  • White Screen 20" iMac a1224, chimes, boots, screen dims after a while. When mirrored on external display seems fine. Any thoughts?

    Title says it all. 20" iMac a1224 when I start it up it chimes and seems to boot wireless keyboard connected to it and makes noises, wired mouse. Connected display to it and randomly clicked and dragged until I pulled preferences over to external display and set to mirrored. everything "seems" to functioning fine besides built in screen. Not sure what other tests to do, any input would be great.

    OK here is an update.
    iMac 20" 2 GHz Intel Core 2 duo, 2GB 667 MHz ddr2 sdram    serial number - W873688AX85
    I replaced the harddrive - WD caviar blue 500gb SATA III 7200rpm 16mb cache WD5000AAKX
    Installed Mountain Lion 10.8.5 with the iMac display disconnected, (the plug directly to the right of the wireless card), and connected to external display. One partition.
    Did all of the current updates
    Powered off, disconnected power cord, connected internal display, rebooted - still white screen with extended desktop on external display
    Read something about the four green LEDs. With the internal display connected, the fourth LED from the left with the LEDs being on the left of the RAM slot, is on. This LED does not come on when the internal display is disconnected.
    From here I just dont know if its the display or the loic board. Are there any tests I can do to narrow it down?
    I saw that the G5 had problems with capacitors, can this be similar?
    Thanks

    We need to get you moved. This forum is for mini-tower Macs built between 1998 and 2005 and doesn;t get as much traffic ("eyeballs on the problem") as the forums for newer Macs.
    Please do "About this Mac" from you Apple menu and tell us what that says for "processor" and Mac OS version. Looks like this:
    or this for later Mac OS versions:
    With that we can figure out which of the two iMac forums you need and get the Hosts to move your post.

    Have the PRAM battery looked at.  It may be all that is needed.

  • MacBook Pro can turn on and off, but does not start up. Stays on white screen with flashing folder icon, does not go to desktop.

    MacBook Pro is not starting up. It just stays on a white screen with a flashing folder icon. Have tried restarting while holding the Option key, and the cursor becomes visible and movable, but it does not go to the desktop.

    Hello Sonya_Rose,
    I found this article when researching the issue you describe here named A flashing question mark appears when you start your Mac found http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1440.
    Check the mouse and keyboard
    This issue might occur if a mouse or trackpad button is pressed during startup. Make sure the button isn't pressed.
    If the issue persists, shut down your Mac with its power button, disconnect any external mouse and keyboard, then turn on your Mac with its power button. If the flashing question mark issue persists, reconnect the keyboard and mouse.
    Additional steps
    If your Mac still starts to a flashing question mark, follow the steps below. If any step resolves the issue, you don't need to continue to the next one.
    Select your Mac OS X startup disk with Startup Manager by restarting and holding the Option key. After your Mac starts up, restart again to verify that the flashing question mark does not appear.
    If the issue persists, insert your Mac OS X installation disc. Be sure to either use the disc that came with your Mac, or, if you installed a later Mac OS X version from disc, use the newer disc.
    MacBook Air note: On a MacBook Air, there are two options for starting up from Mac OS X media: Either connect a MacBook Air SuperDrive to the MacBook Air via the USB port and restart the computer, holding down the C key during startup, or use Remote Install Mac OS X to startup from a system software DVD that's located on a partner computer. Once started up from Mac OS X media, skip to step 3.
    Restart the computer, then hold the C key during startup.
    From the Utilities menu, choose Disk Utility. Don't click Continue.
    Select your Mac OS X disk (named "Macintosh HD" by default) in the left side of the Disk Utility window.
    Click the First Aid tab.
    Click Repair Disk to verify and repair any issues with your Mac OS X startup disk.
    After repairing the disk, try to start up normally.
    Important: If Disk Utility finds issues it cannot repair, you may need to back up as much of your data as possible (or use Time Machine to back up to a different disk), then erase the disk and reinstall Mac OS X. You should back up important files and data before erasing a drive. Erasing deletes everything on the hard disk (including things on your desktop). Also, you can install Mac OS X onto an external disk, start from the external disk, and use Migration Assistant to transfer items from your usual internal Mac OS X startup disk to the external disk, then erase the internal disk and reinstall Mac OS X.
    If the issue persists, and Disk Utility didn't find any irreparable issues, quit Disk Utility, quit the Installer, select your disk when prompted, and restart.
    If the issue continues, reset PRAM. Note: After resetting PRAM, if the computer starts up normally, reselect the startup disk in the Startup Disk preferences.
    If none of these steps resolve the issue, start up from the Mac OS X Installation disc and reinstall Mac OS X.
    Regards,
    Sterling

    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.
    When the menubar appears select Terminal from the Utilities menu. Enter resetpassword at the prompt and press RETURN. Follow instructions in the dialog window that will appear.

  • RE: Rentals - Desktop to ATV = white screen ??

    Hi
    I rented a film onto my desk top and then transferred the film to ATV. ATV recognised the film and I made sure it had fully transferred from desktop to ATV before attempting to play. The film showed in rented movies on ATV and when I played it, It gave me the options of resume or play from start. Then when the film came on screen it had the widescreen view (i.e. letterbox) but with just a white screen beyond with no sound or image. When I scrolled through the film (pressing right on remote) some faint text appeared above timeline that changed with each click to the right - presumably showing scene title of the film as it was quite random text titles.
    I'm confused as never had problem before, apple tv and itunes on desktop are up to date, accounts are authorised? It seems odd that ATV recognised everything and even began to play what looked like a film - just no sound or images
    I contacted support and they allowed me to download it twice again therefore resetting the time to watch but when transferring the same problem occurred. Plays fine on desktop. Apple support also refunded me which was good of them.
    Now since it has in the past worked ( I think even since I updated apple tv recently) I figured I would try again with a different rental before phoning support or doing anything like a restore to default on apple tv. However thought I'd see if anyone had had a similar problem?
    Any advice much appreciated. Thanks

    On your invoice you will see a link to "report a problem". Email them the problem and they should sort you out. They didn't help me much on a technical level but they allowed me to re-download it a few times to try and get it to work. In the end they refunded me and then gave me five free song downloads for the inconvenience. Presumably you tried to re-set the ATV ?

    Hi, likely neither.
    What shows for boot choices if you hold alt or option key on startup?
    Bootup holding CMD+r, or the Option/alt key to boot from the Restore partition & use Disk Utility from there to Repair the Disk, then Repair Permissions.

  • IMac 21.5 inch mid 2011 white screen when I wake it,  holding down mouse button and sweeping the screen restores the desktop.  Any one else had this and what was the solution?

    When the Mac is awaken from sleep mode the screen is white.  I can hold the mouse button down and sweep the screen and the desktop reappears and everything works as normal..This just started and I am concerned that some hardware, video card or video memory is failing.  Has anyone else had this problem and what was the solution?

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, or by a peripheral device. 
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem.  Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Post for further instructions.
    Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including wireless networking on certain Macs. The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
    The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin. Test while in safe mode. Same problem? After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

    Hey Mari_43,
    Welcome to the BlackBerry Support Community Forums.
    Thanks for the question.
    Since the white screen is still occuring after a reload of the device software, I suggest contacting your network service provider for repair options.
    Let me know if you have any more questions.
    Cheers.

  • White Screen and mouse movement reveals desktop

    Occaisionally when my iMac awakes from screensaver and/or sleeping all I see is a white screen.  When I move the mouse or use the trackpad the cursor reveals swatches of my desktop.  The desktop still functions once I can see where to click.  Any ideas on what causes this or how to fix it?

  • I am working on a Veterans Day program for school and I shut down the computer and now I can't get the desktop to load.  It is all a white screen.  What do I need to do, and can I get my video back?

    I am having difficulty getting back on my computer.  I have to have the Veterans Day Program done by next Monday, and it will not boot back up.  All I get is a white screen.  If I push Options and F4 I can get system preferences, but that doesn't seem to do any good.  It was telling me before I shut it down that my Start up menu was full?  What does that mean, and would that be my problem, and how would I fix it?  I would appreciate all the help I can get, I haven't saved anything yet that I was creating.  I have videos of the student singing that I will not be able to do over again.  Please Help!!!
