Worried about the hum

Hi,
i have ordered a imac core2duo 20" and i'm really worried about the hum that everyone is talking about on the net.
This seems to be similar to the problems the first macbook pro had, and unfortunately i ordered one and had to return back for this. Now there is the possibility that this mac will have the same problem too. I work with audio, have a completely silent room for recording voice and instruments, and i'm ever looking for the quietest mac. I also tryed a macpro and was not completely quiet. So, is the hum present in all model, or just in the 24"? Are the latest shipped affected by this problem? Thanks for any help.

Hi Andrea, I'm in this hospital everyday and all I see are sick people
What you have to realize is that the vast majority of folks who received perfect Macs never come here.
After reading the posts, I worried too. Even though I knew I shouldn't. I'm working on my new iMac 24" right now. Just arrived the other day. There is no hum. There is no noise at all. There are also no dead or stuck pixels.
It is one beautiful Mac!

    This has worked fine with MobileMe with only a couple of minor glitches in the past.
    Any experience doing this the "right" way?

    Relax.  This is completely normal and is not unusual at all.
    It will be reversed.

  • Hi, I am worried about the old Iphones, couldn't we change them for another version? I have my Iphone 3, love it, but now I am feeling out of the picture. The phone works perfect...Is there any plan to do so? like recycling?

    You can purchase any model (currently sold) iPhone that you desire.
    What's the big deal or so complicated about figuring that out?

  • Should I worry about the following warning?

    I have the following:
    public class Record
      private RecordMetadata                metadata;
      private List<Field<? extends Object>> data;
      (snip)
      public <T> void setValue( String fieldName, T value )
        int fieldIndex = this.metadata.getFieldIndex( fieldName );
        this.data.set( fieldIndex, new Field<T>( value ) );
      public <T> T getValue( Class<T> clazz, String fieldName )
        int fieldIndex = this.metadata.getFieldIndex( fieldName );
        Field<? extends Object> field = this.data.get( fieldIndex );
        return (T) field.getValue( );
      }In the last line (return in getValue) I'm getting the following warning (as reported by Eclipse):
    Type safety: The cast from capture-of ? extends Object to T is actually checking against the erased type Object
    What does this exactly mean? Should I worry about it? Should I do what I'm trying to do in another way?
    Thanks in advance, best regards
    Jose

    public <T> T getValue( Class<T> clazz, String
    ng fieldName )
    int fieldIndex = this.metadata.getFieldIndex(
    dex( fieldName );
    Field<? extends Object> field = this.data.get(
    get( fieldIndex );
    return (T) field.getValue( );
    You are not making use of the Class object that you're passing to
    getValue. You could use it to get rid of the warning:
    return clazz.cast(field.getValue());

  • I'm really worried about the security of my information. I have just turned on and tried to set up my new Iphone5. It keeps asking for my ex partners login details? She has never had access to my account??

    I really dont understand how this works ....? Is this not a helpline??

    No, this is community forums.
    Did you and your ex ever share an iCloud account or Apple ID?
    When is it asking for the info?
    Did you plug your phone into your computer to sync with iTunes? If so, it's nothing to worry about probably, it's probably trying to grab and app or something from your iTunes library from her account.

  • Want to buy MacBook Pro 13" (new Mac-user). Worried about the Core 2 Duo

    I'm really eager to buy a MacBook Pro 13" right now, but core 2 duo feels pretty outdated, I remember my computer from 2006 having that CPU.
    My greatest worry is that the computer will feel out-dated pretty fast, like for how many years will it be able to survive OS-updates? I really want to buy one now, but I don't know if i should wait. Do any of you mac-users feel it to be sluggish in any way?
    Appreciate your help.

    i don't have a lot of experience with this as we just made the switch about a month ago. it's mostly my wife's macbook pro and i wanted her to get a toshiba with i5 processor but she wanted to get the mac. i found this on cnet, which made me feel better about the core2. remember it is running apple stuff which isn't a drain on it like microsoft stuff:
    The speed-bumped Core 2 Duo processor at the heart of the MacBook Pro isn't part of the 2010 Core i3, i5 and i7 processor family--it's a holdover from last year, and that's a bit of a shame. However, most mainstream users will find perfectly adequate performance in these Core 2 Duos--multitasking, video editing/playback, and photo and graphics work can all be handled, sometimes surprisingly well. *In our benchmarks, the 2010 MacBook Pro 13-inch outperformed the Core i3 Asus U30Jc and came close to the souped-up Core i5 Sony Vaio Z116GX/S. Against those laptops, it actually came out on top in multitasking by a decent margin, although some of the programs we use for our benchmark tests, such as iTunes and Photoshop, are very Mac-friendly.* The 15-inch Core i7 Spring 2010 MacBook Pro still outperforms this 13-incher by a considerable margin, but it also costs $1,000 more in the configuration we tested.

  • Macbook Pro C2D 15,4" on order - Should I worry about the display?

    I have ordered the new Macbook Pro C2D 15,4" and I read the numerous threads here about the display quality. I have just selled my CD Macbook Pro 15,4" so I want to ask you all here, is there a difference between the new and the previous model, or do you think that both are grainy?
    I personally found the display of the Macbook Pro CD very good and I hope that the new is at least as good as that one.

    My advice to you is check it out before you buy it. I've gone to 4 different apple stores or resellers and all the ones I've seen on display have unevenly back lit displays. You can tell the cd from the cd2 from the lighting. Its very obvious as you take a look at them side by side. You'll notice what i mean if you look at the very bottom corners of the display. There is more light coming through than the rest of the screen and this is very annoying. There also seems to be burn marks at the very corners, they are faint and gray but also noticable. In fact there seems to be a bar of light that looks like a reflection of the macbook pro, but is actually uneven lighting all the way across the bottom. Definately bad. I went through 3 17" macbook pros cd2 at the store and all 3 of them exhibited the same uneven lighting. So then i went with a 15" but that too had the same problems. I'm going to wait it out for another month or so. I love the macbook pros, but I want to spend my money on a good product.

  • Everyone Stop Worrying About The iPhone 5 It's Not Coming Out This Year!

    Many have been saying, don't buy the Verizon iPhone 4 because in 6 months it will be outdated by the iPhone 5, this is completely false! Just because Apple has introduced a new iPhone every year doesn't mean it couldn't skip a year, I mean it's only happened 4 years in a row not 50. Think about it, Apple has a new product, the iPad, and with many other tablets trying to catch it, it is much more likely that this summer at the Apple Conference we will see an iPad 2 and a new software upgrade, iOS 4.5. Think about it the iPhone 4 has been the most successful iPhone to date and now they are introducing it to 93 million more people! I think they can survive a year without releasing a new iPhone. Also Apple mentioned that this iPhone didn't have 4G because of "current chip technology", do you really think they will have that all sorted out and ready to go in just 6 months?! No way! Apple cares too much about battery life, and their whole problem with 4G is that right now it uses too much battery life, so expect them to take another year to fix all that and test it out, remember AT&T doesn't even have a 4G network yet. The most you could expect is a price cut on the iPhone 4. However if by some miracle they do release a new iPhone this year it will not be what everybody is thinking, it will be like what the 3GS was to the 3G. It won't really add anything new at all, and your iPhone 4 will still be able to do everything that it can do. So don't be afraid, go buy the iPhone 4 February 10th, and 20 months later (October 2012) you can upgrade to the iPhone 4G, only 3 months after it will have come out.
    Also I have been seeing threads of people saying that Verizon will get new iPhones in February and AT&T will get them during the summer before Verizon, this is also completely false, the only reason the iPhone is coming out right now is because Apple and Verizon wanted to make the iPhone available to it's customers as soon as possible, right when Apple's contract with AT&T was up. So this is just a special thing, after this new iPhone's will be released on both AT&T and Verizon at the same time during the summer.

    First of all, I think we can all agree that the home button isn't going anywhere (atleast on the iphone, the screen is too small for 4/5 finger gestures, plus you wouldn't be able to use the phone with one hand anymore), not only would that be the stupidest decision ever but every website that mentions it links it back to a site called BGR which claims they got "an exclusive tip"... sure. Also have you seen the code for the new iOS 4.3? It shows the devices: iPhone 3,3 iPhone 4,1 iPhone 4,2 iPad 2,1 iPad 2,2 and iPad 2,3 don't you think that means iPhone 3GS, iPhone 4 (GSM), iPhone 4 (CDMA), iPad 2 (GSM), iPad 2 (CDMA), and iPad 2 (WiFi)? Also look at the screenshot taken from the iPad, it shows that multitouch gestures are optional, how can they be optional if you lose the home button?
    Anyway, even if I'm wrong about all of this, there is no point in waiting 6 months for the next iphone because it won't really be the "next" iphone it will just be a slight update like the 3GS was, and maybe not even that, and the iPhone 4 will be able to do everything that it can do, and the worse part is that you will not be able to upgrade to the "real" next iphone (2012) because you will have signed a new 2 YEAR contract! Atleast if you get the iPhone 4 on February 10th, you will be able to upgrade in 20 months (October 2012) only 3 months after the iPhone 2012 is released.
    Granted removing the home button from the iPhone is a bit of a stretch but you never know with Apple. The versioning in the iOS is -1 of version of the actual hardware, iPhone 3,x (code) = iPhone 4 (hardware).  iPhone 4,x (code) = iPhone 5 (hardware).  If read in the engadget article it states, "two new-generation iPhones (4,1 and 4,2) and three iPads (2,1; 2,2; and 2,3)."  That mean iPhone 5 and iPad 2 is coming to AT&T and Verizon
    It's very plausible that it could be something like a 4GS but when Apple increments the version number by a whole number in the code it normally means a new hardware devices not an updated one.
    I'm just scratching my head on why Verzion would announce the iPhone availability when the release of a new iPhone is going to happen in the matter of a few months.  Why not just wait till July and announce the availability?  Is it just greed or stupidity on Verizon/Apple part?
    If the version of the iOS is -1 of the actual hardware, then why is the iPad 2: 2,1; 2,2; 2,3? Also, even if Apple is going to release a new iPhone in a matter of months, the reason they are releasing an iPhone 4 right now is because they wanted to start selling an iPhone on Verizon as soon as the AT&T contract was up. Why wait 6 months to make money when you can do it right now? This is also why Apple made sure that the contract they signed with Verizon was not exclusive, that way they could start selling to T-Mobile and Sprint whenever they wanted, they didn't want to make the same mistake they made with AT&T.

  • When i try to sync my phone, it says i should get ios5.1 but will lose my data except basic settings. How do i back it all up before getting new software if it wont let me sync? I am worried about the photos.

    I have been trying to sync my phone, but it says i need to get the new software ios 5.1, but in doing this I will lose some things purchased on my phone which arent on itunes, and I should transfer them It also says something about apps and that i will only be able to store basic settings like contacts and texts. How can i back my phone up before installing this software update, and what do i do about my photos?
    Thanks

    Read the User's Guide... it covers how to backup and sync the device as designed.

  • HT4061 my iphone was stolen last night and i am worried about the next person accessing my personal information. How can i protect myself

    i am worried some one will be able to see my photos, bank deatails and phone numbers to steal my identity.
    i loged into find my iphone last night but the device was switched off straight away i saiod to block the phone and ease it but i am really concerned some one can access my personal information

    Once the device is gone it is too late to protect yourself.
    Hopefully your device was setup to auto-lock and had a passcode, otherwise all data is accessible to anyone that picks it up.
    Frankly, the most likely scenario is that the device has already been restored as new and is or has been sold for quick cash.

  • Firefox starts with old tabs and windows I had visited ages ago, not a new blank window. It is opening up a tab containing a credit card transaction I had completed last week, so I am worried about the security risks your browser is posing right now.

    Few times a week, ff opens after boot with random tabs from history open. But today it kept opening the same set of windows (not tabs) from random points of time from history. It stopped after I closed 4 of them and browsed a bit with the last and closed it with tabs open. Then it resumed opening the previously saved tabs. The usual situation with tabs occurs generally after I close firefox with no tabs and no websites loaded and I shut down the computer.
    I do have a large amount of history, I generally clear only sensitive sites from history by searching and clicking forget this site.

    Dear Colbabomb; thankyou for your links.
    So far, I looked at your first solution, Revo Uninstaller and it gives you a 30 free trial. Ergo, it will eventually cost money so I'm leery of using those kinds of programs in general, meaning most "free trials" have unwanted strings attached and often are big probs to get rid of later. Perhaps you can assure me that it is easy and very user friendly, before I proceed. And I already ran malwarebytes and it found nothing tho the program still can't be uninstalled. I downloaded Adw Cleaner and during the install, my Norton's security popped up and warned that there were (low risk) threats with two of their "other offers" and i hadn't even actually clicked to agree either of them. Nonetheless, Norton warned me against the "lyrics finder" and "deal ply." In fact, there was a box already with an x in it, saying that you are accepting deal ply if you x on "next." Well, except I unchecked that box before clicking on next, yet when it went to fully install, it still showed that it was adding itself; so, just before the install was 100% completed, I had to abort the whole thing. I really do hope your other suggestions are programs that you personally know that they don't try and trick you. But right now, I would not suggest Adw Cleaner to anyone. I even read the fine print about what they will try and install and how to decline and it still tried sticking stuff on that i believed I had declined. Anyways, i have to leave now, shall pick up later this evening, if my pc is still functioning.

  • IPhone 4 - Love the new design, BUT worried about the antenna.

    I want an iPhone4, it looks great, and has everything I would want. What worries me is the fact that the antenna is on the outside of the phone, all around the edges. I remember that most radiation from cell phones comes from the antenna, where the signal is received. Does this mean the radiation levels on the new iPhone will be much higher since your hand is fully in contact with stainless steel band?

    Message was edited by: Andy Katz

    I don't think Apple will commit such a grave error in phone design to have a device with the antenna touching someone's ear.
    I've looked at the pictures located here http://www.apple.com/iphone/gallery/
    Looking at the 2'nd pic, in the lower exterior metal band there is a space that separates the lower metal band from the top metal band. The same size and form corresponds with the location of previous Iphone's antenna allocated space.
    This can be double checked by going to FCC's test https://gullfoss2.fcc.gov/oetcf/eas/reports/ViewExhibitReport.cfm?mode=Exhibits& RequestTimeout=500&calledFromFrame=N&applicationid=573413&fccid=%27BCG-E2380A%27 and verifying the 11a SAR report file.
    At page 27, on the GSM 1900Mhz, having the device parallel and touching the face, the value is 0.73 SAR. Using it in a tilted 15 degrees position (ear touch, lower part about 2 inches away from face), the SAR is 0.30. If the antenna were to be continuous all the way around, the SAR values would not change since the top part is in contact with the ear at all times in both tests.
    I hope someone can confirm how the antenna is actually used in the new iPhone, I'm interested too since to me at least, having an antenna emitting so close to the ear means No Buy, antenna away from top = possible buy.
