T410 laptop turns off abruptly when running any application

Hi,
T410 laptop turns off abruptly when running any application. I contacted the technical support, first they suggested me to run some diagnostics for hard disk which failed and so they sent me a new hard disk. Even then I faced the same problem. Again I contacted them and they told that they will change the system board. Today I received the laptop with new system board/updated BIOS.
But still I am facing the same problem. I called the technical support again, they told me to use the latop in two modes ( 1. only battery and 2. only ac adapter) and check whether its happening again or ont. In both the cases I am seeing the same problem.
Laptop is only 5 months old and bought for $1400........

Hi and welcome to the forum!
Tell us something more about your system, like installed memory size, processor speed, graphics card make and size, HDD size and so forth. Because yours is CTO model hence it's not possible to figure out these things without your telling us about them.
I'm not very expert but I would say it's probably the RAM since system board and HDD have already been replaced or possibly you have got a lemon. But try following suggestions first.
Do you get any sort of error message or Bluescreen? does Event Viewer report something unusual? Event Viewer can be opened by typing it's name in the search field in Windows 7. If you get Bluecreen you can view it via this program:- http://www.nirsoft.net/utils/blue_screen_view.html and let us know what it says.
Also, make a bootable CD of mem86 and run the test on your RAM, mem86 can be downloaded free from:- http://www.memtest86.com/
Lastly, you can burn LiveCD of any Linux distro and boot from it, if applications work fine in Linux environment then probably it's some software problem your thinkpad is having, re-imaging the system to factory state would be great initiative in that case.
Keep us posted!

Do i need to turn off keyboard when logging off

Do I need to turn off keyboard every time I log off the IMac?

If you shut down the iMac and the keyboard is a wireless keyboard turning it off will preserve battery life. The same goes for a wireless mouse.

I need to turn off firefox to download something.

I am downloading the coupon printer and it is telling me to turn off the firefox firewall and I have no idea how to do it.

Firefox does not have a Firewall. I would reconsider installing this software. Most "coupon printers" are nothing more than thinly disguised viruses, and especially if it is asking you to turn off your Firewall or security. Immediately stop installation, and follow the below steps to ensure your computer is secure:
* [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues caused by malware]]
* Download the latest version of Firefox from www.getfirefox.com and install it
* Delete anything related to the coupon printer program

I need help turning off the "find phone" on my 4G iPhone, but don't have the phone to get the serial number

I am looking for direction on how to turn "OFF" find my phone. I do not have the phone or serial number.

Remove it from your account by signing in to icloud.com/find,
selecting the device, and clicking Erase. When the device has been
erased, click Remove from Account.
You do not need the serial number to do this, but you may
be able to find the serial number here:
iOS: How to find the serial number, IMEI, MEID, CDN, and ICCID number
Scroll down to the section on getting information from your computer.

To sync WIRED, need to turn off WIRELESS feature on BB. HOW?

The Desktop Mgr says to turn off the WIRELESS feature on my Curve 8310 in order to sync with my home laptop. On the BB, where is this nonwireless/wireless feature? I'm trying to sync thru the USB port with a cable. Previously this Curve was synched wirelessly to an employer's computer at a job I no longer have.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Well you can do one of 2 things:
Go into the database (Calendar, Address Book, etc), hit the menu button, choose Options. From there you can turn the Wireless Synchronization Off. You can leave the settings to Off for each database that you want to synchronize with.
You can follow these steps to remove the IT policy from your phone. This will remove any polices that may still be in effect on your device when it was connected to your company's BES. Doing so will take those wireless synchronization lines off of your phone. http://www.blackberryfaq.com/index.php/Remove_IT_Policy

Can't watch videos it says I need to download Adobe, when I attempt it says I may need to turn off my antivirus. How can I do this?

For the last few days I have not been allowed to watch anything that may have a video. It says I need an update version of Adobe and that I may need to turn off my antivirus. Not sure how to do this.

Download the latest adobe flash player plugin only from the adobe download site. When you install it it installs its plugin and a Flash Player system preference. That Flash Player system preference has an option (Advanced tab) to auto check for updates. If enabled it will put up a dialog telling you a new update is available when adobe relaases it. I never have that enabled so I don't know how the dialog is worded and that it actually says anything about turning off any AV stuff.
Do you even have any AV software running?
You can always just download it again and reinstall to make sure you have the latest version.

Is there a need to turn off my Apple TV when I'm using it? If so, how do I turn it off?

Is there a need to turn off my Apple TV when I'm not using it? If so, how do I turn it off?

Kappy,
I know you said that my Apple TV shuts itself off after about an hours idle time but mine only shuts itself off radomly maybe one every two days even when the TV has been off and the iMack has been off over night. My wife and I both have iPhones and she has an iPad which may be causing the Apple to stay on. Don't know. Incidentally, my Apple TV shows my iMack iPhoto pictures and albums great. Still a little concerned that it doesn't shut off after some idle time.

I cannot use ITV player, it says I need to turn off ad blocking - how do I do this? It only began after latest update of Firefox installed.

I have tried to watch programmes on ITV player, which I have successfully done in the past, but now it tells me it cannot find the video and that I need to turn off ad blocking on my computer. I went into options, but could not find anything about ad blocking. I added www.itv.com to the exceptions list for pop up windows, but this has not helped. The problem only began after the latest update of Firefox was installed. I have never had any problem before. How can I get ITV player back, please.

I am returning to using firefox 4.?.....I will need to turn off the automatic software update so that it does not update back up to firefox 7 again.

Hi, I am back again with my tweaked brain. LOL I am trying to go back to Firefox 4, which I had so much less trouble with and liked a whole lot more. I am told that after installing the older version I need to turn off the automatic Firefox software update (if enabled)........I don't know where the automatic software update is located. Can you help me? Thank you for your help.......I will check back in a little while.......GOD bless you and all that you do for others.........loving you in Christ.......<3

You can try to clear the cache and cookies to see if that makes a difference:
<h3>Clearing Cache</h3>
#Go to Firefox > History > Clear recent history or (if no Firefox button is shown) go to Tools > Clear recent history.
#Under "Time range to clear", select "Everything".
#Now, click the arrow next to Details to toggle the Details list active.
#From the details list, check ''Cache'' and uncheck everything else.
#Now click the ''Clear now'' button.
<h3>Clearing Cookies</h3>
#Go to Firefox > Tools > Privacy > Remove Individual Cookies
#Find the site (ebay.com) that's having problems and clear all cookies.
#Restart Firefox

TS1368 when downloading large files such as videos of television season do you need to turn off autolock to prevent download from halting

when downloading large files such as videos of a television season do you need to turn off autolock to prevent download from halting? And if so, if the download will take a significant amount of time (not sure how much offhand) how do you prevent burn in from prolonged screen image?

Among the alternatives not mentioned... Using a TiVo DVR, rather than the X1; a Roamio Plus or Pro would solve both the concern over the quality of the DVR, as well as providing the MoCA bridge capability the poster so desperately wanted the X1 DVR to provide. (Although the TiVo's support only MoCA 1.1.) Just get a third-party MoCA adapter for the distant location. Why the hang-up on having a device provided by Comcast? This seems especially ironic given the opinions expressed regarding payments over time to Comcast. If a MoCA 2.0 bridge was the requirement, they don't exist outside providers. So couldn't the poster have simply requested a replacement XB3 from the local office and configured it down to only providing MoCA bridging -- and perhaps as a wireless access point? Comcast would bill him the monthly rate for the extra device, but such is the state of MoCA 2.0. Much of the OP sounds like frustration over devices providing capabilities the poster *thinks* they should have.

How do I turn off Firefox checking for updates (I am fed up with Firefox continually asking to update when I don't want to due to previous bad experiences)

I would like to turn off firefox checking for updates
I don't want to update due to previous bad experiences with updates (version 4 and version 5)
I am frustrated by being reminded on a daily basis to update when I don't want to

Use
*'''Firefox button -> Options -> |Advanced | -> |Update|''' and uncheck the update option, or opt to ask first.
* see [[Options window - Advanced panel#w_update-tab]]_update-tab
* and to downgrade
**[[installing a previous version of Firefox]]
** and the download itself [http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html]
Also note that currently
* firefox 3.6 is still supported, and has had recent security updates
* plans are to continue supporting it despite any comment on the download page
**(not sure how long for but see https://wiki.mozilla.org/Firefox/Planning/2011-09-07#Questions.2C_Comments.2C_FYI ) confirming continuing support for Firefox 3.6
* Firefox 3.6 has updated with security fixes, so is I think now 3.6.22 ; but it is NOT currently trying to upgrade its users to the current firefox release (Firefox 6)

How to turn off alarms when iCal is not running

iCal-Version 4.0.4 (1395)
Imagine giving a lecture supported by powerpoint in front of an audience, all applications turned off except of powerpoint, and suddenly popping up the iCal alarm message "meet her (xy) in the pub". How can I turn off alarms when iCal is NOT running?
cheers
knatterton

Hey! I was DJ'ing and an iCal alarm went off even though I'd selected to have alarms not go off when iCal is not running. Now that option isn't there anymore! Can I revert to the previous version of iCal? I don;t see any other new features that are worth not having interruptions during DJ'ing and presentations! I know that if I turn off all alarms, I will forget. I'd create an alarm to remind me to turn it back on, but... This is REALLY annoying.
