27" screenbuzz when decrease brightness

27" screenbuzz when decrease brightness
This only happens when HD reaches +47 degrees celcius or +116 degrees Fahrenheit.
I first noticed this when I was transfering my picturs from my network drive to the iMacs HD. This where about 50Gb of data and just before the screensaver jumps in the screen brightness gets auto ajust to a less brighter setting. This is when I first noticed the noise or electrical buzz.
Please can anyone check if they are having the same issue. Because I'de realy like to know if this is a hardware problem or maybe just a software and fan setting/threshold related issue.
Kindregards NotoriousT

I returned my i5 tonight at the local Apple Store. 4 days old. They wanted to keep it for additional diagnostics for a couple of days, I wasn't up for that.
The Genius couldn't hear the noise since the store was so noisy; I could barely hear it sitting right next next to it and knowing what it sounded like.
I told him I'd accept a replacement if I could unbox it in a quiet area and listen to it to see if it had the whine. He said they didn't have the time to help me with that, and I told him I would not chance taking another whiney iMac home with me just to be back in a few days witht he same complaint.
Seems that for $2K you could get that type of cooperation. That was a disappointment.
So we agreed to disagree, and ultimately they agreed to a refund with no restocking fee. And I will be waiting and watching these boards for indications that the 1.0 bugs are worked out of them, then perhaps make another purchase at that time...
Interestingly, as I was wandering through the store to leave, I started chatting with a salesperson who offered to help me. I explained the day's events and mentioned the whine and he lowered the brightness on one of the C2D 27" iMacs on the floor and said, "You're right, this one whines, too."
My point exactly...

  • Noise when decreasing brightness

    Hello,
    there is a strange noise when I decrease the brightness.
    Can someone please help me?

    Thank you

    Hello,
    So far there does not appear to be a cure for that. It seems to be common with the 24-inch systems. So far no-one has found a simple fix.
    You'll need to contact Apple directly if you want to have it repaired or eliminated.
    I hope this helps.

  • Blank screen for few seconds when using "bright applications"

    Hi
    I have my MSI GF5600 VTDR256 for almost a year now and still facing the same problem (after various driver updates still existing :-( )
    When I use application with a lot of bright colors, like Apple iTunes for example, the screen goes blank for 2 or 3 seconds and then returns to my application. Sometimes the screen isn't built up like it should be (pieces of text unreadable, desktop showing "through" some parts of the application). Problem also occurs when quickly scrolling websites with a lot of white in it.
    I connected my Philips 170B4 17" TFT using a DVI cable to the MSI card. Don't know whether the problem occurs when using a VGA cable to connect my monitor.
    The following screenshot illustrates how my screen looks after having another blank screen:
    Somebody any suggestions?

    I recently reinstalled my computer, so I started with the latest driver at that moment and the problem occured.

  • T400 LED LCD (Samsung) buzzing when lowering brightness

    Hi,
    my LCD screen was recently replaced.
    Just now, when lowering the display brightness, starting at 2 below max, my Samsung LED Screen omits a buzzing noise. It gets louder the more i lower the brightness. It is only really audible when i listen to it, so it is not that disturbing, however i would like to know if this is normal behavior?
    I know from LCD TVs that some buzzing coming from the backlight inverter is normal, however, i am pretty sure my old LG screen was dead silent - even on lowest brightness.
    Is my inverter going downhill or is it normal? Would appreciate other experiences. If someone would be so kind and check, put your ear to the left display hinge and lower brightness to 0.
    Thanks.
    Thinkpad T400 (Windows 7 Ultimate x64)

    Guess i will have a service center to listen to it then. Since i do not use the lowest settings at all usually, it does not bother me that much. But if this indicates that the inverter may at one point break i might as well have this fixed.

  • Is there a way to adjust shadows in iMovie 11? WhenI adjust brightness it changes shadows also. If not is there free or low cost software available? My operating system is Lion.

    Is there a way to adjust shadows in imovie 11. When I adjust brightness, it changes shadows also. If not, is there free or low cost software that I can download? I am using Lion 10.7.1

    You used the data.  Verizon can not see what it was sued for.  However your phone can see whats apps used the data.  go to settings-data usage- there will be a place that says data usage cycle.  line the dates up with your cycle.  then there will be a bar graph below that   extend bother white bars one all the way to the left and one all the way to the right.  after those are extended below that will be a list of apps,  there should be one that used over 2 gb and that will show you what app used that data in her purse

  • Why does the screen turn back on when the brightness is turned down?

    Hi,
    I bought a macbook pro (Mac OS X 10.6.8), and just recently last week when i turn the brightness down to black, after a couple minutes later the screen turns back on. Then when i touch the trackpad then it goes back to black. Is there any way where i can change this setting??? because this didn't happen before and now it just constantly occurs.

    Why does my mac mini automatically restart when I shut down?
    Seems that some process is calling it back.
    If I shut down via the log in screen it turn's off. What gives?
    Probably a process in your account and not systemwide.
    Go to System Preferences >> Accounts >> Login Items, and remove them. BShutdown and test. If not go to ~(yourHome)/Library/Contextual Menu Items and move whatever is there to the desktop. Test.
    EDIT: Also, unmount & disconnect all peripherals except Apple keyboard & mouse.

  • Adobe Premiere Pro CS4 Issue: *Changing Position Decreases Brightness*

    Okay, this just doesn't make any sense... Please help me wise ones.
    I have a new sequence with one video track and one clip. If I change the position of the clip, the luminance/brightness decreases! There are no effects applied to the clip and no other layers/nests/etc.
    1. New Sequence
    2. Drap video clip from bin
    3. Change position ==> brightness decreases
    (Effect Controls/Video Effects/Motion/Position Y)
    Please tell me what is going on, and how to fix it.

    Some Sequences allow you to set your Playback CODEC.
    Is this the case in your instance?

  • Contract Release Reset when decreasing the Value

    Hi,
    As per our client requirement we need to reset the contract Release Strategy when there is a change in Total Value of contract.
    As per standard behaviour on decreasing the total value of the contract release is not reset.
    How we can acheive this.
    Regards,

    As you already have the answers in your question..
    That release strategy will never re-set if the value is decreased.
    It always gets reset if the value is increased with earlier value.
    Why you want to reset the release when the value is decreased, as the system value which was set earlier already had been released by your approver.
    And contract is ready to proceed for further process.
    The system behaves like even you decrease the value which was falling under the old value so it will not trigger the release again.
    If you want to reset the release again then you need yo increase the value which has not been released earlier..

    When I decrease table size the vertical scrollbar show, but horizontal srollbar NOT show. Why? Because the table automatically resizes the width of each column.
    If you don't want this behaviour then set the setAutoResizeMode(...) method to off.

  • Compressor crashes when correcting brightness?

    Hello,
    When exporting from FCP to Compressor, anytime I try to make an adjustment to brightness Compressor crashes. Anybody know why or what I can do?
    Also anytime I export from FCP to Compressor, the encoded video ends up lighter than than the video in FCP. Why is that? Is there some other adjustment I should be making other than brightness control?
    Thanks, Drew Harty

    The only reason to suspect the OS is if moving windows in other applications causes the same crash.
    Sorry not to be of more help, I've only seen crashes by touching windows in a few apps. ONe that bugs the crap out of me these days is Microsoft Entourage for the Mac, part of the Office 2008 suite. Not all the time, but sometimes, which makes debugging it impossible, touching the pullout device in the lower right of the app's main window will crash the application.
    This is not related to anything except Microsoft's application, but that's just my isolated case; the same app on an identical Mac does not crash.

  • Colored frames when adjusting brightness/contrast

    Hello kind people. I am trying to adjust brightness/contrast on a short clip in my video, and I keep getting some colored frames that play when I replay the clip. I can stop at the colored clips, some are blue, and some are magenta. Anyone have an answer? I have rendered the clips, but I can't figure it out, and have never had this problem.
    Thanks,
    Mike.
    Final Cut Pro 6.0.6

    I reset the codec to Pro. All the footage I shot myself with the same camera setting. Also, I am only editing this one short clip, so it's not mixing with anything else I don't think.
    I figured out a go around from my problem. Instead of going to Effects, Video Filters, Quicktime, Brightness/Contrast, I am now doing Effects, Video Filters, Image Control, Brightness. It seems to automatically take care of the contrast to make it look nice.

  • Powerbook hums when lowering brightness

    I have a new Powerbook from Oct 2005.
    When it lowers brightness due to powersaving or if I lower the brightness manually the Powerbook starts to hum. Not always but many times.

  • RGB settings unexpected​ly reset when adjusting brightness on HP2509b monitor

    I am trying to modify the RGB values and brightness settings of my HP2509b monitor so that the the images on my screen more accurately reflect the prints that I receive from my photo lab.  
    After I modify the RGB settings so that the White Balance on my screen matches the print pretty closely I then attempt to lower the brightness to adjust that setting more closely to what I see on my print as well. Upon reducing the brightess by only 1 value, my RGB values instantly reset to the 6500K preset.
    WHY????

    Thomas,
    the free GMB program Calibration Tester shows the
    contents of the graphics card LUTs.
    Altogether three programs, mentioned here on p.20:
    http://www.fho-emden.de/~hoffmann/measgamma10022004.pdf
    If the luminance settings of the monitor are above
    the target value e.g.100 cd/m2 for a calibration
    by instruments, then the graphics card LUTs are
    trying to reduce the luminance (old example in the
    doc, also p.20), for instance from 110 to 100 cd/m2.
    Such a case would reduce the resolution a little.
    As tested by Eizo CG19:
    The adjustment of the monitor by monitor menues
    doesn't affect the graphics card LUTs. In fact,
    the calibration by GMB ProfileMaker5 guides the
    user to adjust the monitor dynamically/interactively
    so, that the LUTs contain finally almost no correction.
    In this sense the old example above wasn't perfect.
    This is the classical method, which I'm applying as
    well to Eizo CG19, though this monitor offers a
    calibration by ColorNavigator, based on monitor-
    internal LUTs with 10 or 12 bits per channel
    (leaving the graphics card LUTs at identity y=x).
    For certain reasons I'm not using this feature.
    One reason: then it would be impossible to have a
    look at the contents of the LUTs.
    Theoretically the result should be better for high
    resolution LUTs, but I wasn't able to detect banding
    or posterization after applying the classical method.
    Best regards --Gernot Hoffmann
