Still having super drain with new Micro firm-ware 1

Hi folks,
Had the .0 firmware and got into the habit of removing my headphones after use to avoid the draining problem. After reading the good reviews of . firmware, I downloaded it 2 days ago. Done a disk clean and loaded it on top of existing firm-ware. After leaving the headphones in all day yeserday, the battery went from fully charged to zero, and my second battery has went from fully charged to one bar overnight.
Currently charging both batteries again, but is there anything else I should be doing? Should I be carrying out a re-format with only . installed? (if so, I'll be grateful if you can advise on the best way of doing this.
Many thanks for your help.
Best wishes,
David

I'd definitely try reinstalling, and if that doesn't work, then try reformatting and installing the newest firmware. If you're still experiencing major battery drain issues, I'd contact Creative support (call in for this particular problem... I got no help from the e-mail support). Mine would totally lose power in about 6-8 hours when it wasn't on. I ended up having it RMA'd, and got a replacement. (It only took a few days, too!).
Good luck!

IPad mini with retina still having wifi problems with iOS 8.0.2 - slow or none. Resetting temporarily fixes problem it very annoying. Please fix Apple! Not up to scratch.

iPad mini with retina still having wifi problems with iOS 8.0.2 - slow or none. Resetting temporarily fixes problem it very annoying. Please fix Apple! Not up to scratch.

I Have followed these steps, and tried others, such as resetting all my network settings. At best these only temporarily fix the problem - wifi still becomes slow or stops. I have other Apple devices connecting fine to my airport express. why is my iPad mini not working? Is it related to the fact it is 3G and I don't have a sim card installed? It is the current top of the range model with iOS 8.0.2. I paid over the odds for the best, and it is almost completely redundant. Apple - I'm losing faith. You need to keep the public better informed and fix this problem fast, otherwise I will leave you for good.

Super-drain with firmware 1.11

Ok, it has happened to me too finally.
The facts: I fully recharged my Micro on Wednesday. On Friday night, the battery still had 2 bars left when I switched it off, without pausing or anything, and leaving the earphones in. About 20 hours later, the player wouldn't even switch on, the battery completely dead.
On a sidenote, I put the player on recharge on Saturday night (and btw the recharge screen was showing no bars at all, thus confirming that the battery was completely depleted); this morning, about 0 hours later, the backlight was still on. The light was steady, not glowing, but it's weird anyway because usually it turns off when the player is completely recharged -- and it is anyway, it shows 3 bars now.
I've read in this forum that other people have had the same super-drain issue immediately after upgrading the firmware, and it may be due to a problem in the upgrade itself. I would say that this doesn't apply to my case, anyway, because the firmware had been working properly until last Friday and I had left the earphones plugged in most of the times during power down.
If it happens again I think I'll try deleting the firmware and upgrading it again, but given circumstances I don't think this will be a solution.

Just to make sure you didnt have the alarm set did you?
I agrie i would re-load the firmware and see if that hel
ps.
did you have big drain issuses with other firmwares.

Still getting Javascript error with new version of UIX

I'm facing some problem after changing my UIX framework version (2.2.3030829.1626).
Currently I'm using UIX version (2.2.3030829.1626) . Paging with table is not working with new frame work .
It is giving me javacript error "object doesn't support property or method" when clicking 'Next' .
It's working fine with old version.
We had used proper cabo directory. These files are in sync with the version of the runtime
Here is our finding
I found a error in _updateFormActions() function from MarlinCoreb2.js file.
In this function it is giving error at
if(a8!=a6)
a7.action=a6 line (line # 1841,1842). If I comment out this two lines page is
working properly without any javascript error.
This problem is a bit tricky....
Because it seems to be a problem with the UIX framework that only occurs on some versions of the Internet Explorer. On some version (IE 6.0.2600.0000) it works fine
and it also works on the Mozilla Firefox browser.
Can any one advice on the same?
Thanks in advance

After several repairs, still having heating issue with MacBook Pro (mid '09)

EDIT: this post got removed the first time for not being constructive enough. I've now edited the post.
This is going to be a lengthy post, so bear with me.
2 months ago, I suddenly noticed my MacBook Pro (medio 2009, 15", 4GB RAM, GeForce 9400M) heating up a lot harder than usual. I'm familiar with the heating issues these laptops have, but this wasn't normal. Looking at iStat Pro, I saw my fans almost taking off like an airplane at 5700 rpm, while watching only a livestream on my browser. I know Shockwave Flash takes up quite a chunk of your CPU, but I had never encountered this problem beforehand.
The biggest problem wasn't just the heat or the fans, but the fact that my computer also started reacting rather slowly. Sometimes I'd even get beachballed, or the whole browser stopped responding for half a minute...
So I tried to see if gaming was still an option. Of course not. I had been playing League of Legends for several months without any issues. Whilst playing, I'd kick up my fans manually to about 4000 rpm, and they'd stay there throughout the whole game. Now, when I start up the game, it plays smoothly for the first 2 minutes. After the temperatures rise to a critical level, the fans start spinning up to 5700 rpm, and the whole game plays like a powerpoint presentation.
On a sidenote: it sort of 'lags' every 1-2 seconds, and sometimes, after a long period, the game acts somewhat normal again (20 mins). This game uses wine to run, which isn't the most optimal way. So I tried playing Team Fortress 2, too. Probably even worse results! (but again noticeable 1-2 second interval lags)
Before anyone starts screaming: "Don't use your Mac for gaming!" etc., I wish to point out that these two games had been running perfectly for the past few months/years. Something's definitely wrong.
After looking for some solutions myself, I decided to go to an authorized Apple Service in my city. A few days later, they told me my logic board was broken, and I had to pay almost 700 euros ($ 900-1000) to replace it. So I did. I got it back, but it wasn't fixed. Brought it back in. Got it back a week later: "Your new logic board we got from Apple was already broken, but we hadn't noticed. We put a new one in it. It's fixed." Again, same problem.
We're almost 2 months later and 700 euros poorer, still no result. I've brought it in about 6-7 times now, here's a list of what they've tried so far:
- In total 3 new logic boards
- New MagSafe (because they discovered it was giving too much power too my laptop)
- Fresh re-install
- Replaced RAM
- Checked fans etc. (they do this by default)
- A few tests which proved that it was repaired (but I have my doubts with these tests...)
They told me now that it's fixed, and they basically won't look into it anymore. I must contact Apple myself, if I wasn't satisfied. The tests they performed showed no signs of heating issues. (One of the tests was playing 4 1080p movies at the same time. When I watch a 1080p movie on Youtube, my laptop is taking off like a plane) They ran a stress test all night long, showing no temperatures above 98°C. I got it up to 105°C in a few minutes according to iStat Pro.
They advised me to install Mountain Lion, which would make the issues with "high-performance sites" go away. I haven't seen much improvement, though.
This whole experience has been quite frustrating, especially now that I'm gonna need my laptop for University again. Isn't there anything I can do? I've paid almost 700 euros and missed my laptop for 2 months, without any results.
I've got more information regarding the issues if needed, ask away. I'm getting desperate.
I've been browsing around the support communites, and found that a lot of people are having issues since they upgraded to OS X Lion. Could this be the case? Should I try downgrading to Snow Leopard?
I've also found a few topics on refreshing the cooling pasta on the heatsink. Would they have noticed any problems with this after replacing the Logic Board several times? Or should I check it myself? I'm not too keen on opening up my laptop myself...
Nick.

Thought of buying Parallels? Fusion?
Might want to see if this gets moved to the MacBook Pro forum.
I'd think Windows 8.1 is smart enough (what I use 90% time since the Dev Preview came out couple yrs ago it seems like) to find the driver.

Still having a problem with Themes in imovie hd 6

I am having difficulty placing a Theme segment into the movie timeline. It seems to render then it disappears.
Steps I have taken to remedy this situation:
(1) Checked for conflicting software (plug-in) in QuickTime and iMovie
(2) Created another user alias to check for other software conflicts. I was able to render the theme segment under this new alias so I deleted all log in items from my administrative acct. This fixed a different problem I was having with placing pictures from the Media > Photo into the time line (previously the photos would bounce out as well). However I am still unable to use the Theme segments.
Any Suggestions?
Thanks, Michael

The symptoms you describe are all consistent with a permissions problem. (After rendering a theme, iMovie discovers it doesn't have permission to write to the project and discards the rendered file.) Use the Finder's Get Info command to check permission settings on the iMovie project and the folder containing it. The drive too?
You might want to consider setting the project drive to ignore ownership. (See the checkbox in the Get Info window.)
Long ago iMovie would (rarely) have trouble setting/getting permissions of the project folder. I don't think that's true again, but there have been a couple of reports here that moving the project to another folder helped. You might try creating a new folder on the project drive, set its permission to read and write, and move the project there.

PS: You've upgraded to iMovie 6.0.1?

Anyone NOT having Keyboard problems with newer MBP!

After reading about all the keyboard problems on the newer MBPs, is there anyone NOT having keyboard lockups or dropping letter problems? Looking to purchase a MBP soon but after reading about the many keyboard problems I will probably postpone or decide to get a different machine.

There might be a couple of things to try. You could borrow an external keyboard to use for a while--or even buy a cheap one used, and see if you still have problems or not. If you don't, there's likely a problem with the MBP keyboard itself.
Also, if you have access to an Apple Store, you might be able to make an appointment with the genius bar and get a definite diagnosis. It may be possible to arrange to get in a replacement keyboard at the Apple Store and have them fix it while you wait. Don't know for sure if that would be possible, but it's worth asking. Same with an Apple authorized repair shop--it might be possible to get it fixed without having to send it off.
Good luck!

Still having some problems with my WRT300N v2 router....

For 6 years or so I have been using a Linksys router and been quite happy with it. As such, it was "natural" for me to look for another. Especially since I have seen the user interface of several of routers for port forwarding, and other settings vital to a good solid gaming connection.
When I first setup the router the firmware was it's default (v2.08) and that is just buggy imho, for anyone connecting more than one computer. The biggest hassle was that the wireless connections could not connect to any of the other computers in the LAN. Although they did, after a long wait, get a DHCP address from my separate DHCP server. FORTUNATELY, the new firmware (v2.17) resolved most, if not all of my local connectivity problems.
I still have one major problem though. This is the IP renewal of the WAN address. My ISP wants that updated every 30 to 60 minutes, so the renewal period is 3600 seconds, or 1 hour. What I recall from the RFC on DHCP is that a client is expected to send renewal requests long before the IP address assignment reaches it expiration "moment". If I remember correctly, this is the time interval T2 (T1 being expiration), and by default T2 == T1 * 0.75.
In other words, all DHCP clients (in this case the WAN side of the router) should be requesting a renewal/refresh of the DHCP address at 75% of the lease period - in my case at 45 minutes. After watching closely for the last 4 hours, I see my game clients lose connection on all my computers, and I see the DHCP renewal take place.
Could someone from Linksys verify when the first requests for renewal get sent out? This is instant death in a MORPH if you are trying to do pvp. Absolutely unworkable.
Thank you for your attention and support.
Michael aka rootvg.

Well, after a couple more application crashes on the hour, I swapped my old befw11s4 router in and watched the way it does IP renewal of the WAN IP addresses. Shortly after it reaches the halfway mark, the lease gets renewed.
Anyone notice this behavior with their WRTS300N? No update on DHCP lease til after expiration?

Suddenly having multiple problems with new iTunes

So my iTunes is all messed up and I don't know why.
I recently was given a new PC from my parents, and one of the first things I did was to import my old music library (about 12000 songs on an external hard drive.) When I added the files I kept receiving an error saying that iTunes could not save the library and, sure enough, the next time I opened iTunes there was nothing there. I uninstalled and reinstalled the latest version of itunes in case that was the problem, and after that I couldn't even get it to open, it would always give me a message saying that required files were missing. I have since uninstalled and reinstalled about 5 more times and had no luck.
Most recently i decided to just plug in my iPod and see if my pc would recognize what files were missing on its own. Strangely enough, iTunes opened. Unfortunately it still is unable to save my library. It also says that it cannot read the files on my iPod and that I need to restore its settings, but I would hate to erase it (its a full 160G Classic) just to have itunes be unable to put any files back on it.
If anyone has any idea what is wrong I would greatly appreciate the feedback.

I should add that as of this morning iTunes appears to opening fine and reading my iPod (which is inexplicable because I haven't done anything with it since my 1st post.) iTunes still, however, will not save my library. I keep getting error message {-1450}. Also, every time i open iTunes, I am asked to agree to the user agreement, as if i had just downloaded the program.

STILL having permissions trouble with 7.2 and vista premium.

I thought permissions was supposed be fixed in the 7.1 update?? I downloaded that and i still was having the 'You do not have write access' window when i tried to connect my ipod.
So i waited for the full vista version, 7.2. Which i just downloaded, and i still cannot sync my iPod. Nothing will copy to it. Still getting the permissions dialog.
Im so ****** off that i waited all this time, and it still doesnt work.

Mark, you need to have a bit of patience. No one here gets paid to help; everyone is just a fellow user, helping out as they have time, knowledge and inclination. Reposting multiple times in less than half-hour isn't likely to get you a response more quickly, and it just a bit rude. I know that it's frustrating, but hang in there and with luck someone will offer suggestions within a few hours.
Good luck.

Anyone having Audio Issues with new Mac Mini, new Thunderbolt Display and new Pegasus R4?

I can't listen to the built-in speakers on my brand new Apple thunderbolt monitor to the terrible audio quality. I'm running Mac Lion on a new Mac Mini with a brand new Promise Pegasus R4 - all purchased in January 2012. The entire setup is connected via Thunderbust errh, I mean Thunderbolt.

Hi,
I'm also having an audio problem, which I suspect now is caused by my Thunderbolt display.

IPhone battery drain with new operating system

Still having a problem with Firefox going to "restart a session" even after re-installing Firefox. Keeps giving me "script error" when closing down. How do I fix this?

As stated previously...I have removed and re-installed Firefox, but am still getting "script error" when shutting it down and going to "restore session" when opening. Please advise what to do about this problem. Thank you.

Firefox 21 and Firefox 22 running on Windows 7 have been reported to take a long time to "wake up" from sleep. I realize hibernation is different than sleep, but... this is the closest match for your description.
Some users have reported that this problem is resolved in Firefox 23 (currently in beta). Others have had inconsistent luck with minimizing Firefox before letting Windows sleep and other measures.
Please check out this (very long) thread for more information: [https://support.mozilla.org/questions/961898 browser freezes after resuming from sleep]
Or jump to the part about Firefox 23: https://support.mozilla.org/questions/961898?page=3#answer-457321
The fact that this just started recently suggests perhaps it is related to another program or update, but I don't think anyone has confirmed the exact interaction that causes the problem.

Having Sync Issues with new Apple ID

I was on an apple account with my wife. We're splitting up so I made myself a new Apple ID, installed iTunes on my home computer and logged into it with my new ID and that looks good.
My phone is full of stuff from her account. When I first plugged it into my iTunes it warned me about erasing the phone. I was scared to do so at that point, so I clicked not to do it.
Now I would like to do it, but when I plug in my phone and sync it simply syncs the contacts and nothing happens with the Apps. I can't get it to prompt me to erase the phone again.
In my attempts to fix this I went into iTunes and downloaded a new app. I also went into my phone and changed the iTunes account to my new one.
Now when I try to sync it says this computer is not authorized and I should go to Store -> Authorize. I do that, log in with my Apple ID and it says this computer is already authorized. I then try to sync and it tells me to authorize again. I just bounce back and forth between the two and never get anywhere.
What I want is to have everything use my new account. I don't want any associations to the original account. I want iTunes to erase my phone and start using the iTunes library I have on my home computer, where I will redownload all the apps I want to have on the phone. How can I accomplish this?

Go to settings > iMessage > receive at. And you will see the Apple ID you are using for iMessage. Tap on the ID and you will be prompted to sign out. Tap sign out and toggle iMessage Off. The do the same for FaceTime, meaning go to settings > FaceTime. Tap your Apple ID and sign out. Then toggle FaceTime off.
To toggle both iMessage and FaceTime back on and sign in with your new Apple ID. It may take a few minutes for the ID to be verified by the Apple servers but once it is verified, you are good to go.
