![]() Now, whenever I try turning it on, the loud chime is there, but it still does not boot up completely - again, it stays at the gray Apple symbol with no loading bar whatsoever (not even an empty loading bar).Īnother note: I did take out every “peripheral” device (I think that’s what they’re called) and tried restarting. Still stuck on the gray Apple screen (which there’s never a loading bar, just a lone, gray Apple symbol). Eventually I found another thing to try: pressing down OPTION+COMMAND+R+P. I tried holding down the SHIFT button to start it in safe mode - a gray circle with a slash through it (□) popped up. So I researched, discovered the “white screen of death” and tried to resolve it based on what many sources say would fix a white screen. Note: each time it did this by itself and each I time I turned it off & on, there was no chime (or music or whatever it’s called - the loud noise a Mac makes when it comes on). White screen, clicking, Apple, black screen. The Apple would be there for a long time, and then the screen would go black, and then the whole process started over again. The screen stayed white for a long time, then eventually the gray Apple popped up but nothing else after that. It happened about 8 times and then stopped. I noticed a tapping/clicking noise coming from it. However, yesterday I woke it up, was about to start working on it when suddenly the screen went white. I know, it’s ancient - but it has been working great for a long time.
