My MacBook Pro gets really hot when I open a video file of any kind and the video starts lagging and the image fades away, also with anything that starts the fan. Is extremely hot on the left upper corner. Is there something I can do about it?

Hi calmbl,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
It sounds like you purchased Welcome to New York from the iTunes Store, but ended up with a different song.
I recommend reporting the issue with your purchase using the steps in this link:

Display went black

Was using my macbook as normal, then poof screen went black thought battery was dead but it is 65% also noticed on restarting I can faintly see my log in screen at the right angle. Any opinions as to what is wrong. Of course my apple protection plan just ended in october so I'm sure it will cost me.

This happened to mine... it is most likely your display inverter you can hook it up a external monitor to check in that case the other monitor would work.... you can either replace it your self but it is a very hard job or you can take it to the mac genius. I did both i replaced it myself but since the piece was refurbished it messed up again like a month later (the piece costed about 75) so then i took it to them i got it fixed for 118 and that its no problems so far and they were very nice.
I suggest just taking it to the mach store

Ibook display went black

I have an ibook g3 800.
I am experiencing the display to be back when I turn on the ibook.
I had the logicboard replaced under the logicbord recall.
I am not sure what might have caused the display to go black. It was working a few a months ago and then it went black. I know the HD spins up, because I can hear. I tested the computer in target mode and know the HD mounts
I am able to get the computer to show me any display when connected into the apple VGA (RGB) Cable.
Is a key combination that I need to use to get the ibook to work off an external display?

Maybe the answer is somewhere in here:

Release the Buttons.

Iphone has a dim blank screen, after replacement. Has been hard reset, and computer reset. The phone is still black., iphone has a dim blank screen, after replacement. Has been hard reset, and computer reset. The phone is still black.

My Iphone 4s screen is black after replacement. I reset the phone, hard reset it, and even let it charge for several days. It continues to make a breif sound when charging. The phone is working, because when i switch the vibrating mode on and off it vibrate. Please help. I think this is a hardware problem.

Did you replace the screen or is it a replacement phone?
If it's a replacement phone take it back to the Apple store that replaced it.
If you replaced the screen you are out of luck; the iPhone is not user serviceable, and any attempt to fix it means that Apple will not longer repair or replace it, in or out of warranty.

HT4993 My iphone 4s has seem to turn off or has gone black. i cant get it to do anything with even pressing buttons. is there something i can do before i have to drive to the store?

My iPhone 4s Went black, i cant get anything to come up on the screen, i dont event hink its on. Is there a way to fix this without going to the store just yet?

No.
Click Support at the top of this page, then click Manuals.
Read the manual. Reset is in the basics section.
Hole the home and power buttons down at the same time until the Apple icon appears on the screen, ignoring the prompt to slide.

I have a 500 GB hard drive and a 1TB Time Capsule running on a MacBook Pro. It was all working well until the MacBook went in for a repair a week or so ago. Since then, TC will not perform a backup; instead, it says the backup is too large for the disk

Since having my MacBook Pro repaired (for a video problem) Time Capsule returns the following message: "This backup is too large for the backup disk. The backup requires 428.08 GB but only 192.14 GB are available."
I notice that there is also a new sparse bundle.
Since TC has my ONLY backup (going back about 4 years) I am reluctant to wipe it and start over fresh as I am afraid of losing files.
Is there a way of dealing with this?
I am using Snow Leopard 10.6.8

The repair shop likely replaced a major circuit board on your MacBook Pro, so Time Machine thinks that you have a "new" computer and it wants to make a new complete backup of your Mac.
You are going to have to make a decision to either add another new Time Capsule....or USB drive to your existing Time Capsule....and in effect start over with a new backup of your Mac and then move forward again.
For "most" users, I think this is probably the best plan because you preserve all your old backups in case you need them at some point, and you start over again with a new Time Capsule so you have plenty of room for years of new backups.
Or, as you have mentioned, you have the option of erasing the Time Capsule drive and starting all over again. The upside is that you start over and have plenty of room for new backups. The downside is that you lose years of backups.
Another option....trying to manually delete old backups individually....is tricky business....and very time consuming. To get an idea of what is involved here, study this FAQ by Pondini, our resident Time Capsule and Time Machine expert on the Community Support area. In particular, study the pink box.
http://web.me.com/pondini/Time_Machine/12.html
Once you look through this, I think you may agree that this type of surgery is not for the faint of heart. I would suggest that you consider this only if one of the other options just cannot work for you.

When playing games on facebook, I often get the message "virtual memory too low, is being increased" Is there something I can do to clean out the "virtual memory" to avoid this?

As mentioned in my question above, it happens usually during playing games. I wondered if there were someway to clean out the virtual memory, as opposed to it "increasing" continually and overloading my memory in general. You are speaking with a computer novice for the most part, so I am unfamiliar with a lot. I do do updates and general maintenance on the computer, but is that enough for this issue?

Physical memory is the memory that is installed on your computer as real memory. To be able to run programs that require more memory and more programs at the same time (via time sharing and task switching) it is also possible to move (swap) currently not needed code and data to disk to make room for other programs and data. The total memory available for programs is the Virtual Memory.
You can check the Virtual Memory settings here: Control Panel > System > Advanced > Performance > Settings (Advanced tab)<br />
Windows can manage more memory then is physical available and that memory is stored in a page file on your hard drive.
If the size of that file is not large enough and all available memory is in use then you get the Virtual Memory is low warning.
Make sure that you have at least 1 GB or the recommended setting for the Virtual Memory.
If you have less than 1 GB physical memory installed on your computer then if possible add more memory.

2011 MBP display went black

My 15" MBP was bought last month.
I started up my MBP this morning I heard the machine running sound and saw the power light turned on.
However, the screen was totally black till loaded to the login page.
I forced to shut down by pressing the power button.
The screen didn't show anything for the 2nd and 3rd trial.
Finally succeeded in 4th time...
What's wrong with my MBP? is it the display problem?

Perform a SMC reset

Did you apply the recent EFI firmware update? See this and hopefully you can restore your firmware back to original conditions.
