Why does my iMac make a buzzing noise any time my iPhone 5 is near it, even when the phone is on wifi?
It reminds me of back in the day when your computer speakers would get interference whenever your cell phone is near it, but this is just a constant buzzing coming from my iMac whenever i have my iPhone 5 near it (e.g. sitting on the table next to the iMac when it's plugged in). My iPhone 4 and my last few phones before that never did that. I thought it might have been the LTE signal causing it, but it does it when it's on wifi as well.
The sound is louder if I have messenger running for some reason. It's odd as ****! If anyone has any ideas, please let me know!
I forgot to add, it's a Verizon phone so it's CDMA. It used to be only GSM phones that did this.

Why does my macbook make a funny noise when I open it?
After my macbook pro has been on the charger for some time & I open it up, it will make a funny noise & the screen will be blue with a bar on it. Takes a little bit before I can use it, Does anyone know what is wrong?

I quit all applications & close the lid. I usually use the charger all time. If I leave it unplugged from the charger, it will not do this. It will make a whirring noise & the screen will be blue over my background, will have a bar on it like it is loading. Then will finally let me use the curser after a few seconds. Only had the macbook for about 4 months. It started doing this about 2 month after I bought it.
If you are still under warranty and/or have AppleCare, call them. Let them deal w/it.
Before calling them, try the following first:

Why does my imac make the unlock sound when it's not in use
On several occasions over the past few days I've heard my iMac make the sounds I associate with unlocking preferences several times while I was not using the machine. Can anyone explain this?
Does any apps are running the background? If yes, check them and close them. Are you using it under any high levels of temperature?

HT1338 why does my imac keep making a noise every 30 seconds when I am not using it?
My iMac keeping making a sound (sort of a clicking sound) every 30 seconds when I am not using it. It is very annoying; is therre a way to stop it?
Bring it in to service, and ask them to tell you what the noise is. Sometimes it just is the optical drive realigning itself. It could be the sign of a dying hard drive. Only they can tell the difference.

I have an Apple iphone 4. It will import my photos but when I am in Windows Media Centre and want to sync music it asks me to Connect a Device when my phone is already connected. I have been able to do this in the past but for some reason this fault has just begun Do you know the reason for this?
Are you certain that it is locked to Orange?
Regardless, Apple does not lock devices, carriers do.
If the carrier refuses to unlock the device there is nothing that can be done. -
Why does my computer make a hissing noise sometimes?
Sometimes the noise comes on and off and I have no idea why. Also, it hums continously sometimes, does anyone know why?
No one here can diagnose that sort of hardware issue. Take it in for analysis.

Why does my speaker make a humming noise?
Its kind of a high pitched whine. It's there whether I am listening to anything or not, anytime I have the volume on. The higher the volume, the louder the hum. It's less than two months old.
did you ever find out what was causing the problem? The same issue just began with my phone. the audio recording is fine for voice memos, phone calls, etc. but the video is just a buzzing sound

hi, since updating my iphone 3gs with latest software it makes a noise when sending/recieving texts even though there is no text tone selected
Hi Thisslowgt,
If you are having issues with your iPhone making unexpected sound signals, you may want to try some things to troubleshoot.
First, quit all running applications and test again -
iOS: Force an app to close
Next, I would try restarting the iPhone -
Turn your iOS device off and on (restart) and reset
If the issue is still present, you may want to restore the iPhone as a new device -
iOS: How to back up your data and set up your device as a new device
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.

When ever I boot up my mac mini it re-opens all of my activity from my previous use of it. This happens even if I quit all the running programes before I turned it off. It does not effect the computer when its running but it is bugging the crap out of me. Any help would be much appreiciated.
Try going to System Preferences > General > and uncheck Restore windows when quitting and re-opening apps
See if that helps.
Also when you say you quit all running programs, do you just click on the red X ballon in the top left or do you actually CMD + Quit? -

Why does my computer play strange music at random times and how can I stop it?
why does my computer play strange music at random times and how can I stop it? The music isn't anything on my machine and the only way I can switch it off is to reboot. Can anyone advise me please. It's driving me nuts ... I don't even like the music it's playing!
What apps are open and are you really still only on 10.5.1??????? At the very least please update your profile, also please remember to post more information. I suspect it's something going on with just your user account. You can verify that by creating another user account (call it TEST ACCOUNT) and log into that account and test. Once this has been verified then you will need to check which apps are running to determine what is causing your issue.

Why does my iMac display go off when I am starting up or waking up my machine from sleep..
Why does my iMac display go off when I am starting up or waking up my machine from sleep..?
When my iMac goes to sleep I then later try to click the magic track pad or keyboard and it will usually then show the initial password entry login screen and then go off. The machine is still on but the display is black and will sometimes flash up the screen again if I press the magic track pad or keyboard but will then black out again..Well, there are many different reasons why it does this. It might shut off due to power voltage problems, system overheats, or there is a System Problem. The reason it might be hard to boot up is because your power button might not work properly or your system hard drive is damaged.
