Whoosh sound is very weak

Since I upgraded to Yosemite, the whoosh sound has become disproportionately weak, compared to the strength of other sounds, such as the one for receiving new email. Yes, I can always increase the general volume, but that will make the other sounds uncomfortably strong. This was not the case up to the previous version of OS X and Mail.

I had a similar problem with my old iPhone 4. What I did was cut the speaker mesh off the phone and was amazed by the difference but first I would check that somehow you hadn't set a volume limit on it if it is while trying to listen to apps or music.

  • Guitar sound very weak?

    Hi
    I'm turning around trying to sort out a problem with a 'real' guitar whilst recording. I've been having no problems plugging in my guitar into my Presonus Firebox, setting up a guitar sound (ex : dynamic wah), and then playing along with whatever I'm doing.
    However this morning I don't seem to be able to get the guitar to work. The sound/signal is almost non existent! My microphone seems to work fine (I'm also using a firebox control to boost by 12db etc) but for some strange reason very weak levels (if any).
    Can someone either give me some suggestions, or run through the set up as maybe there's something not correctly lined up.
    ° I'm going into my Firebox on channel 2 (tried 1 but didn't make any difference) - boosted as already mentioned.
    ° The channel strip is set up - input 1, output 1-2
    Help!!

    problem solved, the guitar jack input somehow went down over night!

  • Very weak one bar signal on iphone 5. callers cannot hear me. HELP

    Very weak one bar signal on iphone 5. callers cannot hear me. Other iphones work good in the same locations. HELP

    A network extender? Not sure what that is.. Sounds like it might help here at home.. But what about outside the house? At work, the store, or just out on the road?
    I'm hopeing this is something that can get fixed.. I hate to think I wasted all this money on something that doesn't work.. Does apple have a return police?
    I think I'll try getting an appointment at the apple store to see if they can fix this issue.
    Thanks for your help.

  • Microphone Input Very Weak?

    Just recently I tried to do a voiceover for a project, and I used Garageband. My microphone at that point sounded weak, but earlier in the day it was fine when I was using photobooth. It has since then been very weak, and I can't record any voiceovers. Any reasons for this?

    Under System Preferences / Sound / Input and then "Settings for Selected Device", is the "Input volume" set lower than it should be?
    Alternatively, if you an MP3 file out of garageband and then listen to that file in iTunes, does the audio still sound weak?

    ip5s's why I do not live screen and camera are very weak faint? please check for me seri17m800xffgc

    Sorry, not quite accepted, I see that I missed something out...
    This rapid flashing has only occured since I had BT Sport included in my package a few days back. Before then the light had been stable green with the occasional rapid flashing whilst I have been connected to the internet. That obviously does indicate data transfer.
    However, when I was not connected to the internet, the light glowed a stable green all the time. Now it flashes rapidly even when I'm not connected - I'll add there that my BT Vision box remains on all the time.
    Heat - The unit IS WARMER than it was - That may sound nit-picking but with my OCD's I "Touch-check" every item of electrical equipment every time I leave my house and, when I go to bed at night  so I am very well used to "How warm something should be" so that in my mind, I "Feel Safe". At this time I don't "Feel Safe" with the increased temperature so have to switch it off overnight, or when I leave my house.
    ** The unit may of course be warmer due to extra data-transfer but then, why do I suddenly have extra, and constant data transfer when my computers are switched off and I'm not using the internet?
    A thought about that I think could be that someone else is constantly accessing my connection though I've no idea how that could be so or if that ever could happen.

  • I bought my iPhone 4 open line in Vancouver, Canada last week for use here in my home base in Bangkok, Thailand.  But when I tried using my Thai sim, I get a very weak signal, if not a weak signal, then a no service status.  What do I do?

    I bought my iPhone 4 open line in Vancouver, Canada last week for use here in my home base in Bangkok, Thailand.  But when I tried using my Thai sim, I get a very weak signal, if not a weak signal, then a no service status.  I also have very weak wifi reception.  What do I do?
    I already tried the following:
    a. Turned the phone off and then on.
    b. Checked all wifi connections – no problem given that all our laptops and desktops can connect seamlessly.
    c. I tried restoring the phone to original factory settings via itunes
    d. Tried resetting the phone.
    e.     Tried different microsims from all networks
    f. However, all methods failed given that the network reception is very weak and often reflects – “no service”.  And with regards to the wifi reception It has difficulty in reading even the signal right in front of the wifi router.
    I went to two Apple resellers here in Bangkok and requested that they please look at my Iphone and have it serviced.  I was frustrated when they said that given that I bought my phone in Canada, they are not able to support me and should instead try to contact the Apple store in Canada. 
    I went to apple.ca website and went to the expresslane support and I was said to register and callback.  Tried calling the 1800 number but given that I was in Thailand I had difficulty getting a connection.

  • Sound is very quiet !

    Hi
    I recently bought a zen mp3 from 32 GB
    but now I've put some songs on it and the sound is very quiet, even when I put it on 25 !
    my brother has a zen mp3 of 8 GB and his sound is very loud at 25.
    Does anyone knows how i can get the songs to play louder?
    thanks
    sjesches

    Hi,
    I had a similar problem with my ZEN, the sound was just too low for my requirements as I listen to it a lot along busy roads where there is a lot of noise. I assume that you have the European firmware on your ZEN, check it, the European firmware ends in an "e". If so, you might try downloading and installing the US firmware which you can download from the US site. Download the US firmware first before throwing out the European firmware, then install the US firmware. This is much louder than the Euopean firmware, I believe this is because in Europe the authorities want to protect their young people from ruining their hearing and therefore restrict the volume of players.
    Now that I have the US firmware on my ZEN I have no problem with the sound anymore.
    Have fun with your player!

  • Bluetooth Whooshing Sound?

    On my new iPhone 4 whenever I use the Bluetooth in my car (with it's built in bluetooth) there is a strange whooshing sound that varies in volume and sometimes goes away completely. It wasn't an issue with my previous phone but now when I call people from my car they notice it -- usually asking if I have the A/C on. Any ideas for what I can do to fix this?

  • Very weak Right Channel output

    Looks like this is a growing hardware defect on the iPod Classics.  This leaves me wondering how long Apple will ignore this before resolving the problem or do their sales level leave them unmotivated to even discuss it. 
    I have the 160GB model, about 15 months old.  The right channel has gone VERY weak.
    I am using the standard factory headset which works fine in any other device so the headset is ruled out.
    The headset jack in the iPod is clean and makes good contract with the headset and persists when connected via the base connector (see below), so the headset jack is ruled out.
    I can connect the iPod to a portable docking port that connects to the iPod via the connector at the base of the headset.  The right channel is also weak when playing music out the portable dock speakers.  So, this rules out all connectors.
    Next, I tried changing the Equalizer settings across all personalities (Rock, Jazz, etc) with no change in the problem.
    Next, I tried doing a master reset (Press and hold the Play/Pause and Menu buttons simultaneously until the Apple/iPod logo appears). No joy.  Problem
    Finally, the Factory Reset was tried using iTunes (which only seems to erase the hard disk and reload all my music).
    None of this has worked.  Either there was a bad firmware update from Apple, which they will never admit to by policy obviously, or there is a hardware defect in the latest design of the iPod Classic.  There are far too many people posting this problem on the net for this to be an isolated case.
    Has anyone found a resolution to this problem (WITHOUT armchair guessing)?
    Thanks.

    - If it works with other headphones the try inserting/removing the plug a dozen times or so. Also try cleaning out/blowing out the headphone jack
    - Next Try the standard fixes to rule out a software problem.
    - Reset. Nothing was lost
    Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Restore from backup
    - Restore to factory settings/new iPod.
    If still problem that points to a problem with the headophone jack.
