To everyone with IOS6 Sound related issues & Others

If you are facing a problem of not having any system sounds, notification sounds, no calls or other software sound related issues I'd suggest you read below it's a stupidly simple fix and it should solve most software issues after an immediate iOS6 update:
After updating unplug the phone from your computer and leave the phone alone for 5-10 minutes, if you still have problems: reboot, wait a few minutes and all sound related problems should be fixed.
When I updated to iOS 6 I had lost my system sounds, so I unplugged from the computer, rebooted the phone and still no go. I decided to just let the system "settle in" for a bit, let it lock and when I unlocked after 5-10 minutes sounds were back and everythings up and running again.

Well, to break it down. After my sounds finally came back (2nd time losing them) last night I decided to restore the phone in itunes. I did it twice. First time I backed up my data. Second time I restored it as a factory iPhone. Both times guess what NO SOUNDS! I also realized that last night I had lost my sounds after charging my phone and unplugging it from the data cord. I still have ringtones (when someone calls), but text messages, emails, and any other alert tones do not work. I cannot turn the volume up or down with the side buttons and also music does not play. It doesn't even have a slide bar at the bottom.
I am on the phone with apple care now. They seem to not be aware of the problem at all.
While I was on the phone with them my sounds ended up coming back, imagine that. Hopefully every time I charge my phone I am not going to have this issue.

  • Sound input issues.  Not related to Soundflower or Balance issues

    So.  With the sound flower issues fixed.  And my balance knobs in place for my stereo speakers.  I have opened up a new song I have been writing.  Again the AVIGrandpiano app was the track I was recording on.  Like my previous post from last week the input on the new music was very faint and not at all matching the input of the previous recorded music.  (See Screenshot on earlier posts) 
    I am at a loss as to where to begin to fix this.

  • Tactics 3D: Issues with scratchy sound, other questions

    Hai Guyz,
    I have recently purchased a Tactics Rage 3D headset. It was on clearance at the poast exchange marked down from $80 to $40. I would like to say that first of all I love the software that comes with it. Anyway, I have managed to install the headset with no issues. However, oftentimes the sound will be crystal clear for several minutes, then suddenly becomes scratchy. Oftentimes, closing the program I am using (E.G. Second Life, Itunes, Firefox, Skype) remedies this. However, when I am playing a Game that takes a long time to load, closing and relaunching the program is a bit of a hassle. I have posted to the Creative Facebook wall, and a representative suggesting installing the headset on another computer, as well as re-installing the drivers and firmware. I am unable to use another PC as I only own one laptop, and am uncomfortable installing things on a friend's computer. Anyway, here are my questions below:
    1.) Is there a solution to the issues I have had with scratchy sound? The box advertises the product as a gaming headset, but gaming is where I have the most issues(As closing most other programs takes only a few seconds).
    2.) Is there a smaller dongle available? The bluetooth Dongle for my wireless mouse is small and unobtrusive enough that I can simply leave it in. However, the one that came with the headset makes it difficult to use my mouse, as well as pack my laptop(since I have to take the dongle out).
    3.) I have noticed while browsing there forums that there is a v1 and v2 of the tactics Rage. How am I able to tell which version that I own?
    4.) I wish to give customer feedback on both the pros and cons of this headset, where would be the most appropriate place to do so?

    Hi Sinophile,
    From what I know, there is no smaller dongle available.
    For V2.0 of the headset, V2.0 is written on the packaging box. I have checked the firmware download page for both Tactic3D Rage Wireless and Tactic3D Rage Wireless V2.0 it seems that they are having the same firmware. And the firmware upgrade will make the headset support USB audio on PlayStation 4.
    The firmware update will upgrade the Tactic3D Rage Wireless to have the same feature as Tactic3D Rage Wireless V2.0
    However, it is not recommended to upgrade the headset's firmware as there are many threads in this forum that says upgrading the firmware bricks the USB dongle and their headset do not work anymore.
    You may want to try to give your feedback by clicking 'Contact Us'>'Email Us' on Creative's website.

  • Issues with loud sound settings over headphones.

    My Ipad 2 has been having some issues with the sound settings when I put the volume up loud. When I go past a certain level there is a "popping" sound and the volume cuts out all together.  If I reduce the volume this popping sound happens again and the volume comes back on.
    This only happens through the headphones, and doesn't happen with the external speaker.
    Have I stuffed up one of the settings? Is this an OS update issue or do I need to replace the headphone jack?
    I have reset all the settings, but haven't done a complete restore yet.
    Thanks

                      Hi , I suhail khan from india and i am user of iMac system 10,1.These days i am facing the sound enabling issue with my iMac system I am not able to hear sound in my iMac system.So kindly suggest me how to enable sound in my iMac . Please no the needful.

    Take each of the following steps that you haven't already tried.
    1. If you've recently plugged anything into the audio-out (headphone) port, plug and unplug it a couple of times.
    2. From the menu bar, select
     ▹ System Preferences ▹ Sound ▹ Output
    Check the settings. The internal speakers should be selected as the output device, the Mute box should not be checked, and the volume slider should be at least halfway to the right.
    3. Look inside the headphone port. If a red light is coming from the port, the internal switch is stuck in the position for digital output. You may be able to free it by inserting and removing a headphone mini-stereo jack of the proper size.Inserting any kind of tool in the port may cause damage that won't be covered by your warranty.
    4. Boot in safe mode by holding down the shift key at the startup chime. It will take much longer than usual. You don't have to log in; just reboot as usual (without holding any keys) when the login screen appears. (Note: If FileVault is enabled under OS X 10.7 or later, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t boot in safe mode.)
    5. Reset the NVRAM.
    6. Reset the SMC.
    7. Reinstall OS X after backing up all data as a precaution. You won't need your backup unless something goes wrong.
    8. Make a "Genius" appointment at an Apple Store.
    Back up all data on the internal drive(s) before you hand over your computer to anyone. If privacy is a concern, erase the data partition(s) with the option to write zeros* (do this only if you have at least two complete, independent backups, and you know how to restore to bare metal from any of them.) Don’t erase the recovery partition, if present.
    *An SSD doesn't need to be zeroed.

    But! I noticed something. I can't add my soundcard as my default one, but I can sure see it in alsamixer if I pick it.
    I have been trying what the wiki been saying, either do it by kernel or use of the ~/.asoundrc which doesnt work as I get the message that the file is either to old or corrupted.

    Tried to remove pulseaudio by sudo pacman -Rd pulseaudio.. but it has so many depencies so it doesnt let me.
    Any Ideas?
    wrong approach - if using gnome-shell it does need to be there.
    I not only have an idea ~ but i do know how to fix your problem (i just need to read up, because off-hand i can't tell you how to do it).
    i ALWAYS disable PA - because it is crap!   i also think it is stupid that gnome -developers decided to make it a static dependency, when there are so many issues with it.
    i'll get back to you in a little while, okay?  (sometime later tonight, i just got home from work and need to relax / eat / etc..

  • Any known issues with Essbase 64 bit and other components as 32 bit

    Hi Everyone,
    Are there any known issues with 64 bit Essbase and other components (Planning, EAS, Provider services, EAS, Workspace and Reporting) in 32 bit?
    Version is EPM 11.1.1.3
    The reason for choosing ESSBASE 64 bit is of course performance. We decided to stick to 32 bit for the web applications due to some known issues and bitter experiences in past in this version with 64 bit web deployments.
    OS is Windows 2003 Server (64 bit for the ESSBASE server and 32/64 bit for the application server)
    Thanks,
    Sayantan

    Hyperion 32-bit Web Apps are fully compatible with Essbase 64-bit. Same with 32-bit Essbase client.

  • HT6030 Sound output issue with Mavericks

    There is a sound output issue with Mavericks and Firewire800 Audio devices. I am using a MIO 2882 but now people are having issues with other devices as well. Is this something that will be addressed in an update? If not I will need to downgrade my OS.

    maybe the adapter went bad.....fast. try getting one thats made by sony. or apple. i have had bad luck with some cheap products i bought.
    or maybe thats the brand you have ad luck with. i remember when i use to get some quantom fireball drives, and they just died on me the next week. im down to two and keeping a good eye on them. especially fujitsu. the only ones i have GREAT LUCK with are Seagate and Western digitals drives.

  • Has Apple addressed poor sound quality issues with new 160GB iPod classic?

    I just bought a new 160GB iPod classic, replacing a perfectly good 80GB iPod Video (5.5), thinking that the newer one would be superior to my 3 year old model. I discovered that the sound of the new unit was flat and muddy compared to the older model. I found that the 5th gen iPod video was more "spacial", if that's an appropriate word to use; the bass was more present and more clearly defined, as was the rest of the sonic spectrum. I searched several forums to research this issue and while there were numerous references to this issue, all of the posts I found referred to the original iPod classics (80GB and 160GB) and not the later 120GB classics nor the new 160GB classics like the one I bought. Has Apple done anything to address this issue since the first classics were released or are the new ones still suffering from the same sound quality issues as the original classics?

    Based on your observations here, they apparently have not changed the sound quality since the original 160GB classic. I noticed a clear narrowing of the sound stage (ambiance) between the 5.5G 80Gb and my 6G 160GB. You're describing the same characteristic. I don't own the newest 160GB version and came here today to see if it might have improved the sound quality back to the 5.5 spaciousness. Note that the 5.5G has a higher signal to noise ratio than the 6G, making it difficult for me to enjoy it through efficient balanced armature in ear monitors like the Shure SE530s or Ulimate Ears Triple.Fi 10s.

  • I'm having trouble with my sound up and sound down keys. They're doing other functions. This is only a new thing.

    I'm having trouble with my 'sound up' and 'sound down' keys. They're doing other functions. This is only a relatively new thing.

    You didn't mention what those "other functions" were.  That might help!
    First thing to check is System Preferences > Keyboard > Keyboard tab - make sure "Use all F1, F2, etc. keys as standard function keys" is un-checked.  Hopefully that still works in Mountain Lion.

  • Trouble with alert sounds since updating to ios6!

    updated to ios 6 on my iphone 4 and my text alerts became intermittant. Figured it was because my phone was getting old but the same exact thing is happening with my new iphone 5. Any suggestions on how to fix? I've checked settings and my contacts a million times to see if anything changed there and it hasn't. Sometimes the sounds work. Other times it doesn't. Help!  Thanks!

    I had my blue tooth working perfectly and connecting to my automobile BT in lexus and was making phone calls and streaming my music to the speakers through it with no problems until I updated to 6.0.1 then everything malfunctioning. I cannot even get my bluetooth to turn on on the phone.  It constantly goes around in circle trying to access blue tooth now. Then connects erratically when it does, drops calls, comes on and off.
    I am so frustrated I could croak ! I have reset my settings, restored my phone, turned phone on and off.....I am at a loss !

  • Framemaker 7.0 consistently crashes when saving files as .rtf (and other related issues)

    Thank you first of all for any help from anyone.  Secondly, I apologize for any of my FrameMaker naivety, I am just a beginner with it really.
    I am having a problem when saving out FrameMaker files to rtf format (for eventual conversion to word -- some people just want parts of book in word so they can mess around with it).  Frequently, framemaker crashes and gives me a message such as this below. What can I do to get our documents into word format?
    secondly, when i get them into word format, sometimes I have this problem when paragraph marks are turned on in word -- people that have recieved the word files I send them have complained about this and unfortunately they are people I cannot tell to just turn off the paragraph marks.  Why is that repeated text inserted into the line? It should just say "Removing Constraints" (with no parenthesis marks).  Some of our chapters are very long and manually removing this is not applicable.
    thanks for any help!

    About the {XE xxx} fields in your output file, that's the way FM converts index markers and their content when outputting RTF; FM automatically turns on the display of these fields. I believe it's the same with cross-references and all other kinds of marker output.
    With MIF2Go you can specify what to do with each different type of marker, so you could choose to delete them completely if you wanted, or else to retain the markers but convert them to the correct index references in RTF. Here's the section in the MIF2Go manual about the markers:
    http://www.omsys.com/dcl/usergd/rtfref_0120_5141_generating_an_index_in_word.htm#Xz105x557 827
    http://www.omsys.com/dcl/usergd/rtfref_0119_514_modifying_word_output_after_conversion.htm
    I'm not sure whether MIF2Go has a way to control the actual display of these fields in the RTF or not, or whether that would need to be done by a vbscript after the RTF has been generated.

  • I have an Iad2 and ever since ios6-there are issues.I get occasional lock-ups and have to reboot. The WSJ app freezes when running their videos to the end. The only work-around is to stop the video before it's over. Worse than windows me !!!!!

    My Ipad2 worked perfectly before ios6 upgrade. It now freezes occasionally and I have to reboot to get it to work. Also the WSJ app will now freeze if I try and run one of their videos that is imbedded in the article. My only work-around is to stop (press done) before the end of the video or I have to do a total reboot. The problems remind me of Windows ME . Will Apple resolve these issues or become more like Microsoft. Hopefully there will be a restore button in the future like Microsoft was forced to do because a lot of upgrades are just terrible. Am I crazy or are there other people having the same issues with ios6, or could this just be a coincidence and my ipad2 is starting to fail just when ios6 arrives ?

    I know this will not help but, the bluetooth headset I purchased for my wife works great and it pairs with our car and our sound bar in the livingroom (Motorola Droid Razr) 98.72.16.XT912.Verizon.en.US
    However I did not upgrade over the air but from a android web site and placed it on my external sd card. I believe this made the difference in why we had no issues and upgraded functionality has been great.
    Please note when I mention these bluetooth devices I mean the Razr connects with no problems.
    It also had no internet issues and none of the problems others have complained about in other threads.
    unfortunately when you say thousands have these issues I cannot say that is accurate. The hope is when large numbers of owners have updated to the Jelly Bean and are complaining inmase then Motorola will issue a patch to verizon to get out to the affected users.
    Of course now that Google owns Motorola Mobility and has laid off loads of workers it may never issue an os patch.
