|
|
Lately, I've been experiencing these little "blips" and skips in the audio whenever I look up Youtube videos, listen to music on Grooveshark...pretty much anything with audio. I have already tried booting up Garageband and playing a track on there...didnt work.
I have the Mac Mini 2011 (Easy access to the RAM)
Anybody have suggestions as to how I can fix this? Its annoying and I really like listening to music!
On a side note, I did upgrade the RAM myself. Upgraded from 2GB to 8GB, but experienced no problems. That was about 6 months ago, and this just started happening. |

Are you running the latest version of Flash?
You might also try going into Audio Midi Setup and changing the audio output to 2ch 24-bit.
Repairing your disk permissons might also be beneficial. _________________ 2011 Mac mini with 8GB of RAM

Are you using Airport, or a cable, to connect to your router? _________________ Martin at HeadSpin HD now on Blu-ray |

Try a cable, instead of Airport, at least temporarily, to see if the problem goes away. _________________ Martin at HeadSpin HD now on Blu-ray |

To repair permissions, use Disk Utility and select the appropriate option.
