Weird Mario Music Plays for no Reason -- HELP!!!

Ok guys, I just upgraded to leopard today, and I'm gettin REALLY weird problems. Sometimes, my macbook just plays this weird mario theme like music or this weird buzzing and bird chirping sound for no reason whatsoever. I have made sure that there is nothing running other than finder, yet it is still happening. Also, if it helps, I took a list of all the activities in my activity monitor, so see if you can see anything weird. Here is the list (Now that I think about it, the problem started after I installed the Boot Camp Drivers on my Windows Partition):

I know that there is a lot of stuff, but I really need help. I've shut off sound for now, but I'm really getting confused. HELP!!!

Hahahhahahahahahahahah!!!!!
I just figured it out.
I had made a web clip of Nintendo.com, and apparanty, it was making the sounds. I guess I didn't realize that web clips keep the sounds associated with the webpages they are linked to. In the end, I guess I paniced over nothing, but man, that was WEIRD!

Music plays for some more minutes while deactivating android device

I have main menu(swf file) with music when I lock android device screen dims but music plays for some more minute and stops. I gave CurrentMovieClip.Stop(), in deavtive event. How could I stop music too while the screen goes please help me on this

If you've just added the sound to a frame (assuming you're using Flash), you can stop all sounds with SoundMixer.stopAll()
You would also need to import flash.media.SoundMixer.

Lagging - Music plays for 5 sec., then stop for 10 sec.???

I bought the AE last week and it worked fine for 2 days, then on a morning, for no particular reason. It started to lag heavily. music will play for 2-5 seconds then stops for another 2-5 second, then play again for 2-5 sec.
I tried everything from restarting AE, upgrade Frameware to 6.2 then downgraded to 6.1, upgraded to itune 5 today, nothing works... it is the very same problem.
I am using a Dlink "B" only wireless router, does it make a different? and why did the AE work for 2 days then started this heavy lagging.
Please help
Brian

I too have been experiencing the exact same issues. Mine has ran perfectly now for months however. From a terminal prompt if you cd /var/log and look at the system.log file you may find the airport link going down the up again (which would certainly account for lags/outages). The link down and up messages are what I am seeing. Often changing the channel will help as interference from other networks/devices can cause the issue as well. My problem began last Saturday, and continued even after I upgraded the firmware to 6.2. As of right now it is running fine again. A friend mentioned that there was a larger than normal amount of Solar activity that was wreaking havoc with some cell phone coverage recently. It would be interesting if these issues go away in the next week or so. Thoughts?

Previewing itunes music plays for 5 seconds and then stops

Hi and Help! When I attempt to preview a song on itunes, the song plays for about five seconds and then ends.

Perhaps try resetting your iTunes Store Cache.
Go "Edit > Preferences". In the Advanced tab, click the "Reset cache" button shown in the following screenshot:
... and then click OK.
Restart your iTunes, and head back to the Store. Are you getting full previews now?

MBP unexpectedly shuts down for no reason- help!

MBP unexpectedly shuts down for no reason.
My MBP has been working fine, until I updated to 10.5. Originally this problem started in Bootcamp running XP, but has now done this once in OS X, just a while ago. There seems to be no difference- even when the psu is plugged in. Just now when it did this again, I pressed the power key and the led on the front blinked really fast, then there was a tone- like it was doing a firmware update (but I did the firmware update months ago!).
I've done a power reset- taking out the battery and holding the power key down for 20 seconds, which seems to have helped, but then again this problem seems to be rather sporadic, and one can never tell when it is going to happen next.
Oh yes, there is a mechanical 'click' that sounds when it does it- like a relay click. Is there a relay power related IC on the motherboard?
Any clues anyone? (I'm sending this exact letter to Apple as well)
Tom

It's an interesting thread, but I seem to have the problem even when the cord is plugged in. I did have battery problems when I first got this MBP, but they seemed to settle down once I used the computer a bit more. FWIW, I have now got them mostly while using Bootcamp. BC beta 1.3 was really stable and good. It wasn't until I bought Leopard that this problem started. And again, it's only happened 3 or 4 times now.
I'll just have to keep saving. I'm sure Apple will wise up to this sooner or later. (Incidently, I haven't been able to send anything to Apple as I can't find their direct contact addie. Can someone 'remind' me? Thanks!

Music plays for 2 seconds and quits

I have had great luck with my iPod touch over the last year. I just upgraded to the 3.0 software and after purchasing a couple albums through the iTunes store, the music won't play for more than 2 seconds. I am also not able to browse through my library on my iPod touch. I have tried all of the general troubleshooting tips except restoring the iPod. Any ideas what is causing the problem?

if none of the other troubleshooting steps work, you should restore it. will almost certainly fix it. fixes all sorts of things.

Brand new account disabled for security reasons -- Help!

Santa brought my daughter an iPod Touch for her main Christmas present. She was so excited, but we cannot get it to work.
We had trouble entering the password and making it match because of my big clumsy fingers (she is blind so I was doing it for her because the speech function wasn't working/wasn't turned on....we are still figuring out how to work it). This is the only reason I can think of to cause this to happen.
When I first got this message I reset the password as required, but this timed out as I had trouble coming up with a password that she could remember that also met Apple's requirements. So I started over again. We are now on our third password in 2 hours, but it is still not working.
I am trying to download the apps for blind users from iTunes, but I keep getting this message that her account has been disabled for security reasons and it tells us to reset the password. However, resetting the password does not fix the problem.
The Apple tech support line is closed for Christmas, so that is no help.
This is going to be a very sad Christmas for my little girl if I cannot discover a way to fix this problem.
I hope someone out there will see this and know what to do!
Thank you!

You need to contact Apple Support: If your Apple ID has been locked - Apple Support
The dialog "This Apple ID has been disabled for security reasons" means that it might be temporary. You can stop trying to log in for a day or two, after which you might be able to log in. Attempting to change it multiple times within an hour won't work. If you were more or less permanently locked out and unable to do anything on your own, they use different wording.
Apple is intentionally vague about the means by which you can recover from this on your own... for security reasons.

Powering down for no reason, HELP

My I-Mac G5 powers down for no reason. I will be sitting there staring at it and it will just shut down. Any ideas?

Hello JSug,
You have verified that the Energy Saver setting (System Preferances -> Energy Saver) are not responsable for this? Default settings are to put the computer to sleep after 15 minutes of no input to either mouse or keyboard.
If you have done that I would would try resetting the SMU (Resetting the SMU)

Ipad 2 ipod stops playing for no reason

recently the ipod on my ipad 2 stops playing music mid-song for no apparent reason... I haven't actually change anything or done anything unusual to it, so not sure what could be causing this?
Thanks!

Try a Reset [Hold the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons down together for 10 seconds or so (until the Apple logo appears) and then release. The screen will go blank and then power ON again in the normal way.] It is app and data safe!

I can't hear any sound from my earpiece for incoming and outgoing calls or music playing for 5s

hi can anyone help me?, i have an iphone 5c about 2months old and randomly today i tried to play music but there was no sound. When recieve calls it rings i pick up and its quiet no sound nothing same thing when i dial a number

Hello channyk,
It sounds like you are unable to hear from your receiver on the phone and from the speaker as well. I would use the troubleshooting from the following article:
iPhone: No sound or distorted sound from speaker
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts5180
Verify that the volume is set to a level you would normally be able to hear.
Ensure that there is nothing plugged in to the headset jack or the dock connector.
If the iPhone is in a protective case, make sure that the speaker port isn't blocked by the case.
Make sure that the speaker and dock port aren't clogged with debris. If necessary, clean it with a clean, small, dry, soft-bristled brush. Carefully and gently brush away any debris.
If an audio issue occurs when using a specific application, try testing other applications to see if the issue persists.
If the iPhone is paired with a Bluetooth headset or car kit:
Try turning off Bluetooth.
If you experience difficulties with the Bluetooth feature, follow these troubleshooting steps.
Restart the iPhone.
If restarting doesn't fix the issue, ensure that your iPhone is updated to the latest version of iOS.
If the issue is not resolved, please contact Apple Support.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
Take care,
Sterling

Movie clip stops playing for no reason

I am making a banner that has multiple movie clips sharing the same area, creating different rainbow effects when different areas (invisible buttons) are moused over.
First of all I couldn't figure out if there was a way to have one invisible button over the whole area that changed to a different colored effect with each mouse over (first mouse over the black and whites would change to reds, second would change it to blues, third would change it to browns, etc.). Since I couldn't figure this out I settled on creating three buttons covering a third of the banner each, so when the mouse passes over one button it changes to reds, over another button it changes to blues, over the third it changes to browns.
The effects are movie clips where each frame has another stripe changing color so it goes in a wave effect from one to the next, and then goes back to white and black in the same manner. The first frame of each movie clip I had to turn into a nested movie clip so I could turn the alpha to 0, since I was going to have these color effect movie clips on top of one another in the main timeline on different layers, and so you could see the effect even if that color layer wasn't on top. I used the same nested movie clip with zero alpha for the first frame of each color effect clip (reds movie clip, blues movie clip, etc), so I dont' know if that's an issue.
Anyway, it seemed to work fine for a while, but after working on it for a while longer (and not getting any further since I removed most of the changes I made), now when I test the movie the mouse over does not seem to work correctly. It works fine, seemingly, for the first time I mouse over each button, but in order to have it work again I have to mouse over the button twice, and then it will pause randomly during a part of the clip and I have to move my mouse back over for the movie clip to continue.
I can't tell if this is because of the overlapping movie clips, or because my buttons are messed up, or if my actionscript is messed up, or if the timeline has to be longer, or what. Currently the timeline is 55 frames, the same as each movie clip.
I put a movieclip_instance.stop(); command in the first frame of the main timeline, is there a better way to do this? Should I put the stop command in the movie clip itself?
Here is a section of my AS in the main timeline, this is my first time programming ever, in any language, and trying to learn from the internet is more difficult than I thought it would be.
redmovie.stop();
red_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.ROLL_OVER, playRed);
function playRed(event:MouseEvent):void
          redmovie.play();

I am not sure of what the problem is, so I don't know if this will help or not. One thing I might suggest is that you use gotoAndPlay(1) instead of play(). That way, if your movieclip is in the middle of playing it won't continue but will start from the beginning.
You could use one button to have the different movieclips play in sequence if you prefer that. You would just need to have some form of counter that keeps track of which is the next to play. Somethin like...
var mcCounter:uint = 0; // start at 0 since an array is being used to identify which movieclip to play
var mcs:Array = new Array(redmovie, bluemovie, brownmovie);
only_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.ROLL_OVER, playMC);
function playMC(event:MouseEvent):void
         mcs[mcCounter].play();                  // tell the current mc to play
         mcCounter += 1;                            // increment for the next mc
         if(mcCounter == 3) mcCounter = 0; // reset the counter if it exceeds the array

What are my options for in car charging AND music playing for iPhone 3G?

Ok, before you direct me to the other threads, I have read them, and I still don't know what product I can buy for my 3G that will charge my phone and play music in my car.
With my original iPhone I was using the Griffin iTrip FM transmitter. It always gave me that message to ask if I want to switch to airplane mode. I would pick yes or no, then it would charge and play music.
When I plug in my 3G I get the yellow triangle warning that says this device doesn't charge this phone (paraphrasing of course). It appears that it will play music, but if it won't charge my phone then I'm going to run the battery down fast. I rely on being able to charge my phone a bit during the day in the car.
I do not have any AUX port in my car or any kind of iPod hookup in my car that I am reading about on other threads. As far as I know, an FM transmitter or a cassette adapater (I do have a tape deck) are my only options. However, since my husband's car that I drive on the weekends to work does not have a tape deck, I would really prefer a device that does not use a tape (also my previous experience with a tape adapter is that they stop working after a short while).
The power port in my car is nearly at the floor, nowhere near the dash, so any device I use cannot require me to rely on the "on device" controls to control the music.
I see this on amazon
*Griffin PowerJolt Car Charger for iPod and iPhone (Black)*
*Technical Details*
*¿ Enjoy full use of your iPod or iPhone during car trips, and arrive with your battery fully charged.*
*¿ Includes detachable Dock Connector to USB Type A cable that can be used separately to connect your iPod or iPhone to your computer.*
*¿ Includes USB Type A to mini-B cable so you can charge while using Griffin iTrip or other dock connector devices that have built-in pass-throughs.*
*¿ 2 Amp automotive blade-type fuse protects against spikes and surges and is easily replaceable.*
*¿ Works with iPhone, iPod models that feature full-size dock connector, and iPod shuffle (1st generation).*
And in another thread, people reported that the Griffin powerjolt DOES work with the 3G, so does the above description mean that I can use this device with my iTrip to charge and play music?

My Pioneer iPod car audio adapter cable does NOT charge my iPhone 3G and they have no plans to change this at this time.
I have a cheapo Griffin car iPod charger (the kind that has a plug for the cigarette lighter and a separate cable that has a mini-USB on one end and a dock connector on the other) and it DOES charge my 3G iPhone.
Go figure, but for now there it is.
Someone HAS to be working on an adapter that goes between the 3G iPhone and a dock connector device to fix this charging issue (which I guess has to do with the last iPhone and many iPods being able to charge via USB at 5V and/or FireWire at 12V but the new iPhone only charging via USB at 5V)

Iphone 3GS periodically reboots for no reason, help ?

Hi everyone,
I have a problem with my iPhone 3GS bought 2 years ago in France. (Now i am located in Morocco)
After i updated to 4.1 iphone started to reboot itself periodically for no apparent reason every 5 minutes.
I already tried to restore my iphone, but it doesent seem to help.
What should i do?
Thanks in advance!

ok,did you try these steps? restart.reset.restore? but if you say what you restore it than try to call apple support,and one more thing-if you are on 4.1 update to 4.2-because when i have my iPhone on iOS 4.1 i cannot use it because there was issues with battery draining but after i update to 4.2 everything is normal,and i hate the iOS 4.1,try to update hope it will fix that.
