    Are you sure you pushed the jack all the way in?
    If you think they're defective, bring them back for exchange.

  • I turned on my new imac for the first time and it is making a loud fan noise please help

    I just got a new computer and when I turned it on for the first time it started making a loud fan noise. the noise seems like it is coming from the back speaker. and it does not make the noise on sleep mode.

    Connect the iPad to a USB 2.0 port your computer with the cable and iTunes should launch and it will take you through the process step by step.
    I assume that your computer meets the requirements and that you have the latest version of iTunes on your computer.

  • Plugged my headset for the first time into my iphone4 to listen to music and the sound came out thru the phone and not the headset, anyone else have this challenge? Help

    Plugged my headset for the first time into my iphone4 to listen to music and the sound came out of the phone and not out of the headset.  Anyone else experience this problem?  is there a way around it?

    Sorry saker, but if you have not backed up your data anywhere, and you told the computer, in essence to clear the data and restore it with your iPod data, then you are pretty much out of luck....

  • Building a system for the first time

    I recently posted a few weeks back about buying a system from either Dell or HP http://forums.adobe.com/thread/732545?tstart=0.  I quickly learned that those systems were not going to fit my need based on my budget.  So, I decided after researching components that I will build a computer by hand for the first time.  I am still operating on a budget of around $1000, but I'm giving the budget a bit of flexibility so I don't limit my options.  I am a hobbyist who only has experience using Power Director on my laptop, but I had a lot of fun editing for the first time and I want to step up my game.  With the new system, I plan to use adobe premiere cs5 and after effects.  I will capture my video from either an HD Helmet cam or HD flip format is  MPEG-4 AVC/H.264.  So where I need help is selecting the right things to optimize my performance.  The following is a list of items I'm looking with their prices.  Please help me decide what will be right for me.  Open to any combo of suggestions or comments. Thanks!
    Processor
    Intel i7 930 $200 microcenter
    Intel i7 950 $230 microcenter
    I don't know if I want overclock yet, but it sounds like a good idea.  $30 for the upgrade to the i7 950 seems pretty good. ro do I use the money elsewhere?
    Motherboard
    GIGABYTE GA-X58A-UD3R $210
    http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813128423
    Seems like a good mobo. Are there any features that this board lacks that I should look for in another board? Also, newegg offers significant deals on "open box" products.  Is this a good way to go?
    Ram
    I have a few questions for this selection.  I've currently budgeted approximately $250 for ram.  I'm looking at going with 12GB.  I certainly don't have the budget for 24GB, but what about 16GB?
    Do I look for 1333 or 1600?  2GB or 4GB sticks?  Would I be fine if I bought say 2 packs of 6GB ram, both same manufacturer and same type or would I want to buy 1 pack of 12GB?
    GPU
    Nvidia Geforce gtx 460 1GB $220
    Is it worth it to go to the 470? I know it's a better card but being a budget is really worth the upgrade or can I get away with a 460?
    Any recomendations for a 460 as there are many in the same price range?
    Drives
    I see these drives priced in the $55 range which would leave at around $220 for the lot of em
    These are the drives I'm looking at as they are highly recommended on this board:
    SAMSUNG Spinpoint F3
    WD Caviar Black
    Right now, I plan to buy 4 drives.  Do I want 4 of the exact same? or say 1 cavier black for os/ programs and 3 samsung f3 for pagefile/scratch/renders?  Can I also get a brief description of what these are too?  Also, could have a 500gb for os/programs and 1tb for the rest or would it be advisable for 1tb for all? or 500gb for all?
    I don't think I can do a raid setup based on my budget, but I saw this as an option on the thread for storage rules is to use the on-board IHCR or Marvell chip.  I don't know really anything about this, but what would the price be to explore this option?
    Case
    Cooler Master Storm Scout $90
    http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811119196
    I picked this case for a few reasons.  I seem move about every 6 months so the handles on top would be very useful, and it seems to have good cooling.  I know a full size case is recommended, but they seem to be significantly more.
    Cooling
    Noctua NH-U12P SE2 120mm SSO CPU Cooler $75
    Everywhere I look this cooler seems to get great reviews.  I figure it could be a good idea to get a good cooler if I get a mid-tower case.
    The only other option I can think of for case/cooling is to combine the budgeted price for both and look at different options like a full size case with a less quality cooler. Is this a better option
    PSU
    Looking into an 850 W power supply.  I figure to budget $80 towards as I've seen a few in that range
    http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817517003
    so would something like this work?
    Final Thoughts
    So, when you add it all up its about $1350.  First question, how does this look overall?  Nothing I've chosen is obviously overkill, but is there anything I can afford to go cheaper on? or anything I should invest more into?
    Thanks again to everyone for the help.  The resources, info and people on this forum have just been awesome.

    Seems like we are planning very similar PCs.  My build is going to be for: amateur video editing including animation mainly with CS5, application design and coding mainly with MS Visual Studio 2008, HTPC (until I build a cheap dedicated unit for the TV), general family computing.  I am new to this stuff, but can at least share some pricing and my decision making process so far.
    Here is what I have selected so far regarding the parts:
    MotherBoard: Gigabyte GA-X58A-UD3R x58
    Seems like one of the lower cost x58 MBs and has some decent reviews.  Wait for a sale, you should be able to find this for around $180.00.  That is how much I got it for from New Egg (straight up with savings code no rebate), should be arriving on my doorstep tomorrow.  Also, I think Fry's has it now for $170.00 in store, but that includes a $20.00 rebate and tax. 
    PowerSupply: Corsair TX650W
    Some might think this is on the low side.  On the other hand, I have gotten other conflicting advice, stating that many people overestimate their actual power needs.  So who knows.  I have read that a PSU works more efficient when it is matched to the power needs - meaning that a 1000w PSU that is generally seeing 200w usage might not be so efficient.  Anyway, I got the PSU for $50.00 from New Egg (with rebate), and it has a good reputation, so we will see how it goes.
    Graphics Card: GIGABYTE GV-N460OC-1GI GeForce GTX 460 (Fermi) 1GB 256-bit GDDR5
    I was planning on a lower cost card, but then noticed this card for sale over the weekend for $178.00 (with rebate), so I ordered one.  I have read the GTX460 has reasonable power requirements, and can be made to take advantage of CUDA/Mercury with CS5 (although haven't done much research into that).  This particular version based on reviews, seems fairly quite with the twin fans. It's possible I overspent a bit on this card considering my needs, time will tell.
    Here is what I am planning to purchase:
    CPU: i7 930
    I am fortunate to live near a Fry's and MicroCenter ($200.00).  From reading the forum, seems like this is generally the lowest CPU folks go in terms of building an editing machine.  I understand the argument that for only $30.00 more, one can upgrade to the i7 950.  On the other hand, that argument could be made for many of the components, and then before you know it, a little extra here and there, and the budget is shot:)  So I am planning to draw the line at the 930.
    Here are my undecided’s:
    Memory
    I am up in the air between 6or12gig/module compatibility/cost.  But one thing for you to keep in mind, is the official memory certified for the motherboard you select.  For the Gigabyte motherboard, I missed out on a recent RAM deal, because the RAM was not officially certified for the board.  Some people tell me this is important, while others say "RAM is RAM" and no big deal.  Something to consider.
    HardDrives
    Same as you, considering the Samsung Spinpoint F3.  Good prices now at MicroCenter on the 16MB cache models in 500 and 1TB sizes.  I just don't know if larger cache sizes are important or not, since they are also offered in 32MB and higher.
    Anyway, good luck with your build and hope it works well.

    How to restart
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button on the top of your device until the red slider appears. Then drag the slider to turn your device completely off.
    After the device turns off, press and hold the Sleep/Wake button again until you see the Apple logo.
    How to reset
    You should reset your device as a last resort and only if you can't restart it.
    To reset, press and hold both the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons for at least 10 seconds, until you see the Apple logo.
    Thank you for contributing to Apple Support Communities,

  • Lost photos after syncing iphone 4 for the first time

    I just connected my iphone4 to my pc for the first time and now my pictures are all gone (on both computer and phone). Any way to get them back?

    Sounds like you performed a sync to an empty Outlook, correct? You never want to sync to an empty application. Doing so will erase the data on your phone. Before you do anything else, put one unique contact, calendar & note entry in Outlook.
    As to restoring your lost data, the key question is have you performed a sync since the sync that erased your data? If not, restoring from backup will restore the data. If you have synced since that initial sync, your data is gone. So, if you have not synced, do this: First disable auto-sync in iTunes>Preferences>Devices(under the edit menu if using Windows). Connect your phone, right-click in the device pane & select "Reset Warnings". Right-click again and select "Restore from Backup". If prompted to create another backup, decline. When the restore completes, you must then sync to restore your iTunes content. You'll get a popup regarding your contacts, etc., asking to "Merge" or "Replace". Select "Merge".

  • I can't open any apps I downloaded after connecting to the computer (itunes) for the first time! Help!

    I connected my iphone 4s to my macpro for the first time to add some musci, I didn't touch the apps folder.
    But after ejecting, I can't open any of the apps I downloaded. When I press on them, they just shake but nothing opens!

    You shouldn't.  Downloading the app re-authenticated the iTunes account on your phone.  This happens to people from time to time (not sure why) but making you are logged into the Apple store in iTunes with your Apple ID prior to syncing might help.

  • I am going to back up to Time Machine for the first time

    which I know sounds nuts. I was manually doing it for the past 6 months- don't ask  why.
    Do I have to completely wipe out my Lacie and do any formatting to it? Or do I just delete everything from it and set my Time Machine to default backup to that drive and go from there as if I'm doing it for the first time?
    Also, I don't keep my EHD attached constantly to my laptop- I assume that is not a problem and whenever I hook it up, I can then ask TM to go to work?
    Sorry for the basic questions- appreciate the help!
    Thanks,
    Bernice

    I haven't burned a CD in years. My old MacBook doesn't have a DVD burner.
    The biggest issue is the size of your various drives. For Time Machine, your Time Machine drive should be three times the size of the drive you are backing up. If you don't quite have that (and I don't), you can get away with three times the amount of data you are backing up. Whichever configuration gives you that equation should be the one you use for Time Machine. You can partition one of the external drives so that one partition is big enough for Time Machine and the other is used for other purposes, such as archives. I have one external drive configured like that. If you don't have enough room to partition, then dedicate one drive to Time Machine and the other to archives and/or clones.
    Some people feel it is very important to maintain a long Time Machine history and migrate that to new drives. I don't quite understant that. I use Time Machine for backups, nothing more. I blow away all my backups on a fairly regular basis and start a fresh one. I don't need six month old versions of files. If I accidentally delete a file, I will notice sooner than that. If I have a hardware failure, I only need the last backup.
    I currently have those bootable clones only because my MacBook is in a funky state right now (long story) and my MacBook Pro is a work machine bound to an Active Directory domain. I can't rebuild that system by myself without IT from work and that would be difficult for me (longer story). I don't consider bootable clones to be a regular part of my backup strategy. They are useful snapshots and archives for specific times when I feel I need them.

  • How do I sign in to my iTunes for the first time? Everytime I try it says I have not used iTunes before, and to review my account information.

    How do I sign in to my iTunes for the first time? Everytime I try it says I have not used iTunes before, and to review my account information.

    It sounds like you are trying to create a new icloud account, not just logging into an existing account.  When you type in your Apple ID and get that error, it's because you are trying to create an account using the same ID that is already being used in another account.
    Go to Settings>iCloud and scroll to the bottom of the screen.  If you are logged in, press the Delete button, then try logging in with the existing ID.
    As for pics, the most secure way is to connect ipod to PC with USB and look at the Photos tab for your device in iTunes.  Using Photo Stream is another way, but it doesn't always work, depending on conditions.

  • Signing up for the first time with no success..

    I was reluctant to get Ipad and mac services but this is making me frustrated. Using a New Ipad, I signed up for a new Id.. using my email and a password that I know very well. I go to sign in for the first time and I get Id has not been used before please select review and..... well I hit review and nothing happens.. I try to go direct to apple id services and it says either my email or my password is incorrect. I've already requested to new passwords used them and requested a verification email which I get and go to verify and it is not working.. VERY FRUSTRATING...
    Please help..

  • Select statement is taking lot of time for the first time Execution.?

    Hi Experts,
    I am facing the following issue. I am using one select statement to retrieve all the contracts from the table CACS_CTRTBU according to FOR ALL ENTRIES restriction.
    if p_lt_zcacs[] is not initial.
    SELECT
               appl ctrtbu_id version gpart
               busi_begin busi_end tech_begin tech_end
               flg_cancel_obj flg_cancel_vers int_title
             FROM cacs_ctrtbu INTO TABLE lt_cacs FOR ALL ENTRIES IN p_lt_zcacs
                                                    WHERE
                                                    appl EQ gv_appl
                                                    AND ctrtbu_id EQ p_lt_zcacs-ctrtbu_id
                                                    AND  ( flg_cancel_vers EQ '' OR version EQ '000000' )
                                                    AND flg_cancel_obj EQ ''
                                                    AND busi_begin LE p_busbegin
                                                    AND busi_end GT p_busbegin.
    endif.
    The WHERE condition is in order with the available Index. The index has  APPL,CTRTBU_ID,FLG_CANCEL_VERS and FLG_CANCEL_OBJ.
    The technical settings of table CACS_CTRTBU says that the "Buffering is not allowed"
    Now the problem is , for the first time execution of this select statement, with 1.5 lakh entries in P_LT_ZCACS table, the select statement takes 3 minutes.
    If I execute this select statement again, in another run with Exactly the same parameter values and number of entries in P_LT_ZCACS ( i.e 1.5 lakh entries), it gets executed in 3-4 seconds.
    What can be the issue in this case? Why first execution takes longer time?.. Or is there any way to modify the Select statemnt to get better performance.
    Thanks in advance

    > Sreejith A P
    Sounds like caching or buffering in some layer down the i/o stack. Your first execution
    seems to do the "physical I/O" where your following executions can use the caches / buffers
    that are filled by your first exectution.

    > Sreejith A P
    If modifying your SELECTS statement or your indexes could help depends on your access details:
    does your internal table P_LT_ZCACS  contain duplicates?
    how do your indexes look like?
    how does your execution plan look like?
    what are your execution figures in ST05 - Statement Summary?
    (nr. of executions, records in total, total time, time per execuiton,  records per execution, time per record,...)
    Kind regards,
