MY SPEAKER ARE MAKING A WEIRD NOISE

YESTERDAY MY MICROPHONE WOULDNT WORK & NOW I WOKE UP & MY SPEAKERS ARE MAKING A LOUD SHREIKING NOISE....EVERYTHING WAS FINE JUST A FEW DAYS AGO...CAN YOU PLEASE HELP ME FIGURE OUT THE PROBLEM.

I am having the same problem and it began about the same time. Wonder if a Windows Update caused a problem ??? I am trying everything I can think of to correct the problem, but with no luck. First thought it was just a problem with Skype. But Skype shows that my mic, video camera and speakers are working fine. However, I can't hear the person I'm Skyping with but they can hear me. I've tried several other things only to always come back to the squealing nose which basically sounds like feedback (i.e. - when a microphone gets too close to a speaker). Have considered doing the "Recovery" option, but hopefully someone will give us an answer! : /
Thanks for posting this!

My speakers are making a stuttering noise and the mouse is flickering random software glitches

Hi
as soon as I boot my speakers are making a stuttering noise unless I turn them down to nothing. this noise will continue while I work if I turn my speakers up.
But if I watch or listen to anything the noise is gone.
The mouse flickers and links on the desktop open without me wanting them to.
When I go under the Apple Icon TRHS the menu flickers and behaves strangely.
What could be happening ?
Thanks for any help you can give me.

Thanks for your replies, I have done a re-boot from disc utilities and repaired and verified disc and permissions.
This cleaned it up. But then I logged into LinkedIn using Safari ....the program froze when asked to link to one of my contacts. All of the bugs then returned. Only the combo of LinkedIn and Safari cause the problem . Other browsers work perfectly.
I would like to eliminate all bugs this combo causes - does anyone have a fix ?

Why is my macbook making a weird noise when trying to install a cd?

I had to send my macbook in a few months ago to get a new logic board, and now it will not install cds. About ten minutes into installation it starts making a weird noise and freezes and the only way to stop it is to force shut down my computer. Anyone else have this problem?

Make sure your Mac has good ventilation > Learn about the fans in your Mac
Better to not run too many applications simultaneously, especially any streaming video content.
For issues with fans, reset the SMC > Resetting the System Management Controller (SMC)

FInder making a weird noise after reinstall

I recently reinstalled Mountain Lion from scratch and ever since, I get a weird noise when moving files in the finder from folder to folder or installing a new application. It's definitely not a physical/mechanical type sound (i.e. grinding or whirring), it's kind of a low-pitched digital sounding "err". That's probably a terrible description, but I don't know how else to put it. It's kind of like the bad sound people get on a game show when they get the answer wrong.
I haven't really tried anything besides shutting down and starting up again, because I have no idea where to start. I also don't know what other info to put in here, so I'll do the basics and let me know if someone needs more. I have no idea if this is even something to worry about, but it's different, and different always worries me.

Hey there spock,
First off I'd recommend taking all personal information about your Mac from from there like serial number and things but anyway That is not a problem with your mac it is a default sound by mac You can go to sounds, sound affects to change i believe

I can hear the fan making a weird noise. What can i do?

My brand new macbook pro is making weird fan noises, like something stuck or loose. I had the same problem with my windows computer. I got my mac two weeks ago. I did not pay $1300 to have the same problems.

You make an appointment in advance. They look at it and tell you what's up. If they have the parts, they can fix it on the spot. (but they will take it in the back where they have a static-free workstation). Fan replacements (if that is indeed the problem) are straightforward, but the parts are special Apple parts.
There is no need to touch any data, but service always begs the question, "Do you have backups?" If not, what if your drive died tomorrow?
If you have an external drive, Time Machine is good because it does the backup (when the drive is available) automatically at low priority in the background. It does not interfere with your work.

MacPro Making VERY Weird Noises, Anyone Have any ideas?

For the past few days I have been processing and editing a recent job. This weekend the MacPro began making some very irritating and strange noises.
Here is what happens;
I am sitting there editing when all of a sudden I hear one of the hard drives rev up, then it sounds like a small hammer is dropped onto a concrete surface and bounces twice, then I hear beep, beep from inside the MacPro.
A few minutes latter; drive rev up, ping ping like a hammer bounce, then two beeps.
This goes on and on every few minutes......it's friggen killing me.
Anyone have an any ideas? Maybe a hard drive dying? Thing is, I never heard this before this weekend.

Hard drives in the newer Macs are very quiet. Are you sure you are hearing a drive spin up and not a fan kicking in? It sounds to me the most likely culprit is a misbehaving fan. Make sure you have the latest SMC firmware installed on your Pro. Here is Apple's download site with info on the update:

IPad 2 making a weird noise

My iPad 2 is making a vibrating/buzzing sound. It occurs whenever the iPad makes a noise. eg: locking and unlocking the device, getting a notification, typing (keyboard clicking) and watching videos, alarms etc. The sound is definately coming from the speaker.
It happens intermittently; one day it does it for 5mins and next day it doesnt do it at all. Could be a few weeks before it happens again. I have noticed it becoming more frequent in the last few weeks.
I have never dropped my iPad or spilt water or anyhring on it.
Thanks, any help is appreciated.
ps. if anyone knows how to post a video, please tell me because I have a video which clearly shows it.

IT's ladymindful again. FYI, I turned the volume to mute and there is still the beep sound.

My Retina Macbook Pro is making this weird noise

My recently purhcased 2.7 Retina Macbook Pro has made this noise a few times from awaking the computer from sleep. Does anyone know what it is?
http://www.sendspace.com/file/prlzhh

How do you turn them down or off? I don't even know how they turned on to begin with. They have never turned on before and I've had my Mac Pro for 3months. I just turn my Mac off it starts doing it again when I turn it back on

My Iphone 4 was making a weird noise, it glitched for a minute, then a blue screen appeared, it turned off and won't turn back on at all. Please help!

Please help me! I will be so thankful!

Try a reset, hold down the home/sleep button together until you see the apple logo and then release, then wait for the phone to boot back up.

IBook making weird noise - think it's the fan

Hi, I've had this iBook for just over two years now, and lately it's been making a weird noise. Every so often something inside - I think it's the fan - will start making this sort of high whining whirring sound, then quiet down after a few minutes. It's not particularly tied to anything I'm doing, and will sometimes happen when I'm not doing anything. Also, I am using the computer on a normal desk, not in any situation which could lead to overheating, and the computer doesn't feel any hotter than usual.
I think the problem is getting more frequent over the past few months. I originally had 10.2 and I installed 10.4 when it came out, but I think the noise had already happened once before then, so I can't directly blame that. The computer has been running a little slower since I installed, though, and the trackpad has stopped working a few times lately.
Anyone have any suggestions what could be causing this, and is it just a nuisance or is it the first sign of the computer breaking down? If it needs repairing, where do I start? I'm very ignorant about hardware, so please try to explain simply! I do have a friend who can help me if at-home repairs are all that's needed, though.

Esther,
Have you ever done an Archive and Install of your OS? If so, you may have a Previous System folder on your hard drive taking up a lot of space. This can safely be deleted.
Some folks delete files regularly, but forget to empty the trash. It isn't gone (and doesn't free up space) until you empty the trash.
You may want to download Monolingual, which will allow you to remove unnecessary languages and foreign fonts. Most people recommend keeping around 5 gigs free to allow for smooth operating in Tiger.
Try booting into Safe Mode. This will take awhile longer than a normal startup because it does a file check and repair of the hard disk.
You will see your normal desktop. Once completely started up, restart normally, and go to Applications/Utilities/Disk Utility and repair permissions on the hard drive, as Barry has instructed above. (After repairing my hard drive via Safe Mode, I always repair permissions, even if I have done so recently.)
Hope you are on your way to a happier, quieter hard drive.

X300 - fan/hdd making weird noise

FYI notebook is <= 6 months old.
Couple of days ago, I had my x300 on for few days without any downtime, did system upgrade (kernel changes included [debian lenny]) in the meantime. Then out of nowhere, this very loud weird breaks out, few years ago I heard pretty much the same noise, I didn't shut down my notebook, and result was ... my hdd died.
So I shut down my x300, let it "relax" for few hours. Few hours later, noise is much softer and quiter, since I thought it could even be made to changes to kernel, I tried with few other distros, but nothing really changed it. Now I first thought it was my fan that was making this weird noise, but now I'm almost 100% positive it's my hdd. Since x300 would remain completely silent until I saw it booted my root partition and hdd started working, then I would hear the noise as well.
I keep shutting it down now, if it's not shut down it's on suspend or hibernate, I'm really scared to leave it up all night. I tried going through this forum, Google of course and etc ... but nothing really solved my problem. Right now noise is completely ... you can barely hear it, but let's say I have bat ears so I can hear it all the time.
It goes away, but then few minutes after computer has been on it comes back, since I gave it its time to "rest" it's been quite quiet, the reason I don't send it to Lenovo support is because of my recent incident: http://forums.lenovo.com/lnv/board/message?board.id=X_Series_Thinkpads&thread.id=6612
and I pretty much just got it from them, so if I really don't want to go through whole thing agian.
Any thoughts, ideas, please do let me know.

I recommend you try to remove the battery and boot it if the noise is still there or not.
SDD might not have any noise from my experiences.
You're so hard to vertiy where the noise comes from , because the material of x300 is so easily passing the sound everywhere.
Most common problems are came from the fan, the cpu (can not be solven), the battery(common issue)
BTW, the x300 is supposed to be loud....i own one, I have the same problem, just use tpfancontrol and kick the noise out
