Screen went blank

I just bought new Mac mini and attached to external monitor using hdmi cord.  Worked fine for a day, but now screen is dark and I can't seem to wake it up.  Have tried turning both computer and monitor on and off and I can m
Hear Mac mini making sounds when I press keys but I can't see anything on screen.

Your new Mac mini is covered by warranty if there is any question about whether or not something is working as it should get an appointment with the Genius Desk at the nearest Apple Store and take it in.  FWIW if you did not get Applecare, which extends your warranty by two years, I have found it well worh the money on more than one occasion.
Note: I am not an Apple employee and I receive no remuneration for recommending Applecare. I am just a satisfied customer.

    If the issue continues, restore as new.

  • I was using my MacBook Pro Mid-2010 and then the screen went blank, I did a hard restart and went to restart again and it won't startup.  The white light comes on and then the computer kinda "clicks" off!

  • IMac 27 screen went blank installing snow leopard

    My iMac 24 screen went blank installing snow leopard. Should I wait? I wish this **** machine ha a HDD light like a PC.

    You can attempt to reset the PRAM in the machine, but it looks as though there's a hardware problem. It's actually kind of difficult to determine if it's the graphics hardware or the mainboard, but neither are really servicable. You'll want to take it to get serviced.

  • Screen went blank,no power, even when I plug in, nothing happens.

    Screen went blank, lost all power. plugged it in, still nothing happens.

    You can try holding the power button down for 10-15 seconds to see if anything appears on the screen. With iTunes running on your computer, you can try plugging it in to see if the device appears within iTunes. If neither test works then you probably have a dead iPod as posted before.

    Restore from iTunes. It is hard to say if you want to backup or rather revert to an old backup. I would recommend to save the previous backups to a safe place and then backup the current state and later test the backups incase your iPhone comes back to proper life.

    IiPhone needs to cool down and screen went blank. It's been several hours and still no screen. Any suggestions?

    If you connect it to your computer, does iTunes see it? If you plug it in to charge, does it make any sound or vibrate?

  • Screen went blank on 4s and can't turn back on. Battery is charged.

    Screen went blank on 4s. Battery is fully charged. Can not turn on.

    Okay, got my phone back from the store I originally bought it at (the Swedish equivalent to Best Buy), and they had tried charging it with an iPhone-charger with no results. However, when they tested with an off-brand charger, it started working again. I wonder why that is.
    When I got home, it was on 98% and I plugged it in with my regular charger just to see if I would really need to go out of my way to buy a completely different charger. It charged up to 99%, and I then unplugged it. I will wait and see if the problem re-occurs, but as it looks now, I probably won't be needing to get the battery changed nor book an appointment with the Genius Bar I'll check in here again if that were to happen, to give my review of the Genius Bar!
    Thanks for all the help again

  • IPad 1st generation turned it on and clicked on an app then screen went blank and now I can't get it to do anything at all

    iPad 1st gen..help-clicked on an app and the screen went blank and now it won't' do anything-can't turn it off and it's getting hot. How do I remove the battery.

    You cannot remove the battery on the iPad. If it is getting very hot, unplug it from power, if it's plugged in and set it down somewhere to let it cool off. Set it on something that cannot catch fire - as bizarre as that sounds. Set it on something that will not burn.
    After it has cooled off, then try to restart it. If it will not start, try a reset.
    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 if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

    I downloaded the latest iOS7 to my iPad and then the screen went blank and would not respond.   I have tried pressing the two buttons together and briefly get the Apple logo but still can not restart, the logo disappears.   I have tried connecting to my iMac to restore the iPad but the device does not show up (I have an old iMac).   What else can I do?

    You need to be running Snow Leopard 10.6.8 at the very least in order to sync your iPad with iTunes so you could update your Mac, if it can be updated, and if you care to do so.
    If that's not an option, you will have to find someone that can restore the device for you with their computer running iTunes or make an appointment at an Apple Store and ask them to restore the device for you.
    I hope that you have an iCloud backup, because you will lose everything on the device when it is restored.
    Snow Leopard can still be purchased in the U.S. Apple Online Store.

    Also, I would not give up on the reset technique....holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time until the Apple logo appears. It takes about 10-15 seconds and sometimes just a little longer to get the logo to appear.

  • While using IBOOKS I touched something on the screen and the screen went blank.  Can't get normal screen back.

    While using IBOOKS I touched something on the screen and the screen went blank and I can't get back to normal IBOOKS screen.  How do?

    Try to reset your device:
    Device Reset (won't affect settings/data/music/apps/etc)
    1. Press and hold (& continue to hold) BOTH the Sleep/Wake button & the Home button.
    2. Continue to hold BOTH (ignoring any other messages that may show) until you see the Apple logo on the screen.
    3. Release BOTH buttons when you see the Apple logo and allow the device to boot normally.

  • My iPad just died. The gear symbol came up and then the screen went blank (turned off). It was fully charged so that wan't the issue.

    My iPad just died. The gear symbol came up and then the screen went blank (turned off). It was fully charged so that wan't the issue.

    That is indicating that the device has gone into recovery mode. Press just the Power button until the red Power Off slider appears and slide to turn it off. Then power it back up to see if it has exited Recovery Mode. If it has, then you should be good to go.
    If it has not, then the issue you had that caused the iPad to turn off was one that put your device into Recovery mode requiring that you go through the recovery process (i.e., the reset did not process since the issue required a recovery to resolve). Here is a link that explains what you need to do to get out of Recovery Mode in that case:

  • IPad screen went blank / black

    I tried to delete a certain apps that's not responding and the iPad screen went blank.

    Hi iDheygy,
    Reset your iPad (nothing will be lost): Hold down the Home and Power buttons at the same time and continue to hold them down until the Silver Apple appears (up to 30 seconds). Once the Home screen redisplays, see if all is well.
    Cheers,
