IPhone Vibrate doesn't sound right.

When my iPhone 4 vibrates, it has this weird rattling sound to it. I just got a new one from sending mine in, and my last one didn't sound like this.. Should I get in contact with Apple?

If you are not satisfied then of course you can, a refurb is meant to be as new and yours doesn't sound like it is.

My 17" Macbook Pro battery swelled up and kind of exploded. The apple genuis said it is still safe to use, that doesn't sound right.

I am just kind of worried that it doesn't even fit. Do I need to kind of pop the expanded portion of the battery to get it to fit back in? The case of the battery has come apart and so to fit it back in I would have to press it back together. The battery is low count and had great capacity when it happened. I don't want to have to buy another one when this one is fairly new.

I agree with you, that's not right.
This may seem to be a little problem - fix it before it becomes a big one.

Pretty new to this, 2 recordings, doesn't sound right.. need help!

we had a narrator come into our own booth and record a lot of narration for us. She came back today to do some additions and corrections.
Used the same equipment, same booth, same everything, but for some reason it just doesn't sound right, it sounds "muffled" a little.. at least to me. I don't normally "clean" audio so I'm kind of lost. I haev the frequency analysis open and see the graph, and between 16000 and up its much much lower on the original recordings than it is on the ones done today.
Is there ANY way to try to get these matched up closely? All i've really tried is the EQ but that doesn't seem to get me very far.. what other things could I try... I'm really not an expert at this by any means!

This sort of problem has plagued everybody recording narrations for years - it's virtually impossible to get an identical sound between narration sessions unless you are seriously lucky. All it takes is for the narrator to have a slight cold in the head and be wearing different clothes - and they sound different if a direct comparison is made. Even worse is if they had a slight cold or whatever the first time around and are fine the next - you'd need them to get that cold again! And no EQ or anything else can even begin to compensate for this - the human ear is incredibly sensitive to the sound of voices, and even really subtle changes are very noticeable.
Best thing to do is to re-record sections, and not just corrections - you can often get away with this if there are breaks between sections. Even then it may not be right.
The way it has always worked for me is that if alternatives may be required, we do them all at the same sitting - and record a load of 'silence' too - that comes in more useful than you might ever imagine. And if it's critical, then re-record the whole thing - the amount of editing and correcting time required may well exceed the re-recording time, so often its worth it even though it sounds mad on the face of it.

Sound on Itunes doesn't sound right

I'm not sure if my problem is with my computer or the itunes. The sound when i play my music on itunes is terrible. The equilizer doesn't help at all, i put it on manual and i couldn't hear anything, just an intense amount of bass. The vocals will be really low and and the other parts jacked way up or vise versa. I can't figure this out.

Hi notoriousnwa
Try using the Recovery Manager to Restore the Original Driver look for the IDT High-Definition Audio driver.
Also, do you have any sound issue when using Windows Media Player?

Prepaid Iphone 4 doesn't work right out of the packaging.

i just recently ordered the prepaid iphone 4. y'know, because why not? haha. I was using a straightalk phone before this and was getting tired of it(it ran off of T-Mobile servers I believe) so my mom told me about it and im just like sweet i'd gladly rather have an iphone than this. and it was cheaper than the straightalk phone. so I ordered it and my mother ordered one for herself as well. they came in together. and her's worked perfectly fine and is still running fine. mine however, is a different story. I plugged in the charger right away to charge the phone, and it came on, but it said the battery was fully charged. so I unplugged the charger and the screen just completely shut off. and this kept happening, so eventually I just decided to go through the set up with the charger in. got to the part where they tell you to connect to iTunes, and I had to unplug it and hook it into my laptop. turned off again. so I plugged it into my laptop and the apple logo kept popping up like it normally does, and it would just keep turning off and on again. and then I had to put the Iphone into recovery, to restore it. and it wont leave recovery. I downloaded the update for it and everything but it just shuts off when its done and then tells me I need to download it all over again -___- my luck just seems to be pretty bad lately, any ideas on what I should do? and what I can do?

Take it to a store for a replacement or call pre-paid customer service at (888) 294-6804

Logic doesn't (sound) right

Can anyone explain why my tracks sound like they're supposed to when I have them in soundtrack pro but in logic the tone of them is completely wrong? I don't know if there is some setting I'm missing but when I mix a handful of Identical tracks with identical levels on both programs it sounds way better on soundtrack pro (like my tracks used to sound through my digital mixer), what's wrong with logic?

I would call that a Ship horn.
Insert a Space Designer and use one of the bigger spaces. A very low brass note (French Horn perhaps? I'll have a look myself, later) doubled with probably a timpanihit or possibly a Taiko drum hit.
In the YT clip at around 54 seconds it sounds like there has also been some pitch bending and a formant filter deployed, making me think it could be Zebra™ (synth by U-He) or of course any other synth with formant filter(s).

I have similar problem, but mine doesn't sound like a loose screw, more like the battery or vibration component is loose. When I shake the phone left to right abit I can feel that it's around the top area. Very annoying, besides that it works fine. Gonna

jsavage9621,
It pains me to hear about your experience with the Home Phone Connect. This device usually works seamlessly and is a great alternative to a landline phone. It sounds like we've done our fair share of work on your account here. I'm going to go ahead and send you a Private Message so that we can access your account and review any open tickets for you. I look forward to speaking with you.

There are two places where vibrations can be set.
One is the Settings > Sounds
The other area is Settings > Notifications
If you have an app set to Alert, it may have a vibration set for it.

My Iphone 3G doesn't go on vibrate when lower the volume, the volume stops short at the first bar, why?

Can someone please help me figure out how or why my iphone 3G doesn't go on vibrate or silent? It stops lowering the volume at the first litle bar in the volume.
also, I had not changed that I can remember some of the settings, but all of a sudden the "do not disturb" setting is in my computer and my iphone and I am puzzled. The "get incoming calls only form favorites was checked out and don't remember doing that wither" I keep checking my settings because I am somewhat scared of these activiies and I could not get my phone to go on vibrate, and under "do not disturb" I got the SILENCE option checked as: "Only while Iphone is locked" The note says that incoming calls and notifications will be silenced while iphone is locked. This is just so confusing. Why do I need my phonce calls silenced while my phone is locked? I don't. Anyway, please help me discern all of this if you can. Thanks.

First you don't have an iPhone 3G because Do not disturb is not a function for that phone.
Two, the vibration can be activate from Settings > Sounds > Vibrate on silent & Vibrate on Ring
Three, turn off everything in Settings > Do not Disturb
Keep me posted

My vibrate doesn't work on iPhone 5??

I bought my iPhone 5 the day of release. And since I've had it, the vibrate doesn't work. I've already tried restarting my settings to no avail. My phone says that it's on, but the only two settings I can use are sound or complete silence. Please help!

Have you tried going into settings -> sounds and seeing if they were disabled there?

IPhone 5 doesn't work with Mac OS 10.5.8 - do I need to ugrade to 10.6 and then upgrade to Mountain Lion or can I just upgrade to Mtn Lion right away?

iPhone 5 doesn't work with Mac OS 10.5.8 - do I need to ugrade to 10.6 and then upgrade to Mountain Lion or can I just upgrade to Mtn Lion right away?

At least to 10.6.8. You must do this to upgrade to Mountain Lion.
Upgrading to Snow Leopard
You can purchase Snow Leopard through the Apple Store: Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard - Apple Store (U.S.). The price is $19.99 plus tax. You will be sent physical media by mail after placing your order.
After you install Snow Leopard you will have to download and install the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1 to update Snow Leopard to 10.6.8 and give you access to the App Store. Access to the App Store enables you to download Mountain Lion if your computer meets the requirements.
     Snow Leopard General Requirements
       1. Mac computer with an Intel processor
       2. 1GB of memory
       3. 5GB of available disk space
       4. DVD drive for installation
       5. Some features require a compatible Internet service provider;
           fees may apply.
       6. Some features require Apple’s iCloud services; fees and
           terms apply.
Upgrading to Mountain Lion
To upgrade to Mountain Lion you must have Snow Leopard 10.6.8 or Lion installed. Purchase and download Mountain Lion from the App Store. Sign in using your Apple ID. Mountain Lion is $19.99 plus tax. The file is quite large, over 4 GBs, so allow some time to download. It would be preferable to use Ethernet because it is nearly four times faster than wireless.
     OS X Mountain Lion - System Requirements
       Macs that can be upgraded to OS X Mountain Lion
         1. iMac (Mid 2007 or newer) - Model Identifier 7,1 or later
         2. MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer) - Model Identifier 5,1 or later
         3. MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
         4. MacBook Air (Late 2008 or newer) - Model Identifier 2,1 or later
         5. Mac mini (Early 2009 or newer) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
         6. Mac Pro (Early 2008 or newer) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
         7. Xserve (Early 2009) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
To find the model identifier open System Profiler in the Utilities folder. It's displayed in the panel on the right.
     Are my applications compatible?
         See App Compatibility Table - RoaringApps.

Bought a new iPhone 6 and synced from iTunes but vibration doesn't work.

Bought a new iPhone 6 and synced from iTunes but vibration doesn't work. I did the reset option using side and home buttons but in vain. Please don't tell me to set up a new device coz its gonna be a hassle restoring apps, emails, contacs...etc.

Try to reset the phone by holding the sleep and home button for about 10sec, until the Apple logo comes back again. You will not lose any data by resetting, but it can cure some glitches.
If this does not help, setting it up as new device would be the next step:

Why My iPhone 4 doesn't have sound after I upgrade it to IOS 7.0.2

Why My iPhone 4 doesn't have sound after I upgrade it to IOS 7.0.2?

Try this - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.) No data/files will be erased.

I know the iphone 4s can turn off the vibrate for all sounds, but is there a way to keep the vibration on for just phone calls (with the ringtone also on) but off for everything else?
