G5 Dual @ GHz Shuts down completely when using Compresor 2

Has anyone else encountered this? I was having this problem with Compressor 1.2 in Panther, and I thought upgrading to Tiger and Compressor 2 had solved it, but it has come back.
when I process a particularly intense video file to MPEG-2, no matter how I do it (from within FCP, QuickTime or Compressor) the system will do a hard shutdown.
Not a crash, but an actual power down.
Apple reps looked at this before, but could not replicate it. I never encountered this until Compressor came out.

Maybe your box is overheating. You could try (1) lowering the compression job priority in case OS X has trouble running it's fan control timely when there's compression to do, (2) altering the cpu performance settings from energy saver preferences, (3) putting your box into fridge or removing the warm blanket around it

    Windows 7 shuts down completely when laptop not in use, closing all programs.
    when I want to start using it again I get "Windows did not shut down properly" screen and have to restart.
    Other pc's normally just require password to return to previous state. I would like to know how to amend this, pls?

    Hallo
    I understand what happen but you dont offer any relevant info for better understanding.
    Do you use original OS that you got with your notebook?
    Have you installed some additional software that can be reason for this unexpected shutdown?
    Is your notebook on AC power supply when this happen?
    Does some application runs when this happen (download)?
    > Other pc's normally just require password to return to previous state. I would like to know how to amend this, pls?
    I dont understand what do you mean with this. Which password and which previous state?
    What you see on your notebook is normal for unexpected shutdown.

  • Windows 7 Laptop Shuts down router when using HomeGroup

    I just installed Windows 7 over the weekend on all my PCs (two desktops, one laptop).  When I bootup the laptop and connect wirelessly, all connectivity ceases (wired and wireless).  When I turn the laptop off, connectivity is restored. 
    Windows 7 has a new feature called "HomeGroups".  HomeGroups uses IPv6.  If I disable HomeGroups on the laptop (turned the Services off that run HomeGroups) then I no longer have connectivity issues.
    Could the router be the issue?  I have a WRT110.
    Thank you.

    Router has nothing to do with the operating system.The function of the router is to provide the ip address and the internet connection.Homegroup is basically for the file sharing purpose and all the computers should have Windows7 and homegroup enable to use it.Are you getting any error message when you are using the HomeGroup..? 
    Windows 7 and HomeGroups use IPv6. Does the WRT110 support IPv6?
    I don't get an error message because HomeGroup is completely shutting down the router.  As soon as I turned off HomeGroup (the services that are responsible for HomeGroup) the problem goes away.

  • How can I stop my computer from shutting down completely when I play fv2?

    Windows 7 64 bit.  My computer shuts down after 5 minutes of play on farmville2 and after about 20 minutes on farmville1 and gardens-of-time. I have followed all the instructions on the help page with no change. If anyone out there has any suggestions I certainly would appreciate them.

    Niel, thanks for putting me on the right track.  I had to go to the "advanced" section of the Security & Privacy pane of System Preferences to find that option.  I had almost given up searching the 4 tabs on the main page in vain.
    But I found it and it's turned off
    Thanks again

  • Imac safari browser shuts down automatically when using Flashplayer. Any fix ?

    safari shuts down automatically in combo with FlashPlayer.  Any fix ?

    You may have a Safari add on installed that's not compatible with Flash. A crash report may reveal what's going on...
    If Safari has just crashed, press the Report button on the CrashReporter dialog box to view the crash  information.
    Copy/paste the entire contents of the Crash Reporter window into your reply. If the crash report dialog does not appear or the crash is hard to reproduce, crash logs can be retrieved from the ~/Library/Logs/CrashReporter> folder.
    Make sure and include the "binary images" section.
    BEFORE you post a crash report, reinstall Safari 5.0.6 for Leopard
    Retart your Mac, try Safari. If it still crashes, then post the report in your reply.

  • I tried downloading the iOS8 to my iPod 5th generation and when it finished downloading it shut down completely and it said there was an error and no the iPod is in recovery mode. What can I do to restore it and update it? Please, I need help.

    Hello,
    I recently tried downloading the IOS8 to my iPod 5th generation and when it was almost done the computer said there was an error. Right after that, the iPod shut down completely and now it's on recovery mode. I plugged it in and it said that I had to restore it and update it so I could use it again but it doesn't let me. What can I do? I even did a backup before the update.
    I really need help.

    What happens when you connect to computer and restore via iTunes?
    Without knowing that:
    Try:                                               
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on           
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try another cable       
    - Try on another computer                                                       
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • My macbook suddenly shut down, and when rebooted, imovie project was completely gone.  No record of it at all.  Have been working on it for days, and it has always been there.  Any way to restore it?  Thanks.

    My macbook suddenly shut down, and when rebooted, imovie project was completely gone.  No record of it at all.  Have been working on it for days, and it has always been there.  Other projects are still there.  Any way to restore it?  Thanks.

    I figured it out!!!
    Hey guys! Here's what I did that saved my project.
    -SHORT VERSION-
    Use the Finder window on your Mac to copy and paste your old project (the one not showing up in imovie) to a new folder so that iMovie will see it.
    -LONG VERSION-
    CONDITIONS:
    The project has to exist on your hard drive. To see if it's hiding around somewhere go to:
    Home (your name)>Movies>iMovie Library (right click and select Show Package Contents)
    In the iMovie Library folder (the default is usually the date) open it to see if your Project is inside. If it is, you are in luck!
    RESTORING PROJECT:
    Open iMovie
    start a new folder under the iMovie Library (again, the default is usually todays date)
    Close iMovie
    In the finder window (as explained above in the CONDITIONS section) select the files and folders of your project and copy them (in my case these consist of folders called Analysis Files, Original Media, "MYPROJECT", Render Files, Shared Items)
    There should now be a folder with today's date in that Show Package Contents folder.
    Paste a copy of your project;s files into this folder.
    When it is done copying, open up the "Original Media" folder and all of your images and clips should be present.
    reopen iMovie. Your project should show up in the Libraries list.
    *If your full project isn't showing in the iMovie timeline (mine just had empty bubbles where all my clips and audio should be) try dragging and dropping the clips and images from the project's "Original Media" folder into the import section of your project. Once the files were reimported, iMovie recognized them all and put them back in the correct place for me.
    Hope this helps someone!

  • Shut down automatically when downloads complete/finished

    Hi all,
    Does anyone know of a way to shut down automatically when downloads complete/finished (other than estimating how long they will be and modifying the energy saver schedule).
    Thanks, C.

    Guess not, huh.
    Seems like such an obvious feature?

    The iBook does not have a backup (PRAM) battery. It only has the main battery and a small capacitor which maintains the settings long enough to do a battery swap. If the battery is dead, what you are seeing can happen.
    If the battery is not a problem (or even if it is), you could try resetting the PMU and see if that helps.

    Hello vina8sy,
    After reviewing your post, it sounds like the iPhone will turn off after a sync but the iPad will not. I would recommend that you read this article, it may be able to help the issue.
    If your iOS device restarts, displays the Apple logo, or powers off while you're using it - Apple Support
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    Have a nice day,
