Problems with random shutdown after replacing a swollen battery

Hello all,
Perhaps one of you can help with this issue.
I'm using a Macbook Pro 17" mid-2007 model. A few months ago, the power disconnected from the machine when the battery had already run down and the machine did a hard shutdown. When I booted it back up there were serious problems with the display. Eventually it stopped working altogether. I took it for service and it was determined to by the NVIDIA graphics processor problem, so Apple replaced my motherboard.
When I got the machine back from servicing, there was a rattle in the right fan that gradually got worse. After a while the touchpad button stopped depressing in the center. I also experienced several random shutdowns while operating on battery power. I learned about the swelling battery issue with macbooks and ordered a replacement. By the time the replacement battery arrived my original battery was quite swollen. I'm concerned that the swelling battery may have warped the case a bit, leading to the fan noise.
I have now replaced the battery, but I'm still experiencing random shutdowns after 20+ minutes of use on battery power. I have done the RSS tests that were recommended in other forums and there doesn't seem to be any random shutdown problems when I'm plugged in -- only under battery power. My understanding is that a swelling battery can sometimes cause the battery to disengage from the electrical contacts on the MB, causing a sudden shutdown. I'm wondering why the problem is persisting now with a new battery? After one random shutdown, I tried to power up again using the battery, while pushing the battery into place at various angles, but I couldn't find any angle that would give power to the machine. The fan noise is also still present.
Can anyone offer an explanation or advise on any methods to overcome these random shutdowns? I have checked the console and the machine isn't registering any error when it shuts down, although when it restarts it says "DirectoryService[35] Improper shutdown detected"

Yep, it is video (or: or audio for video) so unless you're sure you need it (because you work or will work with the DVC Pro HD video/audio codec), you can remove the plug from its' folder and put it in your documents folder (don't trash it, I have no idea if it is necessary for non-DVC Pro HD users to have it installed too).
The WWW is littered with posts from people encountering bugs and crashreports with DVCPROHDAudio.plugin as the main suspect. Most of those posts seem to be from video people rather than audio folks.
http://www.google.nl/search?q=DVCPROHDAudio.plugin&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&aq=t&rls=or g.mozilla:en-US:official&client=firefox-a
But, if you get crashes and you see this one mentioned in the report, disable it, restart, and see if the problem's gone.

Strange noise problem with music layer after replacing the music file using script in CS6

Hey guys,
I got a strange problem. Sometime when I import a music file, or replace a music footage with another music file using the "replace()" or "importFile()" method, the music layer added one second noise at the beginning. like this,
Does anyone know what's going on here?
I'm using After Effects CS6 windows Server 2008 64bit.
Thanks in advance!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hi Myleniu,
Thanks for your replay. Actually, it doesn't matter what makes up my comp, this problem just randomly happen when I render any comp. For example, I have a comp named "noise", I run a script to replace the music then render it, I use a "for" loop to do this 5 times and the music noise problem just happen one time.
I'm starting to think that win server might be the problem.

Problems with back up after replacement of hard drive

Hi,
Recently I had my Seagate hard drive change due to a world wide recall by Apple. Prior to changing, I backup everything on my Mac using Time Machine with Time capsule. The technician bootup my system using a boot disk I think, after that I transferred all backup data from my time capsule to the Mac. Everything seems alright with the "restore" until I want to back up my latest data....I could not back up as my previous latest copy and just backup teh changes. The TCapsule showed my data which is 259GB but I cannot use back this data.
Do I have to delete this copy of backup in TC and restart the process from strt again? 259GB might take up to 24hours.
Please advise.
Andy

You need to erase the Time Capsule drive and start again. Whenever you change a hard drive, motherboard, etc., then Time Machine considers that a new computer and wants to create a new backup.
Use Airport Utility to erase the Time Capsule drive. Do not try removing the data manually.

Problem with time machine after replacing hard drive

A couple of days ago i went to the apple store and got the hard drive replaced on my macbook pro. When i got home i realized i couldnt back up from my time capsule. When i open time machine the only backups i can find are from "today" and i cant find anything else. I have not deleted anything and have not got any warnings about any backups being deleted.
I then went in to the time capsule from the sidebar in finder -> data, in which i found two sparsebundles. When clicking on the one i needed, i got this message:"no mountable filesystems". And from here on i dont know what to do.
I have been reading all over the forum, but can not find the answer. Also have in mind i am NOT a mac geek and know very little about this. I just want my important files back on my mac in a way i can understand.
Any help appreciated!

[ZM] Problem with idle shutdown.(or idle tim

My zen micro's current firmware is ..0
I found this problem months ago, but didn't try to figure it out.
There is centainly problem with idle shutdown timer.
I guess the IDLE SHUTDOWN TIMER SHOULD NOT RUN IF THE PLAYER IS PLAYING.
Idle = player is on, but not playing or not performing any task.
My current setting is
Idle timer = 5 min
Sleep timer = 45 min
This problem occurs,
When the player is turning on from deep sleep mode (after 4 hrs of stand-by mode)
I left my player playing mp3 after turning on.
And eventually the player shuts down itself after about 5 min (which is setted as idle timer)
So I checked the screen when the player shut down itself, and the screen was displaying 'Idle Shutdown'
Once the player shut down, it will not shut down again after turing on.
Summary,
. Turn on player after deep sleep mode(4hr)
2. leave player as playing music
3. after time amount of idle timer, it shuts down itself.
4. the screen displays 'idle shutdown' when it shuts down itself.
anyone noticing this problem?

Jason-CL wrote:mcramen,I tested by taking the battery out(this will simulate as a deep sleep), and also turning on and off the player a few times without taking the batttery out with the same setting. The player are still playing now.Jason
Jason, there is a critical difference your test missed: He turned his player off, let it go into "deep sleep" after 4 hours, then turned it back on and left it playing; it then went into "idle shutdown" after 5 minutes. This can only happen with 4-hour-standby firmwares (..02, 2.20.05, and the deprecated .0.02) turned off while playing, which then go into "deep sleep" after 4 hours; if you "simulate" it by resetting, it won't start playing when you turn it back on. And if you press any button, "idle shutdown" will work normally and the bug won't occur. (Older firmwares will lose your place when entering "deep sleep" after 24 hours, so they won't exhibit the problem.)
Sounds like a firmware bug where it fails to recognize that a player turned on from "deep sleep" doesn't need a button punched to be playing. Get ready for .2 and possibly 2.2 firmwares, maybe?
In the meantime, the workaround would be to press any button (menu, pause/unpause, anything) if it's playing when turning on from "deep sleep". (Much like the previous post, but I suspect any button other than the power switch will work, not just pause. But I could be wrong.)Message Edited by RBBrittain on 0-9-2005 02:4 PM

Problems with ITMS Videos after 1.1 Update

OK, so there are lots of posts about video problems on 5G ipods after software update 1.1 and what encoding methods were used etc etc.
After updating my 60GB iPod to 1.1 all my videos, including those purchased from the iTunes Music Store, suffer from audio problems.
The video playback is fine, no freezing like others have mentioned, but I get loud popping and clicking sounds on the audio, particulalry at the start of a clip.
Has ayone else experienced problems with video sound after the 1.1 update?
Restoring to software 1.0 resolved the problem so there is definitely a problem with 1.1 and ITMS content.
Apple need to sort this out. Fast.

I foolishly did the 1.1 upgrade to my 60G iPod. I found that, as we all know by now, that all ov my videos that weren't from Quicktime Pro or purchased through iTunes hang after about 30 seconds, and then continues without any audio. But, the really obnoxious part is that my videos that I converted via QuickTime Pro suffered from very strange audio artifacts. These would fall into the category of clicks, purrs, warbles and other strange noises in addition to the audio that is supposed to be there. That pushed me over the line, and I "downgraded" my iPod back to release 1.0. I did the "restore" to completely erase my iPod and then re-loaded it from iTunes. I had already upgraded iTunes, and it has no problems with my now-restored-to-version 1.0 iPod. By the way, you have to edit a system file in order to do the downgrade: Put the ipod in harddisk mode. Edit the file (hidden folder and file) \iPod_Control\Device\SysInfo Replace the line that have the word "buildID" with this line:
buildID: 0x05908000 (6.0)
Then run the original iPod Updater to put 1.0 back onto it. This will leave you with the "feature" that any video that you change the Video Kind to TV Show will not show up on your iPod unless it's in a Video Play List. I actually like this, as it keeps the Video list from being cluttered up.

Reception / Battery problems with iPhone 3GS after upgrading to iOS 4.2.1

There are major reception and battery problems with iPhone 3GS after upgrading to iOS 4.2.1.
I can not believe that Apple did not test this for major bugs like this one is.
I am a business user and can not effort to have bad reception. Apple wants to gain in the business clients... I never had this with my former BlackBerrys!
I need a reliable phone not a play thing like this is right now, it just needs it to work propely. And if a major bug like this comes along, fix it immediately. After the iPhone4 story, now this...incredible! Going back to my reliable BlackBerry! It just ain't reliable and takes forever to fix a problem.

I have the same issue after iOS 4.2.1 update. I am using iPhone 3GS officially unlocked by Apple. I tried using different SIM cards and both carriers show same problem when using phone in 3G mode. Phone falls back to EDGE mode showing 'E' from '3G' at start. I have reset the phone and rebooted several times and moved to different cell areas in the city just to verify the problem.
I had no such issues earlier. I also have Nokia E71 which shows full signal and has no such issues.
I have posted the bug on apple iphone feedback page. I hope they Apple will fix the problem and test the release properly on all models before releasing to public.

Problem with iWeb 09, after the publication in a local file.

*Subject: problem with iWeb 09, after the publication in a local file, i can't see my blog, nor my photos, but before that all was working fine.*
After the publication in the local file, I see all my pages, but there is a mistake on the page "Blog" where I just can see the top of my page, it's cut and I can't see it entirely, so I can't see the inputs while I should see 3 news or 3 inputs. And it's the same for the "Photos" page where the page is cut, I can't see the photos, and it's just written : "Put the slide show and subscribe".To finish, when I want to activate the comments, it doesn't work neither.
Please help me.

I want to activate the comments, it doesn't work neither.
The comments feature is only available when you publish to the MobileMe server, so I don't think you can use it when you publish to a local file.

Has anyone had a problem with CS3 crashing after downloading OS 10.8.1 on a imac?

Has anyone had a problem with CS3 crashing after downloading OS 10.8.1 on a imac?

You are probably correct. I tried all different variations to test it. As long as I quit each document separately, i.e., red dot it, I seem to bring up only one document after that whether I click on the document itself or open it within pages. The same is true with numbers.
Two more questions:
1) can you turn off the "resume" feature? If so, how? I could not find a way to do it.
2) why the "save a version" feature in pages? What happened to the old "save" and "save as" features?
Thanks so much, you saved me a lot of frustration but I am still going to install MS Office for Mac.

Problems with Airport setup after buying Version 7 models, (older ones will not upgrade)

Problems with Airport setup after buying Version 7 models, (older ones will not upgrade)
I re set up my Airport network , having had 4 expresses for years doing a good job. I bought another and an express, but then a time capsule after my external drive died. .Problems with Airport setup after buying Version 7 models, (older ones will not upgrade)
I moved house and have fibre network so 38mb/s - they all look ok on the utility, but its not till I saw the App version that they are not compatible as mac will not upgrade the version 6 ones, leaving me with 2 disjointed networks and 7 appliances, 4 of the old , 3 of the new.
my new house is expansive so i wanted the extended range and airplay in each room.
This is not told to customers, and utility doesnt show any issues.
I do not seem to get any range from either network now, - and I'm quite experienced with airport (6 yrs of setting up & using & extending)
Any advice ?

It is locked to your sisters carrier.
She would have to ask her carrier if they unlock iPhones and if she qualifies for this service.

fair enough. No need for any unnecessary posts either. You issue had been addressed ad nauseum already in this forum had you bothered to search this forum (as forum etiquette would dictate) before posting.
In any case, I hope that your problem was solved.
