Haswell MBPR buggy volume control

It's two days old haswell mbpr.
Whenever i change the volume with keyboard, the system become laggy and buggy and momentarily freezes.
why is that? should i just go exchange???
i have nothing installed but office 2011.

number9,Welcome to Apple Discussions, As this appears to be a glitch with one method a cahning the volume rather than the actuall process. I suggest you reset the PRAM. This article explains that the speaker settings are stored in this memory and also the method for doing it.

  • Another volume control problem after installing new software

    I'm having a different volume control problem than the previous poster.
    When I turn my ipod touch on, the volume control stays on the screen. I can't do anything to get rid of it. When I go into settings/sounds, the control goes away on the screen, but it will not let me turn the volume up. When I try to listen to music through my headphones, I can turn the volume up but then it automatically turns itself down. The same thing happens when I try to turn the volume up from the side control. It worked fine this morning before I installed the new software and now it's acting buggy. Any ideas on how to fix this?

  • Unable to use volume control ipod itouch 5.1.1

    hello,
    itouch didn't have a problem with volume slider until recently. through other websites, i have since located the volume slider in music playing mode by double tapping the home button and scrolling to the left but it lacks any button to scroll to increase the volume. music plays well via a sound dock but that has it's own volume controls. sometimes when docking it plays through the handset speakers until seated correctly so i know the internal speakers do work.
    any light on the matter would be very much appreciated!!!

    I just got off the phone with a friend of mine who was having the same problem as you. Although you say the camera playback is set properly, please recheck this. go into your camera's playback menu>menu>standard set>VCR HDV/DV. Unplug your firewire from the camera. Make sure camera is set to HDV NOT auto. replace firewire cable. Now open FCP. Go in Audio/video settings>A/V devices (farthest tab on right). In box for playback edit to tape different from video output (make sure it's checked) mirrored (checked) Video playback 1080i50, Audio HDV. I hope that works now.

    I really dislike to update my iphone's software.  I have Iphone 4S and I have been using voice memo to record lectures for sometime.

    check voice memo when syncing my iphone with macbook.  It is not working.  Also, I totally messed my volume control.  I went to
    Genuis bar and the lady who helped told me that my Iphone has some issues before which is making my Iphone go nuts.

  • Need Volume Control API's for windows phone 8.1

    Hi,
       I'm developing a windows phone 8.1 app in which volume need to control. To do this I'm not getting API's to perform this operation, so can any one help to develop this app. if not please post some suggestions why this is not possible.
    Thanks in advance.
    Regards,
    Naresh Kumar

    Hi NareshKumar,
    Volume control always needed by play some media stuff, could you please tell us why and where do you need the volume control.
    Basically as I know if we play the sound by MediaElement, it has a
    Volume property, or what kind of media play control are you using?
    Indeed, there is no API that can directly control the system volume, only user can manage that.

  • 5.1 Option has vanished from Creative volume control...

    I have Creative's 5800 5.1 speaker system, and creative volume control on my computer. Used to be, I could just select 5.1 in the creative volume control settings and there you have it. Magically this seems to have vanished from the Speaker/headphone selection options leaving me only with 4.1 and 7.1 as options. Any idea why or how I may get the 5.1 option back?

    Managed to answer my own question if you install the creative console launcher version 2.60.29 it installs the volume panel as well and you can then install the newer version of the console launcher which will uninstall the older console launcher but leave the volume panel in place. i would say one thing though i'm surprised creative seem to have removed this usefull add-on (volume panel) installer from the newest creaitve console launcher install as i find it a far better volume control than windows and would think they would ship it with all versions of the console launcher not just the older one avaliable for [email protected]

  • How can I set up a custom keyboard shortcut for volume control?

    Hi all,
    I use my black MacBook at work, connected to an external monitor and external keyboard. I'm looking for a way to set up the F buttons on my external keyboard as volume control, just as they do on my laptop keyboard. Looking for F3 to F5 to be volume mute, down, and up, respectively.
    I tried going into Keyboard Shortcuts in System Preferences but since there is no menu item for volume control I can't seem to add it. Anyone know how I can go about doing this or what I'm missing?
    Thanks
    Mike

    paste the following into Applescrpt Editor (it's in /Applications/Utilities)
    <pre style="
    font-family: Monaco, 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;
    font-size: 10px;
    margin: 0px;
    padding: 5px;
    border: 1px solid #000000;
    width: 720px;
    color: #000000;
    background-color: #ADD8E6;
    overflow: auto;"
    title="this text can be pasted into the Script Editor">
    set curVolume to output volume of (get volume settings)
    -- work out the new setting
    if curVolume < 96 then
    set newVolume to curVolume + 5
    else
    -- can't go over 100
    set newVolume to 100
    end if
    -- and apply it
    set volume output volume newVolume</pre>
    this script will increase volume by 5 (out of 100) any time you run it. you can adjust this of course. save the script somewhere.
    You can use a 3rd part app launcher to bind a keyboard shortcut to it. I use Butler. there are many others: Quicksilver, ikeys, quickeys, Spark, Launchbar.
    this will work the fastest.
    If you don't want to use 3rd party tools for this you can make a service using automator but that might be a bit slower than the first option. open automator. it will give you a pulldown screen wiuth the choice of what you want to make. choose "service". set it to receive no input and be available in all applications. add the following "run apple script" action to the service
    <pre style="

    -- can't go over 100
    set newVolume to 100
    end if
    -- and apply it
    set volume output volume newVolume

    save the service, go to keyboard system preferences->keyboard shortcuts->services and make a shortcut for the service you just created.

  • DV9700 Volume Controls not working after motherboar​d replacemen​t

    I have a HP Pavilion DV9702ea, which I've had for just over two years now. It worked absolutely fine for me in every way since I got it until about one month ago when I installed some software that required me to restart Windows. The laptop shutdown but did not restart. I tried to switch it back on but it would not work - when I pressed the power button the power light would blink for perhaps half a second but that was it. After some internet searching I ascertained that this is a symptom of a common problem with these laptops and that it suggested that the GPU had failed, which meant I needed a new laptop.
    So I ordered a new laptop using the model number shown on the sticker near the RAM ports. It arrived and I installed it. Now my laptop is fully working again - all except for the volume controls. On the control panel above the keyboard, all of the QuickPlay keys (Q, DVD, previous, Play/Pause, next and stop) are illuminated but the volume control keys (mute, - and +) are not. I have Windows Vista installed with the correct audio driver and it does not respond to me pressing these keys, so it's not just that they're not lit up, they're not working at all.
    I've tried everything that I can think of to fix this - as far as I'm concerned it should not be a software issue, because these keys are supposed to be illuminated from power-on, so even without a hard drive or an operating system installed these keys should be lit up. Nevertheless I've tried making sure all the audio, QuickPlay, QuickLaunch and QuickTouch drivers are up to date and have tried alternate drivers for all of them. I've checked the cable leading from the motherboard to the controls - it appears to be intact, but I even ordered a replacement just in case and that has made no difference. I've extensively Googled the problem and the most promising fix that I could find (that is repeated on these forums several times) was to power off the laptop, remove the mains adapter and battery, hold the power button down for 30 seconds to discharge any static and then power on again. I've tried that a few times and it has not fixed the problem in my case.
    So I'm at a loss now. My last resort will be to return the motherboard for a replacement, but that will obviously be a lot of hassle for me as I'll have to strip down the laptop to remove it and I'll be without a working laptop for a day or so. And then, if it's not a motherboard fault, I'll have put a lot of effort into not getting anywhere. So is there anything else I should try?
    Any help would be much appreciated.

    I have this issue before, in my case, its ribbon cable issue. dv9000 have two ribbon cables the one that have broken is the long one, (connect mobo to switch panel). However there is other possibility that the switch panel also broken.
    Try buying the ribbon cable first, it is much cheaper compared to switch panel.

  • My kid dropped my iPad 2 and the volume control on the side got jammed in and now everytime my ipad is on the volume icon in the middle of the screen will not go away.  I can not move the switch on the side, it is jammed, is there a way to fix it?

    My kids dropped my iPad and the volume control on the side got jammed in and it will not move, how can I fix this?  Can it be pulled out to unstuck it.  The glass got chipped right next to it, but it is not that noticible.  Everything else works on the iPad, but the other problem is that I am past my 90 day warrenty and it will cost me $265.00 to have Apple fix it.  Is there anyway I can save my iPad?

    Your warranty is actually one year - the 90-days is only for free telephone support - but the warranty would not cover damage due to the iPad being dropped. I doubt there's anything you can do to fix the rocker, so you'll probably need to pay to get the iPad exchanged (by Apple) or repaired (by a third party repair service).

  • How do you increase the voicemail volume on an iPhone 4s ( Verizon ). The phone volume is fine. It is when I retrieve voicemails. Even the speakerphone is faint. I have adjusted the side volume buttons and the volume control in settings.What am I missing?

    How do I increase the voicemail volume on an iPhone 4s ( Verizon )? The phone volume is fine. I have adjusted both side volume buttons as well as the volume control in settings.

    Number one - that person has given you false information...the Apple store genius bar supports all Apple products whether in or out of warranty.  Checking is free, service on an out of warranty item is not free.
    Try a reboot by holding both the power and home buttons until the apple logo appears, ignore the red slider if that appears.
    Since you show that you have iOS 7.0.3 you might want to update that iOS to 7.0.4...plug the iPhone in so you are on a solid power source, then while on a WiFi go to Settings > General > Software Update and update to 7.0.4.

  • How do I set shortcuts on my new onn wireless keyboard for volume control?

    Replacement Keyboard
    Volume control issue with a non- Apple Keyboard 
    [Sunday - July 29, 2012 - 2:18pm]
    Question:     I just purchased a new keyboard in place of the orginal for my iMac which gave out this morning. The brand name of the keyboard is
    ONN & it's a wireless board. I've encountered an issue that is a deal breaker - if there is no possible way to correct it. The volume control buttons used to
    increase/decrease/mute the volume do not work on this product. I bough this keyboard because it was one of the two that was Mac compatable at my
    local store. I realize you get what you pay for but hope there is a soulution!   
    **Sidenote: I was curious, anyone had any other issues with these keyboards?
    Some additional information:
    When I woke up this morning, sat down in my computer chair, turned on my iMac and pulled up Textedit. I placed my hands on my faithful keyboard and within moments I realized that it had met it's end. I was quite upset that my original, sleek white iMac keyboard was now a thng of the past but realized that I'd need a replacement very soon in order to get my paperwork done.
    Unfortunately, I did not have time to ride forty-five minutes to my local Apple store and I didn't neccesarily want to hand over the cash for one of the pricey keyboards at the time because I am going on a vacation within the next few weeks and each dime counts. So, I decided to visit a store that obviously would have the cheapeast deals in the meantime. So, I headed to to Wal-Mart to make a quick purchase
    As I walked the aisles it soon became evident that today's market still is not on point when it comes to having Apple compatable hardware, softwore or anything for that matter. As I quickly skimmed the keyboards I ran across several that caught my eye, but of course, they were all made specifically for Windows. So, finally I approcahed two keyboards that were Mac compatible. The first was way too large and came with a mouse, which I did not need. The second caught my eye and I knew that this would be my purchase.:::
    The verdict: an onn wireless keyboard that was both affordable and also gave off a sleek and modern apperance. (Retailed: $24.00)
    So, I got home and began using the board. For the first how I was actuallly very satisfied. I like the buttons and the feel of the board. Then, I encountered a problem that made my interested for the new keyboard vanish.
    The Issue:  On the boards layout, the (F2) key has a symbol that notates the decrease volume control button, (F3) of course would be the increase volume button & lastly the (F4) button represents the [mute] button.
    However, these buttons don't work. Sadly, I am not aware of how I could possibly change this issue or if it would even be possible. I sincerely hope that it's possible - because I like the convience of the volume control keys - they were actually my favorite part of the keyboard. Manually changing the volume by going through system preferences does not sound fun to me once so ever. I guess you could call me spoiled but I don't think I can even keep this board if it doesn't have the ability to change volume/mute via the keyboard.
    This is a shame because the keyboard it'self isn't bad at all and I actually somewhat like it. So, if you have any information or an answer to this question - I'd truly appreciate hearing your responses! Also, do keep in mind I am a rookie when it comes to computers as a whole so try to simplicate things for me if that is nessecary.
    Closing negative note on this keyboard: As I typed this I started encountering a very annoying problem. As I am typing in a line, forming a sentence the keyboard would randomly start typing in pargraphs above and below as well. I'm not sure if this is something that I caused by pressing too hard with my hands or if this is a deffect. Either way, I will saving my receipt and the boxing for this product until I hear further news.
    I hope to hear from you soon and I appreciate your help very much.
    Have a great day,

  • Why doesn't the volume control settings allow a greater range (on the low end)?

    Maybe my ears are really sensitive, but for every iphone I've had, the lowest volume is not low enough.  My phone is often louder than I want in my headphones even at the lowest setting.  I find myself trying to lower the volume but ending up in silence.  After putting it back up to the lowest setting, I end up clicking down again a few minutes later because it's too loud for my surroundings and situation.  It's a huge volume jump from the lowest setting to completely off, and alot of times the lowest setting is too loud (even with normal buds or headphones).
    The volume limiter setting only limits the upper end, but doesn't change the lower end (just makes the 16 set increments smaller in that reduced range).  I know there is also an option to turn down the volume of individual songs in iTunes options, but this problem applies to all aspects of the iphone beyond just my music library (Music apps, Videos, etc.).
    Why hasn't apple expanded the lower volume limits?  There has to be a way, or is this not possible?  Can anybody think of a way to fix this problem?

    Look for headsets with a volume control.
    I did exactly this for awhile.  I used to have Skullcandy Asyms with the inline volume attenuator (wheel).  They've since discontinued them, and my 5 pairs are having wire connectivity issues.  All their current models have iphone like volume mechanisms.  The problem is most headphones with volume controls tap into the phones own volume control (so the set 16 volume increments).  I also looked into using a dongle attenuator, but having the dongle hanging off the phone is just awkward and not easily adjustable.
    I don't know why there can't be some form of internal attenuator option, or some other way of extending the lower range of volume.
    Does anyone else have this problem of the iPhone being too loud in semi-quiet environments?

  • The volume control on my ipod touch 4th Gen is gone,what should I do?

    It just happen to me lately, so as I open the music while my earhones are plugged,I saw that there is no volume control on my screen but the song is still playing but I can't hear anything so I remove my earphones then I plugged it again then the volume controls show. I have to do this all over again just to listen to my songs. Also,when I try to play it on loudspeaker,the volume control is missing again. I already restore my ipod but it is still the same. My OS is up to date so my itunes are. what should I do? Does somebody experiencing the same? Somebody help. Thanks

  • Volume control for video playback through Apple TV2

    I am trying to configure the volume settings used on airplay through apple TV2 and a macbook pro and Iphone4 all with most recent updates.
    I am using the apple remote app on my iphone to control the apple tv.
    Whats working:
    Using the pandora app on my iphone through aiplay to the apple tv, I can control the volume using the plus and minus buttons on the side of the iphone for volume control. Very cool and easy.
    Using the apple remote app on my iphone I can control the itunes volume of different speakers by clicking on the airplay icon and using a slider.  Not as cool as using the hard +/- buttons but still works.
    Whats not working:
    Controling volume on appleTV2 through the iphone remote app for video playbacks like netflix, and youtube.
    Why I want this: RIght now I can control most of the multimedia right from my iphone including cranking the music up:) But when I switch over to video(Netlfix, Youtube) I have to get out another remote (stereo reciever) to control the volume. It seems we are so close to being able to control everything off the iphone, the only thing missing is volume control for video playback.
    Is there a setting that can be changed or a solution I havent found?
    Thanks

    Same problem with TV3. HDMI volume output is not adjustable, neither with the original Apple remote nor with any universal. Why ? Every simple settop-box is able to be volume adjusted. And a Mac Mini too ?!!!
    I use a flatscreen TV. it has 3 HDMI inputs and one optical out for the audio going to an amp standing behind it. The sound of the TV is switched to go to the optical out.
    HDMI 1 is connected to the satellite settop box with its  own remote control ( channel +/-, volume +/- etc. ) it work s fine.
    HDMI 2 is connected to the MacMini HDMI out with its own remote control ( channel/music +/-, volume +/- ) it works fine too.
    HDMI 3 was connected to Apple TV3 with its own remote control ( channel/music +/- but no volume ). I sent the TV3 back to Apple.
    What's going wrong in the mind of Apple ? Why is the HDMI volume output of the MacMini adjustable with the Apple remote, and the TV3 not ?
    I want not to discuss, wether a 4th remote control is useful or not. I don't want it. I want to adjust the volume with the originl remote control of the specific unit I use, because I need it anyway. It worked since years, but not with Apple TV3.
    How can we help Apple to open the volume +/- function on their own remote control ?

  • Volume controls on my Apple BT Keyboard do not control volume on my Mac Mini

    I just updated the OS on my Mac Mini to Yosemite and everything was working fine, but earlier today the volume control buttons on my Apple BT Keyboard stopped controlling the volume on my Mac Mini. I was watching a movie just last night and the keyboard controlled the volume just fine. So the keyboard WAS working fine for a few hours after I installed Yosemite.
    When I press the volume buttons I get the screen display for sound and instead of the up and down volume that I usually get when repeatedly pressing the volume button I get a zero with a line through it. The same thing happens when I press the mute/unmute button so the computer is not muted. And it's not an issue with the F key settings in preferences because the volume buttons DO get a response and display on the screen, but the volume doesn't change and, as I said, instead of the up/down scale I get the zero with a line through it.
    I can change the volume using the mouse and sliding the volume slider in ITunes up or down, but that's the only way. Also, strangely, the volume icon in the Apple bar at the top of my screen is grayed out. When I click on it, the slider shows volume all the way up and it's grayed out. And if I click and drag to try and change that slider, it doesn't respond.
    Basically, it appears that the keyboard is, in some ways, not compatible with the computer. I'm typing with the keyboard now, and all the other buttons work except for the volume up/down/mute buttons. Even the change track, play/pause buttons work just fine. So it's not specific to the music controls. And again, I DO get that display for volume when I press volume up/down/mute with the zero and line through it.
    I've owned Macs for over 10 years and this is the first time I've seen this. Very, very strange so any help possible is appreciated.
