What could be wrong? I need some help please. =(

Hi all,
I'm quite disappointed with my macbook performance. The video performance is real bad as i can't even run expose / dashboard properly (it appears on the screen laggy when it's meant to be a very beautiful transition).
I have a 2 Ghz macbook installed with 1 gb (2X 512) ram. Bought the rams from myself (they're hynix rams by the way and of the correct specs).
I did apple hardware tests + memtest and found nothing wrong with the rams. Any idea what could be happening?
This slow performance issue comes on quite frequently but i'm unable to determine the root cause of it. I even brought the macbook to applecare @ wheelock but the problem did not show itself and the serviceman looked at me as though as i were lying or something. It's ULTRA pathetic service from him. I'd always remember that person. What kind of service apple provides these days? If there isn't an issue would i travel an hour just to bring the macbook to him?
Anyway, what could be the possible causes of the slowdown?
I can only think of:
1. Processor running too hot?
2. Faulty video card - how do i determine this?
3. Software - i reinstalled os x myself and the problem's still showing
4. Widgets - i can't even run those on the macbook decently. didn't even bother trying to install others
5. Ram error - they're hynix rams though and of the correct specifications
6. Too many programs - it occurs immediately after i restart my macbook too
What should i do? I appreciate your inputs. The macbook's only 2 weeks old. I'm quite disappointed.

Since you took it to an AppleStore I'm going to assume he ran diagnostics on it and those should have been the Apple diagnostics which are different from what we consumers can get. The computer must have tested within specs. If I'm wrong about the diagnostics - I'll keep my thoughts to myself - they need to be run.
But even before you make a return trip - or call AppleCare, try this. Create a new account and set your computer to automatically log into it - or to no automatic login. Turn the computer off (and unplugged) for about an hour and then restart it into the test account to confirm that the computer doesn't behave when cool. If it behaves when cool and then starts acting up we'll know it is heat related.
Two things stand out:
1) you've installed RAM
2) computer is slow even after restarted
If you still have the original RAM, reinstall it. The new RAM might be the cause - it might also be causing the overheating. I have no proof, but based on what I've seen at work I think RAM companies are letting more marginal RAM pass into the marketplace than they used to.

Already gone through troubleshooting guide a zillion times. Thanks.

This worked for me... A little time consuming but once you get rolling it goes GREAT... Thanks....
I got my artwork and saved it to my Desktop
Opened up Microsoft Paint and clicked on "File" and "Open" and found it to get it on the screen to resize it
Clicked "resize" and a box for changing it opened up
Checked the box "Pixels" and "Unchecked maintain aspect ratio"
Set Horizontal for 640 and Vertical for 480
Clicked on "OK" and went back to "File" and did a "Save As" and chose JPEG Picture
It came up "File Already Existed" and clicked "OK" (really did not care about the original artwork I found because wrong size)
Went to iTunes and on the movie right clicked on "Get Info", clicked on "Details", then "Artwork"
Go to the little box on the top left that shows your old artwork and click on it to get the little blue border to appear around it and hit "Delete" to make it gone
Click on "Add Artwork" and find it where you put the one from above on your Desktop and hit "Open" and OK and your new artwork is now there and all good.
Sounds like a lot of steps to follow but after around 5 or so you will fly through it. This worked perfect on my iPhone 6 Plus and I have artwork on my Home Videos now.

Hi! I got movies on my external hard drive that are AVI kind and won't play on my macbook pro? need some help please!!

Hi! I got Movies on my external hard drive that are AVI kind and won't play on my macbook pro? When I start playing the movie a message pops up and says "a required codec is not available". I tried flip4mac, xvid, divx already and still not playing my video. need some help please!! thanks.

Although vlc mentioned above is a much more powerful and better player you could try installing Perian if you insist on using the quicktime player. It may supply the codec it needs.
Not sure why you wouldn't be able to play straight avi files though in quicktime.

Ok, the short of it.... I started training on Database programming about 2 weeks ago. I still don't really know a thing, or even understand the concepts. Now, my boss wants me to fix a bug in Oracle, and I haven't a clue. The ONLY help I've gotten was a link to this forum, and a speech about how I need to help myself. I told him I have the same chance of fixing anything, as monkeys typing hamlet. Anyone up for a challenge?
When I go to Application System, then Application Entry and enter the password a dialog box appears.... "FRM-40039: Cannot attatch library Empower while opening from APPUSRAPP."
That's what I have to fix. I have no clue. I don't even really know how to click around in this program. Please help, someone.
UPDATE: I've been told that everyone's pretty much going to be a jerk to me for asking this, and I'm currently searching old threads and can't find a way to delete this one I posted. So, you could just ignore the post, or jump in and be the internet tough-guy and tell me what I already know.... I'm a newb.

Hello everyone,
I have a line (a little white line) down the screen on my satellite laptop. It appear a little while after installing 2gs of memory. Could someone explain to me what could have cause it and if it is covered by my extended warrenty. I also wants to know if it is covered by the warrenty if Toshiba allows me to take it to a local repair shop that is not their as i am in the caribbean and none of their repair centres are close to my island.
Thank you in advance.

What is the complete model number of the laptop and the complete part number of the new ram?
As for the warranty issues, you'll need to contact Toshiba Warranty Support about that. This is User's helping other Users and none of us would have that information.
If you don't post your COMPLETE model number it's very difficult to assist you. Please try to post in complete sentences with punctuation, capitals, and correct spelling. Toshiba does NOT provide any direct support in these forums. All support is User to User in their spare time.

2100 WLC 1130 APs - need some help please

It's been about 5 years since I took my CCNA course and could use some help on a wireless set up for church.
We have a Catalyst 3550 that is running fine, just a few VLANs, including 30 for public wireless. I've then got a 2100 WLC and (3) 1130 AP's. After much head banging, I've got the WLC set up correctly (i believe)
VLAN 30 is a 10.0.3.x segment
switch is 10.0.3.1
WLC mgmt interface is 10.0.3.20 - connected to the switch on port 1
WLC ap mgmt interface is 10.0.3.21
APs pull 10.0.3.30, 31,32. - they are plugged directly into the switch
I can obviously see the APs while in the WLC GUI.
The AP's SSID don't show up wirelessly. The AP's circle is red/orange
The detail on the AP in the WLC shows them operationally down.
What additional information can I provide?
Much thanks.

lost all my audio. nothing plays anymore. cant even hear the trash empty any more. no itunes, nothing. no dvd audio. also noticed itunes wont play songs anymore, progress bar just sits there. also movies on youtube dont play anymore. when i try to turn up audio i get a zero symbol with a slash thru it. im stumped. help please. thanks

Whatever has happened, I've assumed it just happened and is systemic.
To start: Go to Applications/Utilities and run Disk Utility, select your startup drive, and click on the Repair Permissions button at the bottom of the window.
If that works, you're done, if not, pull out your Tiger startup DVD, insert it, select the Installer, and Restart your Mac from the DVD. When you get to the installer screen, go to the menus at the top of the screen and select Disk Utility, and this time click on the Repair Disk button. This will check your file system integrity and repair it.
When you've done that, post back.
If those don't work, you may need to do an Archive & Install, from this same DVD. This will preserve your accounts/apps/data, but will require you to repeatedly run Software Update to bring everything current again.
Good Luck...

New Mac User and I need some help please!

Hello, I just bought a MacBook, and it was an open box item that didn't come with any manuals or restore discs. I'd like to get a copy of restore discs to re-format everything since the computer was a display. Does anybody know how to go about getting them? I know the discs are very specific to what model MacBook you have. Thanks in advance for your help...

The manuals you can get online but the restore disks you will need to call the store. If that fails call apple support and tell them what has happened and they will advise you on what to do. If this fails you could by a copy of lepard and you can reformat the HD and reinstall lepard.

I have a Question, I need some help Please!!!! Anyone??

Ok let me first thank you by taking thr the time to help me. I have a question that seems like it should be simple enough but i just can't figure it out. I'm relatively new to InDesign and I own a small print advertising company. I'm trying to design a flier for a client and I need to put his logo on the page but when I insert it I can't get the white background of the box to go away. I just want to logo, it's an odd shape and I used a photo editing program call GIMP to take it from another advertisment he had and cut it out. I thought it was cut out perfectly, but when I saved it and moved to InDesign I just could figure out how to get rid of the box. It should be simple and I think I am just missing a step or a feature, but I am still learning the program. Please help me. The online guide just confuses me.

I've never used GIMP, but I suspect you haven't save this with a transparent background. What file format did you use? Does the background appear transparent or white in GIMP?
All of that aside, 99% of the time logos are vector illustrations, not raster images, and what you have will have severly degraded quality when it goes to print. You should ask the client to supply the original logo artwork.

DVI to TV problem. I need some help please

OK, Im running a MAcbook pro latest OSX all updates etc... In the past i have been able to plug in the adapter to the DVI and run on end of an RCA cable out of it to the RCA video in on any tv. I would normally just hit f7 and the display would be seen on the tv. The problem is now I can get a picture on the tv what so ever. I have tried the detect display feature and no luck. I have tried multiple tvs and cables..no luck....
No when i connect to an external computer monitor using the other DVI adapter everything is fine on the external monitor.
I believe the problem started when I hooked up the external computer monitor. It seems some setting has changed that will only recognize the the computer monitor.
I don't think its the DVI to to tv adapter having a problem as it's newer..never been abused or anything like that... Im very confused and frustrated any help would be appreciated
thanks

an out file. The problem is that my in file has a few lines and i do not know how to dubstrin g different linec can anyone help me?

Well,
I took the liberty of rewriting your code to make it readable, and expurgated most of the carp... what you've got there boils down to a really complicated-azzed implementation of cat.
package forums;
import java.io.BufferedReader;
import java.io.FileReader;
import java.io.PrintWriter;
import java.io.BufferedWriter;
import java.io.FileWriter;
import java.io.IOException;
class FileCatterator {
public static void main(String args[]) {
    BufferedReader input = null;
    PrintWriter output = null;
    try {
      input = new BufferedReader(new FileReader("FileCatterator.java"));
      output = new PrintWriter(new BufferedWriter(new FileWriter("FileCatterator.txt")));
      String line = null;
      while ( (line=input.readLine()) != null ) {
        int len = line.length();
        String substring = line.substring(0, len);
        System.out.println(substring);
        output.println(substring);
    } catch (Exception e) {
      e.printStackTrace();
    } finally {
      if(input!=null)try{input.close();}catch(IOException e){e.printStackTrace();}
      if(output!=null)output.close();
}The substring doesn't do anything.
Now, What did you need it to do? Print the first so-many characters of each line or something?
