Popping/clicking sound after update

i've just updated with the recommended superdrive firmware 2.1, itunes 7.3, security update 2007-006 (universal) 1.0, mac os x update (intel) 10.4.10 and security update (quicktime 7.1.6) 1.0, and have now noticed a noice that sounds like a loud enough but dull thudding click/pop, more or less on the height of my charge cable socket, in the speaker on the lefthand side of my keyboard
it is not rythmical and stops after 10 min or so, but starts again every so often and than dissappears again for a short time.
changing the angle of the mbp doesn't make a difference...
anyone with the same?
does anyone know what it is and how to get rid?
thanx

I am not convinced this is an audio issue. I've turned off my external audio and turned down the internal speaker and the clicking persists.
The "click" sounds mechanical and I am wondering if this is the internal drive? I have tried SMARTreporter and there are no problems reported.
I am no longer hearing the "ping pong ball drop" sound as the internal drive thermally recalibrates. Have Apple changed how the drive calibrates itself during the latest updates?
I work in a very quiet office and this is really beginning to grate!
If this is a drive fault I'd rather get it sorted now rather than wait for it to fail mid-project.
Any help will be most appreciated.

  • Pop/clicking sound when in 5.1 mode under Vista 32bit using the latest 2_18_0004 drive

    I'm using S750 speaker system, very noticeable!!!!
    I tried 7. mode, still pop/clicking sound!!!!! But no in stereo mode!!!!
    It's long time for users that reported this issue, after Creative Labs released so many driver versions, this issue still not been
    corrected, it's really SHAME!!!!!
    Hope this get worked out in next release!!!!!!
    Hope this will never be heard in X-Fi 2 !!!!!!

    X-FI 2 is the same failure as X-FI IN drivers hardware xfi is great, so if you buy the new x-fi2 there will be the same crappy drivers as you use now.
    Anyway, Please post spec, Because this is a hard problem to solve many things can make the Sound to crackle.
    PSU = To low Watts for a system can make the soundcard crackle,
    =2, sharing power with other devices like hard drivers floppy drivers etc.
    = Not goot psu enough, bad quality psu can make this beli've me i had the same problem
    = Quality cables to the soundcard, use a different rail if that is possible.
    Bios = check for bios updates. even if there is none information about creative, sometimes it can help BUT READ INSTRUCTIONS on how to do it and what the stakes are if you do it wrong, and read the forums about the new bios, not allways new bios is good. IF you are a Asus user you should know why.
    GFX = Place the soundcard (PCI) away from the grphics card, if you got ex 4pci slots and gfx pci express use the last slot for soundcard, if that dosnt work try 3,2, etc. but futher away from the graphics card should prevent EMI
    X-FI= check the power slot in soundcard check for bendings etc.
    I had this issue fixed it with new psu, had no idea first but after my ASPIRE TRIO 520w cought fire and i changed it to Antec 620w it allmost dissapeard, then i checked the power slot in X-FI and it was bent outwards, after carefully bending it back the crackle dissapread.
    Now im using Cooler Master Real Power 850emba and using a different rail for the soundcard.
    Hope you solve it, best regards Commander

  • HT4623 My iPad 3 has lost the speaker sound after updating to iOS 6.1, headphones are working fine

    My iPad 3 has lost the speaker sound after updating to iOS 6.1, headphones are working fine. Please help me out, done all the troubleshooting like restarting, side switcing, cleeaning the headphone jack etc.,

    Hi I also have this problem. Sound was only working on the headphones and also on the volume slider in the settings app. Everywhere else I get no sound and no volume slider. Now the headphones don't work either.
    (I'm using an ipad 2 iOS 6.1.2) 
    And NO it's not muted. I've reset all settings and restarted the iPad. Been searching forums for a couple days. Some say its a dirty docking port problem, others suggest a Skype or other app update that could be the problem.
    No volume control icon appears when I press the volume control buttons. Only says sound effects, if it says anything at all. Most often there is NO volume icon. YouTube, video, music, and other game apps, no sound.

  • Poor sound after updating to ISO 7

    Poor sound after updating to ISO 7. Before updating i had terrific sound both on my music and videos I recorded with my cam, i had to turn it down. Now, after update, i put volym on Max and can hardly hear the music or whatever. Anyone else with same problem?

    I also loved my iphone because it HAD great sound.  Since the update of the iso7 for my iphone 4s, i am missing my calls because I cannot hear the phone ringing.  The sound is so low even though I have it on the highest sound possible.  The is something in the update that caused this problem among others such as the phone blinking out while I am viewing videos.  Help Apple!  THe battery is going from 100 percent to 20 percent in two hours even when I have almost turned off everything on my iphone.  I need my sound back!  Apple please find out what happened in your update that caused the loss of the sound!

  • Problem with sound after update

    Hello
    After update to 11.3 I have no bass sound in subwoofer in Firefox browser (youtube). I uninstall the newest version and install previous (11.2) and bass plays ok.
    My os: Windows 7 x64. Sound card Creative X-fi.

    Hello!
    My problem is summed up in this topic.
    Updated Flash Player with 11.3 this morning (june 12th 2012) and since then my 7.1 Sound System works only 2.1. If i enable EAX Effects, works on 7.1 but since it`s just a room it sounds very odd.
    I have no problem with sound on HTML 5 websites for that matter, Winamp, Video Players, games.
    Uninstalled Flash Player, sounds work ok without it on different browsers, other than Chrome (since it has FP built in).
    I hope for a sollution soon.
    Thank you.
    *edit*
    Untill there is a permanent solution, i found a way to deal with my issue and i hope it will help others.
    I personally use Chrome and this is for this browser:
    1. Type "about:plugins" w/o the quotation in the navigation bar.
    2. On the upper right u will see "Details" click it then find the word "flash", and you will see something like this:
    Flash (3 files) - Version: 11,3,300,257
    Shockwave Flash 11.3 r300
    Name: Shockwave Flash
    Description: Shockwave Flash 11.3 r300
    Version: 11,3,300,257
    3. I say again, this worked for me on Chrome. The 3 files i have, two of them are Version 11,3,300,257 and one is 11.2.31.144
    4. Simply disable the lates version 11.3 and enable the previous version 11.2
    I hope this helps.

  • No keypad sound after update the software into 10.3.1.1565

    Hi guys..please help me. I'm using Z10, after update the software into 10.3.1.1565, there is no sound of the keypad, eventhough i have made the volume of the keypad sound to the maximum.
    Is anyone has any idea or suggestion about it? Thank you.

    Lots of users are complaining about issues with Contacts from OS 10.3.1 udpdate (Q10 v5).
    I've tried everything under the sun (reinstalled OS multiple times, completely wiped my device, etc) and the problems still persist.
    I've noticed that if I repeatedly disable and re-enable Contact syncing via Settings (and then waiting an hour or two), the Contacts will eventually appear after about 5-10 attempts, and my text messages and phone calls will show names again.
    BUT, as soon as my Q10 soft resets for any reason (if battery dies, for example), all of my main Contacts completely disappear. Then I have to repeat the steps above every time.
    There are a few other things I've noticed:
    1) If I click "Edit Contact Folder Settings" button in Account Settings, it shows Contacts, LinkedIn AND "LinkedIn 2". I don't even have LinkedIn installed!
    2) If I turn OFF the toggle switch to "Sync All Contact Folders" then click save, it doesn't actually save my settings (usually if something saves successfully, the devices seems to think for a few seconds, which doesn't happen). As soon as I go back to manually edit the Contact folders, the settings are reverted back to All Contacts.
    So frustrating..

  • No more sound after update to IOS 8

    After updating to IOS 8 the ringtone, keyboard click etc.. doesn't function anymore.
    Earphone works alright.
    When rolling back to IOS 7.1.2 all works fine so I think I can rule out a
    hardware problem.
    I have checked/tried the following:
    -Mute bottom
    -Volume
    -DND function
    -turning off Bluetooth
    -turning off Wi-Fi
    -Checked airplay
    -cleaned connectors
    I already had this problems
    when I was trying the beta versions of IOS 8 and assumed that it was a beta
    bug. So I downgraded to IOS 7 in the hope that by the release of IOS8 it would have
    been solved. Apparently not...
    Anyone some ideas what I can do?

  • Clicking sound after waking from sleep

    My PBG4 makes a slow clicking sound (about 9 seconds apart) after I wake it up from sleep. Could this be my hard drive dieing a slow death?

    Could well be.
    Open the system profiler. Click on ATA, select the disk name and under the info for the the disk see if it has passed its SMART status.
    If not, it's giving you a warning before the inevitable.
    Whatever you do back up your data now (copy your home folder to an external drive) or attempt to clone the HD with Carbon Copy Cloner.
