Strange alert noise tx2

I hve a tx2 touchsmart. It is new to me and im still figuring it out. It keeps making this strange alerting noise every 10 seconds. It is like a small honk (if you will) sort of an echo sound. Like it is arning me of somw\ething. Just not sure what. Can anyone help??

Mine makes funny beeps quite often, as well, at seemingly random times.
I can't see that I'm doing anything wrong or strange, so I just ignore it.
But, every 10 seconds seems like there's something else going on.

Strange "twanging" noise every few minutes

My iPad is making a strange "twanging" noise every few minutes and I can't seem to find the reason for this. It is driving me and my whole family crazy. What can be causing this? I tthought it was some sort of alert, but can't find the source.

It's almost certainly an app alert. Go to Settings, Notifications and see which apps are yelling at you. ry switching them al to OFF, then re-enabling them one by one

Strange "tang" noise that seems to come from nowere very annoying anyone know whats the source

strange "tang" noise that seems to come from nowere very annoying anyone know whats the source

I feel your pain, so many sales stuff to work through to get to the good stuff
here's my very simplistic interpretation
Cloud control = anything with a "c" behind the name - eg 12c
Grid control = anything with a "g" behind the name - eg 11g
oracle enterprise manager is the product that comes from Oracle to manage the database layer from the operating system upwards , (eg software components) - latest version 12c something
ops center, or oracle enterprise manager ops center is a product that came from Sun to manage the OS, hardware level and down (eg hardware components) - latest version 11g update 1 release 3
currently these two products, OEM and OEM Ops Center are 2 seperate installs
I also believe that Oracle only make roadmaps available on request
The only sites where you are going to get any official info is from the oracle websites

MacBook Pro w/RD: Strange whining noise!!!

My Mac recently got serviced at an Apple Store - and there seems to be a problem. When I power it on, and while I am using it, there seems to be a strange whining noise coming from the upper-right hand side (when looking down at the keyboard). Near the Power Button! It's been drifting in and out of a local Authorized Repair Place, and the problem still is not evident.
It wasn't occurring before I brought it to the Genius Bar. I don't have a pentalobular screwdriver. They had gone into the machine and reset the EFI password at the Genius Bar. All help appreciated! Thanks!
I have a desperate project that needs to be completed before the 25th. I need this back (my machine) before January 22nd, 2013. Please keep that in mind when suggesting repair options.

Isit just when it starts up ? What about when entering a disc into the drive, do you get a almost crunching sound? If so, most definitely the optical drive. Mine is the same, nothing to worry about.. I haven't had any problems so far, sometimes when burning a disc I get errors, but nothing major.

That model has a known fault in that Nvidea sold Apple and other computer manufacturers bad GeForce 8600M GT video chipsets that failed eventually. Apple had a program that repaired this at no cost to the owner but it expired almost two years ago.
If this is what happened to yours, and the symptoms suggest so, the only proper fix is a new logic board and I amd pretty sure Apple no longer has parts. When my Late 2007 MBP (same faulty chipset) failed, Apple told me there were no more parts and they could not even do the fixed-rate "depot repair" on mine even though I was willing to pay the ~US$300 for the repair.
The early 2008 MBP is on the vintage and obsolete list:
Vintage and obsolete products - Apple Support
The fact that yours is shown as "vintage" means Apple will not work on it but an independent service provider MAY be able to get the parts from Apple. However, as so may new logic boards were required to satisfy the repair program, from a practical standpoint boards for these are hard to find.

Strange clicking noise

Hello all. I hope someone can help me with this question.
I have a 30g ipod that is less than a year old. I believe I purchased it last October. It has started to make a strange clicking noise when I play music.
I tend to use it alot since I can listen to music at work. I would say that it runs for about 9 hours a day. Most of the time when it is in use, it is hooked up directly to the speakers and the battery charger.
Has anyone else had this happen? Does anyone know what the problem is?
Thanks for your help.

Hi Dakota!
First, have you tried resetting your iPod? To reset an iPod:
First, toggle your iPod's "Hold" switch back and forth a couple of times (leave it on the white side of the switch).
Then, press and hold the Menu and Select (center) buttons together for 5-10 seconds.
You might need to attempts this quite a few times. Also, if you connect your iPod to your computer or another power source while resetting, that can be more effective.
If resetting doesn't help, then I would suggest that you try restoring your iPod in iTunes.
For info on restoring, see this article about it:

Only want alert noise for one person

Okay so I have alot of people I have to have on my friends list and they try to message me alot and yeah I dont care but the noise gets on my nerves so I have it turned off,but the thing is when I turn the noise off I cant hear when the one person I WANT to message me messages me so I end up not knowing they message.
Is there a way I can make it where it only makes a alert sound for the one person and not everyone else? I dont want to block notifications from the other people I just dont want to hear the alert noise from them but I still want to see skype glow orange meaning they messaged. just not the noise.
Is there a way I can do this? I remember I used to be able to do this on hotmail or atleast have a specific sound meaning its her.

Did you change the volume setting as well?
It should be something like this for the settings:
Out of Holster: Tone
Ring Tone: (choose one)
Volume: (set to anything other than mute)
Make sure to save the settings.
The "in holster" settings are for when the phone is inside the leather holster usually provided with the phone. The holster has a magnet that, when it is detected by the phone, powers down the screen and locks the keyboard to save battery life.
Do a battery pull once you are done:
1. Remove the battery while phone is turned on
2. Wait a few seconds before inserting it again
3. Allow the long boot up process to finish (takes a few minutes usually)
This clears most software issues that occur on blackberries from time to time. You could also use Quickpull, a free app that simulates a battery pull without physically removing the battery: http://software.crackberry.com/product.asp?id=27660
A battery pull reclaims memory lost during application usage and clears minor software errors that creep in over time. The blackberry runs an OS just like your PC runs windows and the battery pull is the equivalent of a reboot/restart on your computer.

IPhone only makes alert noises when screen is lit up

For some reason my iPhone now only makes alert noises for new emails, texts, etc if the screen is lit up. If the screen is black, it doesn't make any noise so i never know i got an email or text. Is there a setting for this somewhere?

Go into Settings > Notification Center and tap each app to see if "Show on lock screen" is set to ON (green side showing)

Why is there a strange diagonal "noise" appearing on my footage ?

hi
i've made a rough cut of a piece i am working on and discovered a strange diagonal noise effect on the footage. its very faint but noticable. it appears mostly on "flat" or "even" areas like sky or waters.
here are the details of the project-
shot on DV with panasonic DVX100 at 25 P 4:3 (i use pal system)
captured with sony DSR-11 set to DV PAL (default)
edited in a DV PAL sequence (default - 25 lower field).
streatched to 16X9 (nested on a 16X9 sequence and changed aspect ration to 1). turned into black and white using a monochrome filter (cant remember the name...)
exported with compressor CBR 7.4 bits, Proggressive, anamorphic, motion-best. Automatic.
built on DVD SP 3, 16X9
burned on toast 7.
is there something wrong with my workflow ?
can you think of a reason for those strange faint diagonals pulsing ? any suggestion ? maybe its my Tv (although i've never experience that before)?
i appriciate your replies and enjoy learing from you fellas...
thanx

My guess is that the noise showing up in the stretching and then is magnified in the monochrome step.
To check if my hunch is right, take your original 4:3 footage and run it through the Monochrome filter and then export a 10 second bit of the most offensive noise. If it doesn't go away there, then it is porbably the Filter that is creating the noise. Try a different method of making it black and white.
If it does go away, then the problem was brought in by the Stretching. To fix it, rather than stretching your footage, crop it instead. Either use a 16:9 Matt in your 4:3 space, or pull the 4:3 into the 16:9 and just enlarge it until it fits your space (you will loose a little off the top and bottom).
Hope that helps!

Strange Alert Sound

For a couple of days now I have had the following problem: Every 30 seconds or so, the system gives off a strange alert sound, one day it's something like a soft "CLONK", the next day it sound like "PHEW" and then back to "CLONK" etc. (the 2 sounds are different from the built-in sound effects).
I suspect that it has something to do with my internet connection, but all the cables are perfectly connected and all programs (Safari, E-Mail etc. ) work normally.
What could this be?
Thanks for any help!

Hello
I found the culprit !
As I had mentioned, the alerts were NO APPLE sounds. They came from my MS Entourage, where I had recently clicked the "sound when no message" box. So every minute or so, when Entourage checked if I had new E-mail messages and there were none, I got this CLONK or PEW sound !
Well, thanks anyway for your tips - they are always useful one way or the other!

Strange popping noise when reversing

Hello,
I have been using iMovie HD 6 for quite a while now (I downgraded), and the reverse feature has been working fine until now. When I reverse the clip (w/o changing the fast/slow marker), a strange popping noise replaces the usually reversed audio. I tried it on an iMac G4 with iMovie 4, and it created the same strange effect. (As an alternative, I've been using +J and Wavepad for the reverse audio) Can anyone fix this?

Alert noise when releasing keys of controller?

As I am new to MIDI/MS I can't figure out why I am getting an alert noise every time I release a key on my axiom 61. I think it has something to do with MIDI setup as I just recently reconfigured my settings in Audio MIDI setup, but I can't find what is causing this. Basically, If I play any key of the controller, as soon as its released I get what sounds to me like a ping/cowbell, same pitch on every key. What am I missing here? Thanks for your help.

well I figured it out and feel like an idiot. I had "test setup" on in the Audio Midi Setup, and didn't realize thats what was making the sound.

Strange whirring noise

My Macbook has developed a soft strange whirring noise, that sort of sounds like the harddrive is scraping up against something while spinning. It is not constant, but lasts about a second, and occurs every 5-10 seconds. It's only annoying when the room is silent, but i'm concerned that it could lead to a worse problem in the future, and if it's a problem with my harddrive, I would not like to lose my data on it.

Did you find out what was causing the noise? I'm having the same problem. Also, out of interest, how old is your machine?

Alert noise at startup

A friend is trying out (may purchase from MUG member) an iMac G4 that makes an alert noise when she turns the computer on and we're not sure what it is. It goes something like this...bonk bonk bonk.
It does finally startup and works fine, but not to sure if she wants to buy it in fear that it may be a costly fix down the road.
You guys are great and I'm sure someone will have the answer.
Thanks in advance!

oops, wrong discussion area. sorry!
