  • When I connect my iPhone 3GS to my PC, a bizarre sound comes from the speakers of the PC.

    This is a strange problem. When I connect my iPhone 3GS to my PC, a bizarre sound comes from the speakers of the PC. The sound is constant and low but irritating.
    Please can anyone help?

    This didn't cross my mind. Becuase no other device is causing the problem. Still, I am going to contact them. Thanks though.

  • Ipod touch 1st gen 16gb hanging at the apple icon after a failed restore from the ipod touch

    I tried to restore my ipod through the ipod not itunes and it didn't finish,now the ipod is frozen on the apple icon and the little thing that goes around(?),my PC and itunes doesn't recognise the ipod and it switches off and on again after a few hours. I have tried press and holding the sleep and home buttons but that didn't work.

    Try placing the iPod in recovery mode and then try to restore the iPod via iTunes.  For recovery mode see:

  • Satellite A200 - crackling sound comes from the HDD

    Hi
    I have Satellite A200. When I start my notebook the crackling sound comes from the hard disc.
    Does anyone know something about this?
    Thanks
    Vikas

    In my opinion its nothing wrong with your HDD.
    My HDD clicks everytime while accessing any data on the notebook and everything run ok since 3 years.
    But this doesnt mean that there is no hardware problem with your HDD. Generally its not easy to say when an HDD wound starts to malfunction. My first HDD died after 6 years of usage. But the other HDD died after 1.5 years. This damage was covered by warranty.
    Finally I would recommend backup your data always on an external HDD to prevent the data from damage.
    Bye

  • Music files in my PC's iTunes directory have been moved around, now iTunes' index is not recognizing them and returns error messages. The files have previously been sync'd to my iPod, but when I tried to sync back from the iPod, iTunes on the PC error'd.

    I want iTunes to reconstruct its index of my music.
    We accidentally moved files around in my <<C:\Documents and Settings\Jordan\My Documents\My Music\iTunes>> directory. We tried to move them back, but anyway, the iTunes program now no longer can find/play the titles that the opened iTunes page/Library displays.
    I had previously copied/syncd all my iTunes music to my iPod. I tried syncing back to the PC from the iPod.  No improovement.
    At the moment, my dad is on my computer, logged in under his name (with administrative permissions). It seems that looking at my iTunes music under his login is still working OK.
    I do not have my music backed up to the "cloud".
    What are my options?

    The "missing file" error happens if the file is no longer where iTunes expects to find it. Possible causes are that you or some third party tool has moved, renamed or deleted the file, or that the drive it lives on has had a change of drive letter. It is also possible that iTunes has changed from expecting the files to be in the pre-iTunes 9 layout to post-iTunes 9 layout,or vice-versa, and so is looking in slightly the wrong place.
    Select a track with an exclamation mark, use Ctrl-I to get info, then cancel when asked to try to locate the track. Look on the summary tab for the location that iTunes thinks the file should be. Now take a look around your hard drive(s). Hopefully you can locate the track in question. If a section of your library has simply been moved, or a drive letter has changed, it should be possible to reverse the actions.
    If another application like Windows Media Player has moved/renamed the files then the chances are that subtle differences in naming strategies will make it hard to restore the media to the precise path that iTunes is expecting. In such cases, as long as the missing files can be found somewhere, you should be able to use my FindTracks script to reconnect them to iTunes. See this post for an explanation of how it works.
    If you have to resort to trying to pull back the library from your iPod see Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device.

  • Make the app sounds come from the front speaker?

    Hello,
    is there any way to make the sounds from the apps come from the front speaker? When I hold the phone sideways my hands block the lateral speakers, making it quite hard to hear, so if there was a way to change the speaker the apps use, that would be great!
    I'm aware I can just change the way I hold the phone, but it's kinda uncomfortable otherwise...
    Thanks in advance! =D

    If by front speaker you mean the earpiece, it doesn't produce enough volume to be clearly audible unless you hold it to your ear.

  • Just upgraded my 2014 iMac to yosemite. Now my Bose sound link won't work. The bluetooth is connected and it beeps as normal, just no sound comes from the speaker. This is very frustrating (along with the now flat rather than 3D icons on the desktop)

    I have just upgraded my 2014 iMac to YOSEMITE. Now my Bose Soundlink bluetooth speaker connects, beeps as normal, but produces no sound from the Bose speaker whatsoever. HELP PLEASE

    I have now recently downloaded 10.0.2 which is confusing in itself, as, as far as I can ascertain that is actually version 11, but I'm not even sure about that.
    Version 10.0.2 is the newest version and the successor to GarageBand '11 (version 6.0.5).
    The '11 is referring to the iLife '11 suit of multimedia application - the older GarageBand was a part of this bundle.
    Have a look at Edgar's graphical enhanced manuals, the explain very detailed how things work and why. You can buy them as iBooks from the iBook store or directly from the page:

  • 3rd Generation iPod shows "plug" icon and arrow after restore

    ...and nothing else.
    Attempts to turn it on result in the apple logo appearing and then the plug, then it dies.
    Tried plugging it into the computer. Tried plugging it into the wall. Nothing.
    Won't go into disk mode.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks in advance...

    Update:
    I took it to the Apple Store and the guy tried to convince me the hard drive was probably dead, but after I begged him to take it to the back and try it with their cord, he came out with a resurrected iPod. He said he pressed the case together very hard (I had recently installed a new battery), and then plugged it into their power source, which finished the restore (I guess).
    Now it's working again. So don't give up on your 3rd gen when you see that sign. I think all it needs is a good strong power source, (not from the computer firewire port), to finish the job.

  • 4G 20GB ipod showing less space and I've already emtied the trash

    Hey all,
    I have an interesting thing going on.
    Basically I have a 20GB iPod
    In the finder if I bring up an info window for the ipod it shows that 18.5gb are taken up and there are 1.5gb or so free space.
    Here's where it gets interesting. Earlier, I offloaded some files from my ipod so I could free space on the ipod. About 4gb worth of files.
    I was in a studio class and we used my ipod for disk space and worked off of the drive because the network it the school was horribly bogging down. We were working on a podcast in iMovie. This all worked fine. when we were done, we deleted the files that we were working from that were on my iPod after backing them up elsewhere. Then I don't believe the trash was emptied at that time.
    I'm now at home on my laptop and emptied the trash and it shows. that I have 18.5gb taken up. I know this is impossible as the files from the podcast were deleted from my iPod and the trash was emptied. My trash bin shows that it is empty even if I open it. Not a thing there.
    Next, I've used an application called Disk Inventory X. A great app that allows you to index and get a visual representation on what's hogging the space on your drives so you can zone in on stuff you don't need when you're fighting for disk space.
    In this case, it showed everything itemized and in a visual like it always does but this time it shows files totaling less than 12gb. This includes all of my iTunes library that is loaded on it. That comes up in a folder called "iPod_Control" and then in folders "Music" "iTunes" "Device" and a file "iPodPrefs". So yes it is clear that the application Disk Inventory X is showing all of the files.
    Now.. the big question is what's going on with the rest of the 5gb or so that are unaccounted for? The space that was clearly there before. I've tried to put those files that were stored on my iPod before it was used for the podcast but it says there is not sufficient space.
    Anyone have any ideas?
    J

    Thanks very much Jeff.
    I figured that was the next plan of action. I hope that resolveds the problem. I just have to free up some hard drive space to backup some files and stuff first.
    Take Care.

  • My iPod classic isn't recognized by iTunes. I plugged it in to update last night, but all music and videos were deleted from the iPod. Now when I plug the iPod into the USB for iTunes, it deosn't show up on the left side of the monitor. Any ideas why this

    When I plug my iPod classic (only three months old) into iTunes, it doesn't show up as a device on iTunes. I plugged it in to update last nightm, but all my music was erased and now it isn't even recognized. The iPod itself shows it being connected, but nothing on iTunes. Any ideas would be appreciated. eta2359

  • Ping and sproing sounds come from my MBP and my MP

    lately i seem to be getting a periodic sproing and a ping (i think it is the glass sound).
    the sproing seems to come from both my macbookpro and my macpro and the ping comes from my macpro. is there a way to track these down beyond going through each individual piece of software? i'm using postbox and deja vu and i am assuming postbox is one of the culprits even though i see no action on the taskbar.
    thanks for any help.

    I should check the preferences for each of those applications and see if there's a checkbox for using system sounds.
    Also check System Preferences>Sound>sound Effects and see if the option for playing user interface sounds has become enabled. Also check what alert sound is selected; could be one of them is telling you that an action can't be done.

  • My 5th generation iPod touch is not loading music copied from cd's.  Restore only temporarily works and backup erased them from the iPod (with tech support watching).

    I have had my iPod touch for only 3 weeks and it keeps removing the audio files from cd's that I have ripped to my iTunes library whenever I sync it to my computer.  I don't have an issue with purchased material through iTunes just music files from my cd's.
    I am frustrated and here is why:
    First issue I had was the day it was purchased.  That was fixed with help from tech support. I had to restore it to the factory settings and it downloaded all the music just fine.  However...
    A week later I purchased some songs on iTunes and proceeded to sync my iPod to get the new songs on it.  Well, a great purge began of the cd files for the first time.  I had to again restore the iPod to factory settings, go through the whole process of setting up again, and it downloaded all my music. Another week goes by.....
    I go to listen to my iPod yesterday at the gym and all the cd files are gone again.  I haven't synced it in a week and I don't have it set to sync over the WiFi.  But, amazingly and miraculously, the 3 songs I purchased appeared on the iPod without syncing at all. Strange, so I go online to chat with support and:
    He says to restore the settings.  I told him I was going to have to do it for a 3rd time in 3 weeks for the same issue? So we try doing a backup.
    The backup didn't work and he got to watch on my screen the audio files listed as being on my iPod (all songs show but only purchase play mind you) go from the total to just the total of the one's purchased.  I get an "oh my."
    I am then told to uninstall iTunes and all related Apple software and that should fix it.  If not I should contact them again.
    Well, that didn't work so after work it's again having them attempt to help me "fix" my issue.  This has to be a software issue with iTunes. 
    This is a ridiculous issue and shouldn't be so hard to fix.
    Who can tell me how to fix this properly so I don't have to reset my iPod every few days or week if I buy something?
