Satellite A500 keeps waking up every day at the same time

I have recently bought a A500 laptop and installed Linux there. Almost everything works fine, but I have a strange problem with suspending. My laptop wakes up every time at 8.19 am. Recently I even noticed that sometimes it simply turns on after I shut it down the evening before. Everything at the same time, always.
I know that this might seem as a Linux problem, but I had two different Linux systems installed (Gentoo and Ubuntu) and used two different terminal commands. I think this might be something with BIOS (I didn't upgrade it or something, it's all default), but I have checked all the options there and haven't found anything that might be connected to my problem.

You would find the solution here in the forum if you would use the Forum search option!!!
This issue has been discussed a lot of time in different threads
BIOS update is the solution!

Mac Pro turns itself on every day at the same time

My Mac Pro suddenly decided to start turning itself on every day at 6:00:12pm local time (12:00:12AM GMT). It turns on at exactly 12 seconds after 6:00pm every day.
I recently upgraded to OSX 10.5 and installed the point update. It did it before the point update and continues to after the point update.
I have had it since April and it has never done this before. It did NOT do this under 10.4.
I have the options in system settings to NOT wake on LAN event and NOT restart after power failure. It is NOT set to automatically turn on but it is set to automatically turn itself off at 1:00am.
These settings have not changed since 10.4 and I have verified them. No other software has recently been installed since the update to 10.5. I did update the Wacom driver to the new Leopard driver. That is all. I have the Wacom tablet unplugged from the computer.
Any ideas?
Here is the console log from yesterday. It pretty much looks the same every day.

Updates installed by Software Update are "delta" updates - they go from 10.x.y to 10.x.y+1, and are customized for a particular Mac model. It appears that in this case they also patch some files instead of replacing them fully. The "combo" update will update 10.x.anything to the latest 10.x.y, it'll update any Mac model, and in this case it appears they contain full files instead of patches. The delta updater for 10.5.1 is about 39 MB; the combo updater is about 110 MB. You can download the combo updater from the Support site. Sites such as www.macfixit.com often recommend installing the combo updater instead of, or after, the delta updater, as it often solves mysterious problems. One specific example is the numerous "SUID" messages when doing a "repair permissions" - the combo update gets rid of all but one, and that one is specifically stated by Apple to be okay. Of course, no guarantees, but the combo updater is a reasonable thing to try.

How do you keep two users logged in at the same time?

How do I keep two users logged in at the same time to be able to access home sharing?

Fast User Switching in Users & Groups or Accounts preferences in Login Options.

I am doing two people's jobs and I need to use two separate log-ins on the same website. How can I keep both log-ins open at the same time. Everytime I switch tabs I have to log in again.

If i have a home full of Apple TV's and Airport Express' can i airplay music in every room at the same time?

If i have a home full of Apple TV's and Airport Express' can i airplay music in every room at the same time?
Or just one device(room) at a time?
It seems there is a lot of home theater systems where they all hook up to one "control" and then disperse to the different locations per instructions..
Is this possible with all apple products?

From iTunes using Multiple Speakers (you can control with the Remote app on iPhone/iPad too), but not from AppleTV itself.

FF Nightly 34.0a1 keeps updating every day to the same version?!

Ive noticed a few things this last week..
1. first, FF Nightly (the 64bit version) has updated itself to the same version number every day for the last week..
2. Video play using FF is terrible.
3. nightly looses my privacy settings..
4. Some websites say the browser has cookies turned off when they are turned on.
5. Can't even access some websites due to their spam content, I.e. They trying to force me to watch an advert, befor moving on to the item I clicked on.
6. Some pages only load partially.
7. Facebook and farmville loading dead slow. I could send the info faster with morse code and a straight key.
any ideas?

This is about Firefox Nightly builds adding support for new security features.
A lot of web servers haven't implemented these yet and thus aren't working properly.
That is the risk that you run with using alpha development builds as those versions are meant for testers to check for issues with such new features.
You should stay with the current release version (Fx 32 has been released) if you aren't experienced enough to handle possible issues.

Receiving upgrade prompt every day for the same version

I am receiving a prompt in Creative Cloud to upgrade Photoshop CC. Every day. To the same version.
What gives? Is it not upgrading properly? Is this a known bug?
thanks,
John

… aaand the prompt returns again today. For the same version that (should be) installed.
Not being facetious, really am curious: Does anyone at Adobe monitor these forums? Or is this a user-support / sharing form?
thanks,
John

Why am I getting updates every day to the same three apps?

For the past week, each day I log in to the internet on my iMac (OS 10.8.5), my Creative Cloud app notifies me that updates are available to the same three apps: Photoshop CC, InDesign CS6, and InDesign CC. (Each day, I duly authorize the updates, and they are reported successfully installed.) Is this because there are actually new changes each day to these applications? Or is Creative Cloud app not recognizing that previous changes have already been made?

Thanks for your thoughts on this issue. I do NOT use any type of system
optimization utilities. Here are a few more details about my situation,
including the results of using an alternative admin user.
In looking at the "what's new" details provided for each application
"needing" an update in the CC app (on my iMac), I notice that the version
of the Photoshop CC update is 14.2, the same as the version of PS CC on my
computer. But for Illustrator CC, the update version is 17.1.0, the version
according to the Finder "Info" is 17.0.0, but when I actually open
Illustrator CC and check "About Illustrator", version 17.1.0 is indicated.
Now I'm really confused! It looks like the version information visible to
the Finder, at least, isn't being changed during the update process. Could
this indicate where the problem is?
Looking under "info" in the Finder for the Adobe applications, I notice
that the "Owner" of all the Adobe applicationsPS CC, ID CC, etc.is
"root (0)", the "Group" is "admin (80)". Many, but not all, of non-Adobe
applications on my iMac have the "Owner" as "harryhull (502)", "Group" as
"admin (80)". Could this have any bearing on the issue?
In the CC app, under Preferences>Apps, I have chosen "[Macintosh
HD]/Applications", which is where all these, and my non-Adobe, applications
reside.
OK, when I use an alternative admin user account and then I log in to CC,
ALL the Adobe applications are shown as up to date. Under the CC app's
Preferences for Apps, I left location as "default location". When I check
Finder "Info" for Illustrator CC, it still shows as v. 17.0.0. When I log
out of that user and back in to my normal user account, the CC app shows
the same apps as needing updates.
Any further thoughts?

MacBook Pro 15" Late 2013 freeze every hour at the same time

Everything was ok for 4 month. A month ago I've start experiencing freezes 1-2 a day and now it became worse, every hour. I've try to repair disk permissions, repair disk. Does anyone know how to fix this issue?
I read in one of the website that some people fixed this issue updating ssd firmware. But I'm not sure where to get firmware for my ssd.

Sorry I missed that.
This is what I think is happening:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4878
There are two options, keep the Time Machine HDD connected full time or turn Time Machine off and on only when you want to make the backup.
Ciao.

Snow leopard freezing every hour at the same time

Hi all,
I've been having freezing problems with my macbook pro. I'm running 10.6.4 and have noticed that every hour to the exact minute, my computer will be unresponsive for approximately 30 seconds to a minute, and then returns back to normal.
The time that it freezes will vary from day to day, ie some days it will freeze at 7 minutes past the hour all day, other days it will freeze at 19 minutes past the hour every hour.
This has only been happening for possibly the last month, and I have no idea what is the cause. I've used console to see if get any error messages, but nothing is coming up. I'm not using time machine. I've tried restoring disk permissions.
I'm not sure whether this is a macbook pro related thing or a snow leopard related problem so excuse me for posting this in both forums.
Please help!

You're likely to need it, sooner or later. If you suspect hardware problems, for example, the +Apple Hardware Test+ on it is tailored to your Mac's hardware. If you can't find it, AppleCare will send you a replacement for a nominal charge.
If the file system on your HD is ok, and the hang occurs at exactly 60-minute intervals, then it must be related to some periodic process running on your Mac.
I'd have expected another message in your logs. There may be something that doesn't show in Console's +All Messages+ selection.
In the Console sidebar, select your system.log file; it's the first one shown in the Files folder. The I/O message should be there; confirm that they occur every hour, and see what other messages are near it in time. Again, if theres's anything dire-sounding, copy and post here.
Also open the various folders, looking for one or more named HangReporter. If you find any, look inside. Each process that generated a log there will be named in the sidebar, along with the date & time. That may provide a clue (please don't copy a whole log here; just the beginning page or so).

How to auto download a link with MP3 every week on the same time?

Hi all,
i found this website where weekly the radiostation that i listen to,
posts the jazz show in mp3 format.
The name of the link stays the same, is there a possibility on a mac or iphone, to weekly automatically save the content of that link, in a folder on my desktop?
iv'e tried automator, but i dont succeed.
Here by an example of the link.
http://download.streampower.be/vrt/radio1/11_11ctwo-snip_med.mp3
Please can somebody help me?
Kind Regards
K

Copy ALL of this into a plain text editor:
#! /bin/bash
#replace everthing after 'curl' and before '>' with the url you want to use
curl http://download.streampower.be/vrt/radio1/11_11ctwo-snip_med.mp3 > ~/Desktop/"$(date)".mp3
Save it on your desktop as 'MP3_weekly_download'.
In terminal, paste
chmod 755 ~/Desktop/MP3_weekly_download
then press 'return' on your keyboard.
Test the script by double clicking on it on the desktop. It should open a Terminal window with a progress meter, and you should see the file in the link appear on your desktop with a timestamp as part of the filename.
⦿ If it doesn't work, you either didn't do one of the steps above correctly or copying the text above introduced some invisible return characters. If that's the case, open the text editor again and delete all the space between the lines, then put them back in by hitting the return key.
Once you've got the script running all you have to do now is schedule it. You can do that in Automator or iCal. If you're not sure how, consult step 4 in this post:

BBC1 Goes black at the same time every day

Hello,
Im a big fan of detective shows and I like to watch Diagnosis Murder on BBC1 at 2:15pm every day but the problem is as soon as the show starts the screen goes completely black and even BBC2 goes black I can still hear sound in the background on both channels though. The only way to get the picture back is for me to navigate to ITV1 and then back to BBC1 and the picture comes back perfectly fine.
The very odd thing is that this happens EVERY day at 2:15pm at the exact moment Diagnosis Murder starts. Ive tried resetting my vision box and leaving it off for a few hours but it keeps doing it.
Could this be a problem with BBC or a glitch in the broadcast signal thats making my box go loopy at 2:15pm every day?
Anyone else had this?. Try it this afternoon

I've noticed this too!! Thought I was going mad, exactly the same problem on the same show. WEIRD!! I've only found one solution, same as you, to switch to another channel and back again seems to solve it.

Disconnecting roughly at the same time every day.

Hi
I hope I have posted this in the right forum.
I have a homehub 5 and I am currently on BT Infinity 2.
Every day between 17:00-17:20 my router disconnects and reboots itself. I've noticed in the Boot section of the Hub's Event Log the words "Watchdog Reset". Is there a problem with my router?
The disconnects happen whether I'm using the internet or not.
Below is an small portion of the HH5 boot log.

I dont have an answer for you unfortunately. But I am experiencing the same kind of problem. Maybe sharing this may help.
Last week I noticed that my router was disconnecting every night at around 9:00pm.
Since last weekend it has changed its routine and now disconnects at around 11:00pm. I have also had the watchdog reset message in the log but only once.
see my post https://community.bt.com/t5/BT-Infinity-Speed-Connection/Night-time-disconnections-and-watchdog-rese...
Around the time of the disconnection, my hub also seems to go back by an hour, and then resets the time to the correct time after NTP sync. see below. Does yours do this?

Also, do you see any of the CWMP messages like the one in my log, happening at around the same time?
I suspect that these CWMP are somehow triggering the disconnections, and it has something to do with the last firmware update that happened mid-January.
Someone suggested that I should perform a factory reset of the hub.
I'm a little reluctant to do so as this turns the openwifi service back on as default, and in the past I have had problems restoring my backed up settings. as the saved config file was corrupted.
I am considering giving the factory reset a go when I have some time at the weekend.
You may want to give it a go also.
Yes, it seems I have the CWMP messages as well.
I have just done a factory reset on my home hub 5 and will keep an eye on it over the next few days.
Thanks for your reply.

Go to Settings/General/Reset - Erase all content and settings. the connecto to iTunes and restore as a New phone. Do not restore any backup. If the problem persists you have a hardware problem. Take it to Apple for exchange.
This assumes that the phone is not hacked or jailbroken. If it is you will have to go elsewhere on the internet for help.

Outlook and owa freezes every day, sometimes at the same time

Hello,
I have very strange problem! 2 users complain that the outlook hangs every day, approximately at the same time. But other 200 users work fine. I can't see any error on the mail servers ( two servers exchange 2010 sp 3 with dag) Outlook can hangs for 15 min
with user, who has mailbox 1,5 Gb and about 3-5 min with user, who has mailbox 150 Mb.
When outlook hangs, owa logon also hangs and then they start working simultaneously.
It doesn't depend on the server where I try to run owa. I tried to move mailbox to new database, but it didn't resolve my problem.
There are no any scheduled tasks on exchange servers at this time. No performans issues. Maybe some problems of connectivity with AD, but I don't see any suspicious event.

Hi,
It sounds like mailbox curroption. I'd suggest you move those two mailboxes to another mailbox database, and then try againt to see if this works.
We may also try New-MailboxRepairRequest. For more information, please refer to:
