Battery level on my MBA 11" jumps up and down

Battery level indicator jumps up and down constantly - between 1 hr and 3:15. I am lucky to get an hour and a quarter of battery life. What happened to the 7 hrs? My MBA is just under a year old. Running Lion. I have done an SMC reset. Any thoughts?

See if the Apple article below helps.

Adobe Flash 16 and 17 cause safari & Firefox browsers to jump up and down the page

Running MAC Pro 2010 10.10.2 Yosemite - Version 15 of adobe Flash was working fine. When version 16 came out the problems started with web pages jumping up and down and not being able to type/ edit things as web page jumps up or down away??? I Used the adobe Uninstaller , restarted the MAC, looked for the files in the library adobe said to look for ( non were there) and tried to install Adobe ver 15 of flash
And it starts to install, then the install window turns BLACK then the error message says install failed?? Try again? I have tried this a few times and always the same message.
Any idea how to install this older version 15??

It's not really the politics -- we're all pretty friendly on an engineering level (the business stuff is competitive, but that's always the case), but in how serious the security landscape is. There are armies of people reverse-engineering and weaponizing bugs in all popular products (often times way more people than work on the products themselves), and the time it takes to reverse-engineer the patches in a current version to weaponize and use against older versions is really short now. If you're not staying updated, you're a sitting duck.
If you look at this from an immunology perspective, what we don't want is an epidemic, so just like we do with childhood diseases, we want to maintain herd immunity. If 95% of the population is patched, it's difficult to deploy malware that spreads like wildfire. If you have a population that never updates (it used to take about 6 months for the majority Flash users to pick up the latest version, now it's closer to 48 hours with background update), even attacks that you've already fixed remain viable for months. If attacks have a short shelf-life, this pushes up the cost of developing the attack to where it's out of reach for most bad actors.
The Extended Support Release I linked to above *is* an older version of Flash, but it has all the latest security updates. It also won't be blocked by Safari. If the problem goes away, it's something that we broke in a new feature. If it doesn't, it's fallout from a security change, and I'd like to get more info on how to reproduce it, so we can try and fix it for the next patch update.

Satellite A300 screen keeps jumping up and down

Hi,
What is on my screen keeps jumping up and down, any thoughts, is this a problem with video card in Satellite A300?

I have tried to install the display driver from the European website. During uninstallation I got a messgae to say failures occurred during uninstallation, and then during installation I got the message of Install package failure!
I have my external monitor now connected to laptop, but in personalising display settings, I cannot get my computer to recognise that I have two monitors now, as both keep coming up with number 1 (Multiple Monitors) on ATI Mobility Radeon HD 3650, and they both have that degraded view, a bit like in safe mode.
So in checking of device manager under display adapters I have:
ATI Mobility Radeon HD3650
and under Sound, video and game controllers I have:
High Definition Audio Device
Realtek High Definition Audio
In this whole process I deleted a file that was previously here called
ATI HMD...
should I resinstall this?
So I'm not sure if the new display driver has been installed? help.

FLV exported from PPro jumps up and down...

Hello... I'm exporting an FLV from Premiere Pro CS4 (Mac). When playing back on both Adobe Media Player and when posted on my website it jumps up and down periodically - the whole video pops upward several inches, then back down again, then up again...etc. Has anyone had this before? Ideas? Have played with export settings to no avail. Any help or suggestions most appreciated. Tx.

Thank you for all your replies. In examining my projects details more closely to post here (see below) I think I've had an "Aha" moment. It seems the jumping happens on the clips that the GenArts effects are applied to. (The video isn't up on the website as I didn't want to post it as long as this issue pertained. Will let you know if I get around to putting it up for entertainment...er...educational value...but right now would rather spend time sorting the problem out.;)
I think if I exported this Sequence and made another project with that clip as a whole unit THEN exported an FLV it would probably solve the jumping - IF it is indeed being caused by the effects. Although it always irks to have to add a bunch of steps....
Now - as CS4 doesn't export AVI from a MAC :-( (...does anyone know if CS5 does? It is a preferred format and I can't believe CS4 took it away...) what would be the best format to export as, keeping in mind I don't want to lose any quality... .mov? .mp4?
Export Settings
Format: FLV/FV4
Preset: FLV - Same as Source Flash 8 and Higher
Codec On2 VP6 (tried Sorenson Park…same prob. and lousy resolution…)
Frame Rate: Same as Source
Bitrate Encoding: VBR (tried CBR…same prob.)Encoding Passes: One (tried 2…same problem)
Bitrate: 1,500
Undershoot 90% target
Source footage is mostly .avi with an .mp4 for the logo at the end.
Audio is .wav
**Effects: Some brief Gen Arts Posterize, Edge Rays, Glint, Glare, Lens Flare. All applied individually, not layered on top of each other.**
(I will check with GenArts on the apparent affect of their effects.)
Thanks again for your input.

Why is youtube exports jumping up and down

I export my material into a variety of formats and, for instance, YouTube HD using the built-in presets.
When exporting to YouTube, something goes wrong, though, that the other formats doesn't have a problem with.
It's like the video is jumping up and down one line all the time.
If you want to see an example, please see:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mMQOJhaiRik
Can someone teach me how to avoid this, please?

After uploadin is the one you see in the link above. No change - it jumps up and down like the original file.
I use the standard preset for h264 / Youtube HD Widescreen and my footage is all full HD.
Be more specific. See my earliers question.

Flash videos and menu boxes jump up and down, what would cause this?

After installing Firefox 4, all flash videos and menu boxes jump up and down. I have removed and reinstalled the flash plug in to no avail. This does not affect the playback, just the border of the video or menu box. Other browsers do not do this. Just wondering why this happens?

OK, solved the problem...
I '''''DELETED''''' the file LOCALSTORE.RDF with FF closed. Restarted and everything was back to normal.

Why does the text jump up and down when I'm trying to read or click on something? It's damned annoying. How can I stop it

Home page or email page, the page jumps up and down at random and when I try to click on something I often miss and end up clicking something I don't want. It gets real annoying and I can't find where to stop it. Why did someone think to do this in the first place. I've learned new profanity because of it.

Jumping up and down

Would you take a look here: AXIA ADVOKATER
Although the blocks are placed the same on each page, they seem to jump up and down when going from one page to the next. What is going wrong here?

Is the bar on your master page? The jumping is the refresh because the bars are different colours and they also look to be out of (page width) alignment to me but I'd need to see the files to be sure.

Screen keeps jumping up and down but only when using firefox-so not a hardware problem

The screen keeps jumping randomly up and down but nothing is being touched or pressed. The screens can be email, you tube, bank or general internet screens, or even trying to create this page

Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).

When running Firefox with normal view with bookmarks and tabs the display for the tab is jumping up and down about 1/4 of inch - display is ok if used in full screen but when go back to normall havers again. this ony started happening last night after

Am having problems with display hovering in open tabs. I used Full screen last night when browsing for first time and since then when I go back to normal view the window shakes up and down about 1/4 inch and have to go to full screen for steady view. The toolbars are all steady it is only the web page.
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== Last night after using full screen.

Do you have any saved bookmarks on the Bookmarks Toolbar, or that that Toolbar empty and you have it being displayed??
Try opening View > Toolbars and click on the Bookmark Toolbar item to remove the check-mark, and then see how that affects that "jumping" or vertical oscillation of the UI.
If that doesn't solve your problem, you can try the Firefox SafeMode and verify that problem doesn't exist in that troubleshooting mode.

When I plug my iPad into a wall circuit and leave it for 18 hours the battery level only goes from 55% to 66% and then it quotes charging. Is this normal or do I have trouble with my adapter, it is the one that came with the iPad?

When I plug my Ipad into a wall circut it will not fully charge, It only charges up to 66% does anyone no why?

I can't tell you why it is doing this but it should not take anywhere near that long to recharge.
Try another power adapter if you have access to one - borrow one from a friend, try another wall socket, another cable ... take it to an Apple Store and let them try to charge it for you.
You can try resetting the iPad and see if that helps but I have my doubts - but it will not hurt anything either.
Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
Your battery gauge may be giving you an incorrect reading - but I think that would be a long shot as well. How many hours of use do you get at 66%?
You can read this about the iPad battery and how to maintain and care for the battery. .

Use Your iPad Regularly
For proper reporting of the battery’s state of charge, be sure to go through at least one charge cycle per month (charging the battery to 100% and then completely running it down).
