A Series Of Issues

1. My cursor seems to be flickering.
2. The left shift button works, but not for the I key.
3. My most important concern: for some reason my computer is having trouble going to sleep. When i close the display, the computer goes to sleep, but then i hear the sound of the drive starting back up (the sound you hear when you open the display and wake the computer) multiple times before i even open it back up. This is killing my battery every time.
4.When i click one of the drop menus on top of the display, the menu to the right of it opens and it continues to do so in a wave like pattern around the top of the screen until i click something else.

Sounds like an issue with the connection between your trackpad/keyboard and the main board inside your MacBook. You should contact AppleCare and they will most likely tell you to send it in to them so they can repair it for you.

  • A series of issues with my new G580

    Hi, 
    I bought my new G580 I5 (Ivy Core), in July.  
    In the past few weeks I've exerienced a series of issues. I don't know if they are connected - I was wonderfin if anyone can tell me and the causes.
    1) On boot up I received a message each time saying that dsk chck failed due to newly installed software (I hadn't installed anything new before this came up). I tried to reseach solutions but nothing worked for me and as I was told it wasn't essential to fix, I left it a while.
    2) A message popped up saying 'IAStorIcon' has stopped working. (Don't know what that is or what it does)
    3) I turned on my laptop a few days later to say that boot up had failed and that windows needed to repair itself. It then did it's thing and rebooted and windows opened. However, with absolutely no sound. I tried everything to get it working but it wouldnt work. It said the drivers to the sound card were working but it appeared that they weren't.
    The bluetooth function also stopped wrking at this point. 
    Nothin I tried restored the functions.
    4) I tried windows repairs etc. With no success I did a system restore and the above functions resumed. However, the system seems slower and less responsive, 
    Can anyone help me with what's going on here?
    I bought my laptop in the UK but I live in the Dominican Republic, so access to warranty services are not so easy. 'll be back in the UK in February so if I can keep it going til then at least, I'll be happy as I rely on the laptop for work. 
    Thanks

    Ermh!
    THE most extraordinary thing happened.
    I installed iTunes on my laptop, hooked up my iPod, checked the box for manual music handling. And nothing appeared to be wrong whatsoever! I tried it with my Dimension, and there were no complications there either.
    I mean, what the F??! :D:D
    Freaky business...

  • G570 INTEL CHIPSET SERIES 6 issue?

    Hello,
    I have been experiencing problems with booting sometimes it takes literally hours to boot, sometimes I gave up.  I then used the onekey system to reinstall the operating system, I have updated the OS, Win 7, with latest patches..  It now boots provided there is no disk in the DCD drive. However the DVD is only recognised occassionally for short periods.  The DVD does not show in the device manager.  There are no references to upper or lower filters in the registry.
    I read somewhere this may be a symptom of chipset series 6 issue.  Here is a link which shows that my laptop has this chipset. http://mobilesupport.lenovo.com/us/en/documents/ht036727 .
    How can I tell if this is the case?

  • Audigy 2 series - Memory issues

    Audigy 2 series - Memory issues? Hello,
    after mailing the support my problem and asking for a driver update I just got this semi-automated "we dont care"-notice, saying my audigy 2 (zs) was older than 3 years and not supported anymore and therefor would not receive driver updates. Thing that keeps me wondering is that the last driver version got released july 2009, which is also WAY past the "3 years"-mark, so is there still hope to complain again about this very issue or has Creative really abandoned this great card?
    The issue im experiencing is whats also described in this unofficial FAQ I found within these forums saying the drivers don't support more than 4 GB of RAM (Windows XP 64), which I just figured out myself the hard way as well. Lowering the memory amount to 4GB is DEFINITELY NOT an option!
    Are there possibly any unofficial drivers tackling this issue or is this now Creative's way to force me to buy a newer sound card and hope the driver developers didn't fail as hard with them drivers as they did with the audigy drivers? (I mean really? Not capable of "real" 64bit support? in 2009? Hello?)
    Any feedback is greatly appreciated

    #Re: Audigy 2 series - Memory issuest Truely sad is the drivers I got from Creative did not work for me.
    I had first search, find, and use Danel's drivers.
    As for being old, my old Audigy 2 ZS Plat. card died last month. Knowing how much I love that sound card, my girlfriend bought me a new one from an online store and gave it to me for Christmas along with Windows 7 64-bit and more memory.
    She is a computer nerd like me.
    Anyway, the fact is they are still being sold new today.
    No support for a newly purchased producted?
    Now I hear these problems have existed since Vista.
    What gives?
    By the way Audigy 2 ZS Plat was (still is if creative fixes the drivers) the best sound card on the market. For $70 you can get virtually the same hardware. As far as I can tell X-Fi hardware is the same as the Audigy 2, only rebadged. Most the features you do not get are dependent on the sofware, features are turned on or off depending on the card's hardware ID, not that the card can not support the features. The extra $25+ is not worth it in my mind.

  • Vertex O Series- memory issues

    We are working with Vertex and are increasing our databases the longer we work with Vertex.  Recently, we have had several hard stops with increased usage (such as testing, training, and data loads all at once). 
    Our SAP implementation is going in this year and I am looking to learn from someone who has O series with SAP stabilized.
    Do you have it loaded on same partition in SAP?
    Are you running reports on it?
    What memory have you allocated to it?
    Thanks,
    Michelle

    Hi Michelle,
    I do not know "O Series", but I guess you are talking on the Vertax tax product, perhaps the report feature for the tax office ...
    Do you have trouble with the Vertex RFC client or do you have trouble with the report feature "only" ?
    btw: Vertex is RFC attached to SAP => you can run it on ANY platform like windows etc. -> as vertex iSeries skills are limited, I would strongly at least think on, moving the vertex interface to Windows or Linux, whatever you prefer. I wouldn't be surprised when this "heals" all your current issues.

  • How I Met Your Mother Series 3 issue

    I now this is fairly old now but does anyone know why Series 3 is only availabe as individual Episodes (therefore csting c£40).  All prior and subsequent series are available as a setries pavk (c£10)?

    Just recieved this from iTunes Store Support:
    Missy here. I am a Senior Advisor from the iTunes Store. Your request has been escalated to me by Irish.
    I understand you have some concerns regarding the numbering of the episodes for "How I Met Your Mother, Season 3". I can certainly appreciate your concerns and I'm happy to offer some additional information about this.
    Episode 17, is a music video that accompanies the episode "Sandcastles In the Sand" however it is not available on the UK iTunes Store. This is why 17 has been omitted.
    Apple is constantly expanding the iTunes Store's catalog of music, audiobooks, videos, and movies. To ensure that your request is considered, please submit it through the Request page at:
    http://www.apple.com/feedback/itunes.html
    This solves the issue. I have filed a request to get the music video added to the iTunes which hopefully it does, completing Season 3 of How I Met Your Mother.

  • Purchased Samsung 63 plasma 8000 series ghosting issues

    I purchased a 63 Samsung 3D plasma 8000 series in 2/10 and the picture is fantastic, but I seem to be having ghosting issues when people move on the screen or with fast moving scenes.  I had a pioneer 50 plasma that was 5 years old that did not have this problem with people only blurring with fast moving scenes like sports.  The people and scenes are clear it's just the edges seem to be blurring or ghosting.  Is this normal or is there something I can adjust?  It is really irritating to me.  I thought this TV was supposed to be an improvement with blurring or ghosting but at present it seems to be worse.  Please advise.
    Solved!

    what was it's original function. 
    Motion Judder or Blur Reduction (named differently depending on brands of TV) is used to help compensate for the natural blur some content has. Unless you are watching something in its default recording such as 24p you will have at least some motion blur. Once again this is blur that is in the content not something plasmas technically have like LCD's are susceptible to. 
    So what does it do or supposed to do:
    A standard video signal is actually a series of still images, flashed on screen so quickly that we believe we are watching a moving image. The typical frame rate used in North America is 60 frames per second (60Hz) meaning that a TV would display 60 individual still images every second. Sub-field drive is the method used to flash the individual image elements (dots) on a plasma panel. For each frame displayed on the TV the Sub-field drive flashes the dots 10 times or more, meaning that the dots are flashing 600 times per second (600Hz) or more. (Example: 60 frames per second x 10 sub-fields = 600 flashes per second). TV's will try to compensate content judder by inserting more sub-fields into the image. However it tends to have mixed results. Sometimes it works sometimes it completely fails and sometimes it overcompensates.
    I personally have a Panasonic plasma and I keep the blur reduction off.

  • TV series purchase issue

    Hi,
    I purchased 'Celebrity Juice' series 10, but can only download eps 1-4. 5 onwards state I need to purchase.
    Support tell me I only purchased eps 1-4.  However if this was the case why does the series purchase button state "purchase", and I have no option to "complete series"...?
    The only reason I purchased was because it said "series for £6..."
    Any help would be great!
    Cheers,
    Kev

    Are the other episodes available in your country yet ? If it's a new series and the episodes haven't aired yet then they may not be in the store.
    If they are then try the Store > Check For Available Downloads menu option to see if that downloads them, or see if they show under the Purchased link under Quicklinks on the right-hand side of the iTunes store homepage on your computer's iTunes for downloading (TV programmes won't show there in all countries).

  • New T430s with a series of issues

    My T430s just arrived two days ago with very few of the drivers installed, more prominently the touchpad and track point drivers, which I was able to easily resolve but such careless production was not something that I expected from Lenovo. However, it has now become apparent that three significant manufacturing issues must also be dealt with that are beyond my control:
    1- Very, very limited battery life: Clocks 2h 58min a few minutes after fully charged with hardly anything running in the background (only chrome window and typical windows background processes). I find this very unreasonable and infuriating.
    2- CPU process running at near full capacity coupled with fan noise: After pressing Ctrl + Alt + Delete it is indicated that my CPU is consistently operating between 80-90% capacity with basically nothing running. Furthermore, I believe that this deficiency is responsible for the noticable fan noise being emitted from the laptop although I am not certain. 
    3- Supposedly limited physical memory: Again, after reaching Task Manager I am also notified that I have used up 45% of Physical Memory when I have 401 GB of 450 GB free on my C Drive,
    I am very concerned about these problems and I would like to know how to seamlessly get them resolved. Beyond these issues, my T430s is a phenomenal laptop, but these issues are a total deal breaker. 
    Thank you very much. 

    What OS are you using?  Sounds like Win 7.  That should be good for you since Lenovo's Power Manager is only available for WIin 7,
    In your last post, the hyperlink points toward the battery thread that did not really describe the real problem with the panasonic battery.  The panasonic battery was not very stable and would cause unexpected hard crashes with 35-40% power remaining.  Obviously, continued hard crashes is not good for any OS.
    If you are using Win 7, Lenovo's latest Power Manager will automatically switch between two modes.  One is for battery life.and sets the capacity closer to 38wh.  The other is for battery performance and sets the capacity closer to 44wh.
    Look at the task manager under the processes tab.  Set the sort by CPU% the in real time.  You should be able to isolate the abnormal processes that use the most CPU utilization.when the total spikes up to 95%.
    Also, you should check your device manager to see if any devices have a yellow or red warning,  This would indicate either a faulty hardware component or corrupt driver.
    Lastly, I get about 6-7 hours of battery life with the six cell battery.  See my post on maximizing battery life for the T430S

  • Default excise group and series group issue

    Hi Gurus
    I have a doubt. Is it possible to maintain the default excise group and series group in this order
    sales org     dis chnl    division    ship pt    plant    excise group    series group
    1000               EX         CD             1000     1000       10                       A1
    1000               EX         CD             1000     2000       20                       A2
    i tried this combination, but getting the error message that a key already exists....The header data sales area and shipping point already exists.... I cant understand why we cant give the same sales area and shipping point for a new plant combination
    Thanks in advance
    Mathan

    Hi Mathan,
    When we say Excise group then it is maintained for the plant as it is maintained with Excise authorities. We can have same shipping point for 2 different plants but the possibilities are less and when 2 plants share the resources and facilities then those plants are registered as a single excise entity with the authorities. That is the reason that the option of having the same sales area and shipping point as header data is not allowed for more than one excise group. This is more business related than SAP.
    Hope this clarifies the doubt.
    Regards,
    Antima

  • CS6 InDesign does not launch, gives a series of issue messages.

    I faced an issue to launch InDesign when opening an earlier file. Then as a fresh launch also it gives the same errors.
    It finally crashes, sometimes with a message that appears it could recover, by the time one can respond to it, it crashes!
    The sequence of screens is added here, with transliteration.
    First Message:
    C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Adobe InDesign
    CS6\Required\GROUP.RPLN is either not designed to run on Window
    or it contains an error. Try installing the program again using the

    software vendor for support.
    Second Message (after OK from first message)
    Cannot load the EPS PAGE ITEM.RPLN plug-in. It is dependent on the
    GROUP.RPLN plug-in, which failed to load. Please check
    documentation for the GROUP.RPLN plug-in.
    Third Message (after OK from second message)
    Cannot load the PDF.RPLN plug-in. It is dependent on the EPS PAGE
    ITEM.RPLN plug-in, which failed to load. Please check documentation
    For the EPS PAGE ITEM.RPLN plug-in.
    Fourth Message (after OK from third message) | When I was attempting dirct launch of an InDesign file
    Do you want to start automatic recovery?
    Click Yes to begin recovery.
    Click No to delete recovery data for all documents.
    Click Cancel to postpone all document recovery until later.
    Last "hopeful message" that still crashes! Notice both are in the same image!
    All help appreciated! Thanks.

    Finally the world is back on its track:
    ID launched and allowed creating a new file
    ID opened the earlier file without a crash, files opened with its typical messages of colorspace mismatch, font missing, links not having files... sometimes these messages feel good
    Re-installation has got things back. I had some doubts about these, but all works:
    - System was not restared at all during the uninstall and reinstall, magically it also kept track of serial number (so glad I did not have to hunt that out from records!)
    - No earlier windows restore point was required
    I am glad all is OK now, but "what" was the problem? And what made it to occur? Any ways to prevent such thing to happen again?
    Thanks.
