Hello, ArantxaR.  
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
Here is an article that I would recommend going through when experiencing this issue.
Your computer cannot wake from sleep
Make sure your computer isn't powered off by pressing the power key for one second.
If you're using an external display, make sure your display is not powered off or unplugged.
If you are using a Mac notebook:
Make sure the computer's battery is charged. Try connecting the power adapter to the computer, then press the power button for one second to see if the computer powers on.
Make sure the AC power cord is connected securely to the power outlet, and that the outlet it is working correctly. Confirm the power adapter or cable is attached firmly.
If your computer is plugged into a power strip, make sure the power strip is not turned off. Check to make sure other items connected to the power strip are receiving power.
Confirm the right power adapter is connected on Mac notebook computers. If a lower wattage power adapter is used than the one that came with your Mac, it may not provide enough power to charge the battery while the computer is powered on. Make sure there is no debris in the MagSafe port that might prevent charging. When your MagSafe cable is connected properly, you should see a green or orange light on the connector.
If you are using a Mac desktop:
Make sure the AC power cord is connected securely to the computer and outlet.
Make sure the AC power outlet it is connected to is working properly.
If your computer is plugged into a power strip, make sure the power strip is not turned off. Check to make sure other items connected to the power strip are receiving power.
Your computer is slow to wake from sleep
If you see a progress bar when you wake your computer from sleep, this is normal. The computer is waking from safe sleep.

  • When iBooks has a problem connecting to a wifi network, it hangs and the page goes blank

    i use the books I have in iBooks as study aids, a lot. I find that when I am in the vicinity of a new or busy wifi network that the page or bookshelf just goes blank, I have to switch wifi off and restart the app, then it works again. It is most annoying though.

    Reboot router, make sure it's up to date. If on wifi try ethernet. Make sure DNS is set to automatic (settings - general - network).

  • What happens when your iphone 4s is glitched, as in it won't work? The screen is blue and black and you cannot see the lockscreen?

    Okay, so my friend accidently hit my iPhone out of my hand and it landed on its screen when it fell. I was wondering if Apple could repair it? The screen is all glitchy, you can only see a huge blue streak with a black background. You can't see the "need to be charged" symbol. Does this happen usually? I'm really worried because I do not want to waste money and buy another phone. Anyone know any trouble shooting or things I could do that might work to get the screen back to the way it was?

    Hello 23435,
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
    I understand that your iPhone was knocked out of your hand and now it displays blue and black colors on the display. It does sound like this iPhone may need to be evaluated for service. If you would like more information about this process, please refer to the attached web link below.

  • HT201177 When I turn my computer on, I can hear it starting up but the screen stays black.  Anyone know how to fix this?

    When I start up my compute, I can hear it starting up but the screen stays black.  Has anyone else had this problem and found a fix?

    If you press the caps lock key does it light up? If it does then this indicates that your system is booting but the display is either not recognized, is not displaying any video, or the display is displaying video but the backlight system is not lighting up. As long as you've tried turning up the brightness then there is not much you can do other than take it in for a diagnosis. If you have a very bright flashlight you can turn on the iMac and then shine the flashlight onto various areas of the iMac display to see if you can see any faint images on the display. If you do then this indicates that the display is displaying the image, but the backlight is not turning on for some reason. It doesn't change the outcome, but at least you can assist the technician who is troubleshooting your iMac.
    Please let us know what you find out.

    my mac air died, after i reinstall from dvd drive, when i boot up again, i saw a prohibit sign showing up on the screen, then get to my logon screen.  After logon, it takes very long time to load any application.  pls help

    OK. If you believe that.
    When the disk is starting to die it can be bad for a moment and then be good for a while. If there was no problem while you were checking it of course it shows up good.
    I tell you those are the signs of a disk that is about to die.

    I bought the Tiger woods 12 game for my ipad and also paid the 19.99 for the $2M. It has crashed my ipad a few times and when it restarted last time, it had no history of my progress or the $2M. How do I get my history back or my money back for the game and the in-game expenses?

    The only one that can issue a PUK code is a carrier, which you've already made clear you don't have.
    If itunes does not recognise your ipad that may be another issue. What version OS is on your computer and what steps did you follow to uninstall itunes and then reiinstall itunes on your computer?
    And, do you at least see the sidebar on the left hand side of itunes?

    when I sign in to hotmail, my emails appear then I have errors and the page goes blank. Any help ? I'm on OS X 10.5.8
    Sorry should have said, when I log in my emails pop up momentarily. Then, it seems as if the pages aren't loading. A message comes up on the bottom left that the pages are loading, then errors occur and nothing happens.
    Thanks

  • "Contacting the server for information. Press ESC to cancel." in Excel when opening

    I havea user that when she open an Excel file that is older format 97-2003 it just says "Contacting the server for information. Press ESC to cancel." in the status bar then it hangs.  If she press esc about 20 times she get to see the
    document but then Excel just hangs and is unresponsive. I dont know if the documents have some connection to template but the user says they dont. Is there any way to disable this behavior ?
    I have searched everywhere for a solution but everything is about Word or Outlook and none of those can be applied to Excel.

    We had the same issue, however counting for all Office applications including Access.
    Thus, something told me this couldn't be application specific, which ruled out the dozens of suggestions you can browse to solve this issue, including removing of printer drivers, Share Point access (we have no SP running), plug-ins, malformed normal.dot,
    wrong Registry entries, etc. Antivirus and firewall had also temporarily been disabled with no change.
    Also, network shares were marked as "safe" and included as trusted locations.
    What pointed to the solution was this:
    1. When a trusted location was added in, say, Word, the path, say, T:\Documents was automatically changed to the shared path of our DFS file servers:
    \\ourdomain.local\data\department\data\document
    2. When I logged in with my Domain Admin account, the issue did not exist.
    Thus, it had to do with permissions.
    Users had full rights to the network share, here T:\Documents.
    They also had read/write rights to the DFS _share_. However, they had no Active Directory rights to the root of DFS, \\ourdomain.local
    Adding Domain Users with browse and read rights to
    \\ourdomain.local solved the issue at once.

  • When  i enter a preset the image goes blank

    when i enter a preset the image goes blank
    when i try any adjustment nothing happens to the image

    There are several possible causes for the Black Screen issue
    1. Permissions in the Library: Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Include the option to check and repair permissions.
    2. Minor Database corruption: Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild.
    3. A Damaged Photo: Select one of the affected photos in the iPhoto Window and right click on it. From the resulting menu select 'Show File (or 'Show Original File' if that's available). (On iPhoto 11 this option is under the File -> Reveal in Finder.) Will the file open in Preview? If not then the file is damaged. Time to restore from your back up.
    4. A corrupted iPhoto Cache: Trash the com.apple.iPhoto folder from HD/Users/Your Name/Library/ Caches...
    5. A corrupted preference file: Trash the com.apple.iPhoto.plist file from the HD/Users/ Your Name / library / preferences folder. (Remember you'll need to reset your User options afterwards. These include minor settings like the window colour and so on. Note: If you've moved your library you'll need to point iPhoto at it again.)
    If none of these help:
    As a Test:
    Hold down the option (or alt) key key and launch iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Create Library'
    Import a few pics into this new, blank library. Is the Problem repeated there?

  • When I search for an artist in itunes, the songs will pop up and then the page goes blank?

    When I search for an artist in itunes, the songs pop up briefly, but once the page loads completely, the page goes blank.

    I'm having the same difficulty.  I'm running Windows Vista with iTunes 9.0.3.15.  iTunes opens up just fine and I can get to the Store's homepage, but when I try and search for a song, the results just flash on the page for 2 seconds and then it's all gone....I'm left with one big, empty box.  If I'm quick, sometimes I can click on a random song and I can hear the sample played, but then it's gone again while the song is playing.
    Guess I won't be buying anything more from iTunes...
    Tried to ask about this problem here:  http://www.apple.com/ca/support/itunes/contact.html
    I'll post any response I receive.
    Maybe you can try contacting them too to see what they have to say?

  • TS1368 When I open iTunes store the page goes blank on my MacBook

    When I open iTunes store it shows the loading bar, it goes to about half and then the page goes blank and I can do nothing but go back to my library. What can I do?

    All software has bugs. Try closing the Camera app via the phone's taskbar and do a soft-reset of your phone, and/or update to the iOS 8.2 which was released yesterday).
    Closing an app : Force an app to close in iOS - Apple Support
    Soft-reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the equivalent of a reboot.
