White battery logo with question mark screen - can't get into usb mode (and now black screen)

I noticed that my hp touchpad was shutting down while in standby. I imagined it was a autoupgrade and so when it booted up and started installing the new webos I panicked and hit the power and home buttons to prevent the upgrade because I have CM7 alpha 3.5.
When I booted it up again I could only see a battery icon with a question mark in the middle. I can't make my win7 pc recognize the tablet and nor does the hp doctor for the same reason.
Does anyone have a clue how I can fix this? I know that some people in the past had this same issue that was caused by faulty usb cable or not having the battery correctly inserted (for other webos devices) but this is not the case. Just before I canceled the upgrade I had 20% battery and I had it plugged in and charging.
After letting the battery empty itself out I charged it overnight and now I have no response from it. Even after pressing the home and power buttons for minutes.
Thanks.

I agree on the updates, I wish it wasn't automatic. I completely, totally agree.
Keep in mind, you can't complain about having CM7 messed up from webOS updates. CM7 is not supported on this hardware by HP. CM7 is all on you.
There was no webOS upgrade in your case. The upgrade was stopped midstream, possibly damaging the TouchPad.
I asked 'why did you do that', because I actually want to know why in the world anyone would ever stop a firmware upgrade. It's like teasing a crocodile with chicken meat and wondering why it bit your hand off. You seem to know your way around technology, so I can't understand why you'd stop a firmware upgrade. I'm sure you know how dangerous that is. I did, in fact, provide a constructive suggestion. But not a solution, because I don't know of one. I haven't run across anyone who stopped their TP's upgrade process midstream. I am sure it's happened before somewhere, I just don't know about it.

Quicktime logo with question mark appears instead of flash content

since updating my system yesterday to OS x 10.4.11 i have been unable to view flash content with _all browsers_. *Quicktime logo with question mark* appears instead. Spent 4 hours trying every fix suggested by Mac forums worldwide - with no result. Took the computer to the apple store where they actually took 60 euros off me for NOT fixing the problem. Still cannot view any flash content. Any help would be appreciated

These are the downloads and the settings you need in order to view/hear pretty much everything that the net can throw at you: The setup described below has proved repeatedly successful on both PPC and Intel macs, but nothing in life carries a guarantee!
It is known to work in the great majority of cases with Safari 3.0.4, QT 7.3 and OS 10.4.11.
Assuming you already run Tiger versions OS 10.4.9 or above (this has not yet been verified with Leopard) and have Quicktime 7.2 or above, and are using Safari 2 or 3, download and install (or re-install even if you already had them) the latest versions, suitable for your flavor of Mac, of:
RealPlayer 10 for Mac from http://forms.real.com/real/player/blackjack.html?platform2=Mac%20OS%20X&product= RealPlayer%2010&proc=g3&lang=&show_list=0&src=macjack
Flip4Mac WMV Player from http://www.microsoft.com/windows/windowsmedia/player/wmcomponents.mspx (Windows Media Player for the Mac is no longer supported, even by Microsoft)
Perian from http://perian.org/
Adobe FlashPlayer from http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/download/download.cgi?P1ProdVersion=ShockwaveFlash
(You can check here: http://www.adobe.com/products/flash/about/ to see which version you should install for your Mac and OS.)
In Quicktime Preferences, under advanced, UNcheck Enable Flash, and under Mime settings/Miscellananeous only check Quicktime HTML (QHTM).
In Macintosh HD/Library/Quicktime/ delete any files relating to DivX (Perian already has them).
Now go to Safari Preferences/Security, and tick the boxes under Web Content (all 4 of them).
Lastly open Audio Midi Setup (which you will find in the Utilities Folder of your Applications Folder) and click on Audio Devices. Make sure that both Audio Input and Audio Output, under Format, are set to 44100 Hz.
Important: Now repair permissions and restart.
The world should now be your oyster!

Hold down the Option key while you boot your Mac. Then, it should show you a selection of devices. Click your flash drive and it will boot from that.

Can't get into BIOS mode

** i also put this question in O.P. topic, because i think that was the wrong one**
1. Type of computer - HP ENVY dv7-7250nr
2. opporating system- windows 8 64bit
I recently got this computer. It's amazing the only thing that could use a change is the keyboard. I got this as a gaming PC but the function keys can only be accesed when pressing FN. In most computer games the f# keys are your shortcuts. When i go to press mine i have windows changed and the control panal pops up.
So i was looking around and they say you can go into BIOS mode and turn off the hotkeys. Only issue is i can't get into BIOS mode.
I would really appreciate some help on this, i don't want to go out and key a whole-nother keyboard.
Thank you in advance.

Princess.
Turn on the laptop then tap f10.
That should get you into the BIOS.

Go elsewhere:
Jailbreaking voids the Apple warranty and also means that you will not get any support from Apple, including from this Apple forum. Jailbreaking can't be discussed in this Apple forum.

When you add a WiFi you can't get into any websites??? But if you turn WiFi off you can access websites?
You can access websites without WiFi? Do you have a 3G/4G iPad?

Can't get into Restore Mode to get rid of Genieo

I somehow downloaded "Genieo" onto my computer and can't get it off. I search my computer everywhere for it and it doesn't seem to be on my computer anywhere.
I had the idea of restoring my entire computer to an earlier date (before "Genieo" got on my computer). I have Time Machine and back up constantly. However, when I restart my computer, hold down Command R, it doesn't reboot to Recovery mode. I read somewhere that in order to go there, I have to have a back-up or another way to boot (or something like that...not too sure what I read or what it said).
Is there another way to Restore my entire computer to an earlier date than Recovery mode? Or is there another way to get into Recovery mode because Command R isn't working for me? Or is there another way to get ride of Genieo? I saw a discussion about it and someone wrote about getting rid of it, but it seemed pretty complicated. Is restoring my computer to an earlier date the way to go?
Thanks for your help! I have OSX 10.9.4 installed on my computer.

TS1440 Mac on start-up becomes a white screen with a blinking file folder with question mark. Can't log in or get on computer.

Please help, other forum from 2011 didn't help. Can't get info because I can't log in.

See this Apple note, which applies to OS X 10.7 Lion as well. This Apple note applies to OS X 10.6 and earlier but provides a little more information. When they talk about booting from CD, that's a boot with command and r keys held down in OS X 10.7 Lion.

I appears on the screen when you turn a folder with question mark that can not do

Finder with question mark

Shut down your Mac by holding down the power button until the screen goes black.
Then startup while holding down the Option key.
if the disk is ok, at some point you should see the Startup Manager window where you can select the startup disk then restart.
A flashing question mark appears when you start your Mac

QT logo with Question Mark and Blank screen sound ok on training videos

I suddenly had all sort of problems (before 10.4.9) with QT logo and Question Marks throughout all browsers and also suddenly unable to continue training programs using files such as "avibasicmono.htm" and "introbasicmono.htm" .
finally think I have solved the QT logo by replacing Flash 9.0 with the old 8.022.
I could now also see current issues of magazines again on a site www.picturebusiness.uk.com (weird naming).
however I am not able to see the training videos at all but I hear the AVI files
Macosx 10.4.9 Quicktime 7.1.3 (removed 7.1.5 to try that option did not work)
will stay with what works until I hear more...

www.picturebusiness.uk.com uses Flash Media.
Tell us more info about the AVI's. Are they found at that Site?
Give us a link.

Audio: Quicktime Logo with Question Mark Appears

When attempting to listen to an audio file linked on a web page, I get a new screen with the Quicktime logo superimposed by a question mark and a dialogue box offering to take me to a page of Quicktime components. (http://www.apple.com/quicktime/resources/components.html?os=OSX&ctype=73646563&c subtype=6d730022) And then it just leaves me there with no guidance. What components are the ones I need to play this audio clip? This page, or the script (?) that kicks in when I attempt to play an audio file that needs additional components, is so frustrating. I wish it told me what component is missing. I have read thru the descriptions and downloaded some of the components that seem like they might have something to do with playing an audio file, but still, the file does not play, still the **** logo with the question mark. I have QT 7.5 on a brand new iMac. I have played audio files just previously on the same website. Anybody have any advice on what component is needed or how I find that out?

Hmmm, that didn't help. As I continue through the pages of the website, I find that it is only one audio clip that is not working so far. BTW, this website seems super-antiquated and badly put together, so perhaps it's a problem with the website.

Quick Time Logo with Question Mark

I have an iMac and my QuickTime doesn't work. It comes up with a question mark in the middle of the blue 'Q' logo. What am I to do?

Dear Boomer,
1. Why is it when I quote your original with all the bells and whistles it looks like this?
2. Is it a classic vs mac cat difference?
3. Is it your learned self vs my newbieness?
4. Is it my little olde blueberry slot CRT?
5. am I just unworthy...hangs head and cries.
All the best,
Irene
gwyzzzz,
To The Apple Discussion Boards!
QuickTimeKirk did provide a straight answer to the
original poster's question. Apparently you need more
detailed instructions, so here it
is..........
At the top right of this site you will see Search
Discussions.
In the blank search window w/the magnifying glass in
the left corner type Quicktime and
question mark.
You will then find several troubleshooting solutions
pertaining to your issue for you to try out.
Since this particular question is posted hundreds of
times, there will be possibly thousands of
different solutions to filter through in your search.
Hopefully, you will find the right one just in time
before going to your place in France.
Good luck!
P.S. I do not own any Apple Stock. Wish I did jump
on it before the price shot up.
