Anyone have trouble with the internal speakers?

I had my internal speakers reset in May after an update download messed them up. NOw they aren't working again. anyone else having this problem?

Take each of the following steps that you haven't already tried.
1. Start with the steps recommended in this support article.
2. Launch the application "Audio MIDI Setup" by entering the first few letters of its name in a Spotlight search and selecting it in the results (it should be at the top.) Select the Output tab. If the Mute boxes are checked, uncheck them. Move the Volume sliders all the way to the right.
3. If your model has an audio-out (headphone) port, and a red light is coming from it, the internal switch is stuck in the position for digital output. You may be able to free it by inserting and removing a mini-stereo jack of the proper size. Inserting any kind of tool in the port may cause damage that won't be covered by your warranty.
If there's no red light, the switch may still be stuck in the headphone position. Try to free it the same way.
4. Disconnect all wired peripherals except keyboard and mouse, if applicable. If more than one display is connected, disconnect all extra ones. Reboot and test.
5. Boot in safe mode. Don't log in; just reboot as usual when the login screen appears. When you do, make sure the words "Safe Boot" do not appear in the login screen. If they do, the system is still in safe mode and sound won't work.
6. Reset the NVRAM.
7. Reset the SMC.
8. Reinstall OS X after backing up all data.
9. Make a "Genius" appointment at an Apple Store.

    Don't confuse the threads here with 'typical' experience.  Most of the stuff here is from brand new users, and those that have problems, and considering the 30 million pads in use, represent a very small sliver.
    If you are having repeated crashes it is really pretty basic.  You either have a physical problem with your pad, or you are using too much memory.
    The iOS system is supposed to monitor memory, and shut down previously used apps automatically to free up memory for what you are doing now.  That part of ios is not perfect, and if an app introduces an unexpected memory load, sometimes it gets over whelmed.  
    This happens, more often than not, when using safari with multiple windows open on graphic intense sites.  It can also happen with a memory intensive game, and residual apps in the background.
    Double  tap the home key and take a peek at the recently used list, and shut them down completely, and often the problem goes away.
    If the problem persists, you may have a software issue, and a trip to the genius bar may be in order.

  • Does anyone have trouble with the latest E71's fir...

    I' ve just upgraded my E71's Firmware, now i get in trouble with this FW. There are some problems:
    1. My device always auto restart 
    2. When i'm charging my E71, sometimes, it appears a message " Simcard not available"
    3. My E71 is full charging but after one day it need help with a message " low battery "

    I don't get any of those problems and been running the 300 for many months.
    What I suggest you do, is BACK UP YOUR PHONE BEFORE YOU start formatting and erasing!
    Then, reset or reformat your phone as described by the previous poster, additionally it could be something in your backup thats causing the problem.
    Second, instead of reformatting the handset you can reflash the SAME firmware to the handset again with NSU, there might have been a problem when it copied it into the flash memory (unlikely as it has a checksum) however you cannot rule that out.
    If its having SIM card problems - it could be related to this:
    /discussions/board/message?board.id=topfaq&thread.id=119 OK it says memory card, but could be a similar issue.
    Additionally you could charge or get the battery from another phone and allow yours to discharge it to until the phone switches off.
    I would at least reflash the firmware myself again, I have seen a difference with handsets when this is done. Why? I don't know.

  • Does anyone have trouble with the screen disappearing while making a call and trying to turn the speaker on?

    I have to use the speaker portion of my phone whenever I make or take a call.  Sometimes the screen goes out as I'm trying to hit the speaker button. Does this happen to anyone else? And any suggestions how to stop this?

    The iPhone is designed to have the screen go dark during a phone call, since the phone is normally up to your ear and you would not want to be touching the screen with your ear and possibly touching random buttons. This is done by the proximity sensor, which is located near the ear speaker on the phone. When you are reaching to turn on the speaker, it is possible that you are crossing this sensor light and it turns off the screen. I have done this before. If you try reaching from the bottom of the screen, does this still happen? Try to keep your hand away from the top front portion of the phone and see if that helps.

  • Anyone have trouble with the coldness of the aluminum track pad?

    I just purchased a new iMac with the magic trackpad. I love how it works, however, I am finding that the coldness of the aluminum is hard on my fingers and hand. Are there covers available, or suggestions for a home remedy?

    I don't use a trackpad and I have no knowledge of the temperature of one ... but it crosses my mind that if you know anyone with a medical background ... surgical gloves may do the job.   Alternately a chemist's wholesale outlet may oblige. 
    They are very sensitive, made of latex and you will need the powder free version.
    Just a thought, probably daft as a brush, but you never know.

  • Does anyone have trouble with the space bar yielding either an M or N? I am pretty careful by very frequently get this error. Anybody seen similar?

    I am not the best typist but have tried going slowly. It seems the space bar is mis-aligned and when I try to add a space I get either and M or N. Very frustrating. Is there a way to recalibrate the screen to solve this problem?

    are you connected to a wall charger while you are trying that?
    sometimes when i connect to a wall charger, the callibration gets messed up, but when there is skin contact with the back, it goes away for some reason

  • TS1741 Does anyone have trouble with the Remote app losing contact with the iTunes library after it has been connected and working fine for a while. If I go to the computer and turn off sharing, then turn it back on, it will relocate the library again.

    My iTunes remote app on my ipad mini will work fine for a while and then it will lose the library. I then have to turn off sharing on the computer and then turn it back on. This will work for a while and then I will have to repeat the process. Help!

    I have just found the problem to be windows firewall on my library PC
    I can only presume there has been an update to windows firewall or iTunes
    all the relevant programs were on the allowed list
    I'm now currently running with firewall turned off on my library PC.
    I'll update when i have found the rogue setting.

  • I have an iMac running snow leopard. I have trouble with my internal speakers, I cannot adjust the volume without having an earphone plugged into the jack.

    The volume only works when I have earphones plugged into the jack, otherwise when I try to adjust the volume it has a circle with a cross. Ive tried restarting it with and without the headphones plugged in. However it does make that mac sound when turning on the machine before the apple logo comes on and takes me to the desktop screen. Is there anything I can do to fix this??

    I'm having a very similar problem.
    I've got a 2010 iMac that I've got hooked up to my Pioneer Elite via HDMI cable using the Moshi adapter.
    It's been working great for months, but today the audio began dropping out -- a fraction of a second, every six seconds or so.
    I installed the latest Snow Leopard update today. Does anyone think there might be a connection?
    thx!

  • Does anyone have trouble with the new MBP unibody cover/lid falling shut?

    My new MBP unibody lid will close inadvertently after a certain angle. The tension on my white Macbook was nice--I could angle the lid at ANY angle, from all the way open to almost closed, an d it would stay put. Not the MBP. As I lay in bed with this new laptop, if the sceen isn't angled far enough back it just swings shut, as if it is too heavy or the tension of the hinges isnt tight enough! Anyone else have this problem? I read somewhere that Steve Jobs "intended it to be this way." Huh.

    I have a 17" mid-07 MBP
    I have the same problem. I'm currently sick in bed for the last 2 days and have been going crazy with this problem. I spent half the day looking online for some kind of clamp to keep the screen from being able to close. Basically every 3 minutes I have to push my screen back again. Every time I cough. My lid comes flying down. So annoying.

  • Does anyone else have trouble with the button on I pad to access other apps

    Does anyone else have trouble with the button on I pad to access other apps

    Hello, Kevandsheila. 
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities. 
    Here are some troubleshooting steps that I could recommend when experiencing Home button issues.  The article below is labeled for the iPhone, but the steps are the same for your iPad. 
    The Home button is slow to respond
    If the Home button is slow to respond when exiting one application, try another application.
    If the issue exists only in certain applications, try removing and reinstalling those applications. Get further assistance in installing and troubleshooting applications.
    If the issue continues, Try turning iPhone off and then on again. If the iPhone will not restart, try resetting it.
    If the issue is still happening, try to restore the iPhone.
    Seek service is the issue is still occurring.
    The Home button isn't working
    Put the iPhone to sleep.
    Wait a couple of seconds.
    Press the Home button.
    iPhone should wake up.
    If iPhone does not wake up, then iPhone should be serviced.
    If the issue persists after all the steps have been processed see the last section labeled issue not resolved.

  • Anyone having trouble with the new update for 2010 mac book air 10.8.2?

    Anyone having trouble with the new update for 2010 mac book air 10.8.2 ? My 2010 Macbook Air has crashed 15times since the 10.8.2 update. Have only once since owning it.

    Turned out the hardware was bad.  Apple exchanged it for a new Mac Air and the new trackpad works great.  Thank goodness it was a defect.  If the trackpads all worked like that I would have been bummed.

    Oh no, Robinbird18! This is not what we like to hear about your cell phone. It makes it pretty hard to have a conversation with someone when you can't hear them. If you make a phone call out are you able to have a conversation with someone without any issues? How long has this been going on? Have you tried to use the phone on speaker phone to see if that works at all? Please keep us posted.   KevinR_VZW Follow us on Twitter @VZWSupport If my response answered your question please click the "Correct Answer" button under my response.

  • Is anyone having trouble with the cursor jumping around since Lion was installed on your computer? Never happened until Lion.

    Is anyone having trouble with the cursor jumping around while typing since you installed Lion? Never had any problems of that sort prior to Lion. I have an older machine. I believe it is a 2008 MacBook Pro. Especially happens with Yahoo. I am baffled.

    Use the trackpad to scroll, thats what it was designed for. The scroll bars automatically disappear when not being used and will appear if you scroll up or down using the trackpad.
    This is a user-to-user forum and most people will post on here if they have problems. You very rarely get people posting to say there update went smooth. The fact is the vast majority of Mountain Lion users will not be experiencing any major problems with the OS, or maybe with apps which are not compatible, but thats hardly Apple's fault if developers don't update their apps.
