Anybody out there knows whats wrong?

I was using my Macbok a couple of nights ago, then, when i was finished working on my Theses and decided to go to bed, realized the gadget would not shut down. it went through the cycle, went off and then rebooted. It did this several times, went on line, followed all the instructions that were related to how to deal with the issue, but no luck.
Ran disk utility and everything checked fine.
then, as if by a strike of terrible luck, realized that it would shut down and stay if the mag safe was connected.
So, feeling smart, decided to let the computer sit for the night just to make sure no problem stayed on.
As of now it wont start. Nothing, followed the instructions on the manual and nothing. removed battery, replaced back and tried every single keystroke combination possible.
Called support and was refered to a repair shop.
the problem is that the guy there (in monterrey, méxico) without even looking at it, said its the motherboard.
??????????? Anybody has had a same situation, please tell me its not the motherboard!

whatodo wrote:
hopefully it will turn out ok. But I would still want to know if this has happened previously and anybody knows why,
When you mentioned removing and then replacing the battery.... did you try and start it with the battery removed?
The battery is not just a battery... it contains some electronic components.. a shorted battery or battery component failure -might- possibly cause this scenario.
First thing I'd do is try it with a different battery.

  • Does anybody out there know what this means, or indicates?

    One of the ongoing problems I have with Logic Express 9. 01 is every so often, sometimes more than once a day, the program will just crash. It takes the form of losing audio, even though I can see that signal is passing back and forth between my keyboard, the Apogee Ensemble and the computer. All of a sudden, total loss of sound. Buffer is set to 256, but this doesn't seem to make a difference. Lately I've taken to having Console mounted so I can watch the messages it logs as I'm playing. Very interesting. Anyway, this is the message:
    10/27/09 5:33:00 PM [0x0-0x12a12a].com.apple.logic.express[6253] Tue Oct 27 17:33:00 richard-strachans-imac.local Logic Express[6253] <Error>: kCGErrorIllegalArgument: CGSRemoveTrackingArea: Invalid window 0x0
    I distinctly heard a sharp click, and then the sound was gone. this was the last message logged as it clicked. I hear the new 10.6.2 update will fix bugs in Core Audio. Is this one of them?
    Thanks,
    Rick

    Can't offer any solution, but just to chime in and say I'm having a similar problem with Logic Pro 9.0.2 on an iMac Core 2 Duo. Running Snow Leopard 10.6.2.
    I'm using an Apogee Duet. I doubt this is caused by Firewire chipsets, as my same hardware and software setup ran fine without this problem, for months before I upgraded to Logic 9 (from Logic 8). (And also under Leopard.) This only appeared after upgrading to Logic 9.
    What happens is Logic 9 will randomly crash (thankfully it autosaves the current project as it does so), and the only clue I have as to what has happened is the console reporting the same error the OP reported:

    I have an iMac that has iTunes on it.
    My iPad is a first gen but its almost upto date, I haven't updated it for about a month.
    If anyone out there has some information I would appreciate it a lot.
    I am only doing this as iBooks isn't working
    Thanks in advance.

    Removing the SC Folder worked for me. But as an after thought and another potential problem although I do not think it is related, I had movies authorized thru my wifes Apple ID and she changed her ID a couple weeks ago. This, I think, could have had a contributing factor although not sure.
    You have to delete the SC Folder and then reboot and then go into iTunes, re-authorize if it asks, then I was able to sync the movies. Hope this helps a little.

(going to the App Store and searching "FaceTime" brings apps that have icons different to that of my iPads!)

    Yeah, I know I can restore it, but I might as well go ahead and try. I just finished a backup for icloud and itunes to make sure, I'll go ahead and restore it and set it up as new and see how that works. Seems like I have no other options at this point, I'd still like to know what they did with the Download tab in itunes store, if they removed it or if I'm just overlooking it.

  • Is anybody out there who knows the steps to set up Logic Express? with an Alesis iO|26 interface

    Is anybody out there who knows the steps to set up Logic Express 9 (scores) with an Alesis iO|26 interface to input notes by playing
    an electric guitar? Thank you for your time and patience.

    And i fount this
    PETERSON SONUUS-G2M MIDI-KONVERTER
    ok this one could sendout your guitar sound as a MIDI data but only monophone.
    Thats what i see as a big computation problem ( when you play your simple C7 there are
    at least 10 important parameter that describe your C7 chord; but if you play monophone
    theese small boxes can convert it).
    Have you tried anny MIDI guitar?
    I saw some "usb" guitars transmiting midi signal into
    software synth on some computer.

  • Is anybody out there who knows about titles in Adobe elements

    I have nothing but problems with the titles into Adobe elements Souris anybody out there can help me?

    danielo
    Thanks for the reply. Let us try the Crop way with keyframing described in another way.....
    1. Are you OK with creating the 4 lines of text  in the opened Titler and closing the Titler to have the created title on the Timeline?
    (This is 4 lines created by typing continuously the 4 lines rather than creating 4 separate lines of text.)
    2. After the Titler is closed, you want to apply the Crop effect to the Timeline title (open fx Effects Tab, go to Transform/Crop, and drag the thumbnail for
    Crop into the Timeline title).
    3. Now we are going to edit the Crop effect that was just applied. For that, click on the title on the Timeline to selected/highlighted, and go to
    Applied Effects Tab/Applied Effects Palette/Crop Panel expanded.
    At this point, you should see
    Your next objective is to move the Bottom slider in the Crop Panel expanded to establish what you see on screen across
    the duration of the title. We need to use the technique of keyframing to do that. If we did not and just set the Crop's
    Bottom slider to hide the last three lines, we would just see the first line across the video duration and never see
    the last three line. It would look like
    Are you OK so far with what needs to be done. If so, I will go through keyframing of the Crop effect.
    Keyframing
    Refer back to the first screenshot
    1. Use the -+ slider above the Timeline to expand the Timeline to get a better look at its content (the title).
    Right click the title to which the Crop effect has been applied. Select Show Clip Keyframes/Crop and Bottom.
    Now every time you create a keyframe (to reveal another line) where you have placed the Timeline Indicator, you will see a white dot on the orange band that
    runs through the title clip
    2. In the Crop Panel expanded, focus on the "Bottom" slider. Move that "Bottom" slider to the right, hiding the last 3 lines of text.
    Have the Timeline Indicator at the start of the Timeline.
    Click on the Toggle Animation icon in the Crop Panel expanded area as point out in post 8 screenshot.
    3. Move the Timeline Indicator to the right to an envisioned 25% mark along the clip, move the "Bottom" slider to the left to reveal
    the second line of text. You will see a white dot (keyframe) automatically placed on the Timeline orange band at that 25% point.
    4. Move the Timeline Indicator to the right to an envisioned 50% mark along the clip, move the "Bottom" slider to the left to reveal
    the third line of text. You will see a white dot (keyframe) automatically placed at that Timeline 50% point.
    5. Move the Timeline Indicator to the right to an envisioned 75% mark along the clip, move the "Bottom" slide to the left to reveal
    the fourth line of text. You will see a white dot (keyframe) automatically placed at that Timeline 75% point.
    After you press the Render button above the Timeline, what does that look like when played back in the Edit area monitor?
    These keyframes are adjustable.
    Please review and consider and then let me know if you are OK with this version. If not, please let me know where I need
    to clarify or re-write.
    Thanks.

  • Secure link to itunes store failed computer not connected to internet tried ununininstalling everything to do with itunes no joy also error code coming up E0000225 anybody out there got any ideas

    Secure link to itunes store failed, (computer not connected to internet tried uninstalling everything to do with itunes,no joy also errror code E0000225 appearing. Have turned off windows firewall and also my Bullguarg security settings.Can anybody out there please help me thanks.

    Hi,
    You could be right that the response to clicking on help is a symptom of an entirely separate issue, but nevertheless the secure link to itunes is definitely failed, and I am unable to log into Itunes on either PC.
    I also noticed that even if I click on the link to create a whole new Apple ID, I cannot do that either, presumably because the secure link is not working.
    After I noticed that there were weird things happening this morning, I did change my Apple ID password in the hope that this might resolve it, but it seemed to make it worse.  Now, all of my apple devices keep constantly prompting me for the apple ID password, and randomly either accepting it, or telling me it is wrong.  I know the password is correct because I can log onto the apple Manage My Apple ID screens in a web browser with it.
    I was starting to think that this is an ISP issue (BT Broadband), but I have not seen anyone else posting with the same issue.  Does Apple use a different security protocol to everyone else?  I'm asking because all other secure services seem to be working fine, but anything related to apple that requires a secure connection or authentication is having issues.
    I have also seen reference to making sure that Itunes is listed as an allowed program in Windows Firewall.  I cannot seem to do this because it says that my Windows firewall is being managed by McCafee.  I have checked the settings in McCafee, and it appears to me that Itunes, Bonjour, and many other apple programs have been granted "Full" access.  As said before in any case I have tried temporarily disabling the firewall and even this did not solve the problem.

  • Anybody out there other than myself that has done OCS certifications and are NOT part of OPN?

    Anybody out there (other than myself) that has done OCS certifications and are NOT part of OPN?
    I had done a few of these just to get introduced to new concepts.
    When there is both a OCE and an OCS certification for a subject, I strive to stick with the OCE.
    What are people experiences?
    Thanks Roger

    I don't actually qualify for your first condition since my employer is an Oracle Partner.  That said, I don't take OCS exams in order to gain gold stars for my employer.
    OCS exams are the least technically-oriented of the certification types. They are aimed at salespeople and integrators that need to be able to talk about Oracle products and sound reasonably well-informed in doing so.  The exams I've taken have all been much more focused towards the fact that a given feature exists and the functionality it has than with implementing said feature in the real world. That is not to say that the information you have to learn to pass OCS exams is not valuable. It's good to know what the capabilities of Oracle products are. I have been asked by my current and former employers about the advisability of incorporating feature 'X' into our solutions. Preparing for OCS-level exams can give you insight into how (or if) given capabilities of Oracle products can help (or not) in a given situation.
    That said, OCP and OCE certifications are much more valuable when you actually want to learn how to make use of the various Oracle technologies.

    This is a "teaser" series to sell his tutorials but it is really good. Just saw it yesterday for the first time.
    While all you want is just to place pins, realize that Motion has so much more. All kinds of effects and they can be really customized. Maybe put their street address, contact name, and phone number by the pin?
