Quicktime 7.1.1 update fixes whine?

I have a Week 11 MacBook Pro (15.4" 1.83GHz) that had the CPU whine. I strayed away from the Keyboard & Mouse Update and used the Mirror.widget start-and-close trick to remove the whine. Once the whine was gone, it would not start up unless I ran the camera again, or until I rebooted.
After installing the Quicktime update (out since a couple of days ago), I haven't noticed any CPU whine.
Is this it? Is this the software update that repairs one of the most nagging problems of the MacBook Pro line?
I'm tempted to try installing the Keyboard & Mouse update now to see what'll happen.

Though I don't think you're lying, you may be experiencing something that happens to many of us.
For SOME reason, I don't know what, after I receive Apple Updates computer noises diminish somewhat for a short period of time. I have lost my screen inverter whine and processor whine to many updates, for it to come back days later. Some other people have reported improvements after some updates too.
It may have to do with the updates requiring "restarts" you know when you restart and it takes an exceptionally long time to reboot? Maybe something is being reset that decreases our noise symptoms, but reappears after repeated use.
I don't know the answer, all I know is that I'm still happy with my MBP, I wouldn't trade it for any other computer, but when they have a permanent solution for all of the problems, I'll be right there in line with everyone else to get them fixed!

  • Quicktime 7.1.5 Update Fixes Color Profile Bug

    You'll be glad to know that the latest Quicktime update, 7.1.5, that was released yesterday fixes the bug that prevented iPhoto 6.0.5 from importing or using/editing image files that did not have a color profile embedded in them.
    However, users using Photoshop or Photoshop Elements should still set those applications to manage and embed an RGB profile in files so that when printing prints or ordering books/prints/calendars/cards ordered thru Apple they will have an accurate color rendition of what you see on the screen.
    Do you Twango?
    G5 Dual Core 2GHz, 2G RAM, 250G HD; G4 Dual 1Ghz, 1.5G RAM, 80G HD, QT 7.1.3,   Mac OS X (10.4.8)   22 LCD, 250G/200G/160G FW HDs, Canon: SD700IS/i850/LIDE 50, Epson R200, 30G iPod

    Yes it is. I ran several files thru PS, removing the profile, and they imported into iPhoto OK. I just ran another test (no profile in the files, edited in PS and saved w/o profile, iPhoto set to not embed a profile) and it worked as advertised. The files were editable by iPhoto and viewable in the full screen mode.
    Interesting in that the resulting modified file ended up with a profile embedded even though iPhoto was set not to. Haven't figured that one out yet.
    The bottom line is that it works as advertised.

  • Here is a solution to the Quicktime 7.1.5 Update conflicts - it works!

    Any program that is having a problem since the Quicktime 7.1.5 Update should benefit from reverting back to QT version 7.1.3 . My TurboTax works again, because I downgraded to QT 7.1.3 .
    You can't manually remove all of the files necessary to uninstall QT 7.1.5. Don't even try.
    Don't uninstall and re-install your programs. It is a waste of time, and will not fix the problem.
    You can choose to re-install the operating system, and it should work. It is not necessary, though, and is a hassle.
    This is how you can easily downgrade QuickTime 7.1.5 to version 7.1.3:
    1. Download Quicktime 7.1.3 installer:
    http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/quicktime713formac.html
    2. Mount the installer package (Double click QuickTimeInstallerX.dmg so that it opens and shows the open box icon labeled QuickTime713.pkg). This is very important.
    3. Download and install Pacifist from this location:
    http://www.charlessoft.com/
    4. Open Pacifist (You can do so without going through the registration process. You can do that later if you decide to pay.)
    5. Drag the QuickTime713.pkg icon to the Pacifist dialog box. When you release it, another window opens with a list of files. The top file is labeled "Contents of QuickTime713.pkg."
    (Please note that if you mistakenly select the unmounted .dmg file into Pacifist instead of the .pkg, there will be an installation but without an effect. )
    6. Click to highlight "Contents of QuickTime713.pkg."
    7. Go to the "File" Menu in the Menu Bar and choose "Install Files to Default Locations" from the pulldown menu.
    A dialog box will open asking if you want to install entire contents. THIS IS EXACTLY WHAT YOU WANT TO DO.
    8. Be sure to check the box that says "Use Administrator Privileges" if it is not already checked.
    9. Click "Install" and carefully read any further instructions as they pop up. You will respond with the equivalent of YES every time, even if asked to replace every file for QuickTime. Take your time, and don't assume that you know what the instructions say without reading them.
    10. When the install process is finished, restart the computer. You are through with Pacifist, so don't open it again (unles you decide to Register and pay).
    11. Once again, open QuickTimeInstallerX.dmg. Double click QuickTime713.pkg to do a normal installation one more time. After the install is done, restart your Mac one last time. That's it.
    By the way - NEVER keep your tax return data file in the same folder as the TurboTax application. You might accidentally delete it when uninstalling TurboTax. Put it in a folder with your other tax prep documents.
    It took me approximately one hour from the time I started downloading QT 7.1.3 and Pacifist until I was completely finished and using TurboTax again. I have a 400 Mz PowerPC Sawtooth G4, so your time may be better. Good luck!
    Oh, and don't forget to pay for Pacifist. They deserve it!

  • EFI Update Fixes XP Performance ... Even with X1900

    Before installing Windows XP in my Mac Pro via Boot Camp, I just wanted to make certain that the recent EFI firmware update fixes all the issues, including for Mac Pros with the X1900 video card.
    Thanks,
    Clark

    Making it easier, and better support, and eliminating known issues; but, ALL the issues is a tall order.
    Also, it is probably a lot easier to skip the BootCamp partition and just throw another small drive in.

  • Verizon iPhone 5 Update Fixes Cellular Use on WiFi Bug

    If you have been seeing higher cellular data usage while you are on WiFi, good news, Verizon has fixed this bug.  All you need to do is update your Carrier Settings to 13.1 and the bug is fixed.
    For directions on how to update your Carrier Settings, see:
    Verizon iPhone 5 Update Fixes Cellular Data Use on WiFi Bug - EVDOinfo.com
    Be interesting to see if this fixes the issues for all those having the problem

    I have the exact same problem!
    I'm using the iPhone 5 now under Carrier M1 Singapore 13.0 and I have noted that over a period of 2 weeks, my cellular data usage has been about 2.7GB on an average. Since I know my bill has been capped at 3GB, I have since switched off my cellular data.
    However, when I switched it on for a few days after using it for awhile, my cellular usage jumped by 1.2GB in just 1 day! And I used it as I would on an average day (like during an average day in the 2 weeks)!
    I understand that there have been reports of a bug that have caused this problem in the US.

    http://www.iphonehacks.com/2012/10/iphone-5-cellular-data-usage-over-wifi-bug-on -other-carriers.html
    But I'm hoping that there's a solution for those living in Singapore? Do I seek the help from my carrier as well? But if it's a problem with the phone, then my carrier definitely would not help, right?

  • MS Office 2008 Update: fixes some print issues?

    I noticed the first update for Office 2008 is out, and one "fix" they list for Word is:
    Blank pages are no longer printed when you print to a high resolution printer. This update fixes an issue in Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard that causes blank pages to print when you print to a high resolution printer.
    I know people have struggled with Samsung and other printers and Word since Leopard released. I do not have one of the affected printers so cannot test it.
    The updater is here:

  • After updating iOS on my iPod touch 4th gen my Philips speaker dock DC290B/37 no longer charges the iPod.  It will play music but not charge, is there anyway to find out if Apple is working on an update/fix?

    after updating iOS on my iPod touch 4th gen my Philips speaker dock DC290B/37 no longer charges the iPod.  It will play music but not charge, is there anyway to find out if Apple is working on an update/fix?

    Try:
    - Reset the dock
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost      
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Reset all settings                 
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup. See:                                               
    iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.                       
    Otherwise you are out of luck. Apple is not making any more update for the 4G.
    Also check with Phillips. Maybe they have an firmware update available

    I downloaded QuickTime 7.x security update (recommended by my VP), but I cannot run. I am getting the message 'Unknown Publisher', but when I click run, nothing happens?

    Hello,
    Seems someone from Apple corrected the problem.
    I just downloaded a new version, again, due to upgrade to a larger HDD, and the new installer does have Apple name identified.
    So try it again.
    Good luck.

  • Is there any API to update Fixed Asset minor category ?

    Hi,
    My client need to update the minor category of 3000 Assets.
    Is there any API to mass update Fixed Asset minor category ?
    Thanks,
    Joe

    Hi Joe,
    You could use the reclass API : FA_RECLASS_PUB.DO_RECLASS
    Based on the new minor category, derive the correct asset category and pass it to this API along with other required parameters.

    So to be clear, this issue occurs on any input with the Denon Receiver.  Occurs from both HDMI out and MiniDisplay Port out.  Goes away when we reinstall the OS and update it to 10.9.2.  Comes back as soon as we update to 10.9.3.

    Have you been able to use the Mac Mini directly attached to the plasma/LCD/projector with out going through the Denon AVR? Even with 10.9.3 installed?
    I have a Pioneer AVR and I have the Mac attached via a HDMI to HDMI and all is working for me. Can your Denon do some upscaling? Some AVR, like my VSX-53 can change the scaling of the input video. Meaning if I still had my Apple TV 2 which outputs 720P only, can be upscaled in my AVR to 1080i or 1080P or even 24fps. Heck, I could even plug in an old style Red, White, Yellow cable and upscale it to 1080P and output it HDMI.
    I am wondering if your Denon is able to do that and it might be set wrong. Check the owners manual for such settings. Even the plasma/LCD/project could be doing the upscaling too. So check that too.

  • Did the iTunes update fix the BSOD problem?

    iTunes was crashing this morning (with that C++ runtime error that several others were complaining about). I updated iTunes and it fixed the problem.
    Does anyone know if this update fixed the "Logitech Web Cam causing the BSOD when syncing iPhone on to a Dell Computer" error?
    I only ask because now when I sync my iPhone, windows recognizes it as an iPhone now, and not a Camera anymore. I just wanna know if I can reinstall my WebCam Driver again.
    Is there somewhere that lists what kind of fixes were in the last update?
    Thank you

    No it did not. There are no iPhone enhancements or fixes in 7.3.1
    It fixes an itunes library problem on the desktop or laptop that is all, and does not effect anything related to the iPhone.

    Depreciation terms are applicable to the entire asset (not for individual transactions). If you want to have different terms, you may create the additions as Sub-asset (Tcode AS11) to the main asset and enter depreciation terms.
