Noise after head allignment

Afer I did a print allignment my printer immediately started making a knocking sound. The print comes out ok but the knocking sound is really bad. What can i do to correct this?

Hello,
Please remove the ink cartridges and re-install them back in.
If your printer has a removable printhead, then also reseat it.

Duet makes noise after switching between finder audio and Logic

Hi
My Duet makes noise after switching between "finder audio" and "Logic", In other words i would play a mp3 in the finder and when returning to Logic all my audio sounds like the "lo-fi" RTAS free plug digidesign gives away now.
This is happening on a White *iMac 24"*
Model Name: iMac
Model Identifier: iMac6,1
Processor Name: Intel Core 2 Duo
Processor Speed: 2.33 GHz
Number Of Processors: 1
Total Number Of Cores: 2
L2 Cache: 4 MB
Memory: 2 GB
Bus Speed: 667 MHz
Boot ROM Version: IM61.0093.B07
SMC Version (system): 1.10f3
MacOsx 10,5,7

Does this happen every single time? The same thing happens to me every once in a while. I just close Logic and Maestro and unplug the Duet. Then, in this order, plug in the Duet, wait for it to click, load Maestro, load Logic. Works every time.
Edit: It does only seem to happen when I switch from Logic and the audio output from the Duet to internal and then come back quickly. I don't think it's an issue with the Duet hardware itself.

Clicking noise after downloading the security update...

Hi,
I was wondering if anyone else's MacBook has a clicking noise after they did the system update for the security,sounds like it is coming from the top right hand corner.
If anyone knows what might be causing this problem, do let me know.
Thanks,
Sam

Could the noise be coming from the hard drive (lower right corner?)
And, is the 'click' the same sound that the HDD makes once, normally, just before the whole computer turns off during shut down or sleep?
My clicking HDD began right after downloading the last Security Update (the one released in May), but I concluded that was just a coincidence. Nevertheless, when I installed yesterday's security update I couldn't help but secretly hope it might stop the clicks. No such luck... I still doubt it has anything to do wuth it. Just thought I'd ask...

Clicking noise after every still photo and chapter introduction.

After we have burned the DVD of our movie, we could hear loud clicking noises after every still photo and every chapter intro. These we could not hear in iMovie. The sound from the video camera was pulled all the way down on the clips following the stills.

Hi HailGalvatron,
It's very possible that the new drive is DOA. It's not very common but it certainly happens. The drive shouldn't "click" or "grind" when the drive platter is spinning. If you're not able to detect the volume on the drive properly via Disk Utility (when booted to a CD/DVD), I'd say it'd be worth getting the drive exchanged.
I have a few Seagate Momentus drives in my stable of external drives and they've behaved pretty well over the years. I believe the issue that other users were reporting were with a specific 60GB model found in the first generation of MacBooks.

Print head allignment error

Printer is a 6500 E709N. I have followed all the steps on the troubleshooting webpage. I have installed a new printhead and new ink cartridges and I still get an error on print head allignment. Also Black does not print at all, mostly blue on testpages. What else is there besides throwing it away?

What printer model? If black is not printing correctly the alignment will fail. Depending on your printer model you may need to replace your black cartridge and/or run cleaning cycles to clear the printhead.

CISCO UNITY - NOISE AFTER THE BIP

Hi,
We have the following scenario:
PSTN - PRI - AVAYA PBX - SIP TRUNK - CUBE - SIP TRUNK - CUCM - UNITY 7.0
When we call to the voicemail, after the "bip", we can hear a "sssssssh" sound. Have you ever experienced something similar? Can be related with the codec? It is strange, because the prompts and the "bip" are perfect, it is just the noise after that.
BRs!

Satellite P200 makes some strange noises after closing the music

I've got a Satellite P200 and the flash cards don't react and when Ive played some music.
The computer makes some strange noises after closing the music?
Help me please!
grtz Wendy

Hello Wendy
Please don't understand me wrong but it is not easy to understand issue described in your posting.
I have the same notebook model and everything works well. I hear music daily on Windows media player (mp3s) or listening online radio using Winamp player.
At the same time I can use flash cards.
What to say about strange noises? Who knows what do you mean exactly and how should we understand this?
Please be so nice and explain us exactly what do you do and what kind of noises you can hear.

Noise after switch to Creation m

my X-Fi Elite PRO generate some noise after I switch to creation mode from any other modes. But this doesn't happen every time, if I switch it again, sometimes fix the problem.
But the problem never happen when I switch to entertainment or gaming mode. I think its something wrong with the driver, please fix it...
Note: I enabled the accurate playback and set 44KHz as the main frequency. And using lastest driverMessage Edited by Cemson on -6-200607:58 AM

I see you are posting several requests here for different problems and i wonder if you have got your PC set up correct in the first instance. Did you do a clean install or just install X-Fi drivers on top of your previous card drivers. Is your OS up to date. Are your motherboard drivers and bios up to date. Newer hardware does require newer drivers etc. Make sure everything on your PC is updated and that you remove old sound drivers before installing new ones. Note that after installing the X-Fi CD drivers you should then install the latest Webupdate drivers which are only a few days old.
Hope this hel

Hard drive makes plunking and clicking noises after Firmware Update

My Macbook hard drive worked fine for 9 months until I installed the EFI Firmware Update 1.1 a few months ago. The hard drive then started making plunking or clicking noises every 30 seconds or so, which is beyond annoying. Eventually, I became worried, backed up my data and took it to Apple to get the hard drive replaced. They replaced my 120gb Toshiba drive with a new 120gb Fujitsu drive and it does the same exact thing.
Apparently the plunk is the sound of the drive head parking on the disk. I am now pretty certain nothing is wrong with my hard drives but something was changed during a Firmware or Software Update that tells my hard drive to park the disk head every 30 seconds. Ive found a few other similar cases on the internet. The drive seems to function fine otherwise.
I know two other people with Macbooks and their hard drives don't make the same noise as mine despite having the same drives. Ive tried two hard drives now, Ive tried various power settings, disk utility doesn't find any issues and performance hasn't suffered. Its just an incredibly irritating sound every 30 seconds that is driving me crazy.
I don't want to learn to just deal with it because its annoying and distracting, and is possibly something created from an update.
Anybody have any ideas?
Thanks,
Ed

Hi, welcome to Discussions,
You may have seen some of the various threads about this on this forum. There were many last year (summer 2006) and I've noticed some recently:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=5747020&#5747020
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1226956&tstart=0
None of the threads last year provided any "fixes" as far as I remember, the way people are attempting hacks above.
I had the parking-like sound (never found out if it really was parking) on three consecutive Seagate 80Gb drives in a first generation MacBook Core Duo. It would start after about a day and a half after receiving it, presumably after Spotlight had finished indexing and the drive was then being left idle. The drives were perfect otherwise, and whisper quiet (which made the thunking sound easier to hear). Finally the Apple Store in Brent Cross, London determined that the sound was normal, saying these newfangled smaller SATA drives make such sounds which are normal to their operation. I decided to drop my concern, because the drive (#3!) was working fine.
Your experience is interesting because it seems to relate the offending drive action to the EFI Firmware Update. In my own case my MacBook was replaced last month because of a different issue and the new one (Core 2 Duo – yay!) has a Hitachi 120 Gb which is noisier in general, but no clunks to be noticed yet.
Good luck!

HP laserJet 5200dtn making buzzing/humming noise after printing

Hi,
We have about three of these units in our office and one of them has recently began to make a loud buzzing/humming noise during and after printing a document. THe noise last about 5-10 seconds after the print job completes. I can also make the printer buzz by removing the duplexer and puting it back in. The printer seems to load and then the buzz noise happens, again for about 5 seconds. I am aware of normal noise from these printers and this buzz is not normal.
This noise gets louder as the day goes on. Could this be a fan motor going bad? We need to do somthing to get it quieter.
Any help or suggestions?
Thanks

any suggestions?

Why do I have fan noise after OS 10.7.5 update?

I used to have moaning sounds coming from my Mac Pro (Quad Core, early 2008) when I was in motion graphics programs, or in NetFlix. But ever since I updated to OS 10.7.5 3 days ago, the fan moaning is incessant. Help! I just spent $200 on an old geezer "official Mac" technician, who came to my home office and spent 2 hours doing DiskWarrior!
I am so busy right now, I can't stop to take the tower to a local authorized shop. Will the noise sink my CPU? What is causing it? Is it a glitch in OS 10.7.5? Or do I need new fan(s)?
Anyone hear complaints of sudden incessant noise other than mine?

I used the following:
Copy and past the following in terminal followed by your password when asked for:
sudo launchctl unload -w /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.apple.metadata.mds.plist
Note that if you've got anything listed in the Spotlight control panel in Privacy, it will be deleted.
To turn it back on (which I haven't tried yet since I don't use Spotlight):
sudo launchctl load -w /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.apple.metadata.mds.plist
When Spotlight is frantically reading everything and indexing it, a lot of CPU % is used, and the HD is being exercised too. That generates heat and could be the cause of the increased fan noise when your Mac Pro speeds up its fans to try to protect itself. 10.7.5 seems problematic in this respect and since your noise problem started after the 10.7.5 update, the two might be connected. Apple tends to run a Mac Pro's fans very slowly to keep the machine quiet, so any speedup would be noticeable.

Deafening Digital Noise After Mixdown of a 5.1 Bus

I'm having some issues that have just cropped up when I try to 'multitrack mixdown' a bus from my film project. This .sesx session originally was imported from a Premiere project. The project is about 90mins in length and I am trying to export multiple 5.1 stems from each 5.1 bus in my project (SFX, VO, Music, etc). I am using the 24bit/48kHz wav format in the export settings.
This worked fine before but has just now resulted in files that consist of crazy 0dBFS digital noise in 2 of the resulting mixdown stems. It started happening after implementing a music ducker that is triggered from the dialogue/VO track... not sure if that would trigger this result or not. Has anyone run into this sort of thing? If so, I'd love to hear the fix!
Thanks!
I'm running Adobe Audition CC on OSX 10.7.5 on a MacPro 1,1

OK, I disabled and removed the effect I had added and got the same result. I chose 3 busses to export as pictured below:
and here's a shot of the waveform - zoomed in. Thats the shrieking noise I mentioned in the OP. Thanks for the quick response! Hopefully we can sort this somehow.

Picture has noise after export to JPEG

Hey guys,
I am using Lightroom 5.2 64bit version on my windows. After I export my raw in to the jpeg it has noise. But in the develop module it hasn´t. Also it has got a little bit noise in the library, but it´s the same picture. Where is the sense?
Here are some pictures of that problem:
1. The finally edited raw picture which I want to export.
2. The view from the library, you can see a little bit difference on the quality compared to the view from the develop module.
3. The jpeg after the export.
4. My export settings.
I don´t know what to do! I´ve googled a lot but nothing found.
Please help me and post any ideas.
Lovely regards
iAmAzInG

I have the same problem (OS X). Exporting to jpeg results in poor quality. This is a problem I didn't had with previous versions.
I took a look at the other threads which are mentioned here and effectively, the 1:1 view looks exactly like the jpeg export.
But this would be like looking at a 5x6 meter poster from two inches distance, which makes no sense. If you look from a 1 meter distance,
it is logic that you will see a bit less noise, things will look smoother.
This really is an issue. I always had an export and a print that looked exactly like how I saw it in 'fit' view in develop screen in previous versions.
It is completely stupid to be obliged to work in 1:1 mode for developing photos as this is the only option from what I read.
The image ont the left is a screenshot (apple+shift+4) from a jpeg export, 72 dpi, 1288px large side.
The image on the right is a screenshot (apple+shift+4) from a screenshot (apple+shift+4) from de the dev screen in LR, 'fit' view mode, 72dpi 1288px large side.
Both have a different size here because I didn't draw the same sized rectangles when taking the screen shot.
As you can see, there is a lot of noise that I don't see in the dev screen. The screenshot on the right is almost exactly what I see, except that it is a bit less sharper
due to jpeg compression, but it still is a better result than the compression of Lr itself. Should I process like this now instead of using export????
I loose sharpness but it has an overall neater look. The jpeg export is really crappy!
I did used a tiny bit of noise reduction and sharpening (23 - 22 respectively) and this has been shot at ISO 800, 5D miii.
The crop applied in Lr is maybe 8-10% so really not much. I avoid cropping as much as possible.
I updated to 5.3 and issue is resolved for me

HP PSC2500 All-In-One noise after Power Failure

Product: HP PSC2510 All In One
OS: Windows XP Home
No Error Messages
No Changes made to OS or Printer
The issue:
After a Power Failure, upon starting the printer up, the scanner bar attempts to locate the Home Position but once it gets to the area it is supposed to set at, it continues to move to the right and makes a repeating (gear) noise.
The only fixes I have come across are:
1) Opening the scanner bed (glass top) and cleaning the glass where the white strip runs along the glass.
This stops the noise and allows the scanner to reset corretly for 1 to 3 months.
2) Holding the Cancel button or OK + Cancel.
This allowed the printer to reset correctly 1 time.
Now, the Hard Reset and Semi Reset will not work.
Again, this issue ONLY happens after a power failure or if the plug is pulled...
The issue does not happen if the power is shut off correctly.
I am sure that Opening the top and cleaning the glass will work but this is a serious headache for a printer that cost over $225.
I am a Computer Repair Technician but Printer issues of this nature are not in my area of expertise
Is there anyone who can tell me the possible cause and/or Permanent fix for this issue?
I cannot find any other information about this issue online, and I cannot find a Service Manual.
Please help because this is my work printer.
Please email me at:
{Personal Information Removed}

UPDATE: As it stands, I opened the scanner bed and cleaned the glass Home Position strip (for the 6th time now) and low-and-behold, the printer functions properly again.
I know this issue will happen again in a few weeks to a month or so...
My question still stands...
Can ANYONE come up with a permanent solution to repair this issue?
Thanks again in advance.

Awful Static Noise After Installing GNOME 3

Hey guys,
I installed GNOME 3 last night and did not notice this until today. After setting the TIMEZONE variable in rc.conf and restarting the computer I am now experiencing a very high pitched static noise that I cannot stand. The static noise is just happening all the time, even when no sounds are playing or anything. I should note that installing GNOME 3 installed PulseAudio for some reason if that makes a difference.

ok, do you know if your time is set to UTC or localtime? If I'm not mistaken, UTC is recommended.
It sounds like your hardware clock is giving you the troubles. See here https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Time
You can change the time of your hardware clock via the command line by following the commands in the wiki.
I also noticed that you have hwclock in your deamons array in your rc.conf. Not sure if that's an additional source of trouble, see the "Common Problems" section of the wiki linked above for more info. I don't remember the reason why, but I did not include it in my deamons array and haven't had any issues.
Not sure if this is relevant, but if you dual boot with windows see the "UTC in Windows" section of the wiki as well as Windows could be changing your manual time adjustments back to what it wants everytime you boot into it.
