Macbook pro sound not working
It seems that the sound on my macbook pro does not work when watching videos such as those on youtube. Please help.
Here is YouTube's help page if you have no sound on YouTube videos:

Try re-installing Flash player. I'm assuming at this stage that all your other audio works fine, e.g. CDs, DVDs, system sounds, etc...

Macbook Pro Sound not working with HDMi
Hello, I have an early 2013 Macbook Pro on OS X Yosemite (10.10), 3 GHz Intel Core i7, 8 GB 1600 MHz DDR3. If you need more specifics about my computer, please let me know. I use an external LG monitor and separate external speaker, all connected through HDMI (I connect the speakers to the monitor, and the monitor to the computer using an HDMI cable. I find that sometimes the sound just cuts out sporadically and unpredictably. I'll be playing a game, and all of a sudden there is a pop and no sound thereafter. I have to restart the game in order to get the sound back. Sometimes I'm using Chrome and watching Youtube and the same thing. I'll have to restart the program to get sound back. Other times, I have to restart the entire computer because sound is missing from the entire computer.
I've tried switching the sound outputs back and forth from "internal" to "external monitor", with no avail. I've also tried plugging in my earphones (and the sound works), and unplugging them, and the external speaker sound still won't work. After a program or sometimes computer full restart, then the sound will work fine. What can possibly be the cause of this?
Thanks!go to display, preferences, while the tv is hooked up to the computer. two boxes will come up, one for each screen respectively.
on the tv that you want to correct, go to color, then calibrate, and then change the colors through that.
Your tv may also not have the default colors on. you may want to look in your TV's setup menu and make everything go to default so you can start fresh and clean. Some TVs will save setting specific to an input and that would explain the weird colors. -
Macbook Pro sound not working in windows XP
I have a macbook pro and recently installed bootcamp/windows xp. Everything works fine in both windows xp and mac os x, except that I have no sound in windows xp. I get the sound on startup that normally plays, and audio plays fine in OS X, but when i run windows, it doesn't detect any audio device (i tried using both headphones as well as the onboard speakers that come with the computer).
Any suggestions?Reli,
Did you install the drivers from the drivers disc you (hopefully) created during the Bootcamp install? These contain the drivers for sound & graphics etc...
I realise you get the startup sounds already, but do you mean the sounds in Windows? Anyway, Windows can be a bit funny about drivers.
Another thing to check, when in Windows, right click on your My Computer icon, go to properties, then in the new window in one of the tabs - believe it's third one from the left on the bottom row - there should be a device manager button (Sorry, I Don't currently have access to a Windows machine so can't tell you the exact tab name). Open up the device manager. Expand the audio and video devices section (or something like that) and see if the appropriate sound card is listed there - this will indicate if the drivers are installed or not.

The sound on my macbook pro is not working
The sound on my macbook pro is not working. When I increase the sound, the icon appears as if everything is working, but no sound comes from the speakers. Earphones don't work either. I have tried a PRAM reset but at times, this doesn't even work. It's really frustrating having to restart my computer every time I want the sound to work, and even when I do that, theres a 50 50 chance of it working again. It generally happens after my laptop goes to sleep and I wake it up. Has anyone else had this problem and fixed it or even know what caused it?
There are a lot of discussions around the earphone jack but I have checked that. I've tried a PRAM reset which hasn't worked, and my sound output is set to Internal speakers.
HELP!!Hopefully one of these steps should solve the problem.
1. System Preference > Sound > Output > Internal Speakers
Highlight Internal Speakers / Headphones
Make sure Mute is not enabled.
2. Remove the headphone.
If you see red light in the headphone port, plug the headphone
in and out of the port 5 or 6 times to flip the microswitch inside.
Sound output may be stuck in the digital mode.
3. Reset SMC. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3964
Choose the method for:
"Resetting SMC on portables with a battery you should not remove on your own".
4. Applications > Utilities > Audio MIDI Setup
Audio Devices window
Side Bar
Click the Built-in Output.
Under Mute any of the boxes checked? If so, uncheck it. -
The sound on my Macbook Pro does not work.
The sound on my Macbook Pro does not work. When we press the volume buttons, the sound icon pops up, but the bar is full with a small "Does not work" circle below it, and nothing happens when I hit volume up or done. I went into system preferences, but there aren't any options there that I can see to change it.
"Unfortunately, it doesn't provide any help for a MacBook Pro, other than indicating to call Apple Support" (sic).
Au contraire. TS1574's title and affected products are thusly:
"Troubleshooting issues with no audio from built-in speakers on Macs
Products Affected Mac mini, MacBook, MacBook Pro, iMac"
As a result, the instructions of the article are relevant. To be sure, follow those steps, the last of which is to contact Apple.
So, by way of reminder, here are the steps to troubleshoot the audio on your MacBook Pro. There is no red light, so the port is likely fine. Headphones work, so clearly your sound card is fine.
1. Ensure an incorrect version of OS X is not installed. If one is, then reinstall or erase/install after backing up your data.
2. Remove any external audio devices from USB, firewire, etc.
3. Open Sys Prefs > Sound > Output
If Internal Speakers is listed, select it and test again.
If Digital Out is listed, confirm again that all external audio devices and cables have been removed.
If mute is selected, unselect it.
If the volume slider is low, raise the volume.
If the above simply doesn't fix it, the issue may be a corrupted plist. Apple Support might be able to help troubleshoot the issue further, per the last step of TS1574.
I hope it gets resolved for you. Good luck. -
Output volume on my MacBook Pro is not working
My output volume on my MacBook Pro is not working. When I go to "Settings", then "Sounds", then "Output", I can not slide the volume bar at all, or change it in the menu bar?
See if a PRAM reset will solve the problem;

SemakoYuu can try to reactivate your iSight camera by opening up iMessage.. navigate to Preferences/Audio Video,and then click on Camera. IT shoudl be grayed-out if you only have one camera hooked up to your machine. If you have an external camera, then disconnect it from your machine.

The charger cord for my MacBook Pro is not working. This happened before but I do not remember what the tech guy had me do. It was a simple fix....

Macbook pro is not working with Canon pixma iP1500 but has previously. Printer works with an old PC but macbook shows "printer is offline". Any clues?
Hello Betty7,
Please let me take a moment to say "Welcome" to the HP Forums.
I hope you enjoy your experience!
I see that you are having an issue with getting the printer reinstalled.
I suggest that we start off by running the HP Print and Scan Doctor. If the Doctor fails, please let me know where it fails as well as any error codes it may generate.
Thank you for your time.

My MacBook Pro keyboard not working correctly after Win7 bootcamp installation.
Installation went well but when I boot either with OSx or Win it always keeps Windows keyboard.
How can I have Mac keyboard in OS boot and Win keyboard in Win boot?Hi - I have the exact same model as your MacBook and had a few questions as mine is acting up. I upgraded the ram to 8gb (2x 4GB ram) and ever since then my computer has not been running as smoothly and the start up time is horrendous. Have you encountered this problem? And if so how did you fix? What would you advise me do?
I was thinking of reverting back to the original factory 4GB then rebooting the entire computer. Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance!
