Unlocked IPhone 4 stuck on loading bar with apple logo

Pretty much what it says on the tin, I downloaded the iOS 6 update today and after downloading and installing the phone told me to plug it into my laptop where it then downloaded another update of some description, after that my IPhone 4 just stayed on the apple logo with a loading bar underneath and constantly resetting itself from time to time! Oh and my laptop no longer detects my IPhone at all! y
Any help would be super awesome

Try a Hard Reset, hold together Home and Power buttons for about 15 seconds until iPhone restarts. If  does not work connect iPhone to wall charger and then try the Hard Reset again. If still does not work, leave iPhone on wall charger for some time, maybe 20 minutes and try Hard Reset again.

  • Updating ipad 2 to 4.3.2, loading bar with apple logo stuck

    Hi, after getting my iPad 2 a couple days ago I decided today to update to 4.3.2. The loading bar on the iPad is at about 90%, and on iTunes the loading bar is at the last bit and says 'updating iPad software...'. It has not budged one bit in about 25 minutes now. I was wondering what the best course of action would be? I don't care at this point if I have to revert back to 4.3.1 (if that is even possible at this point), I just want my iPad to work. Thanks for any help!

    Try a reset first.
    Depress sleep/wake and Home buttons simultaneously until the white Apple logo appears.
    Now try updating again.

  • Computer doesn't boot, stuck in white screen with Apple logo

    I got a friend that has a MacBook 2.0GHz, Black. The computer had some sort of problem so he took out the HD and placed it into another computer (MacBook 2.2GHz, Black). For some reason whenever the computer boots, it gets stuck in the white screen with the gray Apple logo, and shows up a bar, as if it's loading some sort of firmware update. It never advances, and it doesn't go thru.
    If he takes the same HD and puts it into an enclosure, first it would take a while to mount in another computer, and afterwards it would give some errors, but now it doesn't even load.
    Before he had the issue with his original computer everything was working fine, and there was no update going on when the computer got broken. The problem that that computer has isn't related to the HD.

    If you have physically removed the drive and connected it to another computer and it "took a while to mount" then it sounds like the drive itself is failing. Hopefully he maintains backups.
    Boot the MacBook in "verbose" mode (press and hold down option+v while powering up)
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1492
    In this mode you will see all the boot messages scroll by instead of the typical white screen with Apple logo. You will likely be able to see messages indicating what the computer is trying to do -- for example messages indicating that having failures or retrying to read the hard drive.
    The access arms on hard drives have to be precisely located above the "tracks" on the disk in order to read data. As the drive ages & wears, the accuracy of the arms can become sloppy, causing the read/write head to no longer be precisely located over a track. This results in failure to read correctly. Most drives have a useful life of about 5 years -- after which the failure rate will go up substantially. Fortunately, replacement hard drives are cheap.

  • Mac stuck on white screen with apple logo at startup

    It's a few days i have this issue.
    When i turn on my macmini (late 2009) it does the startup sound, but when the white screen with apple logo appears it stucks on that screen.
    To solve this problem i have to unplug the power connector, when i restart it works normally.
    This happens randomly, not at every startup.
    I switched from normal HD to ssd HD (brand new one), i have the same problem with both HDs.

  • Updated iPhone 4s to ios8 but screen is stuck on white screen with apple logo and progress bar

    I updated my phone last night and my iPhone screen is white and has a gray apple logo and a progress bar which has been the same for 12 hours. The bar looks almost completel but it hasn't moved at all. my phone was also unplugged accidentally during the night while it was on this screen. would that have any effect?

    Turn it off, go into recovery mode (command R at boot), wipe everything, go back and install Yosemite. Its suggested that you are using ethernet as it goes a lot faster that Wifi and more reliable. If you do not have a ethernet cable, you can still use Wifi. Hope this fixes your problem.

  • MBP (2010) stuck in grey screen with Apple logo no matter what I do.

    Hi everybody,
    I know this issue has been posted many times in the past, and I have searched everywhere, but I am quickly running out of option but to repartition/reformat and do a clean install. I have important files on my computer (I know! Back up! Back up! Back up!) and need your help to preferably regain full access to my system or somehow find access to my files so I could transfer them to an external hdd.
    From two days ago my as I was browing the net through Google Chrome my computer all of a sudden started to show the sippinig beach ball and became completely unresponsive. I could not force shut down any program or restart the system. So, I held down the power button and forced the system to shut down. When I rebooted the MB it all began going haywire. The boot process gets stuck in a grey screen with the Apple logo and the spinning wheel (not the beach ball) for a long time. After that I get the mouse pointer, and if I move that it turns to the spinning beach ball and nothing happens except that the screen flashes between silver and grey colors.
    So here are the steps I have taken as to "attempt" to fix the issue  (I have followed these instructions: https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3353) :
    1. Went into startup manager and ran the disk utility to verify disk volume and permissions. Everything seems to be OK.
    2. Conducted a PRAM reset. No change.
    3. Conducted a SMC reset. No change.
    4. I did a fsck -fy run (in command mode) on startup. No change.
    5. Ran the system in verbose mode and got the following error: "BootCacheControl : Unable to open /var/db/BootCache.playlist"
    6. And lastly, I created 10.8 OSX image on a USB stick and reinstalled ML one more time only to get stuck at the same place yet again.
    Additionally, I can see my computer from my wife's MBP also running ML for a while. The folder that I have set the permission to be available, I can access! I have moved some files, but naturally the files that I want are in folders that have restricted network access. That just tells me the hard itself should be fine (perhaps).
    I am running out of ideas fast to save the system. If anyone can help me, I'd be immensely grateful. Thanks.

    Take each of these steps that you haven't already tried. Stop when the problem is resolved.
    Step 1
    The first step in dealing with a boot failure is to secure your data. If you want to preserve the contents of the startup drive, and you don't already have at least one current backup, you must try to back up now, before you do anything else. It may or may not be possible. If you don't care about the data that has changed since your last backup, you can skip this step.
    There are several ways to back up a Mac that is unable to boot. You need an external hard drive to hold the backup data.
    a. Boot into Recovery by holding down the key combination command-R at the startup chime, or from a local Time Machine backup volume (option key at startup.) Release the keys when you see a gray screen with a spinning dial. When the OS X Utilities screen appears, launch Disk Utility and follow the instructions in the support article linked below, under “Instructions for backing up to an external hard disk via Disk Utility.”
    How to back up and restore your files
    b. If you have access to a working Mac, and both it and the non-working Mac have FireWire or Thunderbolt ports, boot the non-working Mac in target disk mode by holding down the key combination command-T at the startup chime. Connect the two Macs with a FireWire or Thunderbolt cable. The internal drive of the machine running in target mode will mount as an external drive on the other machine. Copy the data to another drive. This technique won't work with USB, Ethernet, Wi-Fi, or Bluetooth.
    How to use and troubleshoot FireWire target disk mode
    c. If the internal drive of the non-working Mac is user-replaceable, remove it and mount it in an external enclosure or drive dock. Use another Mac to copy the data.
    Step 2
    Press and hold the power button until the power shuts off. Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed to boot, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Use a different keyboard and/or mouse, if those devices are wired. If you can boot now, one of the devices you disconnected, or a combination of them, is causing the problem. Finding out which one is a process of elimination.
    Before reconnecting an external storage device, make sure that your internal boot volume is selected in the Startup Disk pane of System Preferences.
    Step 3
    Boot in safe mode.* The instructions provided by Apple are as follows:
    Shut down your computer, wait 30 seconds, and then hold down the shift key while pressing the power button.
    When you see the gray Apple logo, release the shift key.
    If you are prompted to log in, type your password, and then hold down the shift key again as you click Log in.
    Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including wireless networking on certain Macs.
    The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
    *Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t boot in safe mode. Post for further instructions.
    When you boot in safe mode, it's normal to see a dark gray progress bar on a light gray background. If the progress bar gets stuck for more than a few minutes, or if the system shuts down automatically while the progress bar is displayed, your boot volume is damaged and the drive is probably malfunctioning. In that case, go to step 5.
    If you can boot and log in now, empty the Trash, and then open the Finder Info window on your boot volume ("Macintosh HD," unless you gave it a different name.) Check that you have at least 9 GB of available space, as shown in the window. If you don't, copy as many files as necessary to another volume (not another folder on the same volume) and delete the originals. Deletion isn't complete until you empty the Trash again. Do this until the available space is more than 9 GB. Then reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode.)
    If the boot process hangs again, the problem is likely caused by a third-party system modification that you installed. Post for further instructions.
    Step 4
    Sometimes a boot failure can be resolved by resetting the NVRAM.
    Step 5
    Launch Disk Utility in Recovery mode (see above for instructions.) Select your startup volume, then run Repair Disk. If any problems are found, repeat until clear. If Disk Utility reports that the volume can't be repaired, the drive has malfunctioned and should be replaced. You might choose to tolerate one such malfunction in the life of the drive. In that case, erase the volume and restore from a backup. If the same thing ever happens again, replace the drive immediately.
    This is one of the rare situations in which you should also run Repair Permissions, ignoring the false warnings it produces. Look for the line "Permissions repaired successfully" at the end of the output. Then reboot as usual.
    Step 6
    Boot into Recovery again. When the OS X Utilities screen appears, follow the prompts to reinstall the OS. If your Mac was upgraded from an older version of OS X, you’ll need the Apple ID and password you used to upgrade.
    Note: You need an always-on Ethernet or Wi-Fi connection to the Internet to use Recovery. It won’t work with USB or PPPoE modems, or with proxy servers, or with networks that require a certificate for authentication.
    Step 7
    Repeat step 6, but this time erase the boot volume in Disk Utility before installing. The system should automatically reboot into the Setup Assistant. Follow the prompts to transfer your data from a backup.
    Step 8
    If you get this far, you're probably dealing with a hardware fault. Make a "Genius" appointment at an Apple Store to have the machine tested.

  • IMac Stuck on White Screen with Apple Logo

    Currently own: iMac 21.5" 2009 version with Snow Leopard, 4GB Ram, 500 GB Hard drive
    This computer was sitting in storage of my basement for 2 years because I was out of town on business.
    When I came home the computer worked fine. But earlier this evening it was on sleep mode and the dreadful color wheel was on. So I rebooted it, only to see that it was stuck on the white loading screen with the Apple logo. And nothing more. Panic struck me and I tried restarting it again, to no avail. Then I tried rebooting in Safe mode- but it won't respond. THEN I called Apple Care, and they tried to have me go through the process where it checks the Hardware. It took 45 minutes and then the screen said "It was modified", or something to that degree. But when we reboot it, it returned to the white screen.
    I am so upset. I now have an appointment with the Apple store on Monday. I don't have a warranty anymore. How much is it going to cost if they have to replace to hard drive? I thought Apple computers were meant to last! This is beyond ridiculous! I had not downloaded anything wrong, wasn't on crazy websites. It still had over 350 GB of space left. Why didn't the tests we did over the phone work? Is my computer broken? I do have an external hard drive with Time machine, so I am not concerned about losing my data. I am, however, concerned about shelling out another $1500 for a new computer!

    If you are taking it to Apple they will fix it for you, but they will install Snow Leopard. If you want the current Mavericks you can download that yourself from your home and install it. This is dependent somewhat on what model you actually have.
    Upgrading from Snow Leopard to Lion or Mountain Lion
    You can upgrade to Mountain Lion from Lion or directly from Snow Leopard. Mountain Lion can be downloaded from the Mac App Store for $19.99.
    If you sign into the App Store and try to purchase Mountain Lion but the App Store says your computer is not compatible then you may still be able to upgrade to Lion per the following information.
    A. Upgrading to Mountain Lion or Mavericks
    To upgrade to Mountain Lion or Mavericks you must have Snow Leopard 10.6.8 or Lion installed. Purchase and download Mountain Lion or Mavericks (Free) from the App Store. Sign in using your Apple ID. Mountain Lion is $19.99 plus tax. The file is quite large, over 5 GBs, so allow some time to download. It would be preferable to use Ethernet because it is nearly four times faster than wireless.
         OS X Mountain Lion — System Requirements
         OS X Mavericks- System Requirements
           Macs that can be upgraded to OS X Mountain Lion
             1. iMac (Mid 2007 or newer) — Model Identifier 7,1 or later
             2. MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer) —
                 Model Identifier 5,1 or later
             3. MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer) — Model Identifier 3,1 or later
             4. MacBook Air (Late 2008 or newer) — Model Identifier 2,1 or later
             5. Mac mini (Early 2009 or newer) — Model Identifier 3,1 or later
             6. Mac Pro (Early 2008 or newer) — Model Identifier 3,1 or later
             7. Xserve (Early 2009) — Model Identifier 3,1 or later
    To find the model identifier open System Profiler in the Utilities folder. It's displayed in the panel on the right.
    Are my applications compatible?
             See App Compatibility Table — RoaringApps.
    B. Upgrading to Lion
    If your computer does not meet the requirements to install Mountain Lion, it may still meet the requirements to install Lion.
    You can purchase Lion by contacting Customer Service: Contacting Apple for support and service - this includes international calling numbers. The cost is $19.99 (as it was before) plus tax.  It's a download. You will get an email containing a redemption code that you then use at the Mac App Store to download Lion. Save a copy of that installer to your Downloads folder because the installer deletes itself at the end of the installation.
         Lion System Requirements
           1. Mac computer with an Intel Core 2 Duo, Core i3, Core i5, Core i7,
               or Xeon processor
           2. 2GB of memory
           3. OS X v10.6.6 or later (v10.6.8 recommended)
           4. 7GB of available space
           5. Some features require an Apple ID; terms apply.
    I can't help you any more if you don't have the installer DVD, so you will have to wait until Monday. I had hoped we might get you working before then, but that isn't going to happen, I"m afraid.

  • Macbook stuck on white screen with apple logo. help please

    I have a macbook (black model) and while I was surfing on internet it is frozen. so I shut it down and restarted. When I restarted, it stuck on white screen with gray apple logo and seems like booting but nothing happens.
    after that, I restarted again and put installation disc (leopard) without pressing any key and it opened normally. I backed up os with time machine but in one hour it is frozen again.
    restarted again but this time it did not boot normally. so i tried booting from cd with c key, it opened installation screen. I have opened disk utility top repair disk, but when I click on disc image, repair / verify disk buttons are unavailable to click and S.M.A.R.T status is not supported.
    After all, I tried to erase and install system several times, but after language section when I click agree to terms and conditions, mac freeze again.
    So, I do not know what to do. Any help please?
    Note: I already tried PRM and Safe Mode. (after safe mode it took me to installation screen again and nothing changed.)
    Any help would be much appreciated!
    Uptade: Also, opened system profiler and clicked on Serial-ATA, it seems loading but do not show any info. stucked again! help please

    HI,
    *"I have opened disk utility top repair disk, but when I click on disc image, repair / verify disk buttons are unavailable to click and S.M.A.R.T status is not supported."*
    You need to select "MacintoshHD 10.5.8 not "disc image" in order to run Disk Utility and Verify and if necessary, Repair the disk.
    That's why you are seeing this dialog.
    *are unavailable to click and S.M.A.R.T status is not supported.*
    Also, run the Apple Hardware Test.

  • Loading bar under Apple logo on startup

    Hello,
    So about a month or so ago, after i had installed and ran Lion since the day of release, my iMac version 11,3 my mac has started showing a grey progress bar underneath the apple logo during startup. When this loading bar appears, the mac then goes to the loading screen, but it seams that my graphics card is acting slow or weird somehow. After loging in, i have no sound whatsoever, or any network connection at all. Its like all the drivers have miraculously disappeared!
    As i read somewhere that it could be something relating to a hard drive problem that, on startup, is trying to fix, i changed the HDD to a new SSD (didnt buy it just for that reason, was looking at getting one anyway)
    This has not fixed the problem and i believe it could have something to do with a bug in lion, as for the entire time ive owned this mac, it has been fine. I believe this has happened to a couple of other people, but i hope detailed information can help solve it.
    Thanks for reading. Hope you can help.

    I am able to reinstall the os if it matters, just would not like to lose all of my data.
    Does that mean that you choose to not keep a backup?
    The loading bar is normal, once it was a little wheel, now it's a bar. Same thing.

  • Stuck on grey screen with apple logo when starting up?

    Hi,
    My Macbook (2009 aluminium unibody (Leopard 10.5.8)) won't boot. When I try to start it up it gives the chime and then gets stuck at the grey screen with the Apple logo and some spinning gear below. I have tried booting with the install DVD and repairing through Disk Utility but this doesn't work. Disk Utility can see the hard drive but none of the partitions on it! This makes me think the hard drive has died.
    However, I can still boot to Windows through BootCamp. From Windows 7 I can still see and access files from the Mac partition. So maybe the hard drive is ok and something else needs fixing... SATA cable???
    Other info:
    The night before this happened my computer froze when trying to shut down from Windows and I had to force shut down.
    The current internal hard drive is only about 4 months old (a bit short for it to be dying already - its a Western Digital 750gb 7200rpm). I replaced the old one as it had stopped working (at least i thought it was the hard drive ). The hard drive I replaced had lasted about 2 years (Seagate 500gb 7200rpm). Maybe the 7200rpm gets too hot?
    Any help much appreciated as I really don't want to be reinstalling again.
    Thanks

    Boot from the OS dvd and start the install process, but stop immediately after the language selection. (You are not reinstalling.) At this point you will see a Utilities menu. Open Disk Utility, select your start up disk, and click on Repair Disk. When that is done, quit DU and restart.
    See if that procedure will let you boot as usual.
