Audio streaming on my Mac from an unknown source

Hi. This has happened a couple of times where I don't have any programs running that I can tell and audio starts streaming on my Mac from an unknown source. This last time it was a talk radio. Internet browser is closes and no other programs are open. When I turned off airport it disappeared. Am I being hacked or do I have a virus?

How frustrating??

Won't start app because it says its from an unknown source

Hi,
I can't restate the exact error but it essentially stated that it wouldn't invoke an app because it's from an unknown source. In fact, this is something that is an option in the secure section of our system preferences: "Allow application downloaded from: Mac App Store and Identified developers (that is what it is set at right now.)
Like a lot of Mac uesrs, I use OpenOffice. I was utilzing version 3.4.0 and decided to upgrade to 3.4.1. This is where the issue happened. I attemped to upgrade and after upgrading, it wouldn't let me load the app because it said that the app was from an unidentified developer,etc. You can force it by chainging the setting in the system preferences to allow for everything but it does warn you that this will just make your security riskier. Why would it not recognize the latest version of openoffice 3.4.1 as being an unknown developer??? What should I do about it? Currently, I have left the security setting as it was and the only way I can start the latest open office is by control clicking the icon. Thanks.

Note that you should only have to control-click and choose Open once. After that, it should clear the quarantine flag and allow you to open it normally, without repeating the message. If that's not happening, are you opening the app from an admin account? If not, you probably don't have permission to clear that flag... Try opening it once from an admin account.
if that doesn't help, there's a way to clear that flag manually. I'm on my iPad at the moment and don't have quick and easy access to the command. I'll post it later if you need it.

I reinstalled Itunes a couple of times. I unistalled all programs that I never use, I updated all of my drivers, Windows swept my computer and found no problems. I have a yellow causion lite when I look at the USB-port with the phone connected. All other devices work without a problem.

Audio Stream player : getting informations from the source

Hello everyone,
I'm trying to create a webRadio player, wich different sources.
On a click on a button, the player plays the corresponding flow. I would like to display some informations, like : current music, url, description, ... I think it's possible to have all those informations, because when I play my .pls files in my audio player (winamp), I've got them.
Here is my code corresponding to this part :
private function playSound(e:MouseEvent):void {
            try {
                //Sound release
                pSound.close();
                pChannel.stop();
                //Flow construction
                pSound = new Sound();
                pChannel = new SoundChannel();
            }catch (e:Error) { trace(e.name, e.message); }
            var tmpFlow = new URLRequest(e.currentTarget.name);
            pSound.load(tmpFlow);
            //using pChannel to play the sound allows the source changement on a click on another button
            //Without it, the different sources just surimpose themselves
            pChannel = pSound.play();
            displayInformations();
        private function displayInformations() {
            trace(pSound.id3);
My trace() commaned gives me [object id3Info]
The problem is I'm playing the sound from a url source, not a mp3.
Any idea ?

No, this is not what I am saying.
If MP3 container has id3 tags - you can read them. Also, if MP3 container has metadata and you stream sound with NetStream - you can read it as well. I am not sure about cuepoints though - never done it.
If you are dealing with ohter than MP3 format - you will need to do custom work to read bytes and offsets, etc.

Help with syncing songs to Mac from iPod (unknown type and generation)

My brother got an iPod for Christmas, and my mom had downloaded songs from our aunt's computer. It works just fine, and he can charge it, but we want to put it on my mom's Mac. However, when I tried to transfer purchases from iPod, it said that 100 songs couldn't be transferred and none of the songs showed up on the playlist. My sister's birthday party is today, and we're going to play music with an iPod but I think it would be easiest to do it with just one iPod, and then my iPod could have his songs as well. Please help me! Thank you!

Do you mean that when you disconnect they dont show up?

Hello Achates:
I did not read the rather long post. If you wish to reinstall OS X 10.4, use your software install DVD. Backup is essential. To minimize your risk, I would use an archive and install:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=107120
In that way, you will have a fresh copy of OS X and your current settings will be preserved.
Incidentally, I do not agree that the printer problem is best solved by reinstalling OS X. I have had HP printers for sometime and, on one occasion, had difficulty after an upgrade. HP technical support walked me through uninstalling all traces of the HP driver and then reinstalling.

Problems with volume when streaming a Netflix movie from my Mac Book Pro (Mid 2009) to my flat screen TV?

Hi!
Does anyone know what I need to do in order to turn up the volume when I’m streaming a Netflix movie from my Mac Book Pro (Mid 2009) to my flat screen TV?
I hooked up the HDMI adapter from my Mac to my TV and it is currently in Mirror Mode, but I can’t turn up the volume, the only audio I’m able to adjust is on my Mac.
I’ve already tried: System Preference > Sound > Output > Internal Speakers Built in output. That’s the only option my Mac gives me.
Any suggestions?

Hello jguti,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
I understand that your external display connected via HDMI is not being detected by the computer. At this point, the best bet for your next troubleshooting step would be to reset the system:
Reset the system
You can reset the Mac's parameter RAM and SMC.
Reset the resolution
Start by resetting the Mac's parameter RAM. If the display does not come up, was previously set to an unsupported resolution, and still results in no video:
Start up in Safe Mode.
From the Apple () menu, choose System Preferences.
Choose Displays from the View menu to open the preferences pane.
Select any resolution and refresh rate that your display supports.
Restart your computer.

Take care,

After streaming show on mac mini, the audio of that show streams randomly with no applications open. Is there an audio cache

My husband and son streamed an episode of a show on the mac mini a few months ago. Now with no application launched, the entire audio stream plays on the computer. Where is it coming from and how do I delete it? I have reset safari, with no results. There is nothing to 'force quit'.

Hello,
One way to test is to Safe Boot from the HD, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, Test for action in Safe Mode...
Reboot, test again.
If it only does it in Regular Boot, then it could be some 3rd party add-on, Check System Preferences>Accounts>Login Items window to see if it or something relevant is listed.

Streaming audio from my IPAD to my Apple TV from Rhapsody application. when Apple TV go into Screen Saver mode, about 5 minutes after that it stops playing the Audio Stream and goes into Sleep mode.

I am Streaming audio from my IPAD to my Apple TV from Rhapsody application. when Apple TV go into Screen Saver mode, about 5 minutes after that it stops playing the Audio Stream and goes into Sleep mode. I am using the Optical Out from the Apple TV to my receiver, the Apple TV is hard Wired to the Network, the IPAD is Wirelessly attached to the network (it continues to play the Audio Stream). When the Apple TV is turned back on it resumes playing once I manual select it for output from the IPAD. All device are on current releases of software. I have no Video hooked up to the Apple TV. How do I correct this?

Intermittent problems are often a result of interference. Interference can be caused by other networks in the neighbourhood or from household electrical items.
You can download and install iStumbler (NetStumbler for windows users) to help you see which channels are used by neighbouring networks so that you can avoid them, but iStumbler will not see household items.
Refer to your router manual for instructions on changing your wifi channel or adjusting your multicast rate.
There are other types of problems that can affect networks, but this is by far the most common, hence worth mentioning first. Networks that have inherent issues can be seen to work differently with different versions of the same software. You might also try moving the Apple TV away from other electrical equipment.

Home Theater need. Multiple Audio Streams from 1 card or possible to use 2 car

I currently have 2 SB Li've's installed and a SB Audigy in the box.
I would like to be able to send different audio out to different devices. I need to send audio from a game interface called MAME 32 to a speaker system connected to the PC. I also use this PC as a home theater PC and want to send audio from my DVD playing software out to my TV(in analog stereo mode) and/or to my receiver(in Dolby Digital mode using the digital connector).
I would like to be able to run these seperatly without having to go into the Control Panel and switch the default sound card like I am doing now. I do not need to run them at the same time.

Bummer. Are you guys working on something that might have this capability? Seems to me that the closer we integrate PC's into our entertainment systems the more need we will have for the ability to do multiple audio streams, i.e. MP3's to the living room. DVD movie audio to the family room, XM radio classical station to the kitchen for mom etc..
Intel is offering this as an onboard solution that has the ability to do at least 2 different streams.
