hey all,



just noticed in the last few days an intermittent high-pitched squeal coming out of my new imac. it's possible to stop it by playing some music through itunes, for instance but i'm not totally sure what's causing it.



has anyone else experienced this?

    Can't say it's happend to me. I'm using external speakers for the iMac though.



    Is the sound coming from the speakers, or from inside the iMac? If the sound stops after playing music in iTunes then it could be a software issue.

    I've also noticed this problem on mine. I am using external speakers as well. Sometimes it'll do it after audio has been played. It's quite odd.
