HD521-1W and HD521-2W errors, how worried should I be when I see these?

Touchsmart IQ515UK, error message HD521-1W and HD521-2W  when running the HP dianogstic software and a message on boot up that hard-drive failure is imminent (can't tell if that is malware or not). I've already hard a hard drive failaure when under warranty which was replaced and can't believe it's happening again.

Those codes are generated by the diagnostic program and indicate the hard drive needs to be replace.  The imminent failure message is generated by the SMART diagnostics that are built into the hard drive firmware and also indicates the hard drive is failing.  If you can still access the hard drive you will need to back up your data.  Sorry to be the bearer of bad news.
I am an employee of HP

    Hi
    You may need to run Logic in 32bit mode to get the AudioUnit Manager to scan the new plugins?

  • I just updated to iOS 8 on my iPad 2 and got an error then factory reset! Now I cannot see my Purchased Apps

    I just updated to iOS 8 on my iPad 2 and due to a unforeseen error on iTunes I had to do factory reset. I was using my friend's iMac iTunes to download and update, instead of OTA. Now I'm unable to see my previously purchased apps (some even discontinued that I was hanging on to as they still kind of worked)... Even after I logged into App store on my iPad (tried restoring iCloud and iTunes but no luck, somehow there isn't any backup)! I checked my App Store updates/purchases and see nothing. A forum suggested I try buying it anyway and it will say I already have it and not double charge, but I don't want to take that chance as most of these apps are over $4. I have receipts for all my purchases. Please help!

    When you do an update via a computer's iTunes the update process will backup the device (a backup doesn't contain the actual apps, just their content/settings), wipe the device, install the update, and then restore the backup - the restore would look to pick up your apps, music, films etc from the iTunes library.
    You've tried logging out (tap on your id at the bottom of the Featured tab in the App Store app) and back in and seeing if they then show in the Purchased tab, and you could also check to see if the apps are hidden from Purchased : iTunes Store: Hiding and unhiding purchases.
    If an app is no longer in the store then you won't be able to redownload it. You haven't got copies of your apps in your own computer's iTunes library and/or on your backup of your downloads/library ?

  • Mavericks is installed and runs well, but how long should I keep the small windows "Optimizing Your Mac" ? It has been now one month!!!

    Small window "Optimizing your Mac" (see below) has been on my Desktop for over a month now.
    How long should I keep it (... without "impacting the performance or the battery life")?

    Closing it when it first appeared wouldn't have stopped the 'optimization' so you could have closed it any time and can do so now - in any case optimization will have long since completed.

  • Installing Nano and iTunes with dialup - how long should it take?

    I got a nano for Christmas and am just now trying to use it. When I try to download iTunes it says that it will take upwards of 5 hours! I have dialup, living in a rural area, so I know it'll take longer, but can this be right? Also, when I download iTunes, what will happen to the music I have in Windows Media Player? Sorry, but I ma very new to iTunes & Nano!

    It depends on a number of things?
    1 - the amount of RAM installed.
    2 - amount of free space on the boot drive. It's strongly recommended to have a minimum of 20-25 GB free space.
    3 - the total playing time of the DVD.
    4 - the encoding process selected.  Professional Quality is a 2 pass process so will take more time than any of the other options.
    5 - CPU speed of your Mac.
    6 - if you're using a SL or DL disk.
    Follow this workflow to help assure the best qualty video DVD:
    Once you have the project as you want it save it as a disk image via the File ➙ Save as Disk Image  menu option. This will separate the encoding process from the burn process.
    To check the encoding mount the disk image, launch DVD Player and play it.  If it plays OK with DVD Player the encoding is good.
    Then burn to disk with Disk Utility or Toast at the slowest speed available (2x-4x) to assure the best burn quality.  Always use top quality media:  Verbatim, Maxell or Taiyo Yuden DVD-R are the most recommended in these forums.

  • GT780DX how hot should it run when playing games?

    my exact model is:
    MSI GT780DXR-429NE - i7-2670QM 2.2GHz/ 8GB / 1.5TB / GTX 570M / 17.3" / BT / Blu-Ray / Win 7 HP
    ..so my question, how hot should the computer run while playing games?
    when I play arkham city it tops at about 72C (161F) holds around 70C
    and when I play minecraft on it it gets to 72C (161F) as well
    the fan can get really loud, feels like it only has two gears, slow and super fast.
    is this normal?

    I use one of these... http://www.awd-it.co.uk/cooler-master-notepal-u3-cooling-pad-for-notebooks-black.html
    My laptop used to shutdown due to over heating - you could fry an egg on the bottom of it.
    Since I got the cooling pad, my laptop is almost icy cold.  Really.
    For the price, they are very cheap.  When I opened the box I was a little disappointed because I thought it was made of thin cheap metal, but it does stand up to the use.
    haha cool, exactly one of those that I bought today also
    I think it's working pretty nice, though where is the most optimal place to place your fans ?

  • What should I do when I see this error message: iPhone cannot be synced required disk cannot be found?

    What should I do when I try to sync my iPhone 4s with a MacBook and get the error message: "iPhone cannot be synced...required disk cannot be found?"

    Close "iPhoto" if it is open. Open the "Pictures" folder and right-click on "iPhoto Library." Select "Show Package Contents." Right-click the "iPod Photo Cache" folder, select "Move to Trash" and sync your iPhone. The error message should no longer appear.
    if that doesn't work,
    uninstall itunes and download the lastest version

  • HT1807 I travelled to a different country & using a new sim; with the change in sim, I have been unable to use iMessage & FaceTime. Cant replace replace the earlier no with the current one and it reads error. how to correct this?

    I traveled to a different country and using a new sim/new carrier. With the change in the sim, I have been unable to use the iMessage--outside of WiFi coverage area, and FaceTime at all time. I believe it is due to the phone number registered as an address in the phone, which has not changed with the change of sim; so it countinues to showing as an error while varifying the data.
    Wonder if any of you are in a position to advise as to how to address the following.
    1. I need to input correct phone no, meaning the number I am using in the correct location.
    2. I need to activate FaceTime and be able to use it.
    3. I need to be able to use iMessage and/or ordinary sms while outside of WiFi coverage area.
    It may be mentioned in my current location I don't have GPRS on the cell phone which is the case in my regular station.
    Thanks for your help.

    I have multiple Apple IDs. Is there a way for me to merge them into a single Apple ID?
    Apple IDs cannot be merged. You should use your preferred Apple ID from now on, but you can still access your purchased items such as music, movies, or software using your other Apple IDs.

  • I just bought a NEW Pro... and there's a "Reminder" already in the Reminder app. How worried should I be?

    I bought a new 13" MacBook Pro less than a week ago. Today, I opened the "Reminders" app and in the completed section was a reminder dated January 23rd, 2012 (today is June 14th, 2013!) and it says, "Be a *****". According to this site, http://www.chipmunk.nl/klantenservice/applemodel.html, the computer was manufactured in May 2013, so the date is probably made up. Should I be worried about whomever was messing with my computer? Worried if maybe they put a keystroke logger on it or something? Should I call Apple? I expected a new computer, not a used one. Thanks.

    EDIT: I mean that the January 23rd, 2012 date was made up, not the manufacture date.

  • How long should it take when upgrading OS 10.6.4 to 10.6.5? It's been ****

    How long has the update taken for you?
    It has been about 7 hours so far. The window shows:
    Software Update - Installing 5 items - running package scripts...
    The progress bar is moving but it has not moved beyond about the 99% mark ... for about 5 hours now.
    MACBOOK early 2008 black 2.4 GHz Core 2 Duo (Penryn), 4GB RAM, 120GB HD

    I don't think I've ever been so frustrated with a computer than this project of reviving the MACBOOK (early 2008). But, I persevered and after 17 hours it finally finished and allowed me to register it.
    So far so good. iWork and iLife are up and running. Repaired all the physical damage except for the optical drive - going to replace it with a second HD.
    Now, maybe I can get some work done. Yipee!

  • How::Approvers should receive email when a document is uploaded to KMfolder

    Hi All,
    We are on EP SP9 KM SP9.
    I have configured a normal workflow on a folder <b>/document/test</b> in KM Content.
    It has 2 steps with 1 approver in each step. The approvers are <b>approver1</b> and <b>approver2</b>.
    <b>I want an email to get triggered to the approvers of the workflow configured on this folder as soon as a user (say user1) uploads a document into this folder.</b>
    In the <b>Details > Settings > Permissions</b> of the <b>"test"</b> folder, I have given <b>READ</b> permissions to both the approvers (approver1 and approver2).
    I have configured the Host to "my Exchange server" in System config > KM > workflow > Mail.
    What else am i missing???
    Any idea? Please help me.
    Thanks in advance.

    This is not possible by standard means (and in my eyes: it's also not senseful). The implemented standard is that only the "actual" approvers are informed by mail, that is approver1 after uploading the document <b>&&</b> submitting in for approval, and approver2 is informed after approver1 has approved the document.
    There are different discussions in the forum how to automatically submit a new document for approval (via a repository service).
    For setting up rights <b>&&</b> service rights(!) see http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/04/9053ad76fd0948b4ec2abf97898a3e/frameset.htm and the link given there.

    I think you will have to start at Global Services / Notificator Service; there probably the EMAIL-Channel will have been set. Check this and update settings there.
    Hope it helps
