FaceTime loud speaker pop out of iMac after failed call

Hi all,
I have been experiencing a wierd issue lately. I have been using facetime on my mac (Imac 27" 2009 model)  to another buddy who has a brand new mac with facetime. We both have OSX lion and most times it works flawlessly. One nasty thing I have seen is if I try to call him and it fails, if he tries to call me back right away as the call comes in my imacs speakers start poping really loudly. Louder than the volume is set to.. I cant turn it off with the mute either... I end up having to quickly go into facetime and turn it off and then reboot to make it go away.. its really annoying and im afraid its going to hurt my speakers.. anyone else see this?

Also I copied this from my other computer web page:
Reported Phishing website ahead.  Your network ha been monitored.  Your network has been compromised due to Browser hijacking.The browser hijacking software may redirect you towards phishing websites that try to access your Login Password details.  To fix this browser redirection issue we recommend you ask for instant help.  Help Line 1 877 899 1824.
Then another smaller popup window pops up
http://www.pcassists.info
Security Error
Call Helpline 1877 899 1824
So this is what I was talking  about, and the small popup window plus the larger  Window stating "Reported Phishing website ahead" will not go away and I cannot use Safari anymore even after I shut down my computer, disconnected it, and then signed on again and reopened Safari, it still takes me to that page and I cannot get out of it.
PLEASE HELP!!!!!!!!

  • UI locked in unusable state after failed call

    This app is ghastly. I don't think I have ever encountered a more unintuitive, buggy release of a product.  No one should use it.  Hard to navigate through and to its various functions, and it has not, after failing to reach a number in Germany that is out of order, it is locked in some sort of half screen more on my iPhone that makes it unusable.  If you are thinking about using this version, don't.

    Unfortunately, I can't.  I got rid of it by deleting the app and downloading it again.  The best I can do is describe it.  Half the screen was black.  The rest of the screen seemed to show the portion of the app that wasn't blacked out.  Couldn't make anything work, however.  After redownloading, it seems to be working OK.
    It also seemed to be less intuitive than before.  I had a hard time figuring out how to find my Skype credit info and to get to my contacts when trying to make a call.  It seemed to want to try to make use the text messaging function.  Maybe I've just learned where things are now because it seems easier to use.  Annoying for awhile, though.

  • HT4623 My loud speaker went out on my phone how can I get it fixed I've had this phone for about two months?

    How come I can only talk on speakerphone? Even on speakerphone I can barely hear the other person. They can't hear me when I'm not on speakerphone. And my music doesn't play very loud like my speaker is blown. What do I do I've had this phone for about two months and no insurance on it.

  • From the Top: How can I fix my iMac after failed 10.4.3 update?

    I have an iMac G4 (hemispheric base) with 512 extra ram (from Apple). I used software update to upgrade to 10.4.3 After an apparently successful download, the computer refused to reboot. It would get to the desktop (with my usual icons visible) but then the spinning rainbow wheel would never stop.
    == I tried various combinations of rebooting and unplugging. No luck.
    == I tried using the Mac OSX install disk to repair permissions. No change.
    == I tried using the install disk to repair the disk. It said I had an unrepairable error on my disk.
    == I tried booting in safe mode. Computer would always turn itself off.
    == I tried booting in single user mode. It would show a text screen but not really start.
    == I tried using disk warrior ($100). It performed a lengthy repair. Computer now behaves a bit differently (e.g. in safe mode it gets to the log in screen and then hangs rather than turning itself off and when I try to start as usual I still see my custom desktop background but not my icons) but it still will not start. Also, frighteningly, the disk drive will no longer accept the OSX install dvd -- it just spits it out.
    So, I feel stuck. I need some of the data on the computer (including some digital photos of hurricane Wilma damage for insurance purposes) but even if I were willing to do an install and erase, how can I, since the computer does not accept the dvd anymore?
    I know I should have fully backed up and repaired the disk with the install disk ahead of the upgrade. I naively believed the download to be routine. However, I do need the data and do need the computer. Can anyone help?
    Thanks to everyone.

    Hi
    My Powerbook was the same. Only fix is to reinstall OSX from the install CD but be sure not to pick the Format and install clean. Once you boot with the install CD pick the preserve user data and settings.
    On My machine the reinstall looked perfect. My network, email, files and all the programmes were all there. Most apps worked fine but Adobe CS2, Virtual PC and NetBarrier all needed reinastallation as they reported a few files or registration was missing. I went for the 10.4.3 upgrade again and it worked fine.
    Good luck

  • Verizon wiped out my calendar after I called about sluggishness

    I have been having problems with my sluggish Curve 8330, particularly with BlackBerry Messenger and appearing as if I am off-line to my contacts when I am not.  And, I will often send messages and it takes a minute or two to be marked as delivered.
    So, I called Verizon Wireless, who sent me a "service book" whatever that is.  And, when I did a battery pull, my calendar was wiped out.  Tech support blamed it on a memory problem, but I over 35,000,000 bytes free. 
    We tried a one-way sync from Outlook to Device to restore the calendar.  Everything appeared to be working in the Device Manager.  But, it didn't restore my calendar on the device.  The only events that show on the device are events that I "invited" my husband to so he can add the events to his BlackBerry.
    Verizon wants me to start all over and restore my BlackBerry, but I want to be sure I try everything before I wipe it out.  Any suggestions would be helpful.

    I want to make sure that you are up and running with phone calls on your cell phone. Let's get right to work. What zip code are you in? As Ann154 stated, are you up to date with the latest software for the iPhone 6? Are you still able to send/receive text messages? When you try to call out, are you getting any kind of error message or is it just dead air? Please keep us posted.

  • Loud speaker when play music or on phone call is quiet

    When I play music on the speaker my sound is very quiet on my iphone like the max volume isnt that much and louspeaker when im on the phone is very quiet I was just wondering how to fix it I think its the dust that has got into it blockinbg some of the little holes and just wondering how to clean it I have a 3g 8gb iphone if that helps thanks.

    No, there's nothing wrong with it in all likelihood.
    The single speaker is only 1mm across so you shouldn't expect a big volume - I assume you have turned up the loudspeaker volume ?

  • E71 Gets stuck after loud speaker is used in a pho...

    Hi all,
    My first post...
    I only got my phone this week and have used the nokia updater to get the latest firmware (dont know what it is exactly).
    I've noticed that after I use the loud speaker/ hands free setting in a phone call the phone gets stuck on the "front page". It wont go into the menu page by any means, or any other page at that.
    [edit] I have to turn the phone off and on again to get it unstuck. [edit]
    Has any one else experienced this?
    Cheers,
    Roddersf.

    I haven't been able to correlate this with loudspeaker use, but I have experienced the same symptom.
    After some usage (it may, or may not involve loudspeaker being activated), menu gets "stuck" behind the home screen. That is, upon pressing the menu button once, I can see a bit of menu screen appearing in top right corner of the screen, but I can't navigate it; it's almost like there is some bug in z-buffer ordering of the screens being rendered, and/or it also prevents the screen getting focus. I can still switch between the apps already running via the menu button press-and-hold though.
    Didn't find a way to cure this except by switching the phone off/on.
    Quite annoying.
    This is on 100.07.76 RM-357 phone, will report if this continues after I upgrade to the latest firmware soonish.
    P.S. At least one of my friends is experiencing exactly the same behaviour on his E71.

  • IMAC freezing, hang during startup, loud noise coming out from the speaker

    I am using the iMAC i3 Intel based which i bought it just a month ago
    Last week it hang, freeze just like that without me launch any application just yet
    I hold the ON button for a restart, and it freeze during the startup
    One more thing, sometimes when it freeze, there's a noise coming out from the speaker ( just like there is no signal from the TV )
    Already sent it to the Apple Service Center but they tell me it is free from any error, but by the time i bring it back home, not even 12 hours, it freeze again just like that with loud noises coming out from the speaker.
    Btw did i mention, sometimes there's also a screen distortion
    Please somebody help me

    I've experienced similar symptoms to the original poster's description. I have an iMac 27" 2010 model. This may be related to the following:
    I've looked on numerous forums regarding the freezing problem I was having. This problem would arise on a wide range of systems.
    Symptoms included but were not all always present - usually when I am loading the system with games/heavy load processes:
    - Full system freeze, screen still on.
    - Loud cracking noise coming from speakers (relative to what volume was at when the freeze happened).
    - Computer asleep but I cannot wake up unless hard reset with power button.
    - My screen backlight was also damaged (permanently dimmed) near the left side, and progressively got worse over time. This was fixed (replaced LCD 27" display $600+ and covered by my creditcard extended warranty)
    Basically, what I've come to realize which has not been well documented as far as I could find relating to this problem - is that the system is overheating and causing these freezing errors (and LCD damage in my case). Prologned occurances could result in different system part failures.
    How do you fix the overheating problem? Give this a try, it's worked so far for me and I've actually been able to continue video/photo editing without having this annoying freeze.
    Search for and download 'iStat Pro' (widget addon that lets you monitor your system temperatures... compare it before and after the fix)
    Search for and download 'SMCFanControl (a great little app that allows you to change your system fan speeds) - I did not know this was possible, and have never heard the fans go this high when it was being run automatically by the system. The fan's are obviously louder when set to max, but is well worth the system cooling results.

  • Each time my iMac reboots i am prompted to enter my FaceTime password.  This just started occurring after the most recent security update.

    Each time my iMac reboots I am prompted to enter my FaceTime password.  This just started occurring after the most recent security update.  When I put my password in the pop up just comes back, if I press cancle it goes away.  Any ideas on how to get rid of this annoying popup?

    I had the same problem. Try this. Launch FaceTime. Click the toggle to turn it off; or Command-K. Quit. Do a restart, you shouldn't get the popup. You could then turn FaceTime back on if you wish. Either way, the popup should be gone from then on.

  • Speaker keeps making a small popping noise after a call

    Right after a call whether on speaker phone or not the speaker keeps popping. Very small noise, hardly noticeable, but it eventually keeps getting louder and pops in about 10-15 sec intervals.
    I don't think I care about the noise, it's hardly audible, but is it taking away the little battery life it has?

    Hi
    Plenty of threads by the look of it:
    http://discussions.apple.com/search.jspa?search=Go&q=10.4.10+popping
    As far as I can tell, it happens to people with external speakers. I have no external speakers at all, no popping.
