Was hot and now it's not. ?
Just got myself the white Macbook a couple weeks ago. I've been using it constantly. (my 1st Mac, and I'm never getting a PC again!)
Initially, it was always pretty hot. Uncomfortably so. (I had to put it on top of a couple hardcover books when using it on my lap).
It's plugged in nearly all the time except when I go to bed - then I turn it off and unplug the power adapter. I close it when I'm not using it.
Last night the fan just suddenly quieted down, so much so that I can't hear it - and now it's nowhere near as hot. I've got it on my lap right now (without the books) and it's only a little bit warm.
Does this mean anything? Should I be concerned?
Possibly relevant: The weather has dropped at least a couple degrees in the past day and it's noticeably cooler - another summer is on it's way out.
By the way, the specs are:
2.4 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo
4 GB MHz DDR2 SDRAM
250 Gig hard drive
OS X 10.5.4
Any feedback would be appreciated.
call apple support and tell them.. its a safty issue because the device get really hot..

Please help me how to re open my iPhone as it was charged and stop working after few hours
Try a reset.
Hold the lock/power button and the home button at the same time until you see the Apple logo on the screen.
No data will be lost.
Let us know if that has any effect. -

Basic Troubleshooting Steps when all else fails
- Quit the App by opening multi-tasking bar, and swiping the App upward to make it disappear. (For iOS 6, holding down the icon for the App for about 3-5 seconds, and then tap the red circle with the white minus sign.)
- Relaunch the App and try again.
- Restart the device. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
- Reset the device. (Same article as above.)
- Reset All Settings (Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings)
- Restore from backup. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1766 (If you don't have a backup, make one now, then skip to the next step.)
- Restore as new device. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4137 For this step, do not re-download ANYTHING, and do not sign into your Apple ID.
- Test the issue after each step. If the last one does not resolve the issue, it is likely a hardware problem. -
I have been using Firefoz for several months. It will not start now. I click on the icon and nothing happens. I'm running Windows 7.
Did you reinstall from backups, or www.Mozilla.org?

It was working and now it's not
I was listening to music throughout the house all day so iTunes was sending to the Apple TV for the theater speakers. I turned everything off, did some stuff and then decided to listen to some more music while I worked. I turned on everything including the TV this time so I could select music from there. iTunes is on but it no longer can connect to the Apple TV. I get this error message.
An error occurred while connecting to the AirPlay device “Apple TV”. An unknown error occurred (-15000).
I double checked the TV input and it is correct. The screen glows slightly and if I press the remote buttons I hear the familirar beeps but nothing else is happening. There have been no power outages or anything else weird happening since I turned it off and back on beyond the passage of an hour or so. What's happening?
I will go disconnect the power and do all the usual stuff but there is no good reason why this happened and all the messages I could find concerning similar unknown error messages have gone unanswered. Does no one know what is happening?Hello ladybastet,
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities!
I found this article while researching the issue you are describing named Error -3256 or -15000 when streaming to AirPort Express base stations using iTunes found here http://support.apple.com/kb/ts2278.
I would recommend the 10.5.1 or later section.
All the best,

What do I do when a download is interrupted and then will not continue to download?
I really do not think it is the iPad or your network connection. Other users have reported this very same issue. Try this and see if it works for you - it may not work - but it's easy to try - harmless - and it has worked in the past for others.
Try signing out of your account and restart your iPad.
Go to Settings>Store>Apple ID and tap the ID and sign out. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button. Go back to Settings>Store> Apple ID and sign in again. -

My Itunes was uninstalled and now it will not reinstall
I have emptied my temp folder, removed all of itunes components and tried to download several times. It always says, after I download, that it is untrusted. When I click run, nothing happens.
I'd first try downloading an installer from the Apple website using a different web browser:
http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
If you use Firefox instead of IE for the download (or vice versa), do you get a working installer? -

I am trying to get it alive by holding both buttons (home and power) for 10sec, one by one, connecting to ituns is unposible too
Does anybody know what to do befor taking it to the repair shop?
Sincerely IliyanHello there, Cruiser22.
The following article speaks to the issue of the iPhone reaching excessive temperatures:
iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch (4th generation): Keeping device within acceptable operating temperatures
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2101
Specifically this recommendation:
To resume use of your device as quickly as possible, turn it off, move it to a cooler environment, and allow it to cool down.
Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.
Cheers,

I was in Lightroom and had a power surge and now Lightroom will not launch. It encountered an error when reading from its preview cache and needs to quit. Lightroom will attempt to fix the next time it launches. I have shut my system down and Lightroom still will not launch. Does anyone have any suggestions?
delete your preview cache (.lrdata folder).
Here has location:
Preference and other file locations in Lightroom 5
If not enough info, search this forum for "delete preview cache".

I recently upgraded toSnow Leopard, after that I was given a continual message that I had to reinstall my Internet Cleanup. So I did. Then I turned my computer off and now it will not turn on at all. Help!
See if your Mac will boot from the install DVD.
Then uninstall Internet Cleanup.

I have an iPhone 4 thats i was trying to fix and now it will not turn on at all is there anyway that i can access my pictures and contacts from my new phone or pc? Aslo the are both on the same apple id but i dont know if that would help or not.
Contacts are designed to be synced to a supported application on the computer or a cloud service.
Pictures taken with the device are designed to regularly be copied off the device to a computer as would be done with any digital camera.
If you have failed to use the device as designed it may be too late to recovery anything.
Is the device regularly backed up to a computer via iTunes? If so, the most recent backup (when restored to a replacement iOS device) should contain all contacts and pictures as of when the backup was created. -
I changed my Apple ID (other email address and password) and now I can not login to my account in the iPhone iCloud. When I open the tab iCloud displayed my old Apple ID (it was in the iCloud) and asks for a password, but neither the old nor the new password does not match. What to do?
If you want to change your iCloud ID or password on your phone go to Settings>iCloud and tap Delete Account, then sign back in with your updated information. Note: this only deletes the account and any synced data from your phone, not from iCloud. Provided you are signing back into the same account and not changing accounts it will be synced back to your device when you sign back in.
