Downloading ML over 80 min's......how long will this go on???  MBP early 2011 running 10.7.3

downloading ML over 80 min's......how long will this go on???  MBP early 2011 running 10.7.3

I have a late 2009 MBP and I have noticed that just surfing the internet has caused the machine to run 20-30 degrees hotter. It used to hover around 40C (according to iStat...obviously it would climb under a load) when I was bumming around the net (no videos) and now it is anywhere between 60-70C doing the same stuff. I didn't really notice it till the other day when all I was doing was working on some bash scripts so at that point it was under very little load and it just seemed quite warm.

  • I rented a movie from the iTunes app....how long will this movie stay on my iPad?

    I have had my iPad for a couple of years but just now rented a movie for a flight I will be on....how long will the movie stay on my iPad....can you watch it more than once?  Also any awesome games out there to download that will not take wifi or data to play them?   Thanks!

    The unwatched rental will stay on the device for 30 days. If you are in the U.S. once you start watching the movie you have 24 hours to watch it as many times as you like, and you have 48 hours in other countries. Bear in mind that if you even start the movies for just two or three seconds and stop it, that starts the timer for the 24 hour or 48 hour time period, so don't start that timers until you are ready to watch the movie.
    I'm not a real big gamer anymore , so I can't help you there.

  • Mac mini update how long should this take?

    I accepted an update for it about 20mins ago, it rebooted and has just been sat there, not doing much? Do I just need patience, it makes the normal hard drive noises now and then.

    I don't know how long migration takes...it's a process frought with potential problems. I strongly suggest a clean install of OSX followed by clean installs of your software if it is at all possible. While it may seem like a pain, it's no worse than the 6 hrs + you have already spent. I think you'll find -most- folks here prefer to not use migration assistant. A short search on migration assistant will show you why.

  • How long will this MacBook Pro last me?

    I recently have received a mid-2009 macbook pro as a gift. I have upgraded the software to Mountain Lion (and most likely going to upgrade to Mavericks whenever it comes out). I am going to become a high school senior in the upcoming months. I was wondering how long this laptop would last me! I like gaming, but the graphics aren't that good even on low quality, but I'm sure this laptop will be fine for my last year of high school and til the end of college prehaps?
    Thanks,
    Christopher!
    Edit:
    I understand there isn't just a breakdown date or timer, but I am just asking for a guess from the community! Sorry for the confusion if there was any.
    Thank you!

    Your machine is about 4 years old and in it's end of life stage for a laptop.
    It al depends how much abuse the previous owner did to it, how much wear on the keyboard/Superdrive and on the graphics etc.
    I'd say another year or two and it's done.
    The reason gaming is bad it's because they are designed for PC towers and the latest graphics which a laptop you can't upgrade.
    Also the many OS X operating system versions also has a part as later OS X versions slow down older machines.
    If you want to 3D game, then get a PS4 or a Windows 7/8 3D gaming tower and upgrade the video card every couple of years to a better one.
    That's the only way, Mac's can't upgrade the video card anymore and new 3D games need better graphics.
    The only way one can keep a Mac a very long time is to take exceeding great care of it, all the wear and tear on external devices, then there is a limit to upgrading operating systems and Apple will begin denying security updates as well.
    Good luck

  • How to distinguish between screws on MBP Early 2011

    Hi guys,
    recently I have opened my MacBook Pro 13-inch (Early 2011) so that I could install new RAM inside.
    I followed the official Apple guideline (http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1270) which mentioned only "different size" of screws, and not where they are specifically located.
    The three longer #00 screws were easy to distinguish, but according to iFixit (which I found out after changing of the memory), there were also four 3.5mm shouldered Philips #00 screws. Since I thought all of the others except the three longer ones were the same, I screwed the rest of the screws in a random order back.
    My question is whether it's possible to somehow distinguish those shouldered and normal 3.5mm #00 screws? So that I could put them where they belong.
    Thanks for any help.

    This OWC installation video:
    http://eshop.macsales.com/installvideos/macbookpro_13_unibody_early11_mem/
    makes no mention of a third style of screw either.
    Reseaching that name, I came up with this image of a "shouldered Phillips":
    Note the significant diameter change between the threaded and unthreaded portion of the shank. See if you can see the difference among the screws. If it's not there, I'd ingore the whole thing.

  • How long will it take to install ios 7.0.6?

    Good day every one! May i ask if any body knows how long will  it take to install ios 7.0.6 on my ipad mini? Help lease.....

    I've just done the update directly on my iPhone from 7.0.4 to 7.0.6 and it took 15 minutes from start to finish - on my iPad yesterday it was similar.
    However you do the update, directly on your iPad or via your computer's iTunes (via your computer will be slower), then copy your purchases over to your computer's iTunes via File > Devices > Transfer Purchases and take a backup of your iPad - and preferably copy any important documents and/or photos off as well so that you have your own copy of them (the update should go smoothly, but it's best to be safe)

  • My iphone 4s is over 2 years old and I need to replace the battery. How much will this cost at an Apple store?

    I have an iphone 4s that is  over 2 years old. The phone's battery is no longer able to hold a  charge for an acceptable length of time.  Assuming I need to replace the battery, how much will this cost at an Apple store?

    Basically, I'm new to Apple, despite using them before, but I've never actually owned my own.
    Since buying this phone off a colleague at work, I seem to be having problems with it. First, I noticed how rubbish the battery life is, then my charger almost went up in flames and thirdly my camera lense is scratched beyond belief.
    I know the phone isn't within warranty, although I was lead to believe it was before and during buying it, so basically I'm extremely disappointed with the general make up of iPhone's considering they cost such a **** of a lot of money, you'd think they'd be built to last.
    Back to my main point, how much would it cost for a new battery? Or a new camera lense if anyone can help me with that? (I know that the back of the phone was refurbished just before my buying it, so literally just the camera lense)
    Thanks!
    So basically it sounds like you bought an abused used iPhone and somehow that makes the phone subpar because dispite the abuse it should still last forever and look like new? Batteries don't last forever, even under ideal conditions, so your expectatoins are unrealistic. Take it in and have an estimate done.

  • How long will a ios5.1 update take?

    HOW LONG WILL A IOS 5.1 UPDATE TAKE ON AN IPAD2?? i AM URGED TO KNOW!!!

    Including the download? Depends on your connection speed. The actual installation only takes a few minutes, but downloading it could take a while. I'd allow a couple of hours to be safe.

  • How long will it take to install Illustrator on a fast computer?

    How long will it take to install Illustrator on a fast computer?

    Hi Supertec2u2,
    For a computer connected to high speed internet the download will take not more than 3 to 5 minutes.
    And for an equally fast computer with good processing speed the installation would not take more than 5 minutes.

  • I just got one of the new iMac.  following the on screen instructions to do migration assist.  I guess it connected via wifi to my old iMac.  now it seems to have stopped.  what can I do to not mess it all up?  how long will it take on wifi?

    I just got a new iMac.  was following the onscreen instructions to do migration assistance and I guess it connected to my old iMac via wi fi. It never instructed me to connect via firewire.  Now it seems to have stopped.  what can I do that won't completely mess it up?  how Long will it take to do over wi fi?

    Your new iMac does not have a Firewire port so you ned this adapter:

  • How long will quicktime pro movie record?

    how long will quicktime pro movie record? i'm would like to record a 10+min onscreen movie clip. dont want to purchase if there a limit to recording time. thanks. owen

    I'd suggest you ask this question in the QuickTime for Mac forum. QuickTime for Windows doesn't have the video capture feature, so this probably isn't the best place for you to get a quick answer.
    Regards.

    how long will quicktime pro movie record?
    That depends. How much free space do you have available on a single drive? Which compression format do you plan to use? How fast is your CPU. Barring the unexpected, QT 7 Pro will record until it runs out of scratch space. Frame rates are dependent on your CPU power which means newer, more powerful platforms record more frames per second and thus tend to have higher data rates up to the max standard for the system. Lastly, the compression format/device type/device capture size/graphic complexity combination also determines the average data rate. So, as long as the average data rate times the duration of the clip is less than the amount of free space available on your hard drive, you can record continuously.
    i would like to record a 10+min onscreen movie clip.
    If by "oncscreen" movie you are referring to a "screen capture" of a movie, the QT 7 Pro will not do this. You either need to use a third-party screen capture application or upgrade to Snow Leopard for QT X "screen capture" capabilities.
