Problems with the first USB port

Hi,
I'm having a problem with my 13 inch i5 Macbook Pro
For some reason my first USB port isn't working well, doesn't matter what, i plug in it just won't recognize anything.
But whenever I restart my mac, everything works well, and after about 2~3 days it stopps again and I have to reset or log out my mac again..
I tried to reset the SMC and the PRAM, it didn't work
This is freaking me out, I've never dropped my mac or something. It's not really old bought it in august.
I also upgraded to lion, it didn't work sadly and this problem still exists.
I'm pretty sure some people have this too, this is not an hardware issue, it's a software issue
Does anyone got any idea?
Thanks

    Anything you downloaded with the first Apple Id will forever be tied to it, and will always require it to update.
    The question here is, why did you think you needed to create a new Apple ID? What was the problem with the first one?
    To get rid of th old one, you'll need to delete everything you downloaded with it, and then sign out of the ID in several places around the iPad. 
    Go to Settings->iTunes & App Stores->Apple ID->Sign out.
    Repeat the process, for Facetime, Messages, Mail and any other App you need to sign out of.

    I am not 100% what isn't allowed.. but I am assuming you want to spread the backup across the two disks.. internal TC and 6TB external.. this is not possible.. It has to be one or the other. TC has no way to build a raid JBOD or anything else. Nor would you want to as that is the most likely to fail and kill your data.
    Let me add, backing up 6TB over USB on TC.. will be the most excruciating experience of your life.. cf child birth or passing kidney stones.. large ones.. being the male equivalent.

  • Problem with the Enterprise Manager

    Hi!
    I have a problem with the webbased EM (Port 1811). After restarting emctl I don't have any diagram (e.g. for the cpu usage) in the EM. It seems as if there is no picture...
    Are there any services which collect these information from AIX?
    Any ideas?

  • Getting problem with the new java.util.concurrent package

    i m using the new concurrency package of jdk 1.5 in my code. see the line:
    Executor threadPool = Executors.newCachedThreadPool();
    about this, api doc says Creates a thread pool that creates new threads as needed, but will reuse previously constructed threads when they are available
    but i dont find this method to create new threads whenever required. please tell me about this.
    in my code, in some rare cases many threads r created, and very difficult to detect the number of active threads.
    as the previous one failed i tried with another one newFixedThreadPool(int). but here i got another problem. it works successfully but i dont understand what should be the size of the pool. i tried with 1000, it works well, but in a very rare case, it failed also. then i tried with 10000. but i m still confused, i dont know whether it would work always or not. with traditional threads my code never fails.
    please tell me, what should be the size of the pool and also let me know what is the problem with the first one (newCachedThreadPool)

    The thread pool should not be more than 100 threads. Ideally you should only have a small number of threads per CPU. If your threads are not long running it is possible that you could add 10,000 runnables but on start a small number of threads. Note, adding a thread take a non trivial amount of time so while the thread is added, all the others could finish. This could mean the number of threads could be 140 or smaller.
    Have you looked at the code to see what it does?

  • Display Problem with the Key Figures

    Hi,
    I working on the query where i need to display three Key Figures. I have no problem with the first two Key Figures , but the third Key figure values need to be display by day wise. (0Calday). i.e., the third key figure value should be displayed  based no of days 0Calday has.
    For Example if 0Calday is holding 4 days... then third keyfigure  Value should be display as 4 columns with their respective values by dividing into day wise, remaining first two key figures should not be changed.
    When i am trying to call the 0Calday into the Column, all the three Key Figures values are displaying as many as no of days 0calday has.
    For Example if 0Calday has 2 day....the three Key Figures are values are breaking into two days values and displaying, so totally we can see 6 Key figure values.  But i need first two values should not break but the last key figure should be divide into two days as values and display.
    Thanks & Regards
    Agama.

    Hi Venkat
    This can be achieved by supressing 0 values.
    1) In the Query Designer: Go toquery properties
    2) Select Suppress Zeros
    3) Select option Active
    4) Under Effect On : try with Column or row o (Not infront of system , so cannot exactly remember)
    This will allow you to get the  exact result as per your requirement. We had the same issue and we could resolve this by following this.
    Hope it helps.

  • Problems with the USB Ports

    Hi there,
    I writing this because I'm having some really big problems with my USB ports.
    A few days ago I plugged in an USB-Hub that was quite cheap. Suddenly a window popped up saying that a USB device was deactivated because it "needed" to much power. Since this happening, two of those windows keep popping up everytime I boot the MacBook. I called Apple and got some help: I had to delete some .plist files and clear some caches. The man who helped was able to find the error and deactivate the notification, he also told me to make a PRAM- and a SMC-reset. The man said that it's just a software problem and that I have to reinstall the system if we don't find a solution. So, one day later I reinstalled the system (Lion) and not only didn't it help, the two notification windows were popping up again...everytime I booted the Mac. So I decided to formate the whole hard drive and install Snow Leopard -> still the problem with the USB ports. After that I installed Lion  -> still the problem with the USB ports. I even tried to extract the .kext files that are important for the USB functionality from an earlier Combo Update, but it didn't help either. The point is, that the Mac doesn't recognize my external hard drive or any of my iDevices. Sometimes it recognizes USB sticks, but only after 20 seconds. The data transfer on both USB ports is also very slow. If I'm lucky and Mac recognizes one of my USB sticks, it takes like an hour for 1GB to be transfered on the USB stick or from the USB sticks to the Mac.
    I really don't know what to do and need help, especially because my backup data is on my external hard drive which I can't access because of this problem.
    I really hope that someone can help me, I'm very thankful for every answer that could help me!
    PS: Sorry for my bad English, I hope that everyone understands what I mean, please tell me if you don't get what I'm trying to explain in the text above.
    Sincerely,
    iLoud
    [UPDATE] I downloaded "USB Prober" and copied the Output file, maybe it helps:

    I need advise and help with this problem .
    First , I have been with Mac for many years ( 14 to be exact ) I do have some knowledge and understanding of Apple product .
    At the present time I'm having lots of problems with the router so I was looking in to some info , and come across one web site regarding : port forwarding , IP addresses .
    In my frustration , amongst lots of open web pages tutorials and other useless information , I come across innocent looking link and software to installed called Genieo , which suppose to help with any router .
    Software ask for permission to install , and about 30 % in , my instinct was telling me , there is something not right . I stop installation . Delete everything , look for any
    trace in Spotlight , Library . Nothing could be find .
    Now , every time I open Safari , Firefox or Chrome , it will open in my home page , but when I start looking for something in steed of Google page , there is
    ''search.genieo.com'' page acting like a Google . I try again to get raid of this but I can not find solution .
    With more research , again using genieo.com search eng. there is lots of articles and warnings . From that I learn do not use uninstall software , because doing this will install more things where it come from.
    I do have AppleCare support but its to late to phone them , so maybe there some people with knowledge , how to get this of my computer
    Any help is welcome , English is my learned language , you may notice this , so I'm not that quick with the respond

    Genieo definitely doesn't help with your router. It's just adware, and has no benefit to you at all. They scammed you so that they could display their ads on your computer.
    To remove it, see:

    Do not use the Genieo uninstaller!

    so is there anyone know  how to solved it?

  • Problem with the USB-connection after upgrade to P...

    Hello to everybody!
    After upgrading PC-suite, I can't establish a USB-connection with the phone.
    Here are the facts:
    1) My phone is the E90. Latest software installed (300.34.84)
    2) PC-Suite version 7.0.9.2 english. I also tried the greek version, same problem with it also.
    3) Nokia Connectivity Cable Driver 7.0.2.1. I also installed manually a previous version of the driver (7.0.2.0), but this didn't solve the problem.
    4) I didn't have any problem with the older version of PC-suite.
    5) I don't have a problem with the cable because the data-transfer-mode works fine.
    6) Prior to any installation attempt, I always first uninstalled PC-suite and Cable-driver manually with the windows-xp uninstall program. This was not the fact, only in my first attempt, where I upgraded the pc-suite from inside the program itself.
    Please help, because I can't backup and this is very important for me!
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Thank you all for your suggestions but nothing of the above worked for me.
    After of hours and hours of installing and uninstalling of several versions of the pc-suite I solved the problem as following:
    1) Uninstall manually (windows - control panel - add/remove programs)Nokia-PC-Suite, Nokia Connectivity Cable Driver AND PC Connectivity Solution!
    2) Restart PC
    3) Download and install the new version of Nokia-PC-Suite.
    The tricky part is that you have to uninstall the application called "PC Connectivity Solution" manually and since the title of the application dosn't include the Nokia-Name you have first to find out that this program is Nokia-related!
    Once again, thanks to everybody who took the time to make suggestions and especially to cricfancy who made me aware of the fact that PC Connectivity Solution is a nokia application!
    Finally, I would like to make a statement for Nokia:
    People, if you are not sure about an update then keep it in beta and don't make it available to the public!!! I lost hours and hours on search and made countless installs and uninstalls to find out what was wrong. Under the line, I had made no mistakes in my update from the start and the whole problem was based on your software! This is not acceptable!

  • Is anyone else experiencing problems with the thunderbolt port on their Mac Mini's regarding using it to connect a second monitor? I've got the Mini Display Port to DVI-D adapter along with a DVI-D cable and I can't get an image on the second monitor.

    I had an dual display image / setup working twice for a few seconds, but then it cut out. I think there may be a problem with the thunderbolt port.

    As far as I can tell you have only listed that you have a DVI monitor connected to the Mini Displayport socket (i.e. the Thunderbolt socket) via presumably the Apple Mini Displayport to DVI adapter and a DVI to DVI cable.
    You don't appear to have listed what the second monitor is and how it is connected (even though not working). As such I cannot tell what may be wrong.

  • 2 Problems with the Ipad Air...midi keyboard and usb microphone

    IN SHORT:
    2 Problems with the Ipad Air...what midi keyboard will connect to the lightning camera connector and what microphone as well?  There seems to be issues with the ipad air not being able to power them.  Has anyone got any devices to work yet?
    IN DEPTH:
    I have a yeti microphone that when I plug in it says its using too much power.  A little samsung go mic I have plugs in find and works but isnt quite what im looking for.  My midi keyboard is not reading...its probably 15yrs old (didnt expect it to work).  I have ordered a usb powered keyboard but im now nervous it may not work if it requires too much power.  Has anyone had any success with a particular model of keybaord?  I saw a youtube video of the CME Xkey in which it was plugged into an ipad that uses the lightning jack, but was unsure if it was the air or a different model.
    Any help is appreciated on this...I love my ipad air and hoping to make it my fully functional music recording device.
    By the way I mostly use garageband

    hey mate
    Yes what I ended up doing is buying a powered usb hub.  They are about 10 dollars or so on amazon.com.   There are tons to choose from.  I use a yeti micrphone now with no issues and a midi keyboard.  You will need the lightning usb adapter too.  You plug the lightning adapter into the ipad and the hub into the adapter then plug all your accessories into the powered hub.  So it works well you just gotta buy an extra piece of equipment.

    DFU Mode and restore again, if it doesn't work, well then...I suggest you try using a custom firmware maker (sn0wbreeze), NOT for the jailbreak, just to try and fix your phone.

  • Purchased 2 iphone 5's.  Both have cracked the screen in the first week.  Never had this problem with the previous versions iphones being so fragile.

    I purchased 2 iphone 5's.  One for my husband and one for me.  Both have cracked the screen in the first week. I even have a case on mine. Never had this problem with the previous versions iphones being so fragile.  Has anyone else experienced this?

    Tests by some of the web sites and magazines claim that the iPhone 5 is in fact more rugged than previous models. That doesn't obviate the possibility of an assembly defect that would make yours more susceptible to damage, but if you dropped or impacted them and they cracked, then your warranty will not apply and you'll have to pay for replacement, either the AppleCare+ "deductible", if you purchased AppleCare+ with your iPhone, or Apple's normal out-of-warranty replacement charge.
    You can of course make an appointment at an Apple Store, explain the situation, and hope that there's something they can do for you. Don't count on it, though.
