[QUOTE="K515, post: 943064, member: 109951"] I got my MBP this past July - I'm a new mac user. Tonight I was working on Comic Life Deluxe and got the spinning "raindow wheel" (this kept spinning for about 10 - 15 minutes) so I got tired of waiting for the mouse pointer to reappear and I pressed the power button to turn off my MBP. Now when I try to start it up again, by pressing the power button & holding down the option key, the "Macintosh HD" icon does not show up - I have a blank white screen. I'm alrady panaking - did I break my MBP? What can I do to get my MBP working again?? The power cord is connected to the computer and plugged in the electrical outlet. The computer was running and booting up just fine until this happened. This happened suddenly, first time since I had my MBP. This MBP was one of these unveiled at the WWDC during June 8 - 12, 2009, & ordered brand-new from apple.com's online store. [/QUOTE]
