my macbook's volume control is locked... plz someone xactly tell me what i shud do to get rid off this problem..! incase of tooth pick plz specify about where i mus poke or something..! plz help :'(

Hi Bob,
I've also got this problem. I saw on another thread you were helping a lady who also lost the sound in her MBP, but then her disk crashed! If you can help me I'd appreciate it.
I've got sound on startup, but otherwise my volume is greyed out. Theres no red light in headphone socket.
I've posted the thread below on this topic but have had no replies, in my post I mention that when I use my bluetooth headset my volume works, but if I disable BT or remove the BT speaker device and then try to use my internal MBP speakers, no joy. I DON'T think its related to the BT speaker.

I haven't done a Os reinstall yet, can't find disk, but this doesn't seem to work for people anyway?
Some things I've tried
PRAM reset
Repaired permissions
Rebooted (holding 'D' key)
My IAC driver was also greyed out and I followed this post to make it active but problem still not solved!!

I also tried resetting settings all to no avail ...I looked up some advice and watched utube video advice on how to fix without success..
The volume control button on side does not work ,I got the iPad last August and wonder if it is a fault that means I must return it for replacement from where it was purchased ?

The Retrospect you used way back when is no longer around. The company was sold and that company produced a new version of Retrospect - Retrospect 8.x
So, as you've been told, you would have to be running a Tiger system with an old version of Retrospect software (5.x or 6.x - you would need to know) assuming you can find the software.
As best I can remember you cannot extract files from a Retrospect backup except using the software since Retrospect did not normally make a file by file backup rather it created an archive of the files in the backup. I'm assuming that the EMC/Retrospect people have told you that old Retrospect backups are not accessible by Retrospect 8.x?

Satellite P10-804: Cannot alter the sound volume control

The Sound Volume Control on the front of the unit has set itself to far in the whole and cannot be altered.
Is this something I can fix ?

I dont know if you can fix it.
Do you have enough experience to disassemble the notebook?
Do you have good experience in soldering?
The volume controller is fixed on the motherboard its not easy to say what happens maybe there are some loose contacts
I think its better to contact a notebook technician because he has more experience as a common notebook user like me and you!

Why does using a digital connection from headphones out on a Mac into a stereo disable the master volume control on the Mac?

When you use an analog connector, it does not disable the master volume on the Mac. It's only when you use a digital connector, and it's ALL digital connectors. It still allows you to use the iTunes volume control but, when you stream anything else on the web on your computer, you have to use the stereo's volume control because the master volume control on the Mac has been disabled. Does anyone know why?

I had the same problem, instead of logging in the router with the iMac (impossible) I did it with my iPad, I guess you can do the same with an iPhone.
-Disconnect the iPad from your wifi network and connect it to the TP-Link repeater.
-Open the web browser (I use chrome) be sure you don't have any other open tab, just the one to access tptlinkextender.net
-The configuring page opens, from there follow the steps of detecting your network and adding the password.
*If your MAC address is hidden it'll appear without name, in that case you have to configure it manually (write the name on the space for that)
Now go, be happy and do good.

My beats studio 2013 work fine on my ipad but the mic/ volume control doesn't work on my iphone 5

My beats studio 2013 work fine on my ipad but the mic/ volume control doesn't work on my iphone 5. Can anyone help me?

Thanks, daniel.early79!
I have an iPhone5 bought in late Dec 2012.
I've noticed on rare occassions that the volume down button some times would not respond.
Starting yesterday, the volume down button would not respond more consistently.
Sometimes a reset would fix it, sometimes a reset network would fix it, but the problem would come back.
Came across this thread, and pressing gently on the upper right hand corner fixed it!
I remember seeing some video on Youtube or iFixit that shows how to replace the power button. It appears that the volume buttons and the power buttons are tied in together on the same piece of connector. I supposed taking the iphone in and out of cases may have warped or twisted the connector inside the case ever so slightly that the sensor for the down volume button got shifted.
The down volume button works now, after doing the trick you suggested. I'll wait and see if it comes back before taking it in for warranty repair.

My iPhone is mixing up the two volume controls

Hello,
I have an iPhone 3G, and recently it started to mix up the two volume controls for ringtone and sound effects very often when I launch an application, especially for games. Normally when I launch an app like a game, the volume control would automatically switch to the one that controls sound effects as soon as the game is finished loading, and it is that one that controls the game sound effects/music; however, now lots of my games use the ringtone volume instead, resulting in sudden and extremely loud sounds (since I always keep ringtone volume to maximum) that are not controllable even if I adjust the ringtone bar, forcing me to mute the iPhone altogether. Does anyone know what's wrong and how to fix this? Restarting did not work.

No one ever had this problem before or know how to fix it? o.x

I have lost all functions of the keyboard volume controls. i cannot find any controls for this. how

My HP Pavillion has lost all functions of the keyboard volume controls. Icannot find any controls for this. How do I go about getting
this reset?

Hi,
Try using Recovery Manager to reinstall your Audio Driver ( this will probably be IDT, but could be Realtek or Conexant ) - the procedure for using recovery manager to reinstall Software and Drivers is detailed in the relevant document on the link below.
Recovery Manager - Windows 7
Recovery Manager - Windows Vista
After the reinstallation has completed, restart the notebook.
Regards,

I saw the Apple volume control iconl!!!!!.....?

If you change the volume of a song, and quickly press the home button, for a flash, you'll see the Apple volume control icon (the same one on the iPhone and Macintosh). My question is, is there anyway to command that not by accident, but to actually control the volume using/seeing that icon? It is obviously programmed into the OS.

this also happens when you dock your iPod and use the apple remote to change the volume

When using HDMI to HDMI cable the Master Sound Control is locked.

master sound control is locked when using HDMI to HDMI using an HDTV for the display.
Although itunes sound control works. Why is the Master Control locked?

Hello,
I am new to OS X and i have tried to adjust the sound when plugged to the secondary monitor through HDMI which of course didn't work.
I have been using windows and a linux for years now, and everything works seamless.
I believe that this could be easily solved by Apple as long as their are willing to do it. Having a virtual device for sound control is not that difficult.
All the bests
There are two ways to 'solve' this.
Alter the volume before sending the digital signal down the HDMI connection, this means the signal is no longer exactly as it was originally. Apple's current (apparent) view is that this should be done at the end i.e. playback device not at the originating (Mac) end so as to minimise the number of devices making changes to the signal. Basically 'volume' is the amplitude of a an analogue wave form. (Where else do you think the term 'amp' comes from.)
Not to alter the volume of the signal at the Mac end but instead to send a signal down the HDMI cable to tell the end i.e. playback device to alter the volume, this uses a standard called CEC (Consumer Electronics Control), unfortunately at the moment no Macs support this standard - it has to be supported at a hardware level so a simple Apple software upgrade to implement this is not possible. I have previously logged an official enhancement request for this with Apple - the more people who do this the more likely it is to be added, since now all Macs include HDMI it might happen at some point.
As an addendum to option 2 above, see http://www.pulse-eight.com/store/products/104-usb-hdmi-cec-adapter.aspx this would however require software support in whatever application is being used. XBMC for Mac does support it.

Where is the remote volume control in the new ITUNES - I cant adjust my volume control remotely on my Zepplin Air anymore

Hi I have downloaded the new itunes 12.01 - since then I have had nothing but trouble with my Zepplin Air. Now I cant remotely change the volume control on it, only being able to change it on my connect

I did try that too (was already turned on). It seems like this is a big step backwards, since even if control center worked in YouTube, it requires stopping the video, opening the control center, closing it, and restarting the video. Very counterproductive to simply restoring a volume slider on the basic You Tube controller, next to the timeline slider. Again, I appreciate the help. For now, I can use the buttons on the side of the iPad (not as convenient), and hope a newer version of You Tube will restore volume controls that work in next upgrade.

Volume control is locked...

Hi...
My volum control is already locked, i don't know how to fix this problem, is there anyone to guide me?

Maybe this will help. If you monitor the "More Like This" box (top right), other threads appear. Opening them usually displays other threads.

External volume control on ihome

When I plug my ipod touch onto two of my iHomes, it charges the device, but I cannot get the volume controls to work. It only plays out of the itouch's speakers. However, when I put another itouch on the same iHomes, they work fine. My itouch has always worked on both. It is just recently that it is not working. Is there a setting on my itouch that is wrong?

Can the ring volume be set without the system volume

I hope this isn't too daft but is it possible to set the ring volume separately from the system volume? I need to run my iPhone very quietly but do not want to miss incoming calls!
Cheers

Your volume switches work differently depending on what you are doing. You may get a readout above the "speaker" symbol that appears on the screen telling you what volume is being adjusted.
If you are not using anything, the volume switches adjust the ringer volume.
If you are playing music or video, they adjust the music/video volume.
If your headphones are plugged in, they adjust the headset volume.
If you are actually on a call, they adjust the earpiece volume or speakerphone volume, whichever you are using (without a readout).
If you are on a phone call using bluetooth, they adjust the bluetooth volume.
