Uhoh, ever have leftover parts you don't know what to do with? T60 SNAFUzaX;

Well... I was cleaning dust out of the inside of my beautiful T60 (the fan kept overheating) and like an idiot there is now a piece of laptop guts attached that I cannot find the home to! Have taken a picture, below. It is roughly L-shaped with stainless steel clip and screw hole on one side & black plastic with a black squishy "eye" looking thing that is soft plastic covering something magnetic (my mini philips screwdriver got attached to it) - maybe a heat sensor? It is attached to the left side under keyboard by a brown & white thin braided set of wires...
It seems like it should go over the fan, or under the keyboard, or under the bottom plate under the nav pad, but it doesn't seem to fit anywhere without creating a big bump!
I'm just wondering can somebody please please tell me where that stupid L-shaped plastic thing attaches to??? I know that's a lot to ask but I'm asking if you're willing, then maybe send a pic? Help!
Thanks in advance T60 Guts!

Our iCal is refusing to refresh, we're using mobileme and that account all looks good. Just suddenly refusing to refresh. Have resubscribed everyone, just don't know what's up with it? Any ideas? we rely on it to keep everyone on schedule!

Doh, I thought I had to cram the question into those few words - didn't realise it wa sa title! Our iCal has just recently refused to automatically refresh - if you delete it and subscribe again it won't let you. All machines affected. We use MobileMe and I've been on the account and all looks good. Is there someone we can phone to talk this through? We're a mag so we really need to all work on the same schedule and know who is off etc? Any clues?
Cheers

Have you got a firewall? - these can sometimes cause problems.
If you are in a business environment and all on the same LAN, you might like to consider abandoning MobileMe and buying BusyCal. It's like iCal Pro in effect, with more facilities, including the ability to display ToDos in the day area: it uses the same database as iCal.
You would revert to local calendars, and BusyCal can sync them instantly between computers on the same network, with read/write access if required. (Syncing can only take place when Macs are on).
It's available in the Mac App Store and their site has a free trial period (it's more expensive on the site so you would want to delete the trial and buy from the App Store).

HT1229 How do you transfer photos to external backup and keep the photos in events with event name or with description name. Each time I have tried to transfer them they only transfer with a jpg number so you don't know what photos are what.

How do you transfer photos to external backup and keep the photos in events with event name or with description name. Each time I have tried to transfer them they only transfer with a jpg number so you don't know what photos are what. When you have several thousand photos it is difficult to determined what is what.
Why does iPhoto have the ability to put photos in events and to give them descriptions if it doesn't transfer this info with the photo. I want to back my photos up to an external drive.

The simplest way to achieve what you want is to back up the iPhoto Library. That will get everything.
You sem to be exporting from iPhoto to the Finder. The Finder does not have the same organisation capabilities as iPhoto. If you're going to do that you need to understand some of the differences between the two.
Event Name will become Folder Name.
'Description Name' I guess is the Title you give the Photo
Jpeg Number is the File Name assigned by your camera.
So: File -> Export
Set your Kind to Jpeg
Select your preferred Quality
Check the Boxes at 'Titles and Descriptions' and Location Information
Under FIlename select 'Use Title'
Click on Export. In the Next Window choose a New Folder as your export destination and then Name that as you prefer

How do you access updates to apps from the App store after changing to a new ID because the password on the old ID was changed and you don't know what it is now?

How do you access updates to apps from the App store after changing to a new ID because the password on the old ID was changed by the former husband and you don't know what it is now? And you set up your own new ID and account but can NOT access the updates, from the App store for the many apps that you already have, because they require that you sign in with that former now inaccessible ID and account and password? Call it a problem of modern times and changing relationships, if you want to be charitable.

So I guess it will only be new apps that I download that are allowed to give me their updates while 13 updates wait for me on an ID I can no longer access.
Yes... sorry.
In the future, if need be, you can re download your purchases for free > Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
Good rule of thumb is to back up your purchases regardless > Mac App Store: Backing up your app purchases

If you don't know what to do anymore(Written by Bas)

If you don't know what to do anymore because drivers won't install, you might try this.
Hi there,
* This article is not really for newbies, but you might give it a try. *
* Read it thru the end before you do anything!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! *
I was testing 3Dmark for the link Takki made, THANK YOU!!!!!
I did the following:
Tested with my MSI GF2Ti200 (patched to Quadra2Pro) and had a nice score....
Then I removed the drivers and changed the card to a Hercules Prophet 4500 (KyroII chipset), installed the drivers and done the test again, no problems....I THOUGHT!!!!
So I uninstalled the drivers again, and inserted the MSI GF2Ti200....
After the reboot of Win2000+SP2+Directx8.1+VIA4.38, I installed the latest nVidia drivers again, it detected my card as a Quadra2Pro (as it should) and I rebooted....
The DARN drivers wouldn't initialize!!! I had a nice ! in the driver....
So I thought, well no problem, we uninstall them again and try it again, same result.....
Then I thought, it must be the BIOS as I recently flashed the latest version, so I went back to 5.1 from 5.3 on my KT3-Ultra-ARU.....again nothing and the ! was there again.....
At this point I really started to hate nVidia (still do BTW)....
The next step I took, was refreshing the ACPI-compliant-system-driver (HAL), no problem you think? My idea exactly, but it told me that it could find some file or it was damaged.....no problem, we just reboot and it should be fine, again nada, njet, noppes, none....but now I had 2 of these damn !, one at the nVidia card and one at the HAL....
We don't give up, so I started to delete all the OEM*.INF files in the C:\WINNT\INF directory that are not related to the cards I have, but I also deleted the nVidia related.....
So I rebooted again, installed the nVidia drivers again (have tried old versions too) and again, nothing!, now I got really MAD
I know, I know, I should have just reinstalled the entire freaking Win2000 at this time, but I hate reinstalling and I won't be beaten by Microsoft
At this point, my brain was cooking now, I went to the hardware wizzard and choose to remove the ACPI-compliant-system-driver (translated from Dutch so it can differ a bit), and again another reboot.....
Now Windows got MAD at me!?!?!, it started to load a new ACPI compliant drivers and installed all the hardware over again, except for the nVidia drivers as they where deleted.....
Windows asked for the MSI CDrom a couple of times, but hey who am I to refuse this humbe request?
A dozen more reboots and all the drivers where installed again and the time had come to give the nVidia drivers another go....
After telling me to close the antivirus, don't know why? Never had any problems before! It asked me the same questions as you all get and seemed to install.....another reboot, yep Billy is very keen on rebooting
What the ?????, they work!!!!!
Gee man (woman), I have beaten the beast!
I hope this description will help others who have problems switching cards, you can allway's try this approach.
I learned from this experiance that the PnP in Windows is junk and you really need to remove the HAL to get it working again, next time I will go straight for this baby in order to get a good recognision of the hardware involved.
As Windows does strange things when this happens, it will even tell you that files are damaged or missing, when they are not....
I'm not sure if it will work in XP, but it does in Win2000.....give it a shot before you decide to reinstall....
As I think reinstalling doesn't get you anywhere and won't solve your problems, I know this is hard stuff, but you really feel pleased afterwards when you managed to solve it.
Bas.
BTW, I still don't like APIC 1.1/1.4, never used it on a single CPU and never will as it's faking you on interrupts
Check your BIOS start screen and you will find all the proof you need
To remove the HAL, you first need to go to the hardware device listing, there you look under system how your system is listed.
On my system this is ACPI Compliant System.
Then you go to the hardware wizzard and choose the option remove a device, after that you get a screen with lot's of devices, there you find the same (allmost) devicename, then you choose to remove that one.
After you reboot, wait a little as Windows seems to go nuts, just follow thru and you will have a brand new configured system.
Then try to install the devices that didn't want to install in the first place, you might be so lucky that they do install then.

Hi,
Check if PDF document has renderable text. Go to Tools -> Text Recognition -> In This File.
Then you should be able to copy the text from PDF.

When I try to connect to wi-fi, it asks for the password, but I got this question. If you don't know the password, check with the Wi-Fi network administrator, but I don't know how.

Hi All,
When I try to connect to wi-fi, it asks for a password. Then I got this question. If you don't know the password, check with the Wi-Fi network administrator, but how do I find the network administrator.

Okay Im thinking I made a mistake, I purchased and ipad 2 and now don't know what to do with it. I turned it on and it won't do anything but show the plug and itune symbol? Can someone tell me what to do?

I don't know what to do with my ipad2?

I'm guessing you did not buy the iPad from Apple. If you did not buy it from Apple, it may very well have an older software version. Only iOS 5 or later is PC independent. If you have an earlier version, a computer with iTunes loaded is required.

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?

I just downloaded a Karaoke file and now I don't know what to do with it or how to use it.

I just downloaded a Karaoke file and now I don't know what to do with it or how to use it.
I'm very new at the whole i-tunes idea and would consider myself a total amature!!

All I'm really looking for is a way to sing karaoke songs at home as a rehearsal in case I go out sometime.
I thought the iTunes version would have lyrics or that I could move it with lyrics into a Karaoke program that I downloaded.
Alas, this is beginning to seem like an impossibility.

My macbook pro will not boot. It gets the grey screen with the apple until the bar is half way across and then shuts down. The only screen I can get to is in safe mode and I don't know what to do with that

Try This...
Close All Open Apps... Sign Out of your Account... Perform a Reset... Try again...
Reset ( No Data will be Lost )
Press and Hold the Sleep/Wake Button and the Home Button at the Same Time...
Wait for the Apple logo to Appear...

My itunes library is constantly resetting itself. I really don't know what is wrong with it I have ran virus checks and nothing is on my laptop. Anybody got any idea?

Hi my itunes library is constantly disappearing, I really don't know what is wrong. It keep happening everytime I turn my laptop off, I thought I had solved the problem the other week however it has started back up again. I have a Sony Vaio laptop and have read on the discussions that this can occur but all the solutions I have read haven't seemed to solve it. Anybody else got an idea? I would be really grateful for the help!

See this post. Seems that AVG is the most likely cause. They are promising a patch tomorrow.

Question about items I found for my iBook that I don't know what to do with

As stated above, I have an iBook that I've had for several years and I cannot use it anymore to go online as routers aren't accepted in my household. I recently found a plastic bag with a new USB cable, a phone line cable and a new battery Pegatron Model:PB013 with my computer things and I don't know what it is for since I never had occasion to use it. Can anyone tell me what to do with these things? I do know that they came with the iBook but at the time we bought it, we were never interested in what it is for. If anyone can tell me the use for it, I would appreciate it and if there really isn't a use for these items, I will just throw them away. I would love to be able to go online with my iBook but spouse doesn't believe in routers, says then others can get into your info even though I know that isn't true. Any help would be appreciated.

Hello and welcome to the support community.
First of all, routers are not accepted in your household? So how do you get online?
In order to use broadband Internet you need a router.
You iBook would have been supplied with the following items when it was new.
1. Power Adapter
2. Power Cord
2. Modem Lead (While telephone lead used for dial-up Internet via a phone line)
3. VGA adapter to allow an external screen to be used.
No USB lead were supplied and the only battery supplied with your iBook would be that attached to the bottom of the iBook. (White)
A USB lead could have been supplied with other devices like printers, scanners, cameras or phones.
There are four ways you can get online with your iBook G4
1. Connection via Ethernet to a router.
3. Wireless via installed Airport Card to a wireless router
4. Dial-up modem (What the white phone lead is for)
6. USB 3G dongle (Or connection using a cell/mobile phone that's compatible)
I hope this helps
