Is this normal temperatures after 1 minute of gaming?

Hi HP. I just want to know if this is normal temperatures after about 1 minute of gaming?

Hmmm that is odd.
I'll check my system for the speed of the GPU, but I believe it's ramping up.
Worst case is that the thermals are a bit off inside the system.
This could be a screw being a bit loose or missing altogether. (I'm sure the thermal grease is fine as that isn't done by hand. )
You can check this yourself, but the main problem is the rubber foot. Once it's off, it's not easy to get back on.

Why doesn't MBP return to its normal temperature after I turn off a heavy program?

Hello there, I've noticed that my new MacBook Pro runs at a very cool temperature while browsing websites and doing general activities. After I open up one of my work programs such as After Effects, Nuke, Maya, it will start up to heat up considerably on the left top corner, which is to my expectations. Now the problem here is that it does not cool down to its normal temperature after I have shut down all my work programs, the temperature remains as high as if the programs were still open and occupying CPU. Can someone help me with this problem before I take my MBP to a Apple Store for a fix?
Thanks lots!

You likely have a run away process from one of your third party programs that is not exiting or quitting, therefore hogging CPU cycles.
To determine this, reboot the machine, open your Activity Monitor and click "all processes" and sort by clicking on "CPU" this will make the processes taking the most cycles pop to the top.
now open your third party programs one at a time and get familiar with their processes, when you find the one process that appeared and taking huge CPU even after you've quit the program you have found your source.
Update this program or contact the developer for a explanation.
sometimes it will be a Apple process, which a OS X Overwrite should hopefully fix

First go to iPhoto Preferences, look in both General and Advanced tabs to make sure that things are set to import from camera into iPhoto.
Then if that doesn't help, connect the camera and open Image Capture in your Applications > Utilities folder and see if you can use Image Capture to reset the import path from the camera to iPhoto.

G5 going to pre-sleep after a few minutes - why? and is this normal?

Hello
My G5 will go to, what I'm calling pre-sleep, if I leave it alone for less than 5 minutes. Basically, when I come back it will take a few seconds to get going in motion again - saying if I stop a video or something in iMovie. Is this normal? I turned off the option for Energy Saver and turning the hard drive off when possible...but it still does it.
any suggestions?
thanks
Chris

Uncheck the "Put the hard drive to sleep when possible"
If this is what you did already, then check your processor performance settings, it should be Automatic as default.
You might have some sort of network or internet connection problem, disconnect physically, reboot and see if the problem continues.
Your hard drive could be near full, keep it below 50% ideal to 80% max.
Are you running any anti-malware or anything in the root level? Hacks or haxies? APE modules?
Have you backed up, c booted from Tiger install disk and Disk utility Erase w/zero and reinstalled Tiger fresh?
Did you do a Tiger over Panther upgrade? (not good)
Descibe what your "sleep" is in more detail, just a lag or?

I ordered the full creative cloud on sunday and received an order number but still can't open any of the programs. When i check the status of my order online, it says it can't find it. Is this normal after 3 days?

I ordered the full creative cloud on sunday and received an order number but still can't open any of the programs. When i check the status of my order online, it says it can't find it. Is this normal after 3 days? I tried asking in a chat window instead of the forum but no one answered and after about ten minutes my screen restarted and closed the chat window down. It seems a little frustrating not knowing what happened to my order and not being able to contact anyone. Is all this usual with Adobe or are they just having technical problems this week?

Upgraded from 10.6.8 to Mavericks last week on my MacBook Pro running the 2.4 GHz i5 and it's painfully slow on start-up- I mean, 5 minutes or more, to be fully functional... Is this normal?

Try these in order testing your system after each to see if it's back to normal:
1. a. Resetting your Mac's PRAM and NVRAM
    b. Intel-based Macs: Resetting the System Management Controller (SMC)
2. Restart the computer in Safe Mode, then restart again, normally. If this doesn't help, then:
     Boot to the Recovery HD: Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the
     COMMAND and R keys until the Utilities menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the
     computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager
     screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
3. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions: Upon startup select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions as follows.
When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the main menu. Select Restart from the Apple menu.
     Reinstall the 10.9.2 update: OS X Mavericks 10.9.2 Update (Combo).
4. Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion, Mavericks: Reboot from the Recovery HD. Select Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion, Mavericks from the Utilities menu, and click on the Continue button.
Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.
Reinstall the 10.9.2 update: OS X Mavericks 10.9.2 Update (Combo).

Ready to play in 14 minutes. Is this normal?

Im concerned about my dcownload speed. For example, to download a 45 minute hd show, my Atv says ready to play in 14 minutes. Than the estimated time drops throughout the download and ends up taking 4 minutes and 30 seconds. Is this normal? My download speed is between 4 and 5 mbs. I've already tried directly connecting to my router. Thanks you.

Thanks for answering! Why, then, am I able to start watching an hd show within a minute into the download on my Mac? It is an iMac intel core duo 2.0 with 2 gigs of memory. I'm thinking because it has better hardware than the apple tv?
If that's the case it sounds as though AppleTV2 should be able to do the same.
If we knew the size of a particular stream/download we could do a rough calculation of how long it should take for a given steady internet speed.
I can't rent TV Shows in iTunes or on AppleTV2 in UK, so can't really give you a guide except for movie performance.
With the same internet connection I'd expect the 2 to behave similarly (presumably computer or other user was not using internet bandwidth when you were using AppleTV directly?).
Apple's servers sometimes get bogged down, and some ISPs speeds really to vary significantly despite your headline connection speed - also worth checking your ISP doesn't slow/throttle your connection speeds at certain times or after a certain amount of content has downloaded.

New Ipad continues to draw down battery even after cover is closed. Is this normal?

Even though I close the cover and can hear the magnetic switch shut off the Ipad, it continues to draw down my battery, is this normal?
Screen does go blank

I've read different opinions (and personal stories) about whether the battery drains in sleep mode. All I know is that mine does not seem to drain. I was just noticing this last night. Before I went to bed my battery meter read 97%. I simply closed the smart cover to put it in sleep mode (I heard the click). When I opened the cover this morning it was still at 97%. I used it for about 15 minutes and only then did it drop to 96%. I did not turn off any wifi or location settings.
I should disclose that my battery meter was acting weird the other day. After a full charge, it was stuck on 100% during a few hours of light use (internet, email, kindle) before dropping again. Maybe my meter is just screwed up, but it seemed to be back to normal again and draining at a normal rate prior to my observation about it not draining at all during sleep mode.

The case of my 7 month old mbp has started to get very hot within minutes of switching it on. Is this normal and is there anything I can do?hing

The case of my 7 month old mpb has started to get very hot within 2 or 3 minutes of switching it on. Is this normal and is there anything I can do?

The heat generated by the system is directly related to the load put on the system and the speed of the fans.
The former (high CPU load) generates heat, the latter (fan speed) dissipates it.
If your machine is getting hot then either some process is consuming lots of CPU power, causing more heat to be generated, or your fans are not working properly to dissipate whatever heat is being generated.
So the first question is whether your fans speeds kick into high gear or not? if they don't then it could indicate a hardware problem, either with broken fans, or with broken temperature sensors that control the fan speed.
If the fans do come on but the system is still getting hot then I'd look for a software issue - some process that's running rampant. It should be easy to spot with something like /Applications/Utilities/Activity Monitor. There should be a lot of processes listed, but most should use just a few percentage points of CPU power. If any process is using a lot of CPU power then it warrants some investigation - what is that process? should it be running? Is it failing in some way. Post the results of your Activity Montor report and I'm sure someone can chime in.

I don't know if this is the right section but I experience the following issue with Adobe Acrobat Pro XI installed on Windows 8.1. When I start Acrobat the related window opens normally but, after some scroll up and down along the document, it blocks, Acrobat doesn't respond to any command I can give and, in place of the pointer arrow, a vertical bar, as the one of the text editor appears. The only way I can stop Acrobat is by means of the task manager. I tried to de-install and the re- install Acrobat but the behaviour is always the same. What can I do??

Have you opened Acrobat and gone to Help>Updates to get an updated install?

Launch the Terminal app in /Utilities/, run these two commands (copy & paste each one separately and hit the return key):
sudo chflags 0 /volumes/*
sudo chmod a+rx /volumes/*
at the Password: prompt, type in your admin password, carefully since nothing displays on the screen, and hit the return key. These should unlock your drives. You might have to restart.

Have just installed Mavericks and restarted the MacBook Pro. That was 3 hours ago and after logging in, I got my wallpaper and dock, but none of my desktop icons, just the spinning coloured wheel. It's been like that for 2 hours. Is this normal? What should I do, please?
I tried holding the on/off switch down to make it shut down, but when I turned it back on again, the same thing happened and none of the keys etc makes any difference.
HELP!!!! Please.

No, what you're experiencing is not normal.
Try booting whilst holding down the Shift key - this will allow you to boot into Safe Mode, disabling third-party kernel extensions, etc. Your Mac will be slow to boot and will operate sluggishly. That's normal. If you can get in using Safe Mode then you have some start-up item that doesn't play well with Mavericks.

After installing Lion on my Mac mini I no longer get a sound whe I plug in a usb device, and sometimes iTunes does not recognize my iPad. Is this normal (lack of usb recognition sound)?

After installing Lion on my mini, I no longer get a "recognition sound" when I plug in a usb device. Is this normal?

I am not sure any Mac every had a sound for plugging/unplugging USB devices.
You may be right. It's only on Windows that the sound is created and heard.
I know that since Tiger on this MBP, when I plug in my external scanner, I never heard anything.
And plugging in my Blu-Ray recorder also does not make any sounds.
I cannot speak for anything but my Mac laptops, however. Desktop Macs might make a sound.
