Speaker Issue when tethering

Has anyone else experienced an issue with their ipad's speakers when tethering?
My speakers are fine on most times, but when I am tethering, the speaker gives out a "static type" noise when playing music or using applications like garageband. When I turn off tethering, the speaker is back to normal. Is anyone else experiencing this?

Hi,
Your best bet is to run wireshark on your workstation to see how the packets are being sent to the iphone. That will tell alot right off the bat. Also what are you running for your headend, is it an ios router or an ASA?

VPN Issue when tethering using Bluetooth

Hi all.
I tether my laptop to my phone using USB, WiFi or Bluetooth as my primary internet connection (as I work remotely).
My preference is to connect using Bluetooth (persistent connection, low power), however if I try to connect my laptop to the Cisco VPN, it doesn't work: the VPN connection seems to be made correctly, but I can't see the my work mail server, intranet or http proxy.
If I connect using USB or WiFi, the VPN connects and everything work fine.
I don't like USB because every time I need to take the phone from the dock to take a call or walk away from my computer, I lose internet and VPN and have to reconnect.
I don't like WiFi because it uses too much battery.
Can anyone suggest what could be causing this issue?
Thanks!

Hello aalapdesai112,
Lets see if we can get you back to taking calls normally again. Start your troubleshooting with the article below and go through checking to making sure that you are up to date with your iOS as well as a simple restart on your iPhone.

In my first iPhone 5, the speaker didn't work and people could not hear me on Speaker phone when I used it. When I used the video recording it did not record sound at all only a hissing/static sound, no voice.

In my first iPhone 5, the speaker didn't work and people could not hear me on Speaker phone when I used it. When I used the video recording it did not record sound at all only a hissing/static sound, no voice. I wished for a software fix. I did a hard reset, nothing. I did a full restore to factory settings not putting my backup on and the problem persisted.

I did every step in the link that i have been provided with (thank you), but I’m
still experiencing the same issue. My experience with Apple has been
excellent and this has been the first time I have experienced something
like this with an Apple product. I hope we can find a quick solution.
In order to get the iPhone 5 as soon as it launched (being a major fan of
Apple products!), I purchased my iPhone 5 from the UK through a friend of
mine who lives there.
My question is: can I have the faulty device replaced within Saudi by one
of the official resellers here (we have 3: STC, Mobily and Zain)? I want to
avoid the disruption, complication and expense of sending it back to the
UK.
Could you advise whether this is possible or not, and if not how should I
go about having the device replaced?
Thank you in advance for your cooperation.

Nice try! Take a hike.

My Apple TV 1st gen will now no longer play any of our iTunes music, although it shows a speaker symbol when you select play on the track. Please help?

Are you streaming or syncing you music? Sounds like you're streaming music directly from iTunes.
There can be many different issues. First, try power-cycling you wireless router (leave router disconnected for about 1 or 2 minutes) to refresh the wireless communication betweek both devices.
Make sure all software updates have been installed, for Apple TV and iTunes.

Sound on MacBookPro stopped on internal speaker and when using earphones

Sound on MacBookPro stopped on internal speaker and when using earphones. I re-booted and tried again. No luck.

There are many possible causes for this issue. Take each of the following steps that you haven't already tried. Some may not apply to your model. Back up all data before making any changes.
1. Start with the steps recommended in this support article. Don't skip any of the steps. It's the starting point for further efforts to solve the problem.
2. Run Software Update and make sure you have a fully up-to-date installation of OS X.
3. If you've installed an application called "Memory Clean" or any other third-party software that is supposed to "clean" or "purge" memory automatically, remove it according to the developer's instructions and restart. You should do that even if the software is not causing the problem, because it's useless.
4. Other third-party software that has been reported to interfere with sound output includes "Boom" and "Samsung Kies." If applicable, uninstall according to the developer's instructions (not by dragging something to the Trash.)
5. If an AirPlay device is selected for sound output from iTunes (or from other applications via third-party software such as "Airfoil"), deselect it.
6. Launch the application "Audio MIDI Setup" by entering the first few letters of its name in a Spotlight search and selecting it in the results (it should be at the top.) Select Built-in Output from the list on the left. If the Mute boxes are checked, uncheck them.
7. If a red light is visible in the audio-out port when sound should be playing, the internal switch is stuck in the position for digital output. You may be able to free it by inserting and removing a mini-stereo jack of the proper size. Inserting any kind of tool in the port may cause damage that won't be covered by the warranty.
If there's no red light, the switch may still be stuck in the headphone position. Try to free it the same way.
8. Disconnect all wired peripherals except keyboard and mouse, if applicable. If more than one display is connected, disconnect all extra ones. Restart and test.
9. If you have a MacBook Air, turn off Bluetooth and restart.
10. Start up in safe mode. Don't log in; just restart as usual when the login screen appears. When you do, make sure the words "Safe Boot" do notappear in the login screen. If they do, the system is still in safe mode and sound won't work.
11. Reset the NVRAM.
12. Reset the SMC.
13. Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
/Library/Preferences/Audio
Right-click or control-click the highlighted line and select
Services ▹ Reveal in Finder (or just Reveal)
from the contextual menu.* A folder should open with an item selected. Move the selected item to the Trash. You may be prompted for your administrator login password. Restart the computer and empty the Trash. Recreate your settings in the Sound preference pane.
*If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. In the Finder, select
Go ▹ Go to Folder...
from the menu bar and paste into the box that opens by pressing command-V. You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.
14. Reinstall OS X after backing up all data.
15. Make a "Genius" appointment at an Apple Store.

Speaker issue after Mavericks Upgrade

I recently upgraded to Mavericks on my Mac Pro (mid 2010 ver.)
Now when I try to listen to Pandora, iTunes, or anything that pushes sound thru the O/S, the sound "jumps" between my Bose 5 companion computer speakers (USB) and the internal Mac Pro speakers.
Additionally, when I go to Preferences-----Sound, you can literally see the O/S jumping back and forth to these two rows "Built In Internal Speakers" and "Bose USB Audio USB". More specifically, you will hear the music thru the Bose speakers and then about every 20 seconds (sometimes it goes for over a minutes) it will "beeeeeeep" and then jump to the Mac Pro internal speakers.
I tried deleting the two .plist files as previous mentioned in past threads with no luck. Before I upgraded to Mavericks I never had ANY sound/speaker issues what so ever.
Any suggestions? Thank you

Update Saturday Jan 4, 2014
Before my Mavericks upgrade on my Mac Pro, no problems ever (use my Mac 4-8 hours a day) using my Bose Companion 5 USB connected speakers. I've tried shutting the Mac down and plugging the Bose USB cable into another open USB port = no joy and other combinations. I tested the same Bose Companion 5 USB speakers on two other laptops with NO issues (ouch...they were running Windows 7) I have deleted the two .plist files, did the CMD+OPT+P+R reset, etc... = no change. Looked into Midi Audio Setup and did not see anything in there to change even though I tried a couple of things and no avail (there was no Garageband setting/entry).
I still get a solid "BEEEEEEEEP" sound every 20+ seconds, when the sounds tries to toggle, by itself, between the Bose USB Audio device and the Internal Speakers.

Palm TX speaker issues

Ok. First of all, I have to admit to still loving my Palm TX even though Palm has abandoned the stand-alone PDAs. That being said, I'm still troubleshooting my Palm TX speaker issues. I previously had no sound from the headphones or built-in speaker. I have replaced the built-in speaker, but nothing changed. Lo & behold when I look at the headphone jack one side is disconnected from the motherboard. When I physically hold the headphone jack in place, I can get some sound from the headphone jack (left headphone when headphone is completely inserted, right headphone when partially inserted). However, no matter what I cannot get any sound from the built-in speaker. I have tried canned air & WD-40 & when I have the TX disassembled, I can see the headphone switch (at least I think it's the headphone switch) moving on/off.
Now, if I solder the headphone jack onto the motherboard will this complete the connections for the built-in speaker (so that the TX will work as originally manufactured)? Or should I try to find a headphone jack replacement? I've searched for a motherboard replacement but this seems cost prohibitive since everything else is in perfect working order.
Thanks in advance for your help/assistance.
Post relates to: Palm TX

It would be my best guess that if you repair the broken headphone jack, it will return normal operation of the speakers.

When I get an call the phone switches automatically to speaker phone when I pick up the call

When I get an call the phone switches automatically to speaker phone when I pick up the call.
I then have to press the handset button to get out of the speaker phone mode.
How do I set it to goto the handset automatically.
I have the most up-to date software and I have pulled that battery.

That's just what happens when you do a battery pull. If your phone is turned OFF, the cache is not accessible. As you're probably aware, anytime any electronic device is acting up (PC, printer, modem, etc.), unplugging it will correct many issues; it's the same with your phone.
I can't offer a really technical explanation, just trust me on this one and remove your battery while your phone is ON.

I have the Verizon Pantech Jetpack MHS291L mi-fi. Will it charge when tethered?

I have the Verizon Pantech Jetpack MHS291L mi-fi. Will it charge when tethered to a laptop or router? Do I need to change it back to the Charging setting to get it to charge? The main question is can I use it in its tethered setting and have it charge through the USB connection at the same time?

USB cords come in two flavors, data and no data. A normal USB cord will provide a full data connection between the devices it is connected to, as is often the purpose of USB. There are also USB cords that are power only or no data whose purpose is specifically charging devices only. If you connect a device with a power only USB cord then your devices will charge but will not be able to communicate to each other.
We used to work around issues like this on the forum by suggesting that folks purchase specific power only dongles for their Jetpacks. I remember lots of threads where people contributed steps on how to splice and disable the data connection on a USB cable just to use the charging features without interfering with the computer. This was more of an necessity on previous Jetpacks when the tethering feature was not quite working as expected. Thankfully the industry has caught up and improved on this limitation so we don't need to worry about it anymore.
Regarding your question, the answer will depend on your USB cable. At the very least your jetpack will charge while USB connected. If the proper connection is available then your Jetpack will attempt to tether and communicate over the USB cable too. You will have to experiment and decide if you want the connected device to attempt to download and install drivers to leverage the data connection or not. If not then revert back to a power only USB connection.

Soundblaster Audigy 2 ZS Platinum - Speaker issues not covered by FAQs

FSoundblaster Audigy 2 ZS Platinum - Speaker issues not covered by FAQs? ?
Greetings..
Running into a bit of a issue here I can't seem to fix. I've gone through the troubleshooting guides and FAQs already and they aren't resolving the issue.
My normal setup is a couple of desktop speakers plugged to the rear of the card through the standard ports (non-digital) and a headset with mic plugged to the device in front that includes volume controls for both mic and speakers.
I've just did a complete reinstall of Windows XP (32 bit) including everything up through SP3 and a reinstall of the drivers and associated software applications for the card as well.
The problem I am having is that I can no longer make the rear speakers (desktop speakers) play when plugged in. The 2 headset speakers still play just fine that are plugged in the front however.
What should I do to resolve this issue so that I can have both the desktop speakers and headset speakers both playing? I'm fairly sure I'm just missing a setting somewhere but for the life of me I can't figure where to fix this.
Thank you,
Culann HS

JRe: Soundblaster Audigy 2 ZS Platinum - Speaker issues not covered by FAQs0 I'm afriad that the CMSS3D option did not work? ? I still cannot get any speakers to play out of the rear of the soundcard.
As I said before, the goal is to try to get sound to play out of both the headset and the speakers attached to the rear of the soundcard simuntaneously.
The headset is plugged into one of those devices in the front that is in a 5 & /4" bay that has the individual knobs for adjusting volume for the headset and outbound levels for the microphone.
The speakers are plugged into the back of the soundcard and do not play any sound in any of the sockets, starting from the firewire port and counting 3 over.
Any suggestions? I? thought it might have something to do with the setting of the speakers from control panel - > Sounds and Audio Devices -> Advanced and picking the right choice there. No luck however. Same for the Creative Speaker Settings as well.
I'm at wits end and I'd be very thankful to whoever can resolve this for me. =)

Iphone 3G S speaker issues with SMS

My new iphone has a speaker issue. When I get a text message, email, or alert the first one sounds like the speaker is blown out or distorted. However, if I go into setting to recreate the sound, it's normal. It seems to be just on the first text if the phone has been sitting for like 5 minutes. I called Apple and they said to do a restore and set up as a new phone. Did that and it is still doing it. Has anyone else had this problem or swapped their phones out yet? Just want to know if this is a hardware or software issue. I am leaning towards software because if it was hardware wouldn't it do it everytime?

I believe it may be a Sofware problem. Others are having various issues with sound as well...

PC speaker beeps when changing volume

Everytime I adjust the volume when listening to file/CD's with the bulit-in Realtek audio - the friggin' PC case speaker beeps like it is posting ???
This does not happen when using my Aardvark card for recording.

Actually, I got a better explanation from my engineer friend on this last night. It has to do with star grounding techniques & high-frequency EMI/EMR. Some mobos actually have the mounting points intended for ground & some don't.
As explained to me:
Early PC's were intended to have the mobo isolated above the ground plane and this worked great up until about 700MHz or so. Above that frequency things start to get weird (esp. on current machines) from an EMI/EMR perpective (my friend is primarily an audio engineer that also is a great electronic tech). Having the mounting points grounded helps to control radiation of these ultra-high frequency soundwaves thus cutting down on issues caused by EMI/EMR getting into other areas of the machine - feeding back into CPU/mem/components, and also causing issues with nearby equipment. Among other things, simply controlling the EMI can give you a much higher stable potential clockspeed in ideal situations.
By the way - I did get the pc case speaker issue handled - figured it out thru trial & error - Realtek software does not like the windoze volume control.
PS - I never implied that the connectors onboard mobos are inadequate for proper operation of the circuits, that is their exact job. Was only referring to control of EMI/EMR, nor improper shorting to ground which should NEVER happen!

W520 - Cold boot issues when docking, undocking

Has anyone seen this? My W520, BIOS 1.34, has issues when I cold boot for the FIRST time when I move the machine either to or from the mini-dock. What I mean is it doesn't boot quite right if I shut it down docked, then cold boot it undocked or vise versa.
By issues, I mean that although it boots into the Windows 7 desktop, most apps won't load. It is hard to describe.
My solution is to cold boot again. Then everything is ok.
I know the stock response - boot a minimal system, upgrade drivers and BIOS etc etc etc. I'm just wondering if anyone has seen this before and knows the exact cause of this issue. It sure would save me some time investigating.
Speaking of BIOS, what are the odds of Lenovo releasing anything further for the W520 i.e. "Version 1.4" without the 1333Mhz cap on memory?
