Can the heat from my computer hurt my battery?

Hi I just had a second battery put into my almost 4 year old macbook. The 1st replacement was put in last June I believe. I had it replaced again a few days ago because it would die out within 20 minutes and the computer wouldn't go to sleep it would just shut off. So I'm trying to keep this new battery healthy for as long as possible. What I was wondering was if the heat from the computer running can hurt my battery in the long run. The bottom of my computer is pretty much always hot. It is currently at 150 degrees F. I downloaded smcFanControl to increase the fan speed on my computer in hopes it would keep it cooler. I wanted to know if there was anything else I could do for it. Also how frequently should I cycle through my battery?
Thanks,
Kristina

" The bottom of my computer is pretty much always hot. It is currently at 150 degrees F."
On what sort of surface is your computer on? If it is on a flat hard surface, the temperature of your computer is too hot, and there's something wrong.

  • I am having a weird problem with my phone every since it was updated this last time. I can sync movies from my computer to my iphone but any movies I buy with my phone I can not sync to the computer. But I redownload it to the computer and can then sync.

    I for the first time since buying my iphone and ipods for almost three years am concedering getting rid of them as I am getting tired of this problem. I can sync anything from my computer to the iphone. I can not sync movies bought on the iphone to my computer. I have tried everything and spent days trying to trouble shoot. I literally have bought hundreds of movies off Itunes but will not buy any thing else until I can figure this problem out. I have uninstalled Itunes reinstalled, troubles shooted using the itunes trouble shooter and reset my phone and nothing works.
    When I try to sync from my phone to the computer it says it can not be done because the iphone is not hooked up to the computer. I have only had these problesm since the new update not before. I have bought new cables twice to see if it helped and has not. Both my kids have Ipods, I have a Iphone and was planning on buying two Ipads for the kids for Christmas but not if I can fix this.

    You are correct.  Syncing should transfer any purchased media, including videos, from your device to your iTunes library provided your computer is authorized for the Apple ID used to make these purchases.  You mentioned that you have uninstalled iTunes before, but if you didn't follow this guide exactly, uninstalling iTunes and all of its components in the order specified, it may not have been successful so you should try again:  Windows XP or Windows Vista/7.

    If time machine puts all of my photos onto my external hard drive using time machine, can I then delete the photos from my computer but view them again from the external hard drive? Basically, can I free up space on my mac but not lose years of photos?

    To add to Niel's comment bear in mind that if you have a backup copy on an external HD and later delete the orignals on your Mac HD you will then only have one copy - so no backup.
    If the pictures are precious you should have at least two copies, and ideally another copy kept off site,

    Hi Vivek,
    In Reporting Services, values for LogonUser, LogonDomain, and LogonCred are created when the report server connection is configured to use a domain account. As to the error that “The encrypted value for the "LogonCred" configuration setting cannot be decrypted”,
    we can know that it relates to the domain account for report server connection.
    To fix this issue, we can refer to the following steps:
    Log in to SQL Server Database Engine in SQL Server Management Studio.
    Under Security folder, give sufficient permissions for your domain account.
    Open your Reporting Services Configuration (go to Start -> All Programs -> Microsoft SQL Server 2005 -> Configuration Tools -> Reporting Services Configuration)
    Navigate to the Database Setup tab, select ‘Service Credentials’ as the Credentials Type, then type your domain account and password in there. Press Apply.
    Restart the Report Server services.

    Formating, it must be gone now?
    When you update, delete and reinstall your profile is kept and only program-files are deleted / replaced. All your prefs , account details, mail, folders and add-ons are intact.
    All that is in a hidden directory %appdata%\roaming\thunderbird\profiles\.......

  • I can't upload the music from my computer to my I touch. But I can upload photos.

    I can't upload the music from my computer to my I touch. But I can upload photos.

    iTunes will only copy Apple purchases from your device, it won't copy music bought from other sites or that you've copied from CDs. Have you not got a backup of your content on, for example, an external drive that you can copy onto your new Mac ? That would be the quickest method but homesharing on itunes is also a possibility. Click here to see that:

    If not then third party software will be able to copy and paste your files however depending on the file size, they may charge money for their service.
    Hope this helped!

    I can't sync the songs from my computer to my ipod touch. I have gone through the directions on the iPond help page and have not found them helpful. For example, I can't find the autofill button. Can you help?

    I have already tried following those steps. I went back and tried to follow them again but they did not work. Some of my songs have synced, some have not. And I am still not seeing the Autofill icon on the bottom of the menu or anywhere else. I fear something has been corrupted here and I need to start afresh.
