I am having start up problems with my touchsmart 300, the pc powers up but screen remains black

I tried disconnecting all cables including power cable and holding power button for 30 secs and then restarting but the problem persists. The fan starts up but the screen does not and the pc makes no beeps. Any advice on how to get it going?

Hello Ric66: What's is holding start button 30 sec stuff. Stop doing that does nothing but destroys computer. It is not a diesel truck. Just turn on computer press and hold f8 key. Now you are in save mode move your arrow keys select save mode with networking. Now open up HP Assisant click maintain then click on tune up and check mark everything and enabled microsoft defragmeter and run it. I had you open it in safe mode with networking in case you needed futher assistant. Perform this task it is not a bad Ideal to scan your computer for malware and viruses. Now llet tune complete close all open windows and restart computer. If for some unkown reason the computer does not start up normal. Then press F8 again safe mode this time you are going to perform a back date recovery open up recovery choose restore to earlier point of time. Yes there is a short waiting period between Windows 7 and logon screen with black screen it is normal. That your start up is corrupted and defragmeter will take care of it. That is why you should scheduled PC tune ups.

Having start up problems, keyboard light and loudness adjustment via keyboard does not work

Often if I start my MacBookPro 13" with Lion it starts up and is than blocked. I can not open the finder nor starting any programm. The turning wheel never stops and I have to restart the book by pressing the on/off button for a long time. Sometimes I need to do that several times till it runs stable.
During this week I experienced in addition that the keyboard light is not working anymore and also the loudspeaker adjustment does not work via keybaord. Only via menu bar.
Any idea what's going on with my book?

Read these two links from the Apple support files:

Good luck.

I am having a DNS problem with my computer. My laptop connects to the internet and my skype works normally but when i try to surf the web it says "DNS Look up failed".

MY PROBLEM
I am having a DNS problem with my laptop. It connects normally to th e wifi internet but when i try to surf the net it says "DNS Look up failed"
This problem only occurs when with the internet at my house. whenever i connect elsewhere my computer works normally. My ipod, iphone, tablet and other friends computers work normally when they are connected to my internet. i use dmy neigbours nework a couple of times from my house and it wrks normally.
Also when i turn my laptop on or off i can browse for a few minutes or seconds before it fails again. My skype works like there is no problem
WHAT I HAVE TRIED TO RESOLVE IT
I have tried changing the DNS, i used open DNS and google free DNS and it still didnt make a difference.
I have rebooted router many times, nothing
I have changed my home router, nothing
I backed up my computer, resored everything it to factory setting and put everything back on; still nothing
Run a diagnostics at 'Best buy' and they say nothing is wrong; but i know there is something wrong with the DNS
I have tried different "sudo" type of codes on my comupter from stuff i got online and nothign has proved fruitful yet.
i tried using safari, Google chrome and firefox, all not loading
WHAT DO I DO TO FIX THIS?

You are correct. Syncing should transfer any purchased media, including videos, from your device to your iTunes library provided your computer is authorized for the Apple ID used to make these purchases. You mentioned that you have uninstalled iTunes before, but if you didn't follow this guide exactly, uninstalling iTunes and all of its components in the order specified, it may not have been successful so you should try again: Windows XP or Windows Vista/7.

Music on iPhone4 4 automatically shuffles music and shuffle is not turned on in anyway. Anyone know how to fix this or is anyone having the same problem? This didn't start until the big update a month ago!!

Anyone know how to fix this or is anyone having the same problem? This didn't start until the big update (5.0) a month ago!!
When playing music there is no shuffle button like there was before... On the playlist there is a shuffle bar but this does nothing when I touch it. It's either stuck on my music is messed up.
Any ideas??

Start playing a song.
Select the album artwork area for the song playing to reveal the scrubber for the song.
Is the color of the icon located at the right of the scrubber blue?
If so, that is the shuffle icon and blue means shuffle is on. Select the icon to turn shuffle off. White means off.

New 6500 E709n loses wireless connection when it or laptop sleeps... & other problems!

Just got this printer and am hoping we can get it to work because we really like it. I believe we've done everything right - it is connected to PC via USB, and to laptop via wireless network. Both computers are Dells running XP. Our wireless router is a Linksys Wireless-G WRT54G. We installed the disk on both. Immediately after installing on the laptop by plugging in USB and then unplugging, we were able to get it to work. We printed and scanned from both . . . UNTIL the printer went into power save mode.
When it sleeps it loses all the network connections (but will still print from PC). Even the icons disappear from the laptop after it sleeps. The only way to get it to work with the laptop again is to start all over, plug in the laptop, enter the WPA key again, and so on. Then it's finebut for just a short while. Now, when I registered my protection plan, I was on the phone with a techie guy and asked him if it's normal to have to keep entering the key every time you want to print, and he actually said that maybe I shouldn't let the printer sleep - wow! I want to conserve energy, so I may even want to shut it off, okay, and I don't feel I should have to go through this rigamarole every time I want the darn thing to just be available to the network. Furthermore, what's the sense of having to turn "Wireless Radio" on and off all the time???
Anyway, there are other problems and the menus in the internal web browser is about as confusing as it can be. Is the passphrase the same as a WPA key? There's a passphrase in there which I did not enter, and I don't know what it is because it's been disguised with dots. When I enter the WPA key on the front panel of the printer, it doesn't stick. One thing I noticed in the instructions is to keep telephones away from it, so I moved ours (was right next to it) but it's still being ornery.
In addition, the scan function only works from the software, not as a standalone if I use the front panel. When using the button on the front panel, sometimes it sees the laptop, sometimes it doesn't, and then it starts to scan, but a menu pops up on the computer asking to update the buttons, and then nothing happens.
Have we a clunker on our hands that should be returned, or is there a remedy? All suggestions welcome!

Let me answer the easy stuff first:
Yes, the passphrase is the same as the WPA-PSK key.
No, it's not normal to have to re-enter the wireless security key over and over again. Politely tell our service agent that he is mistaken on this point.
There's no sense in having to turn the radio on and off all the time to get the printer to remain on the network.
When the printer goes into power-save mode, can you still access the printer's internal web page by browsing to it's IP address? When the printer loses wireless connectivity, can you wake the printer by pressing any of the buttons on the front panel?
I have a couple more questions:
What WRT54G HW version do you have (it'll be on the bottom label of the router)?
What version of FW does your router have? You'll have to browse to the router's internal web page to find out.
Finally, change the WPA-PSK group key renewal period to the largest value possible. Tell if this affects the frequency of printer losing Wi-Fi connectivity?
One more question. After you have the printer connected to your wireless network and it's working, if you turn the printer off (via the power button), wait five seconds then unplug it then plug it back in and turn it on, does it connect to your network?

My laptop ask for a start-up disk

my laptop stopped working having lines all over and I thought I close it and restart.
But now it ask for a start-up disk

Do you have restore discs that came with the computer or did it come with Lion pre-installed? If the former boot the computer from the installer disc to at least determine if the computer is OK. If it is, then the problem is with the drive.

MacBook Pro start-up problem - intermittend shutdowns

3...4 times a week my brand-new MacBook Pro 15" Core2Duo refuses to start. It shuts down immediately (after a short sound). Switching on a several times (3...8x) -or- removing the battery solves this problem temporarily.
I think this isn't the "Random Shutdown" problem due to heat sink issues, because "my problem" occurs mainly at a "cold" device. You can see the detailed video here:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u5H0SvvwxYw
Note: This happens sporadically and unfortunately the Apple Service provider was not able to reproduce the problem. So they will not change the logic card. My MacBook Pro is now on repair for more than 2 weeks.
They ordered a new battery for me. I realy hope this is the root cause and not a slack joint or anything else.
Does anybody of you have seen similar issues caused by battery?
MBP C2D 2.16GHz Mac OS X (10.4.8)

I am having a simular problem, my Macbook Pro will only work when it is plugged in, one day in my physics class I was taking notes and my laptop went into hybernation and it didn't ever come out of it. The battery says it is fully charged too. How can I contact apple about my warrenty or something in Canada?

Start up problems - only boots in safe mode

Hey community of amazing computer lovers, to preface my question... my setup is:
Macbook Pro, mid-2009 15in.
Processor 2.66 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo
Memory 4 GB 1067 MHz DDR3
Graphics NVIDIA GeForce 9600M GT 256 MB
Software OS X 10.9.1 (13B42)
Recently, after a move to Hawaii my laptop has begun having issues starting up normally. With ample power in the battery, and even when plugged into the wall via (a slightly damaged adapter), the macbook will do a number of abnormal responses to pushing the power button.
1. The indicator light (small white mini rectangle near front right of base) will blink once when power button is depressed. Nothing else happens. No boot up.
2. Holding power button down, indicator light will turn on, a boot up screen appears for a moment, then power cuts out and boot up ends.
3. (When holding the power button down) The indicator light will light up, then flicker and turn off.
4. (When holding shift for safe mode) System will boot up and has allowed me to work here in Safe mode.
I have restarted the machine while holding command+R, ran disk utility and repaired the disk. This action has not solved issue. Last night I left the computer in sleep mode after doing this, and woke up to a shut down machine with power left in the battery...
What is the issue at hand? Hardware?
How can I take steps to fix it myself?
Any help much appreciated,
Parker

1. This procedure is a diagnostic test. It changes nothing, for better or worse, and therefore will not, in itself, solve the problem.
2. If you don't already have a current backup, back up all data before doing anything else. The backup is necessary on general principle, not because of anything in the test procedure. There are ways to back up a computer that isn't fully functional. Ask if you need guidance.
3. Below are instructions to run a UNIX shell script, a type of program. All it does is to collect information about the state of the computer. That information goes nowhere unless you choose to share it. However, you should be cautious about running any kind of program (not just a shell script) at the request of a stranger on a public message board. If you have doubts, search this site for other discussions in which this procedure has been followed without any report of ill effects. If you can't satisfy yourself that the instructions are safe, don't follow them. Ask for other options.
Here's a summary of what you need to do, if you choose to proceed: Copy a line of text from this web page into the window of another application. Wait for the script to run. It usually takes a few minutes. Then paste the results, which will have been copied automatically, back into a reply on this page. The sequence is: copy, paste, wait, paste again. Details follow.
4. You may have started the computer in "safe" mode. Preferably, these steps should be taken in “normal” mode. If the system is now in safe mode and works well enough in normal mode to run the test, restart as usual. If you can only test in safe mode, do that.
5. If you have more than one user, and the one affected by the problem is not an administrator, then please run the test twice: once while logged in as the affected user, and once as an administrator. The results may be different. The user that is created automatically on a new computer when you start it for the first time is an administrator. If you can't log in as an administrator, test as the affected user. Most personal Macs have only one user, and in that case this section doesn’t apply. Don't log in as root.
6. The script is a single long line, all of which must be selected. You can accomplish this easily by triple-clicking anywhere in the line. The whole line will highlight, though you may not see all of it in the browser window, and you can then copy it. If you try to select the line by dragging across the part you can see, you won't get all of it.
Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it:

Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
7. Launch the built-in Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
Click anywhere in the Terminal window and paste (command-V). The text you pasted should vanish immediately. If it doesn't, press the return key.
8. If you see an error message in the Terminal window such as "syntax error," enter
exec bash
and press return. Then paste the script again.
9. If you're logged in as an administrator, you'll be prompted for your login password. Nothing will be displayed when you type it. You will not see the usual dots in place of typed characters. Make sure caps lock is off. Type carefully and then press return. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you make three failed attempts to enter the password, the test will run anyway, but it will produce less information. In most cases, the difference is not important. If you don't know the password, or if you prefer not to enter it, just press return three times at the password prompt.
If you're not logged in as an administrator, you won't be prompted for a password. The test will still run. It just won't do anything that requires administrator privileges.
10. The test may take a few minutes to run, depending on how many files you have and the speed of the computer. A computer that's abnormally slow may take longer to run the test. While it's running, there will be nothing in the Terminal window and no indication of progress. Wait for the line
[Process completed]
to appear. If you don't see it within half an hour or so, the test probably won't complete in a reasonable time. In that case, close the Terminal window and report the results. No harm will be done.
11. When the test is complete, quit Terminal. The results will have been copied to the Clipboard automatically. They are not shown in the Terminal window. Please don't copy anything from there. All you have to do is start a reply to this comment and then paste by pressing command-V again.
If any private information, such as your name or email address, appears in the results, anonymize it before posting. Usually that won't be necessary.
12. When you post the results, you might see the message, "You have included content in your post that is not permitted." It means that the forum software has misidentified something in the post as a violation of the rules. If that happens, please post the test results on Pastebin, then post a link here to the page you created.
Note: This is a public forum, and others may give you advice based on the results of the test. They speak only for themselves, and I don't necessarily agree with them.

Help please! start up problems plus crazy sounds!

hi!
i am in great and desperate need of help (i have a paper tomorrow and my powerbook goes crazy!) and i'd appreciate any replies. anyway, here's the problem:
last week i had a new cd-rom installed (the hardware) and had an additional memory added to my powerbook. anyway, last night, i was importing music from my cds to the laptop and then it starts having this crazy gurgling sound coming from the bottom left of my laptop, where the fan is (i believe). anyway, it stopped after a while.
however, this afternoon, i was importing music again when it just went crazy with the sounds and won't stop. everything then hanged, including my word and powerpoint document, my internet browser, everything. it wouldn't even respond to ctrl-option-esc. so i removed the battery. i made it rest and tried opening after an hour.
it won't start up. it just makes the crazy sound and goes to that all white page with the apple in the middle. it just stays in that mode, with the loading thingy going round and round, but nothing's happening. meanwhile, the laptop continues making crazy sounds and i can't access anything except that page.
if anyoen can help me, i'd really really appreciate it!
thanks!

well I would say it means that theres a problem with the CD rom or memory. I would remove the new hardwhere and see if that helps. Then if it does I would backup everything and then add the memory and see if it works then if it dose then add the CD rom if it doesn't work after that you know its a bad CD rom. If the memory makes it have a problem remove it and add the CD rom if it works then you know it was the memory. Then I would buy a program call techTool Deluxe or Pro that allows you to test your computers hardware Or another way thats alot less time consumming is just remove the new hardware hope this helps

I am having a strange problems on the Data entry Forms

A form that has been used since 2005 in an old version of HFM 3.51 was migrated to SYstem 11.1.2.1 in January of 2012 and has been working since then. Suddenly we start having some strange problems. Our response time has been very slow and I am wondering if there were some problems in any of the services. Maybe a service did not start properly related to the WEB forms.
We entered a number in one of the cell to be: 348336349 as soon as we hit enter, the number was formatted to 348,336,349 but when I submit the number it came back as 3. I tried it several times and it did not work, I checked the scaling and that was set blank. One of my user tried it and it did not work. I tried looking into the Preferences and my screen froze. In the meantime one of my user was able to enter the number and was able to refresh it as well. Then she enter another number on a different cell and the same problem occurred it seemed as if it truncated all the digits except for the left most digit, we are unable to figure out how to resolve this issue. The number entereed in the cell is 826,251,218 it stores 8 and loses the rest of the 8 digits. I right click and checlk the properties and it says that it has stored 8 instead of 826,251,218.
Following is the DEF script. Does anyone has any ideas, I am wondering if I have to restart the services..

Hi,
Did you find a way to solve your problem ? We have exactly the same for one application and we are using the same version of HFM : 11.1.2.1.
This problem is only about webforms. We can correctly input data through Data Grids or Client 32.
Thank you in advance for your answer.

I have Iphoto '09, version 8.1.2 (424). I am having an identical problem. All my pictures are imported into Iphoto when I downloaded them from my camera. Until recently, I thought that the pictures were actually saved in the library. Since I need to crop my pictures for the web, and Iphoto doesn't do that, I purchased Photoshop Elements to do that. To my surprise, when I try to get a picture from Iphoto to Photoshop, it can't be done. That was when I realized, after wasting a lot of time, that the photos are not in the Iphoto library.
I started naming the pictures on Iphoto so I had a recognizable file name to open on Photoshop. Couldn't find it. I looked in the Backup folder and the Transfer software folder (I have a Nikon camera), and the names I entered in the Iphoto display, could not be found.
When I am trying to upload a photo to the web, I get the Finder folder showing with an active folder called "Photos" under "Media", which only displays Iphoto and PhotoBooth. This is a folder name that I cannot find in my HD anywhere when I look for it. If I edit a picture with Photoshop, I am not going to save it back to Iphoto (not sure whether it will work properly). How do I get my folder of edited photos to show when I want to upload a picture to the web?
Where (the name of the folder) do I find the pictures I see displayed on the Iphoto library, including any name changes, keywords added, and so on?

See my response to your other post.
