BB 8830
Windows XP OS
I have been getting the "DM has encountered a problem and needs to shut down" message each time a connect my device (pearl). Have tried several of the tips I have harvested from these forums:
Delete the intelisync folder (http://www.blackberry.com/btsc/dynamickc.do?externalId=KB11703&sliceId=SAL_Public&command=show&forwa...)
FIXPST (http://supportforums.blackberry.com/rim/board/message?board.id=BlackBerryDesktopSoftware&message.id=...)
Uninstall and Reinstall DM
But to no avail. Still looking for the right approach

Desktop Manager shuts down when syncing Outlook 2007 calendar
Hey,
I've had my Curve for about 6 months, and now the desktop manager shuts down when syncing the calendar. It gets throught the address book and then I get a message that an error has occurred and it must shut down. I sync with an Outlook 2003/XP on my work computer and have no problems, but my home computer runs Outlook 2007/Vista. I'd love some help figuring out this issue. Thanks!
Solved!
Go to Solution.next thing to try is start-run-msconfig
click on STARTUP tab, and disable all
restart PC, and try again -
Hello. I have a Mac Mini connected to a TV. Although I have a wireless keyboard and mouse for it, I usually use a remote, or connect via VNC. I would like to be able to shut it down by just pressing the power button, like you can do on any PC, but instead, when I push the button it asks me for confirmation. Is there a way to have it just do a clean shutdown without prompting me? Thanks.
Hi Diane, follow these instructions to the letter, especially the part about leaving it in sleep mode without power for at least 5 hours:
1) Plug in the power adapter and fully charge your PowerBook's battery until the light ring or LED on the power adapter plug changes to green and the onscreen meter in the menu bar indicates that the battery is fully charged.
2) Allow the battery to rest in the fully charged state for at least two hours. You may use your computer during this time as long as the adapter is plugged in.
3) Disconnect the power adapter while the computer still on and start running the computer off battery power. You may use your computer during this time. When your battery gets low, the low battery warning dialog appears on the screen.
4) At this point, save your work. _Continue to use your computer; when the battery gets very low, the computer will automatically go to sleep._
5) _Allow it to sleep for five hours or more._
6) Connect the power adapter and leave it connected until the battery is fully charged again -
HT201250 Can I shut down my mac in the middle of a time capsule backup?
If I shut down my mac when time capsule is processing a backup, will it cause any problems?
Only a minor problem. The backup will be cancelled, so after you start your Mac up, the next backup will have to do a "deep scan" to figure out what's changed since the last (completed) backup. That will take somewhat longer than usual.

PB G4 Shuts Down without warning
Hi everyone,
Recently I have noticed that my PB G4 (1.5 Ghz with OS 10.4.11) will randomly shut down without warning. The battery bar on the top right of my screen will not be in the red zone when this happens. I have also noticed that when I do reboot my laptop that I get a warning that my Date and Time are set to before 2001 which apparently will screw things up. But when I check them, they are set to today's date.
Can anyone help me please?
Thanks in advance,
BettinaHi, bettina. Before replacing your clock battery, test it as described in this article:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=30017
This may confirm that it's bad, or may encourage you to focus on finding the problem elsewhere.
What suggests that the battery is bad is the fact that your clock is wrong at startup. If your Date & Time options include obtaining the correct time from a network time server and your computer is connected to the internet all the time, that explains why the clock is reset to the correct time very soon after starting up. -
MacBook Pro just shut down without notice. It had about 40% of the battery life. It will not turn back on and I noticed when plugged in the little light on the power cord is blinking orange, not a solid green like normal. Anyone have this issue before? I've only had this for about 3mos. I called apple support. They tried one thing then said I have to take to the apple store. Unfortunately I don't have one nearby. So before I travel an hour+ away I thought is give it a shot on here. Thank.
Hi S,
Did they have you try an SMC Reset: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3964? -
Hello, I am running Mac os 10.6.8. It is shutting down without warning when I walk away from the computer for about 5 minutes. It happened twice. It was not asleep, i had to turn the computer back on...Any ideas...
G. MendelCrashes
The next time the problem happens, note the date and time the problem occurred, then go to Applications/Utilities/Console and copy the log starting at the time of the crash. Paste the log in a reply. Please do not use a screen shot as they can be hard to read. If there are repeated runs of the same messages, please post only one run. Be selective about what you post and don’t post huge amounts. Make sure there is no personal data visible. Information learned from Linc Davis. -
My hard drive desktop suddenly will no longer hold or maintain the icons in place when I shut down and restart. The icons all change positions, alphabetically. Just started happening. I prefer the icons to a list format. Concerned this might be a symptom of a larger problem. Any thoughts?
revmandanIt's normal for the icons at the top level of the startup disk to revert to the same arrangement every time the Finder is relaunched. If it's important to you to arrange those icons in a persistent way, proceed as follows.
Back up all data.
Open the Info window on the startup disk (labeled "Macintosh HD" unless you gave it another name.) Click the lock icon in the lower right corner of the dialog and authenticate.
In the Sharing & Permissions section, click the plus-sign button to add an entry to the access list. Give yourself "Read and Write" access. This will be a temporary change. Leave the dialog open.
Open the Finder window and arrange the icons as you wish, then close the window.
In the Info dialog, use the minus-sign button to delete the entry you just added to the access list. Don't change anything else. When you're done, it should be the same as when you started. Close the Info dialog. -
Macbook pro wont shut down without holding the power button nor cycle for updates to restart.
macbook pro wont shut down without holding the power button nor cycle for updates to restart
Sorry I said sorta wrong. I can shut down and I can update to the point of restart but it just sat for 45 minutes after an update. It goes through the update and to restart then the bars chase each other in a circle and it never restarts. So I hit the power button and go through normal reboot but loosing the update in the process. It does not matter how long I wait for a natural reboot after an update or click to restart it will chase the little bar in circles all day literally and never reboot.

I just got my shipment and My Ipad mini is just shut down without any reason during upgrading. I'm doing restore it. Does it matter for the future use?
ACtually I really really don't want to use it anymore. I'm so disappointed.PolishAngel756 wrote:
Some friends have told me that their phone can last up to 2 days without charging??
If they are getting 2 days without charging, it's unlikely they use their device very much.
A full day is pretty good....and if I'm careful, I can easily get a full day of usage.
For me, normal is charging the iPhone mid afternoon at work, but I use it a lot.
My typical usage is 35 mins of listening to podcasts, checking email, checking my RSS feed, and checking a few apps while I ride my bike when I first get up. Then listening to several podcasts at work.
I typically stream music while working out during my lunch hour and use the Men's Health Fitness app to track my progress.
By about 2pm I'm ready to charge the device as it's getting low (somewhere between 20% and 50%).
I leave bluetooth, Wi-FI, and location services turned on all the time.
Personally, I just do not see the point in going into settings to turn on the feature when I need it... just too much hassle. All of my listening to podcasts and music is via Bluetooth.
I know I'm not the heaviest user, but I just do not see how anyone can realistically make it two days on a single charge, it makes me think they simply do not use the features of the device and would be just as well served with a basic or feature phone. -
Qosmio X870 shutting down without reason - low perfs
Hello everyone,
I have recently bought a Qosmio X870 116 and I am extremely disappointed. It is supposed to be a gaming computer but I can barely run a single game without the PC crashes. I tried to run recent games such as Diablo 3 and Guild Wars 2. During the downloading of the GW2 launcher, the PC crashed after a while, shutting down without any reason.
I eventually managed to install the game on my laptop anyway but I still encounter some issues since as I play, after not more than two minutes, the game slows down, the frame per second rate drops dramatically to 2 fps and the laptop crashes again.
I think there is a problem with the graphic card or the fan because eveytime I try to launch a game, the fan starts to run very fast and noisely.
I thought it also may be a problem with the Nvidia technology because of their Optimus service on their recent graphic cards, therefore I tried to "prioritize" the use of my NVIDIA GeForce GTX 670M instead of the chipset Intel HD Family 4000 used in the laptop, by right-clicking on the GW2 icon and opening the NVIDIA panel to select the "Nvidia High performances" option.
Unfortunately, the game still crashes after a few minutes. I obviously updated the drivers for the Nvidia but still, it doesnt work.
Moreover, the laptop seems pretty slow to me even while browsing on the Internet and the desktop which is rather worrying since the laptot has 12 GB memory.
Does anyone has an idea what is the reason for such low performances?
Thanks by advance.Try this with your video card and power settings:
Go to NVIDIA Control Panel (right click on desktop, 8th selection down), select/click
First tab {Adjust image settings with preview}:
Select: {Use my preference emphasizing: Performance}
**select "performance"**
Hit {Apply}
Second tab {Manage 3D settings}
**It gets technical but make sure it is exactly as I say it or it will not work. **
Go to Subtab 1{Global Settings}:

**SELECT "High-performance NVIDIA processor** *(see Note 1 at end)*
Settings: *Again,it has to be exact; first phrase in { } is "Features" the first column, second phrase in { } is the "Settings", the second column:

Third tab {Set PhysX Configuration}:
*ONLY SETTING IN TAB*
Select "GeForce GTX 670M"
Hit {Apply}
**NOT "CPU" and, NEVER "Auto-select (recommended)"** (see Note 1, again)
Go to Power Settings in your Control Panel:
Choose a Power Plan Option (Search "power" in search bar, choose the "Power plan", second selection under "Power Options" page.
*GO WITH THE HIGH PERFORMANCE OPTION, VERY CRITICAL!!!!* By default it is on "balance" (I believe)
Note 1: As far as I can tell the OS (Win8) can't transition like Win7 did between CPU and graphics card. Therefore every time graphics get going hard enough to demand the cards performance, the frames per rate stops or slows.
Note 2: Select other option if setup is different.

BlackBerry Desktop Software shuts down when connecting secondary device
All,
I have a main and a secondary phone (used for local SIM when traveling abroad)
After I backup my main device I connect my secondary device to be able to "Restore" and have all my contacts sync on both, but alas, once the secondary device is trying to connect the Desktop Software just shuts down without giving any error
The Backup process itself works great
I use the same cable, same USB Port, both devices have a charged battery and work great on a day to day basis
Main Device: BlackBerry 9900
Secondary Device: BlackBerry 9870
Desktop Software Version: 7.0.0.59 (May 16, 2012 Bundle 60)
Laptop OS: Windows XP Professional SP3
ThanksI'm not familiar with this particular package, but with similar packages from other carriers there's usually a setting that lets the program control your Network - it may only say Wi-Fi.
The BlackBerry drivers include a Dial-Up connection which is probably getting shut down by the software which kills Desktop Manager.
If you turn off that option, the problem should go away (reboot probably a good idea).

It just shuts down without warning
Hi there,
My MacBookPro shipped on 06.2006 is shutting down without warning after more or less one hour when in battery use (The battery has 142 cycles). I've already reset and recalibrated the battery but without success. I also did the efi updates and the resend battery update also no success. The power level seams to drop rapidly without warning. The used battery is also not included in the apple exchange program (wrong serial no.). It is normal for a battery this age to have a power decrease but at least I’d like to get a warning before the computer shuts down. Please help me with your suggestions.OK, first, let's be clear on this and all future posts: is the MBP running on battery (NOT plugged in) or is it pugged in. You can see that if it is NOT plugged in, then there could be battery issues and that's the first thing I would try to diagnose. There are several posts in this forum about that problem (which doesn't pertain to me or to esqjake, since our problems occur in both situations). If I can summarize:
1) download the latest software; if you have a MacBook (not Pro) you need to have a Battery Update. MB Pro's don't need this.
2) Check your battery life and charge, using System Profiler. In OS 10.4 there's info on Power; the Battery section looks like this:
Battery Information:
Battery Installed: Yes
First low level warning: No
Full Charge Capacity (mAh): 4657
Remaining Capacity (mAh): 4330
Amperage (mA): 939
Voltage (mV): 12560
Cycle Count: 124
Apparently if the cycle count is under 300 and the mAh is low then you may qualify for a replacement battery. You'll have to search for yourself in the Forum for the exact numbers, sorry, since that's not what I'm experiencing I didn't write it down.
Now, on to the second type of problem: the MBPro shuts down *+without warning+* typically after being woken from sleep. Note that this is not a typical shut down; the computer just turns off. Also note, this is not a kernal panic, where the screen goes dark like a curtain is coming down and you get a polite message in multiple languages to hold the power key down to restart; no, the computer just turns off. Also typical is you have to hold down the power key for 5+ seconds (until you hear the tone and the power light flashes) or it won't restart; it will start for a few seconds and turn off again. Once I've restarted, it seems to work OK until the next time I try to wake it up; my current solution is that I'm just leaving it on. This has been called Random Shut Down Syndrome or RSS; you can do a search yourself if you have some time. Google will get you half a million hits or so (there's even a website called www.macbookrandomshutdown.com); there are far less in these discussion forums (and less help here, too, I've found. Doesn't Apple have an administrator looking at these posts?). Unfortunately, most of the hits deal the the MacBook, not the MacBook Pro. However, perhaps one of them will help.
Here's what I've found as possible causes:
1) a warped battery (mine isn't);
2) reset the System Manager Control (SMC)(unplug, battery out, hold down power key 5+ seconds, reboot);
3) due to overheating (again, it has happened immediately after waking from sleep, so it's the case is cool); or
4) there are some posts about looking through the console logs (Use the Console app located in the Utilities folder, and open console.log, console0.log, or consoleX.log). The console and system logs haven't been helpful for me personally (occasionally I've gotten the "previous shutdown cause= -82" message in the system log, supposedly a sign of RSS, but this is not consistent).
Now, here's something I found today, a simple test to see if you have RSS, but it is old and pertains (yet again) to the MacBook, not the Pro. However, I'll give it a try.
http://blogs.zdnet.com/Apple/?p=274
Anyway, I'm ready to bring mine in; I just can't afford to be without it just now. No data seems to be lost, so I'm just trying to get by, and put up with the RSS.
I hope that helps. Maybe some of the "Top Users" would like to help? I'm still lost. -
MacBook shuts down without warning during calibration (39% battery power)
My MacBook has been shutting down without warning during recent calibrations (which I've done approximately every two months). Most recently it shut down after 2 hours and 20 minutes on battery power with a battery reading of 39% -- i.e., nowhere close to the 0% of a fully rundown battery.
The result is that:
I'm not seeing the 'low battery' warning dialog before the computer shuts down; and
(ii) I'm not able to save current work and close all applications when the battery's charge gets low, before the computer goes to sleep (because it just shuts down without warning)
Can I do anything about this? Is it just an unavoidable indication of declining battery performance?
My MacBook is 15 months old. Current 'battery information' is listed below.
Thanks. Replies appreciated.

1. I'm not sure how to match the path you listed re: the '1.3 battery update' to what's on my MacBook. Maybe I just don't understand how to interpret it, but I don't have a root folder (or any other folder) identified as 'MacBook.' When I used Spotlight, I also didn't come up with a BatteryUpdater.bundle. A file named BatteryUpdate2007001.pkg was all that Spotlight turned up.
On my MacBoook my hard drive that I boot from is named Mort's MacBook. Yours may be similar I don't know. It is the drive you boot from. Mines shows in finder as the top level drive. The next level in column view. Then you find the System file and go from there.
If your not sure what you named your drive or which one it is click the apple in the upper left corner and then pick *About This Mac* You then should see *Startup Disk* and next to that the name is what you refer too when you look for the folder path I gave.
2. You recommended resetting the SMC. However, the info file you provided a link for says it shouldn't be "necessary except as a last resort in cases where a hardware failure of the power management system is suspected." Does that accurately describe the condition I reported? Also, the problems listed as possible reasons to reset the SMC don't include the one I posted about.
The reason I suggest resetting the SMC is that your changing one of the components that is controlled by the functions of the SMC. The battery is a big part of the system which the battery update changes. To get it to be sure to recognize the new bundle you reset the SMC. The instructions linked are not all inclusive but if you don't want to reset it that is up to you.
3. Similarly, re: the 1.2 Battery Update, it's not clear to me that any of the listed 'symptoms' of a faulty battery apply in my case -- unless what I reported indicates a "+low charge capacity/runtime+." Does it?
The battery update instructions are again not all inclusive. If you don't want to do it that is fine. All I know is you have a MacBook Pro update installed at the moment. You don't have a MacBook Pro. This suggestion of mine has helped many people with problems as reported by you. You do not have to do anything you don't want. That is your choice. Is your battery cutting off at 39% considered normal operating or capacity to you? I personally would call it a faulty battery, but thats just me.
What would be your definition of a faulty battery?
4. Apparently, you had a faulty battery which Apple replaced. I wasn't sure from your message whether you had other things going on that made it clear you had a faulty battery, or only the same symptoms I reported. Were there other power-related problems in your case, or only, as you wrote "the same thing as yours except mine cut off at 28%"?
I guess I misunderstood your original post, everything yours was doing mine was doing except mine cut off at 28% not 39%. I can only give advice on what you post. Are there other things happening that you didn't mention?
My idea of a faulty battery must be different than yours. If I don't get warnings I should and the battery does not work like it used to then that is a faulty battery in my opinion.
If your not comfortable with any of my suggestions contact Apple support and maybe they can help you. Possibly one of the other posters on here can give you different advice that you agree with. Never do anything advised in the forums unless you agree with it.
