issue of white macbook

I have about 40 old white MacBook about 5-7 years (not sure).  During Thanksgiving weekend, 2 of them had something to do where an article has increased in size to the point where the pavement jumped out of his position.  I don't know what's under the pavement, but would like to know what could be the cause.  I plan to take off the back to watch.  They were not connected in charge, but just sitting on a table.  Risk of explosion or fire?  Someone else has similar things happen like that?

It would be the battery swells. You should get looked at them immediately before the swelling causes irreparable physical damage.

The defective batteries must be disposed of as soon as possible. The swelling is a very common failure mode. If the MacBook were not so old, the batteries have been replaced under an extended warranty with Apple.

  • Issue of white background

    I adjusted inadvertently of my motorcycle G so that the smartphone Office now has a white background, and pictures on the phone without color. I've included a screenshot of the desktop, smartphone and a sample of photography affected as an attachment to the subject of the question.

    Thanks for tips on how to address the dark G motorcycle on the smartphone desktop and how to restore the color to the color photographs.

    also, look for the settings-> accessibility-> color inversion - that may be the cause.

  • issue big white blocks

    I looked at some posts that were made at the end of May and July on those infernal white blocks. Some responses referred to a fix coming from Adobe and a likely difficulty of AMD. These corrections have been made? I have a new computer with the processor Skylake, 16 GB of memory and a graphics card than R 390. I'm so happy to have spent that much on a card and then turn it off.

  • iPad version works fine. Version white MacBook and no menu option works not at all.

    Screen Shot 2013-04-08 at 9.26.20 AM.png

    Chat live refuses help, so I'm steaming mad on this subject. Can anyone offer any suggestions?

    Menu options can be selected, but nothing happens. Same "About" does nothing.

    I don't know how the app could not get into this State.   It is not something that I can reproduce.

    Try to reinstall the application and the application cache erasing.  Here's how:

    1. Stop Revel and uninstall by dragging the application to the trash system
    2. Use the Finder menu: go > go to folder: ~/Library/Containers/
    3. Delete the folder: ~/Library/Containers/com.adobe.Carousel.mac
    4. Re-install Revel from the Mac app store and connect again.

    Does that help?

  • MacBook 13 "mid-2007 - startup white screen error

    So I have a white MacBook, 13 ' mid-2007, with 500 GB HARD drive, processor Core Duo (not Core 2 Duo) and 2 GB of ram, and it has a problem. Then, one day I was in front of the thing the House of my friend and jumped out. Flipped the lid and the MacBook was closed. Weird. I used it just before loading a Word document before my departure. I pressed the power button, and I heard the startup chime classic. Then I heard something not so classic. "Click-click! Click-click! "I think," what in sam *? "as the white screen appears and seems to never end. Just the white screen and the snap of what I assumes that the hard drive. Nothing works. The strange thing is, its JUST a white screen. No Apple Logo, no folder with a question mark, no crossroads, not just white. Even more strange thing, is, he does not meet the startup commands, such as holding the C, alt, command-R, etc., except the eject button. It could eject discs. I tried everything to get the thing to start SOMETHING, with a Recovery Mode, OS X installation disc, a USB that came with my MacBook Air, which contains the operating system it is running, the OS X 10.7, Lion. I even went all try to install Ubuntu on the thing, with a disk I burned, but that's when things got really climb. The wisest eject button work anymore and now the disc is stick in there. Couldn't get anything out. Nothing. Just click-click and the white screen of death.

    Oh and by the way, I could possibly recovering my data from the hard drive? It would be great. I worked with this computer. =)
