New update = frozen cpu

I just downloaded and installed the latest update for my computer (9/18/13). Now why does my mid-2007 MacBook Pro freezes whenever I turn it on?

Then, all I can suggest is to boot into recovery mode and reinstall the OS. That might put you back to the version of ML that you originally installed. Since yours is an '07 model, I suspect it came with Leopard or Snow Leopard. Reinstalling that would be painful. Alternatively, restore the bootable backup/clone or Time Machine backup of your previous installation.

  • New bios for T420 Updated the CPU microcode

    Hi,
    Bios 1.46
    (New) Updated the CPU microcode.
    (Fix) Corrected the help message for enabling the microphone in the BIOS Setup.
    The CPU microcode update: It will support Ivy Bridge?
    Thanks
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Ivy and Sandy are compatible? I don't think so...
    Maybe they just increased or blocked the amount of allowed CPU models.
    I guess Mark has to step in and explain

    RealPlayer can cause conflicts with Flash Player because it tries to assign EVERY TYPE of video or audio file to itself by default. I haven't used RealPlayer in years for that reason. It's an unnecessary program anymore. There are apps loike VLC media player that cna do EVERYTHING it does without conflicting with other apps like Flash Player.
    With WIndows 8, Microsoft began embedding FlashPlayer themselves into Internet Explorer. Because of that, you cannot download and install it from here. You cannot uninstall it from Internet Explorer without removing a specific Windows Update first. And you cannot update it via this website. ONLY through Windows Update can Flash Player for Internet Explorer be updated.
    That said, you probably DON'T have a virus that's causing the problems with Flash Player and Internet Explorer. Many, many websites are not "recognizing" the browser.
    This is a known problem with Internet Explorer 11, which Microsoft has been aware of since October 18 when they released IE11 The pages can't recognize the browser, so they don't recognize any of the plugins, like Flash Player.
    So far, Microsoft has made NO indication that they have any plan to fix it soon.
    Microsoft's recommendation is to use Compatibility View for affected pages, and "pretend" you're using an different browser. Trouble with that is it has seen limited success at best, and you have to individually enable it for EVERY page that has problems.
    I'm not big on "pretending" so I recommend actually using another browser.
    Firefox (from Mozilla)
    Opera (from Opera)
    Safari (from Apple)
    Chrome (from Google)
    ANY of those will work where IE11 won't, with the Flash Player Plug-in (For all other browsers), and Chrome doesn't even need that because it has its own Flash Player plugin built in.

  • New Bios Update. X220, X220i, X220 Tablet, X220i Version 1.39 Updated the CPU microcode

    Hi,
    What does Updated the CPU microcode mean, and how it improve performance or what kind of effect does this change have?
    Thanks
    X220, IPS, Intel Core i7-2620m, 8 gb, Samsung 840 pro 256 gb, eGPU + Zotac AMP GeForce GTX 670.

    Well, first off, sorry to inform you, but in case you haven't noticed, the BIOS update does not solve the jumpy touchpad issue.  In my opinion we are going to see some board swaps probably related to both the touchpad and CPU throttling issues, though I hope I am wrong.
    Secondly, I haven't really noticed that, but then again, my power consumption has always been pretty spotty from day one.  I'm not sure if it's USB devices to blame or possibly even Google Chrome, but I have been monitoring the possible culprits and haven't really reached any definitive conclusions.
    You might try the following from a command prompt:
    powercfg -energy
    This will produce a report about power consumption after monitoring your laptop's idling over a 60-second period.

  • After update my ipad 4 to ios 6.0.1 itunes still tell me that there is a new update

    Today I bought a new ipad, 4. generation with retina display! Eveything works fine, great display, fast cpu!
    A little problem remains after the update to IOS 6.0.1 - itunes still tell me, that there is a new update! I dit it
    3 times- and checked after each - the update was installed correctly.
    Can anybody help?

    Reboot the computer, and reboot the ipad by pressing and holding the home and sleep/wake buttons at the same time until the apple logo appears on the screen, then let go.

  • 10.4.9 update and CPU usage up %20, even during idle

    I experienced a general slowdown except with file transfers. I am about to give up and rollback to 10.4.8.

    I rolled back to 10.4.8 (because all my problems appeared in 10.4.9) and everything speeded up and CPU dropped to under %9 while I type this. I no longer have to type a few words and wait for them to appear. I installed all my third party stuff except Norton antivirus and sidetrack. Any new update is 10.5 so ...
    400Mhz Cpu can easily be taxed.
    I never had a performance hit with apple updates since the beginning of OX. In fact when I moved from Puma to Jaguar, I experienced the same speedup as a processor upgrade earlier, 300mhz to 500mhz!

    You could try disabling hardware acceleration. If you are unable to access the setting in Options > Advanced > General, you could change the setting for "layers.acceleration.disabled" to true in the prefs.js file in the profile.

  • My phone will not restart after updating it today with the new update provided by apple. My carrier is verizon

    What do I need to do to fix this problem. I tried to install this new update and now my phone is frozen with the white apple symbol on a black screen and doesn't do anything

    Updates cannot be uninstalled.
    Put the device in DFU mode (google it) and restore via iTunes.

  • I tunes doesnt work since new update. shows in processes but no window displays.

    Running windows 7 premium(it is a legit copy). it seems to me that every itunes update that i do,seems to make itunes NOT work on my computer. the only way for me to get it to work is to litterally reboot windows 7 on to my computer....ive dont this 4 times in the last 6 to 12 months. have to reset my computer completly just to get one file to work. im not doing that this time. i know its not my computer cuz everything runs perfect on my cpu but itunes. i dont care what update it is, this has always been my issue for as long as i can remember . i will click to run as administrator, i tried to netsh ....blah blah reset. i update my computer to all the new updates. i downloaded quicktime i did everything i can find on this support page as possible. im just getting tired of this. my computer will show as if its opening itunes and nothing comes up. ill sart task manager go to process and it shows as if itunes is running. but no window will show. to make things even more frustrating maybe 1 out 10 tries..literally 1 in 10 trys itunes will appear....after i have given up and just do my own thing itunes appears after an hour or so but just freezes. ... any one else having trouble like this or has solved this problem?
    im tired of spending 2 hours to reboot my system and have to get my computer reset and another 2 hours to update and put all my files back on and even if i get itunes t owork i hate sitting here for another hour putting all my music in ths system and another hour for it to be uploaded to my ipod.....
    itunes do your self a favor have your people that work on all itune updates, all so fine tune the windows version update!

    i think i figured it out.. these are the steps i took to getting itunes to work.
    1. uninstall all things apple and itune related items off the computer
          http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1925 (use this file to find all items needing to be deleted and erased from      recycling bin.) (also make sure you do this just as you turn your computer on this way you wont have to worry about exe. files that may not be allowed to delete.)
    2. http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2363 (take these step and instead of deleting just one delete all the files you want no trace of itunes or apple on computer this includes quicktime)
    3.(this step may not be necessary but defrag and disk clean up "C:/" defrager and disk clean up, when using disk cleanup clean all files so check everything off.
    4. Now restart your computer once all files have been cleared and recycle bin has been empty.
    5. before downloading any itunes go to E internet explore not mozilla or any other internet service just use E. go to tools. advance tabs scroll down this list to security. uncheck the box that says (check for server certificate revocation*)
    6.check to make sure in this same location that (use ssl 3.0) and (use tls 1.0) ARE checked.
    7. Mozilla fire fox maybe a better internet service than E its self. so if your using mozilla sorry dont. download itunes from E and do not save just run. install like necessary. when installing i turned off allow automated updates..  let it install.
    Try it it out now. i hope this worked for you as it did for me!!!
    2 day and some many hours trolling and looking for answered even called apple services for help and rthey kept sending me the same files ive read thousands of times.. so this like i said this is what i did mixing everything ive read together and it worked.

  • Firefox will not open after new update; Error: Platform version '1.9.2.13' is not compatible

    After accepting the new update I got this error message when trying to restart Firefox:
    XULRunner
    Error: Platform version ‘1.9.2.13’ is not compatible with
    minVersion >= 1.9.2.14
    maxVersion <= 1.9.2.14
    I have tried:
    - Opening in Safe Mode; same error
    - Uninstalling, deleting remaining info in C>ProgramFiles>MozillaFirefox folder, and reinstalling.
    - Updating Avast antivirus in case that was interfering.
    Now when I try to start Firefox I get this message;
    Firefox is already running, but is not responding. To open a new window, you must first close the existing Firefox process, or restart your system.
    But there is nothing happening in the Windows Task Manager. Please, somebody save me from Windows Internet Explorer!!

    I experienced this error updating from Firefox 3.6.13 to 3.6.14 and resolved it by doing a 'clean' install' as described. It occurred again in updating from 3.6.14 to 3.6.15 and this time a clean install failed to rectify it. (Anyway, I don't want to have to go through this every time.)
    Work-around: Shut down Firefox. Edit application.ini (typically "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\application.ini")
    [Gecko]
    MinVersion=1.9.2.15
    Change to 1.9.2.13
    Save. Start Firefox. Dirty? Yes. Works? Yes.
    (Gecko is the forerunner or XULrunner)

  • I keep being asked to update my Safari but when I do a Software update it scans but never gives me a list and just says no new updates. Help please!

    I keep being asked to update my Safari but when I do a Software update it scans but never gives me a list and just says no new updates. Help please!

    There are no updates to either OS 10.5.8 or Safari 5.0.6.
    If you need a later version of Safari you must first upgrade your operating system to a later version of OS X.

    For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
    The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it, which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down page in case one of them applies.
    Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there is backup and recovery advice elsewhere in the user tip.

  • After trying to install the new update, I am getting a message from Windows saying that an MC file is missing, reintall Itunes-which I have now done 3 times. How do I fix this?

    I received the new update from Itunes and after installing, I couldnt get into my Itunes.  I get a message from Windows saying that an MC file is missing and  to reinstall I tunes.  I have reinstalled 3 times, the first time I didn't remove the old version, I installed the update over it.  Next I tried the repair function under Control Panel.  After that, I uninstalled Itunes and reinstalled again from the website.  I still get the same message about missing files from Windows.
