Firware Update Messed with Fan

Hi All, I just installed the latest friware update for my Macbook.
The fan used to run full speed after a little while of paying a game, or watching a DVD. Now the fan runs FULL speed all the time while doing those things. I can no longer watch a movie or play a game with out a loud whirring sound. This makes for a tough quiet time or when i am in the library.
Does anyone know what to do about the constant noise, or how to unistall the firware update?
Thanks,
Pete

My MacBook started doing the same thing after installing the Firmware Update. I read several posts but did not find a solution. I called Apple and here is how we fixed it:
-Disconnect everything from the computer including the AC powercord
-Quit all programs and shut the computer down
-Turn the computer over and take out the battery
-Turn the computer back over with the battery out and open the screen
-Press and hold down the power button for a FULL 5 seconds then release it
-Turn the computer over and put the battery back in
-Connect the AC power cord
-Press the power button - as soon as you hear the startup chime hold down the Apple key, the option key, the P key, and the R key. When you hear the chime again release all 4 keys.
-You have just reset the PMMU and the PRAM
-My fan has not come back on since!!!!!

Edge update messed with timing of objects (was: Adobe Edge update - bugs)

Creating simple animations for e-cards and the new update definitely messed with timing of objects, and is creating erroneous instances of symbols.
Still can load the original version and plays fine, but just loading the version in the _updated folder that was created when original version was opened after update is messed up.
Really disappointed with this update, I really dislike doing my work twice.

Hi Jess
We are investigation the problem and is being tracked in our internal issue tracker.
Thanks for reporting the same.

10.5.7 Update Correlates With Fans Running Continually

After updating to 10.5.7, my MacBook's fans seem to run continually.
If I Restart, they will stop for about 10 minutes, then return to continual running.
As possible solutions, I tried:
- zapping the PRAM,
- reinstalling the update.
Neither worked.
Has anyone else experienced this?

Hi Thomas Hollingsworth;
Do you know what temperature your MB is running at?
Is anything blocking the air inlets or outlets?
If that fails you might turn Activity Monitor and see if anything is running that might elevate the temperature.

New Update messed with my Application

I tried to open FCE today and an error message came up that says I need a video card compatible with Quartz extreme or something along those lines. That my system doesn't meet the minimum requirements. I've had FCE installed and have been using it for the past two years on the same machine and it is now telling me that its not compatible with my mac and wont open. The same goes for iMovie. I tried opening iMovie and it says it needs that video card that is compatible. This hasn't happened before and I have used both on this mac before without any problem.
I have the Black MacBook purchased I believe in 2008. Never had a problem with Final Cut before and have used it to produce many home movies. Any idea what's wrong/how I can fix it?

I'm running an intel macbook with FCE version 4.0.1 and quicktime version 7.6.6. Im not sure what the updates where but they were the 2 most recent ones within the last two weeks. What's strange is that iMovie isn't working either. I tried pressing escape but nothing worked.

Firmware update messed with airport.

After downloading firmware update my airport wont work.
any ideas???
thanx in advance

I reset the Airport Router. I downloaded a new Airport Utility. Airport bars come up, but Airport light is flashing amber. When I opened the Utility, it did find the router (whereas before there was no router). I went through the Utility and when it came to "update" I click on continue. Error!!!! Airport lost again.
I reset Airport Router again. Went through Utility but did not update. I know have internet on both computers (had to go through same thing on laptop, but did not click on continue update. Learned my lesson there. I do believe that the problem with the firmware update is the Utility Update. Don't click on continue, wait for Apple to fix it.

ICloud update messes with Regional Settings on non-English Windows 7

I have Windows 7 in French.
Since the recent update of iCloud (and also iTunes and Quicktime), my other software (Sage 50 Accounting) is dropping the digits entered after the decimal point.
Strangely, while I have iCloud installed, when I open Sage 50 Accounting first and then select my data file to open, the problem occurs, yet if instead I open the data file directly and let Windows open the associated software (Sage 50 Accounting), the problem doesn't occur.
If I uninstall iCloud, the problem is resolved, however, I'd like to continue using iCloud if possible.
Any ideas what's going on here?

It appears that you did not follow the step in Bootcamp Assistant where you were to download the Windows Support software. You then had to install the Support software from within Windows. Did you do that step? The display drivers are part of the Support software.

Security updates messed with dock, peripherals

I installed a security update today for my eMac (OSX Tiger), and upon restart my dock is nowhere to be found (dock preferences show it to be set for bottom loading). In addition, it's not recognizing my HP printer/scanner. Oh, and I cannot minimize any open programs. Weird. Any thoughts?

Airport update messes with Magic Mouse swiping

After installing the update and restarting, and having repaired permissions before and after, the swiping function of the MM stopped working. It was necessary to re-install the MM driver in order to get it working again. Anyone else experience this?

Yes! After installing the update just 15 minutes ago the swipe function quit. I have repaired permissions but I guess I will have to re-install the driver too..

10.4.11 update messes with Boot Camp beta

I am posting this again as my post is way down another discussion.
I did the update yeterday without knowing about the bug. Now Windows XP won't start up in boot camp. This is really annoying. Mac OS X boots fine.
So. Can I downgrade from 10.4.11 to 10.4.6 without having to reinstall all the other applications? What about Boot Camp? Is this an option I select from the utilities available on the install disk?
What about archive and install? Will that archive all my applications and data so I don't have to do reinstalls?
Otherwise, what if I upgrade to 10.5? Will this fix the problem without me having to redo the whole Windows installation? There is a lot of data, most of it is backed up but still a pain to restore.
I have looked at other responses to this problem but not found the definitive answer.

What if I do upgrade to 10.5 - will that update the system without having to reinstall Win XP etc?

As you can see - I've been looking around a lot!

NAT update Messed with automatic back up

as i was working on my mac, a pop up window asking me to update to NAT security for the time capsule. i did this and i got the flashing amber light and could not get online. i used the reset button on time capsule and then reset my airport config. was able to get online. tried to manually back up and got a failed message. went thru this a few more times. finally erased my back ups, thinking that would solve the issue, no luck. tried disk utility - couldn't see TC. any help is appreciated. thanks.

Neither the Time Capsule nor its disk will appear in Disk Utility.
The Time Capsule itself should appear under Shared in Finder and should be discovered by the Airport Utility.
The Time capsule disk should appear in a Finder Window if you click on the Time Capsule name in Finder. The disk should also appear in the Airport Utility -> Manual Setup -> Disks.
Does your TC appear in any or all of these 'venues.'
When a backup fails the little red 'i' nest to failed should reveal a reason if you click on it. The reason may be fairly general but it's a start.
Also the system.log in Console may give more details about the failure. The relevant entries include not only 'Time Capsule', Time machine but also 'backupdb.'

Is the newest update messing with Netflix???

I've had a similar problem. On my first boot up after installing 10.7.4, Firefox would not open. Crashed every time. Safari was not affected. I have no idea if it was related to the flash plugin, but I did install a the latest version of that a couple of weeks ago.
Here's what fixed it: a second boot up.

Will updating from Snow Leopard to Lion mess with Garageband 09?

Hey guys, I just bought some software that requires OS X 10.7.5 so I need to update my Macbook pro if I want to be able to use it.. I just fear something happening to Garageband. Does anyone know if it'll mess with anything? I'd prefer not having to update to '11.

Your previous 10.6 based software may not work in 10.7 because Rosetta was discontinued in 10.7
http://roaringapps.com/apps:table
My advice, given the way your talking shows your age, is not to do anything, just software update and remain on 10.6.8.
maintain your backups, because if you jump to 10.7 your going to have issues and software you have installed is not going to work and your going to want to go back to 10.6
I've written a guide, but I don't think you can follow it.
How to revert your Mac to Snow Leopard
 Most commonly used backup methods explained
10.8 is coming out very soon, so wait for that and get it (or 10.9) on a new machine next time.
Your a very basic comptuer user, upgrading the operating system is a sudden drastic change and many problems can arrise which you won't know how to fix, you'll have to pay someone to fix them.
So why do that and have to buy all new software?
Apple makes it seem it's easy to upgrade the OS, but when software no longer works they don't care.

Multiple Libraries: DON'T MESS WITH MY ORGANIZATION!

Many music/audio fans are obsessive about how they organize their collections (see the movie/book "High Fidelity"), and I am one of them. I've spent HOURS organizing my iTunes Library, and I'm very protective about my genres.
About 50% of my iPod use is listening to audio books from Audible.com. I've always kept these books in a genre called Spoken Word, along with other spoken files (podcasts, etc.)
Low and behold, I install iTunes 7, and my Audible files are gone. I try to re-import them, and noting happens. I spend a couple of hours searching around online but turn up no info.
Finally, I notice that iTunes 7 has created a new Library called "Audiobooks" and moved all my Audible titles into it.
Well, I'm relieved that they aren't gone, but I'm still really ****** off. I don't want two Libraries. I want my titles to be organized the way I organized them. Why is Apple pushing their organization on me?
And, as-far-as I can tell, there's no way of changing this. If iTunes is going to create multiple Libraries, I should be able to drag titles from one to the other. Or I should be able to right-click a title, choose Info, and be able to switch Libraries, just as I can switch genres.
Now some of my spoken content (Audible) is in one Library and some (non-audible) is in another. I HATE that.
Worse, there no way (unless I'm missing something) to search all Libraries. For instance, I listen to "The Ricky Gervais Show." Some I downloaded from Audible and some I got from elsewhere. If I search for Gervais, I only get the items in the currently-selected Library.
This makes me really scared to install future updates. I don't want iTunes to mess with my organization any more. I have thousands of files, and I want to be able to fine them easily.
DON'T MESS WITH MY LIBRARY, APPLE!
5G 60Gig Windows XP Pro

Yes, that's what is showing as "modified time" by windows explorer.
In a sense, it is indeed operating system dependent because everytime you write in a file (.doc, .exe, .whatever and in our case .jpeg), the modified date will change in windows.
Yes, But.
In other applications, such as Irfanview, you can tick "apply original exif time/date" and as a result, even though you have indeed changed the file, windows explorer will still show the original date, meaning when the file was taken.
I am looking for a similar option in Lightroom or a trick to get that result.

Mess with accounts in OneNote and OneDrive for Business - can't open documents from Office 365

Hello!
[Reposted from
here]
I've got Office 365 subscription (E3) with Office.
I can view and edit OneNote notebooks on Office 365 via browser, but can't open it in OneNote.
The similar problem exists for OneDrive for Business - some libraries are syncing, some cannot - asking for Enter credentials, but when I click - nothing happens.
There were two accounts bound to Office 2013 - personal Microsoft ID as primary account and corporate Office 365 linked to it.
Windows 8.1 corporate profile is linked to Microsoft ID account as well.
Something happen with these accounts after password was changed - it seems like some account information was cached and can't be cleaned.
I tried to uninstall Office and install it - no success.
I cleaned computer with
this utility from Support - no luck.
On other Windows 8.1 computer I created new profile (with Microsoft ID account) - surprise, there are problems there as well.
I deleted all Office15 entries from Credentials Manager - Office asked me about Office 365 login/password - I entered them, it is syncing, Haliluja, but, when Microsoft ID account was linked to Office 365 account in Office - problem appears again.
It seems that Office 2013 uses Microsoft ID credentials for Office 365 content.
I'd like to use Microsoft ID as primary account for Office and link Office 365 account to it, but don't want such problems. It worked fine, but I don't know what happened and how it can be analyzed and fixed.
Update: It seems I localized the problem, but still don't know the solution.
Scenario to reproduce error for me:
1. Create fresh new Corporate/Domain user profile on Windows 8.1 with Office Pro 365 installed on computer with latest updates
2. Go to SharePoint Online and browse some Libraries and OneNote notebooks - all ok
3. Start to sync them using OneNote and OneDrive for Business - ok
4. Link Microsoft Account with Corporate Account in Windows 8.1 - ok
5. Syncing of _some_ (not all) Office 365 libraries and notebooks stop working - errors with access, permissions. I'm trying to enter credentials but this doesn't help
6. Disconnect Microsoft Account and Reboot - all libraries and notebooks of Office 365 work fine again. But OneNote notebooks from OneDrive stop working :)
How I can fix this situation and have Microsoft and Corporate account connected?

Update 2:
I installed PowerShell for SharePoint online cmdlets and found this user using get-SPOUser.
I removed this user using remove-SPOUser -site
https://mysitename.sharepoint.com -LoginName
[email protected]
but when I'm trying to access sharepoint from the browser with Microsoft account credentials - new record for this user is created again and I can see it with get-SPOUser :(
So, problem is still not solved - this user is still can be authenticated (there is no such user in SharePoint site collection, there is no such user profile) and Office 2013 syncing doesn't work for Office 365 due this mess with accounts.
I know that I can remove Sharing with external users from Site Collection and information about these users will be permanently deleted - but I don't want to do this, there are several customers who work with our documents.
