Small "freeze" and sound issue when taking a full screenshot

Hello,
This is a strange one, and I've not been using Macs properly for very long, so bear with me
It only happens when I use cmdshift3 to take a full screenshot, the other shortcuts for taking them are fine, I do get a similar issue when using Grab and it, too, only occurs on the full screen capture. What happens is, the sound clip of the camera noise will begin to play, stop, it goes a little distorted then the windows on screen will freeze up, the mouse will still move, and it stays like that for around 5 seconds until the file is saved to the desktop and all goes back to normal again. I'd like to reiterate that it only does this when i do a full screenshot, and the smaller one with the crosshairs and the individual windows is perfectly fine.
I tried searching on google, on the main support section and the forums and nothing has come up that's been helpful. I've had a look in the system logs, and at the time's I take the screenshot, the system log reports the following:
Sep 24 14:04:09 xxxxxxxx-computer kernel[0]: IOAudioStream[0x4db4a00]::clipIfNecessary() - Error: attempting to clip to a position more than one buffer ahead of last clip position (2,728)->(3,7bd).

Sep 24 14:04:33 xxxxxxxx-computer kernel[0]: IOAudioStream[0x4db4a00]::clipIfNecessary() - adjusting clipped position to (5,73a)
I know from that it's referring to my soundcard and there's a memory reference, but that's about as much as I can figure out.
It might not seem a big issue as the other methods are ok, but if it turns out to be something much deeper I'd like to try and fix it now before it becomes a problem.
Does anyone have any ideas?
Thanks,
Claire

Bingo! EXACT same problem here! It seems to me its a software bug.. ??

No sound recorded when taking a video using iPhone 4 running iOS 7.1.1

Symptom: Randomly, no sound recorded when taking a video. (mics are dirt free and not blocked)
What fixed it: Restarting the phone after noticing Pandora couldn't play sound either.
Note: The video recorded before the restart still has no sound, meaning the glitch prevents sound from being recorded as well as being played from apps.
Question: Why hasn't Apple come up with an update to fix the software glitch causing this? Its obvious based on discussions as far back as 2010 that this has been an issue!
Hope this helps some people who are experiencing this issue.

Same problem. Now I have use Itunes alternative. Problem never with either IOS or Itunes

Firefox 3.6.23 having freezing and rebooting issues with Adobe Flash Player 11 Plugin

Firefox 3.6.23 is experiencing constant freezing and rebooting issues with Adobe Flash Player 11 Plugin, not sure if it is a conflict issue or not.
Since the update there had been no reported issues till today when the blue screen came up on me, this issue prior to plug in 11 had occurred at least 6 times, this issue only happens on firefox.
I do not wish to update since recent firefox browsers seem to have a lot of ongoing issues.

Anyone able to help please?
Thanks.

Freezing and Rebooting issue - Hardware or Softwar...

Sorry if this has been asked before...but...
Is the freezing and rebooting issue caused by a fault in the Hardware or Software...?
Can someone from BT please explain just exactly what is going on.
Thank you,
wdp

Just been on live chat as we are fed up of freezing up, random reboots and failed recordings. Usually happens on Gold, Sky Sports - the non freeview channels. Advice from Geetesh was factory reset thus losing existing recordings, stating rather optimistically that this 'will resolve the problem'. When pushed on freezing and failed recordings issue Geetesh said recording of 'internet channels is in a test phase so won't be able to record'?? But we have recorded on gold, fox for example - response is that it won't always work, only for some customers.
The advisor was getting confused. The bit about recording broadband channels still being in test phase only applies to BT Youview boxes. The recording functionality has been available for broadband channels on the BT Vision+ boxes since they launched last January.
To answer the original question. The occasional freezes and reboots are caused by the New Look software (possibly in conjunction with associated system changes on the BT servers). Many of us had years of trouble free viewing using the Classic software on the same black BT Vision+ boxes. It was only when we were upgraded to the New Look software that all the troubles began. If however, you are getting such problems many times per day, or even many times per hour that could indicate a hardware fault.

Work is lost after illustrator freezes and then crashes when copying over to photoshop

work is lost after illustrator freezes and then crashes when copying items over to photoshop, then when re-opening the illustrator file it gets to the end of reading the file to open then quits again? this keeps happening!

afrill,
It seems that you file has become corrupted.
One thing often tried first is to create a new document and File>Place the corrupted one to see how much may be rescued that way.
Here is a website where you can see whether it can rescue the file, and if it can, you may pay for a subscription to have it done,
http://www.recoverytoolbox.com/buy_illustrator.html
and another similar website,
http://markzware.com/adobe-software/fix-illustrator-file-unknown-error -occurred-pdf2dtp-file-recovery/
As far as I remember, the former is for Win and the latter for Mac.
Here are a few pages about struggling with it yourself:

My macbook pro keeps freezing and shutting off when I am browsing the web on Safari. How can I figure out what is causing this issue?

For the past few weeks my computer will slow down when I have been on Safari for awhile, then freeze, and then just go black. I have to press the power button and then it goes to a black screen with the apple logo and a loading bar underneath when it reboots. I'm not sure what is causing the issue, but on my previous mac it would have an error message if something like this happened that I could submit. Any suggestions of where to start to solve this issue?
Thanks!

These instructions must be carried out as an administrator. If you have only one user account, you are the administrator.
Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
Step 1
For this step, the title of the Console window should be All Messages. If it isn't, select
          SYSTEM LOG QUERIES ▹ All Messages
from the log list on the left. If you don't see that list, select
          View ▹ Show Log List
from the menu bar at the top of the screen.
In the top right corner of the Console window, there's a search box labeled Filter. Initially the words "String Matching" are shown in that box. Enter "BOOT_TIME" (without the quotes.)
Each message in the log begins with the date and time when it was entered. Select the BOOT_TIME log message that corresponds to the last boot time when you had the problem. Now clear the search box to reveal all messages. Select the ones logged before the boot, during the time something abnormal was happening. Copy them to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Paste into a reply to this message by pressing command-V.
For example, if the system was unresponsive or was failing to shut down for three minutes before you forced a restart, post the messages timestamped within three minutes before the boot time, not after. Please include the BOOT_TIME message at the end of the log extract—not at the beginning.
If there are long runs of repeated messages, please post only one example of each. Don’t post many repetitions of the same message.
When posting a log extract, be selective. A few dozen lines are almost always more than enough.
Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting.
Please don't indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
Please don't post screenshots of log messages—post the text.
Step 2
In the Console window, select
          DIAGNOSTIC AND USAGE INFORMATION ▹ System Diagnostic Reports
(not Diagnostic and Usage Messages) from the log list on the left. If you don't see that list, select
          View ▹ Show Log List
from the menu bar.
There is a disclosure triangle to the left of the list item. If the triangle is pointing to the right, click it so that it points down. You'll see a list of reports. A crash report has a name that begins with the name of the crashed process and ends in ".crash". A panic report has a name that begins with "Kernel" and ends in ".panic". A shutdown stall report has a name that ends in ".shutdownstall". Select the most recent of each, if any. The contents of the report will appear on the right. Use copy and paste to post the entire contents—the text, not a screenshot. It's possible that none of these reports exists.
I know the report is long, maybe several hundred lines. Please post all of it anyway.
If you don't see any reports listed, but you know there was a crash or panic, you may have chosen Diagnostic and Usage Messages from the log list. Choose DIAGNOSTIC AND USAGE INFORMATION instead.
In the interest of privacy, I suggest that, before posting, you edit out the “Anonymous UUID,” a long string of letters, numbers, and dashes in the header of the report, if it’s present (it may not be.)
Please don’t post other kinds of diagnostic report—they're very long and rarely helpful.

SD Card Issues and Sound Issues

Hello all,
I bought my Xperia Z2 probably 2-3 months ago and I have to say I do love this phone.
However I have come across a few issues that seems to be, not so common as I cannot find any solutions online (Which is why I'm here).
I am having 2 issues:
1st Issue:
SD Card Issue, this is a funny one as I have not been able to identify what actually causes this issue. Now this all started (or when I started to realise the issue) when I changed some settings in the Camera App. I saw that it was saving photos to "Internal Storage" and since I specifically bought a new SD card for the Xperia Z2, I wanted to store photos on the SD card instead.
So I changed it to SD Card Storage and all is well (At least, that is what I thought).
After taking some photos one day, I got home and wanted to preview them, in the photos app and Album (Sony's Photo Previewer) it shows that the photo is corrupted or missing (Depending on which app I'm using). This really annoyed me as the photos I took seems to be all lost and corrupted. So I tried to use a file explorer (Including File Commander) to find the actual file and open it, but it seems to have the same problem. I get this grey background with a picture of a mountain with like a thunderbolt sign (Broken sign).
Following this, I have also tried to copy some video files onto the SD card and it has been giving me troubles too. I tried to copy videos onto the SD card in 2 ways, first way is to take the SD card out, connect it to a SD card reader and plug that into the computer. After it finished copying onto the SD card, the files would just disappear (I use computers a lot and this was very surprising and new to me... It's like the SD card deleted the files right after it was copied, or maybe even 'hid' the files).
So since that method didn't work I thought I would try putting the SD card back into the phone and connect the phone to the computer then use Sony's MediaGO (Computer App) to transfer the videos and it sort of worked this time. I copied 14 videos over and only the first 2 videos are working, the others are all "Media is missing" or of some sort. I checked the video's format and they are all either .avi or .mp4 which I don't think is a problem as the first 2 videos are in .avi so surely other .avi videos would work too? Guess not...
So it seems like I am having troubles with Video and Photos on the SD card as music is working 100% fine. Used Media GO to copy the music on and it's all working wonderfully.
Some of you might suggest formatting the SD Card, I will say I have... I have tried the above methods before formatting AND after formatting (Formatting using Xperia Z2, or shall I say "erase").
The SD card I have is Sandisk's 64GB Ultra (I bought this to anticipate 4K or at least 1080p video recordings).
If the issue here is SD Card compatibility and I was silly enough to not have seen that prior, then I would gladly admit it's my fault and be happy that the solution would simply mean to buy another SD card.
But that said, I highly doubt that would be the issue due to the fact that the SD card is made for performance (Not the best performance as the Extreme and Extreme Pro range are a lot better) and the card is new.
2nd Issue:
Now this issue is not as bad as the first issue, it's something to do with the sound. I understand the phone has 3 sound controls, one for the Ringtone for when you get a notification or/and phone call, one for Media and one for Alarm.
What I do is I have the Ringtone volume sitting at around 50% and Media will be dependent as I change it when I open an app but the issue I've been having is this:
If I open an app (Mainly games that has sound/music) and I change the Media volume to say 70% or even 20%, whenever I get a notification whilst in-app the notification volume seems to be at 100% no matter what I do with the media volume. This is weird as my default Ringtone/Notification volume is sitting very low at around 50% or even if I change it to 20%.
What am I missing here? Any thoughts?
With the above 2 issues, last resort would be to factory reset my phone but will be willing to do it if there's a high chance of the issue getting fixed.
Your thoughts will be greatly received as right now I'm just lost and not sure what to do with the issues. I'm slowly getting the feeling that I should just give up on the phone and use it for phone calls, music and forget about the whole photo/video taking which is very sad as I love the phone's photo/video taking features.
Solved!

Hello Rickard,
Thank you for the link, I have started the test and 10 minutes into the test the speed for writing dropped. Anyways I only managed to get through in writing 8GB of data then I gave up. I then started to verify that 8GB of data that was written on the SD Card.
I have to say, it does seem like that SD Card is defective
Thank you for providing the link, what I will do now is get another SD Card and see if the problem is still there.
If the problem goes away I would consider my 1st issue being solved
However I am still not sure about my 2nd issue as this is not related to the SD card. Even without the SD card in the phone I seem to be experiencing this problem.
It's frustrating sometimes as if I'm trying to keep the volume down and play a game I can't because any notifications that comes through will be at 100% volume.
Perhaps there's a setting I'm missing?
Your help would be greatly appreciated.

Mouse freeze and sound cutting out

Since I've upgraded to OSX 10.9 (Mavericks), when I switch between open programs, my Logitech Performance MX mouse (uses USB receiver) stops responding for about 30 seconds. When this happens, the audio from my Bose speakers cuts out. While the Logitech mouse is forzen, I can still use the Apple bluetooth trackpad. To be clear, this mouse.audio chain reaciton issue doesn't happen every time I switch between open applications. It doesn't seem to happen specifically when switching out of any particular application but it does seem to happen more frequently when switching out of Firefox. But like i said, even with Firefox completely closed it still happens.
Sometimes the audio will stutter a bit and then will kick back in, but sometimes even after hours the only way to get audio is to either switch to the iMac's internal speakers, or restart the computer.
I opened the console to see what was happening when the mouse freezes and I get the following lines:
11/3/13 1:43:49.000 PM kernel[0]: com_Logitech_HIPointing::terminate(kIOServiceSynchronous) timeout
11/3/13 1:43:49.000 PM kernel[0]: USB Sound assertion in AppleUSBAudioStream at line 4767
11/3/13 1:43:49.000 PM kernel[0]: IOAudioStream[0xffffff8039764000]::clipIfNecessary() - Error: attempting to clip to a position more than one buffer ahead of last clip position (478,209a)->(4a4,f26).
11/3/13 1:43:49.000 PM kernel[0]: IOAudioStream[0xffffff8039764000]::clipIfNecessary() - adjusting clipped position to (4a3,209a)

Alright, so I solved this myself by changing the resolution. Would've liked to resolve it a different way, but this works for now! So, anybody else who may see my issue.... go to system preferences>display and change the resoltuion.

Freezing and major issues on Lion

I use Quicktime for workout routines, and it has begun to freeze constantly. Especially annoying when it cuts out during a set. The sound will continue to play, but the video will freeze, and any attempts to fix will result in QT becoming unresponsive. Also, force closing while the window is on full screen jacks up the player next time it's opened.
Some notes:
Running latest version of Lion and QT
Videos are in .mpg format
Perian is installed and at the latest version.
Playing thru HDMI on fullscreen
For now I'm using VLC player, with no issues.

Many thanks Cory for this. I actually live in the UK and based upon what you said, I ended up finding this site which was the only place which had the original battery available, not a clone or remanufactured. They do international shipping as well:
http://www.thebookyard.com
which turned out to be really good at providing all of the necessary tools as well.
I am posting back for everyone else to see because I am blown away that (a) it is so difficult to buy a battery for a less than 2 year old laptop ... (b) that a battery fails so quickly and (c) that Apple make it so difficult to change by fitting specialist screws within chassis that mean you need specific tools etc.
Nothing to do with "good design" .... just trying to extract as much money as possible.

Freezing and display issue

Dear All,
I had this imac from 2010. Now it's creating some issues. Daily when i start this Imac, its freeze on gray screen and its also show scrambled display. But after 5 or 6 time immediate power down and on. I am able to use the operating system. It’s a very strange problem after getting heat or something it able for use. I also reset the smc and Pram reset. I don’t think its operating system problem. Kindly suggest solution which work

This sounds possibly graphics related and sounds as though you are experiencing kernel panics.
Please post a copy of your latest kernel panic in your reply. To find the log, open Console application and look under System Diagnostic Reports. The log will start with "kernel_" and end in ".panic". Post the whole panic report in your reply.

R5K Sound issues when installing Windows 8.1

Hello everyone
I installed Windows 8.1 Pro as downloaded. I used BCA > USB on my R5K to install Windows.. (Boot Camp drivers via BCA as well). Everything works fine except the sound when using Windows. There is sound, but it all... sounds disturbing, like listening to a radio. Nothing like the sound quality when using OS X, no epic sound effects and crystals clear sound whatsoever. And I think it's not even using all the speakers at the bottom of the iMac when producing the audio. I tried playing with Sound setting in Control Panned, with the audio settings in MPC, VLC, iTunes, re-installed the drivers just to be sure nothing went wrong with the installation and nothing work, I am still getting that "crappy sound quality"...
I am welcome to any suggestions, spend half a day just trying to fix this... Thank you in advance

Does Apple Diagnostics indicate any hardware issues?

Embedded video's and sound issue

I have a keynote presentation I have created and I embedded a video in one of the slides. The video plays just fine on the iMac with sound but when I play it through Apple TV or a projector the sound doesnt come through the TV or sound system just through my laptop. How do i get the sound to come through the TV?

I assume you have used the headphone jack to connect your computer to the sound system. You have to go into system preferences and make sure the SOUND is set to output to the Line Out and not the internal speakers.
If you are AirPlaying it might be an issue with the age of your computer or you don't have Apple TV selected as the SOUND output preference.
Check your sound preferences to make sure the sound is being sent to the right place.

Apple TV 2.3 and sound issues

The 2.3 update seems to have cured the hang and reboot issues that were introduced in 2.2, BUT now when my TV show audio playback contains sounds like "ssssss", car engines, or white noise, I'm getting a strange oscillation in the audio. It's pretty irritating.
Anyone else?

Pixelated Graphics and Sound Issue (Gt70 2pc dominator gtx 870m)

Sup.
Bought my first MSI gaming notebook a couple days ago. It's fairly nice but it seems I'm having a couple issues.
First:
Sound issue. I have a Turtlebeach Z22 headset. When using it on my MSI laptop I get a series of pops every couple words. The Z22 uses both usb and aux for the mic/headphones and I have tried everything from swithcing jacks, usb ports, updating drivers and playing around with realtek settings. No dice.
Second: For some reason in game cutscenes have a lot of pixelation.
I have tried crysis 2 and farcry 3 so far on max settings. Any sort of cutscene that uses a video clip (like Farcry's video tutorials) has a lot of pixelation and is sometimes fuzzy. The games are usually fine for the most part. I have updated my gfx drivers played with gfx setting and set launching options to Nvidia as global.
Any ideas?

Do you mean the pop sound? It would be better if you can share a video or sound record of the situation.

Quiet manay people talk about the issue, try to change the game setting to improve the situation.
