Apple MacBook Pro with a white screen on startup, help!

Hello world

I was the creation of a powerpoint for an AE conference is next week and while running my Mac screen is temporarily deformed and then turned to white. I left for a while and then held down the power button to restart. On this operation, he got successfully to the stage where I enter my password, then displays the bar loading. At mid-way through charging it cut to white again and reworded. I then repeated several times, same result.

Solve by looking at the options online, I tried following technical success:

Command-R power on: goes to the white screen after the chime.

Command-option-R-p: goes to the white screen after the chime and apple logo.

Command-shift: enter the stage newspaper but then white screen.

Command + S and fsck - fy: mac says is 'OK', rebooted and got the white screen after the chime and apple logo.

Connected to the mac to work with cable Thunderbolt: mode target open successfully, but the drive does not appear on the mac to work.

What can I do else?

There is no apple in my store.

This is a 17 "Mac Book Pro with El Captain OS X (don't know which) no history of problems...

I hope someone can help.

Try resetting the SMC

Reset the management system (SCM) controller on your Mac - Apple Support

If you try a safe boot, just hold SHIFT when the computer comes on, not Command-Shift.

In addition, if you can get to the login screen, try to hold SHIFT while you connect to your account (not while you type, but when you have finished your password and immediately after pressing enter/return).

  • MacBook Pro with screen Retina or normal MacBook Pro?

    HI, I want to buy a MacBook Pro, but I don't know what we should I buy, the retina or normal? I look at the series and videos from YouTube and I want to edit videos and my pictures if I buy one, so I thought that the retina it would be better for me, but it is too expensive. I want it with 512 ir 500g and but the MacBook Pro with retinal display costs $700 more. Also, I watched some YouTube videos that compared the MacBook Pro with Retina display vs the regular MacBook Pro. And the MacBook pro with the Retina display is faster. is there too much difference between the normal pro and the macbook with the Retina display? And there too much difference on the screen?

    If you have a normal MacBook Pro or a MacBook Pro with retina Display, please tell me your experience with it. Also tell me what I should buy.

    Thank you

    Your best option is to go to a store (Apple or reseller) and compare screens side by side.  Only then can you make an informed decision.

    The main differences between the two models is that the retina has no DVD player and cannot have put RAM at day after purchase and the PCIe SSD updated at great expense (which will also void any warranty).

    The non-retine can have the RAM has increased to a maximum 16 GB at a later date and may have installed later hard/SSD drives of up to 2 TB of capacity.

  • 2010 MacBook Pro with El Capitan will not run Apple hardware Tests

    I have a MacBook Pro with El Capitan 2010 installed (10.11.1). He gave me refresh issues such as refresh very slow on the desktop and in the three different browsers, which eventually would crash when I tried to run the videos. I have reset the PRAM. Then ran first aid and received a message ' Mac HD corrupted and needs to be repaired. Tried to run first aid Mode safe, so I started it as such and first aid, then ran with an OK message. Then I tried to run Apple Hardware Test online with D at the start but he would go directly to the grey screen with Apple and would not be executed that the AHT even through I've tried several times. I have not seen anyone with this problem. Any ideas?

    The Apple Hardware test is the second of your original version of records. If you have not taken care of for transfer to a hidden location on your drive, it will be available from these disks. Your Mac is probably too old to get it automatically from the Internet.

  • MacBook pro grey after sleep screen

    I have documented on this problem for some time now on the MacBook screen goes black or rather a visible backlight gray but black screen after being in standby mode. I tried the reset SMC and command + Option + P + R. I am owner of a mid 2014 13 "macbook pro retina.

    Hi Youngnn,

    Welcome to Apple Support communities. It is my understanding you are MacBook Pro shows a gray screen after being in mode 'sleep'. I want to help get this resolved with you.

    You did a great job with the steps taken so far. At this point, I recommend this test in safe mode. Start in safe mode prevents the opening and start-up items to open automatically. Safe mode also allows your Mac to conduct some controls. If the problem does not occur in safe mode, it is possible to a startup item or logon are the cause. Please follow the steps below to start in safe mode:

    1. Start or restart your Mac.
    2. As soon as you hear the startup tone, hold down the SHIFT key.
    3. Release the SHIFT key when you see the logo Apple appears on the screen.

    After the Apple logo appears, this may take longer than usual to reach the login screen or your office. This is because your Mac performs a check of directory of your drive to boot in safe mode.

    To leave safe mode, restart your computer without pressing any keys during startup.

    Try safe mode if your Mac does not end commissioning

    If the problem persists in safe mode try this test to another user. This will help determine whether specific user files, settings and apps cause this problem. Please use the link below to test in an another user account and additional steps:

  • You have a 2011 Macbook Pro with NO GPU failure?

    Hi all.

    I am considering buying a 15 "MBP end 2011 hi res, screen matte, and with the chipset 6750 m from a friend. It worked without any of the well known symptoms since it's production.

    My question is:

    Is it possible to actually own a Macbook Pro with the chipset hit without a logic board/GPU problems?



    What I think:

    If 10 + million Macbook Pro have been produced with these chipsets in 2011/12, if it's only a tiny fraction who suffers actually total ventilation - all online writing is negative - no one does not write when their machine works.

    What is your opinion on that? Can someone ellaborate?

    Thank you

    M.

    Only Apple has statistics that would give any valid information on the magnitude of this problem.  For what it's worth, the program was extended until the end of the year.

  • You just bought a 13 "MacBook Pro with the Retina display. What are some tips you have for me to make this thing last? It's my first MacBook.

    I just bought a brand new 13 "MacBook Pro with the Retina display (no, I didn't wait for the new version of 2016). It's my first MacBook.

    I'm looking for advice on what I can to make this last as long as possible. You guys have any advice for me of past experiences or knowledge? It will be greatly appreciated!

  • CS5 Design Premium and recently bought a MacBook Pro with the retina display

    I have CS5 Design Premium and recently bought a MacBook Pro with the retina display. everything seems pixelated. Question: if I buy a large external screen for use with the product Adobe will always look pixelated?

    I can't answer that question, but I can say that CS5 is is no longer being updated for the new hardware and operating systems, so as far as I know, if you buy an external with the same kind of screen 'High definition' monitor you have now, you will have the same problem
