I want speakers that do not buzz with the iPhone near them.

Has anyone found any good speakers for their computer system that do not buzz when their iPhone (or any other GSM phone) is around them?
I have some old Altec Lansing speakers on my computer and my wife's computer and they go crazy whenever she or I are on one of our phones and anywhere near the computers.
Anyone have any good suggestions for a new pair of speakers?
Thanks
MacBook Pro 15"   Mac OS X (10.4.10)  

It might not be the speakers that are the problem. I think that the wire that goes from the computer to the speaker also contributes.
As an example, I have a headset for my work phone. It has a long cable from the phone to the headset. When my iPhone is near the cable and I'm on the phone, I hear the interference. If I move the phone away, the interference goes away. It has more to do with the position of the iPhone relative to the cable than to the speaker on my ear.
Another example is when I've used a wireless microphone when speaking to an audience. If my phone is in my pocket and I'm speaking, the proximity of the phone to the wire connecting the microphone to the transmitter causes the interference. I simply have to move the phone away from the wire.
Effectively, I think the wires/cables that connect speakers to the computer are acting as an antenna that is picking up the interference. So you might get the best shielded speakers, but you also have to do something about the wire as well. This might explain why when you went to the computer store, there wasn't much of a problem, because the wires connecting computers to the different speakers may have been short.

  • HT4972 After upgrading iPhone 4 to iOS 5.1.1 getting the error "iTunes could not restore the iPhone because the backup was corrupt or not compatible with the iPhone that is being restored" HELP!

    I attempted to upgrade my iPhone 4 to iOS 5.1.1. I selected 'back up' from the phone in the device menu and iTunes confirmed that the phone had been backed up. I then installed iOS 5.1.1 which wiped everything on the phone & now I am getting the error "iTunes could not restore the iPhone because the backup was corrupt or not compatible with the iPhone that is being restored".
    I have tried restoring factory settings but iTunes simply will not restore from back up & I'm not sure what else to do!
    Any advice would be much appreciated.

    I have the same issue and I KNOW my backup IS good. What happen is when you try to restore your phone apple says something like can I check for new updates and if you choose no, it just takes you back to the restore screen and a loop from then on.  If you dont update from you phone then when you back up you will have the 5.0.1 back up and then when you update to 5.1.1 and then try to restore the backup from 5.0.1 it say it EITHER corrupt or incompatible.. It is incompatible and its hard as **** to restore back to 5.0.1. I followed the restore to a T and still getting errors. I lost all text history and have to reset up email. All just because I wanted a 1.2 Gigs of "other" space back.

    If you want to reformat your machine and re-install all your apps and then restore from an earlier version of Time Machine  you can. However if I were you I'd update the apps.

  • I recently had to purchase a new iPhone 4S.  I backed up my old 4s to my iMac and when I went to restore, I got this message "iTunes could not restore the iPhone because the backup was corrupt or not compatible with the iPhone that is being restored".

    I recently had to purchase a new iPhone 4S.  I backed up my old 4s to my iMac and when I went to restore, I got this message "iTunes could not restore the iPhone because the backup was corrupt or not compatible with the iPhone that is being restored".  I just purchased the iPhone 4S today so I know it's not the phone.  How can I get my information back?

    If it's corrupt, generally it would be lost.
    However, there is third-party software out there that can retrieve some of the data, those of which however I could not recommend as I have never done so myself.
    Also, if the old 4S was running a more recent software version than the current 4S, that may cause the issue however usually iTunes tells you exactly that.
    Good luck in retrieving that information.

  • ITunes could not restore iPhone because the backup was corrupt or not compatible with the iPhone that is being restored...

    I replaced a faulty iPhone 4S with a new handset today, another iPhone 4S.  I was certain to backup my previous iPhone 4S to iTunes on my PC before returning the faulty unit.  The new phone was 'set up' at the Apple Store and updated to the current iOS, 7.0.4, as was the faulty unit prior to replacement.  Upon connecting the new unit to iTunes to restore to the most recent restore point from earlier in the day, the following message was shown:
    "iTunes could not restore iPhone because the backup was corrupt or not compatible with the iPhone that is being restored."
    I've browsed other forums and have contacted the Apple Store Genius Bar, and will hear from the Lead Genius tomorrow.  In the meantime, I am hoping someone may have information for me on what I may need to do in order to restore my phone as I'd anticipated doing by now.  My photos, email and text messages are what is affected and have not repopulated.  My music is accessable via iCloud without a problem and my contacts were kept via SIM.  I regularly copy my Camera Roll from my iPhone to my computer, and most of my photos are still viewable via Apple TV/My Photo Stream however only through the photos last saved.  The 348 recent photos that were on my faulty unit, and viewable in My Photo Stream were presumedly safe, but have disappeared.
    I have yet to shut down or restart my computer, nor have I exited out of iTunes, for the simple reason that I'd anticipated returning home with the new handset and plug it into my computer to restore right away.  I did, but that's as far as I've gotten. 
    Any help would be appreciated.  Thank you!

    Had the exact same problem whilst upgrading my iphone 4 to ios5. Lost all my data.
    Backed up ios 4.3 (8F190) iphone4. Upgraded to ios 5.1 (9B176), and then tried to restore.
    No joy, repeated the restore attempts countless times - lost all my data
    Tried again with a simulated test.
    Created a new itunes account on a new PC (64-bit windows 7), latest itunes(10.6.1.7- 64 bit).
    As my data is toast, I'm using the ios 5.1 phone to try to see if it was me or an apple bug, or something elsewhich caused this to happen.
    After quite a few more hours at it, it looks like a bug in iTunes / ios. I would be very happy to be wrong, though.
    Tried repeatedly restoring an ios 4.3 backup to 5.1 - no joy.
    Happy to try again - it does restore partially (got the call register transferred, but no SMS'es or anything else).
    Any ideas?

    Restore it as a new device first, then try again. If it still won't work, you're hosed, unless you can get hold of the old device and try backing it up again.

  • ITunes randomly stops playing purchases that have previously viewed on the same hardware. It has an error message about HD. How can this issue be resolved?  What information is available besides the "learn more" option that does not deal with the problem?

    Many people have the same problem. However, there is little or nothing readily available to users. This problem has existed for two or more years. Does anyone have anything to offer about this disturbing problem?

    Thanks for the suggestion kcell. I've tried both versions
    9.0.115 and 9.0.124 and both fail with the policy permission error.
    I also tried with and without your crossdomain.xml file but
    with the same result. It looks like this file is intended for URL
    policy, instead of socket policy. Recently Adobe separated the two.
    When I run with the files installed on my dev PC, it does
    work, which makes sense because the flash player isn't loaded from
    an unknown domain.
    I did get one step closer. If a crossdomain.xml in the server
    root exists and the socketpolicy file is loaded from the app folder
    then the first two warnings disappear. The logs now show:
    OK: Root-level SWF loaded:
    https://192.168.2.5/trunk/myapp.swf
    OK: Policy file accepted: https://192.168.2.5/crossdomain.xml
    OK: Policy file accepted:
    https://192.168.2.5/trunk/socketpolicy.xml
    Warning: Timeout on xmlsocket://192.168.2.5:843 (at 3
    seconds) while waiting for socket policy file. This should not
    cause any problems, but see
    http://www.adobe.com/go/strict_policy_files
    for an explanation.
    Warning: [strict] Ignoring policy file with incorrect syntax:
    xmlsocket://192.168.2.5:993
    Error: Request for resource at xmlsocket://192.168.2.5:993 by
    requestor from https://192.168.2.5/trunk/myapp.swf is denied due to
    lack of policy file permissions.
    Which basically says, everything is okay, but you stay out
    anyway.
    PS: I found the XML schema files here:
    http://www.adobe.com/devnet/flashplayer/articles/fplayer9_security_02.html
    and the socket policy schema:
    http://www.adobe.com/xml/schemas/PolicyFileSocket.xsd.
    UPDATE: When serving up the policy file on port 843 using the
    example perl script then the socket connection seems to be accepted
    and the connect succeeds. After that flex hangs trying to logon to
    the IMAP server.

  • Clean-up all data that did not match with the selection.

    Hi Everyone,
    In my requirement I need to  Clean-up all data that did not match with the selection from my internal table lt_cdpos.....in this case wat can i use like.'Refresh' or ' Clear' or 'DELETE ADJACENT DUPLICATES FROM lt_cdpos'.
    Pls suggest me...

    Hi Meenakshi
    Try  delete lt_cdpos where kunnr  NE KUNNR (from selection screen) .
    Before Checking <condition> make sure both comparing field type match with each other.
    You can use FUNCTION 'CONVERSION_EXIT_ALPHA_INPUT' for append leading zeros in compare condition before comparing kunnr from selection screen

    An iPod can pn;y sync wiht one iTunes kibrary and the new computer is a new iTunes library:
    - Transfer iTunes purchases to the computer by:
    iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod to a computer
    - Transfer other music by using a third-party probgram like one of those dicussed here:
    Copy music from Ipod to new computer...: Apple Support Communities
    - Connect the iPod to the computer and make a backup by right clicking on the iPod under Devices in iTunes and select Back Up
    - Restore the iPod from that backup
