NEW MBP: any overheating issues with the newest MBP?

I'd like to know if anyone experienced any overheating problems with the newest models? Plus, are they really all warped?? I wanna go for the 15-inch one...

My MBP, received a week ago, got loco on me once and really started heating up with the fans going full-blast, but it turned out to be Spotlight happily trying to index a very large external firewire drive with an extensive photo collection. Once I disabled indexing on that volume, things returned to and have remained normal ever since. For ventilation purposes, you need to leave the area around the keyboard and around the display hinge free, since that is where the fans push the air in and out thru the machine.
That's also why the jury is still out, regarding using a MBP for intensive applications in a closed-lid, external KVM configuration.

  • Are there any known issue with the HP 3005pr USB 3 replicator ?

    Hi,
    I recently ordered an HP laptop Pavilion dv6t-7000 with Intel i7 and nVidia video. While the unit isn't due to arrve for about 2 weeks, I'm looking for a docking station/port replicator.
    Are there any known issues with the HP 3005pr USB 3 replicator ? Does it fully support Win7 64 bit? I am also considering the Targa U3 unit, but I'd prefer HP if I can be assured that it works.
    I'd like to be able to leave the laptop closed when at my desk so I can use  an external keyboard, mouse, and monitor.
    Does HP make this device or does a 3rd party make it for them?
    I've read so many stories on various forums regarding these things.
    Any suggestions from HP or others? I need to order something soon, but I don't want head aches when it arrives.
    thanks,
    Steve

    This HP USB 3.0 Port Replicator fully supports with Windows 7 64-bit, if that is the one that you are talking about.

  • Any Bootcamp issues with the new MBP? What about right clicking?

    Tried out the new MBP at the Apple store... was wondering how Bootcamp would work with it. I use Bootcamp all the time for work so I'm interested to here the pro's and con's for the new models. Seems like the new trackpad clicking would be cause issues with the "two-finger click" in Bootcamp.

    Right clicking issues galore!
    (at least in the windows side of things...)
    The 64bit windows worked fine....
    The 32bit windows had many issues, even after 2 attempts. (via boot camp)
    The main issue: the functions keys are locked on. Normally, I would hold down "fn" and push "f10" to mute but that doesn't work. All I have to do is hit "f10" and its muted. That is all good until I have to right-click using the "shift+f10" method since the bottom-right-of-trackpad and two-finger-clicking doesn't work whatsover. The "shift+f10" method won't work now since the fn keys are locked on. We have NO IDEA what the problem is. Could it be a driver issue...though it works fine with x64bit and OS X side of things.
    Oh, and mac doesn't give support if one installs Vista and Microsoft won't give support since it isn't on a 'native' pc, so we are screwed. They have both protected themselves and blamed it on the other and the customer is left out to dry.

  • Exchange SP2 to SP3 RU7 upgrade and any know issues with the Dialogic Gateways

    We are planning on upgrading out Exchange servers from SP2 to SP3 RU7. We are currently using an Avaya phone system and have Dialgoc gate2ways between these systems to allow us to get the voice mail into the end user's mailbox as a wav file. We are using
    the DMG2120's with code many years old. Has anyone had any issues or know of anyone that has had issues?

    Hi,
    I have checked the your question from our internal channel and did not find any related compatibility issues with the update. I also check the third-party forum but still cannot find any threads about any potential issues.
    I think we can feel free to do the upgrade. If you would like to double confirm the question, you can also ask a question in Dialogic forum for more help:

  • Are there any known issues with the latest update to iTunes on Windows 7 maxing out the processor and nearly bringing the system to a hault.

    Has anyone experienced an issue with the latest update to iTunes (11.2.0.115) for Windows where iTunes pegs out the processor at 97%, 98%, and holds there for maybe 15 minutes before dropping to 50%. During that time, the system is basically useless. You just have to ride it out. I'm running Windows 7 Home Premium.

    Hi OnceBeforeIDie,

    Hello,
    In answer to your question, I have not heard of any "known problems."
    The device may, indeed, be faulty.  Try resetting the PRAM and SMC before you buy a new one.

  • HT3204 I am having issues with the newest IOS6 update..

    Ever since the newest update was available I have been experiencing problems with connecting to the App store. Keeps telling me "Cannot connect to the store" Before with the last IOS 5 update I had no problem... and now I have to plug my Ipod touch up to a computer just to look at the app store. Is there anybody else out there who has experienced this and possibly fixed this problem? I need help, because my computer is so slow just plugging it in makes the whole thing freeze up for hours.

    Do you have Restrictions turned on in Settings>General?

  • Are there any known issues with the Sony DCR-SR65?

    Has anyone had any experience with this camera? My school is looking to buy one so I can record classes & school events. I am just trying to make sure it is recognised by the computer and that there are no major problems with it.
    Also, it seems that it only has USB (no firewire). Does anyone see this as an issue?
    Does anyone have a better recommendation for a video camera than the above?
    I have a late 2007 iMac with both iMovie 08 and 06.
    With thanks
    Mike.

    I would disagree with Bengt's advice to this extent.
    You don't need firewire for the modern high definition cameras that are on the Apple Supported List.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1014
    Most of these cameras require USB and do not even have firewire.
    However, avoid USB-only cameras for standard definition or DV formats (especially if they are not on the supported list.)
    Also, just about any miniDV/Firewire camera will work. You don't have to worry whether or not they are on the list.

  • Are there any known issues with the epub plugin causing firefox to revert search engine back to yahoo and then disabling the ability to change search settings?

    My wife recently added a plugin, epub reader. Upon starting up Firefox the next day she noticed that the default search engine was changed back to Yahoo after we previously fixed this. Furthermore the ability to change search settings was grayed out. After epub reader was removed the problem was solved. I am surprised that I am unable to find anything written to this end about epub reader. Is this a tool promoted and distributed by Yahoo?
    Incidentally, how much would each user need to contribute to get mozilla away from Yahoo? Yahoo is, in my opinion, little more than an advertising vehicle, and not a real search engine.

    I went to Costco today and asked long known VZW Kiosk rep re what phone would he recommend...DX, DI or Fascinate.
    Not to my surprise, I was told that DX is the best of those three. Given the fact that all three is the same price $199, it indicates that is has nothing to do with price.
    When I acquired him about how Fascinate sales going, rep told me that since that phone went for sale this Thursday, local Costco only sold 10 Fascinate but that not all...7 of them were returned back to Costco by Saturday. That is a 70% return rate which seems to be way too high for the high level smartphone.
    At the same time, local Costo VZW kiosk can't keep up with demand of the DX, they are being sold out as soon as they are getting them. I am not advertising for DX here as I am myself briefly owned DX as soon as it was released and its problem with reboot forced me to return it as I didn't want to deal with replacement as I had bad experience in the past two years with VZW replacing my phones every two to three month with replacement phone being worse then the one that is being replaced.
    There is no such a thing as a perfect smartphone (sorry to all iPhone fans) but VZW should take a special "achievement" award for screwing up such a wonderful phone as Galaxy S.
    I can only hope that either DX with 2.2 will be better than the one with 2.1 or I will wait for what is coming up with HTC in November. 

  • Known issues with the Super Drive on an iMac 2.7 Ghz

    Are there any known issues with the Super Drive on an iMac 2.7 that would result in speed issues and a grinding sound?

    Vertically installed super slim DVD drives are not as reliable as a plain desktop burner. I've had one fail in two of three iMacs and have always had an external which I use most of the time. Other than that, the brand new iMacs do not have a Super Drive, so if that is what you are inquiring about, the point is moot. You need to buy an external anyway. As far as speed, I have never used a burner at high speed - unless you have a professional model, you can easily get burn errors when burning at a fast speed; sometimes consumer models do well burning with high speeds , other times not.

  • Anybody else having issues with the new 1.1??

    For some reason, I have encountered two issues already.. Whenever I'm exporting my galleries as web pages, nothing happens! It creates a null folder that I specify but then doesn't export any photos or html pages.. If I delete the folder and do it again, the exact same way, for some miracle it then begins to export.. There is no logical explanation and its clear that its a bug..
    Also, when exporting multiple images into CS2, that also fails for me.. It only opens up one picture and even though the others are selected, it doesn't seem to do the trick.. Its not my computer because i have a brand new quad w/ 4 gigs of memory.. I didn't encounter either of these issues with the older version..
    Anybody else??

    I tried both, and was successfull both times.
    External Edit:
    1. I selected 2 images (D200 RAW images).
    2. Right clicked to get the contextual menu and selected Open with External Editor (I have my prefs set up for Photoshop).
    3. Both images opened in Photoshop.
    I can't image it being system specific. What camera and file type are you using?

  • Syncing issues with the new iTunes..

    Hi,
    I just downloaded the new iTunes (11.0.1.12) and am facing some sunc issues.
    In my previous itunes, when i would download an app to my iPod over wifi and then connect it to my PC, iTunes would automatically sync and maintain a copy of the app in my PC. My iPod and the PC would be in sync.
    But now after I've downloaded this latest iTunes, I downloaded an app to my iPod and when I tried to sync with the PC, the app no longer got copied to my PC. I've tried syncing many times. Its there on my iPod but never gets copied to the PC during sync. Why is is this happening?
    Help!

    There aren't any issues with the new iTunes. You need the most recent iTunes to sync your iPod

  • Is anyone having volume issues with the new Iphone 4S?

    Is anyone having volume issues with the new Iphone 4S?

    Yes, the volume on my iPhone 4s will max out without me touching any button or setting.  When opening mail, for instance, the ringer icon will appear and the volume level goes to max volume - and I'm not touching the volume buttons.  It seems to happen randomly, at least I can't identify a pattern, but thankfully it doesn't happen all the time, but at least once a day.  
    Anyone else seen this?

  • Why does FF save files to desktop, when I have "downloads" checked in options? This is a new issue with the latest version 3.6.3 Windows XP Thanks.

    Why does FF save files to desktop, when I have "downloads" checked in options? This is a new issue with the latest version 3.6.3 . Using Windows XP Driving me nuttier! Thanks.
    (Is is that MicroNetFrame Asst thing?)
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == When I installed latest version

    Thanks for your reply. I appreciate your help.
    It was just a hunch that MircoNetFrame was causing the problem. I disabled it as you suggested, and I still have the problem.
    I just changed under Tools>Options> General - had checked "ask me every time" under downloads, so instead of asking me, FF saved the download to I know not where. It no longer saves it to the desktop, leaving a duplicate in "my documents".
    In windows, I have found unless one knows the entire name of the document, one can never find anything. It isn't listed under recent ''''''__. I can't recall the nomenclature, but the
    capability is ridiculous. So, I don't know where that file I just downloaded is!
    I downloaded a PDF file, but this happens with all DL's. It was so easy to have them all stacked in one place and I could recall
    what I had and when I downloaded it easily.
    Do you have any other suggestions other that going back to the old version of FF, which I would rather not do?
    Thanks again for your time, it is very considerate to help a complete stranger, I must say. Sounds like something I might do! Cheers!
