  • When I turn my MBP on, it makes a whirring and grinding sound for a few seconds (5 secs?) and then boots up normally.  The sound appears to come from the right side, perhaps near/under the button.

    The MBP makes no noise after this.  I can't recall ever dropping it.
    I purchased it in Jan 2011 (so I'm guessing it's a 2010 model?  No idea.  Has black keys & new, slim charger!)
    Happens when I've turned it off and on & when I restart.
    What do you think the problem is most likely to be?
    I've had it over a year now so my Apple warranty is already up.  I got it from John Lewis though, who give you 2 years warranty. 
    Both John Lewis & Apple stores are 1-2 hours away from where I live now.
    Should I  - 
    a) visit the Genius bar and hope they can fix it there and then? What does Genius tend to cost & can it be quick?
    b) take back to John Lewis (and I guess they'll fix it for free under warranty but take a zillion years!)
    c) find a repair shop where I live, who will look at it quicker but may also cost and arm and a leg?
    d) any other suggetions?  Maybe never turn the laptop off again ;-)
    Thanks in advance for any help/advice/tips/solutions!

    OK - more details/info now.
    When I use terminal and type this:
    drutil eject
    I believe the DVD drives makes the odd noise I heard when I booted the laptop up.
    Any thoughts?
    I'm guessing that means my fan/hardrive are actually OK then, and it's probably the mechanism in the DVD drive that is causing problems?
    I'm almost certain there's no DVD stuck in there?

  • While actively using the iPhone 5, Apple logo will randomly appear for a few seconds, then show up at the lock screen

    This is the weirdest thing I've ever seen an iPhone do.  I recently got the iPhone 5 from Verizon, 16GB (if that even matters) running iOS 6.0 respectively.  This has happened 3-5 times since I started using it last Friday when they started to deliver.  When this incident occurs, I'll be using my phone, as in it's unlocked and it's not just sitting.  Then, the Apple logo will appear and if I didn't know any better, I'd think my phone was turning on.  However, it only stays that way for a few seconds until it shows the lock screen, imitaing a startup.  The weird thing is, the startup time is ~30 seconds everytime I turn my device off and turn it back on.  This incident where it'll appear to be just turning on while I'm using the phone will only last for ~5 seconds.  Plus, during the incident, it nevers actually turns off the display or goes completely black.  It'll just snap directly from me using the phone to the Apple logo, then the lock screen after a few seconds.  Also, cellular services are immediately recognized after the incident, when starting up it usually take about 30 seconds.  I can't confirm this or not, but I believe this incident occurs when I press the home button to exit an app.  However, when it happens it strikes me by surprise and I can't confirm or not if this happens only when I'm exiting an app.  Not sure if this is an iPhone 5 specific problem or an iOS 6 problem...I can't really assume it's a bad power connection, since like I said it doesn't imitate a full startup of the phone, it just goes throught the screens (Apple logo -> lock screen.)
    And as a side note, I restart my phone daily.  And as rare of a problem this is, I'm not going to restore or wipe my phone and start fresh.  Just wanted to see if there was anybody else experiencing this problem and to make the problem aware. Thanks in advance for any help!!

    I had this same thing happen to me.  I was using my brand new iphone 5 (texting and listening to music through the speakers) when it flashed the apple logo, stopped my music and brought me to the lock screen. 

  • Ipod touch will not turn on. Did a synch turned on. Then turned off.       and tried to restart. Apple logo came on screen for a few seconds then disappeared and cannot turn back on. This is a new replacement unit. only have had it 4 days.

  • Phone gets hot when listening to music with Walkman app

    during the last days I have recognized that my Xperia Z3 Compact gets very warm (almost hot) when I am listening to music using the Sony Walkman app. 
    I had this issue also with the Xperia Z1 Compact earlier and had to factory reset it to fix it.
    I only face this when I listen to music. do anyone else also have this issue?

    All phones get warmer when using high cpu use apps but if the phones gets to warm then like a Pc etc it will give a warning and auto shut down to protect itself - However if you think it's to hot and you are concerned then I'd advise that you either return your device to the place of purchase or contact Xperia care to have your device inspected http://www.sonymobile.com/global-en/support/contact-us/

  • My iPhone will not power on. When on a charger or plugged into a computer, the apple logo will come on for a few seconds, go off within a second, then come on every minute or so and do it again. This is all without ever actually powering on.

    I have tried all methods of resetting and it still does the same thing. iTunes does not even recognize the phone. Any ideas on the issue?

    Hello Breanneg,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    For more information on this, take a look at:
    iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3281
    If there is no video or if the screen remains black, verify that the device has enough charge to turn on:
    If you are using an iPad, ensure that it's connected to the USB Power Adapter supplied with the device.
    Let it charge for at least twenty minutes, then see if it starts normally.
    If there is no image on the screen, press the Sleep/Wake button to attempt to wake the device.
    If the screen displays a red battery icon, continue charging the device until the battery is fully charged. Learn more about charging iPhone and iPod touch, or iPad.
    If the above steps do not resolve the issue, or the if the screen remains black or shows a persistent Apple logo, try restoring with iTunes:
    Connect the device to your computer and open iTunes.
    If the device appears in iTunes, select and click Restore on the Summary pane. Learn more aboutrestoring iOS software.
    If the device doesn't appear in iTunes, try to force the device into recovery mode, and then restore it.
    Best of luck,
    Mario

  • I have a MacBook Pro with Retina display, when starting up, I see the Apple logo, the bar underneath fills about 1/4 of the way, and then the screen goes black, the mouse cursor is still visible.

    Boots to black in OS X mode (I believe 10.10.2? tough to check right now).  I can boot into Windows 8 using Boot Camp without incident.  I have booted to Disk Utility and run Disk and Permissions Repair.  I have booted into Diagnostics, and no issues were found (ADP000 was the Reference Code given).  I reset the PRAM, which gave a louder chime than I had been getting when failing to start up OS X, but otherwise no change.  Feeling that my options were exhausted, I attempted to restore from Time Capsule, and it won't connect to Time Capsule, despite Time Capsule being the active router whose network I am connected to.  Please advise. 
    (This is my girlfriend's computer, she tells me that she selected an option to perform an automatic update later, that night.)

    Install or Reinstall OS X from Scratch
    Be sure you backup your files to an external drive or second internal drive because the following procedure will remove everything from the hard drive.
    Boot to the Recovery HD:
    Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
    Erase the hard drive:
      1. Select Disk Utility from the main menu and click on the Continue button.
      2. After DU loads select your startup volume (usually Macintosh HD) from the
          left side list. Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
      3. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Optionally, click on
          the Security button and set the Zero Data option to one-pass. Click on
          the Erase button and wait until the process has completed.
      4. Quit DU and return to the main menu.
    Reinstall OS X: Select Reinstall OS X and click on the Install button.
    Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible
               because it is three times faster than wireless.
    This should install the version of OS X that you had installed.
    Be sure you only work on the OS X volume, not your Windows volume. I cannot tell you if you will still be able to boot the Windows volume after the above. You will need to find a fix for that.

    Do you have Creative Cloud subscription?  I don't think Creative Suites are a part of it, though I might be wrong - the individual applications in the suite, yes - the full suite as one item, no.  If you purchased CS6 Master Collection, not the Cloud, then you should be downloading that thru the following page...

  • When I try powering up my phone it stays on the logo screen for a few seconds then turn off, whats wrong with it?

    When I try to power up my iphone 4 32g, it will stay on the apple screen for a few seconds then turn off. even when I try connecting it to my computer it turns on for a few seconds then turns off. Whats wrong with it? and what do I do about it?

    Have you tried charging it with another known working USB sync cable?  After letting it sit to "charge" for at least 30 minutes, have you tried resetting the device by pressing and holding both the Select/Center and Menu buttons together long enough for the Apple logo to appear.

  • Music player locks mobile for a few seconds (Lumia...

    Hello,
    I bought a Lumia 920 one month ago.
    Since first day I'm having problems with music player. When I click to play a song it takes several seconds to update screen, moreover hardware buttons doesn't do anything. After a few seconds mobile starts to work again, and everything seems well. 
    It happens with any application that play music (microsoft, nokia and mine), and with any music file. Same files where working perfectly on a Lumia 800.
    I did a small search  if somebody had similar problems, but I didn't find anybody (¿?).
    Any idea?

    As I said, it happens with all application that play music: nokia music, windows player, and one application that I developing.  I click to play a song, music starts to sound, but mobile gets lock for a few seconds (around 30 seconds!). I tried to click back button, power button, ... doesn't matter mobile is complete lock, after this time, mobile starts to process all clicks (back, power button, ...)

    It doesn't matter what it is in your backup that's causing the problem because you can not selectively restore things from your backup. It's all or nothing.
    Set you phone up as a new device and start over.
