One month old Aluminum Macbook...

I've had it for about a month now and I've had to reset the SMU twice--the first time due to issues coming out of sleep (screen turns blank but computer is still on), and the second time because iSight was not recognized (did not show up under USB in System Profiler).
Do I have some sort of hardware issue? I don't think it's normal to have to regularly reset the SMU?
Thanks

I don't think anyone here will be able to definitively determine that you have a hardware fault from your description of two issues. If you're concerned, I would call AppleCare Support the next time you have an issue. Make sure your problem gets a case number and keep track of the people you talked to and the date(s)/time(s). If you continue to have odd issues then you can build a case with AppleCare Support to get your MacBook in for repair or replacement.
Personally, I think you've encountered two issues that could happen due to various reasons and they may have not been connected at all. Besides the trackpad update, there haven't been any Mac OS X updates to address general issues that everyone might be experiencing with their new MacBooks. So, I wouldn't worry about it too much but keep your software up-to-date an call AppleCare Support when you have a problem so it gets recorded.

  • One month old macbook pro got hang(freeze) once, and kernel panic once: should i need to take some actions or its ok??

    my macbook pro 13.3 (OS XLion 10.7.4) is one month old, few days ago  it got freezed(hanged) at that time only 2 apps were running google chrome and xcode, i pressed power button (hold it for few seconds) to restrat.
    Today when i opened the lid(as my mac was on sleep for last one hour- no apps except finder was running) i saw an error like this "mac encountered an error hold your power button for few seconds to restart......blah blah..something in other languages too", i think some where it used the word "kernel panic". 
    After restart mac said "your computer restarted because of a reason", below i have copy pasted the reason.
    Please suggest me its(this behavior is) okie or should i take it to apple center?, also to note i have never played any game on my mac. Can any body suggest me why this kernel panic happened by seeing the reason below.
    Now i am afraid to leave my mac at sleep with unsaved data and that was the exact reason i shifted from windows to mac.

  • I had a brand new Mac book pro one month old and the hard drive died. Right before it died I was down loading pictures off a memory card and now they aren't on my memory card! They are wedding pictures I took for a friend and irreplaceable! Please help!!

    I had a one month old Mac book pro and the hard drive fried! I was down loading a friends wedding pictures when it stopped working and started heating up. I plugged it in and turned it off as it was making a clicking noise. When I turned it back on the was a grey box with a question mark and nothing else. When I took my memory card out the pictures were gone. I took it back to best buy where I bought it and they said it was dead, needed a new hard drive and all my info is lost! Is there any way to get back those irreplaceable wedding pictures?

    There are some data recovery programs (software). I would look into that for the images on the card. When files are deleted, the files are still there, just the headers are removed. That being said, a format of the card or new files written to the card can overwrite deleted files.
    The physical hard drive could be thousands of dollars to forensically save, with no guarantee.

  • HT1349 MY IPHONE 4 THAT IS ONE MONTH OLD IS SENDING MULTIPLE REPEAT TEXT MESSAGES AND EVERYONE I KNOW IS ANNOYED WITH ME, IVE READ THIS IS AN ONGOING PROBLEM, DOES ANYONE KNOW IF THAT IS TRUE OR IF THERE IS A WAY TO FIX IT? I CAN NOT SEEM TO GET AN ANSWER

    My iphone 4 is about a month old ad it continues to send multiple repeat texts message to the point where I have stop sending texts because everyone is annoyed with me, is there a solution that anyone knows of? I am hearing from sprint that it is apple's issue and from apple it is a sprint issue. They said I can take it to the store but its one month old and I find it hard to beleive that they do not have an easier solutions, i dont have time to or the patience to give up my phone for three days. This can't be right correct? If anyone has founf a solution I would really appreciate some help as Im sure you can hear I am frustrated.
    thank you

    It is a sprint issue and other carriers have that same problem. I get multiple copies of texts from other carriers all the time to my iphone. It isn't the iphone, it is the carrier sending the text message several times because they haven't received and ack message from the recepient.

  • Replacement iphone(hardly one month old phone) is a new one or refurbished ?

    Replacement iphone(hardly one month old phone) is a new one or refurbished ?
    I am facing lot of issues with my iphone 3gs.Please i request you guys dont buy any apple products here.its waste.I bought my iphone one moth back when i use GPRS(internet ) on my phone .it will shut down and gets heated.Went to imagine(Authorised apple service center)they said will replace the phone when i went to collect the phone they said it a new one when i check the connector it was having all dust in it.WHEN I ASKED THEN AGAIN THEY SAY ITS  A NEW PRODUCT.HOW COME A NEW PRODUCT HAS DUST COLLECTED IN CONNECTOR DOCK.
    Replace the phone with a brand new phone.

    There should be no way to tell.  The dealer/store shouldn't know either.  It should be good as new.
    The warranty clearly states that it can be a refurb unit.  You have no say in the matter.

  • How do I set Mail to only download one-month old emails?

    Hello there
    I have been a Mac user since 2008 but I have never actually used the default Mail client. I always used third-party applications but since most applications on Yosemite perform really well, I decided to give Mail a shot. The only problem I am facing right now is finding a setting to have Mail only download one-month old emails rather than the whole inbox? I have three accounts (Two on GMAIL and one on Hotmail) and of course they contain thousands and thousands of emails and it will take a very, very long time to download all of them since my internet is pretty slow (2MB), so I was wondering if that option is available? It'd be fantastic. It's available on Android and iOS AFAIK so I assumed maybe it's an option on Mac too?
    Thank you for your time.
    Regards,
    Tarek Elsakka

    If you have gmail (Google Mail), one idea is to "label" all the mail you want to in the gmail web interface and then just download mail with a certain label. Take a look at the article at http://gmailblog.blogspot.com/2013/12/download-copy-of-your-gmail-and-google.htm l
    Does that help?

    One of the jacks is for audio in and the other is for audio out. Some select versions have an S/PD/F jack. Chances are the reason you are getting static is that if you plug an earphone into a microphone jack it will attempt to behave as a microphone. It will not operate properly.
    So..a recap. There is only one earphone jack

  • I have a single Pixel that is broke on my 2 month old retina macbook pro. I have Apple care. What will Happen if I bring it to an apple store.

    I have a single Pixel that is broke on my 2 month old retina macbook pro. I have Apple care. What will Happen if I bring it to an apple store.

    You can try to see if they will replace it, however there is some sort of acceptable amount of stuck pixels and they won't replace so I hear.
    But that was a long time ago and things change.

  • One Month Old Imac Display Bleached out

    The Imac is one month old, base model upgraded to 8Gb RAM. Not running anything too heavy. Recently the display became 'bleached out', for example I cannot see the black lines between columns on the Finder, and the icons seems washed out. in addition I cannot connect a second display as when I press detect displays, none are detected. I have done the usual resets and run an online hard ware test, nothing has changed and the ahrdware is running normally apparently. Have you any sugegstions please as to how to return things back to normal?
    Thanks
    Mike
    PS also recalibrated the monitor but again no change

    Hi
    I had the same problem and found the answer here :
    https://discussions.apple.com/thread/602429?start=0&tstart=0
    Which suggested this :
    System Preferences > Universal Access > Seeing > look near the bottom, there should be a Contrast adjustment slide, all the way left is normal...
    Worked great for me - not sure how it was adjusted in the first place, but all is well now.

  • My I pod touch 5th one month old wont charge. Its on charger for 2 days but battery does not move from red sign?

    My I pod touch 5th one month old wont charge. Its on charger for 2 days but battery does not move from red sign?

    Try the remaining items of:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • I restored my iphone from a backup that is about one month old (because all my contacts had disappeared). Is it possible to retrieve the text messages that occurred after that back up. They disappeared after the restore.

    I restored my iphone from a backup that is about one month old (because all my contacts had disappeared). Is it possible to retrieve the text messages that occurred after that back up. They disappeared after the restore.

    I don't know if I'm on the same page as you.
    But if you backed up the phone with those contacts pictures notes etc, you should get them back.
    After restoring your phone, use the back up that done when you had those contacts messages etc??

    I had the similar situation before. There are two ways.
    1. Just email the customer service people about your situation, and they will tell you how to recover your iTunes data.
    2. This is what they told me. Check your menu in iTunes, where it shows an option something like "Download/retrieve purchased items".
    Hope this helps.

  • Exchange 2007 - Selecting New Message Pulls Up One Months Old

    I'm using a fully patched copy of Leopard connected to a fully patched copy of Exchange 2007 via OS X's Mail app. For the second time in a week or two I've received a new message in my inbox. However, when I double click it, what gets opened is some other message that's months old. If I go over to my Windows machine and look at my Exchange Inbox via Outlook the message pulls up as I'd expect. So, there seems to be some index corruption inside OS X Mail. Any ideas?

    No problem Just checking. You can go to settings > icloud > backup and storage > manage storage > click on the backup you no longer need and choose delete backup.  If you delete this backup, your current iCloud storage will not be deleted.
