Help with istat temperature reading on macbook please :)

Hey all.
I just dowloaded the IStat widget because i had read about it on the forum. I have noticed over the past day or so my temperature readings are consistantly in the 150's (farenheit) range. There was on point when it was in the 90's range. I am not familiar with how hot the computer should be running, but this seems awfully high. I always have my macbook on a desk or table of some sort with nothing blocking the fan. The fan is at 1799rpm right now. Sort of confused with what this all could mean. Is this or could this be a problem if the computer keeps running so hot?? This laptop is 2 months old. Thank you in advance!

My MacBook regularly gets that hot.

  • Help with a cd read only Error Please

    I am trying to copy a Turbotax PDF file to a CD-R cd. When I drag it over from the desk top or try to save it to the cd or do a save as PDF from Turbo tax I get the error that the CD is read only. I have already saved something on it. I have tried to go into the finder and change it to read-write but i can not do that even after unlocking it. Can anyone help me learn how to make the CD to a writable cd so I can save the PDF file ? thank you very much

    Hi, CDs once written to, will be Read only, even CD=RWs, unless you recorded as a Seesion.

    need help with my k7n2 delta series motherboard please

    "...the other memory ive been using is  memorymaxx 512mb ddr 3200..." If I understood right, your'e actually using both memories at same time so, your'e lucky if it works. We have said thousand times that mixing dif. brand/make/speed memories is a bad idea, most with this Mobo that is very picky about ram. If you want to avoid slowdown problems, stay with only one stick ( the better one ) until you can buy at same time in same store, 2 identical memories to replace the old one.

  • Help with opening Adobe Reader and downloading updates

    I can not open Adobe .pdf files any longer (this started yesterday, prior to that I could open adobe files).
    When I double click a .pdf file I get this notice on my screen: Windows cannot access the specified device path or file. You may not have the appropriate permission to access file.
    So I went to the Adobe download site to download a new copy of Adobe.  When I start the download I get this on the screen:  The instruction at "0x0e3a0068" referenced memory at "0x0e3a0068."  The memory could not be written.  Then two options are listed: click OK to terminate or cancel to debug.  So I click on cancel and I get this on my screen: Internet Explorer has closed this webpage to help protect your computer.   A malfunctioning or malicious addon has caused I.E. to close this webpage.
    I don't have AVG running, I do have avast but I've disabled it.  I ran Registry Mechanic and an I.E. erasure program but nothing helps.
    I have gone into I.E. and reduced the security level to its lowest state but no joy.
    So, any ideas or suggestions on what's the problem and how to overcome it would be appreciated.  Thanks, in advance, for your reply.  Jim R.

    Hi Mike..tried that as well but no joy.  A friend of mine was looking at it all and noticed that it was an I.E. thing as far as not letting me redownload the reader so I went to Mozilla Firefox and I could download a new version but....whenever I attempt to open a .pdf file I get that message, "Windows can not open the specified device, path or file. You man not have the appropriate permissions to access the item." 
    Damn...this is irritating as I need to get to some of thos files as I need them for a Journal I'm working on as editor-in-chief. 
    It all worked just fine last Saturday but starting Monday when I was on my flight out to D.C.  no joy. 
    Sigh...Jim R.

    I need help with getting my printer to print, Please.

    What have you done so far?
    I suggest you connect it via a usb  cable first.  Once you get the printer working, move to wifi.  You will have to use an existing printer usb cable or purchase a cable.  Be sure to get the correct cable.  Ask for help.
    The warrenty indicates there is phone support.  Give HP a call.

  • Help! external disk reader for macbook pro

    Hi guys, I really need some help.
    Ive got a 2008 MacBook Pro - V 10.5.8  MacBookPro4,1 using Leopard.
    The internal superdrive is completely ruined, It hasnt worked for a long time, though Ive not really needed to use it. However I deperately need to update my system version and have a copy of Snow Leopard on disk ready to go and get updated.
    Because my internal superdrive isnt working and I'm out of warranty, do you guys know of an external drive that will work for me? Im going out of my mind here after the guy in the Apple store pushed me into buying an external superdrive which doesnt even work with my MacBook!! (it'll only work with macbook Airs or newer macs without inbuilt superdrives)!!!!
    Please help if you can, Im happy to get a 3rd party drive aslong as it will read the update disk.
    Thanks in advance!

    Thanks So much for Aple produce 'Just working'. I cant believe the guy sold me a superdrive, he must of known it wasnt going to work.
    I guess Ive got to do another apples store run and thenn on to PC world!
    Thanks for your help.

  • Need help with loading Windows 7 onto Macbook Pro - Bootcamp and parallels

    Hi,
    I have a windows PC and changing over to a Mac. I purchased today Parallels and Microsoft Office for Mac in order to use them on the MacBook.
    Also please note - I need to use Bootcamp for some programs that I need to use - and then also be able to use parallels.
    Where I am up to at the moment is - since there is no disc drive on the laptop where I can insert the disc - I have gone onto my PC and downloaded the Windows 7  usb/dvd download tool setup - however I dont know where I find the ISO file for Windows 7? So if someone could help me with that.
    Alternatively - can someone please let me know if I can just pay and download Window 7 for Mac - and then run it through boot camp etc. If someone can please give me some advice on this - and also a handy step by step guide on how to achieve it.
    Thank you so much in advance for your help!!!! I really appreciate it!
    K

    Thanks Clinton  - When I went into Apple store today, I told him about the programs my husband needs to use for a CBUS course. The guy there said his room mate has done the same thing and cannot use parallels for the programs they need to run (it doesnt seem to work properly) so he is using boot camp to run them and it works fine. So I am wanting to run Boot camp first and then once the course is finished run everything through parallels. 
    So I have gone into Boot Camp - and because there is no Disc drive I cannot insert the disc - so I have gone back onto the PC to put windows onto a USB to then use with Bootcamp. I just cannot find the ISO file path for Windows.
    I hope this all makes sense!
    I am thinking I maybe i will buy the windows ISO file instead of trying to hunt it down on the PC. Do you think this is the best way to do it?

  • Previous PC user needs help with setting up iphone on Macbook

    I just started using the Macbook and will be using this as the primary computer. My iphone 3G was previously syncing to my previous HP PC. I tried plugging in my iPhone to the Macbook and it definitely reads it....but how do i get the Macbook set up so that it serves as "home base." I didn't see any of the applications that i previously had on the PC itunes iPhone page as on the itunes on the Mac. i thought this would happen automatically. I just need a method of being able to update the apps if need be. Or do i need to use the PC for that?
    guidance please.
    thanks

    Your itunes does not automatically show up on your new computer.
    You have to move it there. You can use your back up to do this or the Apple Store will do it for you, or you can call Apple support and they will help you do it.

  • Need Help With Appleworks Files on New Macbook

    Hey Everyone,
    I had an old iMac blueberry with OS 9.2 using appleworks. I just bought a MACBOOK and i got iWORK and MS OFFICE 2004 installed on it. How can i get my appleworks files to open up on my new MACBOOK.
    please help
    -

    will Appleworks transfer and run on an INTEL based
    MAC?
    AppleWorks 6 is a "package" that contains both a Classic (Mac OS 9) application and an OS X application. The rest of what's essential to AppleWorks 6's operation is included in the other items inside the AppleWorks 6 folder. AppleWorks will generate all needed items outside this folder when it is run.
    The OS X application will operate (and operate well) on the intel based Macs using Rosetta, which is included with these machines. AW 6.2.4 and AW 6.2.9 (IN Mac OS 9, the version numbers on the splash screen and in About AppleWorks for these two are 6.2.3 and 6.2.8) are the most stable and least error prone in OS X; update before or after the transfer if you have earlier versions.
    Remember also that your AppleWorks license allows for only one copy to be installed on a computer. If you want to continue to use AppleWorks on the G3 iMac, you'll need to purchase a retail copy to install on the MacBook.

    Barry

  • Help with Cambridge SoundWorks!!! PLEASE!

    Hey, guys, I need some help with configuring my 5.1 Soundworks Speaker System... I can't hear anything out of my rear and center speakers...CMSS is out of the question, as my Creative Audigy(LS?) is plugged in, but the Original CD installer says it's not... I have installed some kind of drivers(the original ones from the cd), but, still, my sound card is "invisible" to the Creative Installer...Please help,
    Best regards...

    Yes, my Audigy is plugged in correctly... I had these stereo speakers and they worked fine, but the problem was the same! My drivers won't install via the "Installer"... I have the original CD and all that crap, and still nothing! I only placed the Soundcard where it should be, but I don't know if I need any more wires...My speakers are plugged in like in Creative's Surround Demo etc... I'm now using Win2000[No Service Pack](i used, and I think I will revert to, Windows XP[SP])...What I want to know is: Can I use anything other than CMSS? Is there anything that could make an Audigy LS and a Cambridge Soundworks DTT2200 get along fine? Oh, and I have an Abit motherboard... The model is not important, as my speakers, soundcard, motherboard and a hell lot more come from a guy who sold them...And they worked fine on his PC! The biggest problem is with the drivers... I use the first PCI slot for the soundcard and it kinda works.....Please help if you have any idea...

  • Help with 'Send to Many" on 5210 please

    I am getting closer to the answer I need about sending a text message to as many people as possible from as inexpensive a phone as possible. Thanks to Jalisinfo for your help with my previous post. I have pasted below the response I have been sent from the Nokia care team to my question. Can anyone help with the part they were unable to answer about how many recipients I would be able to send to using this phone? I need to be able to send to about 70 contacts. All the recipients would be the only people in the contacts list.
    "Pertaining to our previous email, the Nokia 5210 does not support the SMS distribution list feature. On this device, you can send SMS to more than one contacts. This feature is known as "Send to many".
    We are unable to advise on the number of contacts you can send the SMS at one time."
    Thanks to you all for your help.

  • Help with the MIDI read function

    Since my last post, I have gotten NI LabVIEW 8.5 and DSP module 2.5.  Using the MIDI read function I was able to get it to read from MIDI-Yoke and plot onto some graphs.
    My problem, however, is that I'm not sure how exactly the MIDI file is being read.  The DSP module update files say that the information is sent as an array of 5 notes.  This is clear to see that it is reading in these 5 values.  When I plot wire the MIDI read to a graph however and/or output through a DSP board, It seems as though I am only getting one of those values.
    Can anyone tell me if I am doing anything wrong or how to get all the values from the MIDI read plotted and outputed.
    Thanks

    Attached is a screenshot of my front panel.
    Yes it seems as the array is being read in through the MIDI read (all 5 values are showing up).  On the graphs, I suppose it would be all five values plotted at once.  This makes sense to me, and what I initially thought.  What made me skeptical of the function was that when I outputted the signal, I didn't hear the same sound as was being inputed.  As I previously mentioned, I could only hear a really high pitched sound, that was the rythm of the particular MIDI file.  It wasn't the original sound.  (I was testing the output.  I would like to add synths, filters, etc. and be able to output this so that the changes can be heard, not just seen on graphs)
    Thanks for the help,
    Joeyio

  • Having a big problem with my 6 day old macbook, please help!

    My macbook was working fine, I haven't had much of a chance to install the hardware that came with it until tonight though. I was starting to install the first disk that came with my macbook, when I saw that it would take over 3 hours to install. SInce I need to go to bed early I decided to cancel and figured I could start tomorrow after work.
    Well, I turned my mac back on to see if it was still alright, and my mac hd is missing off the desktop, it doesn't even show the main toolbar/taskbar that's across the top of the screen unless I'm in safari. A message keeps coming up that says spotlight quit unexpectedly. I tried hitting all three options (ignore, report, and restart) different times and the window still keeps coming up.
    I put the disk back in my computer to see if I could just start to install it again but the computer isn't even recognizing that there is a disk in there.
    PLEASE HELP ME!! This is a brand new computer and I can't afford for it to break.

    I hope you invested in AppleCare. It extends your warranty for three years and also gives you three years of phone support. MacBooks come ready to use, as far as I know. The discs that come with it contain software, not "hardware" are provided in case of problems. Take your MacBook back to the Applestore and they will take care of the problem. If it is unfixable, they will replace your MacBook, but you only have fifteen days, after which, they will repair your MacBook, but not replace it (unless it is totally FUBAR) Your sales person should have explained all this to you. Good Luck, and welcome to Mac world.

  • Help with PDF in Reader please

    I hve Windows XP and Reader 9 and I  am trying to fill in a PDF form that according to the secutity settings shows that the fields allow filling but no signature.  I tried using tools but it says "only available when document rights are available".  I did the preferences-documents-PDF/A and set to NEVER but no change there either.  I'm new at this and not sure if I'm missing something or If I need to have Acrobat (which I can't afford).  This is not the first form I have tried to fill in with no luck, it's very frustrating.

    You can ignore security. It is just telling you that if there were fillable fields, you have permissions to fill them in.
    In this case, there are no fillable fields.
