Static when backlight turns off on Monster icarplay

hey, about two days ago my 30 g ipod started to become have a lot of static when i played it in my truck with my monster icarplay.i have the volume on the ipod set to about 80% and it is on a good frequency. the music sounds fine when the backlight of the ipod is on, but as soon as the light turns of the music becomes staticy. i've restarted the ipod several times and nothing has worked except to keep the backlight on all of the time when i am driving. Please help.

Don't be in too big a hurry to pick on the PMU. It could be a problem with impedance in the power circuit either inside the Powerbook or outside, like SuperSizeIt found with his surge suppressor. If your power line voltage is /i always /i at least the minimum specified on the AC adaptor, then check the following: are the contacts on the power cord clean? If not, polish them with a pencil eraser. Does the problem occur on every outlet, or just some? (Sometimes old outlets get corroded, especially in buildings with humidity problems.)
If AC power is not the problem, then remove the battery and inspect the contacts on the battery and inside the Powerbook. If there is a film or other contamination on them, gently remove it with a white pencil eraser. If there is significant corrosion on the battery, it's time to get a new one. A weak battery can also cause the problem.
Explanation: during high current operations such as reading an optical disk, excess resistance in the power circuit may cause the internal 12 volt supply to drop out of regulation faster than the battery controller can pick up the load. The inverter output voltage will then go below the level the backlight (fluorescent tube) needs to stay on. It then requires an inverter restart (extra high-voltage pulse) to reignite the backlight tube. The fast way to get an inverter restart would be to press the power key, then after the beep, press "s" to put the computer to sleep. Wake it up, and the display should relight.

Why is my music stop playing when the backlight turns off?

Hi I got a new iPod classic about 2 months ago and now every time the backlight turns off it stops playing music. Can somebody help me because the only solution I found was to put my backlight to ''always on''

This is usually a sign that your headphones are not plugged all the way in. Make sure the white part of the headset is flush with the body of the Nano and no silver from the plug can still be seen.
If you are 100% positive that the earbuds are all the way in, double check to make sure the headphone jack is clean and clear of debris and/or damage.

My ipod nano stops the music once the backlight turns off

my iPod nano 6th generation stops the music once the backlight turns off, how do i fix it?

Your nano is pausing playback when the screen goes dark (Either when it goes dark on its own or when you click the sleep/wake button). The reason for this is that it is not detecting your headset. You may be able to hear music, but the headset jack is not inserted enough for the nano to detect that it is there (or something is blocking the connection). Here are your three options:
Insert the headset jack harder. Most folks find that this solves their problem. If you can see ANY of the silver of the plug when it is inserted, it is NOT fully inserted. You should feel and hear a click" when it is fully inserted.
Clean out the crud in the headset port. If you have tried #1 and it just won't insert all the way, it is likely that you have crud in your headset jack. Shine a light in there. The entire inside of the jack is white, so if it looks dark down at the bottom, there is probably crud down there. You can try blowing it out or using canned air. Just understand that shoving anything else in there to clean it out will be taking your warranty into your own hands! However, I have cleaned mine out using whatever was handy and small enough to fit in there and so far so good. Your results may vary!
Take it to the Apple store. If you have really tried with 1 and 2 and it is still happening, then there might just be something up with your headset port or your headset jack. If it is the headset jack, you can look closely at that and be pretty sure if that is the problem. Try another headset to make sure. If you have worked all the way through to this point and it is still happening, it is time to take it to the Apple store.

Macbook unibody backlight turns off while booting to 10.7

This is a customer unit, so I do not want to do anything to their hard drive without being completely sure that is the issue.
When attempting to boot a Macbook 13-inch Late 2009 (polycarbonate Unibody) to 10.7 on an internal or 10.7.5 on an external hard drive connected via USB the unit boots through the gray screen with Apple logo and spinning gear properly but loses backlight at the point I would normally get the blue screen. It does this in Safe Boot as well.
I am able to boot to an external USB drive running 10.6.8 without issue.
I am also able to boot to the recovery partitions of the 10.7 drives with no video issues.
When trying to boot to the regular partitions, the backlight turns off where the screen should be going to blue just before the login prompt or desktop depending on the account setup.
Has anyone else had this trouble?

i have the exact same issue i still have a applecare so i brought it to my local repair shop(filled with greedy lebanese men who ****** me over when i bought my macbook in march of 2009 2 days before the new macbook pros came out they were like nope u paid $600 extra for an inferior product but we're not going to refund you because u can **** yourself even though i called apple and they said they could replace it with the new one if i bought it from them but since i bought it from one of their repair centers and not an actual apple store im ******) anyway I brought it in several times and they told me that they first replaced the logic board then the they replaced the screen(which was obvious) and they told me they replaced the ram( they did and they downgraded my ram in the process i went in with 4gb of DDR3 @ 1333 mhz and came out with 2 GB of DDR3 @ 667 mhz thanks you lebanese cocksuckers) i made them fix their ram switch which they weren't too happy about and immediately lied to me and told me that there was no problem and that they didn't put different ram in. Then they told me that there was nothing they could do and they couldn't even find the problem i was discribing. since it happens randomly everytime i brought it in to show them how it wouldn't start up or it would turn off randomly it miraciously worked fine. ******* apple, I'm going to call them and demand that they prepare a complete replacement which the lebanese guy told me was impossible, they would not replace the whole macbook just because i had a problem. I too upgraded to mountain lion to try and fix the issues, i then reformated my macbook and downgraded to snow leopard and still the issue remains. *** are we supposed to do this is a chronic issue with many many macs and apple hasn't yet come up with a solution to a problem THEY caused.

Verizon galaxy nexus-music skips and static when screen is off..

What i do is download videos using youtube
downloader and convert them into mp3. Then i connect my phone to the laptop with
the usb cable. I open my computer-galaxy nexus-music, and i drag the saved mp3
from my laptop to my phone. When i disconnect the phone,I open the music app and
I listen to my music and it sounds fine when the screen is on. When the screen
is Off the music starts to skip a little and i hear static with or without
headphones. Now i used the same procedure when i load music from my laptop with
other mp3 devices and ipods and the music sounds good when the screen is on or
off with those devices. I downloaded a song from the android market and amazon,
stored it and downloaded to my phone for offline play and both songs stutter or
static when screen is off.

From the beginning, I wasn’t too impressed by the Galaxy Nexus. Why? It’s a Samsung. Would I purchase a Samsung for a basic phone? Sure, but when it comes to “top of the line” smart phones, Samsung wouldn’t be my first, second or even third choice. Now, don’t get me wrong, I contemplating parting with 299.99 to purchase the Nexus. The ics appeal outweigh some of my skepticism.. but before I buy a phone, I sit on review boards, cnet reviews, youtube reviews, etc. etc. In addition, it’s hard to trust a new phone of its kind. All the kinks (clearly) haven’t been ironed out. I, like Rushfan2112 went with the Rezound. And I LOVE it.
But do I think the Nexus is a “poor” phone? Na. Not by a long shot. Does VZW hinder the devices full potential? Of course – but we as Verizon customers should already know this – they proved so with the Iphones. Moreover, I’m a bit confused by the lack of update to the OS as well. This phone was specifically designed and released. It’s not as if we’re waiting for a complete OS change like HTC Rezound, Rhyme, & Motorola Bionic, 4 and Razr customers are. I understand that takes time because the OS has to be modified for each device. But the Nexus started with ICS, the ambiguity in the software updates is ridiculous….

My Airport Time Capsule only works when I turn off and turn on, but I think this may end up with the unit. What can this happening and how to solve?

Time Capsule Airport
Hello to all, good day, sorry my english google, but it is the tool I have at the moment. I'm having trouble with my Time Capsule Airport, I made all the settings according to the manual, but there has been a connection problem with my iMac. When I finish my work I turn off the imac and then again when they return to work and care, it can not connect to Time Capsule Airport, making it impossible to remove the files and make back up by Time Machine only works when I turn off and turn on the Airport Time Capsule , but I think this may end up with the unit. What can this happening and how to solve? Thank you.
Olá a todos, bom dia, desculpe meu inglês google, mas é a ferramenta que tenho no momento. Estou tendo dificuldades com a minha Airport Time Capsule, fiz todas as configurações de acordo com o manual, mas tem existido um problema de conexão com meu iMac. Quando termino meus trabalhos desligo o imac e depois quando retorno pra trabalhar novamente e ligo, ele não se conecta a Airport Time Capsule, impossibilitando retirar os arquivos e fazer o back-up pelo Time Machine, só funciona quando desligo e ligo a Airport Time Capsule, mas acho que isso pode acabar com o aparelho. O que pode esta acontecendo e como resolver? Obrigado.

This is easier to do with pictures perhaps.. since we do not share a common language and machine translation leaves a lot to be desired.
In the airport utility bring up your Time Capsule.
Simply post the screenshots here.
So here is mine.
Click on the Edit button and give us the Internet and Wireless and Network tab..
eg.
Please also make sure you are set to ipv6 in your wireless or ethernet .. whichever is used.. and do tell which.
This is wifi in your computer.
The following are important..
DO not use long names with spaces and non-alphanumeric names.
Use short names, no spaces and pure alphanumeric.
eg TC name. TCgen5
Wireless name TCwifi
Use WPA2 Personal security with 10-20 character pure alphanumeric password.
read apple instructions to help with TM and TC.. they did finally admit it has issues in Mavericks.
OS X Mavericks: Time Machine problems
Mount the TC manually in finder.
AFP://TCgen5.local
When asked for the password .. that is the disk access password and save it in the keychain.
Reset Time Machine

When I turn off my mini, and at other random times, i get a message saying I need to restart my computer

When I turn off my mini, and at other random times, i get a simple message that says I need to restart my computer. any suggestions?

The message to restart your computer, in multiple languages, is a kernel panic. This is usually, but not always, caused by hardware, with memory being the leading cause.
You might want to run the Apple hardware test, which is on the original gray-faced OS X disks that came with the mini. FInd the one that says 'AHT Version x.x' in small print on the label, insert and reboot holding the alt/option key down. Choose the Apple hardware test, and when prompted, choose the extended test. You can also download Rember from http://kelleycomputing.net/rember/ if you want to really test the memory. Set it up and let it run over night.
See this kernel panic FAQs for other ideas: http://www.thexlab.com/faqs/kernelpanics.html

Ever since i downloaded OSX Mountain Lion, Express VPN no longer works properly for me. Even though it says I am connected, webpages refuse to load. However, everything works fine when its turned off. I cannot go on many websites without the VPN.

Ever since i downloaded OSX Mountain Lion, Express VPN no longer works properly for me. Even though it says I am connected, webpages refuse to load. However, connection speed is fine when its turned off. I cannot go on many websites without the VPN. My current location is Shanghai, China. OSX Mountain was installed this morning and everything worked fine until then. Is Express VPN not supported? What do i need to do in order to get it working again on my Macbook Pro (early 2011). I want to be able to go on websites such as Youtube, Facebook, Twitter, ect...

Hi,
I am having the same issue listed above on my new Mac Mini i just bought, I also contacted Express VPN support and got the same instructions with exception of the command to run in the utilities terminal. I tried the steps listed, and both commands (posted here, and sent to me directly by Express VPN support), and still unable to connect on my Mac Mini running OS X 10.8.2, but I am able to connect on my iPad and my MacBook which is running Mac OS X 10.6.8. Usually Express VPN is spot on with their customer support, but this is taking longer to get resolved. Here is the steps sent to me
Try doing the following to see if the problem gets resolved:
Please follow the instructions here: https://www.expressvpn.org/support/setting_dns_servers_mac_os
(should still be the same for Lion) and then add the following DNS servers: 8.8.8.8 & 208.67.222.220. After adding the DNS servers, please do the following steps as well:
Note: If you're connecting to your ISP via a PPPoE connection, then set the DNS servers on the PPPoE connection itself and then restart your computer for the DNS settings to take effect.
1. Click on Applications
2. Click on Utilities
3. Click on Terminal
4. Type the following command (without the quotes): "sudo killall -HUP mDNSResponder"
5. Press enter and then try reconnecting to the VPN.
If you're still unable to connect, please send us in the latest log files.
Hope this helps. Let us know how it goes.

HT204406 Although I have subscribed to ITunes Match my ipad setting only states under Settings Music, to subscribe to iTunes Match. But i have subscribed. i have played the downloaded songs from the icloud, too, and when i turn off my computer, the ipad m

I subscribed to Music Match with iTunes and yet my ipad settings for Music only still has the option to subscribe, and therefore I cannot click on an option to Activagte iTunes Match, since it is not there. I have all the right number of songs from the icloud showing up in my ipad now, and I have played a few, but when I tried to turn off the computer, it showed a field stating that my ipad music would stop playing too, and it did. I thought this might have something to do with homesharing, but this I thought was something separate from iCloud.
There is something wrong, but I don't understand what. It has just synced, but the problem persists.

Home sharing is separate from iTunes Match. Sounds like you were playing music using home sharing, which turned off when you turned off your computer.
Open iTunes on your computer and go to the Store menu. Confirm that there is a setting called Turn Off iTunes Match. That will confirm that iTunes Match is enabled on your computer. Then check to see what Apple ID you subscribed to iTunes Match with. It will be the ID in Store>View Account (in parentheses).
On your iPad, confirm that you are signed in with this same ID in Settings>iTunes & App Store (at the top). If so, you should see an iTunes Match setting listed with an on/off slider. Slide it on to enable iTunes Match on your iPad.

Documents uploaded to icloud disappear when I turn off the IPAD

documents uploaded to icloud disappear when I turn off the IPAD,I can see the documents only when icloud is open on the PC

When you turn off any device, it will disconnect from the internet. My sense is that you're not quite explaining what's happening. Do you mean that when you turn it back on again it doesn't automatically reconnect? Do you mean the if it just goes to sleep (as opposed to being powered off) that it switches from WiFi to cellular? Or are you saying that you think that when you turn off the iPad, the router disconnects?
If you're trying to say that the iPad disconnects from WiFi when asleep and switches to cellular, the solution is to keep it plugged into a power source.
Best of luck.

Charge your iPhone whenever you want to. There are no limitations on when or the duration of charge. Normally it will charge in 3-4 hours with the wall charger, longer if you use a computer USB port.
