Excessive Heat from 23" Displays

Has anyone heard of excessive heat coming from the 23" display when you have 2 attached to a new G5? The heat comes directly from the screens. This is not for me but a friend has this problem and has asked if I knew of anyone that could help.

By "comes directly from the screens" does your friend mean that he/she can feel heat being emitted right from the front surface of the screen? Is that the objection? I can tell you that an LCD backlight is not completely free of near infra-red emissions. You will feel heat being thrown directly at you from the screen. But it is generally a pretty small amount until you get into large size, LCD TVs that have several, large backlight tubes. If you put your hand or face up close to one of those screens, you will feel a significant amout of radiated heat, like a space heater.
The amout of infra-red heat will diminish in proportion to the backlight level. Tell your friend to try turning down the brightness, if possible. That will also cut the heat coming through the screen.

  • Thinkpad X120e - SO MUCH heat from bottom of the laptop

    I Bought my new Leonovo Thinkpad X120e 10 days back. I get excessive heat from bottom of my laptop. I am unable to keep the laptop on my LAP for more than 5mins.. its so much heat. I am also getting heat from left side of the laptop. I think its from the heat ventilator. I installed TPFAN control software to look for temperatures. The CPU temp reads between 53 to 67 degree C.
    I took my laptop to a local lenovo service provider and he replaced he replaced Thermal module FRU 04W1380.. I thought the problem would be okay. But the same heat from bottom of the laptop and from side. The most annoying thing is the heat from bottom. I preferred small laptop as I can keep it on my lap and work for few hours. I am very disspointed with the heat. Can someone help me to solve this issue or is it normal that X120e dissipates heat from bottom of the laptop?

    An outside temperature of 33 degreees C (91 F) is normal, according to Notebookcheck. That's at load. At idle, it says the x120e should hit 28 degress C (82 F).
    It also says that processor temperature gets up to 90 degres C (194 F). Your processor temperature is well within normal.
    28 to 33 degrees C is warm, but I'll bet my old x100e has you beat. Notebookcheck records the old x100e as reaching 61 degrees C (142 F) on the underside! I mean, it's no longer a matter of warm jeans and a red spot on my legs. The thing gets so hot I could turn it upside down and cook an egg.
    Check to see that your AMD processor is downclocking itself properly in the Power Manager settings. If your x120e is clocked up to maximum performance settings, it's going to run as hot as it can. If you dial it back, it'll run cooler and you'll save some battery life.

  • Bulging Battery / excessive heat when charging

    Hello,
    I have a bit of a problem with my blackberry:
    1. Annoying unread messages that won't go away
    2. Excessive Heat when charging
    3. Bulging Battery
    Do you guys thinks that this warrants for a warranty exchange? Or is it ok for me to keep using it?

    With annoying unread messages, you have to deal it with your carrier if its SMS or email provider if its email.
    With bulging battery and excessive heat when charging - please refrain from using your phone while charging OR you may look for the best Blackberry charger (Model: PSMC04A) because the output is 700mA unlike the charger that came with your phone, its only 200-450mA. This is not meant to use while you are charging but because its a pretty fast charger, it doesnt take much time to complete the 100%

  • MacBook Pro wakes up when unplugging usb from cinema display

    Hi all,
    I have a 30" cinema display at work and a 23" at home which I use with my macbook pro. At work, I use a usb keyboard which stays plugged into the monitor. At home, I have a wireless keyboard and a usb printer plugged into the monitor. Thus in both cases, I plug the usb cable from the display into my laptop. I typically leave the MBP open so as to have the main display and the cinema display at the same time. When I leave home or work, I close to MBP to put it to sleep. However, upon unplugging the display and especially its usb cable, the laptop invariably wakes up, which is annoying.
    I tried leaving the MPB closed and putting it to sleep with the display's on/off button. Same behavior.
    Is there a setting to prevent usb 'signals' from waking up the computer? Should I proceed differently?
    Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

    I know this question is answered, but I didn't want to create another thread to discuss the same topic.
    I think this issue is rooted in the Cinema Display being attached to port 3 of it's own internal hub. This is to allow the display dimming, the power button that controls the sleep/wake of the laptop, etc. I just got my 30" cinema display a week or two ago, and before that was using an HP IPS LCD panel (24") that also had an integrated USB hub. I have the same devices attached too --USB hard drive for time machine, and keyboard (mighty mouse plugged in to keyboard). When unplugging the cable to the HP monitor's hub, the macbook would not wake up. Just with the Apple display.
    The problem with the hack/bandaid/workaround suggested is that to unplug the USB cable before sleeping the laptop, I need to open disk utility and eject the external drive first, else the system will complain. When the laptop goes to sleep, it runs a script (that I wrote) to eject the drive before sleeping, thus no error messages.
    Apple really needs to work on making "docking" work right. Until then, I'm using a Belkin USB hub which doesn't wake up the mac when unplugging it.

  • Cannot turn on computer from Cinema Display.  Why not?

    I have a G4 and recently bought a new 20" Cinema Display. To hook up I needed an ADC to DVI Adapter. Everything works except:
    1) I cannot turn on the computer from the Display. I can only do it from the computer power button, whereas I could with my older Studio Display. Why is this?
    2) If I put the computer to sleep, I can't wake it up with the touch of a button on the keyboard. Nor will it wake up by touching the Display power button. Once again it will only wake up if I press the computer power button. Is this normal?
    3) If I put the computer to sleep by pressing the Display power button, nothing will wake up the computer. It stays asleep. What the heck is going on here?

    You have 14 days from the date of purchase to return your computer with no questions asked.
    Why are you wasting time on a message board w/a spanking new Mac?  You should be ON THE PHONE with Apple first thing!

  • Macbook Pro dark screen after disconnecting from Cinema Display

    Dear all,
    the issue I am having:
    - after disconnecting from Cinema display (having first put my Macbook Pro in "sleep" mode) I just ca't make the Macbook pro scren show anything....black display
    - but is it really asleep? NO!!! It just STILL believes it's connected to the Cinema Display
    That's what I though was happening, so I thought: "if I now plug in the thunderbolt-to-VGA dongle that I use for the videoprojector then the screen might come back... and.... Voilá! It comes back, BUT starts flickering until in the end it just dissappears....
    I can reproduce the error all the time. Worse than that: a reboot does not help at all.
    Looks like there is an internal hardware switch that must be left "engaged" and then the Mac just believes it is connected to an External screen and sends the signal though the thuderbolt port instead of through the screen!!!
    WEIRD error/bug or whatever!!
    I have no idea how to make this reach the Apple guys.... I tried to report a Bug but they asked me to join in as Apple developer which I just can't do (for working issues).
    Can anyone tell me if they have had this problem, and whether Apple is taking care of it?
    (this reminds me of an issue with an internal switch with the headphones in my old MacBook Pro.... after disconnecting the headphones, the internal switch was not being disengaged, so sound would NEVER come out as it was being sent to the headphones instead of to the speakers... Same problem here but with the Image??? :-((( )

    Sometimes I experience the same after disconnecting my 24" display (in seldom cases, the mouse cursor is not painted correctly, as well).
    Can you check - when it happens - if in System Profiler > Hardware > Graphic > Quartz Extreme is listed as 'supported'. I found it to be 'not supported' when the scrolling and display behaves strangly. Also the Menu Bar is not transparent any more.
    Next to rebooting, logout and login again fixed the issue for me. But I am also looking for a better fix/explanation.

  • Powering up from Cinema display

    Hi all,
    Ive checked other posts about this and it seems it is possible for me to power up the whole Mac using the cinema buttons on the side. However in my system display preference it only gives me the option of:
    -power up (just) the display
    -putting the system to sleep
    and - do nothing.
    Theres nothing there that gives me the option to turn my WHOLE system ON/OFF. Is there anywhere else I should look at? My cpu is positioned under the table because Im a bit short of space so its always a hassle to powerup the machine.
    Thanks a lot in advance.
    Cheers

    Computer power up from the display is no longer an option. This was made possible by the "old style" propritary ADC connector which has been replaced by a more standard DVI connector with USB and FW breakouts.

  • After installing Mountain Lion my MacBookPro crashes after disconnecting from Cinema Display

    Ever since I installed Mountain Lion on my 15" MacBookPro (early 2011 first with Tunderbolt connector) it crashes after disconnecting from Cinema display (this Cinema does not have Thunderbolt but mini display port). It woked fine under Lion.
    This crash occurs in following situation:
    MacBookPro is in closed clam shell operation. When Cinema display is still connected, I put MacBookPro into sleep. Then I disconnect Cinema display mini diplay connector from Thuderbotl port.
    When I get home and open MacBookPro it is in deep kernel crash.
    It happens every time.
    Any ideas how to fix this?
    Thanks

  • Is there a way to prevent HTML from being displayed in forum?

    Is there a way to prevent HTML from being displayed in forum in BC to avoid linking to other sites on an eCommerce site?

    Thank you for your post!
    Unfortunately there isn't a way to restrict customers to post on your forums links to other sites.
    However what I suggest here is to choose to moderate each forum post and this way you can choose to approve or remove links from the posts sent by customers.
    I hope this helps!

  • No sound from Thunderbolt Display after update to OS X 10.9.3

    So I updated to 10.9.3 this morning only to find there is no sound coming from my Thunderbolt Display after installation. Sound is now only audible from my MacBook Pro (late 2011). Also, see image below, there is no sign of any connected inputs other than my MBP now. I've shutdown and restarted a number of times, but still no audio from the display.
    Really starting to wonder why it's worth spending so much on Apple products now...

    I sent my TB Display in for repair. They had it almost a week and didn't find anything wrong with it. Instead they took in my MacBook Pro and replaced the logic board (2nd time it had been replaced) and the Display seems to be working fine now.
    ...except that for using 3rd party video conf apps, those apps only pick up the MBP camera (even though i try to change settings in app), not the TBD camera... but FaceTime and Skype find the TBD camera.
    Strange.

    I completely agree with that sentiment. That's why we pay through the nose for their products, so it feels very bad when they don't just work.

  • How to disable Material Picking MB26 from Reservation display MB23

    Hello guys
    I have to know that disable picking option from display menu reservation t-code MB23. One of our user issued a material from reservation display function selecting picking option from menu and saved that lead to MIGO by MB26 even user does not have MB26 transaction authorization.
    thanks in advance
    Nath

    Hi FC
    Thank u for replying my issue. I have already checked your 2nd option by basis authorization to prevent auh.object by a user. This auh.object is link to Inventory management MM_B that lead to M_MRES_BWA,  M_MRES_WWA,  and M_MRES_WMG. It could not possible remove this authorization because this required for other Inventory management/physical Invertory function like material transfer posting by plant, movt type, etc...
    Also I have checked SHD0 will prevent disable a screen by variant, but here MB23 not only have to enable picking by a single screen but also there further more drill down screens and everywhere picking function is available to issue material by t-code MB26 even user does not have authorization MB26
    I might have doubt about MB23 screen, why SAP enable this picking function (MB26) in display reservation MB23.
    Display screens menu can not enable (should invisible gray) any functional activities if that person does not have MB26 authorization.
    Thanks in advance you guys if anyone have reasonable inputs.
