Intermittent loss of sound (not the video/sound problem)

Hi -
I just got my third ipod (30G ipod with video) two days ago and I've encountered an issue.
Twice so far, after pausing my ipod for 10-15 minutes and then going to resume, I have lost all sound output. The first time it happened, the ipod showed progress in the song - but the second time, although the icon showed that it was playing, there was no movement in the progress bar.
All menu functions work properly and promptly - it's not just a freeze. I tried four different sets of headphones, all with the same result. The only thing I have not yet determined is whether the problem appears when the ipod is docked and audio is not going through the headphone port.
A reset seemed to resolve the problem, but I don't much relish the idea of having to reset the thing every day, especially when I have a 4G color that has NEVER had to be reset. This happens in regular audio mode (I know an issue exists with sound and video synchronization, but that hasn't been my problem).
I am considering rolling the firmware back to 1.0, but I am wondering if the problem might not be either related to the hard disk or even the headphone jack itself (each time the problem manifests, it has been after headphones were removed and later replaced.)
Any ideas, or is this a known issue? A quick search here and at ilounge yielded mostly discussions about the video sync problem. Any help would be appreciated!
Thanks!

Finally... someone with nearly the same problem as I'm having with my 30G 5G ipod. You can read about it here:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=1868779
and here:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=1930370
I say nearly because my problem doesn't exhibit itself every time or I would have taken it to the Apple store and showed them. But this problem of yours sounds alot like mine. I used to think it was related to charging it hence the title on my first thread. But now I too think it's related to the ear plug jack. There is something about the sensor in it and the fact that it is a plug that has like 3 or 4 outputs, I wonder if the seating of the plug has to be right or it shorts out something just enough to screw up the audio. My second thread suggests my problem is related to the case I use which has material around the hole but not covering it. You insert thru the hole in the case and into the hole in the jack. The seating may not be 100% which may cause issues. You didn't mention a case...does yours have one?
Like you, I too had to soft reset the ipod to get it out of this wierd mode. Someone else suggested that when it happens turn off the ipod, pull out the plug, then re-plug it in, turn on the ipod. I have lately found that most of the time if I just unplug and replug the jack it clears the problem. I haven't had it fail enough times to see if this solution will fail or not. See if it helps your situation.
Let me know about the case question.

I have downloaded latest firefox browser and flash player. But when playing video in youtube, I could only hear sound not the video. Upon checking the plugins, the flash player is installed.........pls help me to solve this problem

couldn't do anything to the video toolbar, only black screen

This is the most reported problem this week. Here's an entire thread of solutions that may or may not work:
https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/questions/776670
Looking through the thread, it seems like several different problems all manifesting themselves in the same way. Some people had to disable hardware acceleration in Flash, others had to delete their profile, and others yet just had to clear their cache... makes no sense.

When I plug in my ipod touch the sound works but not the video

I got this app for my kids and I want to play it on my tv the sound works not the video. But when I put the same app on my iphone 4s it works fine on my tv using same cord etc I don't know if there is something I need to do to my ipod to make it work.

The 4G iPod TV (video) out only works with apps that support TV out. The Video app is one such app. The iPhone 4S (and later iPhones, the 5G iPod and iPad 2 and later) on the other hand can mirror the iPod's screen for TV out.

Just got fcp, how do mute the sound on the video clip so it does not come through the audio track?

Please help

Don't edit the audio into the timeline. Or pull the audio level down to zero in the inspector or on the audio waveform in the timeline.

My MacBook will not play videos. No sound and the video stops after a few seconds.

My Mac book pro will not play videos. No sound and the video stops after a few seconds.

Hello GrahamBIOM,
I understand while viewing a video or listening to some different content, you lose audio, is that correct? I will do all I can to assist you with this issue.
Does the issue occur when you have headphones inserted? If you are not sure, if you have a set of headphones available could you test that please?
Please respond back at your earliest convenience with results.
Thanks

So you can ping and nslookup from your ms to these agents and vice versa right? I wouldn't do a manual install, I would push the agent from the management server. You can uninstall the agent manually, or use cleanmom to get rid of them. Then
do an install from the console. When you initiate the install from the console (management server), should it run into any issues it will dump out an error which will give you an idea of where the problem may be.
From Holmans post on this:
e MOM Server could not execute WMI Query "Select * from Win32_OperatingSystem" on

1. Ensure agent push account has local admin rights
2. Firewall is blocking NetBIOS access. If Windows 2008 firewall is enabled, ensure “Remote Administration (RPC)” rule is enabled/allowed. We need port 135 (RPC) and the DCOM port range opened for console push through a firewall.
3. Inspect WMI service, health, and rebuild repository if necessary
4. Firewall is blocking ICMP (Live OneCare)
5. DNS incorrect

When taking video the sound is a loud hiss on the playback (and when transferred/uploaded to computer) drowning out the sound of the video itself. How do I fix this?

When taking video the sound is a loud hiss on the playback (and when transferred/uploaded to computer) drowning out the sound of the video itself. How do I fix this?

I'm using the default camera app with the phone. Happens every time with videos that I take with the camera. does not occur when watching other videos, only videos taken with the phone. and when the video is uploaded to a computer or online, the hiss stays with the video.
I just bought the phone a few months ago, so this is the first time I’ve tried taking video with it. I’ve tested repeatedly to see if its intermittent but it’s constant.

Sound on the video in the ipod

Hi guys! Like most of the people that post here,i have a problem.To put video in my iPod i click "convert selection for iPod", and i synch my ipod after that.But the problem is that i have those video in my ipod but i can't hear the sound of the videos,even if i put it louder.So is there someone who can fix my problem?
thx

iTunes uses quicktime services.
Quicktime does not like muxed files(audio/video are one track).
So when you convert, iTunes/quicktime only sees the video track and converts it.
You will need to find a different piece of software to convert the files.
You can do a google search for video conversion software or just use this: http://www.squared5.com/

Kevin is suggesting that you store the projects you create while working through his book in a folder called RoboHelpProjects. It is not where you have to store every project you ever create.That is for the purposes of his book.
RoboHelp initially defaults to My RoboHelp Projects but it's up to you whether you do. Generally on the forums we advise against that as it is part of your profile and can result in excessively long path names in a few cases. Generally where authors create file names that are so long they almost serve as the content.
Projects always have a root folder, call them Project 1 and Project 2 for this purpose. You can have those folders directly off your C drive (or other local partition) or within in a parent folder as above.
Now to what you can and cannot do. You can delete a whole project by selecting Project 1 or Project 2 in Windows Explorer. Obviously if you delete the parent folder you will delete all your projects within.
What you must not do is delete individual files within a project using Windows Explorer, for that you use RoboHelp's Project Manager. The exception is if you go to Tools > Reports there is a report Unused Files. Files listed there will have to be deleted using Windows Explorer for the very good reason they do not appear in Project Manager and, therefore, cannot be deleted that way.
If you think about it, it is similar to Word. There is no option to delete a document there other than using File > Open and right clicking. Not very intuitive.

How do I mute the sound from the video camera when burning a DVD

Hi there. I'm a new user of Elements 8. I have compiled some clips and added a soundtrack to the movie, When you preview the file you don't hear the sound from the video camera but when I burn it to a DVD you still hear the video background. How do I burn the DVD without the background sound from the video camera? On the DVD I only want to hear the soundtrack I added.
Thank you,
Doug

Thanks guys. Both options worked. Dowside to deleting audio (option I went with) appears to be that you lose the audio forever. So if I ever wanted to bring the audio back I wouldn't be able to.
You are partially correct in that the Audio is no longer on your Timeline. It is still in your Project Panel, and you can move it back to your Timeline if ever needed. The complete removal from the Timeline is why I work with the Audio Mixer in cases like this. Also, on could alter the Gain on a Clip by Clip basis.
With using the audio mixer it appeared I had to mute each clip separately. When I highlighted all the clips and selected mute for audio 1 it wouldn't mute all of the selected clips.
The Audio Mixer works at the Track-level, and not at the Clip-level. That is why I use it so often - one click, or slider adjustment affects the entire chosen Track. If it did not work at a Track-level for you, something is wrong. Now, if one has Clips on different Tracks, then Muting of all of those would be required, or one would have address things on a Clip-level basis.
Any way to use the audio mixer to mute the clips in mass?
See above for how it should work, and also the exceptions - Audio on several Audio Tracks.
Good luck, and remember that your Audio still resides in the Project Panel, should you ever need it again.

When I closde a page where there has been a video, ie youtube or the like, the sound from that video that had played will continuw to run. I can close Firefox and upload it again and still will the sound of the video continuew to run. WHY?

When I close a youtube video or some other video and even after closing the tab the sound from the video continue to be played. As a matter of fact I have even closed Firefox and re-started Firefox and it plays again. I even went and turned off the computer and re-started the computer and then Firexox and the video sound was still there playing. WHY is this happening???.

Most YouTube content requires the Flash plugin. Sometimes it's necessary to uninstall then reinstall that plugin.
Uninstall the Flash plugin then reinstall new > Troubleshoot Flash Player | Mac OS
Very important to uninstall the currently installed plugin first.
Now launch Safari and try a video.
If you have the ClickToFlash extension installed, that can prevent Flash based video from streaming. It can also be installed as a plugin in /Library/Internet-Plug-Ins.
And check to see if Safari is running in 32 bit mode. Right or control click the Safari icon in your Applications folder then click Get Info. If the box next to: Open in 32 bit mode is selected, deselect, quit then relaunch Safari.
You may also need to delete the cache associated with Safari .
Open the Finder. From the Finder menu bar click Go > Go to Folder
Type or copy/paste: ~/Library/Caches/com.apple.Safari
Click Go the move the Cache.db file from the com.apple.Safari folder to the Trash.
Quit and relaunch Safari. Try a video.

I just got my replacement ipad last night. when i got home and tried the applications, there is no sound. but the videos do have sounds.

i just got my replacement ipad last night. when i got home and tried the applications, there is no sound. but the videos do have sounds. i already checked the settings. i cannot find what's causing it. please help.

You may have already checked the settings, but it still sounds like you have system sounds muted.
If you lose sounds for keyboard clicks, games or other apps, email notifications and other notifications, system sounds may have been muted.
System sounds can be muted and controlled two different ways. The screen lock rotation can be controlled in the same manner as well.
Settings>General>Use Side Switch to: Mute System sounds. If this option is selected, the switch on the side of the iPad above the volume rocker will mute system sounds.
If you choose Lock Screen Rotation, then the switch locks the screen. If the screen is locked, you will see a lock icon in the upper right corner next to the battery indicator gauge.
If you have the side switch set to lock screen rotation then the system sound control is in the task bar. Double tap the home button and in the task bar at the bottom, swipe all the way to the right. The speaker icon is all the way to the left. Tap on it and system sounds will return.
If you have the side switch set to mute system sounds, then the screen lock rotation can be accessed via the task bar in the same manner as described above.
This support article from Apple explains how the side switch works.

Adding an effect to a sound, not the entire track

Hey All, I am looking to simply add a effect to a single sound, not the entire track, is that possible with Logic? I am coming from pro tools, and I know I was able to do that there, I was hoping I could do the same here. Thanks so much!

By add effect, I assume you mean add some delay or reverb one one particular note or word. Several ways to do this. Put the effect plug-in on a bus return, and then automate the send level to come up/down for that one incident.
Another way would be to make a 2nd track (audio or midi), Insert the effect on that track, and cut the phrase or note, and move down to that 2nd track. So the whole track would be dry, and that one word, note, would have the effect on the next track.
Make sure levels are similar
