Cooling Fan Noise Through USB And Recording Software

Anyone know how to keep the cooling fan from making a pop in recording software and through the USB port while hooked to an interface and pa system. The pop comes when the fan turns on or off.
Thanks for any help

Fixed my own problem... if anyone else has this issue and sees this all I had to do was update to ML 10.8.3 and it took care of what ever bug was in the system.

Vaio E series - Cooling Fan noise

Hello, 2 weeks ago I bought Vaio E series. I was very excited that I will have Vaio laptop. It was like my dream wish. According to our standard, we are poor country and the Vaio laptops are extremely expensive. But, Vaio laptops are know for high quallity laptops and great support from Sony. So, I bought it. I am very satisfied with the quality. But I have one problem. The cooling fan is making a lot of noise even the CPU usage its 10 %. I have the latest BIOS version. So, Sony I am expecting from you to release a new BIOS update fixing this issue.. I dont want to start thinking that I pay a lot of money only for the name. With that money I could buy a more powerful machine but I put my trust in Sony. The model number is Model # SVE17122CXB. PS. Don't say that I should go to service center because they can do nothing. I am an IT student and I know how this stuff works. And I dont want the fact that the new laptop will be repaired. So the only solution is BIOS update. Sony, do not make me regret that I have chosen you before other brands.
I am expecting a positive feedback.

t0n1,
Engineering came back saying that fan speed control is not supported on the SVE17 hardware so there is no way on this model to control the fan speed manually. I apologize for suggesting this initially, at the time I did not have your exact model at my desk but instead I had a very similar one (SVE14A)
I also received two SVE17 notebooks and both have extremely quiet fan (especially if CPU usage is very low). Loud fan noise is not a characteristic of this model.
If you feel that the fan on your SVE17 is abnormally loud, then you have two options at this point:
1) You can make a audio/video recording of this fan noise and post it for me to review; after that i can try to give you more suggestions or let you know if this is in fact normal or not. At this time you do not mention that your computer is shutting off, so the unit is not overheating.
2) Or you can consider service. (I realize you initially refused service in your original post, but sometimes some new thermal sheets or re-seating of the heat-sink can address these issues.

Recently I've been getting repeating static noise through USB connected devices in GarageBand

I've been using GarageBand for recording for the past year. Only recently have I encountered an issue with the use of ANY usb connected device. I'm using a Macbook Pro Retina 15" and the connected devices I've encountered the issue with are a Blue Snowball Mic, M-Audio Axiom 49 Midi Controller, and guitars plugged in via a Rocksmith Cable... pretty much any time I record through USB I get a repeating static noise approximately every 35 seconds that lasts for 2-3 seconds. The noise is very prevalent and sounds very much like what cell signal noise sounds like. I tested putting my iPhone into Airplane mode hoping that would solve the issue but to no avail.
I've been using this same exact setup for over a year and only in the last month has there been any problem like this.
Anyone else seeing this problem and does anyone know of a solution... it's pretty much rendered GarageBand useless for recording at this point for me.

Fixed my own problem... if anyone else has this issue and sees this all I had to do was update to ML 10.8.3 and it took care of what ever bug was in the system.

Unable to hear and record software instruments

I can only hear and record my Korg TR Music Workstation instruments. How can I hear/record the software instruments (from Logic Express 9, Garage Band/Jam Packs)? I have my Korg connected to the computer through an M-Audio recording interface.

You can hear them by:
1. Making sure your midi input is functioning (see a little movement in the transport box)
2. Selecting a virtual instrument in the box just above the 'out' box above the track volume slider
3. Play the chosen instrument from midi keyboard, or draw a region, open, play vertical keyboard on Left side with mouse.
I hope you don't really try to record instruments in the Jam Packs because they're not instruments.
As far as I know , they're loops.

Increased fan noise, CPU temp and random fan rpm bursts when using Leopard

I have a 2.2 Ghz Macbook Pro that I purchased in August 2007. I was running OS X Tiger on my mac till about a week ago when I decided to upgrade to OS X Leopard. Ever since the install, I've been facing numerous problems and issues with the general functionality of the computer. Specifically, the biggest issue relates to increased fan noise and random bursts of increased fan rpm (as monitored using iStat). I did not have any of these issues when using OS X Tiger. Further upgrading to 10.5.1 wasn't helpful either as it did not resolve the issue.

Welcome to Apple Discussions!
It may be worth running the Apple Hardware Test, just in case you have a sensor going out or something like that. Sometimes and upgrade will cause an underlying problem to make itself known.
Did you do an Upgrade as opposed to an Archive and Install or an Erase and Install? If so, there could be some software problem associated with the issues you are having. I tried an Archive and Install, and had so many issues that I went ahead and did an Erase and Install. I've had no problems since.
Good luck!

Fixing Fan Noise Created Keychain and Connectivity Problem

This will kind of be long so bare with me...
I occasionally will get the dreaded "fan running out of control/noise" scenario with my Power Mac G5 Dual 2Ghz (Mac OS 10.5.6). I usually run through the usual steps, re-set PMU switch, re-set nvram, run repairs with Disk Utility, boot up under a different startup disk, etc. Eventually something works and the fan returns to normal. This time around none of those steps worked but after 20 minutes the fan went back to normal by itself. Go figure...
At the same time this was happening, my computer would not connect to the Internet. The router's (which is connect to a cable modem) status lights said I was connected but my computer could not automatically get the DHCP information nor could it reach the router's control panel via Safari. I have a PC also hooked up and it was connecting to Internet fine and it was able to access the router's control panel via Firefox. At this point, I was hoping the ethernet hardware was not going bad.
Not only that, I could not access my keychain formation. When I selected any items and tried to show password, it gave me the error message about unable to access keychain item. I ran First Aid on the Keychain and it reported no problems.
My main startup disk is running Mac OS 10.5.6. This version of the OS has been running fine for the past couple of days before all this happened. I have a second startup disk which has Mac OS 10.4.x installed. I tried to boot up with that startup disk (OS 10.4.x) and the computer was able to connect to the Internet fine. That ruled out the hardware. I booted up with the main disk (OS 10.5.6) again. Surprisingly enough I had Internet connectivity again. My keychain was almost back to normal. The only problem is that for any item I select to show password for, a pop up window appears saying "Keychain Access wants to user your confidential information stored in "xxxxx" in your keychain. Once I select the Always Allow button the information is displayed.
So my questions are:
1. Why did my computer "refuse" to connect to the internet in this odd manner?
(BTW -- I am using OpenDNS with the router, could this have contributed to the connectivity issue?)
2. Why did booting up with a different startup disk seemingly corrected the problem?
3. In the Keychain, is there a way to apply "Always Allow" as a group instead of one by one?
4. Is this an unforeseen side effect of updating to OS 10.5.6?
5. Could any of this have been avoided?
Thanks.

FYI to all the helpful folks here (and any looking to shut their jet engine off as well): Flashing the BIOS did the trick.
First I had to find a website with DOS OS files and put those on the USB instead of Vista. Oldie but a goodie, but at least it booted! No other versions would.
I had been intending to use the WinPhlash utility that Lenovo supplied with the BIOS update but since I was booting from DOS that was useless. However, I found a DOS version of it and used that instead. Boom baby! Flashed and rebooted.
It did take two boots to get it back to normal (first one gave very alarming messages about no operating system being found but I think it was just a remnant of the reboot that was triggered from the DOS session). A second boot returned life to normal and blissful silence from the server. And I was finally able to get the model and serial number back in there to get rid of the bootup message it throws for that too.
Ahhhhhhh.
Thanks to all for the hints - I believe I had gotten the idea of flashing the BIOS to solve this from some other thread I found here. This is a very nice forum to have bookmarked.

Satellite M45: High pitched noise through USB

I plugged in a USB Bluetooth device, when I disconnect it there is a high whistling, which stops when the harddisk is running. The only way to stop it constantly is to keep the bluetooth stick connected, which is annoying at times. Any suggestions? Thanks, Nick

Sorry, where do I find "Safely Remove Hardware"?
I was able to disable the driver for the bluetooth device, but then the noise would come back, the only way I can get rid of this enervating buzzing noise is to disable the appropriate USB Universal Host Controller, but then the mouse doesn't work anymore.
On a trip I can disable it and just use the touchpad, but to connect the mouse I have to reactivate the USB Controller and to connect the Bluetooth device to avoid the buzzing.
Maybe I can resolve the problem through removing the hardware like you mentioned, please describe where to find it.... Thank you!

Sending pictures through text and recording videos with the Iphone

so yea i know its not out and idk if apple is working on it but i think it would be really cool. I'm 14 years old and i own an iphone and its like i could do more with my lame verizon phone. another thing is u cant record videos... all the money they are putting into the iphone and it can't even do some of the standard camera phone abilities. i'm just suggesting so don't think i'm like ranting about how the iphone ***** because its really cool i love it! not everybody has an iphone so not everybody's email is going to there phone and some times there are pictures id really like to send to my friends like the other day i was riding my bike listening to music and it started pouring then it let up and i saw a rainbow so i pulled out my iPhone and i took pictures and i really wanted to send them to a friend but there email doesn't go directly to there phone.
and off topic what would be really sweet would is wireless head phones lol like ugh the wires always getting in my way and id really like to just listen to music in school hehe. not like the phone thingy but and actual ear bud thingy like the white apple headphones but cut the wire off and it just sends the audio wirelessly to the head phones
thanks,
Bradley S. F.

Possible solution iMac cooling fan stuck on high and loud

Had iMac go to sleep and just died, no lights or anything, power switch ignored me. Unplugging from wall, holding button in various ways on and after power up did not help in any way. Read articles on knowledge base and googled the web. Finally decided to pull out the round power plug on the rear of the iMac which to a regular user does not even look like it comes loose but it does. I checked the end with a volt meter and saw 120 volts ac and knew the cord was good. Plugged it into the Imac then momentarily touched the power switch and wham the iMac came on with a fury and the fan on super high speed. I'd never heard any of the iMacs in the house ever sound this loud, even on hot summer days. Pulled my hair out for a while but then repeated the steps removing the power cord from the back of the iMac, not the floor, and this time I pressed and held the power switch after plugging the AC back in and held it until I heard a beep, maybe 10+ sec. Of course I knew this worked because I could hear the iMac coming on quietly but making normal noises the moment I touched and held the power button. Now the system is working great again and I,m not looking at bringing it into a service center for no reason and injected more possible problems. I started another topic on the power on issue but I just wanted to document what I found and make it easier for someone else to get a search hit on a solution.
Here's the other thread and hope it helps someone else.

Charge Battery through USB without Loading Software?

Hi All,
Anyone who can please assist; would appreciate it. Have been trying to investigate whether a Blackberry Battery can be charged via USB (Connected to a PC or Laptop) without having the Blackberry Desktop Software loaded.
Currently I have the Blackberry 8900 but even with the previous versions; I have never been able to charge my phone without having the Software loaded. Unfortunately my laptop is loaded with Windows XP 2002 Service Pack 2 and when loading the Software it seems to mess with the speed and sometimes ends Outlook and gives me a Blue ERROR screen which then I have to switch off my PC and then switch on after 5 minutes only. This sometimes happens 3 times in one day?
Please advise, anyone, anyone!!!!

Also, check that you are using only root USB ports...no hubs (sometimes the front-side ports are hubs...use a rear USB port). And make sure to try disabling USB power management in your system configuration (Device Manager).
Apologies in advance if this is redundant -- there's no way to be sure if you've already seen and tried these.

Yes.

Fan noise after 10.7.4 software update

I updated my MacBook Pro to the 10.7.4 software and since then it seems as though the fan has been running more frequently for no apparent reason. Has anybody else experienced this? Thanks for any info

Cooling Fan N200 3000 Ticking and Buzzing

Hey
I was sitting at my labtop, and suddenly it began doing small ticks, 10min later it began to be worse. And now it is doing tick sounds when its cooling. (5 sec inbetween, its cooling) - also I can hear small peebpeeb sounds. Very low, but it is comming from the same place of the computer (left side).
If I open up the computer in the back to check if everything sits where it should will I break the warranty of the computer? - At the moment, I would really not like sending my labtop to service because I am doing the finish of a major project at the moment.
The computer is less tha ½ a year old - never been dropped or anything.
What to do?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

And I just checked the video of how to remove the fan/cooler. But it did not say anything with the warranty not being broke.
I just really want to be sure that I can atleast check how things look like inthere without breaking the warranty. Because it would be a shame to send the computer to service for 2-3 weeks and then it has been a minor problem, which I in fact could do my self.
And I am not going to replace any components, and it only said at the page I looked at, that the warranty is gone if you replace component.
But if you just open up your computer with a bit of care and a light hand? Would that break the warranty?

After updating my 3gs to ios5 nothing works properly the phone is slow, no service, rapid battery drain, excessive heat when in use for longer periods of time, does not connect to vehicle stereo through usb, and screen is on but not responding to control

my 3gs battery dies rapidly and gives off excessive heat when in use no service anywhere, slow reponse time sometimes not at all like lights on but no one home, calls drop can text no 3g can not connect to vehicle usb as a note i restored the phone from my back up

Same problems, unfortunatley I updated to 5.0 1 hour before going on holiday for three weeks and no way to restore my phone to try to remove it.At the same time, drop outs, range problems and the most annoying was my music and apps were corrupted and would not function properly :-(
