Macbook turns off. Date & time, passwords...

So, today I unplugged my Macbook for the first time in about a week and the battery drained to about 60% and my Macbook shut off. I tried to turn it back on but it didn't work until I got it back onto the charger. When I turned it on, it started up fine but it told me that the date and time was reset to a time before 2008 and it had forgotten my internet password.
I bought the Macbook in January of 2010, so it's faily new.
HALP?!

Sorry! I'm new at this. >_<

My macbook turns off randomly but not completely because when I tap the touchpad it goes to the password screen and I am back to it in seconds. It's really annoying. HELP!!!

1. Non volatile random access memory (NVRAM) is where the computer stores user's settings, like time and date, speaker volume, energy saver settings etc.
2. Reseting NVRAM has no impact on anything on your hard drive, or anything else on the computer.

Hello KCC4ME,
You may try booting your Mac in Safe Boot, as it can resolve many issues that may prevent a successful login.
OS X: What is Safe Boot, Safe Mode?

If a Safe Boot allows you to successfully log in, you may have issues with one or more login itmes (while the following article is labelled as a Mavericks article, it is viable for earlier versions of the Mac OS, as well).

Allow active content to run files on my computer - turns off each time system is rebooted.

I seem to have an issue with setting the allow active content to run files on my computer in internet explorer. Each time I turn it on reboot the computer the setting is turned off.
This computer is on a domain, but there are no domain policies for internet explorer.
Any idea's why this is turning off each time I reboot?
Thanks

Hi John,
Based on your description, we can try to set the following registry key to see if it helps:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main\FeatureControl\FEATURE_LOCALMACHINE_LOCKDOWN
Value Name:
iexplore.exe
Value Type:
REG_DWORD
Value Data:
0
Regarding this point, the following article can be referred to for more information.

My MacBook turns off immediately when it is not plugged

Hi all, I've had this macbook for about 2 years now.
It had no problems at all. (I didn't use my macbook for like months)
Then I needed it for my school, so I installed windows 7 using bootcamp a few days ago.
and I've noticed that my macbook turns off immediately when it's unplugged.
i thought it is because of windows at first time,
but I booted on with Mac OS and it has same problem.
It just turns off immediately. and it won't back on until I plug it to charger.
Is it battery problem? or could it be anything else?

Sounds like the battery to me. Usually they don't like being left for months especially if fully charged.
Check the battery health
Click on the Apple icon at the top left corner of the screen
Click on "About this Mac"
Click on "More Info"
Under Hardware, click on "Power". This will show you information about your battery, including how many cycles the battery has been through, it's charging ability and so on.
Thanks

This pops up when exporting in iMovie "Unable to prepare project for publishing: The project could not be prepared for publishing because an error occurred. (ParamErr: error in user parameter list)" I have turned off my Time Machine in terminal.

Hi
Error -50 paramErr Error in user parameter list
Can there be any external hard disks - if so How is/are it/they formatted ? Must be Mac OS Extended (hfs) if used for Video.
UNIX/DOS/FAT32/Mac OS Exchange - works for most but not for VIDEO.
What this means in Your situation is above me.
• free space on internal boot hard disk? How much ?
Video codec
• streamingDV, AIC etc. (not .avi, .mp4, .m4v, .wmv etc as they are containers not codecs)
Pictures
• in what format ? .jpg, .bmp, .tif, else ?
Audio
• from where/what format ? iTunes, .avi, .mp3, .aiff, else ?
The "com.apple.iMovie.plist" file
Many users has not observed that there are TWO libraries.
• Library - at root level
• Library - in user/account folder - THIS IS THE ONE to look into
from Luke Burns
I fixed the problem.. but it was very, very strange. I had a very long section for credits and set the line spacing to 1.0.. for some reason this caused it. I removed it, and it worked fine. I put it back, and I couldn't preview or play the video.
I don't know why that could cause that big of a problem, but it did..

You need more free space on your hard drive.

After phone support from apple I ended up creating a new project and adding all 117 clips back in individually till I found out what clips flagged and would not allow me to export. I had 3 I deleted and replaced and everything works now 1hr after tedious work....
Where do Your material come from
• Camera
• External hard disk
• USB-memory
And all are connected so that iMovie can find it ?

Turning off data services

Hi, I was just wondering why you can't use wi-fi when you select to turn data services off. The problem is, is that for this 1 month I don't have unlimited data so need to make sure I don't spend much. Also will any services try to use the data service without user interaction? Thanks for your help

Whenever i turn data services off though it seems to also turn wi-fi off somehow.
It connects to a network however whenever i try to use anything it comes up with 'Unable to connect to the internet, please try again later.' The wi-fi diagnostics menu also says that the 'IP address no longer valid'
Whenever i turn data services back on wi-fi goes back to normal. Weird.
I have a feeling that you don't have the browser set as a Hotspot browser, then.
Even if you turn off Data Services, your Wifi Hotspot browser should work fine. I have one Bold device with no SIM even it, in which I can access and browse the internet on it via only WiFi using the Hotspot browser.

How do I turn off back upp password?

How do I turn off back upp password?

I contacted my carrier as the voicemail screen on the phone indicated your same response. Evidently with IOS 8.0.2, the phone will ask for your voicemail once and you have to set it up and then it does not ask for it anymore. The carrier did need to reset it to allow me to do the aforementioned tasks and gain access to the voicemail. Thank you

HT1807 I have an iPhone 3s. How do I turn OFF data roaming?

I am traveling in Mexico. I have an iPhone 3s. How do I turn OFF data roaming? Under SETTINGS I don't see Network. I don'r see it under SETTINGS/General either.

What you should do, if you don't want any nasty surprises, is put your phone in Airplane mode. That turns off all iPhone radios, but you can go back into settings & turn WiFi back on.
Do not rely on the data roaming setting to protect you.

How to turn off Flex Time

Hi I am just wondering how to turn off flex time as it gets in the way.

There's a little button on the left by the word "Audio Region"
If the EVIL FLEX TIME is on, that little icon next to "Audio Region" will be twisted like a bow-tie indicating that the EVIL FLEX TIME has been activated.
To move audio you have to select the top bar of the clip in this lower audio region (you can see the name of the track or the time code of the track). You can drag-highlight-delete audio from under the "0" line, but not move it. You can also clumsily-and-not-at-all-precisely move audio in the upper tracks (as opposed to the Audio Region window) by dragging them. That won't engage EVIL FLEX TIME at all.
Hope that helps.
:S
I know... it all stinks and now it looks like the latest Garageband update messes it all up even more!
OY!
