Static noise from hi-fi speaker when no music is playing

Hi all,
Recently, when the ipod nano (1st generation) is docked on the hi-fi speaker and not playing, we are getting popping and staic noise coming out of the speaker. Tried the speaker on different outlet, change the polarity of the plug and tried a different ipod (1st generation mini and ipod Photo) with no success. The static noise continues to comes out the speaker when no music is playing.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Skip

Unplug the ac cable and the batteries for at least 15 minutes, if the problem remains, bring it for service

    Why do I get a humming noise from my stereo speakers when I plug in my airport?

    Temporarily, please turn off your amplifier and/or powered speakers and disconnect the plug that goes into the AirPort Express audio jack.
    Plug a pair of headphones directly into the AirPort Express and listen for a few minutes.
    Do you hear the "hum" that way?

  • TS1717 i was wonering why is it when i restord my iphone5 from my laptop now when i try to play my music and movie a blog pops up saying (the requested URL was not found on this server)?

    I was wondering why when i restored my iphoe5 from my laptop now when I try to play my music and movies a blog pops up saying (the requested URL was not found on this server)?

    The problem resolved itself when I resynced the iPod with my computer. I suspect the error displayed when I tried syncing with my laptop and canceled out of it.

    Not sure if this will help but a reset is the first thing to try. To reset your device. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart. See if that fixes your problem.

  • Speaker Static Noise from my iMac

    Every on in awhile I get some static speaker noise coming from the bottom right side of my iMac. It is very annoying. It even happens when I have it muted. Anybody else have this problem.
    I am also sure it is not the hard drive or the fans. It is defiantly a speaker static noise.

    It does pop in and out and then there is just static noise.

  • Static Noise from Imported Songs

    I imported songs from my CDs using iTunes 7 and it created some static noise in some songs. I doesn't do that for every song, maybe one in every ten songs, but it is frequent enough to bother me.
    When I imported same songs using Music Match program and manually added them to iTunes, I don't hear any static noise.
    Any idea to solve this problem? Thanks.

    I too have this problem. This used to be the case with both Windows Media Player and iTunes. So, I updated my Windows Media Player to version 11 and overcame this problem in the windows side of things. I then import from the Windows Media Player or WMA format to iTunes 7 and do not have static. My problem began once my son imported his Wierd Al Yankovick CD directly to iTunes. Now every cd comes in with static. I still cannot import directly from CD to iTunes 7. And, yes, I do have the latest version. We should be able to do this directly.
    Any advice from anyone out there in Apple land as to make iTunes import correctly?

  • New PB 15" emits static noise from keyboard area

    Immediately after purchasing a new 15" PB there is a low crackle/popping noise coming from the keyboard area when the machine is on. It is loud enough to be heard from 5-8' away when working in a relatively quite work environment.The sound is also muted so I know that isnt' it.
    Spent an hour on the phone with applecare and they have had my PB since Monday morning with the 'Hold - Engineering' note pasted on the support website.
    Has anyone had similar problems?

    I myself have a titanium and a G5 (and have tested other aluminum powerbooks) that exhibit this behavior when the following conditions are met:
    previewing movies or audio in the Finder
    firewire or pcmcia soundcard attached and being used
    some applications cause this to be louder. it is more noticable when the processor performance is set to "highest" in the energy saver control panel.
    since you have a newer 'book, and there is no processor performance drop-down, i am curious about this. i have found it to be more noticeable on the aluminum powerbooks actually. probably just because the G5 is sitting under my desk as oppossed to in front me.
    just look around the forums for the word "sizzle" and you will read more about it. From my understanding this is standard and the noise is caused by the processor napping. Most people who are annoyed by this have installed CHUD (from Apple developer tools) to turn off processor napping. This makes the noise go away but it also does not sleep the processor. This shorten battery life and the fans to go on sooner since the powerbook runs hotter with this off.

  • Static noise from Skype

    While using Skype there is a deafening static noise. Even the other person can hear it. Also my IPad makes "robotic" noise when I turn it off or on.

    kaeandcolesmon,
    If you open the recovery drive (partition) it should only have a single folder (Recovery).
    To make sure that your not saving restore points to that drive.
    See:
    Start, Control Panel, System, System Protection tab. Make sure the D drive partition is set to OFF so that it does not save there.

  • Static crackling noise, Right speaker when audio is being played

    I recently purchased this Satellite C50D-A Windows 8 Laptop. I have had it for less than 3 months. Recently the right speaker has started acting up with some sort of high pitched static crackling noise whenever audio is played regardless of it being in a web browser or any other media. Even computer sounds are distorted from this. I typically use this computer for school and play music to study. How the hell can I fix this so I can actually listen to audio without this rather irritating issue? 

    I tried that and it didnt seem to do much of anything.
    I played part of a song on spotify and recorded it to perhaps give you an example of what it sounds like?
    I covered the left speaker so most of what you hear is the right speaker alone. The distortion is pretty clear when audio comes out of that speaker.

  • E66 static noise from speaker

    I'M having a problem with my E66, the speaker has a background beeping nosie when i slide the phone up and down. I have visted the nokia care center for 5 times and they cannot resolve the problem. Does anyone who have E66 has this problem, or is there anyone can help me with this problem...

    This sounds like too much of a coincidence, with all 3 phones the same.
    Does it happen with every call and all the time or does it only happen at a specific location when you call a specific number?

  • I get a static noise on my PC speakers when my iphone4s is close by ?

    Phone is not hooked up to speaker system or PC. Just in close proximity. Happens on different speaker systems ( PC, home theater)  . Does not happen  on car speakers.

    This is typically caused by file corruption. Delete and redownload those songs if doing so is free in your country.

    The MBA may be used for light game playing. It's not designed for heavy games that demand lots of CPU and GPU power. So you need to determine if the demands of the games meet what the MBA can deliver. It's also possible you are trying to play a game version that is not wholly compatible with the version of OS X in use. This can cause issues with compatibility. It's important that your MBA possesses the minimum hardware needed for a game. Note that having the minimum hardware does not mean that the MBA is suitable hardware.

  • Why is my iPod touch making a static noise?

    My iPod touch (2 gen) is making a static noise from the internal speaker. Anytime that I play my iPod from the speaker or headphones, it makes a static and crackling noise. However, it does work when I connect it to my iPod dock. I have tried the five R's and none of them work. What can I do to fix this?

  • Strange staic noise in left speaker when i start my MPB.

    There is a very strange static noise in the left speaker when I start the computer. Is there away to turn off the startup sound? I don't need it anyway.

    Are you sure it's static? I think it might be your hard drive.
    Some hard drives are louder than others, and on my MBP I can hear mine at all times when the computer is on and awake. The HD is located to the left of the touchpad, and if it's audible, it will kind of sound like it does when you listen to the inside of a sea shell. Kind of a soft, gentle "wooshing." Does kind of sound like static.
    If you gentle use your hand/wrist to place pressure on the area ovr the hard drive, does the static sound seem to get quieter? If so, it's probably just the hard drive (by putting some pressure on it I assume it gets quieter since you're eliminating some of the vibration).
    Anyway, a little hard drive noise of that nature is very normal. It bothers me sometimes in a quiet room, but it really is just harmless white noise.
    Hope that helps
