Anyone else have audio distortion?
Hi everyone,
When I listen to certain audio, there's some distortion. I do not hear the distortion on the same audio with my iMac G5 and previous generation MacBook Pro. Is this something specific to my new MacBook Pro, or is it something specific to the new unibody models? It seems like the dynamic range of the headphone jack is limited.
Is anyone else experiencing this?
Hi Michael,
Thanks for your help here. I put the setting to 16-bit (from 24-bit) and it made no difference. Coldplay's "Lost?" is a good example. On my older MacBook Pro 2.2GHz, I can listen to the song at .74 (-9db) and it sounds fine, but on my new MacBook Pro it sounds scratchy especially with the piano. Basically anything where piano is the dominant instrument has the potential for distortion. Certain dialog scratches too at the higher volumes. I'm using Sony MDR-7506 headphones which I regard as pretty decent for monitoring sound. So I don't know if this is something that I need to call Applecare about or whether it's just how the new unibodies are? Regardless, it's disappointing.

I bought a Sandisk Connect Media Drive, downloaded the app from iTunes. Before iOS 8, movies played fine. After iOS upgrade I can no longer play movies downloaded from iTunes to the media drive. Anyone else have a similar issue?
I checked with SanDisk's own online support and they indicate that they have notified Apple of the issue.
According to SanDisk, the problem lies with Apple not having the iOS 8 version of the Safari browser having DRM decoding enabled that the Media Drive relies upon to decode and play iTunes DRM titles. Non DRM encoded videos will play in the browser.
DRM audio is not effected as this is handled by the native iOS music app.
As of the date of this post SanDisk have not been given a timeframe by Apple for this issue to be resolved.
I hope that Apple resolves this issue quickly as I have a large collection of DRM video titles on a 128Mb memory card installed in the Media Drive that I am unable to view. -
Does anyone else have this video problem?!?!?
So, This is ATV #2. The first one got sent back because during play, after 30 mins, TV would go black. ATV light would still be on, but no audio, video......Also when in standby, no audio/video would work when We brought it out of standby.
ATV #2 didn't have any problems...... Till now. Now it plays, but like the last one, when in standby, doesn't want to come out....No audio/video..... At first thinking it was the ATV, but could it be the tv?
I have a 46" Sony Bravia...Everything else works fine on the TV. Does anyone else have this problem of it not waking up from standby????
It's driving me crazy!!! Any help or advice will be much appreciated!!!!!!Next time it happens switch to a different input on the TV, then switch back and see if you have video, or turn the TV off and then turn it back on again. It's possible it could be the TV, for example, if it ignores the input after a certain period of inactivity and fails to detect when the ATV comes out of standby. It could be an HDMI issue between the ATV and your TV. A number of people have experienced HDMI anomalies with specific make and model TVs.

Staticky voice-over... anyone else have this problem?
I set my clock on my MBP to announce the hour at the top of every hour. My g4 Ti-book was also set up to do this, and it was a bit of a comfort during LATE NIGHT work sessions. I've set up the MBP to do this, but when it reads the hour it sounds very very bad. I can hear the voiceover voice start to talk, but then it cuts in and out rapidly (like static) and stops after less than a second. Has anyone else had this problem? Is there some odd setting (like the setting in the MIDI-utility that was causing web audio not to be heard) that might be affecting the voiceover utility? Oddly, when i have voiceover read other text, it sounds just fine. Its only the hourly time report thats messed up.

Uh, this is your first post, so you get some leeway...but, unless you provide enough info to help you troubleshoot, it's a guessing game and that isn't what the forums are all about... What LR version?What OS and version?What computer?What are the specs? Is this a new problem or have you had problems in the past?Any recent changes to your computer? Lot's of info you are not providing...

I have an iphone 4, when I plug in headphones I can pick up music and only background sounds, but no voices. It happens on every video or movie I see, but music works perfectly fine. Did anyone else have this problem or was it just me? If not can anyone help me?
Hey there Srkupo,
It sounds like your vocal audio is not working with your headphones connected to your iPhone. I would start with the troubleshooting from the following article to help troubleshoot them named:
Resolve issues with iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch accessories
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts2634
Update your software
Install the latest version of iOS. You can see which version is on your iPhone by going to the About screen.
If the device doesn't update successfully, the issue might be with your device and not the accessory. Learn how to check your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch.
Disconnect and inspect the accessory, then restart your device
Disconnect the accessory and turn it off, if possible.
Inspect the connection between the accessory and device and make sure that no debris or other damage is present.
Restart your iOS device by turning it off, then back on. When the Home screen appears, reconnect the accessory.
Try a different device
Make sure the issue is with the accessory, if possible. Always use an identical or similar, compatible device with the accessory you're troubleshooting.
If there's static coming from the left audio channel when you use headphones, try connecting the headphones to a similar device.
If the device isn't syncing when connected to the dock, connect it directly to the computer using the Apple 30-pin to USB Cable or try another USB port.
If you're using Lightning to 30-pin Adapter in a connection chain, try using the same adapter on a similar or identical device.
Restore iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
Restore your iOS device. You should rarely need to use this step with an accessory issue. If the issue only affects a third-party accessory, contact the manufacturer before restoring the device.
If this does not resolve the issue could you elaborate on where you are listening to this content from to help isolate the issue?
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
All the very best,

When I try to enter codes for digital movie downloads it tells me "code redemption is temporarily unavailable. Try again later." Customer support has been no help. Anyone else have this problem?
Am sick of going back and forth with what has turned out to be worthless customer support. Have sent them so much info and pictures, no help. All they do is send me links for instructions on how to redeem the codes. I know how to redeem, I have redeemed at least 50 codes. To them I am obviously an idiot though. To me it seems to be a problem on their end, but can't get an answer from them on why it is telling me code redemption is unavailable. Please help! Anybody!Confirming my suspicions with every passing hour. Support on this forum is non-existent like the support from Apple support. But, you got my money now... why would you care?

My RDIO app no longer works on my iPad. Does anyone else have this issue?
My RDIO app is not working on my iPad since they did an update. Does anyone else have this issue?
Hi klucas54,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
If the RDIO app is not working after the app was updated, start with the helpful troubleshooting tips in this article:

My daughter bought a 4th generation ipod classic without a charger. The ipod was working just fine, but then we tried to charge it using a brand new charger for an Ipod Touch. It won't charge and someone online someone posted that there ipod touch charger worked on the ipad, phone and whatever else he had but it wouldn't work on the classic. Anyone else have this same issue? Any solutions?
The ipod did not come with a power cord as we purchased it used from ebay. The ipod was half charged when we received it and it worked well enough to transfer songs to my computer (the previous seller didn't delete their 2000 plus songs). My son then used the same cord on his computer to transfer the songs, but processed an update to the ipod and after that,it wouldn't work. So, I'm not sure if we received a bum ipod, an update issue or we have a charger issue, but the cord we used to transfer the songs came from my son's brand new ipod touch. We've also tried 2 other chargers from ipods we have in the house, 1 being a wall charger.
One individual posted online that he took his ipod classic, mac and phone overseas with one charger and it worked fine on all but the classic. So, I'm thinking that they cords may not be universal. Online I've read that it must be a 6 pin firewire, high power 2.0 usb cord. Or that I need to purchase an applie charger. We don't live close to an apple store and I'm reluctant to order one just to have it NOT work.
My daughter is learning the hard way that buying off of ebay is not always the best solution to a cash strapped 12 year old.
Any other advice is greatly appreciated. -
after the newest update ( iso 7) , i can no longer type in traditional chinese ( pin yin), does anyone else have the same problem?
I downloaded and tried EasyFind. It works but it took 30+ seconds to complete finding 3 files that are on One of my Five 25+ Gb partitions of my 130 Gb Seagate Cuda(Really 160 Gb, but my Sawtooth will only recognize 130) I figured that if I ever got a better box, I could reformat it to see the whole 160 Gb. So, as far as I can see, Spotlight's indexing scheme which finds the files instantly is probably preferable. Spot light allows you to rename your files from within it's app window. I've always thought that was pretty powerful. Could my doing so be causing me any issues? As i said it is the inability to Type in the Finder that seemed to be caused from changing file Extentions that were mis-written. Maybe it was a delayed reaction to my renaming files in the Spotlight app? I've done both on occasion.
As for these .DS_Store files. Apparently you can NOT stop them from being written to any folder that you touch/open/view during a days session. But, as a function of the OS, are the essential to have in their respective folders Forever? I've looked at the .DS_Store terminator app briefly and assume that getting rid of these files won't hurt the regular operation of my OS. They will just be re-written if I ever have to go back to any particular folder again. But, apparently, some have said that if the plan on burning a CD or DVD of their data, they delete the .DS_Store files first and then do the burn.
I'm thinking from your having suggested this tremination app that you suspect that my having all of these ,DS_Store files could be a situation where any of them could have become corrupted and terminating them regularly should be part of my regular maintenance.
Does that sound like I'm understanding what I can do?
TIA -

Anyone else have the issue where, after the 8,3 upgrade, you cannot access more than 1 exchange account on your iPhone? This is annoying to me as I need to access 4 daily and cannot due to this error.
The first one, my private home email, works fine. With the other 3, I get the message "Cannot get mail: The connection to the server failed"
All were working fine before the 8.3 upgrade. I did try the old trick of making one minor change on the account and resaving, but that did not change anything. I even deleted my work account and re-entered it from scratch, but again, sadly, no luck. For the time being, I am successfully getting the email via IMAP, but this ***** compared to exchange. Anyone have any idea what is happening or if a fix is in the works?Well, the one set up on exchange 2k3 is now working fine, although no changes were made on either the iPhone or the exchange side, so that's fun, but it still is throwing errors when connecting to the other 2 exchange accounts. The common elements are that both non-functioning exchange accounts are google apps for business accounts. So is one of the ones that's working, by the way. The settings on both accounts are the same as the one that's working, and both worked fine before the 8.3 upgrade. I have no issue accessing both of these accounts on my ipad which is currently on 8.2.x. If it's not the iphone OS at fault, I'm at a loss as to what it could be.

Windows 8.1 with creative cloud logged in makes Desktop slow, anyone else have this behavior?
So I had this problem I was trying to figure out for the last week with a new laptop. When I installed the laptop everything was lightning fast. After I finished installing all the software, Windows desktop was slow, particularly starting applications like task manager would show a blank dialog for 30 seconds. Outlook, would be laggy and CrashPlan Desktop application would take 2 minutes to get past the splash screen.
To figure this out, I created a 2nd user on the system and everything was fast again. So I started copying data from one user to the other. When I started connecting applications, I noticed the Desktop slow again after logging into Create Cloud. I then logged out and checked. Definitely has to do with being logged into Creative Cloud. Anyone else have this behavior?I have tried lots of fixes including renaming files. The only thing that works for me is to remove the following windows updates:
KB2995388
KB2975719
Turn off auto updates before you start as you need to reboot afterwards.
I set auto update to the download but let me choose option otherwise these 2 re install themselves.
