Headphones sound different with computer and itouch - same eq

So i noticed that when i use my headphones with itunes on my computer, the bass is really good but when i use the same headphones with my ipod, the bass isnt there. Any ideas?

The computer has a more powerful amplifier in it, which can reproduce the bass, but that amplifier requires more power (electricity) to run it. An iPod's battery would run out in about four minutes if it's amplifier was able to produce that much bass.
There are a couple of things you can try. The EQ setting on your iPod might help, or a headphone amplifier. A battery operated headphone amplifier can provide a bit more bass, although it still may not be as powerful as your computer's amp.

My iMac drops settings information. Sounds associated with receiving and sending an email disappear after about a week and return following a restart after a shutdown. Also my picture taken, which was taken about a year ago, recently disappeared.

My iMac drops settings information. Sounds associated with receiving and sending an email disppear after about a week and return following a shutdown and a restart. The cycle contunes. Also, the picture of me that was taken when I bought the iMac more than a year ago and appeared at logon recently disappeared and was replaced by a soccer ball. I took a new picture, which appeared for about a week at logon, and it has now been replace by a blank picture.

The standard procedure with these types of isues is a PRAM reset.
Shut down your Mac.
Locate the following keys on the keyboard: Command (⌘), Option, P, and R. You will need to hold these keys down simultaneously in step 4.
Turn on the computer.
Press and hold the Command-Option-P-R keys before the gray screen appears.
Hold the keys down until the computer restarts and you hear the startup sound for the second time.
Release the keys.

Sound works with headphones but not with computer speakers

I've got an iPhone 3GS and an iPad. A few weeks ago I setup an older pair of computer speakers in my living room and I've been using that as a bookshelf stereo. I just plug in whatever device happens to be around, the phone or iPad to drive the music.
Tonight though, the iPhone will not output any sound to the computer speakers. It will play music through the external speakers without any issue - same for the iPod headphones. Originally I chalked this up to an issue with my speakers, but when I hook the ipad up to them, I get sound.
Any ideas as to what this could be? The phone worked fine until tonight and I've tried to restart the phone and turn it off.

Hey polofson,
Thanks for the question. I understand you are experiencing issues with Siri in relation to your microphone. On the iPhone 5, Siri utilizes both the mic in the receiver opening and the mic near the rear camera. You may want to make sure these are not blocked (commonly by third-party cases):

Ensure that Siri can clearly hear you
If Siri is unable to clearly understand what you are saying, make sure your microphones are not blocked.
iPhone 4s
Verify that the bottom microphone, located to the left of the dock connector, is not blocked.
iPhone 5
Verify that both the mic in the receiver opening and the mic near the rear camera are not blocked.
iPod touch (5th generation)
Verify that the mic near the rear camera is not blocked.
iPad (3rd generation)
Verify that the mic at the top center, above the FaceTime camera, is not blocked.
All models
- If you are using a protective case, try removing it.
- Try turning your device off and then on again.

No TV sound - Problem with Pulseaudio and Gnome

Hi Community!
Since January 2013 I got big problems with the sound of my tvcard. The card is a Sundtek Media TV Pro. But after all the problems have nothing to to with the card itself!
So far I found out, that the problem is with Pulseaudio.
- Sound works under Windows on same PC.
- Sound don't work under Arch - not with tvtime, not with vlc, etc.
- Problem occurs even on a new installed system with the Arch-2013-02-01 install medium.
cat /etc/mediasrv.log
[1033] Pulseaudio connect reported an error (6 - Connection refused)
[1033] select error() in audio processor (can be caused because of pulseaudio) (Interrupted system call)
After setting up a new Arch installation with just xorg-server, gnome, tvtime and the sundtek driver from AUR I run journalctl -b:
Feb 10 16:25:15 hightower pulseaudio[636]: [pulseaudio] pid.c:
Daemon already running.
With sudo journalctl | grep 'Feb 10 16:2' I get the following output:
Feb 10 16:25:01 hightower rtkit-daemon[489]: Successfully made thread 488 of process 488 (/usr/bin/pulseaudio) owned by '120' high priority at nice level -11.

Feb 10 16:28:55 hightower pulseaudio[997]: [pulseaudio] main.c: Start des Daemons fehlgeschlagen.
So, if I understand right, pulseaudio is alreade started by the rtkit-daemon and gnome couldn't start it again.
At https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/30926 I found a hint concerning /etc/xdg/autostart/pulseaudio.desktop and /etc/xdg/autostart/pulseaudio-kde.desktop.
After removing them from /etc/xdg/autostart and running journalctl -b there are no more errors.
With sudo journalctl | grep 'pulseaudio' I get:
sudo journalctl | grep 'Feb 10 17:4' | grep 'pulse*'
Feb 10 17:41:42 hightower rtkit-daemon[485]: Successfully made thread 484 of process 484 (/usr/bin/pulseaudio) owned by '120' high priority at nice level -11.

In my opinion all looks ok! I also checked the channels with the alsamixer and it looks good, too.
So I ran vlc v4l2://:dev=/dev/video0:width=720:height=576:tuner-frequency=510750:adev=/dev/null:standard=255 - but still no sound.
With cat /var/log/mediasrv.log I checked the drivers logfile:

I started tvtime again. This time I ran rm -rf ~/.config/pulse/ and killall pulseaudio to kill the Pulseaudio server. I instantly got a loud noise out of my speakers.
I closed tvtime and re-opened it. And there it was: TV SOUND OUT OF MY SPEAKERS!
But now, when I run pavucontrol I get:
Connection to PulseAudio failed. Automatic retry in 5s.
In this cas this is likely because PULSE_SERVER in the Environment/X11 root Windows Properties or default-server in client.conf is misconfigured.
This situation can also arrise when PulseAudio crashed and left stale details in the X11 Root Windows.
If this is the case, then PuseAudio should autospawn again, or if this is not configured you sould run start-pulseaudio-x11 manually.
I got the information from Sundtek, that Pulseaudio should not be started as system service. Instead, every user should have an own Pulseaudio daemon and that PA was concepted this way. But they don't know how it is implemented in ArchLinux.
I also don't know it exactly. So the question to all you ArchLinu pro's:
How is PA implemented in Arch? And how can I sustainable solve my problem?
Thank you for your time and help!

There is just one more thing I found out.
After logging into Gnome and running ps aux | grep pulse I get:

rebel 843 0.0 0.0 17396 1184 pts/0 D+ 03:03 0:00 grep pulse
To get the sound to work I run:
rm -rf .config/pulse/
killall pulseaudio
killall -9 pulseaudio
I again run ps aux | grep pulse
rebel 4016 4.2 0.2 510124 11528 ? Sl 03:06 0:02 /usr/bin/pulseaudio --start --log-target=syslog

I can recognize that the STATs have changed. Maybe this can help to solve the problem?

SQL Script working differently with 8i and 9i

Hi
I am facing strange problem with my simple SQL script called from a shell script. It bahaves differently with ORACLE 8.1.7.4 and 9.2.0.1. The machine is same.
sqlplus -s / @Tech.sql WKC625 11 11 '11 22' ""
This is working with 9i but it does't work with ORACLE 8.
Actually what happens is that the argument in single quotes (') is taken as 2 separate argument.
The Tech.sql is :
spool add
insert into TECH values ('&1','&2','&3','&4','&5','');
commit;
quit
I tried putting double quotes also. Is something got changes between ORACLE 8 and 9i.
Please help
Surendra

Are you sure it works in 9?
If you are using UNIX, then the O/S will strip the quotes while processing the arguments. You need to use 2 single quotes around 11 22, just as you have around the empty string at the end.
I believe that Windows does the same, but I do not use windows.

How can we see viber messages on computer and iphone same time

I have downloaded viber through itunes on my computer ...can any one tell me how i can configure or any way to see the same message on compuet and iphone same time or any notification to my itunes saying i have recieved msg from some one...........

Good question for Viber customer support.
The Viber app you downloaded with iTunes is for iOS devices only. An iOS app cannot run on your computer such as one of your computer apps can't be installed and run on an iOS device.
Viber would need to have a seperate app available for your computer or access with a browser.

I have experienced great difficulty deleting photos from iPad I have followed advice and synced with computer and iTunes and deleted from computer and then synced again but managed to get hundreds more unwanted photos.

I have had great difficulty deleting photos from iPad I have followed advice and connected to computer and iTunes but cannot find anywhere to click on delete I also deleted photos fro computer and synced again and then found hundreds of more photos on iPad which were unwanted at the same time I lost a film I had purchased from iTunes and The soundtrack of film from iPod

Photos that were synced from your computer you should be able to delete by movin/removing them from where they were synced from and then re-syncing (or de-selecting the whole folder if you want to remove the entire album from the iPad).
Photos taken with the iPad, copied onto it via the camera connection kit, or saved from emails/websites etc can be deleted directly on the iPad - either via the trashcan icon in the top right corner if viewing the photo in full screen, or via the icon of the box with the arrow coming out of it in thumbnail view. They should also appear in Windows Explorer on PC where you can delete them, and in iPhoto on a Mac you can delete them after importing.

Wont start. says is running but not responding. open taskmanager but no firefos under processes. restart computer and get same.

when i click the firefox icon to open firefox it pops up a box that says that firefox is running but not responding. i open taskmager to close the firefox process but there is no firefox process listed. i restart my computer and get the same result. firefox appears to still be running but not responding even after a restart. i even tried a cold boot ad got the same results. performed a full virus scan and excep for some tracking cookies it came up negative. i deleated the firefox kernal and downloaded a new copy and installed it. got same problem.

How do you rip anime dvds with deinterlacing and the same aspect ratio?

Hi I use clips from anime dvds for a hobby of mine. I have a problem. I can't find the right program or the right instruction to convert my m2v or vob files into crsip clean video clips with deinterlacing and low file space. Is Missing Media Burner the right program? What is the step by step process? If you need anymore detail I will be more than happy to say it. I ripped the clips from MAC the Ripper.
Hopkins

Daniel,
Your first post - and - I wonder how many more to follow?
Unlesss you have permissions from the copyright© owner of the material you are using for your "hobby" - you are on very dodgy ground.
If you are a student - working on projects on campus - using the facilities of the University - on found footage - under the auspices of academia - that's different. However, hobby - oh dear oh dear.
As Shane has quite rightly put - "Hmmmmm...."

Authorization problem with computer and Nook

I am tryng to transfer an Overdrive book from my computer to my Nook.
I received a pop-up that said that I could only read the book on the computer because the Nook was not authorized.
However, when I went in to authorize my computer it said that that Adobe ID already existed.
This is the only computer that I have had and I have not exceeded the 8 device limit .
So, why cannot I get it to authorize my computer and Nook?

ADE often gets its authorization confused.
First return the library book ~ it is probably now authorized with the mixed-up id, and you might not be able to return it once your proper ID is registered.
Clear any old authorization using ctrl-shift-D to ADE (cmd-shift-D if on Mac).
Restart ADE.
Try again to authorize ADE with your Adobe ID.
Then you should be able to set the ID into the Nook as well; and borrow the book back again.
Good luck ~ what a rubbish implementation of DRM Adobe has produced....

Since I updated to firefox 7 this month...Ihave no sound on my computer and I know nothing about computers... :(

I updated firefox recently....last couple weeks...I think to 7...and now I have no sound on my computer...I do recall being told that something was no compatible but...oooops...I must have agreed to do it anyway......obviously I know nothing about computers...help...what do I do now. I have to have sound...this is the pits...

See:
* https://support.mozilla.com/kb/No+sound+in+Firefox
* https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Video+or+audio+does+not+play
You can click the Volume icon on the Windows Taskbar near the clock and click the Mixer link at the bottom to open the mixer.<br />
You can adjust the volume level for each application in that window, so make sure that Firefox is not muted or set at a low level.<br />
Current Firefox versions use the plugin-container process to run plugins, so you need to check the volume setting for the plugin-container process.<br />
You will only see the Firefox program or the Plugin Container in the Mixer if you are on a website that plays sound.<br />

My iphone froze while syncing an update. I got it running by restoring it but photos gone! I synced with computer and they did not come back.

my iphone 4 froze while syncing an update. i got it running by restoring it to original settings. i synced with computer but pictures wont come back. How do I get them?

When the restore finished, did you "Set up as new phone" or "Restore from backup?"
When was your last backup?

Onkeypress behaves differently with FF and IE in a table td tag

Here is a sample web page: If you click on the cell with the "abc" (not necessarily on the abc, but in the cell), then type a key, with IE (am using IE9) I get the alert, reporting which key was hit.
With firefox (and, for the record, Safari), I get nothing.
Is there anyway I can achieve something similar - I can't just make the cell an input field...
<html>
<body>
<script type="text/javascript">
function keyhit(e)
var keynum,keychar;
if(window.event) keynum = e.keyCode; // Internet Explorer
else if(e.which) keynum = e.which; // Netscape/Firefox/Opera
keychar = String.fromCharCode(keynum);
alert("You pressed "+keychar);
</script>
Click on the "abc" in the table (or anywhere in that cell, and kit a key.
<table cellspacing=0 border=1 width=120>
<tr height=50>
<td width=60 onkeypress="keyhit(event)">abc</td>
<td width=60>xxx</td>
</tr>
<tr height=50>
<td>xxx</td>
<td>xxx</td>
</tr>
</table>
</body>
</html>

Sharing Music with Computer and Airport Express at the same time?

I just purchased and set up airtunes with some powered speakers.
I cannot figure out how I can play the same music at the same time to shared computers and the Express Powered Speakers at the same time.
Can you help me with configuring instructions please?
iMac G5 with Airport Extreme and DSL w/ iTunes pointing to external hard drive music library.
PowerBook G4 in the kitchen wireless can share music when computer is selected.
Powered Speakers on the screen porch with Airport Express connected can only play music when Express is selected.
How do I fix this so that when we have a dinner party we have the same music in the office, the kitchen and the screen porch all playing together at the same time?
Thanks.
I hope my question is clear as I really would love to sort this out before our party.

Although your problem is slightly different, it seems that you are having the exact same issues that I had just two days ago - solved for me by Felix. If you check the link below, it goes through what I had to do, which was basically to update the software on my airport express base station, which he explains well:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=476631&tstart=30
When I did it, it then gave me the option on iTunes (check the picture at http://www.apple.com/airportexpress/airtunes.html to see the magnified bit on iTunes) and then I could just choose multiple speakers concurrently.
Hope this helps.
