Hi,
battery of my BB fully discharged for first time since getting phone a few weeks ago
I plugged it into mains charger to charge it
first there is red LED light
then red LED started flashing 4 times
light stopped
a few seconds later 4 flashes again
and again...
device dead
no reaction on pressing or holding on-button
same story with USB charging
desktop manager didn't recognise device on USB port
(PC registers new HW BB...)
I tried with an another battery (same model, from other device)
everything works fine
I upgrade BB SW (using this borrowed battery)
and then tried again with 'old' battery
no sign of life
has anyone had the similar problem (4 times blinking etc.)

any suggestion?
thx

HP 6735s won't boot, power LED blinks 7 times

The HP 6735s laptop stopped working. Only sign of life, power LED flashes 7 times after on/off switch is pressed. What's wrong, experts?

Try a hard reset. Sometimes it works and is always the first step to take.
remove the battery and the ac adapter plug from the laptop.
press and hold the power button for fifteen seconds.
install either the battery or ac adapter power and press the power button to attempt a boot into the OS.
If that doesn't work then remove the hard disk to see if it gets past the splash screen and the BIOS whines that it can't find a bootable OS. That would indicate a hard disk failure.
Also worth tying is removing the memory module(s) from the DIMM slots and then reinstalling them. That reseats the modules and cleans some oxidation off the module pins (if there is any)
Another, perhaps a laptopsaver (in a manner of speaking) is the HP Pavilion dv2000/dv6000 and Compaq Presario v3000/v6000 Series Notebook PCs - HP Limited Warranty... Check it and see if your laptop is covered.

My MacBook Pro 13" won't turn on 90% of the time I try to get it running, and when it does turn on, even on a charger, it shuts down if I stop using it for 2 seconds and it won't turn back on. Should I replace the battery?

My MacBook Pro 13" won't turn on 90% of the time I try to get it running, and when it does turn on, even on a charger, it shuts down if I stop using it for 2+ seconds and it won't turn back on. Should I replace the battery? It doesn't hold a charge either...

EmadJamal,
the battery won’t melt because of long connection to the AC charger, although that has the potential of reducing the battery’s life.
Do you have access to a second 60 W AC charger to test with your MacBook Pro, or access to a second 13-inch MacBook Pro against which your AC charger could be tested?

How do you turn off the auto select behavior when working with shape layers?

How do you turn off the auto select behavior when working with shape layers?
I am using either of the path selection tools to select only some of the paths on the layer. I have the proper layer targeted. I have the selection too auto select option turned off.
If another layer has a path in that area, that layer becomes auto targeted and I get the wrong path. Turning off the layer is the only way to avoid this but then I have to turn on the layer back on between making my selection and transforming to use the other layer as guide. Is there any way to stop this auto select? Locking the other layer does not stop the auto select, just prevents editing.

As far as i know the move tool options don't have any effect on the path selection tools.
You might try clicking on one of the path points or on the path itself with one of path selection tools and if you want to select multiple points
you can shift click with the Direct Selection Tool or Alt click to select the entire path.
more path shortcuts:

FM Transmitter used to work fine but stopped working, bought 2 new ones and neither work, they work with other Ipods in the house, IPOD Usb syncs fine with Computer, why won't it work with the FM transmitters anymore?

Are the other iPods models, same version as yours. The 2 New FM Tx may need a new iPod software, which you can update via iTunes.
Good Luck!

Dv4-1222nr won't turn on lights blinking and hard disk light doesn't come on

My dv4-1222nr was working fine last night but this morning is something different. I turned it on and received a blank screen with caps and scroll lights and dvdr blinking and a funny sound as if the dvdr was trying to come on. I have taken out the battery, removed and put back the ram, and plugged in the ac cord without the battery too. sadly nothing has worked does anyone know what causes this problem and is there a way to fix it? I hope its not the hard drive that has to be replaced i didn't back up any of my stuff. Now something freaky just happened. As I'm typing this the laptop turned on by itself with the caps lock and scroll still blinking please help....

Hello, I'm having similar issues with my Hp pavillion DV7. I've always had to have the cord plugged in for the longest, and just recently would have to rig the cord into specific positions or else the LED light would remain off. My Laptop would randomly turn off, so I assumed It was the cord. I tried to fix the inside of the charging outlet inside the computer, but now the light won't turn on at all. I removed the battery and It hasn't made a difference, I'm scared to press the hidden button because I don't know if it would wipe my hard drive or not, and I don't have any money yet... Also my DVD drive doesn't always work either. I bought this Laptop in 2008-09 as you may have guessed I cannot afford a new one, I have many issues but I can't have It checked since my mother's car broke down. If I need replacments I would appreciate prices since I'm only a teenager... I have several problems with the laptop and I'm desperately in need of a quick fix. (I'm running behind on a scedule that requires to be complete before 2014) My computer runs super slow and freezes, shuts down, crashes and is used by all 4 of our family members I CANNOT wipe the hard drive, and I need professional Help!

BlackBerry Z10 won't turn on and red led blinks 4 times

Hi all,
Yesterday my BlackBerry Z10 suddently turned off, I turned it on again and it worked fine for a few minutes (battery was around 90% full), then it turned off again and I couldn't turn it on anymore! The red led is blinking 4 times with a 3 seconds interval between each 4 blinks sequence. I tried to charge the battery, connect it to the computer, turn it on without the battery (with charger on), with no success. Sometimes, it shows the BlackBerry logo, or even the logo with the % loading, but then it turns off in the middle of the process, on random percentages.
Does anyone know what happened to the phone and how to solve this issue?
Thanks!
V

Mine keeps turning off... I called them and they told me to send the phone to Blackberry by mail to check what's wrong and that when the phone gets there, they do a complete evaluation and in 30 days they send the phone back... In other words, I have to buy another phone! Blackberry assistance is useless...

MacBook won't turn on 98% of the time, help! Very weird things happening!

Hi there, any advice you have for me would me much appreciated. What happened with my Macbook is all very strange.
So, the morning before last, I was on my Macbook (which I bought in 2006 so it's on the older side, but otherwise worked great) and it was running low on battery. I was late for work so didn't plug it in before leaving. I left it open. However I have no roomates, pets, etc.
When I get home that evening, I plugged in the powercord and it wouldn't turn on. After trying a million different things, like taking the battery out, reseting the PRAM, etc, there were a few times where I got it to turn on, went through the log on screen, and was able to use my computer like normal for about 5 minutes or so, and then it would just shut off.
There were also many times when I would pres the power button and the screen would flash like it was about to turn on, and then it would make the noise that the computer makes when you're typically on 0% battery and it shuts down. Later in the night, when the computer was closed but plugged into the power outlet, it was by itself (meaning I wasn't pressing anything) making the noise that it was restarting. It made that noise about every 30 seconds for a few minutes. Weird.
It was also doing inconsistent things re: the sleep light. At times it was on, including when the computer was closed, and sometimes it would go from on to off. Also, the battery/charing was doing weird things. The few times I was able to get past the log in screen it showed that it was at 0%, even though the light on the adapter was green and it had been plugged in for a long time. Another time the battery icon had an X through it. I have 2 different batteries and neither one of them seemed to make a difference.
Also, yesterday I brought my computer into the Apple store and they put in a battery that was charged and it didn't seem to make a difference either. One more weird thing: when I did get the computer on in the spotlight bar it said it was indexing??
Anyways, I'm just confused/upset, etc. because I literally did nothing to the computer. I didn't drop it/spill on it, etc. I'm also frustrated because the guy at the genius bar litteraly only spent like 5 minutes looking at before he said i was SOL. He said it was the "main board" that was the problem. One of the things like I'm just confused by is if the main board really does need to be replaced, then how was I able to get the computer on and working those few times???
Sorrry this is so long, any help would be awesome!! I just don't have the money to buy a new computer, and I'm not sure it will be worth it for me to pay $300 to have it fixed when my computer's already pretty old and other things haven't been working for awhile (like my disc drive, camera). THANK YOU!!!

Ipod 4th Generation - Won't turn on or charge - Reset didn't work

No charging, no turning on, no recognition by my iTunes for my 4th Gen iPod Touch. It is only about 6 months old. I tried the holding home and sleep buttons for 10 or more seconds but that did not work. Any other option besides going to the Apple Store and asking for assistance there?
Thanks

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

SOS help please. Macbook Pro won't turn on. Blinking Light

Hello to everyone this is my first post here and sadly its about a problem with my macbook pro.
The notebook in question is a 17'' Macbook Pro I bought in September 2008.
I simply closed it (without turning it off, just let it go on sleep) and took it with me as usual and when I tried turning it on again, it would not turn on.
I press the power button and I hear the hard drive/superdrive (not sure which of the two) start up and I see the sleep light turn on but after a few seconds its turns off again. If I hold the power button down for a few seconds the sleep light starts blinking and then the notebook turns off once more. In all cases the screen is black.
I tried everything here http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1365 and tried removing and re-installing the RAM and nothing changed.
Short of trying to re-install the RAM again I have no idea what to do. I won't be able to visit a Genius until after the 5th so any ideas/suggestions?

see http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2674 and http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2341 for some information about beeps and flashes.
In your case, though, jinnes, the slow blinks suggest that the computer is simply refusing to wake up from sleep.
One possible, though unusual, cause of this can be if you are using the computer with it stacked on top of a macbook. In this case the magnet in the macbook underneath activates the Hall effect switch in the MBP, making the latter think the lid is closed, and preventing wakeup. I've had this happen to me and it is quite unnerving at the time! Simply moving the MBP will fix it. see http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2917
The same effect could be generated by proximity to other magnets.
It is also possible , if this is not your situation, that the hall effect switch in your MBP is actually defective. It may be worth trying simply opening and closing the lid a few times to see if you can get it to activate.
Cheers

IPod touch won't turn on and home button isn't working

So two days ago I was using my iPod and I put it town for a few minutes, and when I came back it would not turn on. It was fully charged so it is not a battery issue. It's a iPod touch 5th gen. Usually when this happens I do the home and power button press but now my home button doesn't work. I don't know what happened to that either because it suddenly stopped working. I tried to use TinyUmbrella and Macboot (or whatever it's called) but they didn't work because they didn't recognize my device. Is there any other way to fix this? Or any way to get the home button un stuck?

Turn on without Home/Power Button

PB won't turn on and beeps three times

My mac went to sleep automatically and when I went to wake it it took a while before coming back online. Once online it took about 1 minute before freezing. I held the power button down and it finally turned off. Now when I try to start the computer the sleep light starts blinking and the computer beeps at me two or three times than does nothing. I have removed the battery and tried restarting it with just the power cord and I have fully recharged the battery and then tried starting it yet it always does the same thing. Please help! I am deployed and the powerbook is brand new.

If it beeps precisely three times on startup, it means the Ram hasn't passed the startup test. Either one or both banks are faulty. Try and run the apple hardware test on your restore CD/DVD if you can. Insert the disk, restart, and hold now option (the alt key) and select the apple hardware test volume. You could also open the memory compartment and remove one of the banks, swap them round or reseat the ram (experiment to try and track down the problem).
If you not confident with that, it looks like a call to applecare will be appropriate in any case.
