My macbook air froze, after switching off and on again it started making a beeping noise. the screen is black. please help :(

How do I stop the beeping sound on my Mac book air? The screen is black.

What beeping sequence are you getting?
1 beep - No RAM
2 beep - Incompatible RAM
3 beep - Faulty RAM
4 beep - No good boot image in ROM
5 beep - Failed processor
With an Air you will have to take it to an Apple store genius bar to address any of those issues.

HT1338 my macbook air continuously turns itself off and on again for no apparent reason- despite having full battery... What is wrong with it?

As of recently my macbook air continuously turns on and off.
Sometimes it does not turn on at all. When it does turn on, after a few minutes it comes up with the shut down options and unless I press cancel it turns off. Occasionally when turning on it only gets as far as the startup sound then turns off again- occasionally in a continuous loop.
Any ideas?
HELP!

I think you might get a new phone instead of repairing it as it takes time and you said the repairing center is far from your living place

Because of low battery my iphone 5 got switched off and than its not starting by pressing the power button or by keeping it on charge. While charging a white screen comes for 2 second and goes away. This process continues till the phone is on charge. Please suggest how can I start my phone.

Hello Ritugor,
I would be concerned too if my iPhone was not powering on. I found an article with steps you can take when you encounter an issue like this. I recommend following the steps below:
Will not turn on, will not turn on unless connected to power, or unexpected power off
Verify that the Sleep/Wake button functions. If it does not function, inspect it for signs of damage. If the button is damaged or is not functioning when pressed, seek service.
Check if a Liquid Contact Indicator (LCI) is activated or there are signs of corrosion. Learn about LCIsand corrosion.
Connect the iPhone to the iPhone's USB power adapter and let it charge for at least ten minutes.
After at least 30 minutes, if:
The home screen appears: The iPhone should be working. Update to the latest version of iOS if necessary. Continue charging it until it is completely charged and you see this battery icon in the upper-right corner of the screen . Then unplug the phone from power. If it immediately turns off, seek service.
The low-battery image appears, even after the phone has charged for at least 20 minutes: See "iPhone displays the low-battery image and is unresponsive" symptom in this article.
Something other than the Home screen or Low Battery image appears, continue with this article for further troubleshooting steps.
If the iPhone did not turn on, reset it while connected to the iPhone USB power adapter.
If the display turns on, go to step 4.
If the display remains black, go to next step.
Connect the iPhone to a computer and open iTunes. If iTunes recognizes the iPhone and indicates that it is in recovery mode, attempt to restore the iPhone. If the iPhone doesn't appear in iTunes or if you have difficulties in restoring the iPhone, see this article for further assistance.
If restoring the iPhone resolved the issue, go to step 4. If restoring the iPhone did not solve the issue, seek service.

Since installing iOS 6, I have had problems receiving calls and messages. Calls go straight to answerphone and messages do not appear until I switch off and on again. I have also installed iOS 6.1.1

Try a reset. Press & hold the Power and Home buttons simultaneously, ignoring the red power off slider, until the Apple logo appears. Then release both buttons. This should not affect any content on the iPad, it is similar to rebooting your computer.

When I play my Ipod shuffle 3rd gen there's a moment when I start hearing interference until it stops playing, when I turn it off and on again it starts playing from the first song all over again, and once it sounded like the music was slowing down.

My Ipod shuffle 3rd gen starts playing songs with some kind of interference until it stops playing, when I turn it off and on again it starts playing from the first song all over again, and once it sounded like the music was slowing down. First I thought it was the earphones, but I exchanged them for newer ones and so far its the same

You may want to do a Restore on the shuffle in iTunes. The Restore button is on the shuffle's Summary screen in iTunes. This will erase the shuffle, re-install its software, and set it to default settings. If it's a software or data corruption glitch, the Restore should fix it. After the Restore, reload or resync your songs, and try it again. As a test, you may want to initially select a small number of songs to put back on the shuffle.

Word documents have disappeared from my desk top (macbook air) and cannot be found anywhere, happened after switching off and re-bootingk

Saved word documents have dissappeared from the desk top after saving. Problem seems to occur when laptop is switched off and then re-started. they can't be found anywhere e.g tried spotlight, recent documents etc. Help. Joe

First, you might as well address the two apparently-minor issues you found:
Some info on the Epson Scanner Monitor (via searching these forums):
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=8272208&#8272208
Not sure about the MS Word message, but it looks like you might need an upgrade. I'd check with Microsoft, or perhaps VersionTracker.com.
Ok, back to the original problem. Does the message have any other text (intelligible or not)?
Does it give you any options, especially "report"? If so, take it, then look via Console for a crash log.
What IS in the system log for the sleep/wake time? There should be a System Sleep, followed by a System Wake, and perhaps another line or two. Anything in that area might be helpful.

Offline or Online Backup after switching off and on the archving mode

Hello guys,
I am doing an SAP (on Oracle) upgrade. In the upgrade guide there are two completely different statements about making a backup of the Oracle database during upgrade.
1st statement:
"If you deactivate archiving, you have to make a full backup of the database after the downtime before you switch archiving back on. This must be executed as an offline backup."
2nd statement:
"Backup: Database Was Operated in NOARCHIVELOG Mode
Activate ARCHIVELOG mode again and create a full backup of the database. This must be executed as an offline backup."
Quotes from: "Upgrade GuideSAP ERP 6.0 Including Enhancement Package 4 Support Release 1 ABAPBased on SAP NetWeaver 7.0 Including Enhancement Package"
I understand the fact that the backup has to be offline if you do it before you activate archiving. This is logical.
1) Why does SAP do these two proposals before and after switching on archiving which are completely contrary?
2) Why does the backup has to be offline if you do it after switching on archiving?
May be somebody knows the background for this.
Thanks
Nik

Hi,
Two kind of Recovery play an important role in Database Recovery after DB Restore. The Database recovery can be Compete recovery, point-in-time recovery or partial recovery.
Media Recovery (due to media failure/corruption or loss of Data files) can be performed by applying all Offline Redo Log files which are generated from Online Redo-log file in Archive Mode.
Instance Recovery can be done with the help of Online Redo log file and undo table-space to achieve consistent status of Database. In this recovery the committed transactions (which are logged in Online Redo Log files) are roll forward and the uncomplete transactions (which are also logged in Online Redo Log Files) are rolled back into DB using Undo space info.
If you deactivate archiving, you have to make a full backup of the database after
the downtime before you switch archiving back on. This must be executed as an offline backup.
                   With Archive log Mode , one can deal with Media Recovery and Instance Recovery. Upon deactivating Archive log mode, the Archive log files will not be generated and the circular logging will take place within the group of online redo log files.
                   So, after deactivating Archive Log mode, Its recommended to take immediate offline backup to have consistent Backup copy of Database which may be required to deal with demanded media recovery by restoring that immediate latest offline Backup. If the database operates in NOARCHIVELOG mode, the database can ONLY be completely recovered from instance failure but not from media failure. This means that, in case of media failure you will lose all work done after the last valid offline backup. The database can be backed up only while it is completely closed.
                   Upon media failure after deactivating the Archive log mode (..rare chance, but we can not ignore it...),the complete recovery can not be achieved if the large time gape is there between the last successful offline backup and DB crash because between this time it may be the chance that the Online Redo log files are overwritten so many times in circular manner.

My phone freezes, refuses to open some applications some times, switches off and restarts by itself... any idea what the problem is?

I am using iPhone 5 (iOS 7.1.2). It often switches off and restarts by itself, sometimes it refuses to open certain applications until I switch off and restart it. Sometimes it does not make a call through unless I switch off and restart.
Any idea what the problem could be and any advice to what I should do ?

Hi jallam,
If you are having issues with restarting and apps not launching you may want to try this to troubleshoot.
Since restarting has not helped, you may want to restore the iPhone as a new device -

I came out to a black computer screen. I can see the mouse arrow but otherwise nothing. I disconnected the computer and tried turning it back on. It starts up like usual but bar going across under the apple freezes and the screen goes black. I can hear the computer running. Help!

The screen to my iPhone 4 went completely black. Ive tried turning it on and off, plugging it in, restoring it from my iTunes but the screen stays black. It connects to iTunes and when i plug it in, it vibrates like I have a text.

Why does the screen turn black? I was using it normally and it all of a sudden faded to black and hasnt come back on since yesterday. You can see the back light but no image on the screen. Ive plugged it in and it vibrates that its connected but still the screen stays black. I left it alone while I slept and tried again in the morning but still nothing.

So weird mine is doing the same thing. I didnt drop it or anything. I was texting and it suddenly went white and then turned black. It says its plugged into itunes but the screen comntinues to stay black.

My dialog windows appear off the screen...please help

Many of my dialog windows such as paragraph styles, or when I place items appear off the screen (I see the bottom of the window, but not the top which means I cannot move them around) - Any suggestions?

I am having the same issue. I am using CS6, and my 'Effects' box is off the screen and unusable. I have tried resetting the workspace, changing the workspace, restarting the program, rebooting the system, switching between multiple and single monitor....all with no effect. The dialog box is always in the same place; in the upper left of the screen. Any further help would be appreciated.
Mac OS X 10.8.2
InDesign CS6 with the latest updates
15" MacBook Pro Retina
FIXED: As soon as I posted this, I had a thought. While that dialog box was active, I went to System Preferences>Displays>Gather Windows. May or may not work for original poster.
