X61 fan error - is there a way to identify which fan it is happening from???

My 7675-CTO X61 is giving me a fan error. 
I have read the forum and am pretty sure I can replace the fan.
However, how do I figure out which fan is giving me the fan error?
Is there a way to figure this out?
I need to know whether it is the main cooling fan (which is also called the CPU fan and Fansink I believe - correct me if I'm wrong) or the second fan in order to order the appropriate parts for this.
Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

I believe there is no way to tell, but I have found that if there is a second fan, the 2nd (little) one tends to be the problem. I keep a lttle fan around and always try it first because it is much easier to change

  • Is there a way to identify which files haven't been migrated from a backup?

    I've just upgraded my girlfriends 13" mbp from Leopard to Snow Leopard. It was behaving a little strangely and being sluggish so I erased everything before the upgrade. I've used Migration Assistant to transfer most files from a Time Machine backup but was a bit unsure about transferring everything blindly as I'm a little worried about what was causing the problems before the upgrade. The only items I didn't select in Migration Assistant were the 'All other files and folders' in the 'Users' drop box, and the 'All other files and folders on Macintosh HD'. I left these as I wanted to investigate what exactly these files were but now I have no clue how to go about this. Is there a quick way to highlight which files were present in the backup before the upgrade that aren't there now? Are any of these files likely to be hugely important?
    Also, because I backed up again after the upgrade, Migration Assistant automatically selects the last backup to migrate from instead of the one that has the missing files. Is there a way to select which backup file to use from my external drive?
    Thanks

    It's usually not a good idea to upgrade a computer that's having problems. They may get fixed, but more often they'll get worse.
    'All other files and folders on Macintosh HD'.
    Those are other files, not in any user home folders, besides system files. On most installations, they're just a few Help files, but if you've installed things or created files at the top level of a drive, they weren't migrated.

    No, unfortunately. You can only do that with a full system restore.
    If you used +Setup Assistant+ when the Mac first started up, the user accounts now on the Mac are the same ones, and you can use the "Star Wars" display to restore selected items from older backups. But you can't restore an entire home folder, or the default folders in the user's home folder (Desktop, Documents, etc.); you have to select the contents of those folders instead. See #15 in [Time Machine - Frequently Asked Questions|http://web.me.com/pondini/Time_Machine/FAQ.html] (or use the link in *User Tips* at the top of this forum).
    If you used the +Migration Assistant+ app, however, the user accounts may not be recognized as being the same ones, so may not have permission to see and restore from the backups.
    It's a pain, but your best bet may be to start over: do a full system restore of the last Leopard backup, per #14 in the FAQ. Then try to address the "strangely and being sluggish" issue. Once that's either fixed or you determine it isn't a big problem, just install Snow Leopard over Leopard without erasing.

  • On iPhoto you can click info and see which camera was the source for the photograph, is there any way to identify which camera took the video on iMovie?

    Is there a way to determine which camera was the source for video clips in iMovie?  You can do this in iPhoto by clicking info but I can't find out how to do it in iMovie.

    Not as far as I know.  (you can often tell from the file name format).

  • HT1535 Is there a way to identify which copy of a duplicate is tied to a playlist so the correct duplication can be removed?

    Recent Window's Vista reimage resulted in many duplicates in iTunes Library.  Too many hands in the process.  I don't see a way to identify which version is tied to a play list so I can remove the unattached duplicate.

    Hello 3PodFam
    If you are trying to get rid of duplicates within iTunes, the articles below will give assistance on how to remove them from iTunes as well as backing up your playlist and then import them. The export or import a playlist go to File > Library and you will see either option at that point. To show duplicates go to View > Show Duplicates Items.

  • I am currently running 10.7.5 on my macbook. I tried downloading Mountain Lion application...but it says 'error'',,,is there another way to upgrade my OS?

    I am currently running 10.7.5 on my macbook. I tried downloading Mountain Lion application...but it says 'error'',,,is there another way to upgrade my OS?

    First we need to know which one of the 9 different models of MacBook you have. To see which model you have go to the Apple in the upper left corner and select About This Mac, then click on More Info (and then System Report if you’re running 10.7 Lion). When System Profiler comes up check the Model Identifier and post it back here.
    The Early 2006 model 1,1 Core Duo can only run a maximum of 10.6 Snow Leopard.
    The models Late 2006 Core 2 Duos 2,1 through Early 2008 4,1 can only run a maximum of 10.7 Lion.
    The Late 2008 model 5,1 Aluminum Unibody through the Mid 2010 White Unibody model 7,1 can run 10.8 Mountain Lion.

  • My daughter restored her ipod in error, is there any way to get her library back?

    My daughter restored her ipod in error, is there any way to get her library back?

    It should all still be there in iTunes. Just reload the iPod from your iTunes library. Only the music on the iPod is gone, not the music in the library.
    If she was synced with someone else's computer, then she will have to re-load from that computer.
    If she bought music directly onto her iPod and never backed it up into iTunes (baaad idea), then she will have to contact Apple customer service for a one-time replacement on the purchases that she had on file.

  • Is there any Way to find Which case is Executing in LabVIEW VI programmat​ically and Display it..

    Is there any Way to find Which case is Executing in LabVIEW VI programmatically and Display it..
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    I wrote this a few years ago: http://lavag.org/files/file/199-state-machine-foll​ower/
    This JKI RCF Plugin sets the Visible Frame property of a Case Structure while the owning VI is running. Use it to follow the execution through the cases in your string-based State Machine/Sequencer when Execution Highlighting isn't fast enough (and, it's never fast enough).
    The use-case I wrote this to improve is setting a Breakpoint on the Error wire coming out of the main Case Structure and probing the Case Selector terminal so I can float-probe wires during execution. The problem with this is that I had to manually select the current frame every time. This is boring, so I developed this plugin to automatically set the Visible Frame to the case most recently executed.
    You might be able to adapt it to your needs.  The basic idea is that a custom probe on the wire to the Case structure's selection terminal sends a notification to a VI that displays the appropriate case.
    We might be able to help you develop something easier if you'll give us more information.  Is it OK if the code to display the case is in the same VI?

  • Is there any way to identify the particular socket connection is closed ?

    Is there any way to identify the particular socket connection is closed or not ?
    Any methods ???
    How can the program knows the connection is lost or some thing ...
    Is the socket throws some excpetions when there is no active connection ???
    namanc

    If you get an IOException when you try to use the socket, the connection was obviously closed.
    The correct way for an application to know if the socket was closed is:
    1) the server sends a message indicating that the socket should be closed
    2) the client closes the socket itself

  • Is there any way to tell which formulas a particular cell is in, reverse look-up style? That is, is there a way to search somehow for which formulas in a sheet contain a particular cell in them without opening all of them up? If not, it would be nice

    Is there any way to tell which formulas a particular cell is in, reverse look-up style? That is, is there a way to search somehow for which formulas in a sheet contain a particular cell in them without opening all of them up? If not, it would be nice.
    I'm fixing a Numbers document that I use in business daily that's become overly complicated, but while I want to clear/delete a number of cells in it to clean it up, I'm not sure if those cells are being used as source for other formulas on the page. I don't have to open all my formulas one by one to see if that cell is in there, do I?! That'd be a huge amount of work if I wanted to eliminate say 10 cells to search each formula on the page to see if it is in there or watch all the cells when I delete that cell to see if the numbers change! There's got to be an easier way! Right click doesn't seem to be any help.
    I don't want to damage my daily tool to make it cleaner and reorganize it. Is there really no way to do a reverse look-up of which formulas a particular cell is in?! Any time I click on a formula it highlights all the CELLS in that formula. Why can't I (or can I?) do the reverse and see all the FORMULAS that contain a particular cell?
    As a Numbers document ages or gets used frequently, you can sometimes forget which cells are tied to which formulas. You just look for the results of your formulas. Would be a nice thing to be able to do. Thoughts? Work-arounds? Answers?

    Answer would be no unless application provided such feature. Numbers does not as far as I know.
    Note that even if you have complete list of formulae used in a table, identifying formulae referencing any given cell is not simple.
    E.g., cell T20 is referenced not only in
    =T20+1
    but also in
    =SUM(T)
    =SUM(20:20)
    =SUM(S19:U22)
    =OFFSET(S1,19,1,1,1)
    =INDIRECT("T"&(10*2))
    In order to identify such formula, we have to actually evaluate it to see if it references the given cell. Especially such formula as OFFSET() and INDIRECT() may not be found by static parser because their parameters can be dynamic.
    Sorry to be the bearer of bad tidings.

  • Is there a way to set which keychain item is used by default for a site/application?

    This question applies primarily to the keychain in Mavericks, but also the iCloud keychain and its use in iOS.
    There are several sites and services for which I have multiple logins that serve different purposes. Whether it's because they are business/personal accounts, or accounts that pertain to different functions, I have multiple logins for many sites/services I use daily, however, there is usually one primary account for each that I use for most purposes.
    What I would like to be able to do is set which of these logins appears by default. An example scenario might be if I have an "admin" account on a site, and a "dev" account that is used for testing purposes to Q/A the site from the perspective of a user who doesn't have administrative access. Most of my work happens under "admin" but whenever I go to the login page, the "dev" account prepopulates in the login form and I have to start typing admin and select that. It also does this on my iPhone, which is where this issue becomes very cumbersome, because there is no dropdown for me to select which credentials to use to autofill from. It appears to only allow autofill from whatever it sees as the first account to come up, and I can't seem to change that without deleting all the other keychain items that come up ahead of the one that I want. This kind of thing also poses a significant risk of accidents if, say, I have multiple payment methods saved and the one that comes up by default isn't my personal payment method, but a business account that's only meant to be used for business purchases. If that comes up first, if I don't replace it with my personal details, I might accidentally place a personal charge on a business account.
    So I really have 2 questions:
    1) Is there a way to set the priority order of which account populates a form by default from the keychain?
    2) When filling out credentials on iOS, an "autofill" button appears at the top of my keyboard, and I can begin typing in a field and it will show the autocomplete of the username that I am typing, but if I click autofill, it replaces it with the original credentials and not those of whatever I began typing in. If I click on the username it's autocompleting, it just clears the autocomplete. Is there some way to choose which username I'm autocompleting a form with?
    Thanks to anyone who has any ideas about a solution to this, and if there isn't, and if anyone at Apple is listening, in an ideal world, it would be like setting the priority order of known wifi networks, where you can drag your first choice to the top of the list.

    This sounds like the age old problem with keychain & Safari. I don't know of a way to solve it without using something like 1Password.
    The iOS app has it's own built in browser, so it has more control over what gets autofilled. Safari on OS X has an 1Password extension that handles account selection & autofill etc.
    Keychain is great in principle, but it quickly falls down when you need tight integration with many ID's & different use cases (work, home etc).
    I'd suggest you submit feedback to Apple about your thoughts. I did so years ago about this issue & this is how far we have come (back to the point where me.com synced passwords) :^)
    http://apple.com/feedback/macosx.html
    Other tools like lastpass or keypassx may also help if you want to truly segregate password storage, but that doesn't fix autofill, the way around that issue is to dedicate one browser for work.
