My p6210y desktop shuts down & message says environmental issue, please service immediately. Help!?

I've tried cleaning the dust out, the fan is super loud, tried updating everything, including nvidia driver, java, origin, windows updates, etc. Windows 7 & my daughter was playing Sims 3 when this first started yesterday. Sent my computer for repair twice when under warranty for same issue, now it's 2 years old so support wants $60 to troubleshoot over the phone.

Hello Stephaniedannyo,
I understand your PC at this current moment will not even boot up.
You stated that you have the PC serviced twice while under warranty; do you remember what exactly was done or replaced on those 2 service calls?
Also when you turn the PC on if you look at the keyboard do you see any lights that blink it what seems to be a rhythm? (Ex. The caps lock or number lock lights)
Please respond at your earliest convenience.
Thanks.

While editing photos iPhoto shut down. The unexpected shut down message appeared and I pressed re-open. When it reopened I had lost my most recent import as well as imports from the past 2 weeks. When I try to re-import it says that they already exist

After an import of about 20 black & white photos to iPhoto I was editing one when iPhoto shut down. The "unexpected shut down" message was displayed. I clicked reopen, which it did. However, my last import was completely missing. Not only that, everything I had imported, adjusted and filed for the past 2 weeks was also missing. It has still saved all of the albums I created but all show "no photos".
When I try to re-import from my back-up, iPhoto says "can't import, photo is already in the library".
Can anyone help?

What version of iPhoto?
Assuming 09 or later:
Option 1
Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Repair Database. If that doesn't help, then try again, this time using Rebuild Database.
If that fails:
Option 2
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In early versions of Library Manager it's the File -> Rebuild command. In later versions it's under the Library menu.)
This will create an entirely new library. It will then copy (or try to) your photos and all the associated metadata and versions to this new Library, and arrange it as close as it can to what you had in the damaged Library. It does this based on information it finds in the iPhoto sharing mechanism - but that means that things not shared won't be there, so no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your events, albums and keywords, faces and places back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.

Multi language shut down message

When I try to login on my wife's ibook G4 under her name the computer freezes and the multi-language shut down message comes up. At one time I had set up another login in my name and on that I can login fine. ???? Any ideas??

Turns out it is what they call a kernel panic.

Unfortunately they don't have much to say as for fixing it...
Looks like I'll have to make a trip to the Apple store.

Starting ARD in Sys Prefs - "Remote Desktop shutting down..."

Running 10.4.11, and have logged in with ARD via VPN before and was able to control.
ARD was checked off in Sharing pref pane and now when trying to start it up, it says "Remote Desktop shutting down..." and that's how it stays, with the box unchecked, until System Prefs is re-opened. All other services start and stop just fine, but ARD will not start under any user, despite repairing permissions, zapping P-RAM and trashing prefs.

I am not clear about some details of this situation. Your post describes establishing a Remote Desktop session from some remote site to your business PC. Would this connection be a VPN session or would it be a native RDP session?
When you describe attempting to start the VPN client, would I be correct to assume that the VPN client is on your business PC? Can you tell us what the VPN client is attempting to connect to?
Also you have not given us any details of the topology of the business site. Would I be correct in assuming that the business site was protected by a firewall? And would that firewall happen to be a PIX? If so, that might help explain what is going on. The code on PIX (prior to 7.0) will not forward out an interface traffic that was originally received on that interface.

Palm Desktop shuts down when trying to view calendar by month

I'm using a Palm TX with the latest edition of Desktop installed (I think that's 6.2). Everything is normal except, suddenly, I cannot view my calendar in monthly view. Daily, weekly and yearly all work fine. Desktop shuts down when trying to view in monthly view. I did a system restart, a Desktop reinstallation, a download of the latest version and installation of that version and, finally, uninstallment of the existing Desktop, download of the newest version and installation of that version. Nothing seems to enable me to view the calendar in monthly view. This is a spontaneous event. I've been running Desktop on a Vista Ultimate system since February without incident. I have no idea about how to solve this.
Thanks
Post relates to: Palm TX

Well, here's where we are now. It's a good thing that I have desktop on my office computer because when I tried a Hotsynch with my home desktop, Hotsynch wiped out all the data on my handheld and then hung up both the handheld and desktop in the middle of the Hotsynch. I'm going to overwrite the entire handheld with the office desktop file. As for the home setup, I'm thinking the only thing I can do now is uninstall Palm and wipe out the entire directory of files. Am I correct about this? Do I need to do a clean uninstall?

Mac mini keeps displaying shut down message every 10 minutes help?

My mac mini 320 gb machine with the cd drive in it from the 2010 model keeps displaying the shut down message every time minutes and I don't have enough time to check everything and i need some help. Thanks

Here is a link to a system preference you can check.http://support.apple.com/kb/PH4014?viewlocale=en_US
It is a security feature.
You did not mention it but are you using a movie player other than the provide DVD player or iTunes. For example VLC. If you are, for some reason OS X does not know what is going on, i.e. watching a movie, so it thinks you left. So, after 10mins it trys to log off. The annoying part is that it will not do a force log off if there are programs running. Well atleast it is annoying to me.
Good Luck,

everytime i go to plug my ipod 5 in with the charger in to the mac desktop computer a message says "USB DEVICE DISABLED" "unplug the device using to much power to re-enable usb devices" and ever since i had got that message my charger had stopped working even plug into a wall outlet
ps.its my only charger and i need to know if i can fix this problem or my mac broke my charger

Hey HoustonSmith, using to much power generally means a short. Do not use this cable, the lighting cables have a history of failure; shorting out. If within one year of purchase date take it to Apple, the cable also has a one year warranty, if short is do to manufacturing flaw and not abuse Apple will replace it free! Otherwise a new cable is around $30. You could also try a reset or restore, but don't think a glitch is your problem. If you do try to restore, just remember to make backup copies of all the info / data on this iPod to your computer first, then attempt to restore. Good luck. Cheers.

Reset the device:
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
If that doesn't help, tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings
If that doesn't help, tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings
You will have to re enter your Wi-Fi password.
If nothing above helped, restart your router.
No data is lost due to a reset.

TS3297 Any idea why I can't purchase stuff off either iTunes or AppStore? I am getting a message saying unknown error has occurred immediately I enter my password.

Any idea why I can't purchase stuff off either iTunes or AppStore? I am getting a message saying unknown error has occurred immediately I enter my password.

Brett,
Well done getting the wireless network secured.
You have to precede the (hex) password with a '$' in Mac OS, to tell the Internet Connect dialog box that you are keying a hex password (rather than ASCII). This is because the Mac has detected that the network is WEP protected, and leaves it to you to decide how you want to key the password.
As an alternative, in Internet Connect (or from the AirPort icon menu), you can elect to join an "Other" network. If you select your network again, it'll come up with "WEP Password" as the option of Wireless Security. You can change this to "WEP 40/128-bit hex" and then not have to precede your password with the '$'.
Alternatively, you could tell us the make and model of your wireless router and we can tell you how to set, and use an ASCII password. From your 10-character hex password, we can see that you're using 40/64-bit WEP. Non-Apple routers can be a bit fussy when using ASCII passwords with 40-bit WEP (don't worry, this is also true for Windows PC's using 40-bit WEP too), but we can talk you through it.
As a final alternative, as you have such a whizzy Mac, as long as your wireless router supports it, you could use WPA security, and never have to worry about ASCII / hex / '$', etc. Older Macs (particularly original AirPort cards - not AirPort Extreme - and OS9) were limited to 40-bit WEP.

That's what I found about error 1004 in this article: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1275
Error 1004 and 1013: These errors may be the result of the connection to gs.apple.com being redirected or blocked. Follow these steps to resolve these errors:
Check security software. Ensure that communication to gs.apple.com is allowed. Follow this article for assistance with security software. iTunes for Windows: Troubleshooting security software issues.
Check the hosts file. The restore will fail if there is an active entry to redirect gs.apple.com. Follow iTunes: Advanced iTunes Store troubleshooting to edit the hosts file or revert to default on Windows. See section "Blocked by configuration: (Mac OS X/Windows) > Rebuild network information".
Try to restore from another known-good computer and network.
If the errors persist on another computer, the device may need service.

You can try resetting your iPad and iPhone by simultaneously pressing and holding the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons until you see the Apple Logo. This can take up to 15 seconds so be patient and don't release the buttons until the logo appears.
Try again to see if the problem persists.

How do I send crash reports?

If you're actually using Mac OS X v10.5.8, as your profile says, you're wasting your time trying to submit crash reports to Apple.
