Missing audio in some applications and very low audio in others

Hi,
I am using Gnome 3 with Arch Linux and I started to notice that there is no sound with certain applications... but for the majority of the system the sound still works. For example, normally, when I click on the volume icon and move the slider up and down it usually has a "pop" sound with varying degrees of loudness based on where it is on the slider... that is completely silent now. When I am using other applications (such as cmus, pianobar, ..etc) the volume is really low even when I put the volume for that application up to 100%.
Additionally, I was trying to pinpoint exactly what could be causing this problem and I remember that it happened when I was using pidgin and I went to the volume settings and moved the sliders all the way up and back down to the middle again.. after that it hasn't been the same.

Nouveau has a bug currently. Other drivers have been fixed, nouveau not yet. The cause is the way cairo-1.12 does things, it required patches in X and all open drivers. Keep an eye on this: https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/29495
Also, unrelated to that, you don't have hardware opengl acceleration. You're probably missing nouveau-dri.

"Memory full. Please close some applications and t...

I get this "Memory full. Please close some applications and try again" error message when manually entering the "Help" menu on my E51 and browse the help entries.
If I choose the Help option from within an application, it opens without problem.
I have about 35 MB left on c: and 5.5 GB/8 GB on the e: so what could be the problem?
I also get this error in the Application manager sometimes. Do I have too many apps installed?

I get this error message sometimes on my e65 when browsing. Just happened now and there is about 45MB of RAM free and with running applications taking just over 1MB.
What gives ? Getting the battery out is not exactly a solution to see the rest of the web page if you see what I mean :-)

Memeory full. Close some application and try again

Hi. i am using nokia x6 00. When ever i try to open any application i get error. Memory full. Close some applications and try again. I have given my phone many times to to nokia care to get the software re installed. But no use. I do not have any ohter application installed other than maps and watsapp. Could you please help.

Its basically a ram issue. I cant really see what on earth did think and gave just 128MB ram on models like C6-00, 5800, N97, C5 etc. You can never expect running heavy apps like maps or opera mobile on them. What kind of smart phones are these?

OK, then I'd suggest you do what it says and contact iTunes Support (posting here is only contacting your fellow users, in case you thought you'd get to iTunes Support here). Click the Support tab above, then look for the Contact Us section in the middle of the page.

Dirty mid-range frequency and very low vocal

I noticed this problem after I installed and began using Bose USB speakers on my Windows XP. In my iTunes, many of the songs have staticy mid-range frequency sound and vocals are very low and difficult to hear. These songs include songs that were ripped directly from marketed CDs or downloaded from iTunes Store. My equalizer is set to Flat and messing with the equalizer didn’t help as it made the songs even more staticy. I don’t have this problem on QuickTime, Windows Media Player, Realtime, nor on iPod. Only on iTunes. I want to use iTunes since I find it more convenient and easier to use than any other players that I know.
Can this be fixed? Please help.
iTunes 7.1.1.5 Windows XP

btw, I'm using my built-in laptop speakers (Altec Lansing); so it's not a Bose thing.

Missing text in one document and lose all images in other

Good evening. I've some problems with Page, today i open application and had been displayed "Some images are not available, as has been removed from the document" for all documents. And total lose one document.

Thanks for pointing that out. I probably would have scratched my head over that one sooner or later. Unfortunately, that is not the solution to this problem. Keep in mind that ~2/3 of the window is perfect.

Line in recorde mostly noise and very low audio (please help)

i think i may be giving my client a lot of money back...
about 20 minutes into a video gig i realized that the line in audio i was getting on my camera was not working properly so i pulled the plug and jsut picked up from the camra mic, but i am left with about... 18 minutes of very very poor audio. are there any brave and generouse soundtrack pros who can tell me waht setting to apply to make this "listenable"
you can download a 30 second snipit here: http://www.video-guy.com/forums/ami_out_ofluck.zip
i have soundtrack, but rarely use it, so like i said. if anyone would be kind enough to hold my hand and tell me what buttons to push i would be very much in your debt.
heck, i'll even do some free photoshop, or final cut work for you.
thanks.

First off, yes you're pretty much out of luck. I listened to your sample, and there's probably nothing you could do to make this sound good. With enough filtering, you could make it so the voice is marginally intelligible, but it's never going to sound like a good recording.
Second, while this web forum is good for discussion about Soundtrack Pro's features and how to use them, I've found that Usenet has much more meaningful discussions on audio editing techniques in general. A couple newsgroups I read religiously are rec.arts.movies.production.sound and rec.audio.pro.

On my iPhone 4s the video play back , the audio is very low . All other audio is good on phone even older video plays nice and loud . I have no idea what is wrong?

On my iPhone 4s taking video then playing back ,the audio is so low you can barely hear it . I played older videos and the audio works perfect . All other audio works perfect on the phone too. I have no idea what is going on ?

Hey!
I have tried holding down the home and power button countless of times. It doesnt respond at all. Plug my phone to a charger and hold down the power button and my phone switched on. But it said Activation Required and said connect to Itunes. As e screen remains on the connect to Itunes screen, I disconnect the charger from my phone and my phone went dead instantly. My battery is full btw. Tried connecting to Itunes through my Macbook Pro but iTunes doesnt detect my device and the apple logo flashes for about a few seconds on my phone and then disappear and then came back on again. My Iphone has been connected to my laptop for about 30 mins and the apple logo has been coming on and off for 30 minutes now and Itunes has not detect my device yet.
SIGHHH.

Audio problem only with some application and with games

Hi,
Some days my ipad2 presents this problem: audio is ok with itunes and when I look a video on youtube but it not work when I use some app (for example, Sky Go, app for cinema to look trailer) or with games.
What should I do?
Thanks

If you lose sounds for keyboard clicks, games or other apps, email notifications and other notifications, system sounds may have been muted.
System sounds can be muted and controlled two different ways. The screen lock rotation can be controlled in the same manner as well.
Settings>General>Use Side Switch to: Mute System sounds. If this option is selected, the switch on the side of the iPad above the volume rocker will mute system sounds.
If you choose Lock Screen Rotation, then the switch locks the screen. If the screen is locked, you will see a lock icon in the upper right corner next to the battery indicator gauge.
If you have the side switch set to lock screen rotation then the system sound control is in the task bar. Double tap the home button and in the task bar at the bottom, swipe all the way to the right. The speaker icon is all the way to the left. Tap on it and system sounds will return.
If you have the side switch set to mute system sounds, then the screen lock rotation can be accessed via the task bar in the same manner as described above.
This support article from Apple explains how the side switch works.

Emu 0404 USB - No sound thru headphones at the front - and very low volume

I can't get sound thru the headphones at the front of my Emu 0404 USB to monitor playback and recording. At the back, however, I can connect my headphones and also obtain sound but at a low level.
In sound settings the volume option is greyed, so no help there. I am using the Emu Asio ....otherwise the card seems good quality.

Do you mean you can't control volume in your software or system master volume controller at all? This normally means that you have not selected the system audio play/recording devices correctly or you have set output mode to bit-matched.
Also,
- you have a switch for Direct monitoring on top of the 0404 box
- w/ Some software, you can't enable direct monitoring in siftware settings

Iphoto Duplicated some pics and showing low res version

Iphoto has Duplicates some of my pictures one in a high quality which is the normal version and one is a low quality. The problem is that my iphoto library is only showing the low res version and i have to get extended info for those pictures then search for them on my mac. Then when i go to import the high res version it tells me /Users/mjo2287/Pictures/iPhoto Library/Originals/2008/Aug 9, 2008_2/Image 1058.jpg
each photo has the same name please help thanks

mjo
Welcome to the Apple user to user assistance forums
can you tell us any more? It sounds like you imported an old iPhoto library into a new iPhoto library - you should never import an iPhoto library into another iPhoto library
If this is the case do you still have the old library available?
If you do then quit iPhoto and drag the iPhoto library form the pictures folder to the desktop and drag the old iPhoto library to the pictures folder and launch iPhoto - you will now have an intact library with no duplicates

I have an iPad 2 and external speakers work, but JACK for headset doesn't produce sound. If I wiggle, twist or adjust it, the earphones make a crackly and very low grade sound. Ideas?

No aud. or sound when using wired headphones. If I constantly play with input jack it will produce a low sound or a regular sound but it's not of any quality worth listening. I have owned this iPad for over three years. It was purchased new.
Happenings since 2013:
Broke screen due to fall on floor 9-2013
Screen replaced by techs on 10-2013
Upon getting back iPad after being repaired discovered no WiFi on 11-2013
Sent back to techs to repair issues with WiFi on 11-2013
Received unit back on 12-21-13. I only checked WiFi. Unit remained unused for a few weeks.
Used unit during Xmas season on average 12 hours a day but have not yet discovered or even tried a pair of headsets until after Xmas.
Does work on screen and internal wifi antenna effect output sound on headphones?
Can this be easily repaired, possibly without taking off the cover? Does it have an update conflict? Is is a Settings issue?
Please help with any ideas or suggestions.

Hello,
Try wiping the iPad and then starting again. (Don't forget to back up first!)
I had that problem it was software.

Why the iPad internal speakers not working with some applications and key sound?

Rman create some files and very big size

Dear all,
I was implement rman back up on windows 2003 R2 with oracle9i.When i ran script
for backup as below :
RUN {
allocate channel ch1 type disk;
CHANGE ARCHIVELOG ALL CROSSCHECK;
CROSSCHECK ARCHIVELOG ALL;
DELETE NOPROMPT EXPIRED ARCHIVELOG ALL;
BACKUP DATABASE PLUS ARCHIVELOG;
CROSSCHECK BACKUP;
DELETE NOPROMPT EXPIRED BACKUP;
DELETE NOPROMPT OBSOLETE;
RELEASE CHANNEL ch1;
EXIT;
During executed these script i found rman create some files the name is "CQISBDNR_1_1" and the size around 17 gb. @ "D:\oracle\ora92\database"
and my config as below :
RMAN> show all;
RMAN configuration parameters are:
CONFIGURE RETENTION POLICY TO RECOVERY WINDOW OF 2 DAYS;
CONFIGURE BACKUP OPTIMIZATION OFF; # default
CONFIGURE DEFAULT DEVICE TYPE TO DISK; # default
CONFIGURE CONTROLFILE AUTOBACKUP ON;
CONFIGURE CONTROLFILE AUTOBACKUP FORMAT FOR DEVICE TYPE DISK TO 'E:\Rmanbk\CF%F'
CONFIGURE DEVICE TYPE DISK PARALLELISM 1; # default

CONFIGURE CHANNEL DEVICE TYPE DISK FORMAT 'E:\Rmanbk\%d_DB_%u_%s_%p';
CONFIGURE MAXSETSIZE TO UNLIMITED; # default
CONFIGURE SNAPSHOT CONTROLFILE NAME TO 'E:\RMANBK\SNCFAPPR.ORA';
What happend ? and Pls advise !
Thanks for advance !
Chara

I don't see any thing wrong in having a 17Gb rman backup file. It is just your backup in a single piece. You have configured rman to use the maximum size possible:
BACKUP DATABASE PLUS ARCHIVELOG
and
CONFIGURE MAXSETSIZE TO UNLIMITED; # default
As long as you have enough space to grow and you can transfer your backup piece to a safe place in a timely manner, you may cope with this.

Can't open some applications and game

ican't open motion sensor games in my nokia c5-03 mobile and it has a free memory of 25mb and free ram memory of about 32mb.

Hello 49ergirl:
Welcome to Apple discussions.
Hopefully this will be easier to fix than the 49er problems!
Try running repair disk from your software install DVD.
