I'm sure this has been brought to this forum countless times.
I restarted my Macbook yesterday and now I'm only getting the grey screen eventually resulting in the file with this question mark in it blinking at me. I went through and tried all the keystrokes while starting it up: 'Option' to look at the drives, 'Shift' to go into safe mode, so on. None of these work.
Today I got my latest OSX disc and insert it, it finally acted like it was going to do something as I noticed it was no longer the grey screen with the questionable file logo. This time it was the Apple logo sitting there stationary. However, it would go no further. I thought this may be a good time to go and check out the 'Option' key start up. It brought up a logo for the OSX disc and I clicked it, but it just went right back to the grey screen with the Apple logo and is going no further.
Any solutions? I need this issue resolved ASAP as this is my business and teaching computer. Nearest Apple store is about an hour away. Wondering if anyone here has the answers.
Thank you all in advance!
