Speaker quality in 17" 2011 model not as good as 2008 model
So having been the owner of an early 2008 model 17" Macbook Pro, I became somewhat accustomed to its ability to faithfully reproduce audio with a crystal clear and full-bodied sound.
Since then, I've picked up the newer 2011 model 17" MBP, and to my dismay have found that while the sound is 'acceptable' it is by no means as good as the earlier non-unibody speakers. In fact, by comparison the low-mid range frequencies really are understated.
So either, I've got dud speakers.. or Apple have skimped on the newer machines.
I suppose it may also have been a design choice, as I suppose everybody has different ideas of what sounds 'good'.
What I'm wondering is.. Can I retrofit my old speakers into the 2011 unibody enclosure? I know not of the internals of these machines, but I suspect they are somewhat different.
Thanks for any advice.
I'd totally forgotten about this until I got a notification that you had replied.
I no longer have this problem.vaguely remember calling up Crucial (who make my second SSD) and they said something about leaving the machine on, but not doing anything on it for 24 hours or something. So it has to stay switched on, not go to sleep (dim your screen though) and don't touch your keyboard or mouse for a full 24 hours... maybe it was a bit longer... maybe it had to be at the login screen (can't remember)... and in this time it will run some automatic repair thing.
It was so long ago I really can't remember the spcifics - but have a hunt around for things to that effect. Or call Apple/Crucial and mention what I've just said, see if it makes any sense to them and get them to advise the exact corect procedure.

Your running into driver issues on this virtual machine because SignalExpress is basically just a GUI for the hardware drivers. Your users wouldn't be able to get SignalExpress to work on a Virtual Machine because the hardware layer communication can't be passed through. If your users need to use SignalExpress they will have to install it locally on their machines.

RAW to Jpeg quality looks fine in Aperture not so good on Web page
I am using the latest version of Aperture with the Retina display. The Raw images look tremendous, after I resize the image and save it to jpeg the image still looks good. When I upload to a web page the image looks horrible. There is a lot of noise and the image over all looks blurred. I open it in Aperture and it looks fine. What is the issue? I have tried the different settings when saving the image and nothing works. I have also saved the image in a tif format and still the same issue. Looks great in aperture not so great on the web. Please help if possible.
Your site is likely re-sampling your file, perhaps because it is too large. Ask the Webmaster what size and quality to make the JPGs, and export to that. There may also be a browser issue.
If you provide some details re: exactly how your are exporting, which site you are using, how the JPG is used, etc., someone here may be able to provide additional guidance -- but this seems to be a Web question, as Aperture -- from what you say -- is working well for you. -
Where can I find a case for MBP early 2008 model
I know the new MBP has nice cases to keep from scratching. I've searched everywhere and can't find a rubber case for the MBP duo 2 core, early 2008 model. Any suggestions. I checked Amazon and Ebay
Actually, most of the cases state:
Fits MacBook Pro (black keys/late-2008 and newer models; not compatible with Retina display models).
At least these state that -> http://www.speckproducts.com/macbook-cases/macbook-pro/macbook-pro-seethru.html.

Edit: Oops, my bad - you've an EARLY 2010.
Maybe try eBay with the search of "Speck cases macbook pro early 2010" will yield something?

Alo, my Macbook pro i7 2 GHz Intel Core i7 (early 2011) will not go to sleep with the power source connected. only enters sleep mode when running on battery. Someone did this happen, and it could solve?
There is no output from that command line? Maybe the pid changed.
I'll repeat what I am trying to find out...
1. You do a pmset -g on the terminal.
2. The output from that pmset should have a line that says "sleep 0 (imposed by n)" where n is some number.
3. The ps ax | grep n is supposed to display what the process associated with n is.
It's the output from step 3 that should indicate what is causing you not to sleep.
But speaking of sleep, that's where I am going. -
I recently purchased a MacBook Air 13.3' late 2008 model. I am looking for a case. Do the cases for the 2011 still fit the 2008 model?
Generally speaking yes, but check the manufacturer's website to be sure.

The specified year 2011 is not the current calendar year 2012 in MM?
Hi,
when I am doing the MIGO transaction i am getting the error like this, The specified year 2011 is not the current calendar year 2012
I gone throught the t coded like: MMPV, MMRV, OMSY, OB52
As per my company, fiscal yerar is v3 (Apr - Mar)
So now i am in posting period 10(Jan)
And my OB52 settings are 1-2011-12-2011-13-2011-16-2011
In OMSY 2012-10-2012-9-2011-12
Here system displays as my fiscal year is 2012 and last FY is 2011.
I can't find out the mistake where it was. As a FI guy I know there is no mistake in FI side.
IN MMRV
Current period 10 - 2012
Previous period 09 - 2012
Last period in last Fy 12 - 2011
When i am trying to chage the last FY in OMSY, it is grayed out. I reveiwed some of the threads and based on that i was removed my Plants in OX18 also.
Pls guide me how to slove this..
Regards,
GamidiiHi,
OMSY cannot be modified because plants are configured with the Company code.
First you need to unmap the plant with company code. Go to OX18 and delete the plants which have been mapped with your company code.
Then change the OMSY period. Once you have changed the period, map the plants with company code in the OX18.
And go to OMWD and assign Valuation grouping code for all the plants as "0001".
Please try it out in Quality server. Thanks.

I have the issue with the speaker quality. I hear noises like the metallic sound. Its very annoying - does somebody has simillar issue?
@mic2mic: That might be, but the only official solution and the only solution we should recommend to people, is to hand it over to an official Nokia care point.
Such non official actions you've done is not okey to talk about in these boards as it is Nokias official discussion sites. - People might get the wrong Idea and start "fixing" their phones themselvs and void the warranty and possibly damage the phone even more.
Even though it might not be the earpice itself, it's still a hardware issue. - And we don't fix hardware issues here. - Nokia care points does.

Nokia 6730 - Poor Speaker Quality
Has anyone experiences poor speaker quality. I have recently obtained a Nokia 6730. It is two months old and now the speaker for ring tones sounds like it is distorted. Almost like they are blown yet the phone's never been used at full volume. In fact the phone is used in the factory "General" or "Silent" settings.
Hi noFan,
When you said sound of voice, are you referring to voice calls? If yes, please note that the quality of the audio that is coming out on the phone is based on the audio frequency that your operator use. If your operator supports "Wideband audio", also known as HD voice, you will have a high definition voice quality. If they are just using the "Voiceband" which is the standard, you will have the normal quality sound for voice calls. -
Why not give more actual 3D model in multisim with elvismx?
In multisim 10.x with elvismx4.0 environment,some componet 3D models take on very simply 3d models.
For example,a lamp appear a two terminal componet,or like a capacitor.
why not give more actual 3D model in multisim with elvismx4.0.3) Inserting the TV image in the After Effects Composition: Whether I do it as a 2D or 3D image, any still or clip that I want to "play" on the television is always in front of the 3D living room model - though I can move a camera inside the room, I can't move any objects it seems.
You are misunderstanding Photoshop Live 3D and overestimating its potential, that's why. Just like any other 3D-ish effect (Shatter, Particular, Form, Card Dance etc.) it is a peek through a window in a 3D world, but not AE's own 3D world. There is no interaction beyond the plug-ins and effects responding to the AE camera. That's all it is. The rest must come from within the effect/ plug-in itself, but in this case it doesn't, because PS 3D by itself is lamer than lame. Anyway, long-standing and well known limitations in AE's "3D". Not all is lost, though. If you can work your way around building a UV pass as explained here, you might be able to stick your content into the scene rather seamlessly, after all. And lucky for you, you can try this for free these days using a PixelBender filter. I'd still recommend the commercial Re:Map because of the quality, though...

Please help! MBP 15" 2011 will not boot at all
Hi,
My 15 inch early (May) mbp 2011 will not start up. Here is what I have observed so far:
1) When power button is pushed (without MagSafe attached) hard drive will spin up and about after 3-5 seconds it will turn off (hard drive spins Down, no further boot process) No chime, no led indicator light in front.
2) When power button is pushed (with MagSafe attached) hard drive spins up, keeps spinning, but no further boot process. Just black screen and spinning hard drive.
3) When attempting SMC reset, fans turn to high, and screen remains black, still no boot)
4) Since mbp fails before booting, PRAM/NRAM resetting is not a possibility. (Tried)
5) I have also removed the battery cable from the logic board, and tried resetting without any luck.
6) I entered CD into optical drive - it "ate" it, but will not eject now. (Tried holding eject/left mouse/control e etc) still nothing.
7) After letting mbp rest for 1 day, it booted fine like nothing happend, worked fine for 1 day, then next morning back to square one. Now 5 days later still nothing.
If anybody has any ideas what could be wrong, or have possible solutions, please don't hesitate.
Thanks in advance, OliverHey there Oliverkehn,
It sounds like your computer is not booting up at all at this point, even after some very thorough troubleshooting you've already done. From the following article, I would use these steps that I don't mention as having been tried just yet:
Troubleshooting: My computer won't turn on
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1367
Note: See Apple Portables: Troubleshooting MagSafe adapters for further troubleshooting with MagSafe adapters.
Disconnect all accessories that are plugged in to the computer, such as a printer, hub, or other mobile device.
If your Mac supports user-installable memory, solid state drive, or hard drive, and you recently installed any of these, make sure they are installed correctly and are compatible with your computer. If possible, reinstall the original memory or drive into the computer to find out if the behavior persists afterwards.

Posting period 002 2011 is not open (MRKO)
Dear experts,
I process Vendor consignment:
1. Goods receipt - 501K
2. Transfer posting - 411K
3. MRKO
On MRKO, I choose Document date and Posting date is: 17.12.2010
Open period in MM: 01/2011 (12/2010)
Now is 02/2011 but I want to post in 17.12.2010
I get this error:
Posting period 002 2011 is not open
Message no. F5201
Diagnosis
Period 002 of fiscal year 2011 is not open for posting for the variant of posting period 2650.
System Response
Processing cannot be continued.
Procedure
The error can have several causes. In order to eliminate the error, proceed as follows:
1. Check whether the posting date was entered correctly. The system determines the posting period by means of the date.
2. Check whether the required posting period is open for posting for the variant of posting period 2650 and account type +. Make sure that the period is open for posting.
To do this, specify a period interval in which the required period for the variant of posting period 2650 and account type + is contained.
You make these settings in Customizing of Financial Accounting (New) under Financial Accounting Global Settings (New) -> Ledgers -> Fiscal Year and Posting Periods - > Posting Periods -> Open and Close Posting Periods.
Plz help!Hi,
If you are sure Open period in MM: 01/2011 (12/2010) & 02/2011 not opened( can be cross checked in MMRV)
As you want post in 12/2010,then use t.code: OB52 and open the 12, 2010 period in Account Types A, K, D,M, S and specially Account Type u201C+u201D which stands for valid for all accounts type and save.

XML File not found for the Container model.cpx

Any Ideas?Hi,
please explicitly "make" the project. One reason for this problem could be that the model.cpx isn't created properly. Select the model project and compile the complete project before deploying it. Sometimes it helps to clear the "class" directory of the project on teh file system before re-compiling

Crystal Reports 2011 not working in windows 2008 server CITRIX
Hi All,
We are using Crystal reports 2011 in windows 2008 server which is CITRIX farm., having crystal reports 2011 runtime in it..
We are using .net applicationton to run the reports.
The crystal reports parameter popup is getting opened. But the calendar icon is not fuctioning ..clicking on the calendar control no pop up appears. no error too..
OK button is not responding. Cancel button too.
Can you please help us why we are facing this issue in CITRIX only. When we are using the same version in desktop, Crystal report is working fine.
Please feel free to ask if required any more details about my problem.
Regards,
Venkat.KIdo's idea is excellent, only addition I'd like to make is the following:
You are trying to run a .NET app. However, CR 2011 does not install any SDKs. So, the directory specified by Ido is not correct. Assuming that by CR 2011 you actually mean "SAP Crystal Reports, Developer Version for Visual Studio .NET", then the directory would be:
C:\Program Files (x86)\SAP BusinessObjects\Crystal Reports for .NET Framework 4.0\Common\Crystal Reports 2011\crystalreportviewers\prompting
If that does not help, use Process Monitor and see what the logs tell you (look for Access Denied messages).
