Faint Sounds emanating from the bottom left of iMac

Any ideas?I went to the Mac store on Monday because there are some faint sounds emanating from the bottom left corner of the computer when I am moving about on the web - they suggested I bring the computer in for them to check - firstly, the sounds are not a big issue, secondly I am definitely keeping the new Mac and thirdly I have Applecare, so I won't need to be rushing to see them.

Contact Apple Service, iMac Service or Apple's Express Lane. Do note that since you have AppleCare's protection plan and if you're within 50 miles (80 KM) of an Apple repair station, you're eligible for onsite repair since yours is a desktop machine.

  • Every time I scroll, there's a clicking sound coming from the top left corner of my macbook

    Similar to the clicking sound of my hard drive, every time I scroll, or whenever there is any sort of animation on my screen, there's a similar clicking sound coming from the top left corner on my , around the area where the microphone is. I know the hard drive is at the bottom right corner, so is this a graphics card issue or am I overlooking the issue?

    It is better to take the MBP to the Apple store for evaluation.
    They have the diagnostic tools to make sure that there is no problem with the computer.

    Hi
    It's likely your fan,  It always runs on a MBA.  Mine is very quiet, others report some noise - here is one link.  There are lots of others.
    Hope this helps

  • My link preview has disappeared from the bottom left of the page (it no longer pops up when I hover over a link.) Thoughts on how to get it back? I really LIKE having it!

    My link preview has disappeared from the bottom left of the page (it no longer pops up when I hover over a link.) Thoughts on how to get it back? I really LIKE having it!

    It is possible that the screen is too high and that the scroll bar and the find bar and add-on bar fall off at the bottom.
    If that works then close Firefox (File > Exit/Quit) to save that setting.

  • New Macbook Pro w/ Retina: Random definitions pop-up from the bottom left of my screen when dictionary isn't even open

    My OS is 10.9.3 and I've only had it for a month or so.
    I'll be on Firefox or the desktop and without touching the mouse or keyboard or anything 'var' appears highlighted in yellow at the bottom left corner of my screen and a speech bubble will define it. The definition matches the one for 'var' in the built-in dictionary but I very rarely use it and have not had it open while this has happened.
    It happens about once a week and the word defined has been different 1 or 2 times but mostly its just 'var'. I haven't seen anyone else with this problem and it seems very strange to me. The Macbook also freezes occasionally or has periods of very slow loading; something which never happened with my old Mac White. Do I have a virus or something? What can I do about this?
    Any help would be much appreciated.

    This is not a virus.
    I assume you're seeing something like this?
    Is it appearing over the word "var" appearing in text that is on the screen, or is it floating around somewhere totally inappropriate, almost as if someone had grabbed it and moved it somewhere?
    If it's actually appearing over real text, you may be accidentally triggering it. If you tap the trackpad with three fingers with the cursor over a word, that causes this dictionary pop-up to appear.
    On the other hand, if it's appearing randomly in weird places, it may simply be a glitch in your system. Try restarting the computer. If it keeps coming back, it's probably caused by some third-party software installed on your system.

  • The screen of my IMac 27" seems to have lost some brightness from the bottom left corner ?

    Anyone experimented this kind of problem ?

    No, this is a sign of the screen defects. The screen will flicker, sometimes looks just fine, other times a dark area appears in the lower left quadrant. It may come and go. Having been through this myself I'm a bit familiar with the issue. There have been temporary fixes. But they all require disassembly. Doing so on your own voids any warranty. If you take it to an Apple shop for any future repairs, once they see you've been inside they will refuse to service the computer. This is not a problem resulting from loose screws. If you try to fix the problem yourself, then you are the one with the loose screws. I went down that path, and what was an expensive repair I tried to avoid became an even more expensive repair after Apple refused me service. And, that was when they still had a screen replacement program in place. Don't become a member of my club.

  • When trying to click on menus on USAA, it shows "javascript:;" in the bottom left hand corner and the menu won't work in FF 21. But the menus work in IE 10.

    whenever I go to USAA.com on firefox, I can't click on any of the drop down menus. Instead, a box in the bottom left corner (where a link address would usually show) pops up with "javascript:;". If I use IE10, the site works perfectly. I prefer Firefox so it drives me a little nuts that I have to switch browsers for one site. I've removed all my cookies, cleared the cache, reset Firefox, and run Firefox in safe mode. The website still refuses to play nice. All the regular links on the site work but the drop down menus won't.

    Hi TrinityFire, thank you for the update. It seems wrong that a site could limit you to using one method of "clicking". I wonder whether there is a Firefox setting to always ensure that mouse clicking will work even if your device has a touchscreen?
    Could you check these two preferences and see whether they make any difference:
    (1) In a new tab, type or paste '''about:config''' in the address bar and press Enter. Click the button promising to be careful.
    (2) In the filter box, type or paste '''touch''' and pause while the list is filtered
    (3) Try double-clicking the following to toggle them to false:
    dom.w3c_touch_events.enabled = <s>true (default)</s> ''See Note''<br>
    dom.w3c_touch_events.expose = true (default)
    You might need to restart after changing these settings before they take effect.
    Does this switch the site from touch to mouse click? Or make it stop working altogether?
    ''Note: dom.w3c_touch_events.enabled requires a numeric setting, see cor-el's post below.''

    I am using  iphoto11 in OS lion but do not have the full screen icon at the bottom left hand corner of the screen. where is it?

    Shift - command - f  is the short cut to go to full screen - esc will return from Full screen to normal

  • 2 sweepstakes I have played for months are not allowing me to submit my form Microsoft Office IW/Sour Patch IW.Says on the bottom left javascripts form "0" this just started today. Internet Expl let's me play but my games are on Firefox. Plz advise.

    played both after midnight last night (sour patch kids IW & microsoft office instant win). microsoft office just does nothing when I hit enter & sour patch let's me fill in my email & password then does nothing when I hit enter. I have played both for months. on the bottom left corner as I keep hitting enter it indicates "javascript forms zero & something else. it goes away when I stop hitting enter. I then exited firefox and went to the explorer and then facebook and both games let me in. Please help as all my games and sweeps are listed on firefox. thank you.

    Just an update... A rep contacted me and we did a screen share. They were convinced that I wasn't full of <insert proper word here>. They promised to get back to me in a few days, and now? A few months later? Nothing.
    Still no files. Still no correction... Still no nothing from Adobe.
    The person I spoke to was kind, saying he'd make sure I got CC for free for a while...
    Still though, no follow up.
    Adobe, are you going to correct this or just let your customer suffer at your mistakes?

  • Since the latest Firefox update, the Personas icon (brown fox) that appeared in the bottom left corner, has disappeared. Where did it go and how do I get it back?

    I have a Personas account. The brown fox icon was present in the bottom left corner of my screen before the latest version of Firefox downloaded, but is not there anymore. I have to go to the Personas web site now whenever I want to manage my Persona. Previously, all I had to do was click on the brown fox, and do what I wanted to do from there.
    Why has this changed, and how to I put it back to the way it was before?

    Try this:

    You may need to manually add the icon to your toolbar.
