Why Does My MacBook Air Make Random Sounds That Sound As If Am Getting Random Facebook Messages?

HelP!

Here's a link to a discussion on reddit that I found before posting here.

I Would be very surprised if it were a software issue...  Also I have had the pop with the volume at the lowest, and near the highest... And in between.. The volume of the POP doesn't seem to change.
ill put my best guess in the hat...  It could be a discharge of static electricity that built up on the new laminated glass display.
ssorry to say I've already repacked mine for return.  I loved the speed!  However, there are way too many bugs with 8.1.  I could deal with the POP if iOS 8.1 were up to at least some quality bar.. I like the features in 8.1, but for,me, it's unusable with all the issues I've found.  I wouldn't blame it on the testers.. they probably already found these issues.   it looks like the bugs were 'postponed' and the release was rushed out the door..
ANd and I was just about to update my old ipad to 8.1.. I'm so glad I didn't.
ignore the part below.. I'm using safari and this editor is giving me ****.  What's up with that?

  • Why does my Macbook Air make a single buzz/beep?

    Why does my Macbook Air make a single buzz/beep every time I open it or turn it on? It doesn't happen after again after the initial buzz. If I open it after it has been sleeping, it starts up and then there is a buzz. This has only happened since I downloaded iOS Maverick.

    Beeps on startup:
    1 beep = no RAM installed
    2 beeps = incompatible RAM types
    3 beeps = no good banks
    4 beeps = no good boot images.
    5 beeps = processor is not usable

  • Why does my MacBook Pro make background music and video quieter when I am on FaceTime?

    Why does my MacBook Pro make background music and video quieter when I am on FaceTime? When my girlfriend and I are trying to watch a movie on Netflix together while on FaceTime my MacBook Pro always decreases the volume of any background sound on my computer so I can barely hear it. Is there a way to fix this? Thank you!

    Have the same issue too. Apple can you please change this annoying feature. You are making long distance relationships more difficult.
    I like how Facetime was with the old iOS, where nothing was dimmed. OR at least maybe if you could give users the option to turn on or off dimming of facetime.

  • Why does my MacBook Pro make sounds when I put it in my bag?

    I am a first time Mac user and have only had my MacBook Pro for a few weeks.  When I put it my back to carry with me to work, it makes a sound like something is running even though I have shut it down.  Can anyone help me, I dont want to mess up a great laptop.

    I'd make a sound too if i was put into a bag haha.
    Only thing i could think of it it has a mind of its own or your putting your computer to sleep. Try shutting down your mac before placing in your bag and see if that changes things.

  • Does the Macbook Air make a good "Main" Computer?

    I was thinking of selling my Mid-2010 model 17" Macbook Pro in favor of one of the new Macbook Air's rumored (and likely) to be coming out. However, I use my current Macbook Pro as my "Main" computer...schoolwork, surfing the web, watching YouTube videos, facebook, email, and the occasional games like N.O.V.A. 2 and I also have a lot of iTunes songs, Movies, and Apps on there. ...so my question is for those with a current Macbook Air, does it make a good "Main" Computer for what I would intend to use it for? Or should I just stick with my Macbook Pro? (BTW I have only used about 196GB out of my 500GB Harddrive)

    Sticky question. What does "a lot" of music and movies mean?
    Given how much HD you've used up, you could certainly get a 13" MBA and have plenty of HD left over; and I think the latest models, especially if you get as much RAM as you can and such, should be more than powerful enough to do all you want to do and be your primary computer. Of course, you should go to a store and be sure you're okay with less screen real estate to watch those movies and play those games. It could be a bit of a shock to go from that 17" wide to a more modest 13".
    I think the real question you need to ask yourself is less a matter of what you're doing now than what you plan on doing in the future. If there is really nothing you need a 17" 500g Pro for, if you're not going to go into computer graphics, movie making or any of those professions where such a machine is almost essential, then by all means, go MBA. Likewise if you aim to do more traveling. I think you'll find the weight difference alone between the two machines worth the switch, not to mention the beauty of SSD which, currently, you can't get on Pros without paying a lot.

  • Why does my Macbook Pro make every flash drive read only?

    Anybody else having this problem? I can write to a flash drive once on my Macbook Pro. After I remove it, it becomes read-only, but only on my Macbook (I still have read/write access on other computers). Happens with every flash drive, regardless of brand or size. File systems are all FAT 32.

    I'd make a sound too if i was put into a bag haha.

  • Why does the MacBook Pro make a loud heat noise?

    So, when I was playing a game called "Modern Combat Domination" my MacBook Pro make a very loud heat noise? Does that mean I should stop playing the game? I worried. Thank You.

    That means your fan(s) sped up to dispose of the excess heat generated by playing the game. It's a sign that your machine is taking care of itself properly.

  • Why does my Mac air make a lot of noise with the fan inside?

    I bought Mac air one year ago. at the beginning, I satisfied with the product. However, 8 months later, the laptop made a lot of noise from the fan inside. When I I run about 4 or 5 solfwares, it starts warmer and make noise. I feel so unhappy with this. How can I fix it. I bought AppleCare programme for 3 years as well
    Thanks

    The mid 2011 MacBook Air fans are pretty quiet but not silent and since they are the only mechanical decice you'll hear - there's no hard drive or DVD drive to make noise - it is possible that what you hear is normal. On the other hand, fans can go bad - bearings fail and dust an make the blades become unbalanced. None of us can help - you'll need to take the computer to a repair center or Apple Store and let an Apple repair person determine if the fans need replacing or not. If so, your warranty will cover the cost.

  • Why does my Macbook Pro keep randomly shutting off with or without the adapter?

    I had this problem before that my 13-inch Macbook Pro would stop working without the plug, and then it started resetting its clock to 2000 every time i rebooted it until it eventually died altogether. I found out that my data cable was bad and got it replaced.
    Now, it works completely fine except that it will randomly shut off without warning, even if it's plugged in.
    I don't know if it means anything, but I'm currently using a Macbook Air adapter.
    It's actually shut off while I was typing this post. Incredibly frustrating.

    I think (let others bust my chops if I'm wrong) that the MBA uses a 60W MagSafe Power Adapter, whereas the MBP uses an 85W MagSafe Power Adapter. That could be causing problems.

    According to the article (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1237), the latest SMC version of MacBook Air should be 1.73f65 (SMC 1.6). However, I found the SMC version is 1.74f3, which should be MacBook Air (13-inch)'s.
    Can someone tell me why?

  • Why does my Macbook Air only have 64MB of dedicated video memory

    Hello, I created a windows partition on my Macbook Air and after going into my Display settings I see that it only has 64MB of dedicated video memory out of 1696MB. Please tell me how I can fix this problem as I should have much more Dedicated memory from my Macbook air.
    Additional INFO: MacBook Air Early 2014 edition, and has Intel 5000.

    Hey thanks a lot for the quick reply Loner, however, I'm not really sure what you mean (sorry I'm a bit slow when it comes to computers). I checked out your link, and when I do the same steps as in the link by going into screen resolution> advanced> adapter: it shows Total Available Graphics Memory- 1696MB, and Dedicated Video Memory 64MB, but it only uses 64MB, it doesn't use more when it needs to.
    I tried playing GTA 4 on my laptop via bootcamp, and in-game it tells me my laptop is only using 64MB of video memory and the game requires at least 260 or so, and my laptop won't use more (at least I'm pretty sure it is not using more or the game wouldn't give me that mssg).
    Again, thanks for your response, and looking forward to what you have to say, or any other that want to chime in Thanks a lot as always.

  • Why does my MacBook Air give me a blank screen?

    I recently updated my MacBook Air (11-inch, Late 2010) operating system with Mountain Lion (version 10.8.2), each time I open the lid, the screen shows up briefly for about a second or two, then it goes virtually blank except for the very faint image of the log in area. I don't believe the screen light is on, it's just the ambiant light making this visible.  I can't move the cursor to go to it to sign in. The only way to clear this is to hold down the power button until it shuts off. Then reboot. The computer tells me that it was improperly shut down (duh), and asks me to send a report to Apple. This never happened before the most recent update.
    Anyone know of a fix?

    Anyone? Anyone? Help?

  • Why does my MacBook Air's shutting down slow down after the recent update?

    After the newly update OS X Update 10.9.4, the shut down of my MacBook Air slows down. It will stay several seconds more than before the update. This happens every time I try to shut down my MacBook, please meet my problem.

    A Safe Mode boot deletes some system caches that may help.
    Startup your Mac in Safe Mode
    A Safe Mode boot takes much longer than a normal boot so be patient.
    Once you are in Safe Mode, click Restart from the Apple () menu.
    Once your Mac has booted to the desktop, click Shut Down from the Apple () menu to test.
