Freezing machine on first day

I just bought a MacBook Pro and then spent an hour or so doing all the updates and setting it up. Then my machine froze up. I was unable to restart and had to hold down the power button to get it to start again. I've had the machine for 48 hours and am worried maybe I this machine may have problems. Should I live with it or go back to the Apple store to try to exchange the actual machine?

I had similar issues with my brand new MBP. I took it to the Apple store where purchased because I was pretty ticked off. You see, I am a PC convert. I thought for sure that if I went to Macs I would be free of freezes (or so the commercial says) The apple man at the store was ok. He suggested to turn time machine off and just back-up manually. He said this software has given him lots of issues in the past. Well I did that. So far, after just a few hours of testing it seems to work properly. I am not convinced that is the total issue. My MBP has frozen up many times in the last week since purchase. But since I don't know much about Macs I will have to take his word for it...for now.

  • For two days I have been getting intermitant interference sounding like a radio program with the first day in Spanish.

    I have 7.0.1 and Lion installed on a Mac book pro. The first day Spanish programing just started playing with no one at the computer. The second day the interference was in English having to quit Firefox to get it to stop.
    I rebooted and cleaned the system but it has reoccurred. I have used iGoogle as my default homepage flawlessly for 2 years with this only occurring after I sign into iGoogle from the Google search page.
    This machine is used for business only and not exposed elsewhere. Any thoughts before I remove and reinstall?

    It is possible that there is a problem with the files sessionstore.js and sessionstore.bak in the Firefox Profile Folder.
    Delete the files sessionstore.js [2] and sessionstore.bak in the Firefox Profile Folder.

    If you see files sessionstore-##.js with a number in the left part of the name like sessionstore-1.js then delete those as well.<br />
    Deleting sessionstore.js will cause App Tabs and Tab Groups and open and closed (undo) tabs to get lost, so you will have to create them again (make a note or bookmark them).

  • I can't find something that was there on the first day

    On the first day of exploring my iMac, I stumbled across this utility where you could pick a person, man or woman, and pick a language and also a nationality. For example, you could pick a guy named Pierre, choose English, and French nationality, and it would speak in English with that accent. I think but am not sure it had something to do with creating an avatar to use somewhere.
    I haven't been able to find it since, although I have searched everywhere I can think of. I don't know what application it was in. The only thing I have on here that didn't come with the machine is iWork, so I'm sure it was something in an application or utility that came with the machine.
    Does anyone recognize what it is I'm talking about, and where I could find it again?

    No, there was a box that contained an animated cartoon character of a guy or a woman depending on what you chose, and then some names underneath, each having a different voice/language. I remember the voice called "Pierre" which was specified as Quebec French. You could then type in a sentence or some words, and click play, and the character would speak it in the language/accent that you chose. I've gone through the whole help file, and everything in the System Preferences, and can't find it. I've also checked the help files for iChat and Photobooth, and anything else that looks relevant.

  • HT2513 Changing First Day of the week shown in week view in iCal

    How do you change the week view of iCal from Sun to Mon. I have done it beofre ios 6. How does one do this since ios 6?

  • Calendar.app not showing First Day of Week selected in iCal

    I have selected Monday as the first day of the week in iCal. After syncing, Calendar.app on my iPhone 4 does not show Monday as first day of week. My original iPhone 2G (3.1.3, jailbroken) does show the correct start day, Monday.)
    I do not need assistance with my iPhone 2G. I need a solution for my iPhone 4.
    How do I get my iPhone 4 to be in sync with my other calendars?

    That's a real pain. I'm in Australia and the regional settings have Monday as the first week, which throws me out because all my calendars and even settings in iCal have Sunday as the first day of the week (which is what it's supposed to be). To get what I want, I have to set my country as New Zealand, and this messes up my phone number formats (closest to Australia than any of the others that start the week correctly though). It should be an option in the settings!

  • On my iPad 3, how do I make calendar items lasting more than one day appear as such on the monthly view of my calendar? Right now only the first day of the item appears.

    On iPad 3, all of my calendar items lasting more than one day do not appear correctly when looking at the monthly view of the calendar; only the first day of the appointment appears. For example, if I am taking a vacation for 4 days, only the first day of the vacation is marked on the calendar, instead of being listed on all 4 days. When I look at the weekly view, however, it is correct and is listed on all 4 days. The problem here of course is that at a glance, there is no way to look at my monthly schedule. On my iPhone, everything is correct, regardless of month or week view, so clearly this is an iPad problem I guess? Please advise on how this can be corrected. Thank you!

    Unfortunately you can't do what you want. Many people have complained to Apple about this. I suggest you provide Apple feedback directly at http://www.apple.com/feedback/macosx.html. They will not provide a direct response but hopefully if enough people provide feedback Apple will fix this.

    Hello there, HelpMePlease117.
    There is a good Knowledge Base article that helps resolve authorization issues you might want to look over:

  • Multi-day events only showing up on first day of event in year view

    There are several things about iCal that I find annoying (makes me miss my old Palm PDA sometimes), such as being able to set my own default meeting times, meetings being defaulted to all-day, no way to connect a contact to the event without having to invite them to join (my old Palm did this and it was a very useful tool). Each of these has many discussions already on these topics with a solution (except adding a contact to an event), such as simply typing in the meeting time when you setup the event.
    However, I can't find a discussion on the following question, and therefore no solution. Hope someone out there knows the answer:
    Why do Multi-day events only show up on the first day of the event in year view, and is there a way to change it?
    Thanks in advance!

    Greetings,
    Perhaps I'm not setting up my events as you are but I see a color for each day of my multi-day event.
    My steps:
    1. Add a multi-day event to iCal:
    2. Switch to Year view and observe the matching date range (26th - 29th):
    Suggestions:
    Make sure you have all your updates installed (Apple > Software Update).
    Toggle the "all day" check box for the events in question and see if that makes the events show up in Year view.
    If that doesn't help, please provide a screen shot of the edit window of the event in question so we can see how you have it configured:
    Cheers!

  • ABAP for the first day of the month

    Hello BW users,
    I have a scenario which uses an ODS with cumulative key figures with Addition update type. An infocube gets data from ODS by start routine in cube's update rule. I update this ODS first then infocube. All the loads are Full and are loaded daily. This is a snapshot scenario and I load the ods on itself then load from another infocube let's say Cube1. After successful load, I update infocube on itself again then update from the same infocube, Cube1, as in ODS. Infocube load sequence is same as ODS. In the scenario ODS and infocube are wanted to be updated daily. Therefore, I have to delete the ODS's (since it is addition update type) and infocube's overlapping data in the process chain that automates the load. At this point I need two things:
    1- ABAP program that is going to give me the first day of each month.
    2- ABAP program that is going to delete the overlapping data in ODS when I load it daily. Since I can do that for infocube in process chain with standard process type of Delete overlapping requests from infocube I need it only for ODS. Because there is no standard process type to delete overlapping requests in ODS (since its update type is Addition).
    I appreciate your help. Thank you in advance.
    Sincerely,

    1- ABAP program that is going to give me the first day of each month.
    if sy-datun+6(2) = 01.
    SY-FDAYW should give you the day

  • First Day of Week

    Hi Guys,
    In a class I have an object which shows the date when a transaction was triggered and another object which gives the week number in the format wwyyyy.
    I want to create a variable in the report which will give me the starting day for that particular week i.e the date that was there on Monday of that particular week.
    It can be easily done by making changes in the Universe but I want to do it in the report as this is a one of report.
    Cheers,
    Shazin

    Guys,
    I have devised a method for the below and we can easily find out the week numbers of the month as below:
    Week Numb:
    =Week([WO's Last Month ].[Submit Date])
    First Day of the Month:
    =Week(RelativeDate(LastDayOfMonth(RelativeDate(LastDayOfMonth(CurrentDate());-65));1))
    Week Numb of the Month:
    =Concatenation("Week : ";([Week Numb - WO's Last Month]-[Last Day - WO's Last Month])+1)
    Please let me know if in case any queries.
    Cheers,
    Shaz

  • Changing first day of week in Calendar help

    Hi,
    I want to change the first day of week from Monday to Sunday in Webdynpro ABAP screen's default calendar help. I implemented BADI CALENDAR_DEFINITION to change the first day of week, it worked for SAP GUI calendar help but not working for WebDynpro ABAP screen.
    Thanks,
    Alok

    Hi,
    Try using the data type TVDIR-GENDATE for date field. It will populate serach help Calendar and it should trigger the BADI from web dynpro also.
    Refer SAP Help. It is pointing to the same BADI.

  • First Day of Week in Data Entry Profile

    Does anyone know if there is a standard SAP RFC i can use in my Web Dynpro application to get the First Day of Week entry in a user's Data Entry Profile?
    Thanks,
    -Kevin

    Hello Kevin,
    Function Module returns the System Date from that SAP System(R/3). I have checked this BAPI with '200743 - current week' GET_WEEK_INFO_BASED_ON_DATE, it returns proper data like Start Date and End Date.
    I Assume, you are using this in your Java WD. You can write your own function for this. This will return the day of the week.
    Calendar xmas = new GregorianCalendar(2007, Calendar.SEPTEMBER, 23);
    int dayOfWeek = xmas.get(Calendar.DAY_OF_WEEK);
    wdComponentAPI.getMessageManager().reportSuccess("Day : "+dayOfWeek);
    Note : - week starts with 0 . 0 - Monday 6 -Saturday.
