The sound on my Macbook Pro does not work.

The sound on my Macbook Pro does not work. When we press the volume buttons, the sound icon pops up, but the bar is full with a small "Does not work" circle below it, and nothing happens when I hit volume up or done. I went into system preferences, but there aren't any options there that I can see to change it.

"Unfortunately, it doesn't provide any help for a MacBook Pro, other than indicating to call Apple Support" (sic).
Au contraire. TS1574's title and affected products are thusly:
"Troubleshooting issues with no audio from built-in speakers on Macs
Products Affected Mac mini, MacBook, MacBook Pro, iMac"
As a result, the instructions of the article are relevant. To be sure, follow those steps, the last of which is to contact Apple.
So, by way of reminder, here are the steps to troubleshoot the audio on your MacBook Pro. There is no red light, so the port is likely fine. Headphones work, so clearly your sound card is fine.
1. Ensure an incorrect version of OS X is not installed. If one is, then reinstall or erase/install after backing up your data.
2. Remove any external audio devices from USB, firewire, etc.
3. Open Sys Prefs > Sound > Output
If Internal Speakers is listed, select it and test again.
If Digital Out is listed, confirm again that all external audio devices and cables have been removed.
If mute is selected, unselect it.
If the volume slider is low, raise the volume.
If the above simply doesn't fix it, the issue may be a corrupted plist. Apple Support might be able to help troubleshoot the issue further, per the last step of TS1574.
I hope it gets resolved for you. Good luck.

ICloud sync with MacBook Pro does not work

I've installed iOS 5, updated Lion to 10.7.2, marked Calendar and Contacts sync in System settings for iCloud on my Mac. However iCal and Address Book sync between iCloud and Mac (MacBook Pro) does not work though there is no problem in syncing between iCloud and iPhone. Whether I create new event or contact, change existing one or delete existing one in iCloud this change is not reflected on my Mac and vise versa. I could not find a solution in this site or in forums.

Yep, worked for me, too and now contacts and calendar seem to be syncing perfectly. We'll see if it lasts.
Thanks for your answer.

My Mac App Store on my MacBook Pro does not work properly.

My Mac App Store on my MacBook Pro 15 inch does not work properly. When i go on to the app store, my wi-fi resets and then my app store quits. Why is this? How can i fix this problem? Please Help

Back up all your files, on boot up when you first press the power button, press CMd and r and keep pressing until you get something apart from a apple logo. Then click reinstall Mac OS X or something like that. You may be prompted to insert your disk.
Good luck

Installation of Leo on PowerBook from my MacBook Pro does not work

Hi there
I just wanted to upgrade my old PowerBook with Leo 10.5.
Since the CD Drive is defect I just installed it over Firewire from my MacBook Pro.
I did a complete new install to clean up everything.
The installation worked fine, and I can also start the system from my MB Pro.
However, I am not able to manage that my PowerBook starts on its own.
It shows always that the OS is not found (Mac&? symbol blinking).
What do I have to do? Did already the Software upgrade and hoped that it may be a simple firmware upgrade needed...but it still does not work.
Does anyone know this problem? Help is appreciated. Thanks.

If you have the Leopard Family Pack, it will work on both Intel and PPC computers. However, a Leopard DVD that is shipped with a computer will only work on that computer.
You can install on the PB using the MacBook's DVD drive via FireWire, but not the way you tried. You were running the installation on the MacBook. It saw the PB's drive as just an external FireWire drive on the MacBook, so it set it up as another bootable drive for the MacBook, with a GUID partition table. The PB cannot boot from such a drive. It needs a drive with APM (Apple Partition Map). A MacBook can format a drive with APM, but can't install OSX on it.
You have to use FireWire Target Disk mode in the opposite direction. Put the Leopard install DVD (the black retail one, not one that came with the MacBook) in the MacBook's DVD drive and boot the MacBook into target Disk Mode (hold down "T" while booting). Connect the PB to the MacBook with a FireWire cable,and boot the PB while holding down Option. When the arrow pointer appears, select the DVD and boot from it (click the large, right-pointing arrow). After choosing the language, select Disk Utility from the "Utilities" menu. Select the PB's hard drive (all the way at the left, not the volume indented below it) and select the "Partition" tab. Set "Volume Scheme" to "1 Partition" and click the "Options" button. Choose "Apple Partition Map" and click "OK". Set the volume name and do the partitioning. Quit Disk Utility and continue with the installation. When it asks you to restart, it means the PB, not the MacBook (which is just acting as an external DVD drive).

The sound on my macbook pro does not work if I plug headphones in I can still hear but it will not project volume out loud and when I try to turn up the volume it is just greyed out what do I do ?

The sound on my macbook pro will not project anything if I plug in headphones I can hear but when I take them out and try and turn up the volue the speaker is grey and the bars under it are white with a no volume sign ( circle with a line through it) how do I fix this ?

Hopefully one of these steps should solve the problem.
1. System Preference > Sound > Output > Internal Speakers
    Highlight Internal Speakers
    Make sure that Mute is not enabled.
2. Remove the headphone.
    If you see red light in the headphone port, plug the headphone
    in and out of the port 5 or 6 times to flip the microswitch inside.
    Sound output may be stuck in the digital mode.
3. Reset PRAM. http://support.apple.com/kb/PH4405
4. Reset SMC.     http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3964
    Choose the method for:
    "Resetting SMC on portables with a battery you should not remove on your own".
5. Applications > Utilities > Audio MIDI Setup
    Audio Devices window
    Side Bar
    Click the Built-in Output.
    Under Mute any of the boxes checked? If so, uncheck it.
6. System Preferences > Sound> Sound Effects
    Play sound effects through:
   Select "Internal speakers" and then back to "Selected sound output device".

MacBook Pro does not work

I am very frustrated. To make a long story short, my dog knocked down my macbook and it got destroyed. I purchased all the parts on Ebay . i bought all the parts on ebay. Here is the issue. The parts i purchased from ebay are brand new and work. the last issue that i had was with the keyboard. so i bought a new keyboard replacement from factory brand new.After installing the new keyboard, i do not know what happened to the laptop but it does not work properly anymore.
Here are the issues:
1. The computer becomes overheated very fast
2. the computer takes a long time to load when starting
3. the keyboard does not work
Here is another issue: the airport card is brand new yet the system does not pick it up.
The computer worked perfectly until i replaced the old keyboard with the new one.
i tried to do a diagnostic and it does not work. the computer freezes during the diagnostic. it does not finish and the computer overheats. feel so frustrated. i was so close to finally fixing my laptop. i am lost.
macbook pro unibody mid 09 a1286. not sure about the operating system.

Do you have a wired keyboard?
"Yes, the keyboard works. It powers the computer, however, the keyboard keys don't work."
So the power button works but the keyboard doesn't.
Pull the connector to the keyboard and start the computer using the power pads as below:
http://www.insidemylaptop.com/turn-on-macbook-pro-laptop-without-power-button-lo cating-power-on-pads/
Be very careful doing this. Carefully identify the power pads and only touch them.

TS1381 The 'V'key in my Macbook Pro does not work. I press it, nothing. How can I resolve this problem?

My Macbook Pro is relatively new but the 'V' key is not responsive at all and does not work. No, I have not spilt anything on it. I havent dropped it either. Any suggestions would be welcome. Thanks.

My Macbook Pro is relatively new
Then it should still be under warranty. Take it in for repair.

Facetime on MacBook Pro does not work

Facetime on my Macbook Pro which was working fine a few months ago no longer seems to want to work. It simply opens up the window and displays the facetime logo with a line through it. The preferences option from the file menu is greyed out so inaccessible. I cant sign in/out or do anything, its basically dead in the water.
Any ideas?
Thanks

Here is how to troubleshoot and fix your problem:
• If Apple's http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2090
   suggestions do not help you, (are you certain that you
   used the correct "reset" procedure?), yours is most likely a
   hardware problem that will require a professional fix.
   Unless you have a current backup, make one now.
Then use the final "Troubleshooting" suggestion:
"... contact Apple or an Apple-Authorized Service Provider for service."
(Apple has changed the built-in camera's name on newer Macs from "iSight" to "FaceTime" and then to "FaceTime HD." Regardless of the name of your Mac's built-in camera, the same info and troubleshooting applies.)
• If you want to try one more thing on your own first, restart Mac
and use your Mac's Disk Utility to repair permissions. Then
download and apply the latest Combo Update for your OS.
At present, the latest Snow Leopard Combo is here:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1399
• Repair permissions again immediately following the system restart
   that completes the Combo update.
Properly applying the Combo version of updates can sometimes correct software problems, but, if your trouble is caused by a hardware problem, there are no user serviceable parts of the camera. Contact Apple or an Apple-Authorized Service Provider for hardware help.

One of the USB ports on MacBook Pro does not work.

Hi,
I purchased a MacBook Pro in Jan '11. Both the USB ports on the laptop were working fine. Recently, I have noticed, any external device connected to the USB port, towards the battery side does not recognize the connection.
Any solutions ?. Is this defect covered under warranty ?.
Regards
Anil Madan

Anil,
Try resetting the SMC.
SMC RESET
Shut down the computer.
Plug in the MagSafe power adapter to a power source, connecting it to the Mac if its not already connected.
On the built-in keyboard, press the (left side) Shift-Control-Option keys and the power button at the same time.
Release all the keys and the power button at the same time.
Press the power button to turn on the computer.

Microphone on Macbook pro does not work in windows 7 with parallels

I recently purchased a Macbook pro with retina display, and installed windows 7 on the macbook with parallels desktop 7. I found out my microphone was not working correctly inside windows, I did bought my laptop to Apple store, at first we thought it was the microphone problem and exchanged me a new laptop, but the issue still exits, so I bought the laptop back to Apple store, this time we find out it seems like the microphone only not working under the windows, it works just fine in Mac part.
Apple direct me to windows telling me that I might need to install a device or driver only windows can provide; then when I contacted window, Windows told me I need to contact apple because the device or deriver must provided by the manufacture of the PC. Both side still direct me back to each other, so I still don't know what deriver or device I needed..........
When I pull up the device manager inside windows, the only device listed under sound is "Parallels Audio Controller (x64)"
Another thing is, the microphone still works inside windows 7, it's just not working correctly. For an example, if I'm doing a live chatting with my friends inside windows, I can hear my friends and they can hear me too, but they cannot hear me very clearly, it seems like there are some kind of negative feedback, it seems like there's an electronic vibrate in my voice.
Can someone please help me
Thank you

Making an iPhone 4S manual backup to a MacBook Pro does not work in iTunes?

Hello.
I am helping a client's iPhone 4S (iOS 5) to back up his data to his 13.3" MacBook Pro (Mac OS X 10.8.2 with updates including the latest iTunes v11 without iCloud). We told iTunes not to automatically synchronize when connected. We did tell it to manual back ups from iPhone to MacBook Pro, but we only saw it back up iPhone's apps. Calendar, Contacts, etc. do not get updated on MacBook Pro's software. We don't want to synchronize. We just want to overwrite iPhone's data to the computer. Did we miss something or is there a bug in this manual backup? My client only updates his data on his iPhone and not the computer.
Thank you in advance.

Backing up will not update the calendar, contacts, etc. on his MacBook Pro; only syncing does that (and it's bi-directional). Backing up only creates a device backup that can later be used to restore from if necessary. He can confirm that the backup was successfully created by going to iTunes>Preferences>Devices and checking the Backups list.
Or am I misunderstanding your question?
We do see iTunes' device and ~/Library/Application Support/MobileSync/Backup/ showing the backups. We thought manual backups did COMPLETE backups including calendar, contacts, etc. That's disappointing. The problem is synchronizing is that it likes to make duplicates which is quite annoying. We would prefer iTunes overwrite iPhone 4S' datas to computer. He nevers updates/add data on the computer.
