Apps not making sounds

All of a sudden, my apps are not making sounds, nor can I hear my music, typing or text alerts. The ringer works though. I did a complete backup and restore but it did not fix the issue.

If you lose sounds for keyboard clicks, games or other apps, email notifications and other notifications, system sounds may have been muted.
System sounds can be muted and controlled two different ways. The screen lock rotation can be controlled in the same manner as well.
Settings>General>Use Side Switch to: Mute System sounds. If this option is selected, the switch on the side of the iPad above the volume rocker will mute system sounds.
If you choose Lock Screen Rotation, then the switch locks the screen. If the screen is locked, you will see a lock icon in the upper right corner next to the battery indicator gauge.
If you have the side switch set to lock screen rotation then the system sound control is in the task bar. Double tap the home button and in the task bar at the bottom, swipe all the way to the right. The speaker icon is all the way to the left. Tap on it and system sounds will return.
If you have the side switch set to mute system sounds, then the screen lock rotation can be accessed via the task bar in the same manner as described above.
This support article from Apple explains how the side switch works.

It also takes time for the photos to be transferred out of your iPhone and into Photo stream on Apple's iCloud servers.
Note that this can't happen if your iPhone is not connected to a WiFi network:
When you enable My Photo Stream on your devices, all new photos you take or import to those devices will be automatically added to your photo stream.
iOS devices: New photos you take are automatically uploaded to your photo stream when you leave the Camera app and are connected to Wi-Fi. My Photo Stream does not push photos over cellular connections.
Macs: Any new photos you import to iPhoto or Aperture begin uploading automatically when you have a Wi-Fi or Ethernet connection. Or you can change your iPhoto or Aperture preferences so that only photos you manually add to My Photo Stream are uploaded.
PC with iCloud Control Panel 2.0 or later: Open a Windows Explorer window and under Favorites select iCloud Photos if you are using iCloud Control Panel 3.0 (or Photo Stream if you are using 2.0 to 2.1.2). Open My Photo Stream. Click the "Add photos" button. Select the photos to import to My Photo Stream, then click Open.

Disapearing Apple - Unknown Device - Making Sounds

Hi all -
So here is the deal. I have an 15G iPod with Dock Connector -- the one before the turnie wheel. I am now trying to install this iPod on my computer for the first time. I plug the iPod into the adaptor - adaptor into a working outlet and the apple appears then disappears -- I have pluged and unpluged -- I have tried different outlets -- there is no consistancey except that the apple SOMETIMES appears -- but mainly its blank. One time I got a battery bar with a ! triangle -- but that was just once.
SECOND issue -- I have yet to configure this iPod because when I connect it to the USB port -- I get the USB Device Not Recognized. So I went to the Device Manager -- it's there but as an Unknown Device. The computer does not recognize the device ANYWHERE but in the Device Manager as an Unknown Device. Oh! And when I did the trouble shoot thing on the error message -- it said "No Drivers are installed for this device."
Is there a driver I am missing? How do I get my iPod to charge and to be recognized?

Oh! Oh! One more bit of information -- the iPod is getting warm when plugged in AND its making sounds.
Thanks for any help!!!

Keys on Apple keyboard not working

Hi Apple Folks
I don't know why some keys of my iMac keyboard stop working after not using the iMac Mid 2007 for a while.
It is a Apple Keyboard with Numeric Keypad, still looks like brand new. There is no any physical damage to the keyboard, the iMac and the keyboard just left there not in use for two years.
The bad keys are ESC, TAB, CAPS LOCK, DELETE , \, and RETURN of the character keys area, also the 0 on keypad. All the other keys work perfectly as they were.
Per an Apple KB article, i have confirmed these bad keys by using the Keyboard and Character Viewer of OS X.
Any hints to fix the keys please?
Kind regards,
B

OK, do some very basic resets of your system. The first two you may need to do 3x as they don't always work the first time. For instructions click Intel iMac SMC and PRAM resets
If those do not work then restart in Safe Mode and then restart normally.

Apple keyboard not working w Iogear KVMP 1644 switch

I have a new Apple keyboard that I am attempting to integrate it into my music setup. It's an Iogear GSC1644 4-Port Dual View Dual Link DVI KVMP Switch with Audio. I have a newer (2012) Apple keyboard that I plugged into my setup and it does not work. It is the same model A1243 as my 2008 Apple keyboard which still works except for 2 keys, the 'Z' and the 'option' keys. I plug it in and nothing - it's like it is not seen. HOWEVER >>>> when I plug it indirectly to the computer - no problem. These Apple keyboards look identical, they are the same model. I have changed USB cables at every connection - I cannot get it to work. I powered down the Iogear GCS1644 per directions from their support desk: this included disconnecting every device and unplugging the power supply and leaving it unplugged for at least 10 minutes. I left it unplugged for over an hour. Then plugged the 4 computers back in, powered on the unit, and only powered on one computer - it still did not work. The older Apple keyboard works perfectly - nothing changed. I am at a loss.
What can this be? Is there a major difference between the two Apple Keyboards even though they carry the same model number? And - barring a quick and simple fix - are there any other older Apple Keyboards out there? If not Apple, are there any other keyboards with a similar small footprint like the Apple that might work? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Are you connecting the keyboard to the keyboard-specific USB port on the back of the unit, as opposed to the front port or the hub on the back?
I have a 4-port DVI IOgear KVM. I have never had a problem with the keyboard not being recognized, although booting through the KVM doesn't allow use of the various "boot" keys (option, S, T, etc.). I have to plug a keyboard directly into the computer for that. The other issue I have had is that the front USB port was always somewhat unreliable, and after a year or two just seemed to conk out.
I am using an older Kensington Slim type keyboard that was discontinued several years ago. I haven't tried the Apple keyboard that came with my 2010 Mac Pro, but will try to do so, just to see if there is an issue.
There may very well be some slight difference between the 2008 and the newer keyboards. With luck, someone here will know.
Is your Mac Pro a 2013 model?

New Apple Keyboard not compatible??

I was looking to purchase a new Apple Keyboard (wired) for a G4 Powerbook but the system requirements say the machine must have OS 10.5 or higher. Is this true? The Apple Keyboard with Numeric Keypad only requires 10.4.
I wouldn't have thought that a keyboard would not be compatible with a G4.
Marion

You can go to the System Preferences --> Keyboard and Mouse and check "Use F1, F2 etc keys..." and F7 and F8 will work.
But I don't know where the function key is on those new keyboards.

Gmail Not Making Sound w/OS X Mail

I haven't been able to find anything helpful that's recent about gmail not making a sound for new email using my MacBook w/OS X. I've unchecked "use idle command if the server supports it." Still - no sound. or notification of any kind. I've also switched to Google Chrome as my browser as that was one of the suggestions. Any solutions or new suggestions?

Because it's IMAP, I just deleted the entire account in Preferences and recreated it, and everything's back.

Apple keyboard not recognized while installing WinXP

I posted my WinXP Pro installation problems earlier in this forum but I think having recognized the problem: When Bootcamp boots the machine from the WinXP-CD, it seems that my USB-keyboard (tried both: aluminium and old white plastic) is not recognized, meaning that I cannot input anything to tell the Win installer to proceed. The symptom I see is that the green light of the caps lock key is not there. This probably means that the keyboard is not connected as it should be. Could it be that this is due to the OS 10.5.6 Update? On earlier machines and with earlier versions of Leopard I did not have this problem.
Please advise.

Same here until my partner provided her usual keen insight - use a Windows keyboard!
Until you have completed the WinXP installation and then re-inserted your OS X/Mac Install CD 1, Windows can only establish comms with a Windows-specific keyboard, not a Mac-specific keyboard. The Win USB Mac-keyboard drivers contained in Boot Camp are not installed until you start up the OS X/Mac Install CD 1....
Microsoft Comfort Curve Keyboard 2000 worked for me (~£20). Will probably continue using this when running WinXP for any extended period; saves having to learn new key combinations.
BTW: I found that once WinXP was installed, downloading and installing the drivers contained in Boot Camp 2.1 from the Apple website greatly improved both control (eg Nvidia driver) and responsiveness of WinXP.
Hope you (all) find this useful; thanks are due entirely to my partner, bless her.

Apple keyboard not working after installing new monitor

Yesterday I installed a new monitor - HP EliteDisplay E231i - to my Late 2013 Mac Pro. Previously I had been using super old apple monitors. My apple keyboard was working great - I had it plugged into the new monitor itself. I shut down the computer last night. This morning, the Mac Pro won't recognize my keyboard no matter what I do. I tried plugging it into every possible USB port on the tower and on the monitor. Restarted it after moving it each time. I'm currently typing with a Microsoft keyboard, which is working fine. I tried the keyboard in 2 other laptops (macbook pro) and it works fine. Is this a bug specific to the monitor?? I've been running Yosemite 10.10.2 since the last update, and I've had no issues till I switched the monitor out and tried to start the computer after shutdown.
Details: Mac Pro (Late 2013), Yosemite 10.10.2, 32 GB 1866 MHz DDR3 ECC, AMD FirePro D500 3072 MB
Anyone know what's going on?

Numeric Pad on Apple Keyboard not working with 12" PB

Hi, I'm having a problem with my Apple Keyboard and 1.5 GHz PowerBook G4 12". When I attempt to use the numeric keypad on the external keyboard, no numbers are printed displayed. Originally I though the keyboard was broken and had Apple replace it. However, the problem still persists. Any help would be amazingly appreciated.

Ya, I have the same issue. The Clear key is reported to be the numlock but it doesn't help.
The Keyboard Layout shows the keys are being depressed.

Wired Apple Keyboard not recognized in Win 7 64x bootcamp partition

I installed a bootcamp partition on an iMac late 2012 i5 running 10.8.3 following the Bootcamp instructions. Windows 7 64x installed fine. My wireless Apple keyboard and magic mouse work fine. However, when I plug in my previous Apple wired keyboard from my 2008 iMac, Windows doesn't recognize it, keyboard doesn't work, and the USB ports on the keyboard don't work. Called Apple support and they said to call Microsoft. MS said they didn't have an answer. Anyone else have this issue and any success resolving it? Would really prefer to use the wired keyboard for gaming and the numeric keypad.

Sorry - also meant to say that I had Win 7 x32 installed in a bootcamp partition on my previous 2008 C2D iMac and the wired keyboard worked fine.

Apple Keyboard (not wireless) cable length

Hi,
which length has the USB-cable on the Apple Keyboard (with numeric keypad)? Standard 1.8m or more ?
Thanks,
EmmKay

You asked about the cable on the keyboard, and that's about 0.8 meters. If you want the length including the USB extension cable, then yes, that would be about 1.8 meters.
It's helpful if you are precise in asking your question. Then we can give you the most appropriate replies.
Regards.

Text messages are not making sounds anymore.

I have the sound on and when I send and receive text messages, I do not hear the alert. I also do not hear the keystrokes.
Speaker phone works when I get a call but I can't hear texts or keystrokes, or the keypad when I am placing a call.
When I plug in the earphones I hear the sounds fine. I pluged in an unplugged the headphones. I also turned on and off the device.
Is speakerphone separate from other sounds??
Does anyone have any suggestions?
