Mac Book OSX 10.5.7 Airport Status Disappeared from Menu BarI recently download OSX 10.5.7 and now my wi-fi connection does not show up in menu bar. When I'm outside I use the visual feedback to move the screen or place my lawn chair closer to the house. I have reset the show airport status in menu bar. It works for a while then disappears again. I've had my mac book since Nov2007 and this is the first time the airport status has disappeared from menu bar. thanks for any guidance. -

I'll check that out James. The fans were loud when newly purchased. You may be right though. Thanks -

James,
TV shows from network sites. Any video really. I download videos with MIRO and watch them. Youtube of course. Seems anytime I watch any video my macbook fans kick in after a minute. I tried making my own video with the built in camera and mic. The noise from the fans made it impossible to hear so I had to use a headset earphones that had a microphone to get away from the fan noise. I love my macbook and OS X is the best operating system. I'm just shocked that a computer known for its arts software profile would overheat so easily.
I watch a video of Lab Rats, a video show about PC and Mac computers and one of the hosts showed a video using his mac book pro and I head his fan on his mac book pro immediately kick in. Darn. Even the pros overheat.
I'm really shocked at this. I often keep my mac book on for 17-18 hours a day and it gets hot which is to be expected. It's great until I try to play videos. Even when I first turn my mac book on in the morning a video will cause the fans to come on.
It is sad. The new aluminum mac books are out and I wonder if they run cooler when playing video. Again, you'd think a Corporation with the best OS and a reputation as a art computer would overheat like this.
Maybe its time to wish OS X could run on a pc gaming machine and there wouldn't be overheating?
I bought a pad with slots for air circulation as I keep my mac book on for long hours at a time. Instead of making a new mac book to satisfy the green movement that Apple had made a new mac book to satisfy actual users for a better cooler users experience.
Again, any video play overheats my mac book. I won't even go into the fact that an edge of my mac book broke off and I have it taped up.
If not for OS X I'm not sure Apple was a good choice for the hardware.

Playing Videos Overheat my Mac BookWhy does a media laptop such as my Mac Book which I bought Novemeber 2007 start up the fan quickly when I play any video. Can't apple build a laptop that doesn't overheat as soon as you start to use it?

new window link tag optionI was wondering if FLOCK plans to add a 'blank' tag option to links so they will open in a new window. Currently I have to go to the 'source' page to edit it into all my links. Darn !
