Screen went black, now it's making noise.

My iMac screen went black during use.  When I re-started, it began making a roaring noise.  Any ideas what the problem might be?

The roaring noise is your fan, it's likely that your power supply has failed, usually it's because of bad capacitators,

    Try a reset: Press and hold both Sleep/Wake and Home buttons until the Apple logo appears.

    Hey BlueEyedDude,
    Thanks for the question. I’m sorry to hear about your iPod nano! If you believe you have isolated the issue completely to hardware, you can learn more about servicing your device at the following link:

    https://www.apple.com/support/ipodnano/4th_5th_generation/
    If you do decide to service your device, you’ll want to make sure all of the music and information is backed up. If you regularly sync your device with a computer, this music should be on the computer. If not, you can learn about what purchases you can transfer from the iPod to a computer:

  • My iphone 4s screen went black, then siri stopped working, now the phone wont charge

    My iphone 4s screen went black, but Siri was still working and then a little bit later Siri stopped working. I then let the battery go dead and have plugged it into my laptop and it is not responding. I tried holding the lock button and home button for 10-15 seconds but that did nothing. Any ideas on what the problem could be?

    Hi
    how old is the device as the battery may need replacing or if no help visit your local apple store or contact support
    good luck

  • When I added a new contact the screen went black in contacts.  I'm not able to access my contacts now.  I turned the iPad off and back on, still onlythe black screen appears.

    When I added a contact to my contacts, took a picture and added Ringtone, pressed done, the screen went black and I am not able to access contacts.  I turned off the ipad but still cannot access contacts.

    I don't fully understand what the System Reset does but I've found that it cures many ills.  It's easy, quick and harmless:
    Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo.  Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears.
    A System Reset does not remove any apps, music, movies, etc. nor does it cause any settings to revert back to default.
    Also, you might wish to download the iPad-2 User Guide.  Pay special attention to page 162.  Note that this Guide also applies to the iPad-1 with IOS 4.3 except for those functions that are not supported by the hardware.
    http://support.apple.com/manuals/#ipad
    Finally,  the User Guide can be downloaded at no charge via iBooks and a less   comprehensive version of the Guide is included as a Safari bookmark.

  • Help! MacbookPro screen went black

    I am lost, my computer was on sleep mode and I went to turn it back on and the screen went black even though I could see a faint view of my screen in the background of the black screen, it was also making a lot more noise than normal so I turned it off and then it wouldn't boot up. It would start too for about 2 seconds, literally, and then the screen would go back dark. I took it to be fixed and had the hardrive replaced but it won't work. Is my computer a lost cause, is my motherboard damaged? Help ... What can I do I need it for school!

    Apparently the folks who fixed it didn't. So take it back.

  • Macbook Pro 13" Screen went Black - Can only see when plugged into another display! HELP!

    My MacBook Pro's screen went black last night and now when it turns on it stays black. I plugged it into my tv through the mini display port and I can see everything fine on the tv but the screen on my laptop is black. Everything else seems to be working fine. Any advice that doesn't involve taking to Genius Bar??? Already tried booting in safe mode, resetting the PRAM and NVRAM. Need to fix this ASAP. Thanks!!

    Please make a Genius Appointment and take it in for service.

    I've had the same problem, and sorted it using this:
    Run the Boot Camp Assistant in OS X as normal and create a partition when asked, then insert your Windows 7 disc to reboot and begin the process proper.
    Windows 7 requires the NTFS file system, so once in the installer just select your new partition (labelled BOOTCAMP), click on Drive options (Advanced) and choose to format it. Then select the newly formatted partition and continue.
    Windows 7 will begin installing, and once it gets almost to the bottom of its checklist, it’ll try to reboot. Now, if you leave it here, you’ll get so far and see the black screen. Any further attempts to reboot will bring you to the same dead end.
    Instead, restart and press a key to boot from the Windows 7 disc when prompted.
    Rather than running the installation again, choose the little option at the bottom to Repair your computer. Decline any suggestions that pop up until you see a list of options with Command Prompt at the bottom. Choose that option.
    At the Command Prompt, type DEL C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\DRIVERS\ATIKMDAG.SYS to delete the default ATI driver, then close the window and reboot.
    This time, Windows should successfully initialise a more appropriate display driver, allowing you into the desktop. From here insert your OS X disc to install the relevant hardware drivers as you normally would, then run Windows update to clear up any leftovers.
