What is causing a sound problem with new Cinema Display 27 ?

My new 27 Cinema Display intermittently won't play sound when connected to my MB Pro. Restarting the computer doesn't fix it, and all the display audio settings are correct etc. Phoned Apple Support and the fix was to unplug the power from the back of the cinema display to reset the screen controller. This keeps happening - is this a software bug ? Hardware problem ? Is it fixable or something that is a legacy of the 24 inch cinema display problems ? I really like the screen size but don't want a display that I keep having to plug/unplug in order to watch hulu, play itunes etc. Apple won't declare my screen to be defective even though this has happened a few times but can't tell me how to fix the problem either. Am going to send it back for a refund - don't know whether a different display will have the same problem or if this is a generic cinema display defect. Thanks for any insight.

There are threads in this forum and MacRumors where numerous people are having this issue. When I contacted support they had me reload the software update and reset the power. I am encouraging everyone to contact Apple every time it happens so we can get a fix for the problem. It is the general consensus that this is a software issue that can be corrected if we can get Apple to work on it. I agree with you I expect my $1000 monitor to work properly all the time.

  • Some bad news about the dust issue occuring with new cinema displays

    Hi. Just wanted to share what I went through today. I received a new cinema display for Christmas (early gift exchange with my gf) and was very shocked when I hooked it up to my MacBook Pro and noticed a long piece of dust under the glass (resembled a short piece of string). Once I confirmed it was under the glass, I packed up the display and brought it to the Apple Store in midtown. The Apple reps at the store were friendly and understanding and gave me no problems with an in store exchange request (the original display was purchased online). Upon receiving my second display, I hooked it up in the store to make sure there were no issues. Guess what...DOA. The Apple reps were shocked and slightly embarrassed and went to the back to get me another display. Once display #3 was brought out, we unpacked it and hooked it up to make sure everything looks alright. As soon as we turned on, 1 dead pixel and multiple pieces of dust behind the glass (5-6 dust particles). Once again, the reps say the dust issue is not acceptable and they go into the back to get display #4. Repeat routine and guess what...even MORE dust this time. Close to 9-10 particles throughout the monitor. Unbelievable! I ended up clearing out their stock so we had to leave the store empty handed (gift card equal to the amount of the display for future purchase).
    So what to do now? The manager and staff were very friendly and helpful and told me I could call in next week to see if they replenished their stock yet. Once replenished, the manager will check the monitor I am going to purchase prior to me stopping by the store so I don't waste another trip. I have a feeling this issue will be ongoing until it is addressed by Apple but we shall see. I really want this monitor for my new MacBook Pro so hopefully this will get sorted soon.
    Anyone else have this problem? Anyone purchase a good display?

    I'm glad there are others out there who are also seeing this stuff. My local apple store manager was more concerned about her stores sales rather than making the swap and getting me a new one. They held one after I was on the phone with them for 45 minutes, and this process required me to call back the next day again to make sure it was put on hold because even though they were closed, she couldnt place it on hold. Then, this monitor had dust behind it, and they were out of stock and were very unhelpful. I contacted apple and they have since been shipping me a new monitor. The first one came two days ago, cluster of 4 stuck green pixels noticeable on a black background, backlight issues, and there was some dust.
    I've said it before and will again, Apple you make great great stuff, but the displays are going down in quality. I've had iphones, new MBP's, and now cinema displays with dust under the glass. I dont know if they feel that most people don't catch this, and this is worth the price of doing busisness, however, its a shame to waste my time in hopes of getting one eventually that is perfect.
    Everyone who I talk to at aplcare is very nice and helpful. It just seems a huge waste of money for them to keep shipping monitors out with this issue when they are ultimately spending more to let me win the lottery so to speak in getting a display that doesnt have issues.
    Hopefully apple will see these posts and escalate them. Because I am bout to drop another 6,000 on a 2nd macbook pro and the new imacs when they release, and I pray that I dont have these issues. I would love to know who the vendor is, because they have been very sloppy lately.
    Maybe I could get a job at apple working quality assurance? That would be a dream job, playing with all thier new product and doing something useful, and getting paid.......

  • FireWire (and USB?) problems with 23" Cinema display

    Hello.
    Whenever my G5 wakes from sleep, I seem to have problems with FireWire devices attached to the Cinema Display (and, possibly, the USB ports also). Somehow, it seems that the "wake" signal is not transmitted to them.
    Specifically:
    a FireWire hard drive does not spin up (a USB drive connected to the back port does, as does a FW 800 drive also connected to my PowerMac). When I try to access it, then it finally spins up.
    An EyeTV 200 device fails to connect (i.e., display TV or record shows) unless the Fi cable is unplugged and reattached.
    This happens WHENEVER the Mac sleeps. However, if I attach those two devices directly to my PowerMac, they function just fine, using the same port the Cinema Display is attached to.
    I don't have other comparable devices attached to the USB port of the Cinema Display, except (previously) for a Plextor ConvertX DVR (a USB 2 device), which exhibted the same problems as the EyeTV 200, which is why I tried swapping it with the FireWire-based EyeTV (unsuccessfully). So I have some evidence that the USB port has similar problems, but nothing conclusive.

    Hey Scott
    You are not alone. I'm beginning to think there is an issue with the power supplies of the 23" displays.
    In my case, my computer is set to never sleep, while the display is set to sleep atfter 30 mins or so.
    It appears that the computer won't wake up in these cases, but in fact what is happening is that the display won't wake up.
    Multiple re-starts are sometimes necessary to get the display up and running again.
    While your problem seems slightly different, I think that the two are related in that there is not enough power being delivered from the power supply for the monitor to both your USB and Firewire devices connected to your display.
    I don't really have a solution as of yet.... aside from purchasing a new power supply from Apple... But, you are not exactly alone in your misery. Should I run across a fix for this aside from the power supply, I'll be glad to let you know.
    Generally after HD's spin down, they usually don't spin up unless they are accessed. If you have any open files on your FW800, that may explain why it does spin up when you wake up your system.
    One thing you can try, in the System Prefs, under Energy Saver, uncheck "Put HD's to sleep". This may cause all of them to spin up when you wake your system up.

  • Black Spots/ Smudges/ Dust Problem with Apple Cinema Displays

    my 24" cinema display from 2010 developed dust/ stains in the lower left corner of the display after about 1,5 years in use. see the attached picture. the problem is mostly seen in imacs. there is a long thread in the macroumors forum describing this problem and showing a not easy solution.http://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?t=1101370. i'm convinced that there is the same problem with some of the ACD like mine. probably the cause oft his problem is the sealing between display and backlight (see the description by oggy in the above linked thread) which allows that circulating air can bring dust between the two panels. it looks really like a design flaw. if you are in guaranty apple will change the panel. without guaranty no chance of help. but even the panel is changed the problem can occur again. but there are some hints that apple is investigating this problem. please post your experiences how apple is handling your case if you have the this problem.

    Hi, I have tried shifting them around, and the problem does seem to follow the graphics card, despite all tests indicating they are both working properly. Any other arrangements will cause a grey screen to come down while starting up and say I need to restart the computer.
    Changing the slots for the graphic cards, but keeping the display attached in the right place, would allow the computer to turn on but a window would come up saying that they weren't optimally configured (16x or 8x or 4x speeds). The best configuration remains the one I begun with (slots 1 and 4). The computer will only start properly with the display in slot 4, right hand side looking at the back of the display, and only when it's turned on will it allow me to attach the second monitor, again, only in slot 4, to the left side.
    The same would work if the card was in slot 1, but it would tell me they weren't configured ideally so I put the card back in slot 4.
    At this point, then (I have also just tried resetting the PRAM by pressing cmdoption+PR when restarting, but no changes) should I reconfigure the graphics card? (If yes, how do I do it?)
    Thanks again, Valentina

  • Surround sound problems with new 15.11 software

    Firstly I would like to give a big thankyou for getting the new IP recording software release out it is very welcome.
    Unfortunately this has highlighted even more the surround sound issue for me. All my tests have been done over optical (if anyone could repeat the tests over HDMI it would be very much appreciated just to see if there is any difference).
    Here are my findings so far with a small amount of testing.
    BT TV on Demand
    HD 5.1 movies appear to switch correctly
    SD and HD none multi surround movies appear to play in stereo from the start needing the menu/surround workaround applying to get surround sound as is the same for the tv box sets and kids on demand.
    IP Channels
    HD sports channels i.e. BT Sports 1,2 and ESPN (I have hidden the SD versions so haven't tested them) appear to a switch to surround sound correctly
    All other channels start in stereo and require the AD button on/off workaround to switch to surround sound.
    IP Channel Recordings
    Here lies the real problem for me now. Any IP channel recordings (not tested sports channels yet) start in stereo and require the AD on/off button workaround to switch to surround sound BUT as soon as you apply a fast forward or rewind when it starts to play again it has switched back to the stereo feed which is a much higher volume. I hope you can appreciate how annoying this gets that everytime you fast forward/rewind a recorded IP channel to sound switches and starts playing at a higher volume until the workaround is applied (everytime).
    Obviously the freeview channels all appear to switch and work fine.
    I am sure there is more to find but I just felt it worthwhile getting the issue highlighted AGAIN now the recording ability increases the visibility of this bug.

    Maybe slightly harse as with more testing I am not sure if this is a youview/humax issue and is a problem on the catchup player on youview retail also. I have added below to my first post slightly with a few more findings and some clarity. 
    When I say surround sound what I am talking about is the Dolby Digital track (this can be 5.1 or 2.0 but in 2.0 format my amp can encode that with pro logic 2 and make it sound like a reasonable surround sound track through my speakers).
    After testing through HDMI sound I find that this is even worse and in most cases will not transmit the Dolby 2.0 track at all even using the workarounds.
    The freeview HD channels work flawlessly as do the BT sports HD channels (all 3 inc ESPN) (non-HD freeview channels do not appear to carry anything but standard stereo so can't switch no matter what). If anyone has a surround setup check the difference in volume between channel 001 (BBC non HD) and channel 101 (BBC HD) this I believe is the difference between the standard stereo channel and the dolby 2.0 stereo channel.
    All IP channels (except sports) fail to automatically select the Dolby 2.0 soundtrack unless forced, as do the catch up channels (tested during programme playback as no Dolby during the adverts) and if recorded switch back to standard stereo everytime a skip/rewind step is made.
    Most on-demand content fail to switch automatically to the Dolby 2.0 track but can be forced with the exception of some HD movies with 5.1 soundtracks that appear to work without a workaround.

  • [Athlon64] Sound problem with new speakers, maybe related to soundcard on motherboard!

    I just bought new speakers to my PC, creative Inspire GD580, but no sound are comin from them! they worked, because on the remote u could press test and then a noise came from each speaker (its 5.1) but no sound in windows, (when u log in or out and that kind off stuff) and not when I play music or games. Whats he problem? they are exactly right plugged in in the computer and that kind of tuff sp thats not the problem. I wonder if it has anything to do with my motherboard because the sound card are on it, I dont use any seperatly sound card, I use the one on the motherboard, the motherboard is an MSI K8T NEO2 FIR, K8T800PRO, Socket-939 SATA, GbLAN, ATX, Raid, Firewire, AGP8X (sound exit : VIA VT8237 - 7.1 sorround sound.) Is this my problem? please help!             The Sound card i think its called Realtek AC'97 Audio for Via Audiocontroller, is that bad or good?
    Maybe thet just control the sound, i'm not sure its the sound cards name!

    Okay,
    the old speakers work fine, the new ones don't. So I don't think, that this is an issue of the mainboard.
    Please check if the speakers are really connected the right way. Also check "Audio devices" (sorry, don't know the equivalent in non-german Windows) in Control Panel, if speaker setup corresponds to your hardware. There is also a MSI- or realtek thingy in the control panel, you should have a look at the settings there, too.
    In BIOS there is not much to check. You can only enable or disable the onboard audio device. BIOS Version is shown on startup, it might be necessary to press the [pause] key in order to read the information.

    I seem to have the same problem. The sound would play in some programs, would not in others, and in all of them when I stop playing, it would repeat the last half second endlessly. Could anybody shed some light on this problem?

  • Sound problem with new ios7

    Since the iOS7 update, the sound coming out of the speaker and headphone jack of my ipad 3 sound very bad.

    I have this problem too and others have reported it.  Reboot by holding the on/off button and home button until apple appears was suggested and seems to work for some. I just shut down and restarted normally and it works too, but not on every fresh start up. Bad, bad Apple because this problem appears even with Apple's own Music app. You think they might have tested it. I have seen the problem on and off in TED videos. Tried to watch one tonight with my wife and the sound was horrible. We couldn't stand it. I shut the iPad down, came back 20 minutes later and everything works fine.
    I bought my first Mac in 1984 and have been happy with Apple, but I'm embarrassed to say that ios7 looks a lot like Microsoft, just changing everything for the sake of change and, moreover, creating problems for users. ios7 calendar is far inferior to its predecessor too IMHO, but that's another topic.

  • Sound Problem With new motherboard Z87-G45 Gaming

    2 days ago i bought a new motherboard msi Z87-G45 Gaming ,
    when i started playing my favorite game (cs go) i noticed that the sound at the left and right are louder(way louder it even hurts me ears )
    and the sound at the front and the back are just normal, i also noticed that quality of the sound is worse , so im wondering if the onboard soundcard is broken or has it to do with something else?
    and yes the Realtek Hd Audio driver is installed
    im using the onboard soundcard Realtek ALC1150
    and the headset Siberia V2 Steelseries
    I am new to the forum if i posted this in the wrong section or something i apologize
    i also like to apologize for my bad english.

    >>Posting Guide<<
    Apart from Realtek you could install Sound Blaster Cinema.
    Try to reinstall the drivers >>Realtek Downloads<< with the latest available.
    Try different headset/speakers.

  • Sound problems with Satellite A100 (PSAA8)

    I am continually having sound problems with the laptop. Whilst I hear the windows start up noise and beeps, I cannot hear any sound from things like CDs, iTunes, Media Player - in fact an error message will always come up. In Media Player the error message "Windows Media Player cannot play the file because there is a problem with your sound device......." comes up. I have a the standard pre-installed Realtek sound thing on my laptop. I have tried downloading a newer driver from the Toshiba support centre, but I don't know what to do with the zip file. Also in Control Panel, Sounds, everything is greyed-out.
    Hope someone can help cos I am going nuts with this :-)
    Thanks

    Hi again
    I have downloaded the Realtek sound driver from the Tosh page and unzipped it.
    (I have chosen the driver for Vista!!! I suppose you use Vista???)
    There is a folder called sound. Access this folder and run Setup.exe
    But before you will start this procedure you could access the device manager (control panel -> computer -> device manager) and choose sound, video, and game controller. There you have to mark realtek AC and click on uninstall and reboot the unit.
    After this sound driver removing you should start the new driver installation described above. (setup.exe)

  • Problem with new version 4.3.2 apps not working " after update to the new version "

    Problem with new version 4.3.2 apps not working " after update to the new version "
    i was in 4.3.1 then i do the update , but now after update i face this problem , so what i Supposed to do ?!!

    Hi There
    Had the same problem as you. App would terminate when launched.
    Solution to working You Tube app:
    -Go to playstore
    - Uninstall app (it doesn't remove the app, only removes the update)
    - "Et Voila", working again.
    This doesn't correct the problem, it's just a workaround for you to be able to use youtube app again.
    Hope it helped.
    Best Regards

  • List of Problems with new Web Mail

    List of Problems with NEW Web Mail :
    - At first doesn't open full page message list or retain full page as default setting, have to drag down bar
    - Only shows 20 message lines after “pulling down” the divider, screen partially empty until I scroll down.  It should show at least 26, preferably all available
    - After moving bar, bar moves back up after going back to inbox (not delete message) after reading a message, have to move it down again, and again...
    - Doesn't go to next message when delete message on screen is selected, no setting option for default to do this.
    - There is a drop down to select which folder to move a selected email to.  The initial display shows 7 usable choices, with the usual slider and arrow to show more choices.  The space on the slider clearly shows more choices are present (actually about 20 or so are there), but any attempt to use the slider or arrow to see more choices causes the drop-down to instantly disappear.  I can't move the selected field with arrow keys either.  I can select any of the visible 7 choices, and move an email to only one of the 7.  NOTE: This one works in both IE and Firefox, but if Verizon Webmail was fully web standard (see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Web_standards) compliant it would also work in my preferred browser, Mozilla Seamonkey, the direct descendant of the original Mozilla browser.  Webmail should be FULLY web standard.
    - Occasionally a message will move from inbox to trash, without NO indication or command to move them.
    - Emails occasionally flash an error message and simply disappear - not to trash or other findable place, just disappear.  No time to read the error message either.
    - No way to set a whitelist for supposed spam emails, unless the whitelist for “Blocking” is the same.  Very unclear.
    - How can I switch my service back to the original, basic, email which works ok?  I know it’s still there, since some of my other accounts still access it!!!
    This seems my only way of getting this info direclty to the programming staff.  If it doesn't actually do this, will SOMEONE PLEASE FORWARD THIS MESSAGE TO THEM !?!  
    Thanks!

    Contrarily, it is Verizon's, as well as other companies like Verizon whose customer base uses a wide variety of web browsers, web page designers' responsibility to use only standard W3C-recognized code and not to use non-standard non-W3C-recognized code, e.g., Microsoft's Internet Explorer specific code, when designing their web pages. In my opinion based on my observations, Verizon's web page designers are too often guilty of using IE-specific code.

  • I have sounds problems with iOS 7

    I have sounds problems with iOS 7. I can not hear my music, all the apps have no sounds. Only when I ask Siri has sound but it's too loud and awful. I found 2 errors with I ask to Siri what things she can do in Spanish the is an error and one word or If I ask who am I? She said that I have to go to settings and indicate her who I am but I already have that configured. And I try to configure again just in case, I do the same question and she still doesn't who I am.

    Try a Restart. 
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red "slide to power off" slider appears, and then slide the slider. Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.
     Resetting your settings
    You can also try resetting all settings. Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings. You will have to enter all of your device settings again.... All of the settings in the settings app will have to be re-entered. You won't lose any data, but it takes time to enter all of the settings again.
    Resetting your device
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Apple recommends this only if you are unable to restart it.
    Or if this doesn't work and nobody else on the blog doesn't have a better idea you can contact Apple. 
    Here is a link to their contacts with most of the information below.

  • Before I buy has there been any problems with new 27 iMacs?

    Before I spend my hard earned cash does anyone know if there has been any problems with new 27 iMacs?

    Hello richard from Folsom:
    Are you inside or outside?  (  I could not resist, I lived in Sactown).
    Anyway, advice is frequently worth what you pay for it, and mine is free.
    If you want it, buy it.  The posts above are right on the mark (except waiting is probably overly-cautious).  The best advice (from anamusic) is to buy the extended warranty - well worth the money.

  • Sound problems with my Visio

    Hi, I have read that people are having sound problems with their Vision M players, hissing etc.
    I wonder if anyone has had the problem I have - I cannot alter the volume! When I plug in either headphones or portable speakers into the M, using the touch pad has no effect on the volume. If I unplug it the touch pad then alters (or appears to) the volume - judging by the scale on the right of the screen. Plug the phones back in again and I get the same one level of volume.
    Also, the screen goes blank when I plug in phones or speakers.
    I am an MP3 player virgin and have no idea if the fault is mine or not.
    I bought my Vision M from Amazon, who very quickly sent me a replacement when I contacted them - even before I had returned the original. But the replacement has the same problems.
    Any comments would be welcome.
    John

    woggydog, thats what happens when your plugging outputs into the Audio/Video out socket of the player using the dock or supplied connector... it goes into line Out Mode, which cuts out audio from changing since the amplifier would be able to control this on a sound system.
    The one that shouldn't do this is the one on the top right of the player.
