This is probably old but...

Alright so i've gotten a new white macbook (MA700) and I am now experiencing the 'whine' that so many people have complained about. This is my 3rd macbook i've tried (the 1st was coming apart and the 2nd one the fan sounded like it was rattling apart no matter how fast it was going and now I am onto this whine problem).
Is there an easy fix/stopgap? It seems to only happen while plugged in, it just started after about a week's usage, and it cuts in and out as I turn apps on or off (i.e. as the load on the CPU changes).
Any suggestions please?

As far as I know yes, is there any easy way to check? I downloaded the latest one apple released and it said it could not be applied to my computer.

  • This is probably useless, but I'll try anyway. My iPhone5 got drenched in water, is there any way saving it without having to buy another phone?

    Take it to the Apple Store
    Confess the error of your ways with the soaking of your iPhone
    Ask them to check it out
    They will charge you $229

  • This is probably impossible but....

    I have a server that streams internet radio from WMAs using a
    standard ASX format for the playlist. Switching to streaming MP3s
    is not an option.
    I would like to make a flash player which people can embed in
    myspace ect and also use as a desktop app via Air.
    My question is this, is there any way to capture the ASX
    stream and play it within a Flash movie?
    Thanks for any advice.

    Hi John
    interesting...  I had seen that field many times and it never clicked. 
    What is odd is that I had posted about this and my work around in several blogs, and a couple of well known couple LR experts had commented my work around was probably a good approach given LR limitations.  
    As I think through this, I wonder if it is a matter of the list of choices from Adobe that made several of us think they meant something else. 
    "Unknown" does not seem to fit if "I know that I have not filed for registration"; would have been nice to have a little more granularity or clarity as in "Registration Pending" as a choice, but it comes down to semantics.
    Certainly your workflow approach works, and probably will start using this approach, while hoping that Adobe will give me one more choice !!
    Thanks again.

    Hi,
    When you are happy with your track, all you have to do is click 'Bounce', this can be found on the top menu bar at the very right side of the screen. There is also a little button under the master track that says something like 'bnce' or something like that. Clicking this will then give you a window with a load of options of what you want to bounce your track as, just select your preferences and click 'bounce' at the bottom, and that's it!
    Hope this helps
    Cheers

  • This is probably an overscan problem, but..

    Hey guys/girls,
    I'm a fairly new video (80gb) iPod owner and I have some questions about tv output.
    I've been trying to output some subtitled avi files to my television, and the subtitles are getting cut off on the sides and some on the bottom.
    The best result I got was cropping a 16:9 format .h264 640x352 file with 14 pixels on the top and bottom, then all of the subs were visible, but the characters were stretched and squatty (as expected, since I do not have a 16:9 television).
    The video files in question are in 640x480 resolution divx format, and if displayed using another media player on the television (such as one for the ps2 or xbox media center), they display fine with subtitles intact.
    The fact that they are getting "blown up" over the screen size of the tv, even at 640x480 tells me that this is probably an overscan problem, but does anyone have any suggestions on how to get these videos to display properly on my tv?
    My next thought was to try cropping the sides of a 16:9 format to make things look closer to 4:3 with borders on all sides, as that would be preferable to having the subtitles cut off.
    Thanks in advance

    hi, yeh i had the same problem as u, it would say that the usb is unknown, and yeh it is because u are using the wrong cable.
    i had tried, for instance dwnloading the driver n stuff, eventually i found out it was because its the wrong cable, u see i had a previous cable for an old nokia phone, and i mistakly used that instead of the new one. once i plugged in the new cable although they both luked the same, it wrked. u sud luk up the type of cable ur phone takes.
    hope this helps.

    Activation issues are almost always the result of a device that has been hacked or jailbroken. If that is the case, no support can be provided here.

    I'm looking for some help connecting linksys IP Cameras to my home network to monitor my property when I'm travelling.  I used to do this with linksys WAPS, but since I've discarded all my old linksys networking and standardized on airport, I can't get these things working.  I know that I have to identify my camera through the DHCP table and set up port forwarding and there is the problem. 
    My network consists of 4  base stations set up in a roaming network - same network name and passwords.  I need to do it this way so I don't have to switch network when I move from one side of the house to the other, go to the cabana, or my shop in the barn.  The network works pretty well since I went to a roaming set up.  Good performance, yata, yata, yata.
    However, the roaming network requires the AEBS's to be set up in bridge mode, rather than sharing an ip address.  When the AEBS is set to  bridge mode, you don't see a DCHP table or have the ability to identify your IP Cam through the AEBS - and hence, no port forwarding. 
    I am able to identify and set up my Linksys IP Cam by locating the ip address on my FIOS router, even though, it's plugged into an AEBS.  I set it up, see the video, remove the ethernet cable from the IP Cam, restart - and I can't get to it from an AEBS.  In researching this, it appears, I should be setting up the AEBS to "share an IP Address", going to the DHCP table and identifying the camera's IP address and setting up port forwarding.  However, you don't see any of the DHCP or port forwarding options in Airport Network Utility when configuring in bridge mode. 
    I'm hoping I'm missing something here and that the solution isn't to set it up at the FIOS router level, but I'm beginning to think that's my only hope.  What concerns me there is that I should be able to see the IP cam on the network without port forwarding since I'm not coming from outside, and I can't even do this unless it's connected hard wire.
    I'd appreciate any insight into this that anyone might have.  I've hit the wall with what I know.
    Thanks.

    In a roaming network, your "main" router is the device that would require port mapping/forwarding to be configured in order to access the IP camera from the Internet. This router is also the one that would be provide the private IP address for the camera which you will want to be a static one.
    So as you described your network, the IP cameras should be getting an IP address or you assigned it a static one and this is the address that you would enter in the Private IP address (or equivalent depending on the router used) field when setting up port mapping.
    If you are not able to access this camera from the local network, then this should be troubleshot first.

  • 2007 iMac freezes up, rainbow wheel appears when this happens. I know the computer is starting to get old but I can't afford a new one at this time and would love to continue using my Mac, but it's frustrating. Would a fresh install or OS upgrade resolve?

    My circa 2007 iMac freezes up, and rainbow wheel appears when this happens. I know the computer is starting to get old but I can't afford a new one at this time and would love to continue using my Mac, but it's frustrating. Most of the time I ONLY have 1 thing open at a time, and keep my tabs down to a minimum. I bought this to do film editing on but with it acting like this I cannot do that. I know I need a ram upgrade (currently running 2 gb) and my OS is old, 10.5.8, but I think even with it being a bit outdated it should run better than this. Would a fresh install or OS upgrade resolve this? Or any other suggestions to keep this clunker chugging along for a little while longer?

    How full is the hard drive?
    Do you run any virus software or hard drive "cleaner" software like MacKeeper?
    If your model is from 2007 you can install up to 6 GBs of RAM.
    2 GBs is the barest of minimum RAM for OS X to run on.
    Especially if doing video work. You simply do not have sufficient RAM.
    Also OS X 10.5.8 Leopard support ended around 2009.
    You could update to OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard, at least.
    It is available on disc from the Apple store for U.S. $19.99.
    I Would seriously upgrade your iMac's RAM to the max. 6 GBs before doing this.
    Reliable Mac RAM can be purchase from online Mac RAM source Crucial memory or OWC ( also known as macsales).

  • My apple wireless keyboard is just over a year old, but I find that delete ( backspace ) button no longer functions, has anyone else experienced this problem, do I need to have it looked at by an apple technician ?

    My apple wireless keyboard is just over a year old, but Ifind the delete ( spacebar ) button does not function, does any one know if this is a common fault, do I need to have an apple technician to take a look at it?

    It appears to be out of date so far as the warranty is concerned.  There may have been some minor detritus slipped down the side of the key.  See if you can find a buush with stiff but fine hair.   Perhaps a toothbrush.  Then brush around the key.   It is possible to remove the key if you are very careful and that would make it easier but you have to be very careful.   You are sure there hasn't been any liquid spilt; even the smallest amount can cause a drama..

  • I'm trying to back up 10.6.8 (snow leopard) and all my files before upgrade to Mavericks.  I have an old but sturdy external hard drive...how many GB available will I probably need to back up the whole thing? thanks!

    You will need a separate partition unless you plan to use the entire drive. You will need an amount of space somewhat larger than the total space now used on your startup drive. If you select the startup drive's Desktop icon, then press COMMAND-I to open the Get Info window. Used space will be shown in the topmost panel. Add a GB or two to that number to determine how much space you'll need for the backup.
    Do not backup on a drive that has any files you want to keep. You can make a bootable backup as follows:
    Clone using Restore Option of Disk Utility
      1. Open Disk Utility in the Utilities folder.
      2. Select the destination volume from the left side list.
      3. Click on the Restore tab in the DU main window.
      4. Select the destination volume from the left side list and drag
           it to the Destination entry field.
      5. Select the source volume from the left side list and drag it to
          the Source entry field.
      6. Double-check you got it right, then click on the Restore button.
    Destination means the external backup drive. Source means the internal startup drive.

  • This is probably a dumb question, but I can't find an answer. How do I make the text on my calendar larger so I can actually read it when I print it out?

    This is probably a dumb question, but I can't find an answer. How do I make the text on my calendar larger so I can actually read it when I print it out? I am using a MacBook.

    Press "Command P" and when the Print dialogue box comes up, towards the bottom there is an option allowing you to choose the text size, i.e: small, med, large.

    This is probably a stupid question, but what does the red circle with a number in it mean on iCal? It looks just like the emails notification. I do not have anything do or up in my cal.

    Actually, another person on the "more like this" had the right answer. It meant I had a notification for an invite that I needed to respond to.
