HP G50 209CA only a year old. Motherboard is fried.

I don't want to sound stupid, but is that normal? Has anyone else had a problem like that?!
The warranty expired on Feb 24th of this year and it crapped out mid April...of course.
Obviously I'm pretty upset. And pissed.

  • TS2634 My ipod touch will no longer play in both my docking stations, Bowers and Wilkins mini zeppellin and a Logitech, yet it plays in my car.  Is the ipod about to die?  Do I repair or buy another? It's only 2 years old!  thanks!

    My ipod touch will not play music in my Bowers and Wilkins mini zeppelin nor my Logitech.  Yet, it plays in my car.  The music can be heard playing in the ipod itself.  It is only 2 years old.  Should I repair or just buy another?  Thanks!

    Did it start not working after updating the iPOs on the iPod? SOmetimes updating an iOS breaks compatibility.
    You can try the standard fixes:
    - Reset. Nothing is lost
    Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Restore from backup
    - Restore to factory defaults/new iPod.

    Do you have OS x 10.8 Mountain Lion, any earlier OS such as Lion will NOT mirror.  It is not an update it is a purchase from the app store.
    Third party apps such as airparrot or reflectorapp can help too.

  • Why did my screen crack while charging? It hasn't been dropped, every time I charge it a new crack appears I'm tired of this it's only a year old!

    Why did my screen crack while charging? It hasn't been dropped, every time I charge it a new crack appears I'm tired of this it's only a year old! If its not covered under warranty never again will I go apple I've had nothing but issues so far.

    We can't answer that. Maybe the battery is bad and is swelling inside the phone. Maybe someone else dropped it and didn't tell you about it.
    Make an appointment at the genius bar and see what they say.
    If it's over a year old, then it's not covered under warranty.

    I have cannon mx870 it's not listed as an available printer for air print. Why it's only three years old and it has wi fi.

    Probably because it pre-dates Airprint technology.  The fact that it has wifi doesn't change anything if it isn't an Airprint-supported printer

  • I already have 590 battery cycles.80 % capacity. the MBP is only 1 year old. is this healthy? any tips?

    i already have 590 battery cycles. the MBP is only 1 year old. is this healthy? any tips? Im already at 80% capacity.

    battery cycles dont mean anything except in the old age of the battery
    short term abuse kills a battery, NOT battery cycles.
    General consideration of your MacBook battery
    Contrary to popular myths about notebook batteries, there is protection circuitry in your Macbook and therefore you cannot ‘overcharge’ your notebook when plugged in and already fully charged.
    However if you do not plan on using your notebook for several hours, turn it off (plugged in or otherwise), since you do not want your Macbook ‘both always plugged in and in sleep mode’.
    A lot of battery experts call the use of Lithium-Ion cells the "80% Rule", meaning use 80% of the full charge or so, then recharge them for longer overall life. The main quantified damage done in the use of Lithium Ion batteries are instances where the internal notebook battery is “often drained very low”, this is bad general use of your notebook battery.
    A person who has, for example, 300 charge cycles on their battery and is recharging at say 40% remaining of a 100% charge has a better battery condition state than, say, another person who has 300 charge cycles on their battery and is recharging at say 10-15% remaining on a 100% charge. DoD (depth of discharge) is much more important on the wear and tear on your Macbook’s battery than the count of charge cycles. There is no set “mile” or wear from a charge cycle in specific. Frequent high depth of discharge rates (draining the battery very low) on a Lithium battery will hasten the lowering of maximum battery capacity.
    All batteries in any device are a consumable meant to be replaced eventually after much time, even under perfect use conditions.
    If the massive amount of data that exists on lithium batteries were to be condensed into a simplex, helpful, and memorable bit of information it would be:
    1. While realistically a bit impractical during normal everyday use, a lithium battery's longevity and its chemistry's health is most happy swinging back and forth between 20% and 85% charge roughly.
    2. Do not purposefully drain your battery very low (10% and less), and do not keep them charged often or always high (100%).
    3. Lithium batteries do not like the following:
    A: Deep discharges, as meaning roughly 10% or less on a frequent basis.
    B: Rapid discharges as referring to energy intensive gaming on battery on a frequent basis (in which case while gaming, if possible, do same on power rather than battery). This is a minor consideration.
    C: Constant inflation, as meaning always or most often on charge, and certainly not both in sleep mode and on charge always or often.

  • My charger has stopped working, it is only a year old and has no frayed or exposed wires.

    My charger is about a year old and has been working perfectly until today. It has no frayed parts or any wires exposed on it. i plugged it in and it wasn't charging and my battery icon on my monitor had an x on the inside of it and wouldn't charge. I tried again to charge it after it finally died and it didn't work, I used my mom's charger and it worked perfectly fine, so it isn't the batter that is having a problem. Has my charger just spontaneously stopped working or it is a common flaw that occours often with other users, and if so is there a soloution to fix it or get a discount on a new charger for what I am going to assume is a design flaw in the box on the charger because that is the only other thing I can think of that would be causing my charger any problems?

    I had a lightbulb once. Brand new. Screwed it in its socket, lit it up. 20 minutes later it was dead. It's "brother" from the same twinpak is still shining bright almost 2 years later. Same thing here. The manufacturing process only guarantees that the mean time between failures is adequately long. But the individual units follow a probabilistic bell curve: sometimes you get one from one end and dies right off, most times you get one from the middle and lasts awhile, occasionally you get one from the other end and seems to last forever.
    If you have AppleCare, it will be replaced for free. Else you will have to pay the $79 we all have. Of the 8 Mac portables I've owned, in only one did the power brick die on me. Replaced it at my cost, watched the Mac die a month later.

  • Apple tells me that i no longer have warranty yet my computer is only 2 years old. One year warranty and i have applecare (which adds 2 years). will they fix their problems of having BLACK SCREENS OF DEATH. 2010 models affected should have been recalled.

    WHY?
    It literally makes no sense at all. Apple itself has always had my back. UNTIL NOW. when my problems arise. i am a full time student and when working on video editing projects or ANYTHING that uses a graphics card (youtube, diablo 3, quicktime player, EVEN IPHOTO) causes my computer to BLACK SCREEN.
    THIS IS AN ISSUE APPLE NEEDS TO RESOLVE, especially when they tell me i am not under warranty and have NO APPLE PRODUCTS REGISTERED? it is like they deleted it because last time i checked i had 3 ipods, an iphone4 and my macbook pro all registered. and when the store checked my account i have 0 apple products apparently.
    I REGISTERED MY IPHONE IN THE STORE STANDING NEXT TO THE GUY WHEN I BOUGHT IT.
    anyways. yes apple. nice going with a significant issue of screens cutting out for no F3948ing reason. 2010 models especially i have been reading about (which mine is) as well as laptops made before that.
    no recall?
    an update that doesn't work?
    denying my applecare's existence? (even when i brought the disk and all my applecare info?)
    buying a new laptop today NOT A MAC... because a WORKING computer is a necessity.
    I will still try to fix this mac as i have over 2,000$ invested in it. including parallels.
    IF ANYONE CAN ADRESS THIS ISSUE or figure out how it would be resolved, please let me know.
    Thanks.

    Do this.
    Go to the Apple Support page and type in your serial number. When the screen comes up showing that Serial number having Applecare extended warranty take a screen shot of it or Print it out to a PDF file and then Print a Hard Copy of either of those things. Take that with you when you take your Mac in to be looked at.
    Good Luck with the Lenovo. I hear they are the same quality as when IBM was making them. Personally I have always used Dell Business Class notebooks and have never had any problems with them. Still have one that is going on 11 years old and it still runs as good as the day I bought it, actually a little better because I've upgrade the CPU, GPU. RAM and HDD.

    Let it go... these DL's take forever, depending on the spped of your connection and the traffic on the servers.
    If by morning it is still sitting there restart and the DL should pick up from where it left off.

  • Menu botton stopped working and this nano is only a year old

    So what do I do? I've had this thing for a little over a year and the menu button does not respond to anything. The only way I can back out of my music is if I connect it to my computer. That gets pretty old. Anyone else having this issue? Should I assume that this is just not a good product and try a different MP3 player? HELP.

  • My iPod touch is only a year old, and it won't work properly.

    About a year ago I got a refurbished iPod touch. It worked fine for a while. Then one day the screen stopped turning sideways and I got used to that it was ok I could use the iPod for music without a sideways screen. But now it is just going crazy. I'll turn it on and be listening to music or watching Youtube videos for a little bit and it will do a combination or all of these things:
    -The screen with go white and it will take a really long time to restart itself and go back to the black screen with the apple on it.
    -I will randomly lose internet connection and I'll have to restart the iPod to get it back
    -The iPod will keep bringing up the sliding thing that asks me if I want to turn it off
    -The screen will turn black for a second and go back to the locked screen. It will keep flashing and when I press the home button it will take a screenshot of my locked screen. (The picture appears in the photos section of my iPod. I didn't even know iPod could take screenshots! I don't have any cameras or photo equiptment on my iPod.) My on/off button will stop working and the screen will keep flashing and turning off randomly until it either turns white or resets itself.
    -(This one happens every time) My speakers have stopped charging and working with my iPod. They worked fine before! I don't know if it's the iPod or the speakers:(
    All these happen randomly and have gotton worse over the days. I can still kind of use my iPod but it is definetly a struggle. As far as I know, it is not a problem with my battery. The battery works fine and charges normally but only when I connect it to my laptop.
    What do you think? Is it time to get a new iPod or can I fix it somehow? I know the newer iPods cost a lot so I would like to keep this one as long as possible because I like it and it wasn't a lot of money. I really hope I don't have to ask for a new one they cost a lot but as I read this over it sounds like fixing it may cost more then just buying a new one.......
    And by the way how long do the newer iPods typically last? If I'm going to get a new one I want to make sure it isn't crappy and won't die on me after one year.

    Typically they work OK until:
    - They break because of misuse like dropping
    - The battery dies
    Try:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Reset all settings      
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup. See:                                 
    iOS: How to back up           
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
    If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.
