Getting a little ticked off here...
Ok, so I brought my MBP into the Apple Store to get fixed, due to an error code I received in the Apple Hardware Test -- it was something to do with the VideoController. So they ordered a new logic board, replaced mine, and once I got it back, I was insured that everything was fine. So I took it home, tested it out, and guess what? The original error is thankfully gone; however, in its place, I have a new error! It's as follows: *4SNS/1/40000000: Th2H*
Now, I did some testing within OS X, and all SEEMS fine, so I was willing to let it be and not bug me much. Until I noticed something... The two internal fans are now running constantly at 6000 RPM! There are NO applications running, and the computer is idle. All temps are also very, very low, and the computer is relatively cool to the touch, so I haven't got a clue as to why the fans are always so fast!
Anybody know what I can do about the fans or know what the above error code means?
It's a shame, it looks like I'm gonna have to go back to the apple store yet again, and let them take their time fixing my computer... I'm ticked.
S.U. wrote:
This error code has to do with the thermal sensors, and it appears that they may have not been reconnected when the logic board was replaced, causing the fans to run all out by default. This should be a quick and easy fix. I am guessing that they are disconnected rather than faulty since I assume that they were working prior to the logic board replacement. Failing to reconnect something is easy to do when installing something--I've done it myself. But I bet that is what the problem is, and they should be able to open up the case and connect the sensors and that will take care of the problem.
Good luck!
Hey thanks for the info! It gives me a little hope lol.
I have an appointment with a genius in about an hour, I'll let him know that could be the problem. After all, it makes complete sence, since the fans are just going on too quickly.

My stepdaughter has an ipod and used her mom's itunes account, now we set her up with her own itunes but I can only transfer purchased music to her library. How do I get all of her music off of her ipod? (she doesn't have all the cd's she used)
You may be able to buy a program to do this - not supported by Apple.
the ipod is not a storage device. The sync is one way - computer to ipod. The only exception is itunes purchaes.
The music should be on a computer as that is where they came from in the first place. -
So I brought my ibook G4 2 years ago in June before I came to college, and it worked great, then summer came and I left for the 2 months to go overseas, June and August, I come back in September and my ibook begins to have this clicking like ball droping noise sometimes in the area left of the mousepad, I've been told that, the area there is the hardrive, whenever the noises occur the computer slows down until the noise disappears, like it slows down to a stop basically, what I've found to get the noise away was hitting that area semi-hardly and the sound will go away, then theres the problem with the one or two over senstive keys, like my "a" or "i" the i button began to have a problem then it disappeared, 3 days ago the a button started acting up, and I do not know why. Someone please tell me what to do because this is really ticking me off, I thought I had a great computer, and then all of a sudden after the warrenty expired things started acting up again, I'm thinking maybe Apples doing this so I have to buy their 300 dollar warrenty again.
helpme765,
The standard warranty is one year. Unless you bought the AppleCare extended
warranty before it expired, you are out of luck.
The clicking noise could be one of two things.
1) The hard drive heads are parking. The system "freezes" until the platters
spin up to speed again.
2) The hard drive is dying.
The keys? Most likely cause - a liquid spill. Who was using your laptop while you
were away? Did you spill anything on it before you left?
Either way, it is always a VERY BAD IDEA(TM) to hit modern electronics. This approach
occasionally worked back in the days of vacuum tubes, when hitting a console might
re-seat the tubes and/or restore contact by flaking corrosion off the contacts.
Apple didn't break your laptop.

My iPhone 4s is only 4 months old, and it will not charge, I'm a little ticked off.
My Verizon iPhone 4s is only 4 months old and all of a sudden it's not charging, and the speakers work when they want to. The phone has never been water damaged. The phone has never been dropped on anything hard, always has had a case on it, and I'm seriously upset with this. None of my other apple products have I ever had a problem with.
It's under warranty. Take it in and let the genius have a look. If it's defective, it will be replaced.
So long as you didn't do something stupid like jailbreaking it. -
I need to get my Apple ID off of my old iPhone 5. I gifted my old iPhone 5 to my daughter as I got the new iPhone 6. I of course have no problems but my daughter can't update anything really without the store telling her to enter my password for my Apple Id. This is my third iPhone and I have never run across this problem before due to the fact my iPhone was never in great condition (#1) or I lost it and had to go retool at a retail store (#2). If there is any help for a poor guy like me let me know I'm racking my brains trying to tackle this one and it's not looking good for me. Thanks for trying to lend your expertise everyone.
Robert MayRight. To figure out which of the Updates is asking for your ID, do not click Update All. Click on each app, one at at time to Update (this would be under the Update option in the App Store - you will only see apps there with the Update next to them that actually have updates pending). If it asks for the password to your Apple ID, then that app should be deleted.
So, it is good that her ID is the one signed on to everything on the phone now. Once you delete the apps from the phone, then she will purchase new versions of those apps using the App Store on her device. When she does that, the app will be purchased with that ID (or if free, will be associated with that ID since it was the one that downloaded it).
If she is primarily concerned about her Line app and her photos but nothing else, then you can just press on one of the icons on each Home screens until they all wiggle, and then click on the little "x" in the upper left-hand corner of the icon to delete it. Core apps will not have an "x" since they cannot be deleted. So, just delete everything with an "x" except the Line app....
Cheers,

how do you transfer Apple IDs from one ipad to another iPad? I got the new ipad and gave my ipad 2 to my wife who had the first version and now I can't get my Apple ID off so she can use her Apple ID.
You don't transfer Apple ID's from one device to another one. You sign out in the settings, )the App Store and iTunes if necessary) and then sign in with the other ID.
Settings>iTunes & App Stores>Apple ID>Sign out. Them sign in with the other ID. You can sign out of the app store and iTunes as well by going to the featured Atab in the App Store and the music tab in iTunes, swipe to the bottom and access the Apple ID in there.
You should have erased the iOad before you gave it to her in Settings>General>Reset>Erase all content and settings. That way she could set up the iPad as new with her own Apple ID.
Be aware of the fact that if you use each others ID's in order to download past purchased content to your own iPads, you will lock yourself out of your own ID as you will have associated your iPad with the other person's Apple ID.
In other words, if you sign into your wife's ID on your iPad so that you can download an app or an album so that you don't have to pay for it again, you will lock yourself out of your Apple ID for 90 days. -
When my 6 year old daughter plays the free games that I have downloaded for her IPAD and IPOD, I am now getting upgrade charges on these free games to my AMEX Card. Why is this happening and how do I get my AMEX card off of the IPAD and IPOD?
She is making in app purchases. Probably not knowing what that means to your monthly credit card bill. Use the Settings app to enable restrictions and turn on restrictions for iTunes, App Store and in app purchases, mabe some others too. The restrictions will be set with a passcode to prevent your daughter from changing them.

I'm ticked off with Blackberry!
I had to buy a new phone in June less than a month before I was due an upgrade. Oh well, that isn't what I'm ticked off about. I decided to get a Blackberry 8360 because Blackberry was supposed to be the best. I've really liked it up until now. I decided to get the insurance just in case. Well, my rolling thing (I have no idea what the name of it is!) kept trying to come out starting around a month ago. I just kept pushing the silver ring back down. Yesterday, the entire thing came out. I don't use AT&T, but that was the only cellular store in my little town. I took it by there hoping they could put it back in for me. They were going to, but they said they the part would need to be replaced. They didn't have any in stock. They also said that everyone with that particular phone was having trouble with that part of the phone. I called my company today, Cellular South. They said I needed to file a claim with the insurance department. They said they would mail me a new phone, but I had to pay $150 to replace it. Why should I have to pay to replace it when it is Blackberry's responsiblity to fix it because it's a problem for everyone with that particular phone? I'm going to have to drive to a Cellular South store today and hope that they can replace it without having to pay $150 extra dollars for something that should have been recalled on all of these phones. Am I the only one that has had this problem?
Hi and welcome to the forums,
It happens from time to time, but not as frequently as to be a major issue.
You can search the forums using the grey search box to see that while it does
occur, it's not a design flaw.
It's pretty easy to replace on your own as well. Here is a video that shows how.
I have provided a link for a reputable vendor as well.

Really ticked off with BT wasting customer's time ...
It's the last bit of the post which I am even more ticked off about, today BT WASTED even more of my time for no reason.
Here's the background though, and the reason for asking (again) for my call back.
During last year our area (Pembroke Dock, Pembrokeshire) had had some significant problems and throughput was dire. This seems to have been put right during October and 6 Mb/s is now available to me (even though I am only about 500 yards from the exchange - still not what it should be is it, but it's acceptable.)
Whilst I was actually on the 'phone complaining of poor throughput during September (often less than 0.5 Mb/s) and asking when normal service could be restored I was actually disconnected from the BB service whilst there were engineers at the exchange. This had happened a few times and I expected reconnection within a few hours.
It didn't happen.
I was then told over the next three weeks the problem was mine (which I knew it wasn't), that it was my line, my equipment, my modem, my computer and anything else they could think up during many calls which lasted much longer than they should have.
I had been running diagnostics locally, had put on a brand new modem, changed the filter again (I have loads of new filters it saves dusting), used my laptop, brought in ALL my neighbours kit (including the hub) and excluded all of my equipment and faults potentially at "my end"
Still BT refused to take ownership of this problem and the disconnection problem continued until a level 2 called Devashish and his manager Abishek took ownership of the problem, listened and looked at the diagnostics and had the problem fixed within 10 minutes of calling. All credit and many thanks to them both, particularly Devashish.
I have logs of calls which total more than 20 hours talking to BT about this problem, diagnostics which were run over and over and over also taking many hours plus the time shifting kit from place to place in order to eliminate BT's accusations that the problems we at my end.
All completely unnecessary.
I subsequntly asked on four separate occasions for this matter to be addressed and each time I was told I would receive a call back - it hasn't happened.
Today, I contacted the complaints department on the live chat utility - I was on there for 45 minutes asking politely for the operator to contact the manager in question and get my call back. I did not want to go through the whole unnecessary saga again with a new BT person.
Here is the transcript with the operators name changed, her name is Melanie. I do not think I should embarrass her by putting in the full name. I have also changed my full name to reflect just Hilary the customer.
So - another 45 minutes+ of my life wasted on something this simple. Thank you BT (not)
Along with all the other customers with problems with BT that are not of their own making, I send a thumbs down and boo. It simply is not right, fair or ethical to do this to customers who have no other option but use BT.I thought I'd post an update here, as a month has gone past since my original post.
Sean and I have become pen-pals, fallen in love and eloped with the children and the dog.
(Well we haven't in fact, but we have exchanged 25 emails and for folk without any other agenda apart from getting a call back people could well talk about us lol. This is the internet, after all....... )
To be honest most of those mails are just half liners from me saying "still no call" with a time stamp from me and Sean trying his best to raise someone, anyone, to get this matter dealt with.
Sean kindly accessed my file, found the person in question for call number 5 and he sent an email to them.
I finally did get a call (asking all over again about the throughput problems and no connection issues in September until late-ish October) on the 22nd last month from "a manager" who wasn't the original one and she's called Esther. I am not sure but I think Sean sent several emails about this for me to get me this call back number 5, which should have happened on the 3rd Last month.
Just in case anyone is wondering what happened with call-backs 1, 2, 3 and 4 promised from November until the date of me using the chat thing on the 3rd January - it's anyone's guess.
To get one or two baddies is acceptable I suppose, but am I now on 5 and it still hasn't happened. Or is this now number 6? It's all too confusing :-)
All credit to Sean for trying though.
I wonder how many customers of BT broadband left in January. Can anyone get hold of the statistics?
Talk Talk and Sky are talking record numbers of joiners
BT are now advertising they don't "slow you down", but they do and they do it on purpose. I am receiving less maximum throughput/second now than I did in 2005. I used to get 8 mb/s all day and night and of course no limits then with AOL. My home hasn't moved any further from the exchange and now I have a stable service from BT since October, my max. throughput/sec doesn't get any better than 6.3 mb/s - I only went back to BT as a provider in January because of promises made to me about better throughput.
Me and the user group and the Thinkbroadband stats all know that 2012 wasn't exactly a record year for BT broadband stats locally. How many calls were made to BT for that year from the Pembroke exchange? Can anyone get hold of those stats?
I don't know what else to say except to thank Sean for all his efforts.
Will post an update when I know something, anything. -
Frustrated, irritated, disappointed and extremely ticked off 16 1/2 yr Verizon Wireless customer!!!
This is a long one, so you might want to get comfortable!
As stated in the "subject", we have been with Verizon for over 16 yrs. with NEVER a change to any other service...SOLID!!! We purchased 4 Samsung Fascinate phones at Christmas and LOVED them...until the latest update about a month ago. From that moment, it has been nothing short of hell!!! Dropped calls, no calls, voicemails on calls never received, failed receiving and sending of texts, email failures, internet malfunctions or no availability, phone locks up(happened before updates periodically, but not near as often)...the list goes on and on. Probably wouldn't have noticed the issues as much had we not had FOUR...but all four of us were having problems. After about a week or so, we went into a store and were told they didn't know anything about the issue with the phone(we had already put together the fact that it had something to do with the update!) and said they would "research" it and give us a call. The next morning we received the call stating that "yes" there were problems with the update and that we would need to come in and Verizon was offering 3 NEW phone choices as replacements. (NOT "LIKE NEW REFURB" phones...NEW PHONES) We went up to the store and picked the Charge...we are not "techy" folks, we thought it was the most like ours and then the sales persons tells us it is the best one to replace ours being a 4G and all and also stated she was surprised it was on the list as a "NEW" replacement...then the circles began. The salesperson went to order them and we were told they were out of stock and that the best thing for me to do was EVERYDAY dial *611 and ask if they were back in stock at the warehouse...not that she would continue to check, God forbid there be any customer care service...but for me to do it and she handed me a "Post it" sticky with the phone listed on it and *611...I guess in case I forgot the name and #...LOL
I called the next day and was told, "Oh, no, we can't help you here. You must go into the store directly." So, I explained what I had been told and was informed that the warehouse would sent out a message to let the stores know they must handle it in-house and not let the customer call the warehouse on this issue. I was then connected back to my local store, where apparently the call "rolled over" because it connected me back to the warehouse and that representative proceeded to tell me I had to call the store. I informed him that I had and it had come back to them AGAIN! He suggested I "try the store again", so I did. And, AGAIN, it rolled over to the warehouse...I was again connected back to the store where a "precious" sales associate informed me, "yeah, we're all out of them" and also when I explained that I kept calling the store but getting the warehouse, "yeah, when we are busy or something and don't answer, it rolls over there, sorry, you'll just have to keep trying"...!!! Then, last night while speaking with customer care Noah(who was AMAZING!!!), and after almost 2 weeks of being told that they were out of stock on the Charge phones(I'm still thinking NEW phones)...in fact, there were over 9000 in the warehouse and to let him get me connected with a technician to get these ordered out to me. I was then connected to Kevin. After going through my frustrations over the past couple weeks trying to get these phones, he informed that that I was again, misinformed and that they were in fact "out of stock" on these phones! LIVID at this point, I ask how in the world can 1 minute there be over 9000 and now NONE?!? That is when I am informed of the "like new refurbished" replacement. I can only say I lost my mind in that second!!!
I realize that we are mere shads in this ginormous pond called Verizon and my tiny $280 monthly bill is nothing in the grand scheme of what is Verizon. However, I have been a LOYAL, CONSTANT for over 16 years, spending THOUSANDS AND THOUSANDS of hard earned dollars with them and was happy to continue to do so until now. I also realize that there are 2 other phone options for us to choose from...but now it's the principle of the matter. It's one thing for me to buy a phone and after months of wear and tear, something go wrong with it and they send a "like new refurb" phone...I get that and we have used that service several times over the SIXTEEN YEARS+ we have been with Verizon Wireless. However, this is not that same issue...I bought a NEW phone and that NEW phone was working perfectly and we were all 4 completely happy with that NEW phone until an update was sent out that made the phones completely malfunction. I also realize that it was a Samsung update...but that is between Verizon and Samsung.
I think we've proven our loyalty over the last 16 1/2 yrs to Verizon...and do not feel it is unreasonable to think that they should send us NEW phones to replace this issue between them and Samsung. In the grand scheme of that, given our long history with Verizon...they stand to make another several thousands of dollars off of us, which, I'm pretty sure would offset the cost of these Charge phones. I know we are not the only ones having issues with this phone and feel everyone deserves the same courtesy with a new phone! I'm disappointed that Verizon's actions with me on this issue has me questioning my loyalty and looking at my options with other carriers...I think I've proven that I don't like change...I wish they would prove they don't like customer change and step up and send me 4 new phones!
Sincerely,
Frustrated, irritated, disappointed and extremely ticked off 16 1/2 yr Verizon Wireless customer!!!@ spottedcatfish
April/May 1995...you do the math sweetie...
I realize that Samsung designed the update, not Verizon...however, Verizon and Samsung have an agreement with the phones offered, therefore, Verizon accepts any updates Samsungs puts out...that has nothing to do with me, until my phone is completely jacked!
If you read my post in completion, you would see where I stated that we have had on several occasions used the "like new refurbished" phones offer on our phones. This is exactly what we are doing now, except it was never stated to us in THIS instance that it was "like new", we were told "NEW"...however, it is irrelevant as being "like new" when there are none in stock to replace ours with. That was one of my points! At this time, with them being out of stock and us battling with them for TWO WEEKS over getting FOUR phones replaced...I feel they should send new ones if that's all they have in the options offered to us. So your statement of them "doing us a favor" is a pile of cow dung...but thank you for the input...
And, again, yes we still have the Fascinate because, as stated in my post, when I call *611...they cannot help with this issue...it has to be handle in the store and they say the warehouse is "out of stock" and we should just keep calling back everyday...
Thank you for your amazing reply! -
Regarding Pages charts, when I try to 'build' a 3D chart all I get is little dots but not graphics. No problems with 2D charts though. Guess my question is "Help?"
Sorry for the delay getting back to this.
Thanks to Fruhulda and Peter for their comments regarding the refusal of Pages to let me make 3D charts.
In answer to the questions put to me in this regard :
1. Pages version : Pages '09 v.4.1 (923)
2. Mac O/S : v.10.6.8
3. 3D chart : Can't find a 'name', but upright bars with rounded corners ???
4. Moved apps : Not that I'm aware of! All should be as installed off the disc.
5. A note : I have been able to create these in the past - related to a SW update?
and ... can create these charts perfectly in Keynote (go figure).
Thanks to all.

Marian,
Let's be clear on one thing here. The manual setting is an iPod setting, not an iTunes one. So, once you've set it to manual (and you appear to have done that correctly), then you can connect it to any number of computers without changing that setting.
"The grey thing occurs on one pc only"
This is the thing that I don't understand, if your iPod is set to manual, then it shouldn't happen on any computer. If you connect the iPod that is set to manual to this pc, and then click on it in the source listing, then you would be looking at the songs on the iPod, and they should not be greyed out. When you connect to the "other pc" under these same circumstances, they are not greyed out?
Maybe you are looking for
