Any idea why my MBP fan would make a fluttering sound?

     All of a sudden, sounds like the fan is fluttering. Sound is constant unless my MBP is asleep or turned off.

Apple hadn't yet incorporated sudden motion sensor technology in their hard drives.    Keep the machine level flat when using it to ensure long life on the hard drives except of course when the machine is shut down.

  • Any ideas why some boxes/domains would get "access denied" on nmConnect?

    I have four boxes running NodeManager, with 2-3 domains on each box. I want to be able to use WLST to connect to the NodeManager on each box, to perform certain operations. On each box, I've created each domain using the same process (it's entirely possible I missed a step somewhere). The application deployed to each of these domains (the same application is deployed) appears to be working ok. The admin console also works perfectly fine. I can stop and start managed servers from the console.
    I execute wlst on each box exactly the same way. At each prompt, I enter a fully-qualified "nmConnect()" call, specifying the user, pwd, machine, nmport, domain name, domain path, and "ssl". I've verified all of these field values (like the password) many times. On all but one of these boxes, the result of this call is:
    Traceback (innermost last):
    File "<console>", line 1, in ?
    File "<iostream>", line 1379, in nmConnect
    WLSTException: "Error occured while performing nmConnect : Cannot connect to Node Manager.Access to domain '<domain name>' for user 'weblogic' denied Use dumpStack() to view the full stacktrace"
    I've carefully examined any meaningful differences between these domains, and I can't see anything that might cause this. Of the four domains, two of them are in production mode, and the other two are not. The only one that does not fail the connection is not in production mode (but note that the other that is not in production mode also fails).
    What else could be the cause of this?

    At first I thought this was working fine. It now works fine from WLST. Unfortunately, the admin console now fails to see the nodemanager. I even tried restarting the admin server. No luck.
    I then copied back the old nm_password.properties file (I made a backup first) and now WLST fails, but the admin console can see the nodemanager, so it's back to where it was.
    What's curious is that the contents of the properties file after wlst hashed it was different from the original hashed value, and the wlst-hashed value was very odd. The original hashed value ended with "0\=" at the end of the line. After I replaced the "hashed" property with the cleartext properties "username" and "password" and then ran wlst, the new contents of the "hashed" property was in TWO lines, where the first line ended with "0\=" as before, but the next line contained the last five characters of the password value that I entered. I tried this on three different boxes, and the behavior was the same, with respect to the odd hashing.

  • Any idea why a web application would cause Firefox to crash with signiture "nsJSScriptTimeoutHandler::cycleCollection::UnmarkPurple(nsISupports*)"?

    When testing a .net web application repeatedly we run into the same crash in Firefox. It doesn't happen on any general control, but any of the divs that are used as buttons. Also doesn't happen every time, can take hours before it is seen again, but always seems to be the same signature

    Forgot to include system details, in case they're of some use:
    Acer Extensa 4420 (laptop);
    AMD Athlon 64 x 2 Dual Core Processors TK-57, 1.90 GHz;
    Windows Vista Home Premium, 32-bit, SP2 (aka the Fischer Price version);
    Firefox 5.0;

  • MBP retina won't recognize Lexar USB 3.0 reader.  Any ideas why?

    USB ports mount regular USB devices on MBP Retina but will not recognize cards/reader.  Card reder is a Lexar Professional USB 3.0 Dual Slot Reader Reader. Any idea why it is not recognized?
    thanks

    Welcome to being a Beta tester but whatever you do call Apple HQ and give them **** for they make a big thing about how their products simply work. Well it does not. I have a problem with USB 3.0 with my PCIe card on my MacPro is a way I do not have with the same card on my HP Z800.
    Apple customer support are good but don't let them get off the hook. I cancelled my Retina because I began to read problem with USB 2.0 and other problems.
    However I do have an idea there are Thunderbolt breakout boxes that offer USB3.0 and eSATA too. Maybe that will do the trick BUT for Apple to have a USB3.0 issue is disgraceful when my ugly HP simply works. Seriously this is not new technology.
    It's Apple not Lexar who need to own this problem. Far to expensive for this and Lexar are hardly unknown.

I saw a thread saying to purchase the newest software (that was posted a few years ago) I paid 4.95 for the software and it's still saying it can't be updated.  Am I just SOL??

    The 1G iPod can only go as high as 3.1.3. The 1G does not have an internal speaker or volume buttons on the upper left edge.

  • Do you have any ideas why Motion 5 would run slow on a computer? I have an Imac with 8Gigs of ram, and plenty of hard drive space, but it still gives me the beach ball when I add a few lights and effects. I'm at the end of my rope.

    You probably don't really need 1080 at 60 for your finished projects but since you're just starting out with Motion, you need to lower your expectations. A long way. 1080 is about 2 million pixels per frame, DV is only about 400,000. That's not just five times as many pixels for the Mac to track; everything in video is exponential.
    Explore the training tutorials available by Mark Spencer. You will get an idea of how his super powerful machine reacts with the software.
    Adding a light roughly doubles the processing time over flat scenes. Two lights increases processing again. Reflections require processing the lights and then calculating the reflections so add another quarter of the time required for flat scenes. Add camera movement, motion blur, and depth of field and you need exponentially more processing time for every frame. The preload of renders into RAM is one of the cooler features of Motion, as comapred to After Effects, but that takes tons of time, to.
    Try working in ye olde DV resolution for a few days. Get to know the software's limitations and what gets imposed by your Macintosh. Step up to 720p/30 and see how things slow down.

  • On two occassions, all contacts were wiped off the Ipad. Any ideas why this would happen?

    On two occassions, all Contacts were wiped off the Ipad 2. Any ideas why this would happen?

    Did it happen during a sync or did they just disappear?  After they were gone, we you able to retrieve them during syncing?  Are you using any 3rd party apps to access your contacts or just the built-in Contacts app?
    In any case, I've not heard of or expeienced this on my iPhone 3G (synced with Outlook and now Google) or my iPad, although I've only had my iPad for a short time.

  • I just upgraded my software to OS X 10.9.2 (13C64) and i can no longer use my printer (epsun stylus sx235w).  any ideas why this would happen?

    i just upgraded my software to OS X 10.9.2 (13C64) and i can no longer use my printer (epsun stylus sx235w).  any ideas why this would happen?

    Mavericks is the name of your operating system. It is otherwise known as OSX 10.9.
    The previous versions were indeed "cat things".
    The way you would know if you need to download new software from Epson is to go the Epson website and search for your printer there, look for downloads, and see if they have new software listed for 10.9.
    You can revert your system back to what it was two weeks ago. This would be easier to do if you have a backup that you made prior to installing Mavericks (like with Time Machine). If you don't have a backup (sounds like you probably don't), you can look here for some directions about how to go back to the "Cat Thing" that you had prior to installing Mavericks: How to revert OS X back from Mavericks: Apple Support Communities
    If all of this is too hard for you, you could take your Mac in to your Apple store and ask them to help you.

  • Changes that i make to song display in iTunes, will not carry over when I sync to my ipad. This is only since i upgraded to ios7 and downloaded the latest itunes. Any ideas why?

    I use my iPad for music when i teach my dance class. The default layout in the music program on iPad is: song title, artist and album. I need the name of the dance, so in iTunes, I right click on the song title, then choose "get Info".  I then edit the info and under album title I write in the dance name. Then when i sync the iPad still has the same three columns, but the info i need displays under the album column.  UNTIL i upgraded to ios7 and installed the latest iTunes.  When I synced last night, after adding new music, the songs that were already in the playlist, stayed the same. ALL the new songs were placed in the playlist but none of the info that i edited synced.  It shows it as i want it when i look at the playlist in iTunes, but it does not carry over after the sync. 
    I hope this makes sense and does anyone have any idea why?

    Amazing! I'm a dance instructor and am doing the exact same thing as you - and not seeing what I need on my iPad Air ... I can't believe there has been no reply on this! I also can't believe there isn't an easy way of seeing track info in the iPad or iPhone but I've spent hours searching and am not finding anything

  • I bought and downloaded a movie to my macair and it showed in my library yesterday. Today however i can not find it. Any idea why that would be? I did buy it and not rent FYI

    I bought and downloaded a movie to my macair and it showed in my library yesterday. Today however i can not find it. Any idea why that would be? I did buy it and not rent FYI

    OK, I think I understand what's happening.
    Movies are now stored in iCloud: see http://www.apple.com/itunes/inside-itunes/2012/03/movies-now-available-on-icloud .html
    So they may take a while to download to your Mac.  Movies are big, after all.
    I believe you can guarantee the movie stays on your Mac by going to Preferences (in the iTunes menu at the top), and going to the "Advanced" tab, and checking "Copy files to iTunes media folder when adding to library".
    Hope that helps!

  • Any idea why mail.app would be using over 2 gigs of RAM???

    App: Mail.app
    % CPU: 66.2
    Threads: 16
    Real Mem: 2.33 GB
    Any idea why? I mean it's just sitting there behind my other applications. I'm not doing anything with it other than waiting for incoming mail...

    My mail is using more than 2G of RAM as well. Usually starts out ok, but eventually (within a day or 2), it is using 2 of 4G of RAM and brings my mac to a grinding halt where there is a 30-60 second delay (spinning beachball) every time I click something (link in safari, file on hard drive, etc.) At these times, mail will not quit normally and needs to be force quit. Other apps stop responding for short periods of time too.
    No out of the ordinary use of Mail, just checking/writing email. No vpn or exchange server.
    Does anyone know why this keeps happening and how to stop it? Reboot helps, but problem comes back. Thank you.
