THERE SEEMS TO BE A LOUD KNOCKING SOUND UNDER NEATH MY KEYBOARD SOUNDS LIKE SOMETHING IS CLICKING AGAINST SOMETHING ELSE HELP ME PLEASE
Before you send it for repair, try different RAM chips or HDD in it, if you have any sitting around.
I've had heat issues on my Dell @ work whose RAM stick went bad and new stick fixed it.
In any case, Apple technicians @ the store are helpful and they run diagnostics (for cheap) before doing any repairs, so you may have them do the diagnostics and repair it yourself afterwards, if it truns out to be just a bad RAM or HDD.
I hope you get out of it cheap.

I bough a used Macbook Pro mid 2009 that came with OS 10.8.9 it didn't have a backup restore disk with S/N W8******66D
When trying to view some youtube videos; a window would pop up saying "it needs adobe flash player is required for video play back get the latest flash player" but after downloading the file and during installation would have errors and will not installed.....tried to reboot and install again.....but still the same.
The othe thing I had noticed is when using a good Bose headset with mic the sound output would noticed the headset and then switch from headset to Internal speekers and headset.....thinking that there might be something wrong with the plug in port of the computer or the headset.....the headset works with no issues on my iPad so there must be something wrong with the computer.....tried to move the plugin around the port but no change....while the headset is plug in can hear a short clicking noise and the sound would get lost and back again......but with nothing plugin to the port there is no issue with the sound or mic.
Thanks for your feed back......it looks like I have two different issues one is a software issue and the outher is a hardware issue
<Edited By Host>The "restore disk" is built into the Mac. See About Recovery.
Need more specifics about what error messages you got while installing Adobe Flash.
However, you can almost avoid Flash altogether by setting YouTube to play the HTML5 version instead.
Click the Try something new! link at the bottom of the YouTube page.
I don't know about the sound issue. Might be hardware as you think. Try other headphones to check. -

macbook pro mid2012 i7 (here is my e-mail adress : [email protected])You should take it to an Apple store or an AASP (Authorized Apple Service Provider) Carefully inspect the hinge joint and make sure there is no debris that you can see, you can try carefully sliding some sticky tape thru the joint to clear any loose stuff out. But this sounds like there might be more going on here, and the hinge is something that you do not want to fool with.

Hi, I rented a movie off iTunes but the there is no sound. I've bought and rented previous movies and I've never had any problems with the sound before. Is this some kind of glitch? How can I get my money back?
Hey grossa2,
First, here is a way to report an issue with your purchase:
How to report an issue with your iTunes Store, App Store, Mac App Store, or iBooks Store purchase
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1933
Then, I'd go through this article, which helps troubleshoot a lack of audio playback in iTunes:

I have an iMovie that I created 10 years ago. I found the disk and imported. Everything is there except the sound! I converted in Wondershare to MPV4 but still no sound. There is an audio clip that was imported from an analog video camera. Does anyone know how I can get the audio back?

A small update to this issue....
I have been trawling the forums to find an answer but to no avail...
And... I've tried exporting and bouncing individual stems and the full session, either by muting all bar the stem or soloing the stem.....and still nothing.
Same problems.....everything is audible in audition but nothing plays on playback.
Since the 'prelisten' channel strip is Solo safe this would indicate that you have a track or channel strip soloed somewhere else, out of sight. Are the Mute buttons on your channel strips blinking?

The sound no longer works in my husband's iPad and it keeps shutting itself down. This started today. We checked all the settings and everything looks right. Is there something we might be missing?
Try a reset first: Press and hold both Sleep/Wake and Home buttons until the Apple logo appears.
If the reset doesn't fix it, try a restore:

I have such problem, at iphone 4s connection to itunes there is a synchronization well and after iphone is frozen and the woman explaining the instruction starts to speak (How to unblock how to switch off a sound, etc.). iphone reacts to one team, and the woman tells everything and speaks. I took iphone from a wire, but it didn't react. At attempt to switch off it it is switched off, but deletes all files which only existed on this device. What to do and how to solve this problem?
Try posting in your native language. I can't even figure out what your "problem" is from this.

When I make an outgoing call the recipient cannot hear me very well as though the volume was turned down very low
However when I activate the speakerphone the recipient can hear me loud and clear
Is there a fix for this?
Thanks
TeresaHey Tlabounty,
Thanks for the question. I understand you are experiencing issues with the microphone on your iPhone 5. To troubleshoot this issue, you may find the information in this article helpful:
iPhone: Microphone issues
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts5183
Note that speakerphone and regular calls utilize seperate microphones on the device. It sounds like you have isolated the issue. Furthermore, if you determine that the issue is hardware related, the following resource may help you get started with the service process:

I bought a brand new iPhone 4 as soon as it came out which was 2010 I think. No problems until two weeks ago. I fractured the screen on it so I am slowly losiong some functions like charge, touch screen ability and need to activate my new iPhone but I am having trouble with iTunes showing my full song library. I have 554 plus songs but some that will not update or download,. Two weeks ago is when this all began. I used to have a different apple ID but changed it after a few months for security reasons. Now when I try to observe my itunes library it only shows the most recent songs I have purchased,35. Not all, and there are still songs that it states it can not download because my computer is not authorized, I authorize it and it says it is already authorized. Then it gives me the old apple ID from years ago and I change it back to my new one, but this only causes it to do it over and over. I called apple and they said all kinds of mean things that my son or husband had been using my ID or account, of which is impossible because all purchases have to be password protected and I get warnings if anyone attempts to access. Also, their ID's are not my old one. Their libraries have none of my music. I do not home share but I thought that iTunes says you can use the music for households if you homeshare so I do not know why the person was so abusive but I am frustrated. So, any ideas? I was instructed to install icloud and did and it seems to me to be the culprit so I bought the stupid iCloud sharing manage,$25 yearly so that it automatically downloads your full library but no luck, still only shows the purchases I recently made with my gift card. This was suggested by the apple care expert. Can not update my phone until backed up, can not change phones until updated and backed up.
I know it sounds weird, and that is the reason I posted my question. Because my case is not like all the ones I've found online and it's confusing. I added a screen capture of my itunes with my old iphone (the one that houses my playlists) connected to it.
My playlists "ARE" in my iphone 4s. They are still there even though they do not show up when I plug in to itunes in my computer.
When connecting my phone to itunes on my macbook, the playlists do not appear anywhere in itunes. I have found my connected iphone icon, I have clicked on the arrow next to it and it does pull up the standard lists that come with the iphone/itunes: Music, Movies, TV shows, books. That's it! below that is "Genius" and below "Geniuns" is "PLAYLISTS" but the only playlist of mine that shows there is one that I created several years back titled "90's music" and that one I created it on my computer, not my phone. Under "90's music" there are also other standard playlists that itunes automatically adds.
Does anyone else have this issue or know how to get around this. I am starting to think that I am going to have to recreate these lists on my computer -

Hi i upgraded from lion to mountain lion to day on my mini mac,Since the upgrade i am no longer getting sound through my HDMI cable which was working fine on lion Checked the midi audio settings and system preferences to out on HDMi nothing no sound whats so ever.Any one any ideas?
I use a samsung TV for my monitor via HDMI.Tried all the system Audi setting nothing .Head phone and internal speakers are fine.Similar issue; Audio was working fine on Lion, now not on Mountain Lion. Have a Macbook Pro early 2011 with AMD Radeon HD 6750M, connected by thunderbolt through a Lacie LBD to a mini-displayport to HDMI adapter (n.b. same problem when not going through the LBD) to a Pioneer VSX 521 AV receiver. For me when I go into audio Midi settings all the volume sliders for the displayport device are greyed out and at zero. But when I click 'configure speakers', it's able to send out the test signals to each speaker. Part of the problem could be that I'm not getting the option to put out 6channel sound, only 2 or 8 channel. Since my system is Dolby 5.1, and I only have 6 speakers, I would have expected the 6ch option to be available. But I imagine there's more to it than that. Elsewhere someone has suggested playing with Remote Interactive over HD on an Onkyo device; I'll see if there's something similar on the Pioneer that can be changed. Any other suggestions welcome.

OK, there's been complaining about this for YEARS, and now I have a relative who has extreme hearing loss in one ear (not deaf) and usually compensates by turning up the balance on her speakers/ipod to the left or right side in order to compensate.
Also, as a musician and a guitar teacher, I make teaching audio tracks that have a particular part on the left or the right side only, and which needs to be "muted" by panning to the opposite side, then the student can play to the backing track without that part. Of course, then they can adjust the balance back and check themselves. This is also done with a LOT of jazz teaching exercises, etc...
Apple-PLEASE give us an elegant, easy to get to way of adjusting balance WITHIN ITUNES. Most of us us professional grade equipment and sound interfaces, and care deeply about the quality of sounds we make. we do NOT want to have to keep going into Prefs in order to adjust balance, and a LOT of high end sound interfaces don't allow that anyways anymore.
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE fix this Apple. It should be easy, it should be done in the name of compassion for those with one sided hearing loss if for no other reason, but I've outlined other reasons to do it as well.
AND I'll repeat this for the people who won't read what I wrote---WE DO NOT NEED TO BE TOLD TO "ADJUST IT UNDER PREFERENCES"---that defeats the point of having a simple solution, and it certainly won't work on an ipod.
HELP! You guys can fix this IMMEDIATELY if you will just DO IT! I cannot stress how important it is to the music community as a whole...
Why has this not been done before now? Even the cheapest, sorryest stereo receivers, players, etc., in the world have ALWAYS had a "balance" control along with a "bass" and "treble" even at their simplist. Its PAST time for iTunes to become something better. WAY PAST.
AND AGAIN---DOING IT THROUGH PREFERENCES IS NOT POSSIBLE FOR THOSE OF US USING "REAL" INTERFACES or playing on a iPod, etc...-> Feedback and Suggestions.

I can't get access to the cd that is probably slid past where it is supposed to go. The computer doesn't note it is in there. This happened once before and I used another cd to tap it into place, and then I could eject the cd. It's a library music cd and nothing I've done to eject it, works. The dvd drive is empty to the computer, even though I've tried to trick it by getting it to burn a cd or dvd. It says insert disc. Hope someone knows how to pop it into place or open the thing up to get access to the drive. That cd is due!
power off your machine. hold down your left mouse button. power on your machine. This should eject the cd.
Eject cd
Here is a web page on twelve ways to eject the cd.

You indicate you are running on a g5, but 10.6 doesn't run on on a G5.
On a PowerPC-based Macintosh (but not an Intel-based Macintosh), you may use Open Firmware to eject a CD or DVD disc when normal methods for ejecting it have not succeeded.
Immediately after the startup sound, press and hold the key combination Command-Option-o-f. Enter commands:
