Restore sound when not using headphones?

Sound works only with headphones. How can I get sound back without headphones?

Hi William, begin by opening "System Preferences". Next proceed to "Sound" (under the "Hardware" category). Then go to the "Output" section. Select "Internal Speakers" as your output medium. Proceed to select "Sound Output" from the drop-down list titled "Use audio port for: ". Finally ensure that the "mute" checkbox is unchecked and that the volume slider is at an audible setting.

Speaker sounds bad when not using headphones

I wanted to listen to my music on my iPhone so I started to play a song, the first song sounded fine. By the middle of the second song, the quality of the sound got really bad...full of static, almost like I had bad reception. I switched to the headset and it sounds fine.
I guess the iPod part of the phone wasn't meant to be listened to w/out using a headset?

Not at all. I do so often without any problems and when listening to music via the speaker at the office, I need to keep the volume fairly low so you may have a defective speaker which is covered under warranty. I also watch movies using the speaker for sound when not in a noisy environment.
If you live near an Apple Store, I suggest making an appointment to have this checked and if you don't, give AppleCare a call - (800) 694-7466.
You might try a Reset first by pressing and holding the Home key and Sleep/Wake or On/Off key simultaneously until you see the Apple logo and then release ignoring the slide to turn off prompt when doing so. This does not affect any data or settings.

Low sound when I use headphones to my iPad

When I connect my headphones to my iPad I can only hear the music very low in the background. Almost totally silent.
Even if I change the volume there is no difference. I see the volumebar change, but the sound will not be any higher.
When I disconnect the headphones I can hear the music again and the volumebar is working as it should.
What should I do?

First check that your headphones work in another device to be sure there isn't a problem with them.
Check to see if this is an issue only with music. Do you have the same problem watching videos?
If only for music, check to be sure you haven't enabled Volume Limiting by looking in Settings > Music > Volume Limit. If it's on, turn it off.

No sound when not using earbuds

I don't have any sound on my ipod touch 2nd gen when the earbuds aren't plugged in. It just started. I know about the side buttons, but they don't work unless the earbuds are plugged in.

Go to the home screen (no app running) and try the volume buttons.
On my iPod, I see a speaker symbol with a series of square dots below it indicating volume setting. If my headphones are plugged in, I get the same symbol with the word (headphones) above.
You might try inserting and removing the headphones about a dozen times.
Otherwise try to restart and then, if needed, reset your iPod.
Restart: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until a red slider appears, and then drag the slider. Then press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.
Reset: Press and hold both the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
If nothing helps, you may need Apple service. http://www.apple.com/support/serviceassistant/overview.html

Camera sound when NOT using phone

My husband's Blackberry 9330 has been making what sounds like a camera shutter sound randomly at all hours of the day and night. It doesn't matter if you are holding the phone, have it laying on a shelf, carrying it in your pocket or even have the phone sounds muted. Have gone through all the sound effects and the one we are hearing isn't even listed and it is a different sound then when you take a picture with the phone's camera. Help!! It's starting to drive us nuts!!

Turning the phone off and back on again or pulling the battery out while the phone is on doesn't work either

I have a MacBook Pro 15" 2007 which sometimes goes berserk writing the letter 'h', and makes a fast tapping sound when not in a doc. It stops when I hit the delete key. Also can't use the letter 'h' in a word processor.

I have a MacBook Pro 15" 2007 which sometimes goes berserk writing the letter 'h' in a word processor. It stops when I hit the delete key for a while. Also can't use the letter 'h' in a word processor. The computer makes a fast tapping sound when not in a doc, in any application or in the finder or when a application is running. Sometimes when this is happening I cannot control the cursor. I have to hit the 'delete' key to proceed. Does anyone know anything of this?

I suggest an appointment at an Apple store genius bar for a free evaluation.
Perhaps an Apple Hardware Test may provide a clue:

Hi, I have an iPhone 4 which rings people when it is locked, whether or not in my pocket. I always lock it when not using it. Can anyone help? It is calling random numbers, not the last person or anyone even recently called on my recents list. Thanks

Pay no attention to iinami, the amount of replies to people saying their handsets must have been jailbroken everytime iTunes throws out an error is tremendous. (Clearly you don't need to have any real knowledge to get to level 3 on these forums, let's hope apple's geniuses know a lot more than some of their customers.)

Solution below.
Error 9
This error occurs when the device unexpectedly loses its USB connection with iTunes. This can occur if the device is manually disconnected during the restore process. This issue can be resolved by performing USB troubleshooting, using a different USB dock-connector cable, trying another USB port, restoring on another computer, or by eliminating conflicts from third-party security software.

In my iPad mini,when my use in app streaming , there is no sound.. Can anybody help? It used to be ok before. For example, there is no sound when I use YouTube clip in a news item or magazine like pulse..

nno sound when I use in app streaming

Hello Saranginotes,
After reviewing your post, I have located an article that can help with iOS audio issues. It contains a number of troubleshooting steps and helpful advice for the issue you are experiencing:
If you hear no sound or distorted sound from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch speaker
Can't hear anything from the built-in speaker of your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch? Maybe you can hear, but the sound is distorted, muffled, intermittent. Or maybe you hear static or crackling noises. If your iOS device has any of these issues, follow these steps.
Follow these steps and test the sound after each one.
Go to Settings > Sounds and drag the Ringer And Alerts slider to turn the volume up.
If you can hear sound from the speaker, then the speaker works. Continue with these steps to find the setting or switch that's affecting the sound. If you can't hear sound from the speaker, contact Apple Support.
Make sure the Ring/Silent switch is set to ring. If you can see orange, it's set to silent.
Restart your device.
Open an app that has music or sound effects. Adjust the volume with the volume buttons or the slider in Control Center.
Go to Settings > Bluetooth and turn off Bluetooth.
If there's still no sound, connect a headset. If you can hear sound through the headset, remove it and clear any dust or debris from the headset jack of your device.
If the device is in a case, make sure that the case doesn't block the speaker.
Use a brush to gently clear any debris from the speaker and Lightning connector (or 30-pin dock connector). The brush should be clean and dry and have soft bristles.
Update your device to the latest version of iOS.
If you followed these steps and still hear no sound or distorted sound, contact Apple Support.
Thank you for contributing to Apple Support Communities.

How do I turn off background ni file activity when not using Labview? files such as nimxs.exe, nipalsm.exe, nipalsm.exe, nisvcloc.exe, nicitdl5.exe

How do I turn off background ni file activity when not using Labview? I use labview rarely, and I also use my computer for demanding multimedia applications, including multitrack digital audio recording. I need to reduce as much background activity as possible, and taking a look with task manager I see files such as nimxs.exe, nipalsm.exe, nipalsm.exe, nisvcloc.exe, and nicitdl5.exe running even when I haven't used Labview (8 I believe). These files run even after I right click the NI icon on the lower right and turn off the application. I would like the computer to boot up without these files, and for the necessary files to be activated only when I start the program.
Can this be done or do I have to remove labview from the system to improve performance?
Thanks

Hello, those processes are part of running NI services that start when Windows boots. These processes serve varied purposes and stopping them can have undefined and unknown consiquences for your NI products. These products run at "normal" priority meaning that they should be preempted by any process running at a higher priority which I would expect your other application to be doing given their time sensitivity. That being said, in Windows XP (I can't speak for other OSes), you can lower their priorities even greater through task manager (right click the process»set priority) to further remove them from contention for resources. If you want to prevent them from running you can set the service startup type to "manual" in Control Panel»Administrative Tools»Services. Right click the process go to Properties and Under the General tab choose Startup Type»Manual. This will start up the processes only when something directly starts it up. LabVIEW will start these processes up as it attempts to use them. When you shut down LabVIEW you will need to manually shut down these processes through task manager. Again, doing this can cause problems with your NI products on your system and it is not advised.

Is there any way to turn off airport without removing the electrical plug and should I unplug it when not using it??

I just got the 5G Airport Extreme base station. Set-up was a snap! Maybe 10-15 minutes compared to a friend who got another name brand for his pc and took a couple hours, even having to call customer support! Been working great so far, but am concerned about never turning it off, not only about the possibe harm that could be done to the unit, but also about having an active, open Internet connection 24/7. Before I got my Airport Extreme I was using Ethernet cable with a cable modem that could be placed on "standby" whenever I was not using my Mac for Internet, but since AE5G doesn't have a power switch on the unit, have left it turned on rather than unplugging it by the electrical cord. I did turn AirPort "off" in the menu bar when not using it wth my Mac, but AE is still apparently constantly active, showing a steady green light. Would there be any harm done by plugging it in only when I want to use Wi-Fi, then unplugging it?
Thanks for the help!

That is a matter of debate, since there are two schools of thought regarding power status on a router.
One school maintains that you can turn the device on and off as needed. Makes sense for some folks. The advantage of this is that it might save a bit of electricity, although the Extreme draws very little power most of the time.
Another school believes that there is a reason why Apple did not even place an "Off" switch on the device. It's designed to run 24/7.
Leaving the Extreme on will place far less stress on the electrical components in the device since they stay in an "idle" state most of the time, drawing very little current. Powering any electrical device up sends a sudden rush of current through the device, which places far more stress on a device than if it is simply left on.
It depends on your priorities. If you want to save electricity, your decision is already made. If you intend to prolong the life of the router, then consider leaving it on, as Apple intended.
A compromise position might be to leave the Extreme on most of the time and power if off for long weekends or vacation periods when you will be away. Remember that the Extreme must establish all new network connections every time that it powers back up....perhaps another reason to simply leave it on.

Validation messages in JSF (when not using ADF faces)

I've spent some time with JDeveloper 11 and would like to use it on an upcoming project. I have to target IE 6, so I won't be able to take advantage of ADF Faces. Instead I'd like to use the ADF Business Components with a standard JSF interface so it can be used by people still running IE 6.
I've created a Business Component from a database table and can bind a JSF HTML Creation Form by dragging the appropriate view from the AppModule in the Data Controls pane. However, when I attempt to submit the page without all the fields being valid I get the following validation error message:
j_id__ctru2:j_id__ctru6: Validation Error: Value is required. j_id__ctru2:j_id__ctru6: Validation Error: Value is required.
I've tried making this more descriptive, but editing the error message in the Validation Rules section of the Business Component has no effect. What's the best way to convey a meaningful validation message to the user when not using ADF Faces?
Also - I'm still very new to JDeveloper. Since I won't be able to rely on my users having Internet Explorer 7, would you recommend I stay with JDeveloper 10? The examples and documentation I've seen so far for JDeveloper 11 appear heavily biased towards using ADF Faces so I'm starting to wonder how much support is there for using plain old JSF.
Thanks for your time!

Hi,
if you are completely new to this then I suggest to use JDeveloper 10.1.3 and ADF Faces in there. Its good to use with IE6 as well. Currently we do have more tutorials available for this release than for 11, which for this reason is a better choice for someone new to this

X61 Hang when not using AC adapter

X61 will hang (on the login page, sometimes when using the laptop halfway), when not using AC adapter.I've format the system, install drivers (system update) and application.
anyone encounter this issue?

I notice if I disable Atmel TPM (from Device Manager), the system works normal when not connect to AC adapter.
I did not have most of the Lenovo software installed. Only have System Update, Fingerprint software & Power Manager.
Will there be any issue if I disable the Atmel TPM ?

Install the required Windows drivers: Boot Camp Support Software 5.0.5033. Download this link preferably from Windows. Otherwise, download onto a FAT formatted USB disk from which you can copy to your Windows system.

When not using EJBs can I make BD a Singleton and cache facade instances?

Hi,
In an application which does not use EJBs can I make BD(Business Delegate) a singleton?
I was very sure about doing this but when I tried Google on the same subject the answers were'nt supportive of this but that was in the context of applications which used EJBs. And also item 4 in Effective Java isnt very supportive of caching Objects at the drop of a hat.
When not using EJBs would it be an unnecessary thing to make BD a singleton and cahce Facade instances in a BD and DAO instances in a Facade? I am planning to use a array based blocking bounded buffer for the purposes of caching. Or would it be better to make both BD and a facade as SIngletons and just cache DAOs in a Facade?
Any suggestion would be of good help to me.
Thanks a lot.

Not sure I understand all your design, but you seem
to describe an architecture where requests are queued
and handled serially.Sorry if I messed up while explaining it. No, it will not be handled serially. Since the BD is a singleton multiple threads can pass messages to it simulteanously, a bit like an object of the Action class in Struts. Since I dont see having any synchronized methods in a BD requests will be handled simulteanously.
The impact on throughput of handling requests
serially (as opposed to parallelizing them) probably
outweights by far the cost of instantiating one more
object per request...Yes, I understand that but as I explained above the reqests wont be handled serially.
To be more clear, I am thinking of using any one of these two things:
1) BD(Singleton)-->Facade(Singleton, caches DAOs in a thread safe data structure)
2)1) BD(Singleton, caches Facade instances in a thread safe data structure)-->Facade(caches DAOs in a thread safe data structure).
the thread safe data structure I am planning to have is a array based bounded buffer which blocks using wait and notify mechanism.
Thank you for the reply.
