No it is not possible to change the videocard. It is part of the motherboard and cannot be changed. Overheating on the motherboard is usually fixed by opening up the laptop, and removing, cleaning up and reseating the cooler/fan and applying new thermal compound. Post back if you want some help with that.

  • I cannot save the Firefox icon in Applications: I get a message "The item "Firefox.app" can't be replaced because it's invisible."

    I downloaded the update to my desktop and can open it, but I cannot move the icon to Applications. Each time I do, I get the error message: The item “Firefox.app” can’t be replaced because it’s invisible.
    It's currently saved in Documents. The icon remains on the Dock.

    If there are problems with updating or with the permissions then easiest is to download the full version and trash the currently installed version to do a clean install of the new version.
    Download a new copy of the Firefox program and save the disk image (dmg) file to the desktop
    *Firefox 9.0.x: http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all.html
    *Trash the current Firefox application to do a clean (re-)install
    *Install the new version that you have downloaded

  • My ipod keeps getting overheated and it's black is it because it's black or because it's just getting charged too much?

    Okay so after I came home from Vermont, my black iPod started to overheat a lot. I keep it on my charger 24/7 (except when I'm going somewhere). I asked someone if it happened before on their iPod and they said no but they said it might overheat a lot because it's black and it's really hot outside but I keep it inside. My iPod is a 4th generation, 16GB, and is black. Does it keep getting overheated because of the weather, because it's black, or I'm over charging it?

    Oh well there's another thing.... I plugged in my ipod and all of the sudden it showed "Temperature" and the triangle with the explication mark in the middle of it and then shut off... My ipod wasn't even overheated. I unplugged it and plugged it back in again. Then it showed a battery thing with a little red line in it but the thing is that my ipod was fully charged. So I left it there until the next day it showed the same thing so i unplugged it and turned it on... and the date and time changed.

  • The item "(name of the song)" can't be replaced because it's invisible!!??!

    I'm hoping someone can help me with this issue.
    I've been backing up my song purchases to the time capsule but for some reason on half of my songs i get an error that says "*The item (name of the song) can't be replaced because its invisible*"
    never had this problem before until now... not sure how to fix it. i can play my songs no problem but when i try to copy a song to the time capsule i get that error message. HELP!

    The issue has nothing to do with your original files (I'm pretty sure) so the profession of being able to play the song in iTunes has nothing to do with it. The file that's "invisible" is not the original, but the copy that's already in the destination folder. OS X has LOTS of invisible files all over the place. Why didn't you know that before? They're invisible! Usually these are files the system needs for proper operation, but the user doesn't need to mess with (according to Apple!).
    Now, how did your destination folder wind up with an invisible file by the same name as the song file you're trying to copy? I don't know, but what it looks like to me is that standard opperating procedure for the OS is to begin its copying process by first creating an invisible file in the destination folder with the proper title, then begin actually copying data. For some reason that Apple needs to fix, sometimes when the OS goes to start actually copying data, it sees the invisible file it just created and says "Oops! there's already a file there by this title! I can't put another one there!" Normally, it would ask you, the user, if you wanted to replace the existing file, but the file is invisible and therefore cannot be replaced, so it just tells you that.
    What to do?
    I LOVE the widget available here: http://web.me.com/hansen.m/Site/Widgets.html One trip to the dashboard, click on "Show", and viola! you can see that pesky invisible file in your destination folder. Now you can delete it. Sometimes this works and a second attempt to copy the file works. More often I find that I have to copy to a different folder on the destination disk. After that I can move it to the preferred folder (copying from the local hard disk to some other location - I run into this when copying to my idisk - seems to be part of the problem.)
    In case that was about as clear as a toad's complexion, let me illustrate. I move files for sharing to my idisk every week. I click on a song and drag from iTunes, where I've already placed my recording, to a Finder window where idisk/Music/ReChording is already open, wait for the green circle with the white plus sign, and drop it. I get the message about not being able to replace. I access my dashboard and click "Show". Then I delete the now visible (grayed, but visible) offending file from my idisk. Then I click (in the Finder) on the idisk/Music folder, making it the destination. Then click on iTunes and drag the song to the idisk/Music folder. It copies. When it's done, I drag the file from idisk/Music to idisk/Music/ReChording. This copy has never given me a problem, and is nearly instantaneous, since no data needs to be copied.
    Download that widget. It's a lot less painful than other workarounds. But Apple needs to fix this.
    I hope that helps.

  • How to replace Bing and get Google back as my default search engine? I have already changed it in preferences and disabled extensions.  Nothing is working!!

    How to replace Bing and get Google back as my default search engine? I have already changed it in preferences and disabled extensions.  Nothing is working!!

    You installed the "Genieo" spyware/adware. There is an uninstaller, but as the developer is not trustworthy, you shouldn't rely on it. I suggest the tedious procedure below to disable Genieo.
    Back up all data.
    Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
    /Applications/Genieo.app
    Right-click or control-click the line and select
    Services ▹ Reveal
    from the contextual menu.* A folder should open with an item selected. Move the selected item to the Trash. You may be prompted for your administrator password.
    *If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. In the Finder, select
    Go ▹ Go to Folder...
    from the menu bar, paste into the box that opens (command-V). You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.
    Repeat with each of these lines:
    /Applications/Uninstall Genieo.app
    /Library/Frameworks/GenieoExtra.framework
    /Library/LaunchAgents/com.genieo.engine.plist
    /Library/LaunchAgents/com.genieoinnovation.macextension.plist
    /Library/LaunchDaemons/com.genieoinnovation.macextension.client.plist
    /Library/PrivilegedHelperTools/com.genieoinnovation.macextension.client
    /usr/lib/libgenkit.dylib
    Note: Some of these items may be absent, in which case you'll get a message that the file doesn't exist.
    The following configuration file is either created or modified by the Genieo installer:
    /etc/launchd.conf
    The file is unlikely to be used by anything but Genieo or something equally undesirable. Unless you know you need it, delete it in the same way as above. Otherwise, edit it to remove the line that begins as follows:
    setenv DYLD_INSERT_LIBRARIES
    The above is not a file, but a line inside a file.
    Reboot. Safari should now launch without crashing. If not, stop here and post your results.
    From the Safari menu bar, select
    Safari ▹ Preferences ▹ Extensions
    Uninstall any extension you don't recognize. If in doubt, uninstall all extensions. Do the equivalent for the Firefox and Chrome browsers, if you use either of those.
    The Genieo installer may also install the "Silverlight" web plugin from Microsoft. If you have no use for that plugin, you should remove it according to Microsoft's instructions. Don't remove it if you subscribe to "Netflix."
    This procedure may leave a few files behind, but it should render Genieo permanently non-functional, as long as you never reinstall it.

  • My iPhone5 is getting overheated

    my iPhone is getting overheated in below activities:
    a) after 20-40% charging
    b) after a long run Radio or Music
    c) After 30-45 mins in Mobil data connection. Is this normal behaviour for iphone5?
    Also it is taking atleast 1-2 min to restart after switching off.
    Battery doesn't stay long. I have to charge my phone after every 3 hrs
    Sometimes it is geeting heated just because of navigation.

    Hi, ftberg.
    I would recommend closing all open applications in multitasking, power cycling the device and restarting iTunes.
    iOS: Force an app to close
    iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting

    Once you have processed these steps, attempt to sync again.

  • Creating Variable with Replacement Path to get value from ANOTHER Variable

    Hi all,
        Is anyone has created the Variable with Replacement Path to get the value from another User Entry Variable, PLEASE ? 
    First created the User Entry Variable (ZV_X) and it accepts the date range like '01/01/2009 - 01/31/2009'. Next created the Characteristic variable (ZV_Y) of Replacement Path for which source variable will be ZV_X and we should get the 'FROM Date' (01/01/2009) from the selection (ZV_X) into it (ZV_Y).
    While creating the Characteristic variable (ZV_Y) of Replacement Path, I didn't find my newly created ZV_X variable in the list of available variables under 'Variable' header in 'Replacement Path' tab and it is causing the error 'Source to replace variable ZV_Y is not defined'. How could I create the Characteristic variable of Replacement Path for my requirement, PLEASE ?
    The following is from help.sap..com:
    Replace with Characteristic Value
    Text and formula variables with the processing type Replacement Path can be replaced with a corresponding characteristic value. In the variable editor, on the General tab page, you specify under Reference Characteristic the characteristic that is to be referenced by the replacement. On the Replacement Path tab page, you can choose whether the variable is replaced with the From or the To Value and with the Key or the Name of the characteristic value. You can also specify the Offset Start and Offset Length for the output.
    Replace with Variable
    Characteristic value variables, hierarchy variables, text variables, and formula variables with the Replacement Path processing type can take their values from a different variable.
    The following prerequisites need to be fulfilled:
    Variable
    ●      The variable must not be input-ready
    ●      The variable must represent a single value
    Source Variable
    ●      The source variable must not be a hierarchy node variable
    ●      The source variable must be input-ready
    ●      The source variable must be available in the query
    ●      The source variable must represent a single value or an interval
    In the variable editor, on the Replacement Path tab page, you specify the source variable from which the value is to be determined. The value is either determined from the key, the external attribute of the key, the description, or the attribute value. You can specify an Offset Start and an Offset Length for the output here. The variable is replaced on the variable screen upon each data release.
    Thanks,
    Venkat.

    Hi Eve,
    It is possible to connect the 2 queries using a Replacement Path characteristic variable. You would need to create the variable on the char whose values you want to pass from Q1 to Q2. The variable will be of type replacement path and you will need to enter the name of Q1 from which it will get the values. Make sure that you include this char in the query definition of Q1 and Q2. In Q2 you will restrict the characteristic using this variable. DO not use this variable (replacement path) in Q1.
    In your query properties check if you have turned on the checkmark for Release for OLE DB for OLAP (3rd tab). If the check mark is there, then remove it.
    We are using the scenario in a couple of places, and it works very well.
    Hope this helps...

    Do you mean the App Store app on your iPad ? If you do then it can't be deleted, but you might have hidden it via Settings > General > Restrictions > Installing Apps 'off' - if that is 'off' then turn it back 'on' and the app should show on one of your iPad's home screens again

    Jim
    Thank you for your prompt reply. Unfortunately I am not that tech oriented and
    cannot easily find that folder. I did notice when I was booting up the LR software
    that I could accept the site where LR usually is set up or choose a place. I am
    thinking that the standard location for LR software is corrupted and that if I
    chose a different place it would work. I say this because whether I use my
    original disc or download from adobe I get the same warning. I have 100GB of
    memory on the hard drive and I have cleaned the computer with Mcaffee and free
    software. What should I do next? I can't use this software and I doubt LR 5
    would open up with my current problem.
