2011 Macbook Pro Stuck on White Screen and Won't Shut Down

Greetings,
I just received a 15 inch Macbook Pro with a 2.2 i7 processor earlier today. On my previous computer, a 2009 MB P with a Core2Duo, I've had a shutdown issue on it for the past week or so: when I click the power button, and confirm the shutdown, the computer would start shutting down as normal, however once it reached the white screen with the spinning loading symbol at the bottom, it just got stuck on that. As I've transfered my old data to my brand new computer, I'm still having the same issue with it. I was wondering if this was due to a worm, or some software incompliancy? If anyone could shed any light, I'd be greatful.
Thanks.

That's all. Everything else is either from Apple, Adobe, or is downloaded from the app store.
Were you using any of them when the issue occurred (or just prior to it)?
Have you looked for updates on all of them?
If you want to do some digging, open Console and look at the logs at, and just prior to, the time of the issue.

My ipod 4g has a frozen white screen and will not turn off, any advice?

My daughter's ipod 4th gen (only 4 months old, bought direct from Apple) suddenly has a frozen white screen and will not turn off. We cannot reboot it by pushing and holding the two buttons, even when held up to one full minute. When we plug it into the computer, the computer does not recognise it nor does iTunes, so we can't even do a full system restore. Help! Any suggestions of how we can reset to factory settings without using iTunes please?

- Let the battery fully drain. After charging for at least an hour try :
iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- If still not successful that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

My mac book pro has a white screen and won't start up

My Mac book pro has been running slow, so I thought I would shut down and reboot. It wouldn't reboot past a white screen and an apple logo. I have rebooted several times and after an hour or so it still won't go any further. Any suggestions?

Howdy Lowana42,
Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
It sounds like your MacBook Pro has a startup issue that is causing it to only display an Apple logo. Try the suggestions in the article below, they will resolve most issues like this one.

21" iMac getting white screen and does not boot up

Hi All!
This is my first time to post here but have been using Mac OS since 2009.
I am having issues with my Mid 2011 iMac 21". I keep getting a white screen and it does not boot up.
I am a bit technical so I have done all the necessary steps as below:
1. Powercycle the system (Shutdown, unplug for 10 seconds and replug) = No go
2. Reset NVRAM several times = No go
3. Went to Safe Boot = Vertical white stripes on blue screen appears
4. Tried booting on Recovery Disk = Vertical white stripes on blue screen appears
I'm thinking my video card is faulty now.
Any help guys? I hope my hard drive is not fried
What's worse, my 3 year extended warranty just expired last June and it's only been 3 months

First i can't send it back becuase it didnt have a warranty i purchased it on ebay. second the guy didnt send the install disks with it as he promised i have tried to follow up with him with no luck so hes been reported to ebay. and due to current buisiness expenses cant afford the new software. is there anything else i can do to at least boot the thing so i can figure out whats wrong with it. and has anybody experienced this before and if so how was the issue resolved. soooo frustrated as buisiness is at a stand still till this machine works. p.s.it has osx leopard latest version.

HP Photosmart Printer 6520 has a white screen and won't go away?

My HP photosmart printer had been working fine until I turned it on today and it showed a blue screen with a power off/on symbol and quickly flashed to a blank white screen and hansn't changed since. I've unplugged it and plugged it in several times and it still does the same thing. I even left it unplugged for a while and plugged it back in and it still did the same thing? How do I fix this problem?

My LG Ally is frozen and won't shut off

This morning, when I tried to sign in to Google Talk it said it is unable to connect. When I cleared out of there I decided to power off and see if restarting helped the issue. Unfortunately, It got stuck while powering down and it won't shut off. I tried holding down buttons, which didn't do anything. I can't get the battery out and broke my nail in a really painful way trying. Any advice? How can I safely remove the battery without resorting to prying it out with a screwdriver?
If anyone can help I will be eternally grateful. I love this phone and hope this won't become a recurring issue.

My Lg Ally also had the exact same problem. I called tech support and after a couple of subsequent freezes, Verizon sent me a new phone. After a couple of days, the new phone is experiencing similar symptoms. The one thing I noticed that both phones had in common was the location where the freezing occurred. I was trying to place a call, when located approximately a hundred and fifty yards from a known cell site. I wonder if you have noticed the problem reoccurring at a particular location or proximity to a cell site. This is just an observation that I have made. As far as the battery, I would try to find a small piece of plastic or even a small baby spoon to pry the battery out. Something that will not damage the case. The only way to reset the phone is to pull out the battery. After you remove the battery, you might put a small tab of tape around the top. This way, if it happens again, you can pull on the tab of tape to remove the battery. (kind of like you see in the battery holder compartment of portable radios.) I hope this is not a common problem with these phones. Hopefully Verizon and LG will identify this problem immediately.
