HBA Red Light on 4G side; is tower down or is it antenna issue?

Our Home Fusion has worked well in the first few months, but recently has had multiple interruptions. Today it's down entirely, with the LTE side of the cantenna showing a solid red light even after multiple power off/on reboots. There is only one tower in our area that we could connect to, so I can't tell if it's a problem with the tower being down (had just a bit of rain/wind/etc last night) or if I have a cantenna problem. It's frustrating to not know what's up; even more so to not have a support phone number to call.

Hi absouth, I apologize for the delayed response as I want to make sure that you have been able to keep speeding down the information super highway with 4G LTE! Has the service been restored at this time? I would be more than happy to provide additional support if needed.
Thank You,

Turning on Red Lights on the HP-Envy 17 3D-3090nr Monitor

Hi,
I was hoping someone could explain how the stereoscopic 3D lights (i.e. the 2 red lights on either side of the webcam) that drive the active shutter glasses work?
I recently installed Elemenatry OS Linux (based on Ubuntu) and noticed the lights get turned off when it boots. Windows 7 on the other hand automatically turns them on during boot and they stay on even after a reboot. Everything else works perfectly well enough, the 3D is the last piece of the puzzel.
I have desktop with the exact same dual boot setup but as a 3D monitor I use the Sony PS3 3D Display which works in a similar way to the monitor on the Envy-17 3D. However, on the PS3 display there is a button that one can use to manually activate the lights.
I am wondering if there is a way to turn the lights on manually on the Envy-17 display rather than dynamically as it currently is?
Is there a driver that I can apply with ndiswrapper or something to manually turn the lights on?
It doesn't seem to be a graphic card driver related issue and experience with Windows on the desktop has shown me that the auto-dectection doesn't always work.
Thanks in advance

PoPlease help me, I tried everything.

Large outside Junction/Control box has flashing red light - bad or normal?

There is a Verizon outside box that is large with a flashing red light on its side. It appears to be a junction or control box mounted on the ground. It has been there for years and I do not remember seeing a flashing red light until now. Plus, my DSL connection has been dropping recently. Can a tech rep from Verizon High Speed Internet answer? Thank you for yur patience.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

These boxes are called Remote Terminals, and yes it is for DSL. The flashing light probably means that the battery backup has failed, so it shouldn't really affect your DSL unless your power goes out. And even then, the battery backup is only to power the voice line to make calls.
I would call 1-800-VERIZON and choose the option about "repair." I've had luck with getting poles replaced/repaired that way. Say that there's a flashing red light on the remote terminal, give the street address, and also give the central office you're out of (IE, your area code and first 3 digits of your phone number should tell the rep where you are). Also, stop by it and see if you can find any writing/markings on that, and tell them that too. Be as specific as possible. Make sure you get a ticket number from them, and make sure they have a call back number.
There was a tree laying on a wire near me, and I made sure I got a repair ticket; the next day a tech called me to say he was headed out that way and asked specific details about the location, what was wrong, etc. A few days later the tree was gone.

How do you get the red light to flash in the upper left hand side of the Iphone4S so I know when I have a email or txt?

How do your get the red flashing light to occur in the left corner of the iPhone 4S so I know when I have a email,txt or message left?

If you want to be reminded on unread mails or messages, you can set the alert to repeat. There's no flashing red light. http://iphone-and-i.blogspot.com/2012/01/how-to-customize-notification-center-in .html

No startup chime, red light, fans running loud...

yeah, I know that there are other threads with the same topic, but I just wanted to know how common this problem is?
How many people have experienced this?
What are the common disturbances?
What is going on?
Why is such an expensive, powerhouse computer become such a puny electronic product because of power issues?
I posted this in another thread but,
Here's my story:
I am having the same problem.
Now before you start taking advice to back up all your data, reformat your hard drive, and reinstall all the software; please take note of a few things:
first off, I'm ****** that this is happening to me. I spend $5000+ for a "reliable" Apple computer. Then it doesn't want to turn on because its not safe. Sorry if I drown this post with bitter sarcasm but I am coming to the end of the line with my patience.
I called Apple Care, read a bunch of posts (here and elsewhere), and yes I do know about the SMU Reset button (like that really does anything?).
My problem happened a few weeks ago and I thought nothing of it at first. There was a power outage for a quick second and it turned everything off. When I went to turn on my computer, there was no chime, the red light was on, and the fans were running and eventually began running very loud. After letting it run like that in hopes of the screen lighting up, I turned it off by holding the power button. By the way, there's nothing on the screen and the keyboard doesn't work (I use a wireless keyboard, but I plugged in the OG cord keyboard to push whatever series of buttons recommended by these "geniuses") Trust me, the computer doesn't make it to that part of the boot process, so stop with commandoption+PR or F12 to get the CD out. It doesn't work! What's up with this computer! It can handle all these intense calculations,etc. but a power surge is going to shut it down indefinitely.
So I left the computer came back the next day, turned it on and its fine. Cool, I'm happy. It's Working!! I go on a few weeks, then I go to turn it on this Monday, same problem. But actually a worse situation. I had a client come over and the computer wouldn't work. I looked like a idiot. Couldn't do anything cause my computer didn't want to turn on. I do music production/editing. I use my G5 for running ProTools LE. I have other programs but that is the main one I use. There's nothing wrong with it. It's optimized for use with the mac. So those people who are going to advise me to uninstall all my software and all that - I appreciate your concern but don't give advice when you don't know anything!
So I am getting frustrated. My client left a little disappointed, but what can you do? I tried to call AppleCare on Mon. but it was Memorial Day. So I waited for Tues.
Tues morning, my computer turns on like everything is fine.
I'm happy but cautious. I talk to AppleCare rep. He tells me that it is a common problem they have heard about with the G5's. Wherever blackouts, brownouts, spikes, sags, dips, and other electricity inconsistencies occur, the Power Mac G5 has a breaker in it which flips so it doesn't receive uneven power supply and damage internal components.
I like that feature. Good thinking Apple. Protecting my investment from bad electrical grids. But I don't like the fact my computer has a mind of its own where it decides when it wants to boot or when it wants to sit there and run its fans all loud.
I shut down Tues morn to go to work. I come back in the evening, it doesn't want to boot up. Instead of getting angry trying a bunch of times to turn on/turn off the computer, I leave my house all together and go and have a few drinks. I come home ,don't even look at my computer, and go to bed.
I wake up Wed. morning. Go to turn on my computer. Successful boot. It's running. Okay, I think, I'm going to get down to the problem. I read all the logs, not like I know every piece of info, but just to see what's happening. Everything looks fine. I decide to run the AppleCare CD Tech Tool. It says restart holding down C. I do that. When the gray Apple Logo comes up, all this writing about kernals comes up and it tells me to restart or shutdown. I shutdown and attempt to restart, same problem: no chime, red light on, and fans eventually spin loud. Now the CD is stuck in there. I'm going to take it to the Apple Store tomorrow to if these "geniuses" can figure it out.
(Just a side note: Apple calls them geniuses, but its hard for me to think some disconnected college kid with a bad haircut and questionable social skills knows what's up with the power supply issues of a computer; maybe I'm wrong, but you can run your diagnostics and look at the chart of what to do and all that BUT Apple needs to listen to the people)
I am going to get a UPS (uninteruptable power supply) with a clean sine wave output to curb the issue at my end. It's not my fault I live in a area that receives uneven power output. I live in Los Angeles. Summer is starting up and I think its going to be hot, so blackouts, power dips and sags are inevitable. I just don't understand why Apple hasn't considered this problem and fixed it with something:
A recall to change the power supply, Is it something on the logic board?, are they going to reimburse me for lost income (Ha, yeah right)
I really want to know how many people are having this problem?
From what I've heard, it is a common problem.
So I think we need a common solution.
If its so common, it must be the computer. We are all going to live in different areas where the power may vary. Not all of us have the consistent power flow of 1 Infinite Loop in Cupertino, CA. So if it is such a common problem, Apple needs to fix it.
I can't spend more than five grand on a super duper computer and have it wuss out on some power issues.
Its a loss of income and productivity to me.
I can't have that anymore.
Sometimes my computer turns on, sometimes it doesn't.
I bought my PowerMac G5 in April 2006, its been about a month and a half and I'm having these problems.
Thank you for your time.
If anyone else has been having this problem, I feel for you.
It was been very difficult for me not to curse in this post, but I have tried to extend the same respect to all that use these discussion boards to create dialogue, find help, and create solutions.
LETS FIX IT!

Well, you can see my specs below. I have the same problems as you, just worse. I am also running (as I have my previous systems) on an APC Smart-UPS 2200, and it doesn't solve this problem.
I bought my machine last December. In early March (just 2 days before my 90 days of phone support were up), I woke the computer from sleep to check email; about 5 minutes later it just froze. I had to force it down, but it never even got to the startup chime.
Called Apple, bought Apple Care on the spot, spent about 45 minutes on the phone with two levels of support, and Apple couldn't really diagnose the problem. They decided to send out a replacement logic board, processor unit and power supply for on-site service (I don't have an Apple service center nearby).
Nearly two weeks later the technician arrived with the parts, installed all of them, and - nothing. The system still exhibited the same symptoms as before the repair. He spent around five hours here, most of it on the phone with Apple. They decided that the processor unit they shipped was defective, so they sent another processor unit.
Nearly another two weeks later, the re-replacement processor unit arrived with the tech. He installed it, and everything worked. This was around April 1.
Fast forward to last Wednesday. Arrived home from work, tried to wake the Mac. Nothing happened. Had to force the machine off. Never booted again. Called Apple and went through the motions again. They're sending another logic board, processor unit, and power supply.
I asked about having the machine replaced since this will be the third repair attempt, considering it took two visits and nearly a month to repair it the first time it died. Apple was unwilling to replace it but I was told that if I had another failure, a replacement would be in the cards.
I agree with you about needing reliability in a computer as expensive as a Power Mac. It is not acceptable to have this kind of failure, repeatedly, with this kind of system. If my Windows PC has a hardware failure, I can take care of it myself. A top-end power supply is ~$200, a quality system board is ~$200-$300 - all very doable, and in very little time, if the need arises. A Power Mac logic board is ~$1K, a cpu module is well over $1K, who knows how much that crappy power supply costs, etc. If you have Apple Care, you face the kinds of downtime I'm having to deal with. A month without use of your computer. I mean, if I buy a Dell workstation, or an HP workstation, and pay an extra $200-$300 for service and something fails, Unisys will be here the next day and it will be fixed. That's the standard business class service experience you get from those companies with a computer that costs $600, much less the $3000+ you dish out for a Quad Power Mac. Apple's response is unacceptable.
It's a good thing I have kept my Windoze machine around, cause it's really saved my butt the last 2-3 months; that also makes me really sad, because in the last 6-7 years of Power Mac ownership I've had zero problems with any of them. My dad has my previous machine, a Rev A Dual 2.0 G5, and it's rock solid.
I sure hope that the Intel based Power Mac replacement doesn't suffer from what ever seems to afflict the recent Power Macs. I would absolutely hate to abandon OSX, but I will not put up with this kind of quality failure (hardware & service) again.

Boot Camp Windows 7 do not recognise wifi, ethernet, USB ports and has a scary red light in audio jack output!

Hi!
I have just tried to install Windows 7 x86 version on my MacBook Pro running Mountain Lion and a couple of strange things start appearing:
    1. On the Boot Camp Assistant first screen, I tried to download the drivers and after about 15min the system responding that the server did not responded.
    2. I went further and installed the Win7 without making the ISO as requested by the assistant and with no driver burned on a CD
    3. After installed the Win7 I noticed that it did not recognise the WIFI in my home nor any other in the area;
    4. There is a freaking RED LIGHT coming from my Audio jack output that I have never seen in my life... and that scares me!
    5. The USB ports does not works on Win7 side !
    6. The ethernet does not work, Win7 just don´t recognise it...
    7. There is no Boot Camp on Win7 side to be deployed...
Basically I will use Windows to run Quicken for Windows, but I can´t acces my backups on Dropbox because I do not have intercet access, and obviously I am not going to be able to back up new files.
Is there someone able to help me?
I have:Boot Camp 5.0.0 / Win7 Ultimate x86 / MacBook 2,5Ghz Intel Core i5 MID-2012 / Memories 4GB amd 500GB/ OS X 10.8.1 / Boot Camp partition with 50Gb for Windows.
I appreciate all help!

Did you make sure to install the Bootcamp utilities after installing Windows? They can be found in the boot disk/usb flash that Bootcamp creates (check for a folder called "Windows Support").These should enable sound/video/trackpad/etc.to work with full functionaliity under Windows (you may need to reboot after doing so). After installing them, you may also want to run Windows Update to make sure you get the latest drivers.
As far as the red light, many models of Macbook Pros are equipped with a digital Audio out. You can either use the standard analog 3.5mm Stereo jack (standard headphone connector), a 3.5mm miniSPDIF digital coax or miniTOSLINK digital optical cable (hence the red light). Windows may not know how to handle to audio out port until the proper drivers are installed and it may be enabling the digital signal by default. Installing the drivers mentioned above should set this back to normal operation.
hope this helps.

Internal speakers not shown in sound output, no audio jack red light

Hellooo!
So basically my internal speakers in my mid-2009 Macbook pro are not working. When i try and change the volume i am getting the greyed out speaker symbol. Strangely, when a pair of headphones are plugged into the audio port and set to 'audio input' the internal speakers show up in system prefs, and the sound start working! When the headphones are removed it reverts back to not working again. I'm not getting the red light in the audio port.
This must be a software problem as they physically work when headphones are plugged in and i can hear the chime on startup.
I have tried repairing disk permissions, resetting the PRAM/NVRAM, re-installing OSX and the whole toothpick in the audio port thing.
I dont really want to have to take it to apple but I dont have any options left. My mac is pretty old, so i dont feel it is worth spending loads of money on it should the motherboard need replacing or anything similarly costly.
Has anyone else had similar problems, or a solution?

One more suggestion.

Solid red light

My HP Envy HD always had a solid blue light on the tower panel. Last night, the tower panel had a solid red light & monitor said no signal, check video connection, so hubby changed HDMI cable. Still didn't work, but somehow he did get it to work & monito, computer functional. Problem, I still have a solid red line on tower panel. The tower light used to be solid blue - what happened to that? It's solid red consistently, whether I'm using computer or whether it's asleep. Called HP support and was told my computer is fine. They couldn't answer what happened to the blue light. I'm concerned. Red always is a warning, right? Help! Thanks for any advice.

You may need to perform a software repair using PC companion.The process will erase all internal memory.You might need to charge your device for about 1-2 hours before so the device has at least 60% battery.
Make sure the device is not connected to computer or laptop and turned off (sometimes you have to press power button and volume up until the device vibrates 3 times or on some devices you have to press the small button near the SIM tray or on the back of the device).
Open PC companion->support zone->phone/tablet software update->repair my phone/tablet blue highlighted.Follow the steps given,do not connect your phone until prompted to press volume down while plugging USB cable.
All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to us - J.R.R. Tolkien

Unreliable sound - speaker symbol greyed out and red light in 3.5mm jack

Had my MacBook for 3 years with no problems. But over the past few months, the sound has been very unreliable. It always works when external speakers are plugged in, but when using the internal speakers it's very temperamental. It will just suddenly grey out the speaker symbol on the menu bar at the top, and a red light is visible in the 3.5mm jack socket.
Any ideas???

Your Mac believes that a digital audio cable is plugged in. You can use a toothpick or unbent paper clip to toggle the DA switch off. It's located along the side of the port, not at the back whence the light emanates.

No sound and red light

I have no sound and when I turn the volume up there's "a circle with a line through it" there is a red light coming out of the earphone socket. I tried unplugging it and it worked but I want to use my headphones sometimes and when I take them back out it goes back to the red light. I tried changing the settings to internal speakers but when I went to "Choose a device for sound output" there was only "Digital Out". How do I select internal speakers when they're not there, how do I fix this problem?

So my internal speakers stopped working around 9-12 months ago, along with it the all-too-familiar red light in the headphone jack. Tried all the toothpick (actually recommended by an Apple tech), headphone in-and-out, paper-clippy, throw salt over-your-shoulder ideas posted out there; all to no avail. Nothing would get that switch inside to pop back from it's position, and let my computer know that there was nothing plugged into the jack. After all that and NEAR A YEAR of no internal speakers, they inexplicably started working again the other day. I think what happened was that I had neglected to notice that my headphones were plugged in still when I tried to put my laptop in the case, and slightly tweaked the headphone jack port when the headphone jack hit the side of the case. Whatever you do, don't let anyone convince you that it's a logic board or I/O board failure. It seems very likely an obnoxious flaw in the jack's design, and I'm not surprised many people can get it working again by poking around and getting the switch inside the jack to return to its position.
This computer has been a workhorse for me and OSX is a great design, but If I were to issue one complaint about Apple it would be to stand behind thier hardware better (I've had other problems before too). I feel like they could have issued a proper procedure to fix this problem so that everyone with issues like this doesn't have pull thier hair out searching forums for solutions and getting unnecessary expensive repairs.

Red Light in Audio Jack

I tried to turn up the volume for my internal speakers but it says it can't do it & a red light shines out from the audio jack. If I put external speakers in the audio jack, they will work just fine. Why won't my laptop speakers work?

Some device you plugged into the headphone jack was slightly out-of-spec dimensionally and jammed the jack in the "mute" position. Most people are able to "unstick" the connector by inserting a headphone plug and wiggling gently in the horizontal plane.
Apparently there is a dimensional standard for 1/8" stereo mini-pin plugs that is observed by some manufacturers better than others others. I have a dirt-cheap set of external speakers whose plug fits the jack on my MBP perfectly. Yet I also have a "name-brand" set of headphones whose plug is a little too long and can cause the problem you have if I run the plug in "to the hilt." When i use the headphones, I'm careful to insert them only until I get satisfactory stereo sound. The plug is secure at that point but the stop shoulder on the plug is not touching the side of the MBP at the port.

HELP! G5 not booting! red light turns on in the processor area

hi,
i have a dual 2.5ghz g5 and for a couple of days it's been acting weird. when i try to boot i hear the chime and before it finishes, it abruptly mutes and a red light goes on in the upper part of the processors area. I have seen through the side of the computer that the light is somewhere close to the processors. The computer does not continue booting, it just remains with the red light on and the fans working at normal speed.
At first it happened one time (yesterday) and then it worked normally. Now it won't work at all, even after letting it rest for a couple of hours.
Does anyone know what that light means? I hadn't seen it before. Could it be that the processor is running too hot? I live in a hot area and there's been a hot wave these days. It's reaching 87 F degrees inside but I believe that's within the correct operating temp. range.
Any help will be appreciated, and the fastest you can answer the better because i really need that computer!!
I hope it's nothing serious that require taking it to repair because I don't live near any repair service. Please help me!
thanks in advance!
dual 2.5 Ghz Power Mac G5 Mac OS X (10.4.8)

I don't think it is a heat related issue. I've got the same problem with a dual 2.7GHz G5 that's operating in a temperature controlled machine room. Or if it is a heat related issue, it's not an environmental temp problem, but some failing component.
I ran Hardware Test on it and it indicates that everything is fine with it, but as soon as it is rebooted, it does that half chime and then nothing. No status lights on the logic board either.
Once it's on, it seems to stay operating just fine. shrug

Sound isn't working on my MBP and there is no red light

Ok, so today my sound suddenly stopped working and i have no idea why. I looked for a red light in the headphone hole and i see nothing. I tried turning the sound up (not all the way) and nothing happened. I also tried doing it in settings...nada. When i try changing the sound there is no weird sign on the sceen either. I don't know what to do and i was hoping someone did.

Go step by step and test.
1. System Preference > Sound > Output > Internal Speakers
    Highlight Internal Speakers.

InfoCube - red light for db statistics

hi all... maybe someone can help me. in Cube administration at performance i get a red light when checking statistics. i try to calculate them, job finishes without problems, but light is still red.
when i check via rsrv db statistics for cube i get a red light and message "ORACLE: table ...not analyzed yet." we started br connect, but it didn't help.
SAP BASIS 700 0015
SAP_BW 700 0017
cube has 8 dimensions and 4 of them are line items.
thanx
gunter

Gunter,
Usually for Statistics there is an additional paremeter that has to be given on the Oracle side of things. This is with regard to permissions for the backend User / Oracle Admin User. Not sure which ID needs to have this - basically what happens is that :
1. Either the stats are being calculated but not getting updated because of some restrictions or
2. The stats job is fired against the Oracle system and because of Insufficient priviledges the Job Finishes but trigerring the necessary commands but then the command in actual does not get executed.
Run BRSTATS and see if the statistics light gets updated else use DB02 and analyze the table manually and see if the same gets refreshed.
Hope it helps...

Speakers not working have a red light

i can hear out of the head phones but the interal speaker will not work

If you're seeing the red light, that means your MacBook thinks there's a digital audio device attached. If replugging and unplugging your headphones don't reconfigure the switch, you can use a toothpick or--carefully--a paperclip to toggle the switch yourself. It's halfway in, on the 3:00 side.
