Macbook air sound problem

Based on the symptoms you describe, a trip to the Apple store genius bar is the best option.

Perhaps this helps?

Give them a telephone call.

Good luck.

I found a solution for this just now (I had this problem).

The static sound is probably not a hardware issue. It comes from the internet browser Google Chrome or, I'm assuming, any other program that utilizes an integrated Adobe Flash Plug-in. The issue is the computer is using the integrated flash plug-in that comes with Chrome rather than an actual Flash Player from the computer.

To fix this (if this is occuring in Chrome), this is what I have done:

1) Open Chrome and type "chrome://plugins/" without the quotation marks into the address bar

2) Disable the Adobe Flash Player

3) Download Adobe Flash Player for Google Chrome (Mac version)

This should fix the problem, as the Flash player is part of the computer and not of the browser.

I have contacted Applecare to tell them to search up on this issue with developers.

I hope this solves your problem, Cheers!

Thanks! Just had the same issue and the fix you provided worked!

This worked like a charm, Thank you for this info.

Same problem here, but disabling and installing only reduces the amount of static heard. iTunes have no issues at all, so it's not a hardware issue.

Any solutions

Just found out that mozilla had no problems at all when playing the same video..... so it's more of a chrome problem i guess???

Hi All
