Disc drive opens randomly without warning

My disc drive on my touch smart randomly opens and is completely intermittent about it. I contacted tech support about this and got a new drive but that didn't fix the issue and now they want me to reset my computer to factory setting but I don't want to do that. The drive will not stay closed sometimes unless i close it over and over until it stays close. Someone help please!

Illustrator substitutes fonts when opening document without warning.

Have an annoying issue hopefully somebody can shed light on. When we activate fonts using font management software, work on a file, close the file and then deactivate those fonts, if we open the file again without turning the fonts back on, the file will load without giving a missing font warning and substitute the fonts to myriad. In a few test, the fonts were still open, and no substitution occured, BUT, random blocks of type were inexplicably empty. When the file gets reopened with fonts reactivated or if Ilustrator is restarted, everything behaves normally.
This was tested on os 10.5.8 on multiple machines using Illust CS4, Suitcase, Universal Type Server and Font Explorer X. Test were made both before and after using Font Nuke to clean font caches to the same effect.
Anybody have any idea how to prevent this behavior? I don't want Illustrator to substitute fonts without warning me that fonts are missing....ever. If it must, can I have it substitute to wingdings or chinese characters or something that will be a bit more obvious than myriad?

Yeah, this is very big and money cost problem, happened to me a few times and couldnt find and answer. To try to prevent this I did this two posible options, but is not perfect...
1. There is an option under the page setup uncheked by default named "Highlight substitude fonts" so you have to check this option for every document you have and make, what a nightmare, this must be checked by defalut, please adobe team...!
2. Also yo can try to change the default font following this steps, another nightmare because not always work
To change the default font for Illustrator CS4
Choose File > Open and go to Documents and Settings/User/Application Data/Adobe/Adobe Illustrator CS4 Settings/New Document Profiles (Windows) or to Users/User/Library/Application Support/Adobe/Adobe Illustrator CS4/New Document Profiles (Mac OS).
Open one of the default document profile template files (Basic CMYK, Basic RGB, Mobile and Devices, Print, Video and Film, or Web, depending on which type of document you intend to use).
Choose Window > Type > Character Styles.
Select the Normal Character Style and choose Character Style Options from the palette menu.
Select Basic Character Formats and choose the desired font from the Font Family menu.
Click OK, and then choose File > Save and close the file.
Restart Illustrator
Give it a try and tell us..

U410 (i5) Turns off randomly without warning

Hello
I just purchased brand new U410 for my sister. On the first day it turns off without warning, multiple times, but then it survive without any incident for hours until I shutdown it properly. I thought it was faulty driver and the bundled windows 8 need an update. I updated the windows 8 and installed all the driver available on Lenovo Support website. Well it runs perfectly fine for few days, then I give it to my sister as a birthday present. Yesterday she use it for the first time for browsing the internet and creating presentation then the U410 just turned off without warning. She turned it on but after few minutes, it's turn off again, repeatedly. She gave up and cry. As a brother who gave her the laptop, I have to responsible to make it works.
Next day I try to use it for work, and it's happen again, turned off without warning multiple times. I decided to take it to store where I purchased it. It works normally perfectly and smoothly without any trouble. i felt like a fool. Then when I get back on my desk, use it for few minutes then it turned off, again and again.
I'm not an expert on computer technology, I'm just a basic user. I read the other forums, they said it can be solved by re-install or tweak something, honestly I don't have that capability. Taking it back to Lenovo Service centre is difficult, I live in rural area in Indonesia with limited internet and transportation support.
I have try to change the power management and nothing happen, it just turn off suddenly. I've spend more than 24 hours downloading drivers for nothing. I need help and already desperate. Lenovo? Help.
PS. My laptop is U410 bundled with Windows 8
Serial Number QB06157482
In the box there was only the laptop and charger. Nothing else, not even a disc or thumb drive.
Sorry for my poor english.

My ibook G4 shuts off randomly without warning when it's plugged in.

I have a ibook G4 (late 2004) running leopard. I recently (a month or so) installed a new HD, since original finally failed. I have been running my ibook on power only for 3 years, since my battery stopped charging.
In the last few days my computer has started shutting off completely without a pattern or warning. I hear a single click as it shuts off.
This began when I was using hulu and wanted to plug the video adapter in as a larger display on my TV. In order to do this, I closed the ibook (putting it to sleep) while on hulu. Plugged in the video adapter and opened the ibook. It seemed that my computer had shut off suddenly when I opened to awaken it. I held down the power button to hard reset it, not knowing if the comp. was off or not. A low-long beep came from within the computer and the sleep button blinked very quickly about 8 times or so(too fast to count).
Ever since then I can't trust it to stay on for any amount of time. Sometimes it will shut off as it is booting. Other times it may run for several hours then suddenly shut off.
I am wondering if some other part of this ibook is dying or if I created an issue with the video adapter? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
Jason

Disk drive suddently died without warning? :(

I've been trying to get Bootcamp to work- I have a MBP so I cant use a usb drive to start it. After burning a disk in an iMac, I put it into my drive.. it made like a whiring sound, then it whined down.. did that two more times, then it spit out my disk. I tested it on the iMac and did work, so the disk isnt bajorked Drive was working fine yesterday..

That actually is very much the nature of optical and hard drives - they very often do not die a slow nor obvious death with plenty of warning. They just flip over and die suddenly, and with little or no warning.
Is the MBP still under warranty or AppleCare by any chance? Your drive would be covered for hardware failure.
If it is out of warranty, take a loot at www.ifixit.com or other self-repair sites - ifixit has SuperDrives for about $150 (late 2008 MBP) and has detailed instructions to replace it yourself).
P,S, you have tested the bad drive with at least one or more other discs though, right? Just to be sure.

JS/AS - Open file without warning dialogs

I have files with placed raster images that when opened need to be relinked. Relinking them is actually the first procedure of my script however I need illustrator to open the file without throwing me an error dialog asking me to repair the link. I've searched through the documentation but haven't found a param to pass, or a different method to call for opening without dialogs. Applescript has a 'without dialog' option for open but it doesn't work for this dialog, that i've found. And JS doesn't have an options that i can find in the documentation for open();
Thanks

Hi,
Maybe the app.userInteractionLevel helps you.
Maybe not :-)

Open indd without warning message

Hi....
currently i am working on a batch job to open indd files from a folder. But those file have character set and image link missing. Once the file is opened, it will pop up the warning windows, and my script can't close the file as well. Finally, it will come up an error because of the warning windows is still open.
Is there any method to disable warning message?
my code is something like:
var myFolder = Folder("C:\\temp_indd");
var myINDD = myFolder.getFiles("*.indd");
for (f = 0; f < myINDD.length; f++) {
    app.open(myINDD[f]);
    do_something();
    myINDD[f].close();
Chris

Set the user interaction level to ignore each and every warning:
// The script does not display any dialogs or alerts.
app.scriptPreferences.userInteractionLevel = UserInteractionLevels.NEVER_INTERACT;
and make sure this gets reset after your script is done -- because otherwise, InDesign will not display any dialogs and alerts at all:
// The script displays all dialogs and alerts.
app.scriptPreferences.userInteractionLevel =
UserInteractionLevels.INTERACT_WITH_ALL;
even though the description says "The script ...", this applies to the entire program, not just 'the script'.

Why does my iPad shut down randomly without warning?

My iPad will randomly shut down while I am using it. The battery is fully charged. I can beonthe Internet or een reading a book and the screen will o black. When I "restart" it, it goes ire toy back to screening was using. Any ideas why? Yes the software is current.

Generally? it's like when a computer crashes. the operating system gets over whelmed and shuts down or reboots.
Sometimes it's not that big of a deal, other times it may be caused by an app with a glitch or error. Sometimes your iPad is fine, but the app has an error in it.
One thing to do is to do a reset. hold down the sleep and home button for about 20 seconds. When you see the silver apple, let it reboot. Often if there's any sort of glitch or 'oops' the reset and reboot will allow the iPad's memory to clear and resolve the issue.

Has anyone experienced their iphone5 randomly shuts off without warning?

i often have this problem with my iphone5, it just turns off randomly without warning. i press the home button and the sleep/wake button at the same time to turn it on again. i thought at first it was a batterry issue, but the thing is it happens randomly, sometimes at 50%, 80% and 30% battery life.
one minute i'm using it normally, then after a few minutes being idle, i find out its already shut down.
any solutions?

I am having the same problem on a 12 inch PowerBook. I left it in sleep mode for a couple of days and when I went to use it, I noticed that it was very warm and that it had shut down. When I hit the power button, it gave the usual chime but would not start. I tried various things and finally removed the 1 gig RAM chip to see if that was the problem and it started fine so at first I thought it was the RAM. But I put the RAM back in and it started fine so now I think it was overheating. I've noticed before when it was asleep that it was not cooling off so it seems to be drawing power while asleep. Any suggestions on how to trouble shoot this?

Thanks in advance.

Thank you ! It worked I was headed there but wasnt sure if that was the right action or not.
I was affraid it would just pick up where it left off.
UGH. That was my first experience with that in several years of pc use LOL.
If my disc drive works I guess it didnt hurt it? It was running kinda hard after but seems okay.

Protective strip in MacBook Pro disc drive?

While installing some software on my MacBook Pro, I noticed that a thin strip made of some type of plastic or protective coating came loose when my DVD drive kicked out the disc. The gray strand is about as long as the disc drive opening. Is this something that protects discs from scratching in the drive? Or is it something that I can just tear off and not worry about? Has anyone else had this issue? Thanks!

i just got the same problem, my macbook pro is less then a week old and when it spat out a disk it also ripped the protective felt strip from the entrance to the optical drive, i just tore the last little bit off that was attached. these things are really annoying when you try and keep your macbook pro in pristine condition after spending nearly AU $4000 on it. should i take it back to the apple dealer from were i bought it? or just not worry about it.
This is it here...

Mac book pro shuts down without warning

So I have the mid 2012 mac book pro 13 inch and recently its been turning off randomly without warning and I tried resetting the pram and smc and it didnt do a thing plus when I click on the battery icon on top menu bar it usually says service or replace battery but now no error comes up and sometimes it will go from about 0 percent back to 100 percent but the strange part about this whole thing is that when the computer shuts off and I turn it back on the battery is still at 100 percent

You should take it in to an authorized service place for testing/service.

Firmware 1.1 Update and disc drive door....

Hey there,
I performed the Firmware Updater 1.1 this morning per the instructions and while the MacPro was running the updater, the door to my disc drive opened but the tray remained inside the machine.
The MacPro restarted and ever since then, no matter how I try to open or close the drive (yes, the tray operates fine and opens/closes as it should) the sliding grey door remains open.
Any ideas how to get this door to close and keep out dust?
Many thanks
MacPro 2.66GB Mac OS X (10.4.7)

There are a number of suggestions in this thread which may be of help to you..
http://tinyurl.com/y4vobd
The "fixes" seem to range from tapping the drive door, to moving it to the lower bay (if empty), to loosening a screw on the door mechanism and finally having Apple replace the unit as it was the outside case which caused the defect.
I have seen similar threads..can't remember exactly...but maybe Max FixIt.

How do I clean my hard drive to re-sell without a working disc drive?

I have macbook pro snow leopard. I wanted to clean my hard drive so all my files, informaion, and password get deleted so I can re-sell it. The problem is even though I have the installation disc, my disc drive isn't working... I tried putting my usb disc drive I got from apple, but the computer can't recognize it.
Is there anyway I can clean my hard drive without having to use a disc drive?

The easiest way to erase the HDD on the older MBP is to connect it to your newer MBP with a Firewire cable and set up Target disk mode. Open Disk Utility>Erase on the controlling MBP and erase the Target MBP HDD.

This way, no DVD drive, external or internal, is needed.
