and none respond because the device is not shown on itunes it just says "driver not found"
please what to do???Call Apple Customer Relations - 1-800-275-2273. Ask politely & firmly that you want to be transferred to Customer Relations. Tell them exactly what you stated in your post.
GOOD LUCK!

My mini ipod appears off and not respond to any commands when pressed the buttons to reset, apple logo appeared and then the apple support site and it shuts down. already tried all the steps, but none worked, and when I plug it into my computer it does not appear in the iTunes bar. what do I do?
If MacKeeper corrupted the Recovery partition then even I underestimated its potential for damage. Garbage "cleaning" apps will cause misery but I have not found that the Recovery partition to have been affected by using MacKeeper or anything like it. I doubt that it did so, but I have learned not to underestimate the potential for such things to result in system corruption.
Before concluding your Mac has a hardware failure, try booting OS X Internet Recovery by holding command option r on startup (three fingers). That will force your iMac to bypass the Recovery partition altogether, and convey the ability to create a new one.
An Internet connection will be required (wired or wireless).
At the Mac OS X Utilities screen, select Disk Utility. Select your startup volume (usually named "Macintosh HD") and click the Repair Disk button. Describe any errors it reports in red. If Disk Utility reports "The volume Macintosh HD appears to be OK" in green then you can be reasonably (though not completely) assured your hard disk is in good working order.
Assuming the HD remains usable you can then use Disk Utility to erase it. Reinstall OS X, restore your essential software and other files, and don't reinstall the junk. -
Mavericks and kerberized NFS and Apple Native Apps
"Sandbox creation failed: AppSandboxUtilRealPathForPath(self.userAccountHomeDirectoryPath) failed: The operation couldn’t be completed. Permission denied"
We have a kerberized NFS environment that automounts an NFS mount which stores user home directories. Under 10.9.1 all worked fine, however when we upgraded to 10.9.2 and beyond we can no longer successfully launch any Apple Native apps such as Preview, Maps, etc. The apps quit unexpectly producing the error listed above. A search of the internet for this particular error message yields only a single result and the circumstances are completely dissimilar as the other issue occurs on non-Apple hardware.
http://www.tonymacx86.com/general-help/121664-cant-open-any-default-installed-ap plications-quit-unexpectedly-10-9-mavericks.html
Anyone with any insight or seeing similar results that has any good solutions or ideas are welcomed.Switch to AFP?
Ask in the Mac OS X Server section?
Ask on Spiceworks Community?
In the 10.5 and 10.6 days, NFS wouldn't do the resource forks correctly which broke the fonts. -
So I wanted to ask a question that my googlefoo couldn't help me solve.
I bought an iphone at a reputable electronics market here in China and it is an AT&T model phone. I bought it at one of the grey market locations because they were sold out elsewhere. I contacted a friend at AT&T to make sure it is a legit AT&T model. The phone is great and everything works perfectly including maps. But maps are done by Autonavi here in China, not Apple. I downloaded the Mavericks update on my mac and tried some of the new maps features and they wouldn't work with my phone. That's okay since I live in China now but I'll be going back to the USA soon and I wonder what will happen. Will it update the app to Apple's native one or stay with Autonavi. Autonatvi does not have the flyover features and it is not robust in the USA.
Who can help me out here? Has anyone purchased a 5, 5c, or 5s in China and gone elsewhere? Did the maps app change?
Thank you
tl;dr my china iphone has autonavi for maps not apple, when I go to the usa will I get the native app?I live in China as well and my iPhone5s is the model A1530 I bougth outside China. I have the same problem as Nikatnight with the iPhone while the iPad Air (wifi only) is working like a charm. It must be definitely something related to the carrier since I was abroad few days ago and everything worked well.
If you pay attention at the source of your maps, you'll discover they are provided by AutoNavi instead of TomTom and make them appear in chinese with their own border interpretation. Queries are only acceppted in Chinese (p.e. if I type in english "Los Angeles International Airport" it replies it cannot locate it)
I suppose everything will be fine when you'll be out of censorship....
Perhaps iOS Apple Maps are absolutely useless for expatriate in China.
Use Google Maps instead
BTW, I'm surprised how much Apple might prostrate towards hard power Governments.... No matter what, money are always on top! -
IPhone OS 2.0 at Black Screen with Apple Logo, Apps crash and not run
Apple Support: Do not delete this. I am complying with your requests. According to your T&C, I must state my problems in question form to ask the community or your teams for help in a constructive way. I believe my original post was only playfully negative, but since I am complying now, I would expect that you do not delete this, otherwise you're simplying just trying to put spin on a buggy release. PLEASE HELP. I have not heard back from Feedback, and phone support continually says to RESTORE the phone, which only solves these problems for a few hours.
1) My iPhone OS 2.0 is very slow, even with a virgin restore with no apps or synchronized content.
2) My iPhone OS 2.0 reboots at random times.
3) My PURCHASED applications crash randomly, under unreproducible conditions.
4) Free applications crash randomly.
5) My iPhone OS 2.0 will not boot after an irregular interval of reboots, showing only the black screen with the apple logo. Letting this sit for 8 hours simply drains the battery until it goes pitch black. POWER+DOWN_ARROW and an iTunes restore is the only way to recover. This process takes hours to complete.
I have gone several days without a working phone while away from the iTunes at home to restore my contacts and other data vital to the operation of my business, not to mention a phone that actually works to make and receive calls.
As stated in the previous post, I'm a loyal Apple customer, and have spent considerable time evangelizing the brand, and have spent hundreds of thousands of dollars by purchasing Apple laptops instead of Dell.
Can you please tell me how to solve this? If there is no firmware problem, please give me a real solution to fix this. I am not the only one with this problem.
Thank you in advance,
KevinMany of us have this problem. I've had it several times now.
The only way to fix it, is to restore the iPhone.
I know it seems like it wont boot, or wont do anything, but it will... just do this.
Start Itunes. Turn off the iPhone, now put it in the dock or plug it into the USB cable, WHILE holding the top button on the phone down. Keep holding it down. It will then show a connect cable icon on the phone. It should show up in iTunes at this point. Proceed to restore the phone per screen instructions.
Once its back up and booting and working etc...
MAKE SURE... you DO NOT... install any application or delete any application on your iphone. IF you dare do so.... MAKE ABSOLUTELY certain you do not do ANYTHING at the same time. That means NEVER DL an app from itunes store on your phone, and while it is installing, ... avoid clicking on anything, touching the phone, starting a different app, going back to the itunes store...
In other words... If you try to multitask... it causes some weird bug. -
Just upgraded my iPad to IOS5 and when the download was completed, a window said that there was an error and it could not restore. Now I have a black screen with the Apple logo and the circle lines. None of the buttons respond. Help, please!!
Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. Maybe this will let the iPad reboot and then you may need to restore again but see if this helps to start the iPad first.
