High pitched and prone to breaking up phone calls via Continuity through iPhone 5s on computer end

On my Mid 2011 Mac mini running OS X 10.10, when I attempt to call someone through my iPhone 5s, the sound is extremely high pitched and prone to breaking up on my end. It sounds fine on the other end, when I use my iPad 2, and when I just call on my iPhone. Any idea why? Sound recording of my voicemail login prompt from my Mac: https://mega.co.nz/#!ocRWgLoD!P-Ps_mHRgXAag1jfaYPU2ZpGfECVP2YR9Z-E4G4Z4Sk

I'm experiencing the same issue between my 5s (8.0.2) and my late 2012 Mini (10.10). It reminds me of the kind of sounds you get with digital audio clocking issues between devices. I've scoured the internet, tried several different solutions, and nothing has worked yet.

IPhone 6 Plus 64GB (iOS 8.1 or 8.1.1) springboard crashes repeatedly when making phone calls via Continuity on Macbook Pro Retina Mid 2014 using Yosemite 10.10.1

I USED TO be able to make phone calls using continuity on my MacBook Pro (Retina, 15-inch, Mid 2014) with Yosemite (10.10) via my iPhone 6 Plus on iOS 8.1 without any problems. Once I updated Yosemite to 10.10.1, my iPhone's springboard would continually crash where it brings up the Apple logo and quickly restarts repeatedly until I end the call. Just so that you know, I am able to stay on the call while this is occurring the whole time.
I need to reiterate, this all started happening as soon as I updated Yosemite to 10.10.1 while still on iOS 8.1. I know this because I made a few phone calls (loving the feature), updated Yosemite to 10.10.1, then made a few phone calls afterwards, and this started happening.
When iOS 8.1.1 came out, I eagerly updated hoping this issue would go away, and it did not. I'm hoping Apple notices this post. If anyone else has this problem, please contact Apple and chime in this post as well. Thank you Apple for incorporating continuity calling. I love this feature, but need to use it without my phone's springboard constantly crashing.

I have this issue as well. I am using an iPhone 6 plus, iPad Air 2, 5K iMac, and MacBook Pro. When I make a continuity calls from any device, the springboard crashes. This only happens with outgoing calls, incoming calls are functioning normal. I am currently working with multiple Apple Senior Advisors, and they are working directly with iOS a engineers. I have an active open case and will update this thread when a resolution is found.
Just a tip for everyone with this issue, restoring your devices and setting them up as new WILL NOT correct this issue. Save yourself the hassle. I did this with my iPhone, iPad, and MacBook and the issue still persists.

On my iPhone 4, people cant hear me when I make and / or receive normal (GSM) phone calls. But when on calls using internet based / native apps like viber or skype, people can hear me just fine. Voice memos work too and have already tried different SIMs

On my iPhone 4, people cant hear me when I make and / or receive normal (GSM) phone calls. But when I make/receive calls using internet-based / native apps like viber or skype, people can hear me just fine. I have tried recording my voice using voice memos - this works. And have already tried different SIM cards but the problem persists.
I have taken my phone to an authorized Apple service center, where they restored my phone to factory settings, but still facing the same issue. They service center directed me to Apple Customer Care Hotline, where I have now spent 3+ hours explaining my issue and yet no one can resolve it. The easy answer if to replace the phone - and since it is out of warranty, I am expected to pay for it.
Additionally, the customer service has been so rude and confrontational that it has completely changed my view of Apple and its customer focus. I am a disappointed and angry customer today - people would be surprised to hear just how rude customer service was including making statements such as "Apple doesnt make infallible products, that's why warranty is needed for our products" and that "every product undergoes a problem at some stage, so do ours!" There goes whatever confidence I had...
My concern is simple - if no one at Apple and / or its CS hotline is able to address my issue comprhensively and keep telling me that they have never encountered a precedent before, then with what right can they expect me to pay for a replacement?! I am NOT here to fund Apple's research into their product faults and manufacturing.
And even though a customer is out of warranty, is it too much to expect an Apple product to work well for at least a 'reasonable' period of time. My phone is less than 18 months old and has been facing this issue for the past 2 months - surely the longevity of Apple products is more than 18 months!
Just a sad sad day for an Apple customer, compounded by unjustifiably rude and aggressive staff. And still no resolution to my problem.

I am having the same issue - with my last 2 iPhone 4's. My first handset each time I was on a call wether it was up to my ear or on loud speaker, the call would automatically mute even though the mute button wouldn't show up as highlighted. Pressing the mute button on and off during the call doesn't fix it either. I rang Apple and asked what some of their trouble shooting solutions were. I got told that it might be a software issue and to install the latest software update. This failed. I then got told to uninstall the software on the phone and do a complete restore. This also failed. After trying the troubleshooting suggestions, I took the phone into my provider and they sent me out a new phone within a week under warranty claiming it was a hardware issue and probably just a "glitch" with that particular phone. This was not the case....
After receiving my second iPhone 4, I was hopeful that it would work. For the first couple of days, making/receiving calls was not an issue. Until after about a week, the same problem started again. In one instance I had to hang up and call back 4 times and the call would still automatically mute after about 5 seconds. Also on the second handset, the main camera located on the back of the phone has red and blue lines running through it and can't take a decent picture. So back to the store I go to get another replacement - Again.
For a phone that is rated highly and as a keen Apple product purchaser, I am a bit disappointed with the experience I have had with the iPhone 4. Let's hope they find a fix sometime soon because this is becoming a bit beyond a joke.....!!

I upgraded to a 4g and the most recent backup (today) is not showing up. I went ahead and backed up and found that my texts, phone calls and messages did not backup.

I upgraded to a 4g and the most recent backup (today) is not showing up. The most recent backup that showed was 3/3/12. I went ahead and backed up to that date and found that my texts, phone calls and messages are the part that did not backup.
Can anyone tell me 1) why my most recent backup did not show in ITunes, 2) why I could not backup using the Cloud (I tried this way first), 3) how I can get all the phone calls, messages and texts from 3/3/12 until today? Please help if you can...thanks!

I found the answer on:
transferring Txt messages from old phone to new iphone 4
It worked great!

Iphone is disabled and old will allow emergency phone calls, how can I enter password

iphone is disables and will only allow emergency phone calls, how can I enter a password to unlock it?

Just restore it by putting the phone into DFU mode. You will loose every thing but it will be back to normal pal
Press and hold power and home button together for 10 seconds by connecting it to cable, leave the power button but keep holding the home button for 30 seconds and it will go into DFU mode. Open Itunes and just perform a restore or update

My iPhone 4 shows the carrier name, I can go online with my data plan, but there are no bars and I can't make phone calls.

It worked for some time, less than a week, I made phone calls and all, and all of a sudden the problem mentioned above happened. Now I can't make any phone calls. I can go online with it, even with my Data plan, I can go to the app store (of course) but can't make any phone calls.
Please help, this is frustrating.

Did you already try the troubleshooting mentioned here? http://www.apple.com/support/iphone/assistant/calls/
Also try to reset the phone by holding the sleep and home button until the Apple lo comes up again. You will not lose any data doing this.

I just got my phone replaced and I can't make phone calls. It says I have service and I can literally do everything else, including FaceTime, but no phone calls?!?!

try resetting your network settings, it just resets wifi and carrier settings, no data

Is it possible to access my calendar while on a phone call on my Verizon iPhone?

When I'm on a phone call on my Verizon iPhone 4, it doesn't appear that I can leave the phone screen to view, for example, my calendar. Is there a way to access my calendar while on a phone call? Thanks in advance for your time and responses.

During a call, press the home button (note the green bar at the top of the screen). Navigate to your Calendar app and open it.
The Calendar app won't be able to update OTA during the call but you should be able to see everything that was there before the call.

Want to make phone calls via bluetooth on my iPhone from iPad

I can link my Garmin GPS to my iPhone via Bluetooth and make or receive phone calls.
I would like an iPas app that provides the sametype functionality including:
Make calls
Receive calls
Look uphone numbers
Is this possible? Using what app?

There are a couple of Apps out there that will allow you to use a Google Voice phone number to make and recieve calls via the iPad. I'm not sure exactly what you are trying to do. If you are trying to replicate the Garmin / iPhone setup I don't think that is possible.
Google Voice setup - gvconnect and talkatone. (wifi)
Skype - I think that you can make phone calls via Skype and Wifi.
I don't have a clue as if it is possible to make a phone call over 3G via the iPad.

Is there a software in which I can hook up my iPhone 4s to my computer and send and receive text messages and calls (via headset) through my computer? Whether it's free or cost money, can someone please give me a name of a program or software that allows me to do this? I can't seem to find anything like this for the iPhone.

No.

I am triying to manually add files to my iphone and dont let me. When I check mark on manually manage box on itunes and then apply, itunes said that I already synced my iphone in other computer. I never had use another itunes to synced my iphone.
How can I solve these stupid restrictions?

Where are iTunes files located?
No, I do not mean just the music. Copying just the media/music files or the media folder creates problems.

Very High Pitched and Super Quiet beep/sound from DV6

They seem to make a new DV6 every year but This one is mine.
I've had this notebook since September and its awesome. But there is a very annoying issue I have always had with it. When I'm using it in a very quiet environment I can hear it emit a high pitched beep type sound every second. Its extremely quiet but its one of those sounds your brain suddenly notices and you can't stop hearing it - like when some old CRT monitors and tube TV's are left on. I usually only hear it when the PC is idle or doing very basic tasks like I'm doing now typing this. I thought for sure it was something else in my home for the first month until I was using the notebook someplace else and heard the same annoying sound. When I put my ear up to the notebook I can hear it better and that its somehow tied with the fan. I can hear the fan barely slow down by probably 5%, then that beep and the fan speeds up again. This happens continuously until I'm not idle. Anyone else notice this? My motherboard was replaced a month ago (It randomly died) but nothing changed.

Seems to be normal "CPU whine". Nothing can really be done about it. I've just been lucky with my notebooks in the past not having a whine. I set my networked storage a little closer to where I sit and it cancels out the CPU whine.

High pitched whine from netbook when power is plugged in. Does not charge when computer is on.

I have a specific power / charging issue On HP Mini Netbook 210-1077CA. Windows 7 starter ( I think)
With the computer OFF ...
When I plug in the power it gives a high pitched whine. Red battery light is on, showing it is charging. (computer is off.)
To test the computer I have turned in on after charging for a little while and the % of charge is increasing. Showing that it is charging properly.
HOWEVER,
With the computer ON
The battery light turns white and does not stay on, but flashes periodically. Its not a constant flash but a pause of several seconds between a series of flashes. The manual indicates a Flashing Battery light seems to indicate either going into a sleep mode because there is not enough battery power (however my power is at 14% normally this happens I think at 10%) OR as the manual indicates there is a problem with the battery.
I removed battery, removed power plug and then pushed power button holding for 15 seconds. No change in behaviour.
I also tried to boot the computer with just the power plug in and no battery. But it would not turn on. I don't know if that is normal or not?? Interestingly the White battery light, while trying to turn the computer on without the battery stayed white no flash. (but did not turn on either as I mentioned.)
I read a few posts that say that the whining are Capacitors doing some sort of harmonics. Although I have never heard this sound before.
Im sure that this problem is not fans or heat sinks etc. Since in only happens when the computer is off and charging. In my opinion its definitely electrical. The sound seems to be coming from the center of the netbook or the battery area..
So my conclusion is ...
1. Battery has problem and needs to be replace,
2. Maybe the AC adapter is bad, since it doesnt boot w/out battery (if it is suppose to ??) Also since it seems when I turn it on it goes from Red charging to white flashing as soon as it starts to boot. Could it be the AC adapter is not giving out enough power to charge and to boot at the same time.
Anyway can anyone help me on this issue. Im not sure whether to start by getting a new AC adapter or new battery. I would not like to buy new both and just throw money at it.
Maybe it is not either???
You help would be appreciated.
Regards.

I have resolved the problem.
I replaced the AC adapter. Everying works find now. I tested runing the computer without the battery, and it works. So I might add that a possible test for an adapter that is not functioning properly is to try running it w/out the battery. If it does not run its possible that the ac adapter does not work.
Thanks.
