[QUOTE="madwolfe, post: 1332151, member: 225048"] This is embarrassing. I went to a post I made about a year ago regarding this problem (Yes, it has taken that long for me to get my s**t together and figure a solution). It was on the Apple Support Communities (I must comment, you guys are much better than there. Didn't get a single response *thumbs up*). Anyway, it seems I didn't get my facts straight. It apparently was not a lightening strike but my own misdeed. While modding my speaker amp, I shorted something and blew the fuses in the house. At this time, the power was on and the amp was connected to my computer. Now, in recollection, I can only assume that current flowed through the cable and the audio jack didn't appreciate having 240V flowing through it. Maybe I melted something, who knows? Anyway, I don't really wish to open her up (If anyone else can comment on the easiness of this venture) so I'll probably go to an Apple Store and fix this for once and for all. [/QUOTE]
