COMS checksum is invalid, the COMS will be rest to default
Hi,
Product name: HP Pavilion dv6-6093ex Entertainment Notebook PC support).
Product number: LM610EA#A2N Since I was facing an error 'The system has detected that a cooling fan is not operating correctly, I have cleaned the the fan, and even the heatsink(metal plate) with the paint thinner, and then I rebuild the fan in the heatsink. After that, I have applied new thermal compound on both of the tops of CPU and GPU. Finally: I have put in back my laptop all together.
The error 'The system has detected that a cooling fan is not operating correctly.' no longer appears to me. However, when starting my laptop, I face 'COMS checksum is invalid, the COMS will be rest to default', although I was not facing this error before taking apart my laptop. (Why do I only now face this error 'COMS checksum is invalid, the COMS will be rest to default' ?
The time and date was reset to '01/01/2010 (12:04:44 AM)'
I opened the BIOS, and then updated the time and date to the recent values. However, I saw the time and date came back to the wrong value when shut my laptop down and leave it for about 5 hours and turn it on again.
However, when shutting it down for only minutes, and turn it on again, then I found the new configuration(new data and time) keeps as I set them up.
Do you think that COMS was defective while removing it when taking apart my laptop
Thank you very much indeed for your continual replies.
To my surprise, my laptop was powered up again. But I would like you to kindly concentrate with what I would be going to say below?
1- When my laptop is not powered up when trying powering it up yesterday, I have tried removing the COMS battery and then disconnecting the charger, and pressing the power button and holding it for 1 min. Finally: I waited 10 min and tried to connect the charger and power up the pc. , then it was powered up well.
2- when I powered my laptop up, then the error 'COMS checksum is invalid, the COMS will be reset to default' appeared to me'. Then, I have booted to BIOS, and updated the date and time to the correct values.
3- When I restarted my laptop, then the error 'The system has detected that a cooling fan is not operating correctly.
Continued operation is not recommended and may cause unpredictable behavior that could result in random shutdown, data loss or possible system damage. The system will shut down in 15 seconds. To prevent shutdown and continue operation, press the Enter key now', although I have fixed it by cleaning the fan/heatsink throughly before, and it was not appearing to me.
4- Whenever I now start my laptop, only this error 'the system has detected that a cooling fan is not operating correctly.' appears to me. However, the 'COMS checksum is invalid,.....' no longer appears to me and the date and time are still correct whatever time my laptop stayed shut down.
So, My questions are:
1- do you think that the error 'the system has detected that a cooling fan is not operating correctly.' is related to 'COMS battery as long as when the error 'COMS checksum is invalid,....' appears to me, then the error 'the system has detected that a cooling fan is not operating correctly' doesn't appear to me?
2- Why does the error 'COMS checksum is invalid,....' no longer appear to me when the error 'the system has detected that a cooling fan is not operating correctly.' appears back to me.?

The application called VirusScan that comes preloaded on the macbook will no longer open, claiming that it is corrupt and that I must reinstall it. After looking in the app store it does not appear that said application is available for re-downloading. Is there a special, non-app store place where I am to go for this?
Also, I installed MacKeeper about two-three months ago and am questioning its performance. Looking for input as to whether or not this application helps or hinders my system.I'll back up Csound on the MacKeeper thing. In fact, I actually wrote the following about it:
http://www.reedcorner.net/news.php/?p=245
Remove is ASAP. Do not use the provided uninstalled, as there are widespread reports of pop-ups advertising MacKeeper on your system after incompletely removing it. Try this:

As for VirusScan, Barney is right on the money that it does not come preinstalled on any Mac shipped new from Apple. However you have gotten it, your best bet is removing it. See my Mac Malware Guide for more information that will help you understand and avoid Mac malware without relying on anti-virus software.

How come I can't add a song to my playlists in itunes match? Is it me or itunes match? It keeps on coming up with a message " iCloud playlists can only contain songs from your iCloud music library. If you continue, the playlist will be removed from iCloud and will only be available on this computer"?
You must surely be able to add and subtract songs on specific playlist?I fixed this issue (with help from tech support) and it involved several things.
After adding a song to iTunes, right-click on the song in iTunes and select "Update iTunes Match."
OR go to the iTunes menu-->Store-->Update iTunes Match.
Maybe that's the reason, it just hadn't updated to the cloud.
OR maybe it's not a high-enough bitrate file. This happens to me because most of my tunes are home-recorded.
Sometimes converting to .mp3 or Create AAC version might work. (You do this with a right-click in iTunes, and then you will want to remove the original file from iTunes.)
There is an iTunes Preferences setting, under General Preferences called Import Settings. Try setting it to AAC Encoder and iTunes Plus. That (I think) causes imports to be slightly better quality.
Good luck! The tech support person at Apple is requesting that a knowlege-base article be written about this. -
I will type in google let say tree the search will click on to one of the searches and instead of tree web page showing up a ad page will come up this happens with very thing can you help.
You (or your kids) inadvertently installed adware. You do not need to download or install anything to fix it.
Any tips on how to stop it from happening?
Yes. To learn how to avoid it in the future read How to install adware.
If you require them, Apple's removal instructions are linked in the Recovery Procedure near the end of that document. Read and follow them carefully. Pay particular attention to the easily overlooked passages directing you to restart your Mac when required. -
In text or email, the keyboard will not come up. I have to reset phone or turn it off to get started again. How can i fix this issue?
Hello Jennings Castle,
It seems your iPhone is slowing down and not responding frequently. To rectify this issue you may want to consider performing a restore on the device, and then restoring your data from a backup via iCloud or iTunes.
If the issue persists after restoring your backup, you would then want to consider restoring the device and setting it up as new. Below I have linked to article which offers guidance on both of these restore methods:
How to erase your iOS device and then set it up as a new device or restore it from backups - Apple Support

The sound will no longer come through my headphones on my iPad I've tried several different headsets. The sound works as normal without the headphones but will still not come through the headphones even thoug I have tried to reset it twice. This is the new ipad with retina display and is only 2 months old and otherwise works fine. Please help!
- Try cleaning out/blowing out the headphone jack. Try inserting/removing the plug a dozen times or so.
Try the following to rule out a software problem
- Reset the iPad. Nothing will be lost
Reset iPad: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup
- Restore to factory settings/new iPod.
- Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store. Seems you have a bad headphone jack.
Apple Retail Store - Genius Bar
Apple will exchange your iPad for a refurbished one for this price. They do not fix yours.
iPad Service Answer Center
A third-party place like the following will replace the jack for less. Google for more.

Replace the jack yourself

After updating my iphone 4 to iOS6 the screen will periodically fade out to black and will not come back up. I have to shut the phone off and back on 2 or 3 times to get it to come back on. I have done a restore and that did not help. any ideas? is this happening to anyone else?
did you restore from backup or as a new device? Restore as a new device. Before you add any apps to it, use the phone with just the iOS-installed apps. If it's fine, slowly add a few purchased apps back at a time. Do this until the offending app is found.

While browsing eBay, when I watch or bid on an item, and later view it again, many inches of white space appears before item appears. If I delete the clear recent history box, the pages will come up as they should for several times, then go back to a lot of extra white space. How can I prevent this? Thank you, Rick in English

1. This procedure is a diagnostic test. It changes nothing, for better or worse, and therefore will not, in itself, solve the problem.
Obviously, it will not harm your computer provided you follow the instructions. However, if you don't post your results in the thread where you were given those instructions, then the person helping you cannot help you further.

when i try to load pictures or to view them in another window, e.g. from ebay, or any site, the page will come up blank. why is this?
Some mail programs, including Apple Mail, can reduce the size of images that are attached to a message. It's happening at the sender's end, and all you can do is ask the sender for a larger image.
