Black nano vs white nano

I'm about to get an iPod nano and i just cant decide w hich color to get...black or white. I also heard that one of the colors is better because scratches are less visible on it???Is this true???

<q>...I think it's so slick looking in black...</q>
With a back lit screen it's just beautiful. Everyone that got a glance of mine was astounded by the looks. I have no regrets getting a black nano.

Black or white nano?

I rodered a black nano and its supposed to ship in tomorrow or the enxt day. I can still cancel it. With all the stuff being said about how u can notice the scratched more on the black one Ive been thinkin about cancelling my order n ordering a white one
Any Suggestions??
please help

I got a black nano, and my bro has a white nano.
They look great IMO. As for scratches, definitely get a case.
And DO NOT take out that stick that protects the front of your nano until you get a case. That way, your nano should be protected.
As for your question, keep the black one. Just don't take that sticker out that comes with the Nano until you get a case and you should be fine.

White Nano and Scratching

Hey everybody
I just love the new Nano and was thinking about getting one soon but the discussion about the scratching made me hesitate. So far I have only read about black Nanos being scratched easily. Is it only because you can see scratches easier on the black surface or is the white one made from stronger fabrics?
Does anyone of you owners of white Nanos have problems with scratches and the readability of the screen etc.?
Would like to hear about your experiences.
Thanks, znilk

yes...my white nano has problems with scratches...all over the unit (including the screen). i have stopped using it until i receive the icleaner that i ordered (scratch remover) and the invisible shield that i ordered (to protect it from further damage). thanks, apple
my sony psp never scratched as bad as my white nano.
other than that....its a great little mp3 player and i cant wait get to get it cleaned up and protected so i can start using it again.

White nano click wheel(quick question)

im just wondering if the click wheel is supposed to be a little loose on the white nano.... my white touch pad is a little loose, but not too loose, when a black nano seems to be in place a little more... just today i held an Ipod video(white) and the wheel was as loose as mine, as my friends black Ipod video acted the same as a black nano.. why is this, or is it a defect of somesort.....
its a stupid question but hey lol might as well ask...

I think I know what you are talking about and I don't think it's specific to any particular color. I believe sometimes when it's exposed to certain conditions the plastic may have been shaped slightly differently or possibly later very minorly warped. Nothing to worry about though unless I misunderstand you.

I bought three colors of the zCover case, black, blue and ice clear.
I am most impressed with the look of the ice clear case, as I believe that it mantains the classic iPod look.
The blue one is for my wife, and it looks pretty nice.
The black case looks dirty all the time because the dust it attracts really shows up.
Overall the sheath and lanyard style cases are very nice in feel, fit and features.
Using the scroll wheel will take a little bit of tactile adjustment, as it does require that you apply a slight bit more pressure for it to respond.
I especially like two features, that include the hard screen protector and the flip open bottom on the lanyard style case.
I would like to see the flip open bottom feature also applied to the sheath style case, because the Nano will not fit into the Nano dock with a case on it.

Is there a fix for a Nano 6G "White Screen" or is it toast?

My Nano went "white screen of death" on me. Could someone give me the good or bad news please?
Thank you!

BTW...out of warranty/no AppleCare :-(

White Nano might be alright with just a screen protector...

I have already gone through one nano, 2gb and will be returnign it shortly because it scratches so easy, but i also just ordered 2 packs of screen protectors from decal girl. Now the nano comes with a crappy screen protector already, and if u put it on it, u can see that it doesnt scratch the screen or anything. also if ur nano is white, you cant see any scratches on the back or front, other than the screen. So i think for those of u who have white nanos, go to decal girl, pay 3.50 for a pack of screen protectors, and ull be ok...

no man im from canada, anyways did you return your white ipod because of scratches on the screen only?

When I boot up my iMac I get a black screen with white text?

Hey guys wondering if anyone can help me. I installed mountain lion on my iMac the other day (2.8ghz Intel Core 2 Duo, 24inch) and now when I turn it on I get this screen come up? Any one no of a way to fix it? It comes up black all this white text appears and at the end it says..
"If you wish to boot the system:
exit
:/ root #
You type exit and some more stuff comes up then the mac boots up, normal apple loading screen and your in?? I tried reinstalling mountain lion again and I had no luck. Still doing it? Its strange cause ML is running fine on my macbook air. If anyone has any suggestions I would be so grateful. Tell me this isnt the end of her?
Its not something silly like the keyboard and mouse aren't connecting? I leave them on all the time.
Heres a snap of the screen
Thanks everyone

I did reset the PRAM, but don't think that worked. I did find this on a blog on the web. It worked for me
When I first read this post I did not realize that the Mac boots properly if you type "exit". It seems like perhaps your mac thinks you want to boot in "verbose" mode. Try this before doing a reinstall.
http://www.ernieflores.net/osx-page-3/always-boot-mac-os-x-in-verbose-mode/
I got this info from here
http://www.mac-forums.com/forums/os-x-operating-system/280859-black-screen-white -text-startup.html
note: after it starts with the white text and black screen just type exit then hit return key and the computer will startup. open the terminal after that and follow the ernie flores blog tip.

Some pictures in I-Photo seem to be corrupted. When I click on them, the photo comes up for a second, then the picture turns black with a white fuzzy circle inside it and what looks like an explanation mark. Some older, some newer, no common thread.

Some pictures in I-Photo seem to be corrupted. When I click on them, they come up for a second, then turn black with a white circle in the middle and what looks like an explanation mark. There does not seem to be any rhyme or reason to the photos that are a problem, some older ones, some newer, some albums have none, some albums have a lot.

time to time (when I have a chance), I will go to Finder, bring up ALL Images and start going through them to label them (before I put a label on them, they are simply listed as 123 jpg, 124 jpg etc.).
You're damaging the Library doing that, and that's the cause of your problem.
Never, ever, ever use the All Images search and work on items in yoyr iPhoto Library. They must only be accessed via the iPhoto window.
Restroe from abck up or try rebuild the Library:
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In early versions of Library Manager it's the File -> Rebuild command. In later versions it's under the Library menu.)
This will create an entirely new library. It will then copy (or try to) your photos and all the associated metadata and versions to this new Library, and arrange it as close as it can to what you had in the damaged Library. It does this based on information it finds in the iPhoto sharing mechanism - but that means that things not shared won't be there, so no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your events, albums and keywords, faces and places back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.
Next: You need to learn how to use iPhoto. There's no need to be dragging things to the desktop:

Is there a way to set the iPhone to have a black screen with white text?

I found the "Invert Colors" option under Settings > General > Accessibility, and like it a lot. It provides enhanced readability.
The problem is that it inverts all colors, even for apps. So when I view a web page in Safari, all the colors are inverted for the images.
And when I view my photos in Photos, these are also inverted as well.
Is there a way to set up the iPhone to default to a black screen and white letters for the OS, but allow the apps and photos, etc. to
be viewed in their regular colors. For example, can I run Photos to view my photos on a black background but view the photos in their
normal coloring?

I'm afraid that is not possible, maybe this could bee a step in that direction if you use the mentioned Zoom function:
Invert Colors and Grayscale
Sometimes, inverting the colors or changing to grayscale on the iPhone screen makes it easier to read.
Invert the screen colors. Go to Settings > General > Accessibility, then turn on Invert Colors.
See the screen in grayscale. Go to Settings > General > Accessibility, then turn on Grayscale.
Turn on both effects to see inverted grayscale. You can also apply these effects to just the contents of the zoom window—see Zoom on page 150.

I don't know what's wrong with my 3GS. It only shows the black screen with white apple. Turning it on then off doesn't help.

I don't know what's wrong with my 3GS. It only shows the black screen with white apple. Home button and turning the phone off then on doesn't seem to do anything.

Thanks Lucas,
I've tried doing that with no results. Same screen keeps showing. Maybe it'd be more helpful if I told you a bit more info. My phone was randomly playing music, and the voice control would also suddenly start without me touching the phone. Then I let the battery die and started to recharge when on the screen it indicated to plug into my computer/iTunes, I tried to restore but was getting an error message (can't remember what it said now). Battery died and now my current issue of the black screen with white apple. I'd love to be able to restore my phone but now its not showing as a device on my iTunes. HELP! Any other suggestions?

Boot Camp partitions and restarts to black DOS screen, white cursor

I've tried installing Windows 7 on my MacBook Pro 8,1 three times now. When Boot Camp Assistant finishes the partition it restarts to a black screen with white cursor at top left. Nothing happens after that. If I restart it still happens. The only way to boot into OS X now is to hold option on boot and select my main drive.
Any help is very much appreciated..

Did you end up getting it to work? I am so frustrated. I have spent countless hours trying to install windows 8 on my Mac using bootcamp assistant. I get the same result: the computer restarts to start running windows and then it just goes to the black screen with the cursor blinking. I have an early 2008 iMac, just upgraded to Mountain Lion. Bought the Windows 8 from completesoftwarecenter.com for 69$ bucks. They claimed that it was the 'full' version. I am now not so convinced. I may ask for a refund. Any suggestions? PLEASE HELP!
I got the 64 bit not the 32 bit windows 8, dont know if that plays a part or not.
Doesn't matter, Windows 8 is not supported yet (Apple have not released drivers) at the moment it is pure luck if it works (as many have discovered) Use Win 7 or wait for support from Apple.

Hi, I'm working on a document in PAges 09. Any idea on how to change the document color? I want it black instead of white.

Nichelle,
You must add your own background object, and then make it Black.
Insert > Shape > Rectangle
In the Wrap Inspector, set to Floating.
In the Graphic Inspector, set Stroke to None and set Fill to Black.
Grab the corners of the document and stretch the document to cover the entire page.
Back in the Wrap Inspector select "In Background".

Black screen with white line

I have a late 2009 Macbook. Ocasionally when i open it up, i get a black screen with a bright white line at the bottom of the monitor. Rebooting and closing the laptop doesn't change anything. I can connect it to an external display and the display appears pefectly on the other screen, while the mac remains black with a white line at the bottom. If i take off the bottom cover plate, and touch a new random things, the screen will return to normal, but flicker initially. This has now happened 3 times, and i can't seem to make any sense of it. After reading online i can't see to find any problems on this MC207ll/a macbook. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

You obviously broke the screen when the phone was dropped. Apple doesn't repair the screen on an iPhone 4; it will replace the phone for $149.

I installed Mountain Lion and now some times when I start my mac it look with a black screen and white text. I'm really worry about it, can somebody help me?

I installed Mountain Lion in my IMac and now, some times, when I start up my mac it looks with a black screen and white text. I'm really worry about it, can somebody help me?

Don't worry, this is probably just Verbose Mode. It's perfectly harmless. If you're not specifically invoking it, than it's probably down to an unwanted setting in NVRAM. See this article on resetting NVRAM if it continues to bother you.
