My audio on face time won't work with external speakers plugged in

I have a fairly new iMac. My husband bought me some Bose speakers and when I try to face time with the speakers plugged in I do not get any audio.

Facetime has not been available on iPads purchased in the UAE for years.
Although Facetime can work in the UAE on devices which do have it I don't know why you have not been able to use it in iOS 7.

HT201250 My 10.7.3 Time Machine won't work with external disks. Worked fine with Snow Leopard, and even Lion 10.7.1

My 10.7.3 Time Machine won't work with external disks. Worked fine with Snow Leopard, and even Lion 10.7.1
I have tried everything, even buy new external disk from different manufacture.
If I cant get a fix soon, I am downgrading back to SnowL.

Still no luck. I tried all the tricks, reconfiguring TM (remove selected disk option, and re-setting it, and trying different disks). Tried new combo updater, and the newer TM update after that. Tired two different disks too (one is my older firewire WD MyBook 1TB, and my brand new 3tb Seagate GoFlex USB... either one plugged into back of computer - no intermediary devices). I did get the TM buddy wiget and it produced the following log, from the last attempt, where I setup lots of exclusions so that backup quantity was small (under 10gb). Still it failed to complete. Here is that log, for what it is worth:
Starting standard backup
Backing up to: /Volumes/TM-Disk/Backups.backupdb
9.56 GB required (including padding), 911.15 GB available
Waiting for index to be ready (101)
Copied 0 files (0 bytes) from volume Mac HD.
Backup canceled.
To prove a point, I will take these disks are run them on my other Tiger and Snow Leopard laptops to prove TM works fine on those with these disks. But I fear the only options are to either have my tech re-install LION... or just have him reinstall SL instead. Im at wits end.

HP 4330s SRS Premium Sound not working with External Speakers

And this is my second topic and rant!
The SRS Premium sound driver doesn't work with USB Speakers.
It doesn't work with Bluetooth speakers either!
In other words it only works with the Laptop speakers.
ARE YOU KIDDING ME!
SRS Premium sound for Deeper Bass and Clear sound enhancement bla bla bla now in you HP Laptop
but ONLY with your LAPTOP SPEAKERS!
ARE YOU KIDDING ME!
DEEP BASS on these cell phone speakers!!! Really???
Why doesn't the SRS Premium Sound driver work with external speakers!
I believe I have used SRS Sandbox before and ALL THE SOUND was directed to that driver and it worked with everything!
WHY DOESN'T YOUR HP DRIVER WORK WITH EXTERNAL SPEAKERS!
Is everyone in HP a bloody RETARD?
FIX YOUR DRIVERS!
End of rant!

Oh BTW {Content Removed: rant} http://www.srslabs.com/landing.aspx?id=693#23
23. Will the SRS Audio Sandbox work with my USB speakers or Bluetooth speakers?
Yes, the current version, 1.6.6.0 will work. If you have a previous version that is not working with these speakers, please upgrade to this version.
Do you have anything else to share with me {Content Removed: rant}

Macbook Pro won't boot with external HDD plugged

I have a weird problem. My late 2008 Macbook Pro won't start with external HDD plugged either FW or USB... The screen stays white until I unplug it and then the Apple logo is there.
Anyone know any solution for this? Or anyone have the same problem

yeah I had the exact same issue with one of my 750GB externals too. I just left it for a while (about an hour or so) and it was fine..
I believe its so slow because the system is indexing the drive, which can be a very slow process if the drive is big, has a complex folder-hierarchy, and/or is fragmented.
Does the hard-drive appear quite quickly in Finder once OS X has started up? if its slow it may confirm what I've just said.

My iPhone no longer works with external speakers

Since upgrading to the 3.0 software, my iPhone (the original 2G model) no longer works with the speakers I have, or with my DVD/surround system. Previously it worked fine! Has anyone else experienced this. I'm so disappointed, as I use the speakers/surround system a lot to listen to music.
If anyone could help, I'd greatly appreciate it

OK, I just clicked restore to backup in itunes and after restoring the iphone, it seems to be connecting and working through the speakers now. Whew!

Face Time Won't Work

Face time quit working. Gives me a "face time failed message" every time. Have iPad 2 . Help?

Restart the iPad by holding down on the Sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut Off. To power up hold the Sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time (for about 10-15 seconds) until the Apple logo appears (ignore the red slider), then let go of the buttons.

5.1 sound won't work with computer speakers, not sure

Hi, I am having problems getting 5. surround sound to work with my SB Li've! 5. card and Cambridge Soundworks DTT3500 Dolby Digital system. The speaker system works fine, I've tested it with my DVD player through an optical cable hookup. The Dolby Digital light is supposed to light up when its receiving a Dolby Digital 5. signal, and when connected straight to the DVD player via optical cable, it does light up.
But, when connected to my Li've! 5. card, it does not light up. I am using CyberLink PowerDVD which supports 5. sound, and I'm using the Digital DIN port in the back of the speaker system. The cable goes from the orange digital out port on the SB Li've! 5. card to the Digital DIN port on the Cambridge speaker system. The hook up should allow transmission of 5. signal, so maybe something is wrong software side. I might be missing a setting or something, on the player maybe or elsewhere. Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks.

I have been in the computer repair business for over years and work on main frame computers for the government and there are companies that back their products and there are companies that do not. Creative, in my opinion, is not a company that likes to back their hardware or software drivers. I remember in the old Sound Blaster 6 days of DOS and conflicting IRACs and not getting any help with their auto answer service. In my opinion, one of the reasons they have all this software driver issues, is they more than likely use another source to write the software and therefore the software writers do not talk to the hardware developers. Believe me this is very common as I see it all the time with the government contracted computer companies and their special software. What a mess. If? software developers do not talk to their hardware people on known issues then we get the results. Part of the problem is us consumers and our willingness to except anything when it comes to computers. I read of people staying up all night trying to resolve one little issue and will still except a degraded product. Do not think for a second these companies do not know this and use this backwards stupidity to their advantage. I would never give any computer product that much of my time because my time is money as well.
Anyway, why do we all buy Creative? The answer is very simple. If you have ever herd the newest X-Fi sound cards with its 24 bit crystallizer on a motherboard it likes, well there is nothing like it. I have mine (I own this sound card as well) hooked up to a high end stereo and if my wife would let me I could blow out my windows in my study. That is when it is working and not squealing. The problem of course is we must get this wonderful sounding card on a computer it likes to work without squeaking or squawking. Lets face it, Creative is the only game in town when it comes to sound and I love great sound. shellback

MacBook Spring 2010 Snow Leopard won't work with External Samsung Monitor

Hi,
I have a MacBook I purchased about a month ago and it's not working with my Samsung SyncMaster 940 BW. I am using Mini DisplayPort out with a Mini DisplayPort-to-VGA adaptor which goes into my SyncMaster Monitor. I have tried rebooting, and also playing around with my laptop resolution, but otherwise I have no idea what to do about this.
I've read on the discussions that this is a known Snow-Leopard issue but I thought I might post to see if this has been resolved. I run all the updates but the monitor still isn't working?

A better place to post would be in the The MacBook Pro Display (2008 and Later) forum:

Strange issue with external monitor, only working when external speakers plugged in (using Thunderbolt to VGA adaptor)

Hey – I am having a very strange issue with my external monitor; where it only works if my external speakers are plugged in and connected.
I am using a late 2011 Macbook pro, running Mavericks 10.9.4, along with an MBox 2 (USB Audio Interface), and two powered speakers (KRK Rokit 5). This setup has had no issues. I have just acquired an external monitor (Benq T2200HD), which I am using with a thunderbolt to VGA adaptor (a cheap Chinese knockoff adaptor).
To start - I plugged the monitor in with the thunderbolt adaptor, and it powers up and works fine. However, there is a nasty buzz coming from the speakers. I did some research and it looks like a simple ground loop issue. I did a bit of troubleshooting, and this is where things get weird.
What I found is - If I unplug the MBox, the monitor loses signal from the computer (displaying ‘No Signal Detected!’). Further, if I keep the MBox plugged in, however unplug both the cables from the MBox to the speakers, the monitor loses signal. It doesn’t matter if the speakers are turned off, however they need to be plugged in (or the monitor loses signal). Weirder still, I can unplug the MBox, however the monitor will work if I plug in the speakers through my macs headphone jack.
Simply put, the monitor only works if there is a direct connection between the computer, the speakers, and the power source. What is going on here? Is the monitor grounding through the computer port, to the speakers (I don’t know how this works, is this possible?). Could it somehow be the cheap VGA adaptor I am using?
Some other information:
- Everything is plugged into the same multi-box for power. I have tried plugging things into separate sources, and the result is the same.
- If I unplug the thunderbolt adaptor, then the speaker noise disappears straight away.
- The ground noise doesn’t appear in my headphones, which are plugged into the MBox.
Any information would be great – am I missing something here, or is this genuinely weird?

Well, I went back into Best Buy to test on 3 other laptops (2 Asus, and their floor model for this Sony). It seems to be doing the same problem so at least I was able to rule out broken hardware issue on my particular laptop.
Here's what I did to test:
Since I couldn't really install Adobe Premiere on their machines, I used the DVIO software (http://www.carr-engineering.com/dvio.htm) and a 5 min clip I captured. I transferred onto their machines, hooked up my Sony D8, and attempted to play the video. It would play for 15 seconds and then stop and jitter with a loud noise (like it does on my laptop). I even tried changing each machine's firewire driver to the legacy one and same results. I pulled a brand new 4 pin to 4 pin firewire cable off their shelf and still the same problem.
I think I've nailed it down to Win7x64 bit Home Edition not playing nice with Firewire driver. Very annoying. I can't find any concrete evidence of this from other users on any of the forums that have my particular problem, but from my own testing, it's all I can conclude.
I have 2 other things I can try:
1. Opening the laptop and looking at the firewire to maybe find appropriate driver (ugh, I don't want to have to open this thing up).
2. Upgrading to Win7x64bit Pro and possibly testing with XP on the new MS Virtual PC (http://www.microsoft.com/windows/virtual-pc/). I can't do it with my Home edition apparantly.
Who needs to view video on an external TV anyways....sheeesh...(scarcasm).

Hello cgoldberg11
Please go to the below link to test if you are having a speaker hardware failure.

This will rule out hardware failure, let me know how that goes.
Thanks
If I have solved your issue, please feel free to provide kudos and make sure you mark this thread as solution provided!
