I recently purchased my Macbook and I noticed that the battery power is jumping at least an hour every time I check how much battery power it has left. I wanted to know if this was normal.

I have a late 2010 27in iMac and it has shut down randomly by itself 4 times in the last month or so, including twice in the last couple of days. I have 16G of RAM and am only using up to 8G ever. Just to be clear, it shuts down and does not restart automatically. I never have the screen brightness higher than half so I don't believe I am overheating it? I really want to know why this keeps happening.

I have an i mac (quad core) running on Mac os x 10.7.3. I am finding increasingly that despite me closing all programmes properly the mac doesnt shut down. I find it goes to the grey screen and the mac spiral appears, I have to push the power button to shut the machine down.

A message will pop up saying something along the lines of - Safari unexpectedly closed - and will have the options to report, reopen or close. I know it would be useful for me to tell you exactly what it said, but by the time I opened up a new Safari and logged in, I've forgotten what it said, it did however mention "Steinberg" something.

My iMac is shutting down whenever I try to open an app. Everything was going fine, then I tried to open Skype and was forced to shut down the computer using the power button (there was no error message, just this message to shut down using the power button). I restarted it and deleted Skype thinking there was something wrong with the app. Then I tried opening Firefox and it asked me to shut down again. And it does it whenever I try to oPen any app.

Brought my iMac to store because it kept shutting down and rebooting on its own. Been 12 days and still haven't heard back from them and when I call I get the run around of the computer repair being "in progress". What to do next?

For the past two nights, my iMac has randomly completely shut down. I set it to sleep before going to bed. When I woke up, it was shut down. And the weird thing is that it was shut down, and when it started up, no applications or anything were open. Generally, I'll shut down and it keeps everything open and running, then when I turn it back on, everything is where it was. I don't know if I lost documents or anything... or everything. I've never seen this before since getting Lion.Â
I checked my energy saver schedule... I had it set to SLEEP at midnight. But it is never set to shut down or start up. And even if it was, why are all the apps closing when it shuts down?Â

I have a MacBook which has recently been shutting down when it feels like :/ this all started a week or two ago (well not the shut downs but other issues that I'll get too), basically the fan I think has been knocked as it is bumping the top or something as the whirring is getting loud and it sounds like every now and again it hits something
Also CPU usage seems to be averaging out at 20% for Safari and 100% for HD Video where as it used to be very small amount for Safari and 30 - 40% for HD.
When I turn on my iMac he does not get over the 'white' apple page and keeps on running in a loop for ours. I simply do not get the computer started again. I am completly lost. Tried it for several days to restart again.

Recently, tried leaving my iMac in sleep mode for hours but it keeps crashing with those Crash Reports popping up when I click to wake it. They mention Kernel Panics.(Also, been getting Kernel Panics randomly popping up when I start up at the desktop. This is a 2010 iMac which I purchased refurbished not quite a year ago Already emailed seller with issues, think I might just return it as seems like hard drive is going. , as to troubleshooting before I go this route?

Lately my iMac monitor keeps shutting off every couple of minutes. It seems like its in sleep mode but if i move the mouse or press a button on the key board it doesn't go back on. I have to press the power button 2 times to get it to turn back on. When the monitor turns on everything is still there right before it shut off.

My 8800 is quiet in idle, but during hours of WoW it gets extremely high. Anyone know any software that can adjust this?

I have snow leopard and sometimes I hear an audio that says "it's xx hours" (i.e. it's 24 hours) singing (it' s very boring). I don't understand which applications launches this audio and why (of course it is not itunes).
View 5 Replies View Relatedevery couple hours or so, my whole computer just stops responding.First symptoms are: my internet stops working(still responding) then, as i try to force quit, program dose not respond, nor does it close. All programs not responding. I even try to reboot finder, no luck. I try to restart or shut down computer, dosent work. This is all accompanied by the SBBOD. only way to fix this is to manually restart, holding the power button.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have a MacBook. It's 4 or 5 years old. I downloaded an older version of Handbrake so I could transfer some of my dvds to my Ipod Touch. The newest version didn't work. The first step didn't take too long, but the second step (I think it was Rip) is another story. When I clicked the Rip button, it said that it would take more than 25 hours to Rip. I left it running for 5 hours and it was not even one quarter done. Am I doing something wrong? The dvd is only an hour long.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to dowload a lion upgrade and the lion icon drops down to the icon bar, and the download begins, but after 18 hours it is only 25% of the way through. I pause and resume every few hours in case the process is stuck, but nothing speeds this up. My wifi connection has been fast enough to download big installs like this before in a few hours, so I can't figure out what I need to be doing differently.

I've just bought this brand new macbook pro 2 weeks ago and it only lasts this long. I'm not doing anything besides firefox and microsoft word. Why is it so short? Can I get a replacement since it obviously is a manufacturing defect?
