I have no sound from my macbook air

i got my macbook air for christmas, i have barely anything on this computer, but i notice that if i plug headphones in and then unplug i get NO sound from the computer??.. then i plug in the headphones and no sound there either =( . Do i need to take my computer back or am i missing something really easy?

Update to 10.9.2 , sporadic issue resolved from my testing.
upper- left ,  "software update"
10.9 and 10.9.1 in some instances would lose sound IF you sleep your Air with phones attached.
resolved from all indications in 10.9.2 just released couple days ago.
Peace

TS3276 I have no sound on my MacBook Air for sending and receiving messages. All sound settings have been checked and are OK. This problem has arisen many times and is intermittent in the sense that the sound returns and disappears for no apparent reason.

Open System Preferences > Sound > Sound Effects
Select: Play user interface sound effects
And make sure the Mute box is not selected.
Now open Mail. From the Mail menu bar clik Mail > Preferences then select the General tab.
Make a selection from the: New messages sound pop up menu.

No sound from my Macbook Air. When I go to system preferences and click on Sound Output there are no devices to select from and the Mute box is checked.

There is no sound from my Macbook Air even when I turn it on. When I go to System Preferences and click on Output there are no options. The Mute box is also checked, but I cannot uncheck it. Also when I try to play any video from the web, it stops playing after a second or so. I have turned off my computer and turned it on again which did not help.

I have deleted iPhoto from my MacBook Air. When I try to reinstall it, itunes tries to charge me. Is there a way to reinstall the old version for free?

depening on what OS you're running you should be able to reinstall it without charge since it's part of the operating system. if running 10.6.8 or earlier you will need to use the applications install disc if there is one or if you only have one disc you can put it in and do a reinstall of the OS which will put the iphoto back on. if running 10.7 or 10.8 can sign into the app store w/ the same apple id that is associated w/ the mac and it should show in your purchases for you to reinstall it. you may need to click on the accept button if it appears next to the iphoto in your purchase listing.

Hi there. If you have save file selected in word you should be able to find it. Here is some options. http://superuser.com/questions/845543/accidentally-clicked-dont-save-in-new-word -document You could select the finder, then Go from the top menu and then go to folder from the drop down list. Then type in private/var/folders then enter.

My apple tv was previously and now all of the sudden stopped playing sound from my macbook air via airplay

I was using airplay to stream from my macbook air on my tv via apple tv and when i paused the sound stopped and now will not resume. I have reset both and both are fully updated. Please help

Dowload the program BEAMER, its far superior to AIRPLAY, theres a free 30 day trial. See if it works on that. Beamer is the best app for wifi of VIDS to your AppleTV
http://beamer-app.com/
also, try a diff VID format, AIRPLAY doesn’t support all VID formats (beamer does however).
I cant live without beamer, you can multitask on your Mac WHILE beaming high-def to your Apple TV, ….Airplay wont do that reliably.
Process of elimination diagnosis!

I can't connect the sound from my macbook air to the base station

In system preferences the option for the base station comes up, but it will not let me click on it.

Is your goal to stream iTunes from your MacBook Air to your AirPort Express Base Station (AX)? If so, check out the following Apple Support article to be sure that you have everything configured properly. Please post back your results.

Migration from old macbook air

I have just brought an iMac and wanted to move all the documents from my old macbook air onto the iMac to free some space from the air. I have used the migration assist to transfer the documents across however it has deleted all my new iMac settings. Will I have lost new software and apps etc that came with the new iMac? Is there a way I can just have the documents from the macbook air without all the settings and old things that were on the macbook air? I want to restore all the settings I had before the migration on the iMac but keep the documents - please help!!! Worried I have ruined my new iMac!
Thanks
Hannah

Start over, booting into Internet Recovery mode, wipe the HD, reinstall the OS, and, on first boot, follow the steps in Pondini's Setup New Mac guide to migrate your stuff from the MBA.
27" i7 iMac (Mid 2011) refurb, OS X Mavericks (10.9.4), ML & SL, G4 450 MP w/Leopard, 9.2.2

I have a new Macbook Pro - trying to migrate files etc from my Macbook Air using a Thunderbolt Cable between the two. I follow the directions but the two computers never "discover" each other. WiFi connect works but 70 hours is a rough deal.

Click on the blue Internet Recovery in nbar's post. That is a link to what computers can run Internet Recovery.
Do a backup, preferable 2 separate ones on 2 drives. Boot to the Recovery Volume (command - R on a restart or hold down the option/alt key during a restart and select Recovery Volume). Run Disk Utility Verify/Repair and Repair Permissions until you get no errors. Reformat the drive using Disk Utility/Erase Mac OS Extended (Journaled), then click the Option button and select GUID. Then re-install the OS.
OS X Recovery
OS X Recovery (2)
When you reboot, use Setup Assistant to restore your data.

Did you turn off extensions, too? Safari Preferences > Extensions tab

I have just upgraded from a Macbook to a Macbook Air. I have been using a iomega external hard drive for Time Machine, which use a Firewire. However, Macbook Air's do not have a Firewire port and i cannot find an adaptor anywhere. Can anyone help?? Thanks

There has never been a reliable firewire ---> USB adapter suitable for external high speed storage. This was a major issue when the MacBooks lost the firewire port a number of years ago (Apple subsequently brought it back).
The only high speed port on the Air is the ThunderBolt port. There are external ThunderBolt drive options out there, but they're somewhat more expensive than traditional USB/FireWire options.

Log into the app store using the Apple ID you used to set your computer up. Look under purchases. If it is not there you may need to accept it or to unhide it
