Sound playback bug since 1.0.2

Thought this was an isolated glitch but now it's affecting other phone functions including voicemail. I noticed it when I was playing an podcast episode then selected another podcast, which began to play except now the sound is sped up to where a normal voice sounds like a chipmunk! Happened again when trying to playback other podcasts and stopped after a while. Today I played back an item from my visual voicemail list and all the messages were sped up also!

The audiobook playback speed setting does not affect podcasts, nor does it affect Visual Voicemail playback.
The original poster should try resetting his iPhone by holding down the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons. If this does not fix the issue, he may want to consider doing a restore in iTunes or contacting Apple technical support (either at the Apple store or at 1-800-MY-iPHONE).

    Hey Chris, thanks for all the keeping up with us and stuff.  I have an issue and i'm not sure if this was already discussed (if so sorry). Windows 8 IE 10 I'm getting an error tying to downgrade my customers to the beta.  The message i'm getting is
    The installation encountered errors:
    Your Microsoft Explorer browser includes the latest version on the Adobe Flash Player built-in. Windows Update will inform you when new versions of Flash Player are available.
    I have done my research and I cannot find how to fix this issue.  I have ran the uninstaller multiple times and restarted blah blah all the goodies.  It will not let me install the beta.
    Please help..... any idea how to get beta running on hundreds of my customers machines?
    The beta work's great it seems like and I wouldn't mind installing the beta on all their machines till the final release (which seems like a few weeks away)
    Thanks again, Tim

  • V7 Major Playback Bug - Garbled Sound

    Just upgraded to iTunes V7. Now I cannot play anything from within iTunes. When playing a song, it is just garbled. You can hear the song enough to tell what it is. But it is severly distorted. More of a "repeating warbling" type sound. Like a scratched record that is playing the same section over a few times before moving on. Also, when I double click a song to play, it takes 12-15 seconds before any sound at all comes out.
    In my other players, like Windows media, songs play just fine. All other audio seems OK. Just now cannot play anything in iTunes V7.
    I have had iTunes since at least version 4 or 5, and upgraded everytime a new version came out. Each time with no issues until now.
    Using Windows XP, SP2
    2 Gig RAM
    2 Terabytes Data storage
    AMD 4800 Dual processor
    Sound Card - Creative Emu 1212
    Any help would be appreciated. Thanks...

    Hey,
    I think this article will help: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93610
    Ive also seen similar issues when the Windows sound playback device is set to an application. The article above shows you howto get to Sounds and Audio Devices, you can change the sound playback device from the audio tab.

  • Pavucontrol/Pulseaudio hangs sound playback

    Hello everyone
    I've posted on this before, and the bug went away, but now it's back and I just wish it'd go away permanently. For reasons I can't explain, trying to control the volume with pavucontrol (or, it seems, any volume control that interacts with pulseaudio) suspends sound playback. And then pavucontrol crashes with a callback timeout failure error.
    I've followed all the various guides on setting up Pulseaudio. I've experimented with setting sinks, with setting sound outputs, everything. But time and again the pavucontrol applet brings the sound to a halt. As far as I know I've installed everything that might be needed. I used to like Pulseaudio, the whole control-volume-of-individual-streams is great. But it just doesn't work. And yet it's one of those features, which once you get used to it, is really hard to live without.
    How can I fix this once and for all?
    EDIT: Reading /var/log/errors.log I've noticed that Pulseaudio is failing to set hardware parameters with a connection timeout.

    Have you tried setting the pulse volume from alsa (amixer)? You should really bring this to the pulse mailing list, since this sort of bug is probably hardware/driver level and not very simple to debug.

  • Sound playback: no sound, abnormally high bitrate.

    I've been reading up on using JMF for simple sound playback all day, and I've seen countless examples that do the same thing I'm doing, but in every instance, I get absolute silence. Additionally, it seems that the read bitrate is higher than it should be, according to the control panel's properties dialog (e.g., 480Kbps for a 192Kbps mp3).
    The code always goes something simple like this:
        Player player = null;
        try {
          MediaLocator ml = new MediaLocator(new File("BGM.mp3").toURL());
          player = Manager.createPlayer(ml);
        catch (Exception e) { System.err.println("BGM messed up"); }
        if (player != null) {
          player.addControllerListener(p);
          player.start(); //this does realize and prefetch
        }I put some debug output statements in my controllerUpdate function, and it is indeed realizing, prefetching, and starting playback of the file. I have tried this with both wav's and mp3s (I have the mp3 plugin installed in addition to the JMF 2.1.1e itself), and have always gotten the same result - MediaTime progresses too fast, roughly 2.5 times faster than it should (5 seconds for every 2 real seconds), and I get no sound.
    At this point, after having tried at least 2 examples found online in addition to my own code, I'm convinced there's something up with my Java runtime in itself, not just my code... anyone have any experience with this kind of problem?
    System Info:
    OS: Windows XP Pro SP1
    Java Version: 1.5.0_02
    JMF Version: 2.1.1e (zip version [no performance pack], with mp3plugin added)
    Thanks in advance for any help.

    Do you use it in an Applet ?
    I'm also unable to play any sound with Java(TM) Plug-in 1.5.xx the
    plugin to all browsers nowadays.
    You mentioned you used it on Windows 98 SE.
    The old IE browser used the build in javaVM. It worked - just look at
    the java consol and you see a lot of warnings and errors -, but in the
    end it played video and sound.
    The only solution I found is to use Java(TM) Plug-in 1.4.xx. The
    'automatic search for update' box must not be checked, otherwise it
    will update to the newest Plugin and you face the same problem. If you
    want to place an applet on your homepage, just use video only - until
    now it works correctly on ALL PLATFORMS.
    There was a Bug Report 6245070 where I was asked as well to give an
    example a year ago, but this was all - no response at all. In this
    applets I used
    Content Type : video.quicktime
    Video Encoding : h263
    Audio Encoding : ULAW
    not even mpg3!!
    I tried to compile the whole JMF Version: 2.1.1e with J2SE 5.0 and
    Standard Edition 6 Beta. At one version I changed all the
    inconviences like the reserved words "enum" ..., and an other version
    with old style, which is possible with Standard Edition 6 Beta.
    It seem's the problem is not in the part you are able to compile. It
    seems to me it is in the sound.jar api, but I really don't know - just
    trail and error.
    Conclusion only JRE lower and until version 1.4.xx will work.
    It would be a pleasure to me if I'm wrong and there is a solution.

  • Sound/Playback Stops Suddenly in Windows Vi

    I have recently encountered a very strange problem with my computer: the sound/playback stops working randomly. For instance, let's say I've just rebooted my computer and have launched WMP to play some mp3s. It will work fine for anywhere from a day or two to, at minimum, a few minutes...and then, once an mp3 file finishes playing, sometimes I will hear a weird sort of "squeak" coming from the speakers--after which playback will not work--but even if I do not hear any sort of strange audio, if I click another file to play...WMP will load the media, but will not play it. The play button will switch to pause as normal, but the file will not play. The exact same thing happens in *other* media players, as well: iTunes, J. Ri'ver Media Center...even WinAMP. I have a SoundBlast X-Fi Platinum audio card, and have been running it under Windows Vista Home Premium since January with no problems. I have all the current Vista drivers installed for it, and *have* had them installed for months. I'm really not sure whether this problem is software- or hardware-related, hence the reason I'm crossposting this to?Microsoft's Vista?forums as well. What should my next step be? I'm not really sure where to go from here. Thank you!?Dere C. F. Pegritz

    I have the same problem here too. Vista Ultimate 64bit4Gb RamX-fi Extreme Gamer Pro?Currently have to re-boot when it happens. I have just installed the new drivers (30 May) - I will see if this has any effect!?RegardsBrian.

  • Lost sound playback for movies, podcasts, etc.  How can I regain playback?

    I have lost audio playback for movies, podcasts, etc on my iPad2.  New user.  How can I get my sound playback back?  It worked initially!

    discovered the solution from another discussion group. 
    Double clicking on the "home" button of the iPad opens a list of apps across the bottom of the screen.  Moving to the left end of this display there is an audio slide bar which was set to the lowest part on my iPad.  Moving this setting to a mid level restored sound to the video feeds I was having trouble with.

  • Sound playback in LT?

    a way to hear sound playback on an imported fcp movie file in LT? I could only get video playback, but sure would B helpful to have sound instead of just markers- is it a setting?
    thx

    Nope. Just markers. Bottom line: There's no audio playback support in LiveType.
    It's a silent app. That's a feature! No pesky sound annoying your studiomates.
    Your best bet is to have LiveType and FCP open at the same time. Save your LT project, and import it into FCP. When you change something in LT and want to preview it with sound, go to FCP (use Expose and you'll look cool), and play. It will automatically recognize the changes you made in LT. If you need to tweak, go back to LT, change things, and come back to FCP to play. it's really not all THAT clunky.

  • Bluetooth audio connected - no sound.  Ever since updating to software 5 .1   But wifes older iPad 1 on 4.2 still works. Exactly the same with my iPhone also running latest software update 5.1.1.  Could this be a bug with the new release?

    I have a Bluetooth receiver transmitter by Brookstone attached  to the home stereo that we use to connect via bluetooth and play music from Pandora etc. From our iPhones or iPad. It has worked flawlessly until I updated the software on my iPad and iPhone to 5.1.1. .  It still is able to connect but there is no sound.  When we use my wifes iPad 1 which is still running s/w 4.1 there is no such problem. Anyone else seen this and know  a fix?

  • No Sound Playing Music since last 12.1.0.71 update Win8.1 64bit

    Since the last update last week to 12.1.0.71 (Win 8.1 64bit) I am able to play content within iTunes program, but unable to get any sound from it. This is the same when I playback my music, or videos in iTunes. Worked fine before the upgrade.
    Sound works OK with other programs, and even Windows system sounds work fine. Just does not work when playing content within iTunes application.
    Tried making sound changes in iTunes and Sound control panel to no avail.
    Is there a bug in the iTunes 12.1 update ?

    There is an alternative downloader for 64-bit editions of Windows here:
    iTunes 12.1 for Windows (64-bit — for older video cards)
    that seems to address the playback issues that some users have been reporting with the full 64-bit version (the alternative installer here is the same architecture as most previous "64-bit" versions of iTunes, i.e., a 32-bit application with a 64-bit installer).  The "for older video cards" label appears to be something of a misnomer as some people have reported that this corrects problems found on current / high-spec systems.

  • SB Audigy SE (SB0570) / Win 8.1 64bit completely freezes on sound playback

    hi there,
    I got a problem: my audigy se doesnt work on windows 8.1 64bit.
    I freshened up my pc and installed a clean win 8.1 os on a new harddrive.
    I tried installing the official SB24_PCDRV_LB_1_04_0090a.exe driver.
    I got a audigy se (sb0570), and driver installation works fine. the card got recognized and it can play a sound, but after a few seconds my whole PC freezes without bluescreen. it doesnt matter if it is a flash video, a mp3 or just a windows sound; it always freezes. when the sound device is disabled, the system runs without freezes. I can start a playback, ofc there is no sound, but the system is stable.
    my card works fine on win 7 64bit with older drivers. plus, I am using the support pack 2.6 by daniel_k (I still use my old SDD with win7 on it and everything works fine). I also tried support pack 2.6 on my win 8.1 system but it doesnt even recognize the card. the newer support pack 3.0 does recognize sb0570 and actually the sound works for about 10seconds (my 5.1 system works fine for that 10 sec, all speakers are getting a signal, but then it freezes...).
    so, both the official and the unofficial drivers are not working.
    has any1 a clue?

  • Solution: iTunes "Analyzing Gapless Playback" Bug Fix

    I have seen many complaints of a problem that has become somewhat commonplace in iTunes. I work for a major Technical Support company and get customer complaints about this often. It is frustrating because I generally am good at solving issues. Now I have a solution and I wish to share it with everyone.
    The Problem
    The issue is whenever you open iTunes it begins "Analyzing Gapless Playback" for a certain number of songs. In my case I have discovered that once this issue begins happening...every single song you add to iTunes thereafter will be added to the list of songs that need to be analyzed. I had this issue in Lion and Mountain Lion. But I have heard lots of people have the same issue with previous versions of OS X.
    The Cause (hypothisis)
    My hypothesis is that the problem is that iTunes loses the ability to physically write the ID3 tag information. When you make changes to files the changes are saved in your iTunes library files but nowhere else. Because iTunes detects the ID3 tags untouched when it opens it assumes that they have not yet been checked for gapless playback thus performs the check. The problem lies in permissions. Some change you make (OS Upgrade, Reinstall, etc) cause the permissions in the folder to not allow iTunes to write the ID3 tags. I have tried everything I could think of to fix this and was unable to do so. I tried using MP3 repair programs (MP3 Scan & Repair.app)
    The Solution
    I have tried a lot of different things to fix this and the only thing I figured out is kind of a "catch all" but it works none the less. I want to preface this with saying this is kind of an extreme pain the neck thing to do but it fixed my issue. In my iTunes preferences I have enabled Keep iTunes Media Folder Organized and Copy Files to iTunes Media Folder. This is how I have always kept my iTunes. These instructions are assuming that is also what you are doing.
    Quit iTunes
    Navigate to your Music Folder
    Move all of the highlighted items in the photo below to a new folder on your desktop.
       4. Now launch iTunes. When it opens it will appear like the first time you opened iTunes because (duh) there is no media in it yet.
        5. Go into Preferences (advanced) and make sure your iTunes Media Folder is set correctly.
       6. Make sure that iTunes Match is turned off for now.
       7. Click File>Add to Library and then choose your iTunes Media Folder. You will then wait for a long time (most likely) while your media is rescanned.
    The Fallout
    At this point (if you organize your iTunes with precision like I do) you are going to find your iTunes Library with a little bit of disorganization (depending on how long the issue had been going on). Because iTunes had not been able to write to your ID3 tags many corrections you may have made over the past couple of months (however long the issue had been going on) will not be in effect. For me it wasn't so bad. I had about 200 songs & books that I needed to fix. Audiobooks seem to be more of a problem for me.
    So go through and get your iTunes Library back to the way you like it. Then turn on iTunes Match (if you have it). The reason we had it off was to make sure that your match data didn't get replaced with your iTunes Library mistakes not re-fixed.
    I have restarted my Mac many times and it has been about a day since I did this and everything appears to be working correctly.
    Prevention
    I wish I had something to write in this area but I have no clue how to prevent this from happening again. If I figure out a way I will be sure to edit this article. I am open for suggestions!

    Apple should provide a way to disable Gapless Playback.
    For Albums I guess checking is not so bad, though I prefer GP only to work when asked.
    However, there is a major bug.
    I record my own music which results in a single file with no Tags or references of any kind.
    When I one of these files to "Add to iTunes Library" I get the spinning wheel while iTunes
    tries to figure out if it is Gapless. This usually freezes up iTunes for about 15 minutes.
    Please Apple. Just give us a way to turn off Gapless Playback.
    I have my iTunes library on an external RAID drive, using a MacBook Pro.

  • Mpeg 4 - poor playback performance since Tiger/QT7

    Hello!
    Since my Update to Tiger/Quicktime 7 my .mp4 movie playback is very slow - from 0,02 fps to a few fps. I tried a lot of movies - with the same results.
    Movie size is 720xabout450, Audio AAC, Video Mpeg 4 (made with 3ivx - mp4-compatible).
    With Panther/QT6 with or without the 3ivx QT plugin everything worked fine.
    Removing all 3rd-party QT-plugins (incl. 3ivx) didn't help.
    System is iBook G3/800, 640 MB RAM.
    Any idea?
    No.

    I've found that movie playback in QuickTime 7 takes about 5% more CPU time than it did in QuickTime 6. That's 5% regardless of the codec you use. While that may not sound like much, if you were previously close to the edge of acceptable playback this change can make a surprising difference in results. You can go from mildly choppy playback to something that might occasionally fall to one half of your previous frame rate. In some cases it's not a slowly decreasing playback quality, but more like falling off of a ledge.
    You might also want to investigate to see if any background tasks are running that weren't present under Panther. Widgets would be the first thing to check. They shouldn't be a problem until you've launched Dashboard for the first time after a reboot, but thereafter they can cause problems (normally nothing to worry about, but I have seen a few cases of "runaway" widgets).<small><hr width="75%"><small>If this suggestion helps in any way, a confirmation or acknowledgment would be appreciated, since that would also help others who may be having the same difficulty. Do for others as you would have them help you.<center>Thanks for sharing, Waymen.</center></small>

  • Some Sounds Not Working Since iOS5 Update On My iPAD 2

    Since installing the iOS5 update on my iPad2, I am not getting keyboard click sounds, App sounds or Connection sounds. I did a complete reset and the sounds came back until I restored my backup. Now they're gone again. So obviously it may be something I have setup or a bug in iOS5 I would REALLY have to do a complete reset and setup my iPad2 from scratch again, so any ideas would be appreciated!

    First make sure that you have the sounds turned on in Settings>General>Sounds. If they are turned on then read the following.
    If you lose sounds for keyboard clicks, games or other apps, email notifications and other notifications, system sounds have been muted.
    System sounds can be muted and controlled two different ways. The screen lock rotation can be controlled in the same manner as well.
    Settings>General>Use Side Switch to: Mute System sounds. If this option is selected, the switch on the side of the iPad above the volume rocker will mute system sounds.
    If you choose Lock Screen Rotation, then the switch locks the screen. If the screen is locked, you will see a lock icon in the upper right corner next to the battery indicator gauge.
    If you have the side switch set to lock screen rotation then the system sound control is in the task bar. Double tap the home button and in the task bar at the bottom, swipe all the way to the right. The speaker icon is all the way to the left. Tap on it and system sounds will return.
    If you have the side switch set to mute system sounds, then the screen lock rotation can be accessed via the task bar in the same manner as described above.
    This support article from Apple explains how the side switch works.
