Horrible buzzing noise whilst on charge

Hi all...not sure if anyone has had the same problem but when my Mac is plugged into charge and I have audio or video playing I have this awful buzzing noise in the back ground but when unplugged the audio is perfect - maybe there is some kind of electrical interference happening but it is getting a bit serious as I am a musician and I need total clarity with my recordings. Has anyone had this before? Please help?
(Was thinking maybe a shielding issue or something)
Thanks in advance!

Are you using a third party power supply? I've heard some of these cause hum / buzzing. If you look at the comments here for example:

  • Apple TV totally crazy buzzing noise

    After I come home from work I like to listen to music via Apple TV - my tv set is driving the stereo system.
    However, when I go to System Preferences > Sound > Output and click on "Apple TV" a totally crazy, irritating, super loud, horrible buzzing noise starts.
    I read many discussions, websites, and can report things that DO NOT WORK:
    - killing coreaudiod , either with Terminal or Activity Monitor. coreaudiod restarts, but buzzing noise remains
    - restarting Apple TV
    The only thing that helps is to reboot my MacBook Air. Then it's fine until next evening.
    Any other solution? Does Apple know about this bug?

    Welcome to the  Discussion Forums.
    Could be a number of things are you able to use any other components (different lead etc) to isolate the problem area.

  • Buzzing noise when fast forwarding live tv

    After pausing live tv, then fast forwarding, it's started to make a buzzing noise whilst forwarding then stops when playing.  It doesn't do it when rewinding.
    Anyone else experienced this?

    Yes I've been getting this since the new update. Buzzing whenever FF or RW on demand, recordings etc, even sometimes when changing between adds on 4oD. It sounds like something to do with the hard disk. I've just put it down to an ageing box reaching the end of its life, sad really but I suppose 2yrs is what we should expect from these types of products.
    How old is your box?

  • Audio problem; buzzing noise (HP Spectre XT TouchSmart 15-4011nr)

    Hi, I recently bought an HP Spectre XT TouchSmart 15-4011nr Ultrabook. I'm getting this annoying buzzing noise while listening to music or streaming movies. The store change my laptop for another one and after a few minutes listening I got the same behaviour on the new (same model) laptop. Is this a model problem? Is there anyone with the same problem?

    Solution found for me.  First, a little background.   I have a HP Spectre XT Touchsmart 15-4010NR and also have the same annoying  buzzing noise.  Usually lasts less than a second and is intermittent.  Counted it 13 times in four minutes of a YouTube audio file.  Time between the buzzes varies significantly ranging from a second or two to over a minute.  Once during the four minutes the audio cut out completely for less than a second.  My solution, I unplugged the AC adapter.  No more problem whatsoever as long as I'm on the battery.  Tried this multiple times, plugging the AC back in for a few minutes, then the same on battery.  The result, the buzzing occurs only when the AC is plugged in, and does not occur at all when on battery power.  The AC power adapter provides power and charges the battery normally.  Not sure what to conclude from this.  I suppose the AC power adapter or cord could have an issue.  Not going to go out and buy another one to test whether this is the case.  It's an inconvenience, but I'll just unplug the AC power when listening to audio.  If I listened to long recordings or movies this could become a real issue.  I'd be curious to know if it's a hardware problem, or something I could adjust in the settings on the computer, or something else like a grounding issue.   Interested if others can confirm my findings and expand on them.  out

  • Hearing some weird buzzing noise

    I have a problem. For reason, after I wake up my MBP from sleep, it makes this really weird buzzing noise somewhere from the middle of the laptop. It sounds like something electrical is short circuiting or something. This isn't normal correct? Because if it is, it's really loud and super annoying. Has anyone else had this issue before? It's happening on my 15" MBP, Core 2 Duo, 2.16 GHz. I bought it from Apple store Stonestown, and it's not even 3 weeks old yet.
    Should I go see the genius? I don't think he's going to be able to hear the whine/buzz noise since it's always loud there..argh, what an annoyance.

    My MBB which is a 2.0 core duo I bought a year ago, has just started making a noise that comes from the same area. Its more like a fluttery buzz. Sounds something that is rotating rapidly and and slightly clipping something--like maybe something is misalligned. Not horribly loud, but very annoying. And it goes away when I turn the laptop completely upside down, which again makes me thing something is just loose. I have been traveling a lot lately and assume that just bumping through airport security etc. might be the problem.
    Is this something the apple store could possibly fix on site or does it sound like a drive replacement issue. Also, has anyone replaced a MATSHITADVD-R UJ-857 with a faster one? And if how much will that cost and what are pros and cons?

  • IPod making high pitched buzzing noise

    I've had my iPod over two years now, maybe three but it's always worked and hasn't had any problems. The other day I connected it to a cheap second hand Pod station that a friend had been lent. The pod station wouldn't play my iPod and nothing much happened so I resolved that my iPod was just too old to work on it and took it back out again. When I tried to turn on my iPod afterwards it wouldn't do anything so I thought that the battery had probably just been drained out and it would be fine when I took it home and connected it to my computer.
    However when I did so the iPod did not appear on the desktop or in iTunes and the screen remained blank. I kept trying but the same would continue to happen and I began to notice that now whenever I plug in the iPod a very high pitched buzzing noise comes from the iPod which scares me a little as it's so unusual. I have tried resetting and pretty much all of the suggested solutions on the apple site and in other discussions but none work. Nothing seems to work and the iPod does absolutely nothing. Is there anything at all that I can do or does this mean that my iPod has simply finally had it?
    I wouldn't have thought that just a cheap Pod station would be enough to cause such a major problem with it.
    Any help would be very much appreciated please!

    If a sad iPod icon or an exclamation point and folder icon appears on your iPod’s screen, or with sounds of clicking or HD whirring, it is usually the sign of a hard drive problem and you have the power to do something about it now. Your silver bullet of resolving your iPod issue – is to restore your iPod to factory settings.
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=60983
    If you're having trouble, try these steps at different levels one at a time until the issue is resolved. These steps will often whip your iPod back into shape.
    Make sure you do all the following “TRYs”
    A. Try to wait 30 minutes while iPod is charging.
    B. Try another FireWire or USB through Dock Connector cable.
    C. Try another FireWire or USB port on your computer .
    D. Try to disconnect all devices from your computer's FireWire and USB ports.
    E. Try to download and install the latest version of iPod software and iTunes
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    For old and other versions of iPod updater for window you can get here
    http://www.ipodwizard.net/showthread.php?t=7369
    F. Try these five steps (known as the five Rs) and it would conquer most iPod issues.
    http://www.apple.com/support/ipod/five_rs/
    G. Try to put the iPod into Disk Mode if it fails to appear on the desktop
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93651
    If none of these steps address the issue, you may need to go to Intermediate level listed below in logical order. Check from the top of the lists to see if that is what keeping iPod from appearing on your computer in order for doing the Restore.
    Intermediate Level
    A. Try to connect your iPod with another computer with the iPod updater pre-installed.
    B. Still can’t see your iPod, put it in Disk Mode and connect with a computer, instead of doing a Restore on iPod Updater. Go and format the iPod instead.
    For Mac computer
    1. Open the disk utility, hope your iPod appears there (left hand side), highlight it
    2. Go to Tab “Partition”, click either “Delete” or “Partition”, if fails, skip this step and go to 3
    3. Go to Tab “Erase” , choose Volume Format as “MAC OS Extended (Journaled), and click Erase, again if fails, skip it and go to 4
    4. Same as step 3, but open the “Security Options....” and choose “Zero Out Data” before click Erase. It will take 1 to 2 hours to complete.
    5. Eject your iPod and do a Reset
    6. Open the iTunes 7 and click “Restore”
    For Window computer
    Go to folder “My Computer”
    Hope you can see your iPod there and right click on the iPod
    Choose “Format”. Ensure the settings are at “Default” and that “Quick Format” is not checked
    Now select “Format”
    Eject your iPod and do a Reset
    Open the iTunes 7 and click “Restore”
    In case you do not manage to do a “Format” on a window computer, try to use some 3rd party disk utility software, e.g.“HP USB Disk Storage Format Tool”.

    C. Windows users having trouble with their iPods should locate a Mac user. In many cases when an iPod won't show up on a PC that it will show up on the Mac. Then it can be restored. When the PC user returns to his computer the iPod will be recognized by the PC, reformatted for the PC, and usable again. By the way, it works in reverse too. A Mac user often can get his iPod back by connecting it to a PC and restoring it.
    Tips
    a. It does not matter whether the format is completed or not, the key is to erase (or partly) the corrupted firmware files on the Hard Drive of the iPod. After that, when the iPod re-connected with a computer, it will be recognized as an fresh external hard drive, it will show up on the iTunes 7.
    b. It is not a difficult issue for a Mac user to find a window base computer, for a PC user, if they can’t find any Mac user, they can go to a nearest Apple Shop for a favor.
    c. You may need to switch around the PC and Mac, try to do several attempts between “Format” and “Restore”

    Advance Level
    A. Diagnostic mode solution
    If you have tried trouble shooting your iPod to no avail after all the steps above, chances are your iPod has a hardware problem. The iPod's built-in Diagnostic Mode is a quick and easy way to determine if you have a "bad" iPod.
    You need to restart your iPod before putting it into Diagnostic Mode. Check that your hold switch is off by sliding the switch away from the headphone jack. Toggle it on and off to be safe.
    Press and hold the following combination of buttons simultaneously for approximately 10 seconds to reset the iPod.
    iPod 1G to 3G: "Menu" and "Play/Pause"
    iPod 4G+ (includes Photo, Nano, Video, and Mini): "Menu" and "Select"
    The Apple logo will appear and you should feel the hard drive spinning up. Press and hold the following sequence of buttons:
    iPod 1G to 3G: "REW", "FFW" and "Select"
    iPod 4G+ (includes Photo, Nano, Video, and Mini): "Back" and "Select"
    You will hear an audible chirp sound (3G models and higher) and the Apple logo should appear backwards. You are now in Diagnostic Mode. Navigate the list of tests using "REW" and "FFW". The scroll wheel will not function while in diagnostic mode. For further details on Diagnostic mode can be found at http://www.methodshop.com/mp3/ipodsupport/diagnosticmode/
    Try to do the 5in1, HDD R/W and HDD scan tests. Some successful cases have been reported after the running the few tests under the Diagnostic mode. In case it does not work in your case, and the scan tests reports show some errors then it proves your iPod has a hardware problem and it needs a repairing service.
    B. Format your iPod with a start disk
    I have not tried this solution myself, I heard that there were few successful cases that the users managed to get their iPod (you must put your iPod in disk mode before connecting with a computer) mounted by the computer, which was booted by a system startup disk. For Mac, you can use the Disk Utility (on the Tiger OS system disk), for PC user, you can use the window OS system disk. Try to find a way to reformat your iPod, again it does not matter which format (FAT32, NTFS or HFS+) you choose, the key is to erase the corrupted system files on the iPod. Then eject your iPod and do a Reset to switch out from Disk Mode. Reboot your computer at the normal way, connect your iPod back with it, open the iPod updater, and hopefully your iPod will appear there for the Restore.
    If none of these steps address the issue, your iPod may need to be repaired.
    Consider setting up a mail-in repair for your iPod http://depot.info.apple.com/ipod/
    Or visit your local Apple Retail Store http://www.apple.com/retail/
    In case your iPod is no longer covered by the warranty and you want to find a second repairing company, you can try iPodResQ or ifixit at your own risk

    Just in case that you are at the following situation
    Your iPod warranty is expired
    You don’t want to pay any service charges
    You are prepared to buy a new one
    You can’t accept the re-sell value of your broken iPod
    Rather than leave your iPod as paper-weight or throw it away.
    You can try the following, but again, only do it as your last resort and at your own risk.
    Warning !!!! – It may or may not manage to solve your problem, and with a risk that you may further damage your iPod, which end up as an expensive paper weight or you need to pay more higher repairing cost. Therefore, please re-consider again whether you want to try the next level

    1. . Disconnecting the Hard Drive and battery inside the iPod – Warning !! Your iPod warranty will be waived once you open the iPod.
    In Hong Kong there are some electronic shops offering an iPod service for Sad iPod, the first thing they do is to open up the iPod’s case and disconnecting the battery and the Hard Drive from the main board of the iPod. Wait for 5-10 minutes and reconnecting them back. The reason behind which I can think of is to do a fully reset of a processor of the iPod. In case you want do it itself and you believe that you are good on fixing the electronics devices and have experience to deal with small bits of electronic parts, then you can read the following of how to open the iPod case for battery and HDD replacement (with Quicktimes)

    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=2438774#2438774
    Have I tried these myself? No, I am afraid to do it myself as I am squeamish about tinkering inside electronic devices, I have few experiences that either I broke the parts (which are normally tiny or fragile) or failed to put the parts back to the main case. Therefore, I agree with suggestion to have it fixed by a Pro.

    Finally, I read a fair comments from dwb, regarding of slapping the back of the iPod multiple times
    Quote “This has been discussed numerous times as a 'fix'. It does work, at least for a while. In fact I remember using the same basic trick to revive Seagate and Quantam drives back in the mid to late 1980's. Why these tiny hard drives go bad I don't know - could be the actuator gets stuck in place or misaligned. Could be the platter gets stuck or the motor gets stuck. 'Stiction' was a problem for drives back in the 80's. Unfortunately the fix can cause damage to the platter so we temporarily fix one problem by creating another. But I know of two instances where a little slap onto the table revived the iPods and they are still worked a year or more later.”UnQuote

  • MBP 15'' retina display making a constant buzzing noise

    I purchased my first MBP about three months ago, I have been wanting one for years and FINALLY
    saved up enough, I use it everyday and have never had a problem, until now..
    There is a weird buzzing noise, it's super annoying and it's constant..
    I just tipped it upwards to listen, and it started making a horrible scratching noise, along with the buzzing. (not doing that again)
    However the buzzing is still constant, the only time it stops is when it is shut off completely. 
    I just want it to go away!!!!!
    I'm absolutely heartbroken about this.
    does anyone have any suggestions on what my next move should be?
    It is sunday so all the mac stores will be closed by the time i am off work.
    Should I stop using it? I don't want to make it worse.
    HELP! PLEASE!
    ,Molly

    Are you using a case or something?
    Do a reset (Hold Sleep/Wake and Home buttons about 10 secs or more till Apple logo appears, ignore the Slide to Power Off that appears)
    Note: You will not lose any data.

  • Ultrabook/Notebook freezing and making loud buzzing noise

    I just received via UPS a HP Pavilion 11 x2 PC 11-h010nr for my daughter for Christmas.  I decided to let her open it as her one before Christmas present and I am glad I did.  She went into xbox music to listen to her new beats audio sound.  On about the 3rd song the loudest annoying buzzing noise came out of the screen portion and the screen was frozen (she had it detached from the keyboard).  She hit the power button and the noise stopped.  She got back into xbox music and about the 2nd song this time it did it again.  She started to cry and very upset because she thought it was broke and would take a very long time for us to get it fixed and she gets a replacement.  Needless to say her Christmas has just turned into a really bad Christmas.  Also today I brought the notebook with me to work to see if the problem continues and as I was putting the song on Pause/Play the noise occured, the screen did not freeze but the noise did occur.

    It's an issue with hundreds of phones.  Some claim it's software related, some hardware, some say it's a mixture of both.
    Some people have had temporary success with quitting the Phone.app / restoring as a new phone / restoring from an iCloud backup / disabling Siri / toggling speakerphone on & off...
    Unfortunately all of the above only been temporary, with the problem recurring again after a few calls, or a few days etc.
    So far the only solution that seems permanent has been to replace the phone.  But even so, it's the luck of the draw to recieve a functional phone, and not another faulty one.
    I'm completely annoyed as there is no Apple Store near me...... and Apple haven't even acknowledged the issue, despite the above thread being 34 pages long, as of writing.

  • New imac and a buzzing noise - is it normal because it's irritating?

    Hello peeps,
    I got my new imac delivered today. Most things are fab, but I'm a bit disappointed with a buzzing noise that only happens when I reduce the brightness of the screen using the slider in the display icon under system preferences. If I keep it at optimum brightness the buzzing doesn't happen. Is there any way of darkening the screen another way?
    I'm finding it big and too bright initially as I'm not used to a 24" screen. Is this something that happens or should I send it back?
    Anyone care to try theirs and see for me? I would really appreciate this as it's really bothering me and I don't want to complain if I don't have to.

  • Broken power board ZIF and buzzing noise

    Hey all,
    This is my first post on the forum! Thanks so much for providing such a welcoming atmosphere.
    I have a GE70 20E laptop that I disassembled recently to do some repairs on, and when I was putting it back together I snapped the little black plastic thing that holds the power board connector in place.
    I looked up some guides for the problem and eventually took the ZIF, replaced it as best I could, and held it down with electrical tape. The computer booted and everything was mostly fine. The power and fan indicators weren't lighting up, but I had a functional laptop. Eventually I started hearing little popping sounds coming from that area of the computer that I attributed to a speaker problem because it mostly happened when the volume was high. About a day ago the popping graduated to full-blown buzzing, which scared me.
    I went in and reapplied the electrical tape to the ZIF and power board connector and it fixed the power and fan indicators, but the popping remains. In light of that, three questions.
    1) Is the laptop safe to use?
    2) Is there a more permanent solution I should be trying?
    3) Failing that, does anyone have any tips on how to better the electrical tape fix?
    Thanks so much for your help!

    It's definitely not the speakers! I was using Skype and the buzzing got worse when I starting using the onboard webcam - it's definitely the power board connector. Last night I did some poking around and got the buzzing noise reduced, but I just did it by scotch taping this
    over the connector. With that in place the sound works fine, the indicators are working, and the only sign that there's any problem at all is a crackle on start-up that goes away after a minute. Assuming it's stable and it stays functional, should I just be happy with that? I'm worried that taking it to a repair place would cost me a bunch of money I don't have for a fix that's basically no better than what I already did. I'm mostly just worried that the problem will come back now that I've got it working - those connectors seem really precarious.

  • The strap of my bag broke when my laptop was in it, now it is making a buzzing noise all the time and sometimes get a bit warm. I have warranty with protection plan, how do I fix it?

    The strap of my bag broke when my laptop was in it, now it is making a buzzing noise all the time when I am using it. I have warranty with protection plan, how do I fix it?

    Take it in and have it assessed. They do not have to know about the bag incident unless the explicitly ask for the specific details (like when you are being questioned by a TSA screener, LEO, etc.). As far as you know, the noise started up and it is getting warm. With luck it is just an unbalanced fan that needs replacement.

  • Satellite A30: HDD started to make a buzzing noise

    Hello,
    The hard drive has started to make a buzzing noise on my A30, I guess this is not good news, i.e. it is Kaput?
    I downloaded HDDLife which tells me the hard drive is all ok, but I don't feel very confident.
    I have backed up everything, and am thinking about a replacement hard drive.
    So I have two Q's:
    Should I get a new hard drive?
    & if so, then would one of these be compatible?

    Thanks

    Hi
    These are not great news.
    3 month ago my HDD went dead. It was a simply head crash.
    A day before it happened I have noticed strange sound coming from notebook inside.
    But I was not sure if its a HDD sound.
    So day after I wanted to start the notebook but the BIOS has not recognized the HDD.
    So I have replaced a hdd and all was ok.
    So take care. Maybe the same will happen to you.
    I dont know if the 80GB will work but as far as I can remember some A30 was delivered with a 40GB HDD.
    SO maybe you will be able to use a 60GB but Im not sure about the 80GB. You have to test it, you know
    PS. The notebook should support the enhanced IDE (ATA-5) interface

  • B570 hangs while making a buzzing noise - error 0x80041003

    a video was being played in my chrome browser and while I lift my laptop up to relocate, the browser crashed and cause a memory leak and the whole system froze and there was a humming audio sound and no matter what key I pressed nothing happened, even closing down the lid did nothing.  I had to force a shutdown by pressing the power button. Error codes below:
    This is what really what I was forced to do:
    "The system has rebooted without cleanly shutting down first. This error could be caused if the system stopped responding, crashed, or lost power unexpectedly."
    DCOM got error "1084" attempting to start the service ShellHWDetection with arguments "" in order to run the server:

    hi andrewjamaica,
    Welcome to the Lenovo Community.
    The buzzing noise that you heard is due to the system being halted (always happens when your playing a music or a video when the PC hangs). As for the error 0x80041003, Microsoft published an article regarding this issue and it appears that it was caused by updating your windows machine.
    You can find the Microsoft Fix It here:

    Hope this helps.
