Why does the apple icon come on then off then a white screen appears?

Why does the apple icon come on then off then a white screen appears? 

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iPod fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- If still not successful that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • Hi can anyone help with a mac that had magnet put on it. I turned it on and then off but a white screen appears with a file with a question mark on it?

    Hi can anyone help with a mac that had magnet put on it. I turned it on and then off but a white screen appears with a file with a question mark on it?

    File icon with ? mark on it means it can't read from the hard drive. The hard drive is now wiped or bad. If just wiped then you will need to reinstall your operating system, OS X. If bad you will need to replace the drive.
    Start with booting the computer from the OS X install DVD that came with your system. If the Mac came with Lion Pre-Installed then you use the Lion internet recovery system to reinstall (Hold down Command+r keys or Command+Option+r keys to boot the computer from over the internet to the Lion recovery HD system).
    Good Luck.

  • Why does the Apple logo come up during the Visualizer?

    You know how trippy the Visualizer can be? Well, it's bloody annoying to have the Apple logo reappear every few minutes. This didn't happen with older versions of iTunes. Can the logo be prevented from appearing? What's the point when I know I'm using a Mac and I know Apple made the Visualizer? Do we need what is really an ad during the Visualizer? C'mon Apple, let us just enjoy the Visualizer without the logo, please.

    Do you have any 3rd party add-ons affecting the Visulaizer?
    For me, the Apple logo only appears at the outset when the visualizer is activated. Baring any 3rd party affects, you may have corruption in one or more of iTunes preferences files. Have you tried iTunes from another User Account to see if the problem shows up there too? If it doesn't, then I'd move the 3 iTunes preferences to the desktop from your User Account/Library/Preferences folder (look for com.apple.itunes.xxxx.plist where xxxx= a specific iTunes name). Then, restart iTunes. If the problem goes away, you'll need to reestablish your custom preferences.

    l have an apple tv  2 generation please help me

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    If your problem persists get yourself a micro USB cable (sold separately), you can restore your Apple TV from iTunes:
    Remove ALL cables from Apple TV. (if you don't you will not see Apple TV in the iTunes Source list)
    Connect the micro USB cable to the Apple TV and to your computer.
    Reconnect the power cable (only for Apple TV 3)
    Open iTunes.
    Select your Apple TV in the Devices list, and then click Restore.
    (You may already have a micro USB cable if you have a camera or other digital device)

  • Iphone 4 will not start up...the apple icon comes on and then goes off and then comes on and goes off again continuously....any ideas?

    Iphone 4 will not start up....the apple icon comes on and then goes off and then comes on and then goes off continuously....any ideas?

    1. Try doing a hard reset:
    Press and hold both the Home button and the Sleep/wake button simultaneously for about 15 seconds and release when the Apple logo appears.
    2. If that doesn't solve it, use: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808
    Using this article will erase everything on the device, so make sure you have a backup!
    If you get specific error messages/codes in iTunes when updating/restoring, check this: http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3694 for causes and solutions
    Good luck

    Why does the Apple tv light come on when I am not using it?

  • Why does the EEvents message come up every time the computer is opened after being shut off?

    Why does the EEvents message come up every time the computer is opened after being shut off?

    You need to check the software you run.
    Some officially supported and sold Mac versions of software use Wine for porting in some fashion or another.  If some program you are running is spawning these Wine processes, its probably buggy and not shutting down correctly.
    How to figure out which are Wine and which are not...?
    Well if its a Cider ported game, you just see if there is a Cider logo on the game.
    If its Wineskin ported, theres no super easy way to tell, depending on how much its been modified, but you can look inside the app (right click and "Show Package Contents") and go to Contents/MacOS and see if Wineskin executable is in there.  Unless its a very old version of Wineskin it shouldn't be able to hang like that without major issues int he Windows software running in it, and I don't know any any company would release it if it was that buggy.
    If its WineBottler Ported, you'll notice quickly because it launches X11 and runs the windows under X11... of course not all X11 apps are Wine, but if you have a program that launches and runs in X11.app then you can look inside it at Contents/MacOS to see if its Wine related.
    It could also be Crossover, or a Crossover port of software... you'd have to dig around inside of its app too to see if it looked like one of those.

  • Why does the Apple store carry  iKlear cleaning solution in stores?

    I noticed that the manual with my MacBook Pro just recommends dampening the cloth with water in order to clean the screen. Then why does the Apple store and website promote iKlear cleaning solution for the screen (rhetorical question) ? Is this product safe or not for cleaning the screen? Thanks.

    They carry it because they're a store, and like any store, anything that boost the margins is great to have on the shelf. It's the same reason any store sells really expensive accessories.
    I've always used water as the manual recommends. But iKlear is safe and I'm not necessarily against it. It may be good for unusual or stubborn stains that water can't dissolve. But for everyday cleaning, the question is whether you would prefer to clean your screen for free, or by paying for an expensive chemical.
    I've never bought a screen protector for my iPhone either, and it's been totally fine.

    from the information you provided i can't tell if it is a hardware problem or a software problem. I do have an idea though, try to press your home button and lock button at the same time.

  • Why does the update icon always on my desktop photoshop elements 10 icon

    why does the update icon always stay on the photoshop 10 icon on my desktop?

    We don't know because update function is hidden so deep in the Menu bar's help item that many people don't even know about it.  Now you are telling us that an icon is on your desktop so this is completely unusual.
    Are you sure it is not the icon for the PSE10 to make it easy for you to launch it?  Can you post a screenshot of what is on your desktop.
    We look forward to hearing from you soon.

  • HT4623 just updated my iPhone 4s to ios6, now my phone won't turn back on. The apple logo comes on and sits then shuts off. I have held down the home button and on/off switch several times to reset, but same problem persists.

    Place iPhone on Wall Charger for at least 10 minutes. Then keep on charger and Reset, hold both home and power buttons until the iPhone begins to start, this can take about 20 seconds of holding both buttons while on charger. If still problem, open iTunes 10.7 on computer, connect iPhone to computer with USB Cable, hold both home and power buttons for about 20 seconds until iTunes recognizes iPhone in Recovery Mode, then click Restore button of iTunes. If still problem, try DFU Mode Restore, here are the steps. Open iTunes on computer. Connect iPhone to computer with USB cable. Hold both Home and Power buttons, after exactly 10 seconds release the Power Button, keep holding the Home button until iTunes recognizes iPhone in Recovery Mode, usually about 20 seconds time. If the iPhone screen is black, blank this is DFU Mode. Click the Restore button of iTunes. DFU Mode can be difficult to enter sometimes, just keep trying. DFU Mode is a black, blank screen with iTunes saying Recovery Mode. If still problem and there is Warranty or AppleCare make Genius reservation and take to Apple for resolution.
