I keep loosing absolutely ALL sound from my mac using Garageband

I am just trying to create 1 track, something very simple nothing fancy...
I am only using Garageband NOTHING else is running, but from the start the track is orange, anyways I try to trim the length a little and in a few minutes I get that message that says something like too many vocals or instruments.
I loose all my sound, I try internet, itunes and the Garageband and get no sound what so ever!
The only way to get sound back on my mac is if i restart it or shut it down completely which is very annoying.
By the way once I loose sound in Garageband if I hit the space bar for the track to play I get a weird clicking sound, like if I were double clicking on my pad even though I am not touching the pad at all.
PLEASE HELP!!!

Yup, me too. This has been happening ever since I got MB 1.5 year ago. No fix yet.

How can i import a music CD including all sounds from 5Hz to 30KHz?

In order to be really lossless what configuration must be used?

+"how can i import a music CD including all sounds from 5Hz to 30KHz?"+
+"In order to be really lossless what configuration must be used?"+
That is two different questions. If you want "lossless," which is defined as being sonically equivalent to the source CD, iTunes has 3 choices, as thicks noted.
However, that does not provide frequency content as high as 30 kHz, since normal CD encoding is based on 44/16 PCM, and rolls off well before that. If you want all those frequencies, you have to use studio quality masters based on 192/24 encoding, which is far beyond iTunes's capabilities to handle.

When I open a music in itunes got a message "connecting to apple tv" and got no sound from my mac

When I open a music in itunes got a message "connecting to apple tv" and got no sound from my mac.

AirPlay isn't anything to do with homesharing. (Home sharing lets you share the iTunes libraries on computers)
Basic AirPlay: Assuming both devices are on the same network and that AirPlay is not turned off on the Apple TV, then simply tap on the screen when you are watching content you wish to stream to your Apple TV, then tap the airplay icon that appears in the control bar, choose the Apple TV from the menu that appears.
Mirroring: When displaying the content you wish to mirror on the iPad 2 (or better), iPad Mini, iPhone 4S (or better), double tap the home button (quickly) and swipe the bottom row of apps to the right to reveal the playback controls, tap the AirPlay icon and select your Apple TV from the list of available devices.
Try the following steps, check whether things are working after each step where appropriate, before trying the next.
Check AirPlay is turned on on the Apple TV (turn it off and on if it already is)
Check that both devices are on the same network (Settings > Wifi, on the mobile device and Settings > General > Network, on the Apple TV).
Restart the Apple TV (Settings > General > Restart).
Restart the Apple TV by removing ALL the cables for 30 seconds.
Restart your router.
Restart your mobile device.

Outputting 5.1 Channel Surround Sound from your Mac

How to output 5.1 Channel Surround Sound from you Mac...

I have been using my MacBook Pro via HDMI into my pioneer av amp which is set up for 5.1.
I have been able to output 5.1 audio with Logic Pro and FCPX no issues at all after you setup the audio midi utility for 5.1. This setup is via PCM 5.1 audio not to be confused with Dolby 5.1.
It works great. If you want to play your edited exported movies from Final Cut Pro x in surround then it gets a bit tricky. I export the movie with FCPX as master video with the 5.1 audio then use HandBreak set to atv3 to encode / compress the video. This is great because handbreak folds the 5.1 into a stereo AAC track and also encodes the 5.1 mix into Dolby 5.1 AC3 track so both stereo and surround tracks are embedded in the movie file. So if you have an Apple TV it will play the movie with its surround track. If you play the same HandBreak compressed movie out of your Mac via hdmi to your surround amp it will only play the stereo track if you are using iTunes or QuickTime and I believe this is because of copy protect and Dolby license issues. iTunes will play a purchased movie from the itunes store in surround via your Macs hdmi to receiver setup but will only play the stereo track of the movie you exported from HandBreak even though it is set up just like an iTunes movie. To get your HandBreak movie to play in Dolby surround from your Mac all you need is VLC player, then you have to go in and select the Dolby track and the output in VLCs audio settings and bingo your HandBreaked movie then plays out of your Mac in Dolby surround. Once you set your Mac up for 5.1 mixing your amp will show your outputting 5.1 via the mac but again this is PCM audio 5.1 and apps like FCPX, Soundtrack Pro, Logic Pro will work.

Can I use the Airport express w/s for all sound on my mac?

Hey y'all!
I have another one, can you select such that all sound on your mac goes through the airport express and the speakers connected to it? Or can it only be used in connection with i-tunes?
Might be a simple stupid question, but I have trawled through most discussions concerning airport, and gave up on the help files, no one seems to have asked.... So... Any bright ideas? I am sure you macboffins know right?
Cheers and happy easter,
Bloggs

iTunes is the primary program for streaming music from the mac to the airport and is the best out there considering that it was written directly by the vendor who made the product.
Having said that though, when you asked the question it kinda got me thinking as to whether or not it could be done, after looking briefly on the internet i did come across this link:
http://www.rogueamoeba.com/airfoil/mac/
This link seems to advertise a company which has designed there own software to work and stream any sound from the mac (or windows machine) they do both across the airport express.
Not sure good it is, but the company seems to be quite confident in it considering they are trying to sell it. I myself will be sticking with iTunes as i feel no need to line another companies pockets with money when they are trying to make money off apples hardwork.
Hope this helps.

When I call someone using FaceTime from my mac, they can see me but no hear me. Is there something I need to do to make this happen? I also have an iPad 2 and FaceTime works great on it if I call somebody. Why no sound from my mac FaceTime using a mac pro

When I call someone using FaceTime from my mac, they can see me but not hear me. Is there something I need to do to make this happen? I also have an iPad 2 and FaceTime works great on it if I call somebody. Why no sound from my mac FaceTime using a mac pro and isight camera, mike combo.
If I use google it works. If I use Ichat, it works. If I use skype it works.

This sounds like something similar to https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3388112?start=105&tstart=0.
Try turning down the speak volume (System Preferences->Sound->Output->Output Volume) or the microphone gain (System Preferences->Sound->Input->Input Volume). Do this on both sides of the call.

I have a new Macbook Pro. All data from prior Mac was migrated to new Mac. If I run Time Machine and "inherit" the old backups will TM take up where I left off, or delete and overwrite the current data?

I have a new Macbook Pro. All data from prior Mac was migrated to the new Mac. I want to continue Time Machine on the new Mac and retain the history. An option is to "inherit" the old Time Machine. I want to make sure this does not errase the current data, but creates a current backup.

Please visit Pondini's Time Machine FAQ for help with all things Time Machine.

Just got new macbook pro (13inch) and restored all data from old mac via time machine. Now whenAudio drop out for 3-4 secs every 10 - 15 secs!! What is going on and what can I do?

Just got brand new macbook pro (13inch) and restored all data from old mac via time machine. Now when I p/back a track in logic I get audio drop out for 3-4 secs every 10 - 15 secs!! What is going on and what can I do? Its the same version of logic and all other functions seem fine!

First of all, why did you say yes to Nero Back up before researching what it does with files already on the HDD? When I install Nero, the Back Up is the first thing I disable, it is a nagging pain, there are much better backup programs available. There are several file recovery programs out there to recover deleted files, that is, if that is what happened. Also, if you haven't overwritten the files, so you should be able to find them.

Did you ever find a resolutution to your issue? I have a similar issue after installing Mavericks where the Arris modem goes to sleep when my iMac does, even though other devices on the network are actively requesting data. For the time being, as long as the iMac doesn't sleep the network is fine.

I'm trying to clone a internal hard drive from another mac using a usb connection.

I'm trying to clone a internal hard drive from another mac using a usb connection to an external drive so that I don't lose the file before reinstalling the software but I keep on getting a message:
"Restore Failure
Source volume is read-write and cannot be unmounted, so it can't be block copied."
Any advice on how to make a copy of this internal drive?
Thanks!
....also the internal hard drive i am trying to copying run on a mac os x 10.5 and i'm reinstalling the software because the computer is not starting and only shows a grey folder with a question marks inside.

I've had my Maxtor external OneTouch 250GB for about 18 months now and it hasn't skipped a beat. I have hear of people having their Maxtor drive just up and die but you will probably find that goes for all manufacturers.
By the way, Maxtor is, amongst others, an OEM supplier to Apple.

Why cant i print from my ipad using airport express but i can print from my mac using the express

Because your printer has to be Airprint compatible and connected to WiFi. There are applications, such as Printopia, that will allow you to print through your computer.
