Apple TV works thru the tv but somehow I changed my sound settings

I went into system preference to check the settings. I found that the Sound effects, Output and Input were all set on mute and "grayed" How do I change the settings? It wont let me and I have no devices listed to choose from ie system speakers or headphone. So, I am unable to listen to anything on my iMac.

Turn your Apple TV device off at the power switch for at least 30 seconds. This will allow you device to reboot itself and the sound/audio will boom on with the rebooting and this means you have audio for your movies as well. Try it because it worked for me. Cheers

  • HT5622 My Apple ID works on the computer but not on my iphone when i try to log in

    I have recently gotten an iPhone bought from someone I know.
    I know the iPhone is genuin, however, my Apple ID only works on the computer and as I am trying to start up my new iPhone it isnt working?

    Sounds like the person didn't wipe the device first before giving to you.   They need to do that with THEIR ID, before you can use yours.

    When fist setting up your new iphone you will be asked to log in with an apple id and password. If this did not happen you can then do as you suggested going to settings to itunes and app store and add your apple id login. This apple id login must have already been created for the iphone to accept it. If this apple id is already created but is not being accepted by your iphone you then should shut down your iphone and restart the device.
    Good luck.

    For each mail account, along with designating a primary SMTP server, you should be able to just turn off any and all other SMTP servers you have listed.  In that case, if there is a problem with comcast, the message send should just fail.
    Also make sure your comcast smtp settings are correct (port, likely 587 but might be something else for comcast, whether you should be suing SSL or not, do you need authentication or not).
    You might find the comcast forums useful for getting the settings right - I found this:
    http://forums.comcast.com/t5/E-Mail-and-Xfinity-Connect-Help/iphone-email/m-p/66 1151?view=by_date_ascending#M131151
    The second poster notes, SSL should be on, authentication should be "password" and you should be using port 995

    the screen on my iPhone is frozen and I can access apps through Siri. The touch screen works within the apps but not in the home screen. What do I do?

    Have you tried a reset which is similar to a computer restart and is done by pressing and holding the home button and the sleep/wake or on/off button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo and then release?

  • Why is my Apple id working on my MacBook but not my iPad?

    Why is my Apple id working on my MacBook but not my iPad? I can log in o.k. on my MacBook, but using the same user name and password on my iPad, I just get the Incorrect Apple ID or Password message.
    on my iPad, I have used the Forgotten Apple ID or Password link and reset the password. Even after I get the successfully reset password message it still gives me the Incorrect Apple ID or Password message!
    In desperation I have restored the iPad to Factory settings. It appears to be running OS 7. something.
    My Macbook is running 10.8.5.
    But the same problme persists.

  • Will a external Apple iSight work with the latest Mac Mini?

    with a firewire 400-800 if it will what software do i need to take pictures and videos.
    Many Thanks

    Will a external apple isight work with the latest mac mini.
    Yes (if the external iSight works.)
    External iSights are great webcams, but they are getting old (as consumer electronics go) and some have had pretty rough treatment. You can test yours using the suggestions from this page:
      http://www.ralphjohns.co.uk/EZJim/EZJimpage4.html
    I suggest you disconnect other Firewire devices until you get your external iSight working with your mini.
    If you do not already have an external iSight and are considering buying one now,
    a new webcam (with warranty) may be a better choice.
    Many available alternatives are listed here: http://www.mac-compatible-web-cam.com/

    Use one of the following ways to connect your FW400 external iSight to a FW800 Mac port:
    • To use the FW400 6pin-6pin cable that comes with iSight, you can use a 6pin-9pin adapter
      like one of these:

    • This Firewire 400-800 cable can work:

    • Some report that this low-priced alternative cable works:
      http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16812189097
    I suggest you disconnect other Firewire devices until you get external iSight working with your mini. Once iSight works when it is the only FW connected device, you can try connecting other Firewire devices to determine whehter you can use any of them without conflict.
    ... if it will what software do i need to take pictures and videos.
    With your 10.6.3 mini, you can use QuickTime X, iChat, Photo Booth, iMovie, and some of the other apps that are installed with OS X. Your Mac's Help for each of these apps can tell you how to use them with iSight (or other connected cameras.)
    Some more apps you can use are shown in this list:

    The web links for each app gives details on what functions is offers with your webcam.

  • Do Apple apps work on the iPad or only on the iPhone?

    Do Apple apps work on the iPad or only on the iPhone?

    Most apps are designed for both devices.  Some apps are only designed for the iPhone but will work on the iPad - when used on the iPad you get a small screen that looks like an iPhone (rotation etc... is also more restricted like an iPhone).  Some apps only work on the iPad which are specifically designed for the iPad screen real estate - I have a mariner navigation app like that - use it when crossing the Great Lakes on my sail boat.  When you go into the App Store you will note that you can search for iPhone apps or iPad apps.

  • Apple symbol appears on the screen but then nothing

    When powering my Apple TV the Apple symbol comes on the screen but then disspears.  I think it should then go to the menu but I have a blank screen.
    The resolution indicator on the TV changes from 720 to 1080 and then slowly alternates from black to dark grey. 
    The TV is a Panasonic TXL55DT50B which seems to be working fine in all other aspects.
    Can anyone help please.
