Unable to charge my MacBook but the battery and charger are fine...
Hello all...
I brought this MacBook in late 2008 as i love Apple products and had had my last one for 5 years with no problems, so i upgraded.
Before the year warranty was up the battery completely died, which worried me as my previous apples battery lasted 3 years before gradually loosing power. This one worked fine one day, the next it was dead.
Both me and my partner have a MacBook so when this one failed to charge, i had the luxery of being able to test the charger and the battery, both are fine.
His Macbook is about 5 years old now and he has never had one issue or needed to replace the battery.
Does it sound like i brought a dud?
Has anyone heard of this problem before, or know of a solution?
Yours in anticipation
A very frustrated Mac user
Basically the magsafe board is a tiny board that plugs into the logic board. The battery cord, which are the brass pins you see when you remove the battery, are the end of another cord which connects to the logic board. If it isn't the magsafe board, which btw is a fairly reliable piece of hardware, then it is the logic board because this board is what actually houses the SMC. The SMC, or System Management Controller, is what controls hardware power and cooling by taking the information from the temp sensors, the battery, magsafe and other locations and deciding what to do with that information and what it means. If the SMC is not functioning properly, then the machine will still use power when it is given to it, but routing the power correctly, ensuring the battery is charged and everything else can be faulty. The SMC is a non-removable part of the logic board, so when it fails, the only way to recover its functions are to replace the entire board.
Sadly the Genius didn't lead you astray when he told you that. A cheaper option might be a third-party battery charger from macsales.com. I don't work for them or get anything for the reference, but they do have external battery charges and conditioners for the MacBook batteries.

Hi, I hope you can help. I'm sure this is something really basic that I should be able to fix myself, but.................
I was working on a photo calendar on my macbook off the battery and the battery suddenly ran out. So it wasn't shut down properly. Now when I open i photo the coloured wheel just keeps spinning and I can't get into it. Everything else on the computer seems to work. I've done forced quit and restarted it a few times and also left it running.

Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
If that fails:
Option 2
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one. .

I am new to iMovies. When I make a video using the mic and camera in my Macbook Pro, the audio and video are not in synch. Very annoying. How can I fix this?
DVD drives read the bottom of the disk, not the top. Smooth out the paper & try again.

HP Photosmart 2610 All in One Printer Paper feeds OK but the software and sensors are a problem
HP Photosmart 2610 All in One Printer Paper feeds OK but the software and sensors are not allowing paper to feed until several steps are taken first.
(I am using Windows 7. I also use the virtual XP mode and mostly MS Office 2003 docs).
I have had this printer for several years and love it. Before I toss it out, I thought I would check if I could get it to work properly before I buy another printer. Note: I did put in a new HP black cartridge (because it was out of ink) but the printer was not working properly for several days before I changed the cartridge. The printer was at step 5 before ink change.
Lately, each time I turn on my printer, I have to go through the same routine
1. The printer wants to align the cartridges so I push OK
2. The paper feeds into the printer and stops at the exact place to start printing.
3. Error message appears that it is out of paper. So I press OK to continue.
4. It says "aligning print cartridges" runs through 2 sheets of blank paper without trying to do anything and then states "cartridge alignment failed" "Press OK to continue"
5. Screen is now normal and it appears it is going to work.
6. It makes no difference if I used the copy function OR when I send a print job from the computer, the paper feeds into the printer and stops at the exact place to start printing but nothing happens.
7. Error message appears that it is out of paper. OR that it is the wrong size paper. I pull the paper that was at the proper place to be printed from the printer and then the error message says "Paper jam. Press OK to continue"
8. I press OK. The printer will then quickly feed in and eject 2 sheets of paper before it will actually start printing the print job. It will work fine after this as long as I print from the same document.
9. If I want to print a different document then I have to start all over again at step 6 to get the printer to work. If I shut the printer off I have to go back to step 1.
What I have already tried
A. Uninstalled and reinstalled the printer driver direct from HP web site. I have done this several times with both the basic driver download and the complete package download.
B. I have done a partial reset by unplugging the printer, and then re-plugging the printer while pushing the "# and 3" buttons while turning on the printer. I have done this several times. Each time it will work fine until I try a different document of turn off the printer.
C. I have downloaded the HP Print and Scan Doctor and used it several times. It states that "everything checks out OK"
D. I have downloaded the HP Hardware Diagnostic Utility 4.0 but it does not work with my printer.
E. I have cleaned all the rollers and blown air throughout to make sure there were no bits of junk in the paper's path or blocking a sensor.
F. I have tried different brands and weights of paper (all 8½ x 11) but nothing works.
Most of the problems started when I added the printer to the virtual machine so I could print XP files. This may just be a coincidence because the printer has the same problems when I use the copy function without the computer being on.
Thanks for looking at my issues. Any help would certainly be appreciated.I just tried using Notepad as you suggested and had the same result. Paper feeds in stops at proper place and error message "out of paper"
I just put in two new HP ink cartridges because the other two were low and I was told that this might be the problem.
I seem to remember that the HP 2610 shows 2 "ink icons" in the lower left corner. One for black and one for color. The ink icons would change from completly full to just an outline as the amount of ink went down. Currently the black ink icon is missing
This is a very frustrating problem because the printer works great after doing a few steps to get around the problem. The fact that the problem reoccurs any time anything is changed is the major problem
Most of the problems started when I added the printer to the Windows 7 virtual machine so I could work with Windows XP programs. This may just be a coincidence because the printer still has the same problems when I use the copy function without the computer even being on.
I want to thank you for all of your efforts. Perhaps this is a unique problem that will never be solved and it is best to take my losses and buy a new printer. As a last chance, if possible, could you refer my post to someone who is an expert with the HP 2610 printer. -

I just updated to 5.7 and the exported files are blurry. I compared the ones I exported before the change and they are fine. I have not change any settings.
I don't understand your last paragraph.
"The home page also has a full bar ..." What does "full bar" mean? " ... instead of the tray it had before." What does "tray" mean?
Anyway, you might try Settings > General > Reset > Reset Home Screen Layout
I guess that cannot make things any worse. -
T42P. Does not boot/startup. Black screen. All indicators except the battery and power are off.
Hi all,
I am new to the forum and so very desperate for help!
I have a T42P (2373-C61) machine. All of the sudden today, it blue-screened. I turned it off, then tried to turn it back on.
Now, it is not coming up at all. I can not even get to the BIOS or see anything in the screen!
All the lights/indicators are off except these two: the battery/power and the little z (the on indicator).
The NumLk and Caps Lock indicators flash every 15 seconds or so.
The hard drive, bluetooth, and wireless lights are off completely.
Tried getting to the BIOS by unplugging the battery and using the AC only but nothing happens when I press F1 or the IBM button.
Also, tried a suggestion from other users that requires unplugging Battery/AC, pressing Power button 10 times, then the 11th time for 30 sec. Still nothing happens.
No HW/SW was added to the machine recently...
Any suggestions is appreciated..It can also be the LCD itself...
BTW, if the graphic card has failed that equals motherboard replacement since it's soldered to the planar...
Let's hope not...
Good luck and keep us posted.
Cheers,
George

My iphone is fully charged as is the morphie but it will not power on. The battery strength button on the bottom shows all four lights. I have pushed the sleep/wake button on the top, I have pushed the home button but nothing happens - the screen remains black
Have you tried resetting your device by pressing and holding the Home button and power button until the silver apple appears?

I treid letting it run flat, then charging it but it went back to the black screen. Sometimes the mouse icon can be seen and I can move it but it will vanish sometimes.
Could be a problem with the LCD or it's cable, this seems like a hardware fault. I would go to the Apple store before its to late and before you run out of warranty (you get a 1 year warranty) There no way of fixing this without opening the computer which would void the warranty. If you have ran out of warranty i would go on eBay and look for a inverter, the cable or possibly the LCD apple would be able to tell you what it is without you having warranty and try the repair yourself or you could pay Apples overpriced repair.

Any way I attempt to open new tabs, be it clicking on the new tab button or using the short-cut Ctrl-t, I am unable to open any new tabs on my browser window.
The only way I have found that I can open a new tab is to right-click on a link and instruct that link to open in a new window.Try disabling the Ask Toolbar extension.

When exporting video, narration does not export over but the audio and soundtrack does fine.
I have created a video that contains audio from the video, music background soundtrack, and my narration voice over. All the sound exports correctly except the narration. There is not sound whatsoever, not muffled or soft, it does not exist at all. I have saved it as AVI, as Windows Media Player, as Adobe Flash Drive, etc and still nothing. Please help...
EmmaBean
What version of Premiere Elements and on what computer operating system is it running? Have you created the narration in Premiere Elements
using the Narration Tool? Do you have the problem in the export if you move the narration clip to one of the numbered Audio Tracks before export?
Are you using the SmartFix feature in this project? If so, have you checked your background foreground settings?
But, before that, is the sound on all the audio tracks OK when evaluated in the Edit area? Is the sound a problem only in the export?
If you are having sound problems in the Edit area before export, are you adjusting the volume while viewing the Audio Meters
typically found under Window Menu/Audio Meters.
Let us start here and then decide what next.
Any questions, please do not hesitate to ask.
Thank you.

that pretty much says it all above. I have since tried to remove and reinstall firefox from my computer 4 times in the last 2 months and the same thing happenes each time.
This issue can be caused by the Babylon Toolbar 1.1.8 extension
Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
*Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
