HD Audio not working on Macbook Pro via Windows 8

I've tried nearly everything to get the driver working, Windows states that the best driver is in use.
http://i.imgur.com/FmQtV.jpg Here is a screen shot of the device manager.
I've tried realtek hd drivers, Cirrus drivers, enableing, disabling the driver just about everything.
Bootcamp is useless too.

Try install the newest Intel® HD Graphics Driver.

It includes the Intel displayaudio driver and some people solve the audio problem on Windows 8 after install this driver.
Rember backup first before test the driver.

Audio not working on macbook pro

Hi,
I have a 2007 Macbook pro. I have changed battery for this laptop twice in the past 5 years. As everyone else, I experience overheating issues. Otherwise, it has been working fine.
Today, I started using the itunes store to browse tv shows, books, and music. Suddenly I heard a big rattling noise (really loud) in my mac and it was coming from the top left side (probably the fan!). I quit the applications and shut down my laptop. When I restarted the mac, I could not listen to any songs neither from my mac nor from the internet, say youtube. No audio of any sort is working in my mac right now, not even the alert sounds.
- I checked the system preferences and could not change any output controls.
- After sometime, Ive also started noticing the red light in the headphone jack. But, this red light comes on intermittently. I tried putting my headphones in and out 3-5 times, it still did not solve the issue. The light may go off, but there is still no audio from my mac.
- Everytime I restart my mac, I hear the rattling sound. I checked my hardware, repaired the disk (using the Mac OSX disk), reset SMC, PRMV settings. None of these helped.
Im worried that my fan has gone bad and this in turn has also affected my internal audio system for some reason? I would appreciate any troubleshooting tips in this regard!
Thank you!

Well, for the red light issue, cut the end off a Q tip, or clean cut a Wooden tootooth pick(NO PAPAER CLIPS OR ANY OTHER CONDUCTIVE MATERIAL) and GENTLY "massage the headphone jack,(there is a micro switch that can hang, stop at the LEAST amount of resistance). Reboot see if that helps.
Also go to system preferences>sound>output tab and make sure the mute box is not checked, set the volume slider is at least half way up, and make sure built in speakers are selected.
If this does not solve your issue, go to utilities>Audio/MIDI set up, click putput tab, and make sure source is set to built in speakers, when selected double click on the built in speakers log out and reboot.
If you have been using Garageband, launch GB and go to GB preferences>Audio/MIDI, and select from the output tab intrenal speakers.
Here's what worked for me. It's not a workaround, this acutally solved the problem and I haven't had speaker issues since.
Go to "Activity Monitor" (you can hold "Command" "Shift" and press "U" if you're on the desktop).
Locate "coreaudiod" under "All Processes"
Right click it and click on "Quit"
After several seconds, "coreaudiod" will restart on it's own and your speakers will return to normal.
I tested this by restarting to see if it was a fluke workaround. Then I turned it off and waited a day (I had things to do so the waiting a day was easy lol). Turned it on, it was fine. I put it on sleep mode, waited 10 mins. and took it off of sleep mode. It was fine. Everything went back to normal for me.
Rattling sound is a concern for me as ths not normal, I would back up eveything, as this could br a HDD on the way out, and you want to save your data.
Also, you can try a a Pram reset:
If you have a removable battery, power doen your MBP, disconnected the power adapter, remone the battery, hold the power button down for 10 seconds, reinstall battery and mag safe and booy up.
If you have a MBP that has a non removable battery, follow the folling instructios.
Power off MBP, power it back on, holding the following keys: option, command,P,R, (no commas), press these key immediatly before the start up chime ringd, continue you to hold therse keys till you hear the start up chime ring ring 2 timess amd release.
Reboot
Since you had the battery replaced, you might want to try an SMC reset if non of the above offers any help. Power down MBP, power back up, hold the following keys before the star up chime. Left key shift,control, option, contine to hold these keys till the gear stops spinning.
Rebot.
All the best, I hoe this helps.
Let me know if this worked for you

Built in Audio not working in MacBook Pro after update to 10.7.3

The Built In Audio is not working in My MacBook Pro (Early 2011) after update to 10.7.3; I tried resetting the PRAM and SMC but it didn't helped me out. I can get audio only if i reboot my mac from Safe Mode or reboot after Repairing Disk Permissions in disk utility using the Recovery Partition;. If i make a normal restart or just startup then the built in audio disappers (audio is displayed gray in the menu bar) . Everything was working well with the 10.7.2
- Audio Works well with the Boot Camp Partition. and There is a sound during boot up.

I dont have any backups and i dont have time capsule or an external hard drive ready to be used for backup.
My macbook is my the only one computer. The problem is that the animation is lagging when i change the window to dashboard or safari or mail or another window. Inspite of this my macbook works well.
But 5 minutes ago, I noticed that if i run autocad on my mac- the lags go away!!!!

Ctrl key not working on Macbook Pro running Windows 7

Hi
Recently I took my Macbook to the Apple store to have the top case replaced because there was a problem with the trackpad. Since getting it back, the ctrl key doesn't work when I boot into Windows 7. Anybody got any solutions? I have tried fn + ctrl as well.

Thunderbolt display not working on Macbook Pro - previously the display did work

Thunderbolt display not working on Macbook Pro - previously the display did work

I have upgraded ML but when the MBP tries to restart with the upgrade the MBP does not restart so I susapect the ML upgrade is not complete ? When you refer to 10.8.5 supplemental is this a separate upgrade ? When I connect the Thunderbolt to the MBP the Thunderbolt charges my MBP & I can play music from iTunes via the Thunderbolt. It is only the display that is not working on the Thunderbolt

Generally signing out and signing in (signing out and back into the Creative Cloud application ) will fix this. If it isn't resolving the issue for you, let us know what you see and we can try something else.

External superdrive is not working on macbook pro 15 inch(2011 model) with mountain lion

Hi,
I try to install windows in my macbook pro via bootcamp, but since I installed latest osx mountain lion on it, the external superdrive doesn't work anymore( even if on the startup mode, hardware can't detect it). superdrive works on my 2009-2010 mac mini server. help!

The USB SuperDrive only works on Macs without SuperDrive, so it's not compatible with your Mac. You have to use your internal SuperDrive to install Windows

One earphone not working in Macbook pro

For some reason the audio output on my macbook pro is only working on one earphone. It is not the earphones as I have tried other earphones and the same thing happens. I had a problem recently with the output not working at all...and there was a red light coming out of the headphone jack. But the red light ended up going away on its own...and the sound came back. However...there is still only sound coming out of one earphone.

Hi again.
Nice website, except the wma files.
It is the right workflow to monitor what you mix before sending the material to the mastering studio. Although if you use Logic Pro 8 then you have compressor and can make this mastering by yourself (if you want to).
I try to say it easy: Without Light you can't paint, without suitable equipment you can't monitor an surround-mix. Only stereo is possible with your hardware. You can mix in surround in logic and listen in stereo. This is not optimal but the only chance to do this without buying an audio interface with minimum 6 outputs.

ShureSM58 not working on MacBook Pro Retina

Hello,
Basically, I have bought the Shure SM58 microphone to record audio voice on my MacBook Pro Retina, but it doesn't seem to work.. The specifications and the seller clearly told me that the audio jack included output and input, is there anything I am doing wrong or I should know of? Please help!
Michael Lafond

The SM58 uses a 3 pin xlr connector, how are you connecting to a Mac?
Where do you connect this? with some adaptor I assume (as there is no balanced microphone socket on any Mac)

IChat Theater - Audio not working - (Final Cut Pro 7)

Hello Forum
I just installed FCP 7 and am trying to get IChat Theater to work. The video comes through fine, but I don't hear the audio of FCP. Any ideas why? The audio of the mic comes through, we can have a normal chat conversation but the audio of the playback is just dead.
My setup (I am the editor):
FCP 7
OSX 10.5.6
Mac Pro (early 2009) without Video Camera, only mic
My client's setup:
OSX 10.5.6
Macbook Pro with camera and mic
Do I need to have a camera installed on my mac pro?
Any insight appreciated.
Thank you
sk

Hi Meatpuppet,
I'm having the same issue with not getting my audio through to the client on Ichat theater preveiew. I'm on a mac pro with a small DV camera attached via firewire. when I start the chat, the person on the other side sees and hears me fine, but then when I start sharing in FCP, the video switches so that the remote person sees the time line, but loses the audio from me and doesn't hear the audio from the time line...
The manual recommends "disconnecting and external video device" ( then what do us mac pro folks do?)
So my question for you, and I know that you're on and Apogee Duet, is: Was your tinkering in FCP, your system sound settings, or iChat? in other words, where was the disconnect?
thanks.

External Monitor Not Working With Macbook Pro

My computer was working fine with an external monitor, then my computer froze, and I had to hold down the power button. When I turned it back on, my computer would not work with an external monitor. I've tried different cables, so it's not the cable. The monitor is being detected by the computer, but nothing is showen on the external monitor. When connecting the monitor to the computer, the computer's screen goes blue, then turns back to normal. I
I cannot reset the SMC by removing the battery, I do not have the confidence to remove my battery, and do not have the time to send the computer to someone else to do it.
I also tried updating my OS from 10.7.4 (Might've been 10.7.3) to 10.7.5.
My computer is a MacBook Pro (13-inch, Mid 2010), running OS X 10.7.5 Lion.
I need to get this problem fixed ASAP, any help is appreciated.
Kind Regards,
Sergee237

I forgot to mention, I'm connecting the monitor via MiniDisplay -> HDMI. I've also tried USB -> HDMI and USB -> DVI -> HDMI but none of them seem to work.

Mail not working on macbook pro

I have no problem accessing mail on my iphone or ipad 2, but on my macbook pro all i get is a spinning gear wheel and a triangle telling me to verify my setting. I've looked til I'm blue in the face and I cant work it out, anyone help!

When you set up an exchange account in Mail, it automatically appends /exchange/username to the servers when it sets up your account. So, no, that's not the answer. It's not enough that you can access Outlook Webmail, there's a server-side difference between browser-based access (true webmail) and mail client-based access. Although Mail allows you to set up an exchange account, most server admins block off-network mail client access (i.e. users at home can use a web browser, but not Outlook, to access their account from their home computers). Further, Mail cannot access the Exchange server directly (if it could, you could access your account if you were connected to your corporate network via a VPN, which you could do now with Entourage).
Bottom line, unless the server admin allows access, you are not going to be able to set this up on your own. If your IT department will allow access, they will probably help you set it up (but, it will most likely be via Entourage and a VPN, unless they are pretty open about their access policies - not a common trait in IT admins).
An easier solution would be if the Exchange server is set up to allow IMAP access - but, again, this is usually not allowed for security reasons.

HT1379 internal microphone is not working in macbook pro 13"

I have a macbook pro 13"(mid 2011) currently running OS X 10.8.2. My inbuilt microphone is not working. I have tried all system preference settings and even Audio MIDI setting but still not working.

Try a commercial optical drive cleaner that is available in any store where they sell cd's/dvd's.
Reset SMC. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3964

Samsung LED Monitor TA950 not working with Macbook pro

I bought a Samsung TA950 Full HD LED 3D 27 inch monitor and trying to connect my MBP (early-mid 2009, does not support, MiniPort Audio). Connecting using MDP-DVI to HDMI to connect and MBP detects the monitor, I can see and change Display preferences. The monitor only flashes "no signal" when I disconnect the cables so something is happening...every so often my macbook pro display "flashes" momentarily as if it is recognizing a connection but a)nothing shows up in the display prefs after clicking "detect display" and b) nothing shows up on the external monitor. The monitor did worked and showed the MBP screen when I disconnect the cable, set the MBP display resolution to 1152 by 720, than connect the Miniport cable, the monitors flickers and shows the screen, and after a minute or 2, it goes black and goes in the loop of flickering and trying to detect the monitor

Hi, I got the same monitor the other day and there should be no problem getting it to work.
Use the DP to mini-DP cable supplied with the monitor.
Make sure this cable is plugged into the correct input DP port in the back of the monitor (not the DP port for daisychaining).
Make sure the DP input is selected in the inputs menu on screen.
Plug mini-DP end of the cable into Mac
Should work ...
