Internal isigght no longer working
neither ichat nor photobooth thing there is an isight connected to the computer even though I can see that it is buit into my macbook. Problem sounds similar to the unresolved problems of others.
When the speakers are not working, look in the audio output port. If there is a red light, the switch is stuck and has to be tripped. Insert an earphone jack a few times.
Also try a PRAM reset:

Optical out/internal speakers no longer work
Hello,
I was wondering if anyone could help, my macbook now believes that there is an opitcal lead in the jack all the time - and so the internal speakers no longer work, i can plug in headphones and the optical but when everything is removed then no speakers - its just set at optical out.
any ideas would be most welcome as i would rather not spead money on repair or just it sent off for ages - thanks
craigwhen you turn the machine on with nothing in the audio out, do you get a startup sound?

Internal microphone no longer works-G6031EA
The internal mic on my G6031EA is no longer working,I am sure it worked when I first puchased the machine. I now want to use Skype but do not have the use of the internal microphone.I have gone through all of the recomended checks and all seems to be ok, it tells me that the speakers and microphone are both enabled and working. Has anyone any ideas what might be causing the problem? I would be gratefull for any advice.
Regards
Alsame problem on my iMac 27 late 2012 nothing works to solve it. very angry yosemite is not a good OS

I use my internal microphone on my MacBook Pro very often, especially in programs like GarageBand, Audacity and Photo Booth. However, yesterday after attempting to use Skype (for the very first time) my internal microphone does not work properly in any program. The only time it responds is when I tap the area directly above the microphone.
- I've already checked the settings in System Preferences
- I deleted all files associated with Skype
- I've tried holding the "option + command + r + p" while starting the computer
- I've delete the "com.apple.soundpref.plist" file in the user library
Has anyone else encountered this problem and knows of a definite fix, or can someone at least offer any other suggestions that may work?
Thank You!The only time it responds is when I tap the area directly above the microphone.
Sounds like a hardware problem. Take the computer to an Apple store or an AASP. Whichever is more convenient for you. If you have Apple Care or your computer is still under warranty, call them up and let them deal with it. -
I have a Gateway ZX4971 that came from factory with Windows 7 installed, all specs and windows component info is below.
Everything worked fine for over a year then windows applied an update and I no longer have sound coming from my headphone jack or internal speakers.
I have tried restoring the system back to before the update and it didn't make a difference. I have also reinstalled windows and still no sound.
Audio troubleshooter does not discover any connection issues.
There are no errors in device manager, speaker properties, or Audio Properties.
Volume Mixer shows audio is being played with sound indicator.
I must use a USB audio dongle and external speaker to have soundHi,
According to your description, since system reinstallation is not helpful, it's probably a hardware problem, it would be better to check if it is the device itself problem.

Internal speakers no longer work in 10.5.7 (17 inch MacBookPro)
I have a MacBook Pro 17 inch 2.4 GHz Core 2 Duo (model MacbookPro3.1)
After installation of 10.5.7, the system does not seem to recognize the built in speakers anymore. The sound preferences panel only shows "Digital output" as an option, volume cannot be changed, the audio port lights up red whenever I try to play sound. The system acts as if digital optical output is connected while the port is empty.
If I plug in headphones (normal iPod headphones, not optical), they work and the sound is adjustable. So the system does switch to analog in that case. But when I unplug them again, everything reverts back to digital output, volume no longer adjustable, red glow in the port, no sound.
But: the startup chime does come out of the internal speakers!
Any ideas on how to get my speakers back to normal functionality?
Thanks,
Michel ColmanHi,
I have the same problem but in the opposite direction.
My internal speakers work just fine, but my system does not recognize the inserted headphone any more (even when i plug in my headphone the sound continues to come from the internal speakers).
I explained my problem in this thread:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2028346&tstart=0
Do you have any suggestions?
Have you found a solution?
Thanks -
I have several Mac Book Pros that I am responsible for. They will no longer recognize the camera in SmartBoard and in Smart Bridgit since updating to 10.8.5. One of the machines is even running 10.9 and it still won't work. I have teachers who are very frustrated because they wish to use the Bridgit Software in their classrooms. Skype appears to be working fine. It is just the Smart Board Software.
Hey there MelAllen,
It sounds like you need help troubleshooting the built in camera on some of the computers there. I want to recommend the troubleshooting steps outlined in this article named:
How to Troubleshoot iSight
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2090
Built-in iSight cameras
These steps are for iSight cameras that are built into a computer, such as the iMac G5 (iSight) or later, the MacBook, or MacBook Pro.
See if the issue is application-specific.
Try another application (iSight works with applications like iChat, PhotoBooth, and iMovie HD 6) to see if the iSight camera exhibits the same behavior in all applications. If it only happens in one application, try reinstalling that application.
See if the issue is user-specific.
Test your iSight camera in another user account. If the issue only occurs in one user, the issue would be isolated to user settings.
Find out if the computer recognizes the iSight
Check System Profiler (in the Utilities folder, inside the Applications folder). Under the USB header, check to see if the iSight camera is detected.
Reset SMC or PMU
Reset your computer's SMC or PMU, and then check System Profiler again. (SMC reset instructions for iMac G5 (iSight), Intel-based iMacs; PMU reset instructions for MacBook and MacBook Pro.)
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.

Microphone no longer works after upgrade to windows 8.1
After upgrade to windows 8.1 my internal microphone no longer works.
I tried installing updates suggested in other posts with similar driver problems but they did not work.
HPSupportSolutionsFramework-en-11.51.0048 did not work.
My internal microphone is IDT High Definition Audio Codec
When I go through the control panel and look at it - it shows a status of "not plugged in"
Please help

[SOLVED]Laptop Internal SD card reader no longer working
Two weeks ago I purchased a Raspberry Pi and set up my own SD card with Arch Linux ARM using the directions at http://archlinuxarm.org/platforms/armv6/raspberry-pi with the internal SD card reader on my laptop and had no issues. Today I decided to load up a XBMC distro to a new SD card, but my internal card reader doesn't seem to autodetect or mount my new card. I tried inserting my other card with Arch ARM that I know is a good card, but it no longer works with that card either. Here are all my logs that I could think of to post for any advice:

It seems I have all the necessary information, but I am not sure where to go from here. It's obvious my laptop is detecting the card being inserted and removed, but the card reader is never listed in /dev so I can't mount it. It's listed under lspci but not under lsusb. I'm assuming that it was two weeks ago and that's why it worked, but I'm not sure how to get lsusb to detect it so it will work again. Thanks for any help you guys have.

The computer my iTunes account was locked to no longer works
As the title says my computer that has all my tv shows and that on no longer works.
I was reading when I bought the tv series and that, that its locked to one computer only. So what happens now that its broken?
Do I have to rebuy everything when I get a new computer or am I able to re download once I get a new computer?
Is there anything I can do?
thanks
penguincatContent is not locked to a single computer. You do, however, get only one download per purchase for any content other than apps and iBooks. So unless you have a backup, as iTunes itself advises you to make, or have those shows on an iOS device, you may indeed have to repurchase them.
If you lack a backup and an iOS device with those shows, your best hope is that the hard drive in your old computer still works. If it does, you can mount it to your new computer, either internally if there's room for another drive or in an external case. You should then be able to drag the TV shows and any other content from the old hard drive into the iTunes window in your new computer. Once there, all you should have to do is authorize the computer to your iTunes Store account (Store menu in iTunes -> Authorize This Computer).

Since the latest update, most of my third party apps no longer work, none of my photo software, torrent programs, open office, NOTHING!! It is most frustrating - is there a way to 'downgrade' and go back to a previous version of the firmware, or am I just stuck with no apps that work?
They just don't open, and i get an error message like this:

Firefox 7 is forcing me to fill out a form field that isn't required. I've used FF on this site for years but when I upgraded to FF7 it no longer works. IE it works fine.
It's our internal applicant tracking systems (resume database). It works fine in IE and all previous verisons of FF but in FF 7 a bubble icon pops up stating that "Please fill out this field".
The field is not required but states "Require all of these words" if you to run a search based on those parameters. -
How do I stream music from non-iTunes apps to Airport (mac air core-i7 OS 10.7.5 airport firmware 7.6.1 --- option-clicking speaker icon only shows internal speakers - audio streaming works from iTunes just fine.
Hello Achates:
I did not read the rather long post. If you wish to reinstall OS X 10.4, use your software install DVD. Backup is essential. To minimize your risk, I would use an archive and install:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=107120
In that way, you will have a fresh copy of OS X and your current settings will be preserved.
Incidentally, I do not agree that the printer problem is best solved by reinstalling OS X. I have had HP printers for sometime and, on one occasion, had difficulty after an upgrade. HP technical support walked me through uninstalling all traces of the HP driver and then reinstalling.

[SOLVED] Openbox autostart no longer working since upgrade
After the upgrade on May 14 2013 my autostart file no longer works. I tried renaming my autostart.sh to just autostart no luck. There is nothing wrong with the autostart file as I can run it manually and it will load all my apps. Also, if I cd to /usr/lib/openbox/ and run openbox-autostart directly it works. Here are the updated packages:

Edit: I tried switching to bash in a tty and then just startx but that doesn't help either.
Edit2: To be clear openbox does load a desktop. The autostart scripts at ~/.config/openbox/ just don't run. Thanks.
Edit3: I decided to run the command issued in openbox-session and added --debug to it. Here is the output of "xinit /usr/bin/openbox --debug --startup "/usr/lib/openbox/openbox-autostart OPENBOX" "$@" -- :1 -nolisten tcp" :

Edit4: Removed everything from /etc/xdg/autostart and ~/.config/autostart/ directories. That didn't work.
Edit5: Tried installing xorg-xsetroot to let openbox set the color of the wallpaper. That didn't work.
Edit6: Checked the output of "loginctl show-session $XDG_SESSION_ID" to make sure that wasn't the issue. Looks okay to me:

Edit7: Tried installing xorg-xrdb thinking maybe that would help and did todays updates. No luck yet.
Edit8: Kupfer still loads even though nothing else does. So I uninstalled kupfer. Same thing though. No autostart.
Edit9: Tried booting into repo kernel instead of ck kernel. Didn't work.

Well, since it worked fine even when called indirectly through openbox-autostart and since it's worked fine for months I figured it was fine. I am happy to post it though. Here you go:
feh --bg-scale /home/dodo3773/Pictures/blacksolid.png &

Here are the external scripts that are called (startupopen.sh and temp_throttlenew):

Stuff that needs sudo is in my sudoers as "username hostname NOPASSWD: item1,item2,etc,etc". Nothing too exciting. Seems like if there was suddenly something wrong with my autostart file at least some of the stuff would run either way though cause of "&". Pretty puzzling this issue is.
