Toshiba E55 exausts heat from rear, is this bad?

The heat heats up the screen allot. Is this bad? Would a laptop cooler help?

I see it's just odd the exaust lands on the screen. I've bought those little clear rubber riser pads you get at target or wallmart. I hope this allows it to "breath" more and keep the screen bottome center from getting hot. I actually preffer th exause to left not the rear. At least it wont touch anything.
Also, when I remove the cover to change the ram(add) can you clean the fans out?

Is it possible to install a 160 GB Toshiba slim-fit HDD from an iPod Classic 2009 model into a iPod 5th Gen Late-2006 model that originally had a 30 GB Toshiba drive?

Is it possible to install a 160 GB Toshiba slim-fit HDD from an iPod Classic 2009 model into a iPod 5th Gen Late-2006 model that originally had a 30 GB Toshiba drive?
I have had my 30 GB iPod video for about 7 years, it was a gift and has served me well. Unfortunately it was in my pocket when I brushed up against a very powerful magnet which latched onto the unit and scrambled the hardware. Sad iPod icon.
I was told I probably need to replace the HD in order to get it back to working order. What I am wondering is, would I be able to replace it with a larger capacity drive so long as I got a unit that was slim enough to fit into the casing?

Have you tried resetting the PRAM? http://gigaom.com/2011/07/26/when-to-reset-your-macs-pram-and-smc/
Which Windows version are you trying to install? If I remember right, you can't use windows 8 on these older machines.
Other than that it's hard to say what could have gone wrong. I can only suggest going through the steps again carefully and making sure everything worked the way it should.

unable to bootup after Yosemite install. have to keep shutting down from rear button. it does come on after a few times but then hangs at user login again. If you get in it is great. Seems faster than Mavericks but there is some sort of issue, bootup /login.

Knock on wood, this seems to have been my problem as well. I stumbled on this thread after dealing with this ridiculously-long boot times for the past several weeks.
I just reinstalled McAfee Antivirus and my Macbook Air booted up in less than 1 minute. No more hanging on the boot-up progress bar. No more hanging after I click on my user's avatar on the log-in screen. Bootup would often take 5+ minutes and sometimes never complete.
This has been SUPREMELY frustrating.
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR POSTING YOUR RESPONSE!!!

Heat from front of iMac

I know this is an unusual question, but it has been driving me nuts for some time.
As I sit in front of my 20 inch iMac iSight my face (and hands) can feel the heat being given off by the front of the computer. I know that some heat is likely, but my face actually turns red after a while, as if it is sunburned.
Has anyone else had this experience?
Thanks for your responses.
iMac iSight 20 inch Mac OS X (10.4.5)

el:
Hottest-do you mean hot to the touch or warmer than other places?
The iSight runs relatively cool compared to the first model. Not only cooler but the fans do not rev up as high. The upper left quadrant of the iSight is going to be warmer than other places because that is where the heat from the processor is exhausting. But it should not be hot. I have my computer on all day and that part is warm. I can place my hand there and keep it there all day and it will still stay warm. It should not be hot. Also, it's a little warmer just above the Apple logo. If your computer is hot-hot, then there is something wrong.
I don't know what you mean by hot.

My MG5220 won't print an original 3 page document from rear tray.

I have only recently had trouble printing original documents from rear tray. I have completed maintenance ( cleaning), checked paper media, etc. I have checked page set-up, etc. I think I am overlooking something that is obvious but I can't see the forest for the trees. Please advise. Thanks!

Hi Kashmie,
To try and resolve the issue, with a flashlight or other bright light, please check the paper feed area of the printer and verify that there are no paper jams or obstructions in the printer that may be causing the paper not to feed. Once this has been done, please look inside of the printer where the inks are located and ensure that there are no obstructions in there that may be causing the print head not to move freely. Next, please remove and reseat all of the ink tanks in the printer. Once all of these steps have been performed, if you still experience difficulty, please call or email us at one of the methods on the Contact Us page for further assistance.

How to start the Toshiba Ghost image files from the HDD

Hello
Ok this is a tough one but hopefully some tech/wizz can help me out.
I have all the necessary CD Recovery disc but my Toshiba laptop CDRom has died and i'm looking for replacement at the moment.
I have managed to copy the image files and all the other info from these CD's onto the laptop hard drive via a network from my desktop cdrom. I did try to use the desktop cdrom to boot the 2.5" laptop drive but it knew it wasnt a toshiba laptop so wouldn't let me recovery.
However now I have manage to copy all the ghost image files onto the laptop hdd I'm stuck on how to run installation via dos.
The laptop hdd is formatted and all i have are the following files
span.bmp
setenv.bat --------> batch file contains following lines
@ECHO OFF
SET GHOSTPAR=
SET SWN=01237000
SET EXT=GHO
SET VOLLABEL=%SWN%
SET FILENAME=%SWN%.%EXT%
01237001.GHS------> PART 2 OF IMAGE
01237000.GHO -----> GHOST IMAGE MAIN
01237000.CRC
A folder called G_INST
which contains 3 extra folders BMP, DOS and TOOLS and span.bmp
I cant figure out how i can run ghost to extract and recovery my HDD can someone help me :)
Thanks in advance
Simon

Im really skeptical if you will be start the Toshiba ghost image files from the second partition without using the Symantec Norton Ghost software.
I have created a ghost image of the C partition and placed it on the D partition.
To recover the C partition I have to start the Ghost Utility and have to use the image file .gho from D partition
I have googled a little bit and found the useful instruction how to recover the Portege M3500 without using an CD/DVD drive. Maybe this will run also on the Sat A30.

By the way: the internal, compatible ODD can be ordered from the ASP in your country!

Soft sound from rear speakers while playing mov

Hi,?Gaming and music is done via all speakers (i'm using analogue connection) just fine, but when i play a movie (using powerdvd 6?deluxe) i get faint sounds from the rear speakers. I had contact with creative's help desk in my country and we ran thru all system settings (e.g. thnx console). Everything was configured correctly., tho still a weak sound from rear speakers. They could not help me further ?I'm using a x-fi fatality soundcard with a logitech z-5400 speakerset.
When running a movie it shows a logo near the system tray : dolby digital. I am hoping one of u has a solution to this problem. Greetz,?Nask

In most of the cases, movies with mutichannel soundtrack do not use constantly every speakers. I think your case is normal and that's only your DVD's mix (as many DVD) that concentrates more on the front. try some of the sample there: http://www.digital-digest.com/dvd/do...s/trailers.phpIf the first one sound at the same level for each speakers then it's alright.

Can the heat from my computer hurt my battery?

Hi I just had a second battery put into my almost 4 year old macbook. The 1st replacement was put in last June I believe. I had it replaced again a few days ago because it would die out within 20 minutes and the computer wouldn't go to sleep it would just shut off. So I'm trying to keep this new battery healthy for as long as possible. What I was wondering was if the heat from the computer running can hurt my battery in the long run. The bottom of my computer is pretty much always hot. It is currently at 150 degrees F. I downloaded smcFanControl to increase the fan speed on my computer in hopes it would keep it cooler. I wanted to know if there was anything else I could do for it. Also how frequently should I cycle through my battery?
Thanks,
Kristina

" The bottom of my computer is pretty much always hot. It is currently at 150 degrees F."
On what sort of surface is your computer on? If it is on a flat hard surface, the temperature of your computer is too hot, and there's something wrong.

Thinkpad X120e - SO MUCH heat from bottom of the laptop

I Bought my new Leonovo Thinkpad X120e 10 days back. I get excessive heat from bottom of my laptop. I am unable to keep the laptop on my LAP for more than 5mins.. its so much heat. I am also getting heat from left side of the laptop. I think its from the heat ventilator. I installed TPFAN control software to look for temperatures. The CPU temp reads between 53 to 67 degree C.
I took my laptop to a local lenovo service provider and he replaced he replaced Thermal module FRU 04W1380.. I thought the problem would be okay. But the same heat from bottom of the laptop and from side. The most annoying thing is the heat from bottom. I preferred small laptop as I can keep it on my lap and work for few hours. I am very disspointed with the heat. Can someone help me to solve this issue or is it normal that X120e dissipates heat from bottom of the laptop?

http://www.notebookcheck.net/Lenovo-ThinkPad-X120e-Laptop-Review.56445.0.html
An outside temperature of 33 degreees C (91 F) is normal, according to Notebookcheck. That's at load. At idle, it says the x120e should hit 28 degress C (82 F).
It also says that processor temperature gets up to 90 degres C (194 F). Your processor temperature is well within normal.
28 to 33 degrees C is warm, but I'll bet my old x100e has you beat. Notebookcheck records the old x100e as reaching 61 degrees C (142 F) on the underside! I mean, it's no longer a matter of warm jeans and a red spot on my legs. The thing gets so hot I could turn it upside down and cook an egg.
Check to see that your AMD processor is downclocking itself properly in the Power Manager settings. If your x120e is clocked up to maximum performance settings, it's going to run as hot as it can. If you dial it back, it'll run cooler and you'll save some battery life.

Why no sound from rear speakers (Xfi X

Vista 32bit, CMSS enabled, why no sound from rear speakers with music? XP no problem at all, only in Vista. Using latest drivers (v2.5.0004).
I realize I'm hoping against hope to get a useful answer at the Creative forums, but I do believe in miracles and the odd one happening once or twice in a lifetime, lol.

Well, I think I have an answer, from Catherina-CL's Audio in Windows Vista post. 2.The Vista audio architecture changes the way per-stream audio processing works, which required us to write new software to support this
Issues that may be encountered:
CMSS no longer works on audio streams from the OS.
Status:
Features based on Windows XP architecture must be rewritten to conform to the new Vista architecture, and we have a team of software engineers, project managers and testers dedicated to this task in order to provide our customers the same seamless audio experience under Windows Vista that they enjoyed under Windows XP. However, I found a somewhat crappy solution, at least with my old Altec Lansing 4 speaker/ subwoofer system. Unplug the surround cable from your subwoofer (unplugging it from the card itself has no effect). That at least will make all the speakers work, even if it's not true surround. Good for listening to music loud.

No sound from rear speakers

I have an hp pavilion a6863w running Win7. I can't get any sound from my rear surounds and I can't find any speaker adjustments. With Vista you could adjust for room configuration and everything. Is that in Win7 hidden somewhere? I have looked everywhere I can think.
This question was solved.

Hi:
Perhaps you should download and install the latest RealTek HD audio driver for your PC directly from RealTek. This driver may allow you to have more options to configure your audio output than you currently have.

Accept the agreement, download and install the first one on the list.

How to make stereo sound play also from rear speakers on X-

X-Fi is excellent card. Just one question though (CMSS 3D disabled, 5. speakers set correctly): when I play stereo file (like MP3) the sound comes only from front speakers. Well it's logical of course but my old Audigy duplicated the sound also to rear speakers (the center speaker wasn't used) - so is it posible also on X-Fi to play stereo music from rear speakers too without enabling CMSS?

Actually I just found out that this CMSS3D is VERY good way to expand stereo to 5. (although it's not what I originally meant) - so no need to reply me but I'll welcome any opinions anyway.

I just restored my 13" MBP i5 at the apple store to the newest version of Lion after issues with a previous Time Machine backup from Snow Leopard- this time I created a new account and just ported files and folders, and now MS Office doesn't work. Help?

I just restored my 13" MBP i5 at the apple store to the newest version of Lion after issues with a previous Time Machine backup from Snow Leopard- this time I created a new account and just ported files and folders, and now MS Office doesn't work.
^^ that's the main problem. Here's the full history.
I bought a new 13" i5 MBP, early 2011 edition. I had an old white Macbook 2.14 ghz core2duo on Snow Leopard. I attempted to port over my time machine backup, but encountered problems in that my User was inaccessible from the new computer after the import finished, and I had to go in and change the root password, etc, and for some reason or another, I couldn't install any programs at all from that administrator's account. By "couldn't" I mean I could install them, but upon installation they would never boot. So, I took it to the apple store and did a clean install from the most up to date Lion OSX. Then, I created a brand new admin account, instead of trying to import the old one, and things seemed great. Then, I just imported my old files from the TM backup, but not any system settings, permissions, or user data. Just my Docs, pics, vids, apps, and itunes stuff.
Here's where things get weird again. I imported this stuff under the name "old", but all of these folders have a red negative sign on them, marking them as restricted. So, from my main admin account, I cannot even peruse these folders. Since I didn't import user data, I can't sign in to the "old" account to change permissions. I already tried to change the permissions from system preferences, but that didn't change anything. And now, for whatever reason, of all the apps that were imported then, MS Office is the only set of apps that does not work. When I click on it, it just says there was a problem and asks if I'd like to send a report to apple. I tried reinstalling it to no avail. I'm an English student, so i really need access to Word. Can anyone help? The Apple store is a major detour for me and would like to fix this issue myself.

Most likely you have Office 2004 which are PPC-only applications and will not work in Lion. Upgrade to Office 2011. Other alternatives are:
Apple's iWork suite (Pages, Numbers, and Keynote.)
Open Office (Office 2007-like suite compatible with OS X.)
NeoOffice (similar to Open Office.)
LibreOffice (a new direction for the Open Office suite.)

"uses a file type that is blocked from opening in this version" error message when opening a *.doc file with Word already running

Several customers running different versions of Office 2011 (14.4.1-14.4.5) on OSX varying from 10.7.5 to 10.9.5, running on various kinds of hardware (iMac/MacBook Pro/MacBook Air) of various ages are having issues opening *.doc files if the Word is already open. The error message that gets displayed is, "XXXX.doc uses a file type that is blocked from opening in this version"
When the customer tries to open the same file via File-Open, she gets "The file is locked for editing. you can open the file as read-only".
When trying to do so, she gets "Word cannot open this document. The document might be in use, the document might not be a valid Word document, or the file name might contain invalid characters".
If Word gets Force-quit, the same document opens without any problems.
1. Repairing Disk permissions was ran several times. and the volume was found to be OK.
2. I have noticed that in this scenario either deleting the normal.dotm or com.microsoft.word.plist (~/Library/Preferences) sometimes resolves the issue, sometimes it doesn’t. There is no pattern to follow. All versions of Office are affected, the fully updated and the non-updated ones.
3. I have tried completely removing the suite using Office 2011 Uninstall.app and/or Remove Office 2011 Uninstaller.pkg, then going through customer's library and manually removing all the Office references.
4. None of these systems had Office 2008 in the past.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Reboot both the Mac and the server. Word opens .DOC files and Excel opens .XLS files. As you have found out by copying the files to the computer. It is the connection between the 2 computer that is causing the error.

HT201272 You seems not to understand what I mean and what I'm having like problem. I still have my payment recut from October of this year when I bought 9 songs in the iTunes Store from my iPhone 4S. The problem is from all the 9 songs, 7 are still avail

You seems not to understand what I mean and what I'm having like problem. I still have my payment receipt from October of this year when I bought 9 songs in the iTunes Store from my iPhone 4S. The problem is from all the 9 songs I've paid for, only 7 are still available from this list on my iPhone. There is no possibility to download the other 2 without paying for them. I've spoke to the lady from Mississippi on the phone 2 days ago from about 2 hours calling from Belgium but unfortunately she couldn't help me. It's the 3rd time I complain about this. How many time shall I pay for the same songs?? If you can access my music list and my past receipts payment you will be able to find out what I mean. I went back on iTunes I've found the the songs I already downloaded in October that should be on my playlist but if I click on them it will charge me again 0,99 cents. It's been 3 years I've been using the same apple ID with my iPhones. I just wand to get my songs back without having to pay them twice or 3 times

1. iTunes won't offer cloud downloads for songs that it "thinks" are in your library, even if it "knows" the files are missing. If you've exhaustively searched for the missing files and there is no prospect of repair by restoring to them to their original locations, or connecting to new ones, then delete that tracks that display both the missing exclamation mark and are of media kind Purchased/Protected AAC audio file. Don't hide from iTunes in the cloud when asked, close iTunes, then reopen. You can download from the cloud links or iTunes Store > Quicklinks > Purchased > Music > Not on this computer > All songs > Download all.
2. Why? Not sure, perhaps 3rd party tools or accidental key presses combined with previously hidden warning messages when trying to organize the library. There is a hint that using the feature to downsample media as it is synced to a device may also be involved, though I've not replicated it. Whatever the reason a backup would protect your media.
