White Screen After Shutdown? Macbook will not shut off!

Hello All,
Hopefully someone can help me out, please! Just restarted my Macbook using solo safe because i was getting "the white screen of death." Thought I fried it after it encountered a little water spill...not the case. I got it up and running again...but my only issue is, when i shut down my Macbook...the screen and the apple logo behind it remains lit. It will continue to charge and when I want to power on will turn on. Any mystery to why the laptop won't fully shut down? We left it uncharged overnight thinking it was a fried logic board so could the low charge have something to do with it?

How much water and what did you do to dry it out?
Did you power up before it was dried out?

  • Improperly disconnected ipod nano now screen is blank, and will not shut off.

    I accidently unplugged iPod Nano (second generation) improperly; now the screen is blank and will not shut down.

    Have you tried a hard reset yet? To do this, first make sure the hold switch has not been activated, then press and hold both the Select (Center) and Menu buttons together long enough for the Apple logo to appear.  This may take a couple of tries.
    Otherwise, wait for the iPod's battery to fully drain. Then connect it to a power source charge up as normal. It might be necessary to restore the Nano via iTunes after that as there may be corrupt files still leftover from improperly ejecting the iPod.

  • MSI z77A-G43 - After Shutdown - Fans will not turn off

    Just installed a new MSI Z77A-G43 Motherboard for my husband since his old motherboard died. The one thing I've noticed though is that the fans will not turn off after I do a shutdown and I'd have to do a manual shut down instead. Any ideas what could be happening? Also it will randomly restart when not shutdown completely with the fans still on.
    Here are the specs of the PC.
    MOBO: Z77A-G43
    Processor: Intel i5 - 2500k Quad Core
    Video Card: Geforce - GT 610
    Ram: 8 Gigs
    Hard Drive - 128gb ssd and 1.5 tb hdd
    It's really barebones since I'm trying to just get it to run then get it back to normal working order with the next pay check
    EDIT!!!!::
    Forgot OS is Window 7 Ultimate X64

    If you are sure that your CPU is seated properly and that the PWM fan connector is seated correctly, then you may want to test with another known working PSU. I am not saying that your PSU is faulty, but before exhanging the board, I would definitely test that as well.
    EDIT: Just a question, did you disconnect the power switch and the other front panel connectors of your case and started the PC by shorting the Power switch [pins 6 and 8 on JFP 1]with a screw driver tip ? The remote possibility exits that the cables may have been connected incorrectly or may have a short.

  • Restarted my MacBook Air, just have a white screen with apple . Will not start up

    Restarted my MacBook Air, just have a white screen with apple . Will not start

    What version MacBook Air do you have?  Usually identified by the year you bought it, i.e. mid-year 2012, 2011, etc.  Also, what OSX are you running?  (please provide OSX ver number, i.e. 10.8.2 for latest Mountain Lion, etc.)
    Not sure I can help you directly but for others to lend a hand, they'll need to know this information to make a sound suggestion.  I see you're new to posting here so this will help you in the future.
    Good luck.

    I-PHONE 4 FROZE AFTER AN UPDATE, WILL NOT SHUT DOWN AND SENDS ALL CALLS TO VOICEMAIL, IS THERE ANYTHING I CAN DO?

    Unplug it and let unit go dead. Then hold your Home button down and plug the USB power cord back in. iTunes should see it and then restore.

  • MacBook will not Shut Down or Restart

    My MacBook will not shut down or restart from the apple menu, nor from any other dialog box that pops up, after an update, for instance. The only way I can turn it off/restart is by using the power button. I have tried archiving and installing OS X, but I am still having this problem. Does anybody know how to fix this?

    Hi Henry,
    Help here: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=303319
    Second, make sure you have all your updates. Click the Apple logo in the Menu then click Software Updates.
    Reset PRAM by holding option-command-P-R keys down during startup until you hear the chime at least three or four times.
    Resetting the PRAM is a standard procedure for the problem you are experiencing.
    Also, run Disk Utility and Repair Disk Permissions. DU is located here:
    Applications/Utilities. Launch DU, select MacintoshHD in the panel on the left, then click Repair Disk Permissions. Quit DU and reboot.
    If you need further assistance, please post back.

  • My ipod touch will not shut off. lock up

    My ipod touch will not shut off. It is just a black screen with the time dial turning. It does not do anything. How can I get it to do something?

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try on another computer          
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

    May be coincidental, but it did not start until after 7.1.1 update.
