Satellite A30 turned off automatically

My laptop turned off automatically if I work continously nearly one hour and also top of the cooling fan (on the left side) become hot.
First of all i thought it was the problem of the windows XP home edition. Then I restored the windows XP. But Result is the same.
How can I resolve this problem.
THanks
Thomas

I've found that the fluff build-up makes the laptop fan spin longer and longer. About once every two months I need to clean it out, otherwise my ears hurt from the noise of then fans!
My method: Remove the CPU cover labelled "Warning - Hot"
Remove the silver/copper tape. Remove dust/fluff from in the small gap that's revealed. If this isn't possible, continue:
Remove the four screws in order from 1 to 4, being careful not to drop them inside.
Remove the copper heatsink by lifting the outer edge. You may need to rotate it to free it.
Remove the dust/fluff from the heatsink
Replace the heatsink compound if it's dry
Replace the heatsink in reverse manner to its removal
Tighten the four screws in order from 1 to 4
Replace the silver/copper tape
Replace the cover.

How can I turn off automatic loading of Bridge in PhotoShop CS2?

For the life of me I can not find the way to turn off automatic
startup of bridge in CS2. Please help....

Thanks for the reply. On my computer I am running PSCS2 and InDesign CS4. I went into InDesign Preferences and disabled running scripts. Then I opened PhotoShop, preferences and there was a option to uncheck, automatically start Bridge with PhotoShop. I swear I looked for this option 4 or 5 times and it was not there. Now either I am going looney or disabling the option to run scripts in CS4 did the trick. If any of you are still using CS2 would you confirm that the option is or is not there to disable bridge when starting PSCS2.
I am thankful that you guys have helped me to resolve this. I am still curious as to whether I am going looney....you guys are the best!

Installed itunes on another computer and need to turn off automatic update

I have itunes on my desktop at home and it is set to manually update my songs on my ipod (I have more songs on my 80GB ipod video than on my desktop). I am now traveling with a laptop and just installed itunes on my laptop. itunes won't let you turn off the automatic update setting until you plug your ipod into your computer. I am afraid to plug my laptop into my computer because it will automatically update the music (wipe out all my music on my ipod). Can I somehow turn off automatic update (switch to manual) before I plug my ipod into my laptop? Also, I know there is software that allows you to move the music from the ipod to the laptop, but I don't want to move all that music to the laptop. I want to continue updating my ipod manually on my laptop. Please help. Thanks in advance.

Hi,
If you set the iPod to be manually managed on one computer, that setting will follow the iPod to any other computer you connect it to. However, even if you don't have the iPod set that way, when you connect the iPod to a foreign library, you'll receive an message in iTunes when it recognizes the iPod that the iPod is synced with another library, and you can click 'Cancel' and still get to the iPod's Summary page to put it into manual mode, without it changing any content on the iPod. If it makes you feel better, you can also click Edit and go to Preferences, click the Syncing tab, and select the option to "Disable automatic syncing for iPods & iPhones" prior to connecting your iPod.
Hope this is helpful

How do I turn off automatic sing in Skype?

How do I turn off automatic sing in Skype?
i work with Windows,Mac& ipad..

Hi and welcome to the Skype Community,
On Skype for desktop (Windows, Mac) just use "Sign out" from the "Skype" menu once. This will take you back to the Skype sign in screen. Next time you sign in from there just make sure you have the "Sign me in when Skype starts" checkbox not checked.
On Skype for iPad:
Open the Skype app settings from the iOS settings menu. I think there should be an option to disable automatic sign in.

How do I turn off automatic updates in Adobe Reader 9.3.0?

I don't see any way to turn off automatic updates in this version.

You can use the menu option 'Edit => Preferences => Updater' to adjust how updates are handled. If you have a corporate install, you might not have this option available and then you would need to talk to your System Administrator. If you turn it off, then you will need to manually check for updates since there are always updates to Acrobat/Reader that are needed to block new security threats.

How do I turn off automatic streaming of MP3 audio?

I like to download podcasts directly to my desktop so I can later transfer them to my Sansa media player. Now that I've installed Quicktime podcasts stream and play automatically in my Firefox browser window. What settings do I change to turn off automatic streaming of MP3 audio?

Well, in fact I have the same problem. And by the way, I dislike marketing tricks as proposing that you buy the pro-version of quicktime if you ever want to download mp3-files again (as a right click on the quicktime browser-player does).
I already switched off every file link and stream-related ghismo that points towards quicktime as player, in the quickime control in control panel as wel on any other place I could find.
But the only thing I acchieved is, that IE now starts downloading as soon as I go to a link to an MP3 file and after some time it says "ready".
An firefox stubbornly keeps opening the quicktime player.
I tend to disagree with IE as I can't find any file on my system, with regardless what searching technique.
Is there a way to get things back to normal without uninstalling Quicktime and reinstalling my browsers (wich is useless as Itunes will prompt me to reinstall quicktime)???

Hi,
I am using German OS therefore maybe the items are called differently in English:
1) Go into the main menu
2) Select "Alerts"
3) select the Profile you like to adjust
4) Select App Alerts
5) Select Email
6) You sould see your 3 mail accounts listed
7) Select the one you like to "mute" and you can set everything (sound, LED, vibration etc. individually for this acount)
Hope it helps

Turn off automatic update of Firefox on Gnome 3, Fedora 15

On Fedora 15, using Gnome 3, I am unable to turn off automatic updates for Firefox, I am only able to turn off auto updates for Add-ons and Search Engines.

Possibly you have obtained a modified version of Firefox. Preferences, chrome, js or whatever may have been modified.
If work requires you to develop on certain versions, and you are doing some of that on this computer, why not install multiple copies of Firefox, including the required versions. I trust the required versions will be the currently supported versions; at the moment that is 3.6, 6, 7, 8 or 9
You should ensure you use multiple profiles so each has a unique profile.
For the current problematic firefox 6 do a clean install, deleting the original program files, but not the profile files. (or possibly an additional install in a custom location with a new profile - allowing you to retain the current firefox 6, and a standard firefox 6) Profiles may be cloned/copied if required, bookmark libraries may be accessed from other versions/profiles if necessary, and multiple versions can be run concurrently. ( I talk from a Windows perspective, but it is unlikely Linux is going to differ)

LENOVO G400 TURN OFF AUTOMATICALLY AND NOT LOAD BIOS SETUP

i have a lenovo g400, once i turn on it only the lenovo name appears in the screen and then it turn off automatically and then turn on and turn off again and so on... also I was having problem that my Lenovo G400 laptop did not display Press F2 to Enter Setup during the boot process, and because of this, no amount of hammering the F2 button would allow access to the BIOS. I attempted all of the standard fixes, pulled the battery, held power down for 30 seconds, removed the HDD -- nothing would cause this to appear. i dont know whats the problem of my laptop..please help me to fix it..

hi PRAY2431,
Welcome to the Lenovo Forums.
Can you try to access the BIOS by pressing the OneKey Recovery button.
- Link to picture
If you manage toget in, try prssing F9 to reload factory defaults then press F10 to save and exit (this should reset the hardware configuration of the machine).
If you still can't get into the BIOS and the machine still turns off after POST (lenovo screen) then there's likely a hardware component that's failing. If you have a spare PC, try to create a Lenovo Bootable USB Diagnostics and boot from it by pressing F12.
Alternatively, you can contact Lenovo (for service) or contact one of the Lenovo Authorized Service centers below

Turning off automatic update checks

How do you turn off automatic update checks?
Not only do these pop up on their own even though I have all the 'update' options in iTunes set to manual, but when they do pop up, they do so in a top priority fashion, kicking me out of whatever else I might be doing.
Why can't such updates be done solely when I am going into iTunes?
Thanks

Welcome to AD!
It might not be the updater from iTunes. When you install iTunes, you also get a little program called Apple Software Updater.
You can uninstall that from Control Panel > Add/Remove Programs. You will still be able to go into iTunes and check for updates with it gone.

Laptop turning off automatically

My laptop nc6220 is turning off automatically and its almost impossible to install the window because its turn off automatically in a few seconds kindly guide me about the solution.
Regards

That is an older laptop and is likely just reaching the end of its life. At a minimum it probably needs to be disassembled and checked for heating issues. Quick shutdown is usually caused by the processor overheating. It can also be a bad motherboard.

I have bought iPhone 5 couple of days back and it has turned off automatically. No physical damage or mishandling has been done to the handset

Let it charge for at least 20 minutes.
Do a reset (Hold Sleep/Wake and Home buttons about 10 secs or more till Apple logo appears, ignore the Slide to Power Off that appears)
Note: You will not lose any data.

Hello guys,
my iphone 4 turns off automatically after screen lock, i have to press the POWER + HOME button during 10 secondes for reboot.
And it's like that every time i lock the screen.

Standard troubleshooting steps are reset, restore, restore as new.
Since resetting isn't working, try backing up and restoring through iTunes.
