Anyone experience "Zap" sound after loading Mavericks

I loaded Mavericks and then Parallels 9 on my MacBook Pro.  Immediately following that upgrade, I began to hear at irregular intervals a zapping sound, like an arcing. The sound would immediately proceed some other sound (beep for an event for instance).  The longer in between the Zap sound, the longer the duration of the zap sound.
Being concern that that computer had some motherboard problem and could crash at any time, I went this Tuesday and bought a new computer.  This was set up by the Apple Retail Store.  I then installed Parallels 9.  As it turns out---SAME SOUND IS OCCURRING!!!
Has anyone experienced this?  It is beyond my expectation that software would be the cause but I can't imagine after having two same events after installing new software that I am an isolated situation.

I do not know if a similar one will be required for AutoCAD LT so be sure to check their website.

  • All of my iMovie projects disappeared after loading Mavericks.  The updated version of iMovie shows no files and cannot find any files to Import.  My machine, a beefed up Mac Mini, has slowed to a crawl.  Suggestions?

    My Mac Mini takes forever to load programs now.  After loading Mavericks it seems like I am back in PC World again!!  My biggest concern is ALL of my iMovie projects seem to have vanished.  I do not have sound on some web sites like YouTube.  I lost the option to mirror from the Mac to the TV but I was able to solve that.  Any suggestions on recovery of files?  I do not use TimeMachine and did not back up anything before the Mavericks installation.  I know...that's bad.  Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

    After loading Maverick iTunes will not launch.  I get an error code: -45054.  I am the administrator and have no groups or guests.  Sharing options don't fix this.  Also Fetch will not launch, I get error code: SSL error 9807.  These worked perfectly before installing Maverick.  Also everything that loads, all programs, take twice as long to load.  I have MacKeeper and have cleaned and discarded all the garbage. 

    Remove "MacKeeper" as follows. First, back up all data.
    "MacKeeper" is a scam with only one useful feature: it deletes itself.
    Note: These instructions apply to the version of the product that I downloaded and tested in early 2012. I can't be sure that they apply to other versions.
    If you have incompletely removed MacKeeper—for example, by dragging the application to the Trash and emptying—then you'll have to reinstall it and start over.
    IMPORTANT: "MacKeeper" has what the developer calls an “encryption” feature. In my tests, I didn't try to verify what this feature really does. If you used it to “encrypt” any of your files, “decrypt” them before you uninstall, or (preferably) restore the files from backups made before they were “encrypted.” As the developer is not trustworthy, you should assume that the "decrypted" files are corrupt unless proven otherwise.
    In the Finder, select
    Go ▹ Applications
    from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-A. The "MacKeeper" application is in the folder that opens. Quit it if it's running, then drag it to the Trash. You'll be prompted for your login password. Click the Uninstall MacKeeper button in the dialog that appears. All the functional components of the software will be deleted. Reboot.
    ☞ Quit MacKeeper before dragging it to the Trash.
    ☞ Don't empty the Trash. Let MacKeeper delete itself.
    ☞ Don't try to drag the MacKeeper Dock icon to the Trash.

    After loading Mavericks(terrible name,btw), why can't I see a way to sync/update my contacts on itunes anymore?  hm????
    And I can't seem to be able to sync contacts at all.  Not at all.... Really... Not happening...
    Contacts has always been a sketchy, inferior application, now with the NEW Mavericks, it's not even working.   sigh.

    It's named after a favorite surfing beach in California. Many companies are now using names of places because then they know the name doesn't violate a trademark in any of hundreds of countries. Thinking up product names is very difficult, legally speaking. Place names are convenient.

  • Cannot print to Brother HL-2270DW after loading mavericks

    Cannot print to Brother HL-2270DW after loading mavericks

    I got the 9840 working. I installed all the latest drivers (still no joy) but then I went into the Preferences, uninstalled the printer by simply highlighting the printer and selecting . I then closed the prefs, went back in and added it back . **** if it worked in Word immediately.
    I agree with most - this has been a very unApple-like experience - hopefully not a harbinger of things to come.

  • After loading Mavericks, I can't see/open attached pdf files

    after loading OS X Mavericks on my MacBook Pro, I can't see/open attached pdf files. I've checked my Security Preferences in Safari and Enable Java Script and Allow Plug-Ins are both selected. Any ideas as to what I need to do???

    I checked as you noted above - this is what comes up
    Adobe Acrobat NPAPI Plug-in, Version 10.1.7
    so I assume (?) that it is installed. 
    I just went into my hydro bill and tried to open the pdf version and, low and behold, it opened.  So somewhere in between when I reinstalled it yesterday (after your suggestion) and just now, it is working!!!
    So thank-you for your help!!.  Cheers.

  • Has Apple morphed into Microsoft? Why wouldn't iPhoto work on a 2 year old Mac after loading Mavericks?

    Has Apple morphed into Microsoft? Shouldn't iPhoto work on a 2 year old desktop after installing Mavericks?

    It still does, just not the version you have. Go to the App Store and upgrade it. The upgrade should be free.
    iWork and iLife for Mac come free with every new Mac purchase. Existing users running Mavericks can update their apps for free from the Mac App Store℠. iWork and iLife for iOS are available for free from the App Store℠ for any new device running iOS 7, and are also available as free updates for existing users. GarageBand for Mac and iOS are free for all OS X Mavericks and iOS 7 users. Additional GarageBand instruments and sounds are available for a one-time in-app purchase of $4.99 for each platform.

  • Mac Pro 2012 crashes regularly after loading Mavericks

    I upgraded the OS to Mavericks, direct from Lion, on my Mac Pro 2012 computer, since when it crashes and restarts spontaneously. Herewith the reports. Can anyone offer a straightforward solution? There is no sign of Google inspired crashes, as with other users. Is Mavericks named to draw attention to its spontaneous behaviour??

  • After loading mavericks on MacBook Pro (mid2010 i7) the entire system has slowed considerably?

    A new software package required a minimum upgrade to OS 10.7. After speaking with an Apple Store rep. He suggested Mavericks as my system was compatible for this upgrade and assured me this would be a "seamless" transition. So I purchased the new software and downloaded/installed Mavericks (10.9.1), the system immediately slowed down significantly, this included Apple apps, my ISP and several Adobe programs as well. As I had opened/unsealed the new software, returning it would be very difficult, so I loaded it...no change.
    I would appreciate any positive suggestions.
    Thanks

    The ISP provides anti virus
    Start by removing that. It's completely worthless and also quite likely to be the cause of your problem.
    Any third-party software that doesn't install by drag-and-drop into the Applications folder, and uninstall by drag-and-drop to the Trash, is a system modification.
    Whenever you remove system modifications, they must be removed completely, and the only way to do that is to use the uninstallation tool, if any, provided by the developers, or to follow their instructions. If the software has been incompletely removed, you may have to re-download or even reinstall it in order to finish the job.
    I never install system modifications myself, and I don't know how to uninstall them. You'll have to do your own research to find that information.
    Here are some general guidelines to get you started. Suppose you want to remove something called “BrickMyMac” (a hypothetical example.) First, consult the product's Help menu, if there is one, for instructions. Finding none there, look on the developer's website, say www.brickmymac.com. (That may not be the actual name of the site; if necessary, search the Web for the product name.) If you don’t find anything on the website or in your search, contact the developer. While you're waiting for a response, download BrickMyMac.dmg and open it. There may be an application in there such as “Uninstall BrickMyMac.” If not, open “BrickMyMac.pkg” and look for an Uninstall button.
    Back up all data before making any changes.
    You will generally have to reboot in order to complete an uninstallation. Until you do that, the uninstallation may have no effect, or unpredictable effects.
    If you can’t remove software in any other way, you’ll have to erase and install OS X. Never install any third-party software unless you're sure you know how to uninstall it; otherwise you may create problems that are very hard to solve.
    WARNING: Trying to remove complex system modifications by hunting for files by name often will not work and may make the problem worse. The same goes for "utilities" such as "AppCleaner" and the like that purport to remove software.

  • No speaker sound after loading Os 6

    After I loaded Os 6 on my iPad 2 my speakers no longer produce any sound. The headphones still work

    If you still have sound in the music and videos apps. You have system sounds muted.
    If you lose sounds for keyboard clicks, games or other apps, email notifications and other notifications, system sounds may have been muted.
    System sounds can be muted and controlled two different ways. The screen lock rotation can be controlled in the same manner as well.
    Settings>General>Use Side Switch to: Mute System sounds. If this option is selected, the switch on the side of the iPad above the volume rocker will mute system sounds.
    If you choose Lock Screen Rotation, then the switch locks the screen. If the screen is locked, you will see a lock icon in the upper right corner next to the battery indicator gauge.
    If you have the side switch set to lock screen rotation then the system sound control is in the task bar. Double tap the home button and in the task bar at the bottom, swipe all the way to the right. The speaker icon is all the way to the left. Tap on it and system sounds will return.
    If you have the side switch set to mute system sounds, then the screen lock rotation can be accessed via the task bar in the same manner as described above.
    This support article from Apple explains how the side switch works.

  • After loading mavericks Facebook will only load once in a while. Usually the blue bar goes half way and just stops and does nothing. Never had a problem before I updated.

    After updating to mavericks, facebook will only load once in a while.  The blue bar goes part way and just stops and does nothing.  Never had this problem before. So far facebook is the only site I have had a problem with.

    You can also try to disable hardware acceleration in Firefox.
    *Tools > Options > Advanced > General > Browsing: "Use hardware acceleration when available"

  • Calendar corrupted after loading Mavericks

    I uploaded Mavericks onto my MBAir this AM and have spent the remainder of the day trying to repair Calendar which is now completely unusable. I have searched through Apple Support but I have no problems similar to mine. FYI I am not on Cloud and Mail appears to be OK. Below is a screen shot of my Calendar page. Any suggestions?

    When I click Calendars, below On My Mac, it shows my email address (not highlighted), then 4 Calendars (all checked), then the word Other (not highlighted), then 3 more Calendars with holidays and birthdays. At the bottom is a calendar of the month. That's it.
    " ... then 4 calendars (all checked). ..."  Is that your intent?  Are you really following four calendars?
    " ... then 4 more calendars with holdiays and birthdays. ..."  I guess holdiays and birthdays are two of the three.  Is there really another calendar in that group you are using?
    So are you really intending to display seven calendars in your Calendar app?

  • Mail Contacts List lost after loading Mavericks ?

    How can I retrieve this ?
    And how can I tell Apple ?

    Send Apple feedback. They won't answer, but at least will know there is a problem. If enough people send feedback, it may get the problem solved sooner.
