• 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:

• MacBook (2010) starts with black screen with flashing Apple logo

  I recently got ahold of a Macbook Pro 2010 running very slow so I did a reinstall of the operating system (which was a living nightmare, Macintosh is not as easy to manage as it was at the time of PowerPC) once I got to the top and running, I decided to upgrade to the latest version of El Capitan (an update (not an upgrade I already had a version out there) once I rebooted and let the computer do its thing he began to start up normally, but after finishing the progress bar, he went to a black screen (with the screen still on) that flashed the boot from time to time Apple logo. I forced shut down the computer and start in safe mode with success (that's how I'm typing this post now).

  Thanks in advance.

  When you reinstalled, did you remove any third-party system before reinstalling.

  A Mac that runs in Mode without failure, but are generally not normally indicates some incompatible system changes.

• MacBook pro 2011 - starts greenish screen not

  Hi all

  I wonder what is happening to my macbook pro.

  Product: macbook pro start 2011-2 GHz - 8 GB ram - running os 10.11.4

  symptoms: suddenly stopped last week when I was watching a movie. Note that the fans were noisy given that the weather was warm and the hot computer as well. Now it starts but won't go to the part of connection. It shows a greenish screen with weird block lines. Please see the pictures attached.

  Looks like it could be the graphics card.

  I tried to clear the NVRAM, boot in safe mode and reinstall in wifi, but that did not help

  Thank you for your support.

  Use the Installation of Snow Leopard original CD and see if you can access disk utility and run first aid on the HARD drive.

  If you need, ask.

  Ciao.

• Satellite Pro L300 - cursor black screen flashing

  Hi all

  I have a Toshiba laptop Satellite Pro L300 Vista.

  The customer earned him in because when it starts it goes to home Toshiba screen then goes to a black screen with cursor flashing at the top left. I connected external monitor with the same result. Swapped RAM as well.

  Have run Memtest (spent), Seagate HDD long test (past), Ultimate boot CD and Winternals without success.
  * F8 does not work * and no more than the resumption of the plant.

  Can enter the BIOS F2 and F12 no problems and the HARD drive is listed.

  I reinstalled Vista on CD and on reboot it goes back to blinking cursor. I tried booting from the Vista CD repair and system restore. FixBoot commands and FixMbr prompt as well as with the same result.
  I feel that it may be a corrupt CMOS sensor? It's like the OS installs correctly, but the computer loses his memory on reboot where the operating system?

  Is the battery CMOS easily accessible and removable on this model?

  Has anyone experienced these symptoms? Is - fixable at lower cost?

  Hello

  If you have clients, I guess you're a technician and hope you have a few pieces of equipment in your store.
  Have you tried to set the BIOS to default settings and check again?
  If possible try to exchange the HARD drive and test the functionality again.
  You can use laptop with Linux live CD (HARD drive not required)?

  To be honest that I think n problem t is ORGANIC and, in my opinion, the exchange of the CMOS battery is not necessary.

  Please test it with the new HARD drive and post comments.

• Windows 7 Pro 64 bit black screen with the mouse only on startup and nothing else

  Hi there, Windows 7 system recently froze on me when I tried to move a large file on a USB hard drive. I didn't was not able to close the file so I decided to stop my PC with the regular start-> Shut Down.

  Now when I try to turn on my computer, after the "starting Windows" and Microsoft report goes to a pure black screen with just a (mobile) mouse cursor, not keyboard commands or click right work (eg. ctrl + alt + delete does nothing).

  I tried to start in safe mode, safe mode with network, they do the same thing after the "Starting Windows" screen. Tried to boot with my Windows 7 Pro 64-bit installation disk so and entered commissioning repair - no problem. Tried system restore and it went successfully, however after clicking restart is again the same thing!

  It's really making me crazy, could someone please help me? I really want to reinstall Windows and lost my files (since I can't even in a form any Windows Installer interface I'm not able to do a repair).

  Thanks in advance for your suggestions!

  I will proceed to a re - install now, thanks anyway for your efforts

• Satellite Pro A120 - LCD black screen - Fine on external monitor - fine

  Hi, I have a headache with a Toshiba Satellite Pro A120 mojor. The screen began to move to the blackout at random times and happens more and more. It is not serious if W
  Jayindows has loaded or if I enter the bios, boot from the CD or leave it sitting waiting for me to select a boot device. More often than otherwise, it becomes black, but you can still see what needs to be on the screen, it is simply not at all turned to see clearly. The laptop itself still works very well because it works on an external monitor and makes the system beeps, cd turns etc.
  Have you tried the following:
  Setting of various parameters in the graphics properties and in the bios but makes no difference.
  It also becomes active again if I press FN + F5 to swap monitors but turns off after a few seconds.
  It is not overheating as it's been all night and still sometimes happens when starting Cold Stone.
  I tried to start with / without battery - no difference.
  I tried to start without the disk HARD - no difference.
  I tried to remove the battery by pressing power for 60 seconds, then add the battery and new starter - no difference in power.
  I could have sworn it is the inverter, but it does the same thing with an inverter I know works! do not think that it may be graphic because it works on an external monitor and turn off.
  I'm out of ideas and looking for a genius to fix it for me please!
  See you soon

  Hey Buddy,

  > It turns on but not at all to see clear
  This would mean that the FL inverter is faulty the FL inverter of the internal LCD display controls the backlight of the screen and if the isn t working FL inverter you can see a picture, but very very dark.

  It would be a logical explanation for your problem, because there must be something wrong with the laptop LCD if an external monitor is working properly. Also if it happens in the BIOS the problem is not software.

  In your case I contact an authorized service provider and ask the guys for help. They can check your laptop and this should be done. Here, we can only speculate and discuss the different possibilities because it s just a user forum. EPA has professional diagnostic tools and can order all Toshiba spare parts.

  Good luck! :)

• Satellite Pro A300-28V - black screen boot failure

  My three days old Satellite Pro A300 began yesterday to hang at startup in Vista. I rebooted twice with good result, but now I see only the home Toshiba screen, then it goes black with a cursor top left. I won't answer on /F12/ F8 F2 or the recovery of the DVD. Indicator LED disc is black, fan-only sound. I have connected not no matter what external monitor ever on this one.

  At the moment so it's Sunday I chose the battery and will try again in an hour or two, otherwise I contact seller tomorrow. Any ideas what's happening? BIOS crash, hard drive (after three days)?
  / disappointed

  Hello

  Does this mean that you can t access the BIOS too?

  If it s, then it seems to be a hardware problem. Therefore, the service provider authorized in your country. They can help you to repair the laptop.

  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.

  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).

• Satellite Pro L300 PSLB1E - black screen / no display

  Hello

  hope someone can point me in the right direction. I just bought a re-conditioned by Satellite Pro L300 Model PSLB1E of Dabs.com.
  He worked for about 20 minutes and then I got a blue screen error (I think that I just tried to open Windows Media Player when this happened).
  Sorry, but I didn't note down the error however seem to recall he mentioned win30.dll?

  Now, when I turn on the laptop I can hear things fan etc but there is no display on the screen.
  I don't know what to do and I have no warranty documentation.
  Suggestions this is appreciated please.

  Are you able to start, any bootable disks, Win XP, Win Vista, Linux live CD, etc.

  Please check this!

  But if you will not be able to boot from these disks, then you must contact the ASP (authorized service provider) in your country, because this problem looks a little more hardware related problem.

  Good luck

• Satellite Pro L770 - intermittent black screen

  I had some problems in the last few weeks with my L770 Pro Satellite.

  Occasionally, the screen is blank, it comes and goes without apparent cause, it can sometimes be empty for an hour, sometimes more, sometimes much shorter.
  There is a display when I connect to a TV via HDMI.

  The screen of the computer itself can go motionless on a desk, as well as come back when it has not been moved.
  As far as I know that some drivers have been updated.

  From there, I can only assume that there is a bad connection?

  Hello

  The display turns OFF when using Notepad or while staying away from the laptop?

  Please check the option called choose when turning off the display
  It is found on Panel-> power-> left column Options

  Here you can set the time when the display would be sounded.
  I would recommend settings this forever in order to test the functionality
