Hello Anton. Have you had any luck with your problem?
I have recently noticed that my Samson CO1U USB Microphone is now very quiet and muffled when connected to my MacBook and yet it still works fine on a Windows XP machine. As it used to be fine with my Mac before the 10.5.6 update I can only assume that this latest update has caused a big problem with some USB devices. Like you, I can't get any answers.
I am thinking of rolling back to 10.5.4 to see if I can use my Microphone again.

  • Razr M having sound issues after 4.4.2 update.

    So I turned my phone screen on and I saw that I had a update to do the 4.4.2 update and I left it while it updated. I came back and saw that everything was new but the sound keeps making this clicking noise. So when I get a text I hear an odd click followed by my text message tone. It's not just for notifications either, it does it before ringtones and even on the screen lock sound. I was wondering if anyone else had this, I haven't had the phone itself too long either.

    PLEASE STOP posting useless "safe mode/master reset" crap in here. It's obvious that these problems are happening to people RIGHT after the software update, and many have already said that they have already reset, etc, and done all this, and it doesnt help. Also, if you actually read, the Motorola forum post I linked to, people have reported similar and nothing fixes it. The update itself caused it. NOT any other apps running. If you have nothing productive or actual troubleshooting to add, please remain silent. Anything else, and you just post in here looking like robotic ******. That's my 2 cents.

  • Is there any fix for the bluetooth connectivity issue after most recent OS update?

    Seems to be a common problem particularly with bluetooth headseat connectivity. Any ideas?

    There is no bluetooth connectivity issue after the recent OS update. There may be a problem with your phone, which may or may not be related to the update. A "common problem" looks like this in the forums:
    I haven't seen any threads on BlueTooth with over 1.4 million views and over 12,000 replies, or even any vaguely close. For any problem that someone has there is bound to be someone else amoung 150 million users who have it. That doesn't make it a "common problem."
    If you tell us what the problem is specifically and what you have done so far to try to resolve it someone can probably help you.

  • Wine sound issues after update (Arch64)

    I've had Spotify running under Wine for a while, but after a recent wine update it said that there was a "problem with your sound card" and running the audio test via winecfg failed.
    I deleted ~/.wine and ran winecfg again and the audio test was successful... But when I ran it (or any other wine program) subsequently it failed.
    I re-read the wiki and tried running "WINEARCH=win32 winecfg" instead and adding "export WINEARCH=win32" to ~/.bashrc, but that hasn't helped either.
    A few days ago I set up a new PC and had the same problem, so I was expecting to see other people reporting it, but I can't find any mention of the issue, so I'm really stumped!
    Can anyone suggest how I can find out the cause of the problem?

    karol wrote:What do you use for sound - alsa, oss ...?
    I use alsa...  I think!  Although I don't remember specifically having to set up sound when I installed Arch.  The XFCE mixer panel applet shows "HDA Intel (Alsa mixer)" in the sound card pull-down menu.
    Since the Spotify instructions suggest selecting OSS in the winecfg, I did so - and didn't really expect it to work, but it was working fine like that for months.  Now the audio test (in winecfg) fails whether I select alsa, oss or jack.
    karol wrote:The most recent change wrt sound involves not autoloading snd-pcm-oss anymore.
    Yes; the problems I'm having occurred after a wine update roughly two or three weeks ago.  The more recent changes to /etc/rc.conf and module loading don't seem to have made any difference to the issue.
    It just seems really strange that the audio test works the first time I run winecfg with no ~/.wine profile...  And it's also odd that it just stopped working suddenly without me doing anything (as far as I know!) and that no one else seems to be having the problem, yet both of my Arch PCs are affected...
    I've just discovered that if I delete ~./wine and never touch the audio tab in winecfg, Spotify works on both PCs.  If I click the audio tab, wine says that "There is no audio driver currently specified in the registry.  A recommended driver has been selected for you...".  If I apply the changes the audio fails every time whichever driver I choose.
    Ideally I'd like to find out what's causing the problem so I can fix it and have winecfg working as it should be, but at least I have a workaround so I can listen to Spotify again...

  • Sounds issues after iOS 5 update

    I have been having sound issues with my apps since iOS 5 update.  Anyone having similar problems?  I have rebooted. It is the 4S.  And yes, the volume is on.

    The Basic Troubleshooting Steps are:
    Restart... Reset... Restore...
    iPhone Reset
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
    Try this First... You will Not Lose Any Data...
    Turn the Phone Off...
    Press and Hold the Sleep/Wake Button and the Home Button at the Same Time...
    Wait for the Apple logo to Appear and then Disappear...
    Usually takes about 15 - 20 Seconds... (But can take Longer...)
    Release the Buttons...
    Turn the Phone On...

  • Even more issues after installing 3.1 update.  What to do.

    HI there,
    It would seem that since I have installed 3.1 my iPhone 3Gs 32GB white is acting very strange. Heres my story...
    I have noticed the following behavior since the install. Sound randomly not working. Home button randomly not working.
    Have done a Restore
    Have removed all my applications thinking maybe an app was not compatible with the 3.1 update and therefore was causing the problems.
    ... still noticed home button issue even after removing all apps.
    ... sound issue happened once but seems OK now.
    I have read other postings about these two issues. It would seem others are experiencing the same problems. However, I found no fix for it. That is why I thought it might be an app interfering.
    As I said it still happens at random times but lately it has been working fine so I am wondering if it was an app I had installed.
    Just to add some history, this is my 2nd iphone as I had a problem with my 1st one. The one I am currently using was sent to me by my Wireless provider and it was refurbished. So I am wondering if the randomness of the home button was the reason this iphone was returned in the first place. And the problem is reoccurring. Or is it just consequence that it is happening now after I installed the 3.1 update.
    I have made an appointment at my local Apple store(genius bar) for them to have a look at it, however my luck is when I go the phone will be working fine and they will not do anything. The phone is not three months old so I fall within the 90 days warranty and I just purchased the AppleCare for iPhone as backup. I am hoping I will get a new iPhone to replace this one because it was refurbished.
    So my question is
    Do you think it was an application that was causing the issue or could it be a hardware problem with the button? Is it known fact that some iPhone apps are not 3.1 compatible and can cause issues?
    Thanks and I look forward to your replies.

  • Odd Sound Behavior After 10.6.2 Update

    I've had a few odd sound issues since updating to 10.6.2:
    1) Volume is set at 50% after some reboots (I normally have it set at 12.5%). This has happened about 1/2 the time after reboots (which have unfortunately been much more often in 10.6).
    2) While iTunes is playing the sound stops and the sound icon in the menu bar greys out. iTunes keeps 'playing' but I don't get any sound. This lasts for 5 - 10 seconds and happens a few times an hour but without any predictability.
    It may happen at times that iTunes isn't playing and I just don't notice it. It has happened while the system as announcing the time as well. This may be the cause of sound issue #3 but I haven't caught the sound icon in a 'grey state' when the notification sounds don't play yet.
    When the sound icon is grey I get the beach ball and Safari doesn't respond (standard 'Application not responding' message). Other apps seem to work while this is happening (Finder, System Prefs - including sound panel, FireFox, etc).
    3) Some expected sounds used for feedback in Finder & Mail don't always work. This is very intermittent and may be happening more often then I notice these are notification sounds and I don't realize that I've missed them. I don't know if it's associated to the sound failure mentioned in #2.
    ~
    I've also had some other odd behavior:
    * System won't wakeup from sleep (not always but often enough to require several reboots in the last week).
    * Safari just eats up RAM.
    * Safari has locked up for no apparent reason (no clue as to what sets it off).
    * Safari has locked up while using a Java applet. This only happens on occasion but always happens when launching a GoToMyPC session (GTMPC works fine in FireFox, even while Safari is locked up). This is separate from the Safari issue noted above.
    I'm using 10.6.2 w/ Safari 4.0.4 & iTunes 9.0.2 (Flash not installed)

    You could try [these grey sceen, etc., troubleshooting steps|http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2570] ignoring any duplicaion of what you already have don. And, you could try [these general troubleshooting steps|http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1394] again ignoring duplication.
    If all above fails, then I suggest you do a repair install of Sno by installing Sno over Sno as in an upgrade install. Such an install, while usually very safe, still is an install so be appropriated backed up if you proceed.

  • Sound Problems after Flash 11.3 Update

    This reply is to the post by Ortho_Fan, number 28, which references a Firefox forum and "Firefox Hates New Update." This thread is specifically about problems that Flash 11.3 is causing with Firefox but the problem isn't with Firefox, it is with Flash Player 11.3. 
    I have no sound with Firefox, Chrome or Safari.  I do have sound with IE9 but some people do not.
    See these and probably other threads:
    No sound in flash

    Problem with sound after update
    http://forums.adobe.com/message/4483038

    I've branched this discussion into it's own thread, because the issue you're describing is different than the issue from the previous thread, which was related to a specific crash instance.  We'd like to keep the threads focused on particular issues to help both investigate and collate the information coming in, and to aid in discovery for people that are experiencing similar issues.  A single thread with a dozen issues is far less useful in either regard.
    For the sound issue you're experiencing, I would recommend that you follow the advice in the threads you've referenced above.
    Flash Player 11.3 included new sound enhancments to facilitate support for low-latency audio, to facilitate more repsonsive sound in complex Flash games.  While we try to test a wide array of hardware, and conduct months of beta testing, it's impossible to hit every device, OS, browser and driver combination.
    Please ensure that you have the lastet drivers installed for your sound card/chipset.  If the problem persists, please post details of your configuration to that forum thread so that we can track down that hardware/driver combo and investigate the problem. 
    As a workaround, you may wish to roll back to Flash Player 10.3, until a new version is available.  Flash Player 10.3 contains up-to-date security patches (we maintain one major version back for Enterprise), and will revert the sound change that is causing problems for you.

  • IPad2 Issues after iOS 8.1 update

    iPad2 64g wifi + cellular -   very slow and non-responsive since iOS 8.1 update.  nonstandard Apps seem to be working fine.. it’s the standard item like photos and safari that don't  respond. 
    photos -  (which I use daily to show clients examples)  will freeze and kick me out back to the home page when trying to do anything from open a photo for viewing to trying to delete a photo. Edit.. forget it.   better off using an alternate app to edit a photo as it locks up and crashes every time.   I really need to be able to view the photos  on my iPad2
    safari -   good luck using any hyper link…. It doesn’t respond.   Even at Apple’s website.   Sometimes it crashes but most of the time it just ignores me like I haven’t touched the screen
    Overall - the touch screen is glitchy since the iOS 8.1 update.  It was slow after the iOS 8.0 update  but has become almost unusable after the 8.1 update.
    I cannot afford to purchase a new iPad.  And I really need to find a way to make this one work.
    I did read about how to restore to an older iOS version.   The only problems are all of my laptop is Windows based and the instructions assumed you had a Mac.   I did a backup to iTunes prior to the 8.0 update but I have also done backups since.   So I am not sure I have a “clean” iOS 7 backup.
    Any ideas would be appreciated   Thank you in advance for your help

    For the touch issues in Safari, does scrolling or zooming the page before you try to tap a link make it work again?  I've read a few posts that this may be a workaround for that issue.

  • Display Issue after 10.9.2 update

    After updating my Macbook Pro with Retina to 10.9.2 -- My display flickers for a second after sleep and or blank screen and then goes back to normal. Has anyone else been having display issues after updating?

    Yes similar problem here: I have a MacBook Pro, 15 inch Retina, Mid 2012, and when I connect a secondary display via HDMI (and also HDMI-to-Thunderbolt) then the external monitor becomes the main display.
    I have not figured out on  how to switch back to former settings. My guess: it's a bug. A quick search confirms that many others have secondary display issues since 10.9.2
    (Steve would have fired those lazy punks, who failed to do sincere testing before release …)

  • Macbook sound issue after standby

    Hello,
    Bit random issue here..
    This is not consistence but it is totally random. Randomly when i open the macbook lid when it comes out off standby by i hear a weird "ripping" sound issue i think its coming from left hand speaker or side. Im assuming its the speaker.
    Its hard to explain its starts with a weird fuzzyness and then it turns into a rip type sound and stops.
    It last about 2 seconds and is random and only happens after putting up lid.
    Is this normal? any ideas?
    thanks

    Upgrade kernel to 3.1.5 still not fix the sound issue
    On 12/14, I upgraded    imagemagick, pcre, texinfo, virtualbox-modules, wxgtk with `pacman -Syu`,
    after reboot, the sound comes back, everything works fine just like before
    But on 12/16, I lost the sound again, only found these line in kernel.org
    Dec 16 09:28:29 localhost kernel: [75508.452468] ice1724: Too long irq loop, status = 0xff
    Dec 16 09:28:29 localhost kernel: [75508.452468] ice1724: Disabling MPU_TX
    no matter how I tried to reproduce the upgrade on 12/14, still unable to fix the
    issue, and those warning didn't show up again, I also boot into live USB to check
    if this is hardware problem, but sound works normal in live USB
    it's so weird...

  • Mavericks: sound issues after wakeup mac air from sleep

    So I was wondering if anyone else is having this issue...
    I updated Mavericks(10.9) a few days ago. Every time I put my laptop to sleep or close it, and then I wake it... it did something very bizarre. My laptop woke up... kind of... there is no sound. The buttons on the keyboard work well,  I can increase or decrease the volume even mute it, but I can't hear any sounds. u can play the moives, musics, just no sound.
    In that case, I have to restart my laptop then it's ok. But if I close or sleep it, it happens again.
    It's boring me a lot, I hope there's anyone who can tell me how to fix it.
    As a note, I have a MacBook Air 2013

  • Satellite 100-192: Issues after the latest MS update...

    Satellite 100-192.
    After the latest MS update I first had the problem with the Realtek sound card driver. I solved it by applying the patch MS provided.
    Now the problem is that the disc cleanup utility does not launch. Anybody any idea?

    I just found out that my disc cleanup utility would not work because of a free program called Photo Toolkit. Although it is a nice little program to quickly edit photos, apparently it causes such problems when it is loaded.

  • How i get by with the sleep, pause issue after 1.0.2 update

    ok. i'm sure you guys are aware of the ipod sleeping/pausing issue after updating your ipod to 1.0.2. my ipod will pause whenever it is in the jensen dock station and the green battery indicator shows up. whenever i use the dock or remote to unpause the song, a few seconds later, it pauses again. so instead of using the dock or remote to play, unpause, whatever, i connect the ipod to the dock and use the wheel to navigate and 'only' use the play/pause button on the ipod itself to kick off the playing of music. if i go back to the remote, the ipod pauses. if i only use the menu and play/pause button on the wheel, my songs do not pause. it sure was nice using the remote before 1.0.2. i mean, it did come with the dock for my remoting pleasure but alas, i shall wait on the next update. hope this helps someone.

    I will have to try that... I took my iPod to work today and plugged it into my JBL docking station and it was skipping. I did notice it seemed to go to sleep more often when I used the remote... There's a whole other forum on this maybe you could check out too. But it's really annoying and I hope Apple comes out with a fix soon! I will definitely try to use the iPod wheel tomorrow and not the remote.
