Weird Bubble Sound Happens Randomly

every once in a whiel, randomly, my iphone will make a weird bubble sound. it's not the sound that it makes when you send a text message, it's some other sound.
but it happens randomly. i can't figure out what's triggering it. and nothing happens when it makes this sound. the screen doesn't turn back on, i get no notification, no text, no email, no messages from anything, nothing from any of my apps
i have no idea what this random sound is. does anyone have any idea what this is or what it means?

The developers know about it. The last post in the thread above points to the following:
Here is the response from Life360, we found the culprit.

Hello,
Thank you for your feedback. This noise happens when an error message populates in the application. We have passed your feedback onto the developers to see if they would like to change the noise or remove it completely. Thank you for using Life360.

Apparently there is no notification bubble since the noise is associated with something that is not supposed to happen. It's a bug.
Mystery solved.

I have a macbook pro with OSX Mavericks 10.9.5 and some keys that are not working. Specifically, the enter/return button, the "p", "0", ";", and all the function keys. What's really weird is that happens randomly. I've never spilled anything on it

I have a macbook pro with OSX Mavericks 10.9.5 and some keys randomly are not working. Specifically, the enter/return button, the "p", "0", ";", and all the function keys. What's really weird is that happens randomly. I've never spilled anything on it, and I can't for the life of me figure out how to fix this. Can anyone help? of course this happened after my warranty expired.

**update**
I don't know if this will help someone but I am posting this for that purpose. In the past when I first had this problem, I'd read a post somewhere (sorry, long ago, don't have the link) where an individual was having the same problem and they stated that when the MBP got heated, that's when the keys would stop working, and they went into the MBP and jiggle some stuff around (a specific wire, I'm not electronically inclined so I know NOT of what they spake!). Well I didn't want to do that but it always stuck in the back of my mind. I had given up, really, and was planning to take my MBP to the apple store. But by chance one night I left my MBP on the floor where it's cool, and when I turned it on, the problem went - poof! It seems there was some validity to the post that spoke about heat, because my problems started when I would stream foreign dramas on my MBP for hours at night, and I would hear the fan going off all the time, and in the mornings, my "p", "enter", "0", ";", and all the function keys would stop working.
So, maybe try keeping the MBP in a cool place when it's off. Since I've started doing this overnight every night (keeping it on the cool floor, out of reach of any big feet), I have not had a single problem with my keyboard.
Hopefully this might help someone.

I just bought my macbook and ever 15 minutes there like bubble sound coming from my macbook which is very annoying and I don't know where this sound coming from?

If you just purchaed it, you are still under warranty, (for 1 year) take it in and have it checked out. This is probably just a setting, but your desciption is difficult to follow.
You are still under warranty, take advantage of it!
Do you have any reminders set?

Weird Buzzing Sound

I just bought a new mac pro, and it's about a week old. All of a sudden when I wake it this weird buzzing sound happens and last for about 3-5 minutes. Is something wrong with my mac?

While I don't get this noise myself that does not mean it's not normal, however, I would contact AppleCare regarding it regardless.
I don't know what a UPS is
A UPS is an uninterruptable power supply and serves two funtions…
1) Provide a battery backup in case of a power outtaging giving you time to save your work and shutdown (or not).
2) Provides your sensitive electronic equipment clean power which is free of power surges and borwn-outs (power drops) which is the cause of most electronic damage.
It's highly recommended and I personally would not connect my Mac Pro to power without one.

IPhone playing weird church sound randomly

Hey.
I've noticed that my iPhone plays a weird church bell like sound just randomly maybe 2-4 times a day.
It's almost like a clock that would hit say 6 o'clock and play sound, you know what I mean?
But it's weird because it plays it just randomly, even if the clock was 5:34 or something, I've checked all programs and none of them have any notifications when this occurs.
Any ideas?

Check all of your apps, there are apps in the app store that can cause this.
This is one:

This is another that has been reported to cause this:

A weird sound happens when I sign on to Facebook

I have a 2009 Macbook Pro and am using FF 3.6.13.
Everytime I sign on/off to Facebook or Google a weird lazer-gun sound happens.
This doesn't happen with any of the other major browsers I have.
It only happens with Facebook and any Google account.
With Google as I sign off the username/password fields automatically fill with "MyUsername" and the dots (who knows what password is being entered!).
I've tried deleting all cookies and restarting FF and it still does this.

To clarify, when I hear the lazer-gun sound it automatically fills in the user/pass fields on sign off with the image I uploaded. On sign on it just makes the sound but signs me on to my account as normal.
With Facebook it just makes the lazer-gun sound but does not do what the Google example I uploaded shows.
The lazer-gun sound is like a lazer-tag gun sound.
I suspect there is some bug in my browswer, but it only affects Facebook and any Google account that I have in the manner I describe.
How would I get rid of these?

Sound continues while video freezes - have to force quit. Happens randomly but very often.

Sound working randomly in flash, vlc, gnome-mplayer since today

Hello,
My sound setup worked perfectly since my Arch install, but I see today that now my sound setup works randomly in flashplayer, vlc media player, and gnome-mplayer :S
My channels aren't muted in alsamixer, of course my speakers are on...
I don't see where the problem is :s
Any idea ?
Thank you

Okay, I found the problem:
I thought that this bug happened randomly, but it's not the case
In fact, I don't lost the sound, but every time I start playing a file with gnome-mplayer, the PCM channel of my sound configuration is significantly decreased
I saw that by running alsamixer when I noticed a sound problem
Is that a "feature" or a bug ?

Weird ticking sound when adjusting the volume...

Hi all
When adjusting the volume using the F3 F4, my new ibook 12" g4 makes a weird ticking sound before it catches up an adjusts the volume with the normal "blop" sound. Is this normal? Batteri is on "normal."
Thanks
Erlend

I have this same problem with my new 1.33Ghz iBook G4. I've had the logic board replaced twice and the top assembly with the speakers replaced twice also. It still makes the ticking noise and it's quite specific to reproduce so none of the Apple tech have spent the time to reproduce it. I think this problem is more wide spread than Apple realizes.
Here are the factors that HAVE to exist for this problem to be reproduced:
1. The computer must be have the AC adapter unplugged and running off of the battery.
2. Un-click "Play feedback when volume is changed" in System Preferences under "Sound" (While this is not exclusive to having the "ticking audio" problem occur, it is easier to notice with this box unchecked)
3. 10.4.2 or 10.4.3 (even happens on a fresh install)
4. Push the F4 and F5 keys to change the volume for at least 10-20 seconds and the "ticking sound" will occur. (the lagging after the tick is most annoying.)
Launching iTunes and playing audio will temporarily make this problem subside. Once this problem occurs with "Play feedback when volume is changed" unchecked, it will continue until audio is played or the sound preference panel is accessed. Often the sound balance will be 100% to the left after this problem has started occuring. (Checking the Sound preference panel shows this)
Has anyone had this problem fixed permanently? Apple seems to be unaware of this problem. 10.4.4 could fix it. Unfortunately we are not even sure if this is a hardware problem or a software issue. I will post with details of what happens when I bring my machine in to the Apple store for the 4th or 5th time.

Weird humming sound

Hi, after updating to 10.4.10, my MBP will generate this weird humming sound with my external speakers.
It only happens when nothing is playing. Its comes slowly and becomes louder slowly. The humming noise stops whenever I start to play something. (Anything that generate sound. MP3, AVI, DVD etc)
Any idea how to resolve this?

There isn't any other way. All you can do is a rollback. I myself am getting the humming sound, a popping sound in the speakers, greatly decreased volume at the maximum, and bizarre fan activity. And this is running the full Combo update, repairing permissions, and everything else. I Think I will be spending the day tomorrow rolling back to 10.4.9

IPhone 4s Voice Memo App has 5 second delay when the record button is pressed. When it starts recording, it goes from 0 seconds to 5 or so seconds recorded. This happens randomly and often and sometimes has the delay but starts at zero. Solution Anyone?

After iOS 7 update, my iPhone 4s Voice Memo App has 5 second delay when the record button is pressed. When it starts recording, it goes from 0 seconds to 5 or so seconds that it shows has recorded. This happens randomly and often, sometimes it will have the 5+ second delay but starts recording at zero seconds. Besides the delay it has been working fine as far as saving and playback is concerned. I have plenty of storage on the phone itself and it NEVER had this problem before I updated to iOS 7. I've reset the phone a couple times by holding down the power and home buttons at the same time. The reason I have an issue with this is that I'm always recording song ideas, melodies, and scratch takes; what I'm saying is when I come up with an idea I need to be able to know that when I hit record it will start right then so I don't forget anything that has just popped in my mind.
Does anyone have a solution or suggestion?
Thanks

Rezound notification/alarm sounds change randomly

Has anybody else noticed these sounds changing randomly? I had an email arrive one night, and instead of my normal simply beep...it started randomly playing a podcast. Needless to say, my wife is not amused with my new phone. This morning, instead of being awoken by my typical song that starts off slow, and slowly builds...it randomly changed to a song that starts off with a loud screeching sound.
Of course, now that I am outside of my return period, my wife is threatening to throw my phone across the room if it wakes her up in the middle of the night with a frightening sound again. Any thoughts? I know there are more people with this problem, as I saw it listed as one of the "other widespread" problems on the XDA forums (http://forum.xda-developers.com/archive/index.php/t-1342600.html).
Any thoughts?

Are all your notifications tones custom ones? Are the custom tones saved in the following folder structure? This is the default folders that I have found that Android defaults to looking in first after the system folders and will automatically add the tones to the proper selections lists.
(Internal or the SD card memory):\media\audio\ringtones
(Internal or the SD card memory):\media\audio\notifications
(Internal or the SD card memory):\media\audio\alarms
I did have a similar issue with my Thunderbolt after a system update. I was finally able to clear the issue up by clearing all the data in the "HTC Sense" app. I had to set up all my homescreens, wallpaper, and ringtones all over again. It was worth the effort since it was wasn't full factory reset. Of which I was planning to do if the data clearing didn't work.

Weird bubbles under the screen.

There are weird bubbles inside the glass of the screen, it looks almost like a fingerprint on the glue holding the screen onto the glass... would this be somethig that I could get my Macbook Pro Display replaced for?

This seems to be an ongoing issue that we're trying to get Apple to resolve, it seems that some production batches have a bad AR coating that gradually comes off (and it'll get worse), have a look at this thread. We're trying to get Apple to take notice of this issue
My Retina Display has stain damage, HELP!!!

Weird Mail sound

Does anyone else's email alert sound have a weird hiss sound after it plays -- BING, then a quick sisss
Very odd.

On my MacBook Pro 13.3 Retina I hear a kind of white noise in the following cases:
1) Just after plugging-in my headphones and it lasts about 1 min.
2) Once a system sound (notification of smth else) has palyed. It lasts some 10-15 sec. and ends with a click sound.
I know that people are able to hear deferent frequences depending on their age: younger people can hear frequences that are inaudible to older ones. Thay would be nice that Apple finally fix it, as it's frustrating to work with headphones on.

WEIRD ACTIVITY - started with random activation of Voice Over Utility

Ok, really weird s**t happening with my PowerMac G5 running OSX 10.4.5 - while operating Logic Pro, the Voice Over Utility suddenly activated. I went in to disable it and noticed that Restart, Shut Down, and Log Out repeat in the pull down Apple menu. So in descending order, it is: Sleep, Restart, Restart, Shut Down, Shut Down, Log Out, Log Out. Everytime a website loads in Safari, a small audio sample of a sleigh plays. What the f**k is going on? Anyone else experiencing anything similar? Any help would be MUCH appreciated.
PowerMac G5 Mac OS X (10.4.5)

Hello Adam,
Not really weird. I assume that a command in Logic Pro (or a shortcut you've set yourself) is cmd-F5 or something similar. This is the keystroke to activate VoiceOver.
Once VoiceOver is activated, it does duplicate the commands on the Apple menu—you'll notice that the second occurrence of each has no ellipsis, showing that the dialogue box that would normally appear will be inhibited. Similarly, in Safari, when a page is loaded, VoiceOver signals completion of loading to the blind user by the little sleigh tune.
Suggest you investigate the shortcuts in Logic Pro and change any that conflict with the system (via System Preferences—>Keyboard and Mouse).
HTH
Archie
