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?

Okay so I noticed a week or two ago that there was something lose on the inside of my iPhone 5s and ever since then when my phone vibrates sometimes there is this weird noise. It sounds almost like a cracking noise from the inside or a weird electrical noise. I think something is wrong with the vibrating part. Does anyone know if this is fixable or what it is?
Hello ashliz17,
After reviewing your post, it sounds like the phone makes a cracking noise when it vibrates. I would recommend that you read these articles, they may be helpful in troubleshooting your issue.

Have a nice day,

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.

My headphone audio output on imac makes a very loud low freg buzzing sound.
I have my Imac hooked up to my home studio for recording music. It is currently hooked up to my high quality rane mixer, which has superior sound quality. But for some reason every time I plug a cord into the headphone jack to my mixer, TV or anything else from the Imac headphone jack, it comes out with a very loud low frequency humming/buzzing noise even on very low volume settings, even with the bass turned all the way down. It is extremely annoying. Does anyone else have this problem? I would expect a little more from apple products. Especially with something simple like this, since these machines are mostly designed for video/audio production. . I have tried switching my cords around and changing my setup for months now. No luck. And, no, my imac does not have an optical out and I think that would probably solve the whole problem. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. Thank you for reading.
Welcome to the Apple Discussions!
Do you have your recording equipment isolated from the computer equipment? These buzzes and rumbles are usually easily solved by making sure that your audio equipment is plugged into a different electrical circuit than the iMac.
However, yes your iMac does indeed have digital audio. I do not know of an Intel model that does not have digital audio. The audio ports do both analog and digital audio. To use digital audio you need a Toslink cable with a miniplug adapter on the iMac end of the cable.
Such as this;

My iMac will start beeping like a stuck key. It started this after updating to mountain lion. and after I updated memory to 20 gigs (2x 8gigs, 2x 2gigs)
I have a seagate thunderbolt back up drive attached.
The beeping starts at random times even when the computer ( and me too) are sleeping.
Help!!!
Thanks

Why Did My iMac Hard Drive FAIL?
I am majorly upset right now.
My iMac 2009, 21.5" (4GB Ram, 500GB Hard drive) computer that was practically unused since it was in storage for 2 years in my basement while I went out of town on business- suddenly had a Hard Drive Failure for no reason! Since the Warranty was expired on Apple Care, I took it in a Mac store - only to be told by the repair man that the hard drive needed a replacement. He did quick testing, and these were the results:
Ran MRI and everything passed
Reset pram and SMC
Ran storage diagnostics
Proposed Resolution: Replace hard drive
Total cost: A WHOPPING $229.00 plus tax for the hard drive plus labor costs. When I asked if I could just upgrade to a 1TB Hard drive since I was shelling out money anyways, Apple flat-out REFUSED- saying they couldn't put a warranty on a new hard drive, just the replaced one. Sounds like complete BS to me!
Further more, I would like to know how the **** this happened! A few times when the iMac was on the table and running, I lifted it up and clunked it back down a bit rough to readjust it- but it continued to work for a few more days. I doubt that would ruin a hard drive. I own a Macbook 13" that I clunk around all the time, the hard drive has never failed. Suddenly my hardly-used iMac that worked out the box when I first started using it again suddenly has a random hard drive malfunction a week in??? And now I'm out $250.00. I just feel jipped. I thought Apple products are meant to last. Apparently not. The guy said "Well it's a four year-old computer". Yeah but I only used it one year and then it was in storage! So whose to say THIS hard drive won't fail as well?
Why did this happen?Hard Drive Warning (all makes and models)
Ironically but logical, new hard drives are far more fragile than one that has been working for several months or a couple years. So beware in your thinking that a new hard drive translates into “extremely reliable”!
Hard drives suffer from high rates of what has been termed "infant mortality". Essentially this means new drives have their highest likelihood of failing in the first few months of usage. This is because of very minor manufacturing defects or HD platter balancing, or head and armature geometry being less than perfect; and this is not immediately obvious and can quickly manifest itself once the drive is put to work.
Hard drives that survive the first few months of use without failing are likely to remain healthy for a number of years.
Generally HD are highly prone to death or corruption for a few months, then work fine for a few years, then spike in mortality starting at 3-4 years and certainly should be considered end-of-life at 5-7+ years even if still working well. Drives written to once and stored away have the highest risk of data corruption due to not being read/written to on a regular basis. Rotate older working HD into low-risk use.
The implication of this is that you should not trust a new hard drive completely (really never completely!) until it has been working perfectly for several months.
Given the second law of thermodynamics, any and all current mfg. HD will, under perfect storage conditions tend themselves to depolarization and a point will be reached, even if the HD mechanism is perfect, that the ferromagnetic read/write surface of the platter inside the HD will entropy to the point of no viable return for data extraction. HD life varies, but barring mechanical failure, 3-8 years typically.
Data redundancy (copies) makes all HD crashes inconsequential, an irrelevancy.
There are only two kinds of hard drives, those that have failed, and those that will fail, regardless of quality of manufacture.
Any Macbook or desktop should be idealized as a working platform computer system, containing all your applications, documents, and weekly-use necessary files; and all media files such as ‘big-data’ (music/PDF collections/video/pictures), unless directly needed in the near future, should be kept off the computer and on external storage USB or likewise bare hard drives.
Never consider any computer a data storage device at any time under any circumstance, rather a data creation, sending, and manipulation device. Anyone who thinks data is safe on any computer, even copied upon multiple partitions is making a mistake that will, without fail, strike.
Never backup your data exclusively upon magnetic hard drives or flash storage, nor consider same since magnetic storage degrades over time, roughly 3-8 years, even under ideal storage conditions. -
Power Mac G4 Cube! Why Didn't It Make A Bigger "Splash"?
I'm feeling nostalgic and want to discuss the now legendary (at least in my eyes) Power Mac G4 Cube. I remember this computer being something more than just "a computer". I saw it as Apple really pushing the boundaries of engineering art and design. Yes Steve blew everyone away with the introduction of the iMac in 1998, but personally I think the Cube at the beginning of the new millenium was when Apple really kicked hardware innovation into a higher gear.
But what puzzles me is why didn't the Cube make a bigger splash in the market than it did? Today most won't even know what it is except for the true Apple fans of the last 15 years. Usually Apple introduces a design language and it runs for a few years before any major revision or retirement. The Cube was introduced and was only around for a year.
I'd just like to know your thoughts on the Cube (maybe personal memories of owning one, if you did) in general and why it didn't make any real impact.
One question to ask would be why didn't the G4 Cube naturally evolve into a G5 Cube like the rest of Apple's lineup at the time?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_Mac_G4_CubeHi, I seiously lusted after one, but insisted on waiting for the 500 MHz model, by the time they finally got the 500 out, I had spent the money, by the time I had the Money they were gone.
I think there were several reasons...
There werent many Mac users then.
Many thought a real computer had to be BIG.
The lack of upgradability was seen as a drawback by many.
It cost as much as a big computer of a different ilk.
One question to ask would be why didn't the G4 Cube naturally evolve into a G5 Cube like the rest of Apple's lineup at the time?
Same reason there were no G5 Laptops, mostly heat issues, though laptops had an additional power/battery problem... whole reason Apple went to Intel chips. -
When using FaceTime, my iMac makes noises. It dings like I am receiving an email and sometimes sounds like a busy signal, but this is while I am talking to someone. Any suggestions?
Dear Mr. Toad (my all-time favorite ride at Disneyland ;-) ..
Thanks so much for your detailed reply.. my netbook is in the bedroom, turned off.. I (so far) only use it in the evening, in the bedroom.. I've saved your response, and will try your suggestions, and let you know if they solve the problem I described. I really appreciate you taking the time to post such a detailed reply..
I can't answer your Thunderbird "configuration" questions, because I'm in the living room, using the crap Vista laptop, on which I plan to install Thunderbird, and then take Windoze Mail out in the street and drive over it a few times.. I'll get back to you one way or the other, and let you know if your instructions solved the problem, or not..
I don't understand why Thunderbird "out of the box", so to speak, simply doesn't forward HTML emails with embedded graphics, (like Outlook Excess, and Winblows Mail do).. without having to go through those steps. I personally HATE HTML email, but over the years, it's become more and more prevelant.. so it's a problem I must fix..
Thanks again..

Why will my Imac (1 yr old) only print the full document in half a page?
Why will my IMAC only print the full document in half a page? All updated IOS downloads. My Laptop Mac does not do this, so I feel it is not the printer, but the actual computer. The full document is printed, it is just half a page, other half is blank. This is presenting a huge problem for school and also when I need to print a shipping label ( which I do often) for my business. I have several printers and it performs the mistake on all of them. Thank you!
Make sure the scale in the Print window is set to 100%

My macbook pro w/ retina makes a funny noise! Some kind of bird sound or water splash.
My macbook pro w/ retina makes a funny noise! Some kind of bird sound or water splash.
Maybe once every hour or 2 hours.Rather than uploading the file, and await our responses, why not take the product back to Apple? My guess is that you accidentally changed an alert sound but, since you claim you didn't do anything untoward, who knows.

Why is my iMac is running Slow?
Sure, my iMac is old (bought it around March 2006) but up until about November it was running just fine for our normal home use. Then it came to a screatching halt. With all apps closed, it still takes 5 to 10 minutes just to open the TextEdit app. That is if it opens at all. I hear what sounds like the hard drive running all the time. Opening Mail, or iTunes, or iPhoto is impossible.
It is running OSX 10.6.8. Processor = 2 GHz Intel Core Duo. Memory = 2 GB 667 MHz DDR2 SDRAM.
It's a 250 GB Hard Drive and has 16 GB Availale.
We have Microsoft Office for Mac installed and it does its regular Updates just like Apple does so in theory it is up-to-date.
I have looked at other osts here on the subject but other than deleting items from my StartupItems list under System Preferences / Accounts / Login Items, I am not sure what to do. Someone mentioned Mac Keeper's real time antiviruse but I can not find that on my iMac.
Are there other files that can be deleted - i.e. Lg files? Under \Library \ Updates there are a bunch of folders with names like "041-1570" and "zzzz041-1846" that contain .dist and .pkg files. i.e. iTunesAccess.pkg, 041-1846.English.dist, JavaForMacOSX10.6.pkg and Safari5.1.4SnowLeopard.pkg to name a few.
Are these just log files for item installed during Software updates, and Can these be deleted?
What else can I do to resolve this speed issue. Would cleaning off more Hard Drive space help? I was thinking of moving iTunes and/or iPhoto to an external HD. But hesitate to go through that effort if it will not help solve the problem.
Thanks in advance for your help.

iTunes: How to move the library to an EHD
iPhoto: How to move the Library to an EHD
It is important that the External Hard Drive is formatted as Mac OS Extended (journaled).
And also make sure that all is working to your Satisfaction before Deleting anything.

when i plug in my ipod to my PC it makes a sound like it doesnt accept it. on the ipod, it says connect to itunes because it was disabled many times. why wont it connect?P.S I know nothing about this kind of stuff
Disabled
Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
iOS: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen
If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
For how to restore:
iTunes: Restoring iOS software
To restore from backup see:
iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
If problem what happens or does not happen and when in the instructions? When you successfully get the iPod in recovery mode and connect to computer iTunes should say it found an iPod in recovery mode.
