Why no sound profiles on 10?

Rim - I want sound/notification profiles back
What was wrong with
Normal
Loud
Medium
Silent
Vibrate Only
Phone Calls only

I want the ones like hitting "K" to toggle sound profile to silent. Although without sound profiles there's not much use for a shortcut to it. True speed dialing, one-touch from the home screen is another thing I miss. Or launching an app with just a keystroke. Those are the things that made using a BlackBerry so darn efficient it was addictive.

Download different preset system sound profiles?

I just purchased my new laptop 2 days ago which came with the new Windows 8.1. I have spent several hours scouring the internet for sites that have sound profiles that have already been set to each event, so I don't have to spend the next 11 million years
setting each one manually.
I am quite displeased with the lack of personalization features especially after how much I paid, which a lot of the cost was for this new-fangled OS. There is only one set of system sounds, and it is extremely quiet compared to the rest of the sounds such
as any playing music, Skype message/call alerts, etc. Even at full volume, I cannot hear the system sounds and that is annoying to me. I want to hear when I click on anything or open a link, the familiar crisp and loud "tick" sound from Windows
7, but it is missing.
I only want the sound profiles, I don't need a bunch of picture sets or other graphically related things, just the preset sound files that are ready to go as soon as you download them. This shouldn't have been an issue with new aged technology like
this. I personally think the interface customization options should be much greater, but there is only 12 or 14 factory wallpapers installed, and there is no diversity in the selections. I know its no big deal to download a high resolution wallpaper
from anywhere online, but after paying several hundred dollars for Windows 7 with a new skin on it, one would expect to at least be able to find one or two customization settings that suits their desires, but due to lack of any choices, I have not been able
to become comfortable with my new system.
If anybody has any information on where I might be able to find some sounds, that would be great. Look forward to getting this figured out.
Thanks,
Steele

Did you download these songs from ITMS? or some other source?
Check the bit rate on the songs via itunes and see what it says. It will give you some information as to why the songs sound the way they do.

Why does sound not work on my Mac Air?

Sound Profile - Contact Alerts

RIM, I do like having the ability to set individual ringtones for my contact's phone numbers, but not a huge fan of the Tour having you select a specific ringtone for any messages received from that contact as well, this overrides the alert you have set for any emails or text messages in general. I would prefer for contacts to only have a set ringtone for phone numbers, not messages. I preferred the Sound Profile Options on my Pearl when a text message had the text message sound, or an email had an email sound as I set in my sound profile regardless of the contact.

I realize you don't have to set a custom ringtone for a contact. My issue is I want to have a custom ringtone only for when they call me, but the way the Tour's Sound Profile is set up, you have to set a custom ringtone for both Phone Calls and Messages, you can't do just 1 or the other if you want to.

When I call someone using FaceTime from my mac, they can see me but no hear me. Is there something I need to do to make this happen? I also have an iPad 2 and FaceTime works great on it if I call somebody. Why no sound from my mac FaceTime using a mac pro

When I call someone using FaceTime from my mac, they can see me but not hear me. Is there something I need to do to make this happen? I also have an iPad 2 and FaceTime works great on it if I call somebody. Why no sound from my mac FaceTime using a mac pro and isight camera, mike combo.
If I use google it works. If I use Ichat, it works. If I use skype it works.

This sounds like something similar to https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3388112?start=105&tstart=0.
Try turning down the speak volume (System Preferences->Sound->Output->Output Volume) or the microphone gain (System Preferences->Sound->Input->Input Volume). Do this on both sides of the call.

Automatically change sound profiles

I keep forgetting to turn my phone off silent mode when I leave work. The bf is getting really irratated that never answer my phone. Is there a way (either through the BB or an application) set my phone up to automatically change the sound profile change at a certain time of the day? I have a curve 8530

What sound are you talking about? If you want to use Find My iPhone (which is used for any ios device, like a touch), there is no sound that's part of the equation.

Any ideas why the sound only works on about half of my apps?

The problem of tracks becoming de-linked between iTunes and the music files in your iTunes music folder happens for different reasons - this seems to come up fairly commonly in this forum.
The solution can be to locate each song in the iTunes library, as you mentioned - or, but wait, before I get to that...
trouble finding the original track in your iTunes music folder? maybe look for it under compilations, or if not using the 'group compilations preference' then look in the folder under the songs artist name, but what song artist name iTunes uses depends on what you have in the metedata tag spot for album artist or song artist. Any varyation in artist name spelling, in the menu item 'get info' metadata for any selected individual track will cause iTunes to create that as a separate artist folder in the library, even names like 'various' or any difference at all (even the word 'the' can change where in your iTunes music folder a track gets placed by iTunes). You can try to use the finder function of find file (finder munu item outside of iTunes) to locate hard to find items.
Back to how to re-link any de-linked tracks .
There may be scripts that can help re-link de-linked music files - or, at least provide you a list of such files, Scripts are easy to install and use...
at Dougs Scripts, there is one called iTunes Track CPR that might work
http://dougscripts.com/itunes/scripts/ss.php?sp=itunestrackcpr
or, if you just want a list of de-linked tracks, go to
http://dougscripts.com/itunes/
and find the script called List MIA's, this will create a text file listing all de-linked tracks
if you review the thread at
https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3633708
also the thread at
https://discussions.apple.com/message/17513078#17513078
you may find more insight into dealing with this kind of issue there, although some of that thread may not apply to your case, aspects of it might help.
Good luck.

Why the sound only is reproduced by one of the headphone

Try another set to see if the headphone jack is defective.

Why embed color profiles?

I understand color profiles as translators of the image data for the device to show as it shoudl appear (to me, the human eye)
Why not apply this translation as a conversion (profile tells how the color values shoudl appear, right?) and done with it. Then the monitor should use it's profile to show the file correctly.
The whole idea of "working space" or choosing/applying a profile to an image seems only to apply this translation (the profile).
Why ask? Or why even have an image + profile, when one can simply do image x profile = a single profiled origianl image? In RAW conversion is this not what we are doing? And if so, why have the profile name attached to the file, when it is already converted?
Or did I got it all wrong? When I think I get it, soon I start to see - may be I am not getting it

As this topic (color management) makes me to research and learn continuously, I am curious to understand more about your comment on LAB: "...numerous issues with Lab although the fact it's self defining (until you ask about white point)" What about the white point in LAB? I don't know if that should be another discussion.
In the meantime I got my answers, and a book called "Color Confidence" seems to clarify it well. In fact it has a reddish text box just for the precise question "Why not Lab?" ("why embed profile" is implied in the context). What pinned it well was the statement "Of course, provided a profile is embedded in an image file, the RGB and CMYK values are, in a way, stored as LAB..."
The text can be found in Google books preview: http://books.google.co.in/books?id=XprFp9u4lcAC&q=why+not+lab
what appeals to me now, is this:
The intention is to give real world colors and consistently accross devices (with different color spaces)
To achieve it, it is done through profiles
Original digital image (RGB or CMYK) are easier to edit as RGB or CMYK (user friendly to move those sliders of R G and B) than LAB sliders (are there sliders in LAB? I have not explored)
Though one could have untagged files, adding a profile tries to dictate some consistency to them for further use/editing. If that was not fixed for the digital image, it will be free for each app to use any color profile and make colors look different each time. I am not even talking of display and print profile here, assume they were all set.
My botheration has only been the first step of digital image. Not display and print profiles, that is, why is the original digital not converted to LAB? Now it becomes clear.

Missing basic feature: sound profiles

Less than a week ago, I became an iPhone owner.
At the moment, I'm stumbed because such a simple feature as "sound profiles" (which Nokia has since last decade) isn't available in our brand new iOS5 or App Store.
This is a formal request to Apple Engineers: either let developers create an application as such or create one for us. A good example for you to look at: Android app 'Setting Profiles Lite'.
I wonder if my 4s ever will see the day of light of such an app!

You are not addressing Apple here at all.
If you want Apple to read it then post to their feedback link:

Why would sound distort thru Apple TV

Why would sound thru an Apple TV to either my home theater or whole house audio, as well as playback from an iPad thru the home theater be outrageously distorted? Sound sources include iTunes and a plugin for Indigo 5 (home automation) and the voice Serena for announcements.
Everything was working fine until about three weeks ago, when the distortion started. For several months it had all been working great.
Any help, much appreciated.
Thanks,
Rob Z

AppleTV can output audio via HDMI cable, optical cable (if your amp has an input I'd recommend that) or analogue RCA sockets - these are a pair of red and white sockets - left channel generally goes on the white connector, right channel on the red.
There are separate RCA sockets for component video - the component term applies to video not audio so do check you're connected to the audio sockets not part audio part video.
I assume you have a lead with 2 RCA plugs at each end connecting to AppleTV and amp at the other.
By monotone do you mean sound only from one speaker or that it's the same from both i.e. mono not stereo?
I suspect you mean sound from only one speaker. If you get sound from both with other sources on the amp then that excludes an amp to speaker connection issue or a faulty channel on the amp. If this is the case then you may have connected incorrectly to AppleTV or the amp, only have a single connector on your lead or have a faulty lead. It's unlikely but the input to the amp could also be faulty so if there's a spare input try another or swap for testing purposes.
Do not connect to a phono in on the amp as it is a much more sensitive circuit and will sound loud and distorted. A CD, tuner, aux, tape in, TV or similar input should be fine.
If your sound is mono not stereo then either you have a mono setting on the amp, or have possibly encoded music as mono not stereo.

Sound Profiles - exceptions

On my old Blackberry I was able to edit ring tone profiles with exceptions. For example, I could set it on 'Silent' at night but apply an exception that certain contacts would ring through. That way, if my teens were out, they could call or text me but every other call/text/e-mail would be silent.
Is there a way to do this on the 8530 Curve?
Thanks!

When headset is inserted, why does sound continue to come from the speaker?

When headset is inserted, why does sound continue to come from the speaker?

Sure your inserting the headset into the Headphone Out port and not the In port..?
Also what headset....?
Most PC based headset with built in mic's will not work without using a device like the Griffin iMic.

Suggestion: Manipulation of Sound Profiles within the BB Desktop Manager

How many times have you had to adjust, readjust, and/or set up a new or change a sound profile. It is kludge at best on ANY blackberry device. Wouldn't it be nice to be able to minipulate sound profiles with a click or a drop down on your desktop as well????? Sure would save me time... Just a suggestion
Maybe someone has made this recommendation before.... If so great! If not, let's hear it from the mass-BB-users out there - input??
Thanks!
