When shutting down shows black screen and grey spinning weel and is slow

i just bought my macbook air a week ago and at first it shut down real quick but now it takes about 20-30 seconds and shows a black screen with a white/grey spinning weel/circle before it turns off.
also my safari is running slow and i use barely nothing only safari, spotify, word and agenda.
thanks for the help
macbook air 13 inch 1.4ghz i think and 128 GB 2014 i think

The warranty entitles you to complimentary phone support for the first 90 days of ownership.
If you bought the product in the U.S. directly from Apple (not from a reseller), you have 14 days from the date of delivery in which to exchange or return it for a refund. In other countries, the return policy may be different. If you bought from a reseller, its return policy applies.

Lion shutting down to black screen +

OK there are many problems - the first just started today Xmas day my imac bought almost exactly a year ago is shutting down to black screen after about 5 mins use - I had this mac repaired in November and got it back with a clean install of Lion 10.7.2 (cos I had already bought it) - I created a partition and installed Snow Leopard on the smaller partition
Mac and Lion were working really well until today when Lion just refuses to run for more than 5 mins without black screen crash
If i start in the Snow Leopard partition there are no problems whatsoever so Im wary about swapping out RAM and motherboard solutions ....
I repaired what I could using disk utility when Lion was up no problems reported before next black screen crash
However I tried to reboot into recovery disk and found it does not exist! I tried to mount a downloaded disk recovery utility which I got from Apple but it said something like disk recovery doesn't exist cannot create disk recovery
any thoughts folks I don't see this as a hardware prob otherwise why would my SN partition be working perfectly? I'm happy just to stick with SN but I like to keep up to date and Lion should be usable and better

No replies on this? I still have same problem and am confined to SL 10.6.4 I'm even wary of upgrading this to later SL versions because it is very stable

My iPhone 3GS on iOS 5.1 will randomly stop what I'm doing show a black screen then the spinning icon and then it shows my lockscreen. It takes about a minute to do this and it does it about 30 times a day. How do I fix this?

No, sounds like when you dropped it an cracked the screen it may have also damaged the logic board or the repair person damaged a cable.

I have already tried power drain out method.but on the next go same problems arises.what to do.

Hi Anish1,
Welcome to the Forums
As per the query we understood that you are facing issue with black screen in your Lenovo G510 laptop.
As you have mentioned that black screen when turned on, can you hear the windows login sound?
Remove the battery and connect only adapter and check for the issue also connect only battery and check for the issue.
Connect an external monitor and check if the display appears in the external monitor then its a issue with the LCD, if there is no display in the external monitor then it might be issue with the motherboard, hence suggest you to visit the nearest authorised service centre.
Click here for the service centre and select your region.

Satellite A100-646 and external monitor shows black screen

Hello to everybody,
I have a similar problem with A100-646 (bought in Italy). Laptop's LCD and external monitor shows black screen but system boots without other problem. When laptop is not used for a long time (half a year) it work for one week without any problem.
Unfortunately, there is no proper service in a place where I live. Perhaps, there is a problem with power supply.
Is there other idea? Does anybody have a service manual? ([email protected])

It is not easy to find shop where you can order original and new hardware components.
Best source for such parts is definitely eBay where you can buy used but well working components.
Upgrade? You must know that upgrade on mobile computers is not the same as on desktops. Cooling possibilities are not the best and each notebook model has optimized cooling system for original parts. So new graphic card can be more powerful and produce more heat and it is definitely not good for your notebook. So best thing you can do is to replace it with original part.

HT1937 I have installed an app : Birdfield guide in my iPhone 4. But the app is not working after installation. It shows black screen when opened

I have installed an app : Birdfield guide in my iPhone 4. But the app is not working after installation. It shows black screen when opened. I need suggestions to make it work or the reasons for not working.

Yes TeeKnows, try deleting it and download it again. After finished installation if still shows black screen delete it out off 'running apps' by double tapping the home button and swipe it off. If still shows black screen then try fully turning off your iPad (holding the sleep button) and turn back on again.
I hope I helped
thanks

Just upgraded my iPad to IOS5 and when the download was completed, a window said that there was an error and it could not restore. Now I have a black screen with the Apple logo and the circle lines. None of the buttons respond. Help, please!!

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 - let go of the buttons. Maybe this will let the iPad reboot and then you may need to restore again but see if this helps to start the iPad first.

White screen flash when shutting down after a suspend

If I have suspended my laptop at any time during its uptime, when shutting down the screen flashes white, but it turns off as usual. This only happens if I have suspened.
There are no issues as far as I can tell, I see nothing much in journalctl when comparing a suspeded shutdown vs no suspend.
Im using nouveau, and I'm up-to-date as of now.
Google hasnt returned much,
Anyone else seeing this?

Create a new account, name it "test" and see how your apps work in that User acct? (That will tell if your problem is systemwide or limited to your User acct.) This account is just for test, do nothing further with it.
Open System Preferences >> Accounts >> "+" make it an admin account.
If the problem is present in the test account also, then it is systemwide. In this case try repairing this with the 10.5.2 Combo Update This is a fuller install, as opposed to an incremental "delta" update so it should overwrite any files that are damaged or missing. It does not matter if you have applied it before.
Remember to Verify Disk before update and repair permissions after update from /Applications/Utilities/Disk Utility.
If the problem does not appear in the test account try starting in "Safe Mode" (It will take a bit more time to startup because it runs a directory check first).
If that works go to System Preferences >> Accounts >> Login Items and remove them. Boot normally and test. If there are still problems, go to ~(yourHome)/Library/Contextual Menu Items and move whatever is there to the desktop. Then do the same with /Library/Contextual Menu Items. Lastly, try moving /Users/Home)/Library/Fonts to your desktop and restarting.
Log out/in or restart, if that sorts it start putting items back one at a time until you find the culprit.
Let us know.

I am connected to the internet but when i get on my screen is grey and I can't do anything.

I am connected to the internet but when click in safari my screen is grey. I can't clidk on anything nor can I get to another page. What can I do to reset it?
I have tried disabeling my internet and reconnecting but that does not seem to help.

Hi,
It's actually what appears immediately to the right of the word "iPad" that you need to look for. If all you see is the word iPad and no other symbols, then you do not have a data connection to the internet.
If your iPad is a 3G model (withna sim card), you should have a number of connectivity symbols which could be displayed (depending on connection strength). If your iPad is a Wi-Fi only model, you would see the wi-fi symbols appearing indicating wireless connection strength.
Check you are connected to a wi-fi network correctly by launching the settings app and tapping Wi-Fi (near the top of the options which appear), then selecting the appropriate wi fi network which appears on the right.
This article provides some more info and also shows the symbols you should see:
