  • Laptop sounds like a chainsaw

    My laptop makes like a wierd grinding noise. I took it in for repair  less than a week ago and the fan was replaced. However after getting it back it has returned to its usual grinding noise . It will make the same noise every couple of seconds. I have recorded a video of the sound and uploaded it here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HfkICMGyxH8, could it be a problem with the hardrive as I have read somewhere else, please help

    I agree, that isn't coming from the Hard Drive, I've never heard a hard drive make a sound like that.  When you got it back from repair did it make that sound right away or did it take a while?  Is it making the exact same sound that it was making before you brought it in?  Where was it that you got it repaird at?  I ask because it sounds like it is coming from the fan, but if it was just replaced, then there is something that the fan is hitting or something, but I doubt that.  Almost sounds as if a bearing in the fan is gone and that is what all that noise is about.  Just making sure that they actually replaced it!

  • Laptop sounds like it is going to explode! Windows 10 sound issue HP Pavilion G7

    Okay, so on the 29th I updated 2 laptops, one of them an HP G7, to Windows 10 from windows 7. Had very minor issues, including the microphone and webcam not working on it. Haven't found a solution to that one yet, but 2 days ago, a new issue appeared after I rebooted (and I assume a windows update was done). There is a constant sound coming from my speakers that sounds like the computer is about to explode! It is horribly loud and doesn't respond to any sound controls including mute. So I rebooted into safe mode and disabled the speakers in device manager. Rebooted to normal and no noise - no sound at all now of course, but no issue and everything is working fine. Today, Windows did another update so I figured perhaps it had fixed the issue...nope! As soon as I enable the device, boom! Sounds like a super high/fast helocopter has moved into my laptop's case! Scared the heck out of one of my cats it is so loud! So I disabled the driver again, rebooted and noise is gone along with sound capabilities.  So right now no sound, no microphone or webcam working on my computer. Yes, I tried updating the drivers (says they are up to date). Troubleshooting tells me device is disabled (well, duh!).  I also tried uninstalling the audio drivers and reinstalling to no avail.  Devices I've disabled are the IDT high definition audio codec with driver version 6.10.6392.0.  I also disabled the Intel Display audio with driver version 6.14.0.3097 for good measure. I left that one disabled and only tried enabling the IDT though when I still had the big noise this am.  My computer is a Pavilion g7 2070ur I think it is??? (hard to read even with my glasses on ) Its on Windows 10 Home 64 bit and I have 6 GB ram.  Processor is intel core i3-2350m cpu @2.30 ghz  Anyone have ideas???

    I bet the mortgage you have a 40 gig HD. They were weaker than the winner of the weakest weed in the world competition.
    Remove Battery. Switch it on. Firewire it up to your buddy's mac and download everything you need. Get a new HD (80 gig was much better (and quicker)) and you'll be fine and dandy.
    You'll need a new battery too.
    $200 well spent I don't think. Apple should own up to the dreadful HD issues surrounding the 40 gig models - should live 5-6 years, mostly they live 2-3 (according to the repairer that fixed mine after only 18 months of minor use!)
    Music to Dell's Vista loving ears no doubt!

  • Sounds like CS5 will ship soon.

    I've heard various speculation that CS5 might not ship until October. But looking over at the Adobe store,
    I see (http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/store/html/index.cfm?event=displayStoreSelector&keyword=fonts) :
    Temporarily unavailable
    We're sorry, but the Adobe Stores are down for scheduled maintenance.
    Service is expected to be back up on Monday, April 12, 2010. Get free
    shipping that day only by entering the promo code FREESHIP (please copy
    the code for your reference). Offer expires Monday, April 12, 2010, at
    11:59pm (PDT).
    Make of that what you will. (I also heard a rumor in person on Friday that the whole business about the iPad and the Apple's refusal to permit Adobe's flash compiler to output to the iPad and iPhone was especially annoying to Adobe because they had CS5 packages on the shelves ready to ship, so it would be difficult for them to change anything expeditiously; this is in reference to NYTimes Bits Blog: A Change at Apple Causes Trouble for Adobe)
    Put together. I'd tend to think this means CS5 is shipping sooner rather than later.

  • Why does my Macbook sound like the cd drive is starting  every time i wake my computer up?

    When I wake up my macbook it sounds like its grinding a disc in the drive. There is no disc inserted. What could cause this?

    More precisely I can see that I have got email, as it says the number 4 next to the Hotmail account but it doesnt show any of the messages.

  • The Elements 12 Mac disk works fin - I also have a Dell, and the Windows disk will not run at all, sounds like it's grinding, and is almost impossible to remove from the hard drive.  I cannot find any place to tell me who to CALL to ask for a replacement!

    Hi Samcat,
    You can use a download instead of the disk as an alternative: Adobe - Download free trial version Adobe Photoshop Elements 12 | Adobe you can license with your serial
    Please test the disk in another windows machine to check if it's caused by the drive or the disk. If you tested with 2 drives please start a support case, i assume Adobe will only provide downloads at this point. They are the same as the trials. If you still need a disk you can burn the trial to a disk as a backup disk. Good luck!

  • My podcasts download from laptop iTunes but play back sounds like the chipmunks!

    I download podcasts to my laptop for use on iPhone, iPod and shuffle (different places, different situations). Only problem is that the playback on the iPhone is so speeded up, it sounds like the chipmunks! Any suggestions?

    This is correct and it's got to be the stupidest tiny icon anyone could sabotage a nice podcast with - but thanks for nothing (i.e. useless crud).  But at least iPhone folks help one another out.  Thanks,

  • Hi everybody, my Macbook air mid 2012 MD 231 suddenly shut down then i can not turn it on. I heard a sound like a fuse is blown or something like that. Did any system break or burnt? I did not charge at that moment. Plz help

    my Macbook air mid 2012 suddenly turn off after a strange sound (like the sound òf a fuse has blown or something like that) and I also feel a burnt smell too while i am watching a film on the internet and did not charge the laptop at this moment. The sound was from the left of it, and now just a dark screen , even I tried charging it (still has green light at the charge tool). I bought it on 13st April 2013, not often use.
    I love apple and i am so sad that a new product which i seldom use could be break so easily and outstanding. It's so late in my country now but i am too disappoint about the trouble so i am writing with hope of supporting from Apple and the community.
    Please help , thank bro

    You will have to take it to an Apple Store for repair.

  • My Ibook sounds like it working on something but it actually dont! ANNOYING

    Been looking for answer through all the forum couldnt finde the right answer. First of all sorry if my English is not correct Im originally from Norway.
    Just got my Ibook G4 month ago. And at the beggining I was amazed how silent it working! But few days ago it start to show some behavior. here is symptoms:
    It still works very quiet, BUT! when it totally quiet I can hear that even if I do nothing on laptop it still give that tiny sound like processor(?) or harddisk(?) trying to do something. Hard to explain, this sounds like when I open some program computer give this quiet scratching sound when processor starts working. Well thats sound comes and repeats non stop every 10 sec even If I dont do absolutely anything.
    I was trying to use disk utility and its appear that everything is allright.
    I was trying to monitor computer activity and here is what it shows:
    ACTIVE PROCESSE:
    pmTool ......... root
    Activity monitor
    window server
    config ... root
    kernel_task ... root
    Those processes working all the time when I do monitor activity
    And this processe appear from time to time
    SystemUIserver
    update.... root
    Does anyone have an idea what can cause this "working processes" in my Ibook which gives this tiny sound.
    It dosnt seems big problem for me, but it is annoying especially this part that I dont know what can cause that sound. Im totally in love with my Ibook and was really amazed how quiet it is and Im just trying to figure out whats wrong.
    By the way since I got it I also installed next programs:
    MSN messenger
    Yahoo messenger
    LimeWire
    Windows media player
    VLC player
    STUFFIT
    DIVX converter
    Can any of those programs cause that working sound? Maybe I just shoul reinstall opeariton system?
    Thanks in advance

    SUVORKIN,
    Verified is a good status
    I don't think reinstalling the system software will fix your problem. Usually hardware makes the noises and software raises the blood pressure. Are you a former Windows user? Lots of EX-Windows users feel like they need to reinstall their system software often, but it is not necessary with Mac OS X. The same thing with defragmenting the hard drive. It isn't needed with a Mac (unless one is making a huge movie and is constantly saving pieces of it - example) because of HFS+ (Hierarchy File System) and HFAC (Hot File Adaptive Clustering). You may want to look at You do not have to defragment your hard drive because of Hot File Adaptive Clustering. You may want to look at Knowledge Base Document #25668 on About disk optimization with Mac OS X.
    Developer Connection Document on HFS+ Volume Format says,
    "Most files on a disk are rarely, if ever, accessed. Most frequently accessed (hot) files are small. To improve performance of these small, frequently access files, they are moved near the volume's metadata, into the metadata zone. This reduces seek times for most accesses. As files are moved into the metadata zone, they are also defragmented (allocated in a single extent), which further improves performance. This process is known as adaptive hot file clustering.
    The relative importance of a frequently used (hot) file is called its temperature. Files with the hottest (largest) temperatures are the ones actually moved into the metadata zone. In Mac OS X version 10.3, a file's temperature is computed as the number of bytes read from the file during the recording period divided by the file's size in bytes. This is a measure of how often the file is read."

  • I have Iphone 4s, and the phone will activate itself again. How do I get changed Apple ID on my phone so that I get using the new username and password that is verified? I would like an answer as soon as possible ... Thank you very much.

    I have Iphone 4s, and the phone will activate itself again. This I have verified, but when I shall put this onto my phone, so the phone will not approve the newusername and password. How do I get changed Apple ID on my phone so that I get using the new username and password that is verified? Silly to buy a new phone just for this .... The phone is almost three years old. How long can weexpect this to last? I would like an answer as soon as possible ... Thank you very much.

    It sounds like your device might be in Activation Lock.  Is it asking your to enter in an Apple ID & password, but only showing you the first letter of the email address and then some dots? Example: j•••••@icloud.com?
    If so, do you recognize that email?  Do you have an Apple ID that fits the same format?  If so, then go to www.cloud.com, log in with that Apple ID & password, and see if under Find My iPhone it shows this device.  If so, turn off the device, then remove the device from the list.

  • How do i stop my music from sounding like it has interferance when i copy cd's to windows or itunes?

    hi, i'm having trouble with the sound quality on some cd's that i copy to windows 7 or itunes, it kinda comes out all crackly & sounds like there's interferance, the cd's themselves are playing on other appliances & sound ok.
    i've tuned-up my pc thinking that would rectify the problem but to no avail.
    thanks,
    pete.

    If it were truly a backup, then the media would play on the laptop as it would be on the laptop.
    Sounds like you actually do not have a backup, instead you chose to keep your media on an external drive.
    Regardless of where the media is stored, it's always a good idea to have a backup for instances like this.

    Dear Mr. Toad (my all-time favorite ride at Disneyland ;-) ..
    Thanks so much for your detailed reply.. my netbook is in the bedroom, turned off.. I (so far) only use it in the evening, in the bedroom.. I've saved your response, and will try your suggestions, and let you know if they solve the problem I described. I really appreciate you taking the time to post such a detailed reply..
    I can't answer your Thunderbird "configuration" questions, because I'm in the living room, using the crap Vista laptop, on which I plan to install Thunderbird, and then take Windoze Mail out in the street and drive over it a few times.. I'll get back to you one way or the other, and let you know if your instructions solved the problem, or not..
    I don't understand why Thunderbird "out of the box", so to speak, simply doesn't forward HTML emails with embedded graphics, (like Outlook Excess, and Winblows Mail do).. without having to go through those steps. I personally HATE HTML email, but over the years, it's become more and more prevelant.. so it's a problem I must fix..
    Thanks again..

  • How to turn the surround-sound-like effect off with headphones?

    When I plug in the headphones into my ipad I notice the sound in the headphones becomes kinda surround-like. For instance I clearly hear keyboard clicks "at a distance" in front of me when using headphones. This "effect" is nice for keyboard clicks but totally ruins any music listening experience because any song gets distorted and is perceived at some distance when played. This becomes extremely annoying when listening to mono content. The special sound processing applied to get this surrround-like sound effect adds artefacts into the sound, please let me know how to turn this off Apple, I couldn't find any option in the settings.
    Overall, I couldn't even imagine I'd get such an annoying and unprofessional effect applied by default without a possibility to turn it off. If I knew that in advance I'd never buy my ipad since currently it's not possible to listen to music with it
    Message was edited by: vvtrus

    vvtrus, did you ever consider that turning off the clicks or other sounds might have an effect? So, before telling people who want to help you that an answer makes no sense to you, you might first try it.
    Since hearing and listening to music is a very subjective matter which also depends on the quality of the headphones you use, it might be the case that you hear on your iPod something that you couldn't hear on your laptop and portable music player (both of non-apple design). Then you should blame those other devices to deliver you such poor sound. On the other hand, you might have a better hearing than other people which might give you the impression of surround-sound-like effects -- in which case we can't help you either.
    Anyway, there are no settings to turn on or off "surround sound effects".

  • Sound from speakers sound like it's coming from a tin can

    I just bought a Toshiba Satellite L505-S5971 and the sound from the speakers sound like it's coming from a tin can.  The volume never really reaches a very loud volume even at 100%.  I've checked all of the settings for the Realteck HD Audio control panel and I've check the device manager and drivers and all seems ok.  Does anyone have any suggestions on what could be wrong or is that the way it's supposed to sound?  If this is the way it sounds I am very disappointed.

    The Realtek HD Audio driver low volume level plagues a great many of us. One workaround is to try the following which tends to improve the volume levels:
    First, either download and install the latest Toshiba audio drivers for your laptop via the Toshiba Support web site, or download and install the latest Realtek HD Audio drivers from the Realtek website.
    Second, once the audio drivers have been updated, enable "Loudness Equalization" on either the Start -->  Hardware and Sound --> Realtek HD Audio Manager --> Sound Effects tab, then click OK to save the setting change. Or on the Start -->  Hardware and Sound --> Sound --> Speaker Properties (select Speakers then the Properties button) --> Enhancements tab, scroll down the list of sound effects to enable "Loudness Equalization" then select the OK button to save the setting changes.
    Once the Realtek drivers have been updated and the "Loudness Equalization" has been enabled the system sound audio level is much louder, however the DVD and Audio CD audio levels might continue to be low.

  • SB Audigy2 ZS PCI+Logitech Headset= Voice sounds like its under water

    I tried using my Logitech Headset this evening on my desktop to communicate with my buds over mumble while playing BF3 and no matter how many settings I messed around with in both Win7 x64 or the mumble software my voice was crackled and distorted. Now I know for a fact my headset is not the problem, since I use it daily on my laptop at work to talk to people over Skype & GoToMeeting and I'm crystal clear and I even plugged it back into my lappy afterwards and listened to myself speak, and it was fine. The problem must be with the Sound Card. Is this something to do with the settings or is this a sign my card/drivers are bad?

    Hi,
    Disconnect your headset and just plug in a microphone and do a microphone recording. Playback what you have recorded, do you sound like you are underwater? That will narrow down if it's the sound card that's causing the problem. Also try running other games to see if same problem is happening.
