My macbook sometimes needs to be plugged in, in order for it turn on.
So sometimes when I open my macbook it wont turn on. I push the power button, close and reopen it but the only way it will turn on is if I connect the power cord. I know the battery is not dead because once I does turn on I look at the battery and its usually in the 50% or up range. Today when it happened I plugged it in and the battery icon had an X in it. I unplugged the cord and my mac just turned off. I plugged it back in and got another X in the battery icon. After a few minutes it returned to normal and started charging. Any Ideas of what is wrong with my mac.
Here is the battery info
Charge Information:
Charge Remaining (mAh): 5483
Fully Charged: No

Full Charge Capacity (mAh): 5826
Health Information:
Cycle Count: 714

Does Macbook really needs adobe flash player download in order to watch video clips on the web?
Hello Angel8C,
Your MacBook Air running Yosemite will need an updated version of the Flash Player plugin to play web content that is in the Flash format (not all video content is Flash; there is also HTML5 video, amongst others). If you are being prompted to update your Flash Player plugin, you may find the following article helpful:
Adobe Flash Player updates available for OS X on March 20, 2015 - Apple Support

Need to run AutoCreate FInal Assembly Orders for a Set of Orders
Hi All,
I Need to run AutoCreate FInal Assembly Orders for a Set of Orders, It can run for a Org or for a Single Order.
How to Run it for set of Orders or Batch of orders.
Thanks & RegardsThere is no seeded way to do this.
At one client, we ended up creating a wrapper that accepted more parameters; built a order header cursor and calling the AutoCreate FA Orders for each order.

AMC cost need to be captured in maintenance order for fleet equipments
Hi Guys,
Our requirement is for fleet equipments we need to capture all the cost like,Material,AMC.....etc in one order.
Normally we will create one mainteanance order for each equipment .When ever we post the consumption in Transaction:IFCU the cost of the fuel will be booked against the order.
But for AMC through maintenance plan we are creating the order.So, cost will be booked in this but not in the common order which we have created for fleet equipment.
How can i bring this AMC cost also in the maintenance order which we are creating for each fleet equipment?
Regards
KumarHi Maheswaran,
Thxs for your inputs.But when i create the settlement profile with standing order as default object .This settlement profile will be assigned to the order type:PM03.This is will be default for this order type,but for preventive it should settle to the respective cost center.
How this can be handled?
Regards

Upon a fresh reboot the Firefox icon in the Taskbar will not work on the first click, sometimes it will not work at all and I need to go to Start-> then click the Firefox icon in the Start menu. Why is it that the icon won't start up on the first click?
Same issue - however firefox will open but I can not click on only of my tool bar shortcuts - the writing on the google age is greyed out so I can not click on anything. Still no resolution? I have deleted the folders and re-installed - it will open and then locks and it will not work????

HT3462 does the person need to have an iphone in order for me to communicate with them?
I want to text someone who doesn't have an iphone or internet on their phone, is it person to use ichat to contact them?
Hi,
You can use SMS if the person is in thre United States and uses the "right" carrier.
Up to at least iChat 5 (Snow Leopard) the Computer could be set as if is were in the United States and the SMS options would show in the File Menu and Buddies menu of iChat.
This is set in System Preferences > Language and Text (in the Personal row before you get to the Security and Privacy/Firewall one)
The phone number could then be added as if it were a Buddy to the Buddy list with a leading + 1 as in +1234567890.
That phone has to be in the United States on one of these Carriers
By the time Messages comes along in Mountain Lion the SMS menu items disappear even though the app can still send SMS to AIM "phone Buddies"
I am not sure about OS X 10.7.x and iChat 6.x as I don't have a computer that can run that version at the moment (well I do but it is running Mountain Lion)

Need correct Win 7 driver installation order for Satellite P500/01G
Hi,
I have a Toshiba Satellite P500 and had to replace HDD after it was dropped by son.
I dont have the recovery disc so i loaded Win 7 from image on USB.
I down loaded all the drivers but have been frustrated by a few things.
The webcam seems to be impossible to get working despite trying every fix i could find online and some devices unkown in device manager.
The Toshiba site lists multiple audio,display and wireless cards wgich makes it hard to know the correct driver to install.
I needd a correct driver list and the order they should installed in
Model is Satellite P500/01G (PSPGSA-01G003)
windows 7 32 bit
CheersHi
I have Satellite P500 too and Im really satisfied with it. I hope you are also happy with your machine.
To be honest I think you should use it with original Win7 64bit version.
As I can see you have an Australian model. I have UK model but I think installation order must be the same. So here it is:
Windows 7
Intel Chipset SW Installation Utility
Intel Management Engine Interface
Display Driver
Intel Turbo Boost Technology Driver
Intel Rapid Storage Technology Driver
TOSHIBA Supervisor Password Utility
TOSHIBA HW Setup Utility
TOSHIBA Value Added Package
Card Reader Controller
NVIDIA HD Audio Driver
Conexant Audio Driver
Wireless LAN Driver
Synaptics Touch Pad Driver
TOSHIBA HDD Protection
Bluetooth Stack for Windows by Toshiba
LAN Driver
YUAN DVB-T/ATSC Tuner Driver
TOSHIBA USB Sleep and Charge Utility
TOSHIBA Face Recognition
TOSHIBA eco Utility
TOSHIBA HDD/SSD Alert
TOSHIBA Service Station
HDMI Control Manager
TOSHIBA Remote Control Manager
TOSHIBA Fingerprint Utility
PatchFiles FixFPService_REG_1.0
ConfigFree
TOSHIBA Assist
TOSHIBA Web Camera Application
TOSHIBA Extended Tiles for Windows Mobility Center
TOSHIBA Folder Migrating Utility

If some listed driver is not available for download just continue with next one.

My macbook works with the charger plugged in but even when it shows it charged without the charger it shuts down. Does it need a new battery or is it something else. How do i check battery life?
It probably needs a new battery. Check your battery info by clicking the Apple menu and select about this Mac, then either click more info or system report depending on which version of OS X you're running.

Daughter's homework assignment needs adobe flash plug in. Just got my new MacBook Pro and scare to download program if it compromises the security of laptop. What do I do in this situation?
OS X will automatically block versions of Flash that are known to be unsafe. As long as Flash is kept up to date, it's reasonably safe. You can minimize your exposure to Flash content by installing the "ClickToFlash" or "ClickToPlugin" Safari extension. Flash elements will then load only when clicked.

My computer has Windows XP, I also have Mozilla Firefox. I don't understand why sometimes, a bar appears across the screen, where the tabs should be , and it says I need to install plug ins. It has a button that says, install, and one that says, click here to find out what plug ins you need. I've tried pressing both of them on different occasions but no luck. Can someone Please Help me??
Checking your list of plugins, a common plugin that you do not have is Java, it may be trying to install that one. You can get it from http://java.com/

DavidSo when you connect the adapter to the macbook the LED light on the adapter doesn't come up as amber or green? I would take the computer and the adapter to an apple store (or authorized apple service provider) to have the computer tested on a known good adapter. That will let you know if you need to replace the adapter or have the computer sent in for repair. If you are within the one year warranty or extended 3 year applecare plan either of these should be covered. (barring any accidental damage to the adapter or computer)

My Macbook sometimes doesn't connect to my Wireless N network
I had my topcase replaced by apple a few weeks ago. Since then I've noticed my macbook SOMETIMES doesn't connect to my wireless N network (from my AEBS running on 5.8ghz frequency).
It's strange because most of the time it finds the network fine. But sometimes when i open the macbook up (awakes from sleep) it doesn't see the network (it's not available from the list of available networks). If i try to connect manually to the network when this happens i get a "connection timeout" message. If i turn off my airport connection off and then on with the macbook (thru the menu bar) it sometimes finds the N network. Sometimes that doesn't work, and i have to put the macbook to sleep and hope it finds the network when it awakes. Sometimes that solves the problem, but i may have to try it 3 or 4 times.
If i switch my AEBS to a mixed signal (supporting G) i don't have these problems, but i shouldn't have to do that, and i'm sacrificing wireless speed if i do that. I have a stable connection when it DOES find the network (it won't drop out and will be at full strength) but as soon as i put it to sleep i run the risk it may not find the network when it awakes.
As i said before i didn't notice this problem before I sent in the macbook to have the topcase repaired - is it possible the airport card was damaged? I was only running a N wireless network a week prior to submitting the macbook for repair, so i'm not positive that's it either.There's a reason why some are less than energetic in answering your question: the "pinwheel of death" could mean a lot of things. To start off, you will need to use various utilities to coax your MBP into functionality:
1. Perform a Permisions Repair, and also Repair your disk on Disk Utilities. If this doesn't work, proceed to the next step.
2. Using a free utility like Onyx, clean your caches.
3. Using the free Kext Wizard, make sure your files are consistent and accurate.
4. Use OpenDNS by connecting to this link:
https://discussions.apple.com/thread/2478039?start=0&tstart=0
OpenDNS is a simple way of making your online experience faster and easier.
If these steps were successful, take the time to post here; others will profit from your experience. If you still don't have the answer, post...and we'll find the solution!
