IPad Loudspeaker hiss when using an app with sound. Is this normal?

Is it normal when an app that uses sound is launched (even the keyboard causes it) a very faint hiss sound is emitted from the iPad speaker? It is not constant either, only occurs when it's about to make a sound and for 5-6 seconds afterwards.
It is not loud, only fairly faint and can only be heard when the room is silent or you place your ear near the speaker.
Is this normal?

Hi,
Yes it's only minor and I have tried resetting which has no effect.
For example, when I open up mail or safari and then the keyboard pop's up it has a faint hiss from the speaker which then disappears after 5 seconds until I press a key of which then triggers it to reappear. It sounds like the audio amplifier running the internal speaker has some hiss and to save battery life it turns the speaker off when it isn't needed (hence why it disappears after 4-5 seconds).
It is only noticeable in a very quiet room and I guess it doesn't help that I have fantastic hearing.
I guess it's no big problem and it doesn't happen when I use headphones but it's just something I'd like to check in case it's the sign of a fault.
Thank you for your response red555, much appreciated.

  • Multiple mailboxes when using mail.app with google in IMAP.

    Hello,
    I have just started using mail.app with IMAP and my google mail account appears to be in two place. The mail.app has the following interface in the left pane.
    MAILBOXES, REMINDERS, RSS and GMAIL all in grey. Below the MAILBOXES i have got the following folders, inbox, sent and trash and below the GMAIL, i have got a replication of the structure in my google account.
    which set of folders should i be using?
    when i deleet the mail in the MAILBOXES it does not seem to delete it in All Mail folder under GMAIL.
    IS the synchronisation between the mails in the mail.app and the google server on a periodic basis. can i force the synchronisation?

    Mail works fine with Exchange 2003. This is how our accounts are configured:
    Incoming Mail Server:your exchange server.domain.com.au
    eg. server2.bunnings.com.au
    Username: domain\User alias\Full username
    eg. bunnings\bobs\bob.smith
    SMTP: smtp.bunnings.com.au
    Web Access Server: webmail.bunnings.com.au
    You can then setup the LDAP options under the composing tab to get the email list from your Exchange server.
    And no i do not work for Bunnings!
    Good Luck!

  • When using Skype my IPad sounds like ocean. This is not a problem when I am on FaceTime or using other apps with sound.  Recently updated to newest IOS 7. First there was no sound for Kype and found that had to turn microphone sound on.

    When using Skype my IPad 2 now sounds like the ocean and I can barely here my contact.  This happened recently after IOS7 update. I did turn the microphone on for Skype as it was required after update.  Now my sound is terrible but only a problem when using Skype video call.  It is okay for FaceTime.

    Thank you!  Resetting resolved the issue with terrible sound when trying to use skype.  Sounds much better! 
    I am not sure what all changed when reset was applied to settings --- assume it defaults back to basic settings.  I have no idea what I had customized, so will slowly figure out.  I have noticed several things.  So far I had to add back my wallpaper and reenter password to get back on my wi-fi. 
    At least SKYPE is now audible.

  • HT201335 when using apple tv with my ipad, the mirroring function does not work, screen goes black, what is the issue?

    when using apple tv with my ipad, the mirroring function does not work, screen goes black, what is the issue?  My son's Ipad(same as kind as mine) works ok with the apple tv but mine does not.  Any suggestions?

    Hello Nina Izurin,
    While written for the iPhone, the troubleshooting below can help resolve issues with your iPad's camera, as well.
    Camera isn't functioning or has undesired image quality
    If the screen shows a closed lens or black image, force quit the Camera app.
    If you do not see the Camera app on the Home screen, try searching for it in Spotlight. If the camera does not show up in the search, check to make sure that Restrictions are not turned on by tappingSettings > General > Restrictions.
    Ensure the camera lens is clean and free from any obstructions. Use a microfiber polishing cloth to clean the lens.
    Cases can interfere with the camera and the flash. Try gently cleaning the lens with a clean dry cloth or removing the case if you see image or color-quality issues with photos.
    Try turning iPhone off and then back on.
    Tap to focus the camera on the subject. The image may pulse or briefly go in and out of focus as it adjusts.
    Try to remain steady while focusing:
    Still images: Remain steady while taking the picture. If you move too far in any direction, the camera automatically refocuses to the center.
    Note: If you take a picture with iPhone turned sideways, it is automatically saved in landscape orientation.
    Video: Adjust focus before you begin recording. You can also tap to readjust focus while recording. Exiting the Camera application while recording will stop recording and will save the video to the Camera Roll.
    Note: Video-recording features are not available on original iPhone or iPhone 3G.
    If your iPhone has a front and rear camera, try switching between them to verify if the issue persists on both.
    My issue is still not resolved. What do I do next?
    Contact Apple Support.

  • Full page prints from iPhone but not from iPad using photo app with AirPrint ?

    Full page prints from iPhone but not from iPad using photo app with AirPrint ? iPad only prints 4x6 on full size paper. It's an HP 8600.

    I also have this problem printing photos from an iPad to an Epson WF-2540 printer. It prints only 4x6 and without border (so print starts at extreme top left corner of paper). Borderless printing is not selected on printer. Printing a square photo just crops to 4x6 size.

  • When using the app store i get kicked back to the home screen?

    I will be browsing through the app store on my iPad and all of a sudden the screen goes black for second and then I'm back at the iPad home screen? It happens pretty frequently and only seems to happen when using the app store. I don't understand why I keep gettig kicked back to home screen and any solution would be appreciated.

    Im sorry I will try to be more clear.. and I appreciate all of ur input. Wi-fi works fine.. everything opens and functions fine on the I pad. The problem is I will click on app store or the I tunes store...it opens fine and I am able to look at and download apps  etc... but after being in the appstore or I tunes store for a couple of minutes I get kicked out to the I pads home screen. Its like pushing the home button but I didn't. It only seems to do this when im in the app store or I tunes store. I have been using the chrome browser and other downloaded apps such as ebay just fine with out this problem occurring. Not sure about safari as I dont use it and use chrome instead. Um I don't think the home button its self is faulty because it works fine and as stated before this only happens when I am in the appstore or I tunes . I've only had this I pad 1 64gb wi-fi for a few days .. I got it off of ebay it was stuck in restore mode getting error code 1611.  I was able to successfully Restore it with I tunes and it running ios 5.1. Seams to work great besides the problem being mentioned.

    Hi,
    Try a clean installation of the flash plugin/activeX as follows.
    First, download the Flash uninstall utility on the link below and save it to your Downloads folder.
    Flash Player Uninstaller.
    When the download has completed, close all browser windows, open your Download folder and run the uninstaller.  After this has completed, restart the notebook.
    When windows has reloaded, download and install the latest version of Adobe Flash.  Note: You may want to deselect the option to include McAfee Security Scan Plus before downloading.
    When the installation has completed, restart the notebook again nefore checking if you now have audio on the internet.

    So a guy goes into his doctors office and tells his doctor "Ya gotta

    Why don't you convert all the old 16 bit code into 32 bit code and
    create one application where the various parts all know about each
    other? I don't think that there's any way to coordinate an old 16 bit
    LV and a new 32 bit LV application so that they don't step on each
    other driverwise like they appear to be doing. I don't think that the
    two LabVIEW's even know that the other exists!
    Alternatively, get a second computer to run the 16 bit code on and
    make the two apps communicate with
    each other using TCP/IP or serial.

  • MacBook Pro freezes when using any app other than the web browser.

    My MacBook freezes when using any app other than the web browser. I can open up Google Chrome and use it all day with no problem, but if I minimize it and try to browse through photos in my picture folder or do anything that involves the Finder, the computer just freezes up and I get the rainbow wheel. If I put in a CD to play it, the computer freezes with the rainbow wheel. Any suggestions? I would like to use the mac for more things than the internet.

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, or by corruption of certain system caches. 
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
    Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and  Wi-Fi on certain iMacs. The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
    The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin. Test while in safe mode. Same problem? After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

  • My ipad isnt charging when em connecting it with my laptop any one knows why ?

    My ipad isnt charging when em connecting it with my laptop any one knows why ?

    The iPad pulls 10 Watts of power in order to charge the battery.  The USB port on a laptop only puts out 2.5 watts (I may be off on this slightly but I know it is way less then 10) So yes you do need to use the 10 watt wall charger that comes with the iPad to charge it.  You can use the 5 watt charger from an iPhone but the iPad will not get to 100% charge and it will really overheat the iPhone wall charger.  Only do this in an emergency and keep a close eye on the charger as it will get REALLY REALLY HOT. I only do this when I don't have my iPad wall charger with me and only for about 15 minutes at a time.  Then I let the charger cool down for about 15 minutes before I plug it back in.
    There is talk that future laptops will have usb ports that can push 100 watts but that is a way down the road I am sure.
