Facetime users report that my Facetime audio has static

The built-in mic on MacBook pro seems to prouce static-laden audio when in use. I can't reproduce the problem on my end by recording something with the built-in mic, and when I switch to a USB mic while on Facetime, the problem goes away.
I'm using Mavericks 10.9.1 on an 13" early 2011 Macbook Pro.

This is a normal message sent by Apple if you have reset or reinstalled software on an Apple device and is there to make you aware that either (a) you have used your Apple ID on the device concerned, or (b) if you have no reason to believe that you have restored or reset a device, you have a potential security breach and should change your Apple ID security password.

  • Video audio has static

    I just recorded a 6 minute song at a concert last night and it has static sound throughout. I never had this problem before. Any suggestions?

    Hi roygbiv28,
    You will typically get static when the sound or music you are recording is too loud. The BlackBerry® smartphone's microphone, as with all microphones, have limitations on decibel levels.
    Thanks.

  • Utilizing SQ01 SQ02 for user report generation of production data

    I am interested in utilizing sap query transactions SQ01, SQ02, and SQ03 to create and customize end user reports that will be used  by our audit team to analyze SAP data in our production environment. My objective would be to have one person with authorization to run SQ01,02,03 and have that user create all the reports that would be required for the team to use. This way there isn't a bunch of users out there using SQ01 indiscriminately or perhaps not using it at all. I currently have authorization to run SQVI but it is limited. From what I understand there is more flexibility with SQ01 because they allow you to create calculated fields and offer more formatting options. Most of these reports would be related to finance, sales, vendor, customer, etc.
    My question is this. How do I create these custom queries and allow multiple users to access and run them? Are the queries created directly in production? Are they created in DEV and then tested in QA before being transported to Prod? I understand you can map an sap query program to a transaction and then add that to a role but isn't the program name generated by SQ01 different in every instance? I would like this code to be reproducible as I have 5 different SAP instances in which these reports would be used. Same reports, different data.
    I am looking to leverage the power of SAP query to produce meaningful reports for our team without having to use programmers to develop them from scratch. What is the optimal approach to doing this without creating a lot of hassles and without creating additional security risks?
    If I create a query based on SAP tables I have access to does the general user also have to have authorization to those tables in order for the query to run for them? In theory the entire team should have authorization to the same standard SAP tables because we all have the same roles assigned but I may have some additional tables assigned to me because I am the IT auditor. Just confirming.
    I appreciate any and all suggestions. I would like to proceed with the best solution as soon as possible.
    Thank you very much.
    Mark

    Hi Mark,
    It is best to create queries in dev rather than doing it in prd directly.
    Query user group can be used to control the access in production.
    You can have one query administrator with access to sq01,2,3 and sqvi who will assign query user group to respective users in prd so they can run these.

  • I have two facetime users, both connecting to our enterprise wireless network (Cisco WCS) and they can't make a facetime connection from IPAD to IPAD.  Are there any apple protocols or other settings that need to be enabled on WCS?  No firewall involved.

    I have two facetime users, both connecting to our enterprise wireless network (Cisco WCS) and they can't make a facetime connection from IPAD to IPAD.  Are there any apple protocols or other settings that need to be enabled on WCS?  There is no firewall inbetween the two connections, as this is all on our internal network. 
    Both devices can connect to the network, but when they try to talk to each other they can't make the connection.
    Thanks.

    If anyone ever comes across this and has the same issue, here's what I did to fix it:
    My Linksys router has a Network Mode setting, and I had to change it from "Mixed" to "Wireless-G only".  (I would've used N but one of the NICs in my house is too old to support it.)  Anyway, after making this change, Facetime works fine on the phone.  Hope this helps someone else!

  • How do I get a list of the reports that a user has access to?

    <p>I need to be able to determine which reports a specified user has access to.  This is for an application where users will be able to search and view reports that have been archived through a separate process.  </p><p>I&#39;ve searched through the developer library, but I can&#39;t find this specific information.  Can I use the ObjectPrinicpals class to get this info?</p><p>Thanks!</p><p>-Dell<br /></p>

    Hi Robert!
    Yes, the presentation went well. It was a lot of fun to do and I had a great time at the conference.
    Your suggestion works great if I'm walking down through the reports looking to see who has access to them.Â
    However, I need to do this starting from the User object. When I use the ObjectPrincipals of the User, I get a list of the users who have the rights to modify the user. I did a lot of work on this last week and it boils down to I'm going to have to actually log in as the user (I can use trusted authentication to do this without having the user's password) and then run a query to select all of the reports in the system - this should give me just the reports that the user has access to. Not the most efficient way to get the data from my perspective, but it should work.
    This would be a great feature to have added to future versions of the SDK. I need it for a couple of purposes:
    1. To gather information to set up the security in my archive viewer application.
    2. For auditing purposes - we currently have only Professional licenses so I don't have access to the internal auditing functionality. Plus, I'm not sure that that includes the kind of info I'm looking for so I'm building an app that extracts information to XML which is then used by a couple of reports so that I can provide the audit info as needed.

  • How to get Reports for specific User that how many password has been reset using FIM SSPR in FIM 2010 R2 SSPR

    Hi,
    How to get Reports for specific User that how many password has been reset using FIM SSPR in FIM 2010 R2 SSPR
    Regards
    Anil Kumar

    Hello there Anil,
    A simple way to quickly get a overview is to look at the request history within the portal environment (note that this will expire in a few day based on your environment, after that you would need to FIM Reporting Module - but you could increase this to
    maybe 60 days to so, watch the DB size).
    To do this you could create some custom search scopes of do some custom queries. The creator of the SSPR activities always has the same GUID so you can use that so search.
    In your search scope you can use the following XPath to play with.
    - All Password Reset Requests - /Request[Creator='b0b36673-d43b-4cfa-a7a2-aff14fd90522' and Operation='Put']
    - All Completed Password Reset Requests - /Request[Creator='b0b36673-d43b-4cfa-a7a2-aff14fd90522' and RequestStatus=‘Completed']
    You can play with the "RequestStatus".
    Hope this helps.

  • FaceTime, User Not Available

    For some reason, when people try to connect to me via FaceTime, they get a message saying that "the user is not available to FaceTime."
    In this particular istance ...
    I try to FaceTime between two computers in my house, mine and my wife's.
    My wife launches FaceTime and tries to connect to my computer, but gets the message that I'm not available for FaceTime. We are both on a wired network, not WiFi. Her computer is running Lion 10.7. I'm running 10.7.1. FaceTime is not running on my computer when she tries to connect. However, if I launch FaceTime, she still gets the message that I'm not available.
    I can connect from to her via FaceTime from my computer, regardless of whether she has FaceTime running or not.
    FaceTime has no preferences, so I guess there's nothing I can do there.
    Are there some System Preferences that could cause this issue?

    Firewalls typically are the most frequent cause.  Modems, routers, Sharing System Preferences, Security System Preferences all play a roll.  To learn more about firewall settings for Facetime, see:

  • Facetime: user not available right away after dial

    When I am trying to do a Facetime Call (Audio and Facetime video), it gives right away a message of "User not available for Facetime". This number used to work no problem before. I tried to do a test with another Iphone to find the reason why this happened. So I found out that it couldn't be a number block nor a Facetime being turned off. Anyone know the reason why it jumps directly to the message of "User not available"?
    It seems like an auto-decline incoming calls, but Iphone does not have such option.
    Thanks

    Theres nothing wrong with your phone, it could mean any if the following:
    The person(s) you are callig have blocked you
    The person(s) have a dead phone
    The person(s) aren't accepting calls
    Hope I helped!

  • USELESS ONLINE HELP FACILITIES For all the amazing productivity aids that APPLE offers the world I have to report that their online support service is worse than useless and has recently been the source of immense time wasting and irritation.

    USELESS ONLINE HELP FACILITIES
    For all the amazing productivity aids that APPLE offers the world I have to report that their online support service is worse than useless and has recently been the source of immense time wasting and irritation.
    Incident 1. Since many months attempts to download new and updated APPs produced a response – Apple ID Disabled. I had no time to consult an APPLE Store due to work in distant lands. When I finally visited yesterday I was told that as my IPAD has been reported as stolen, and APPLE in its wisdom had blocked its usage! I am not sure how they became so misinformed and nobody every advised me while with a few swift moves APPLE could have located me by email address or SKYPE.
    Incident 2. Once the above anomaly had been fixed I tried to down load a newspaper and diligently input my address, credit card number and personal data. Repeatedly I was advised that my Credit Card was invalid and my postal code was incorrect! Really!
    I was left to guess that having moved from UK to the US I should have advised APPLE! Not being told of this requirement brought about a second visit to APPLE Store in the same day to waste both mine and their time with a routine anomaly. How parochial in the context of a globalized world!
    In each case I tried to resolve the issues using online access to a help line and by calling by phone at the numbers on the APPLE Website. In each of four separate occasions I diligently went through the routine and  ended up with a message that thanked me for contacting Apple followed by a polite ‘Good Bye’!
    In desperation I went to an Apple Store for the second time in a day as it is close to where I live when I am not working. On both occasions I was courteously attended to by Apple Staff.
    However, my work is usually far away from the US and it is generally many thousands of miles to the nearest Apple Store therefore online help is viewed as imperative if one is to resolve issues away from home.
    Why can Apple not provide a clearly marked EMAIL address and Telephone number at a Help Desk with real people to respond to requests for help? It would cost nothing in relative terms and might restore my high level of anti-APPLE sentiment that these two recent events have provoked.

    Why can Apple not provide a clearly marked EMAIL address and Telephone number at a Help Desk with real people to respond to requests for help?
    If that is your question, the answer is at the bottom right of this web page. It is clearly marked "Contact Us" and is the best way, really the only way, to contact Apple.
    If there were a publicly posted email address for concerns such as yours, it would be quickly filled with spam in about three minutes, thereby becoming instantly useless to you and everyone else. Apple would need to change it hourly, if not more often. That is also the reason you ought not to post your name, location, and what appears to be your iPad's serial number on this publicly viewable website.
    Apple does not respond here and I can find no other questions for your fellow Apple users to answer.

  • TS4185 Mac Facetime Issues now that i have iphone

    i recently got an iphone and i have had a mac for a long time.  before i had my iphone, my mac facetime worked all the time.  now that the iphone is running, i cant get my facetime to work on the mac anymore.  call fails as soon as it is answered.  help

    Hey there LKalbach,
    It sounds like you unable to make a call from your Apple ID in iMessage because the calls fail. I would start by checking to see if perhaps your computer needs to be re verified with FaceTime.
    Activating FaceTime for Mac
    Use your Apple ID to register and use FaceTime. FaceTime registration validates your Apple ID and email address for use with FaceTime.
    If you are unable to activate FaceTime, try the following:
    Sign in to FaceTime for Mac using a valid Apple ID. After you validate the email address for use with FaceTime, other FaceTime users can connect to you using that email address. If you encounter issues registering or using an Apple ID account:
    Ensure that you have an active Internet connection.
    Verify that you are using a valid Apple ID at appleid.apple.com. You can also create an Apple ID or reset your password from this website.
    Check that your email address is verified in FaceTime > Preferences.If FaceTime > Preferences shows your email status as "verifying," follow the instructions in the verification email that was sent to complete the process.
    Toggle FaceTime off and on in FaceTime > Preferences.
    If still unable to Sign In follow the instructions in FaceTime, Game Center, Messages on OS X: Troubleshooting Sign in
    If are still unable to make calls with FaceTime, I do not know if you have tried these steps from the following article, but I would try them next:
    Troubleshooting FaceTime for Mac
    You can make FaceTime calls using the FaceTime app. You can call FaceTime users whose contact information is in Contacts. You can add contacts and edit contact information in either FaceTime or Contacts. To place a video call, you may use a phone number or email address.
    If you encounter issues making or receiving FaceTime calls, try the following:
    Verify that FaceTime is enabled in FaceTime > Preferences.If the issue persists, or if you see the message "Waiting for Activation", try toggling FaceTime off and then on.
    Verify that the Date, Time, and Time Zone are set correctly:
    From the Apple () menu, choose System Preferences > Date & Time > Date & Time.
    Enable "Set Automatically".
    Click the Time Zone tab and confirm the closest city is correct.
    Verify that both parties are connected to an active broadband Internet connection.
    See Mac OS X: Troubleshooting a cable modem, DSL, or LAN Internet connection.
    Consult Using FaceTime behind a firewall for necessary ports to open in firewalls, security software and routers.
    If you encounter issues using a Wi-Fi network, use standard Wi-Fi network troubleshooting to resolve interference and other issues.
    Verify the phone number or email address being used is the correct one activated for FaceTime.You can verify that you are using a valid Apple ID at appleid.apple.com. You can also create an Apple ID or reset your password from this website.

    Why you bought from the UAE .
    The phone has NO international warranty and its the UAE and Saudia Arabian authorities that have instructed the function (facetime) to be removed not Apple.
    Your best option is to return it to Dubai when next there.
    OR contact these companies and see if you can trade to a Facetime friendly model from Europe

    Check to see if you have an old phone number associated with this person in your address book. When you call someone on Facetime it calls ALL numbers/emails associated with that persons contact sheet! This was my problem, this stranger has my husband's old phone number!
