Sound/modem problem with 865

hi guys, i've found the cause of the sound disappearing every now and then, its caused by the internal modem and audio clashing... i have no idea wat causes it exactly, but i'm using my old pci modem and its fine, the sound and internet work again . but would be better if i could use the pci slot for a tv tuner card though . Can any1 help me out?

cos i got the HTPC, cos its small and all compact... if i have all these external usb bits and pieces, my whole desk would be all mucked up and most important point of all is, i'm broke!!!

    JoBautista,
    you still have the option (before your warranty expires) of purchasing an AppleCare Protection Plan, which will provide an additional two years of coverage. Once your warranty expires, you will no longer have the option of purchasing AppleCare.

  • Possible internal modem problem with older iBook (Mac OS X 10.3.8)

    I have an older iBook - from year 2000 or 2001. So its airport card is so old it's stopped reliably working & I don't know where I could find a replacement. In the meantime I want to get internet connection on it so I've tried plugging a phone cord from the wall outlet (that I always use succesfully for my desktop PC) into the laptop and typing in the phone #, account name and password of my desktop's internet account under "internal modem." BUT I keep getting a busy signal over & over when I dial up. I called my ISP & they thought it's a problem with my laptop's modem. I called Apple & they thought it's an issue with the ISP. Help?

    Hi,
    So its airport card is so old it's stopped reliably working & I don't know where I could find a replacement.
    If you have been using an internal wireless network, the router (base station) should (normally) allow you to connect via an Ethernet cable from the corresponding port in the iBook as well.
    BUT I keep getting a busy signal over & over when I dial up
    Without knowing any details, this seems to indicate that the modem does work. Wrong number/own number? Have you checked that everything has been entered correctly according to the instructions from the ISP?
    Could KB article # 106748 possibly be of any help here?

  • New Sound Quality Problems with Flash and Macintosh

    First I noticed the the Flash 8 Video Encoder exported low
    low quality sound, as if pass through some bit-crusher folder,
    happened on several macs in the office. Finally, I try it on
    Windows XP, and no sound problems with FLV export (and it was
    exporting videos 400% faster than macs).
    Now, both inside Flash Ap itself, and worse in the SWF,
    stream sounds are low-quality, with 16bit 44k pristine-sounding
    source files.
    If anyone has answers (I've been searching for a couple days
    now) please write [email protected]

    Hi guys - last time I looked no one had posed a similar
    posting, so I went on just now and posted to the link below. Don't
    wish to hijack this thread at all - sorry - but are we having a
    similar problem? cheers Rob

  • Intel iMac with Speedstream 5100 modem - problem with connection

    I am running my internet/email using a Speedstream 5100 modem. My service is with SBC Yahoo (dsl line). My modem with stay up for a while and then at some point during the day decide not to work any more. I must turn it off and turn it back on (sometimes 3 or 4 times) to get it to work.
    Is anyone else using this modem? Any problems with it? Should I call SBC and ask (or demand) a new modem???
    Thanks!

    rick,
    Still having problems with my imac g4.
    I called tech support today and I told them about all the problems that I was having. He had me put the current operating system disk that I was currently running on my computer and he had me run the utility file and nothing found.
    Then he had me run the operating system disk that came with the computer but my computer froze up and I could not run it. He told me to take it in for service and that it was a hardware problem. After I hung up with the tech the computer started up and I ran the operating system disk and it said no problems with the hardware.
    While the computer was still running,I got on the internet to go to the site that you listed above because I wanted to print a copy of the site to take with me tomorrow.
    My computer froze up with 18 repeated lines of errors.
    I will be taking it in for services tomorrow.
    Will let you know what I find out.

  • 3G BT Broadband Huawei Modem problem with Tecra M5 or XP

    Please can you help?
    I have a Huawei E180 USB stick for accessing mobile broadband that was issued by British Telecom (BT). I want to use it with my Toshiba Tecra M5 (Model PTM 50E - 013013EN) laptop running XP Professional (SP3).
    When inserted it is recognised by XP as a Huawei device but its pre-installed driver software does not autoload.
    When I manually install the drivers downloaded seperately via BT connection manager software, I receive a generic/non specific Windows hardware conflict warning and the device will unfortunately not complete install and function.
    I have spoken at length with BT support but despite sending me a replacement device and checking USB power supply the problem persists and they have been unable to help resolve the issue and have left the problem with me to try and resolve simply saying I must have a problem with my laptop!
    As far as I am aware my Toshiba laptop and XP operating system have the latest released updates and other USB devices such as flash storage and WinTV tuners all work perfectly when installed so please can you advise what else I can try or what further information I can supply for you to assist me?
    The device does install and work as expected in another Windows Vista Home Premium PC.

    Eureka...Success thanks to Google and Huawei support.
    Having run a Huawei diagnostic tool and displayed hidden devices in device manager, I discovered old Fusion and Globetrotter 3G/GPRS drivers were still installed despite having been removed by the add/remove software utility. So I finally uninstalled them from device manager.
    This must have helped avoid any potential conflicts however, I think the main issue was missing usb.inf and usb.pnf files from windows\inf once I obtained them from another XP SP3 PC (a known good install) and put them in that folder, rebooted, reinstalled BT connection manager and rebooted again.
    Then as soon as I inserted USB dongle it did everything it says on the tin!
    So in the end a relatively simple fix in a matter of minutes....What a pity then since the end of July, I have had to sweat blood and tears myself, facing the wrath of 'the financial director' for wasting our money and my time, to eventually find a solution from Huawei (the manufacturer/supplier of the BT device) when BT Helpdesk could/should surely have got this answer quicker themselves and I bet this is a solution that many others will find resolves their problems as well. What a waste of hours and hours on the phone to BT Mobile Helpdesk.
    Still a couple of minor glitches (do I really need 3 or 4 clients (2 at least from BT) trying to manage my wireless client?) and Desktop Help doesn't even support the 3G BT mobile device so why does it insist on trying to when I lose a signal?
    Hey ho, rant mode over, the good news is I still have 4 or 5 days to use my 1GB 'free' allowance for this month. Finally, thanks to Tim Naish and Archibald Duffer on BT forum for their time and hope they find this solution of interest.

  • Modem problems with neo2 865pe (help?!)

    I just upgraded my computer today with the exception of sound card/cdrw/dv/modem everything is new!~
    My problem is that I have modemblaster ESS chip modem and I am running windowsXP SP1.  Windows sees it using IRQ18!
    I have onboard FD controller, LAN, Com1, LPT1 enabled,
    I have disabled com2 and onboard sound.
    I have 2 optical drivs using the ata66 connector and 1 serial ata 80gig HD using both in native mode.
    When I try to connect to the internet the computer immediatly disconnects.  My ISP (earthlink) says this is a windowsxp or motherboard(modem) issue that they won't help with.
    I purchased these upgrades just for online gaming and now I cant even get online.  Windows XP says com1 and com3 are active yet there is absolutely nothing installed.  I haven't installed anything but INTEL INF drivers, new bios (tried 1.0 and 1.40) and windowsxp updates. The modem is using the latest driver as well.  
    Windows XP shows the modem and S-ata controller are both using IRQ18 and nothing I do to manualy change the irq for pci slots in bios seems to have any effect.
    Thanks in advance

    When I built my computer I think the exact same thing happened to me. I could dial up but as soon as it began authenticating it would immediately disconnect me. I had a broadxtnd modem (something like that), on a guess I tried buying a different modem a Zoom and it works just fine. I tried all of the PCI slots with the old modem and none of them worked, this new modem is working just fine.

  • Sound channel problem with Personal Cinema FX500

    WinXP SP1
    MBoard : ASUS P4S533
     (CMI8738 on-board Audio)
    MSI Personal Cinema FX5200 MS-8918
    The problem is that in the setup of WinDVD, the only audio source i can choose in WAVE,
    but the sound output of the video tuner is on Line-In, of course.
    Because of this problem, the remote affects the volume of WAVE, and has no effect on the Line-In channel. And, of course, when recording, the sound on the wave channel is recorded,
    so, no sound !
    Any one encountered this problem ? I installed the drivers on the original CD.

    After nearly 3 months, I came up with the answer myself:
    I installed a new driver (639) for the CMI8738 on-board sound and now the "Line In" option appears in the WinDVR setup.

  • Sound input problem with Skype earbud

    Just trying out Skype, and using a wired earbud I got free. The earbud is Skype branded, and has 2 minijacks - one is headphone and one is microphone.
    When it's plugged in, if I go into Sound preferences there is no input if I choose Line In (rather than built in microphone). I have made sure the input level is turned up.
    Any ideas? I will check if the earbud works with any other devices, as I suspect they're quite cheaply produced!
    Update: just checked another headset that's the same and it doesn't work either. Neither work with our iMac. It's interesting that they seem to be incompatible.

    Did you get this problem resolved?
    I am having the same problem: unable to input sound....

  • Problem with sound, and problem with video transitions

    For some reason my audio isnt locked with my video anymore so when I move a clip the audio doesnt follow does anyone know how to fix that?
    Also, when I put in video transitions instead of just switching from the first clip to the second clip it flashes an image from other pieces of footage while transitioning and I need to figure out how to fix that too.
    Anyone know how to fix these?
    thanks

    Thanks i got the audio problem fixed.
    When I open up final cut it says some of the media has been disconnected but it then says I can't reconnect it or something like that, I don't know if that effects the transitions. I split up a lot of footage and rearranged it and for one of the places where it flashes a clip it shows one of the pieces of footage that I had deleted because it had a glitch and the other places I noticed it it had random clips from throughout the project, like a flash of an interview that happens way later in the film. So it is random clips that are in the film and even clips that I deleted.

  • BT Infinity modem problem with Kelly Communication...

    Hi all,
    I am using Unlimited BT Infinity 1 (just for one month). I just received a call from a mobile phone regarding my broadband modem. He said he is from Kelly and there is something wrong with my broadband equipment. He is going to send an engineer to my home to change something (like taking the modem back?).
    I searched on the forum and found a post about "Infinity Modem Swap & Kelly Communications" but that's about 1 year ago. In this post (http://bt.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/37051/) it said:
    "We've been working with Kelly Communications to replace the Openreach modems for some BT Infinity customers. We've now finished this work."
    anyone else gets the call? not sure if it is a genuine contacts because they didnt even veryfy any account detail (but he said he knows my address).
    Cheers
    Chris

    It could be that they have used an old modem and are going to swap it.
    You could try calling BT to see if the know anything about it.
    If they do come to your house make sure you verify their details and check ID card and stay with them when they change the modem over. If at all in doubt don't let them in.
    If they telephone again and ask to check your computer do not let them. They have no need to do that.

  • No sound only problem with sms

    Hi Jon,
    When you adjust the volume on the iPhone does it show (headphones) even though headphones are not connected?
    If it does try the tips in this article: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1630
    Try resetting the iPod by holding the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons until you see the Apple logo as described here: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=305743
    If the issue is not resolved by removing debris from the headphone jack or resetting the iPod, try restoring the iPod and setting it up as a new iPod. This article: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=305744 will walk you through restoring the iPhone.

  • Sound check & problems with iTunes startup

    I recently changed my iTunes settings to allow "sound check," which normalizes the volume of the entire iTunes library. Nothing happened at first, but the next time I opened iTunes, the little now playing window said "determining track volume: 1 of 222," and iTunes and my computer froze immediately. This has happened every single time I've tried to open iTunes since. I'm kind of at a loss for what to do, because once I open iTunes, I literally can't do anything except shut down my computer. Any ideas??

    I had that problem too. Maybe it works when you change your Bitrate in Itunes. My Bluetooth speakers run at 48 Khz and after the Itunes update, Itunes changed his settings to 44.1 kHz (before the update it was also 48kHz). I hope i could help you. Sorry for bad english i'm from Germany

  • HDMI sound output problem with gtx670

    Hello again!
    I have recently purchased a brand new Samsung TA550 LED monitor to use with my Mac Pro desktop. My Pro posesses a GTX 670 graphics card with (obviously) an HDMI output channel. The thing is, when i plug the hdmi cable on the card and on the monitor and configure the monitor for the appropriate video settings, there is no audio. Then I go to the system preferences ----- sound------ output, and there are no options for hdmi or my tv/monitor.
    Does anyone know whats goin on?
    Thanks

    It is flashed? or it is a straight PC card. And while there is support (you probably want to check other threads and sites and wait a day to upgrade to 10.8.3) some PC cards will not act and behave the same as say under Windows.
    I would contact MacVidCards (ebay and MacRumors forum) and see if he can flash it or knows more.
