Is there a fix yet for the no sound problem with lion on the iMac without having to restart every time I switch the computer on?

Try booting in Safe Mode by holding the the shift key immediately after powering on your system. Safe boot mode will for a directory check of your startup volume, then load only the required kernal extensions (kext files), and deletes some cache files. Once the system boots into Safe Mode you can simply restart the system to see whether the issue has been resolved.
If you still have the issue try resetting the SMC by shutting down the system and disconnecting the power cord for ~15 seconds, then reconnecting the power cord. Next, reset the parameter RAM (PRAM) by holding down the option-option-P-R keys after powering ON the system. Wait until the iMac restarts twice, then let the system boot normally.

  • Is there a fix yet for the loss of battery power after updating to Lion?

    Is there a fix yet for the loss of battery power after updating to Lion? I've done the cmd-opt-shift restart and it didn't help.  This problem has gone beyond annoying now - it is absolutely maddening!    What is Apple's official response????

    Chris: your friends are woefully uninformed, and no one should pay any attention to their bad advice.

  • IPod restarts every time I click the center button

    Every time I click the center button to go into the music folder, my iPod restarts, so I can't get into those files. It sometimes happens when going in to the extras folder as well. What do I do?!

    Do you have any podcasts on your ipod?
    My nano has a very strange problem with resetting too, whenever I transfer a podcast to the ipod, listen to them using the 'Podcasts' folder itunes makes in the ipod's music folder(not playlists, but in the root music menu, before playlists), then delete just the podcast itself instead of the whole podcast folder, then I try going back into the music menu on the ipod, it restarts every time.
    Only fix I've been able to come up with is just creating a new playlist for just podcasts, and putting my podcasts in that playlist and deleting the 'Podcasts' folder that itunes creates everytime I transfer a podcast to the ipod.

  • My iphone restarts every time i open the notification center

    the phone restarts everytime i slide down the notification center

    I have figured out work around for iphone restating every time i open the notification center..
    go to iphone >> Settings >> Notification Centre >> TODAY VIEW >> Calendar Day View ( turn this off )
    this temporary solution worked for me and when turn on Calaender Day View, restart problem starts again.
    So, I believe its IOS problem, please Apple look into it as turnning off Calender Day View is not the option.

  • My iTunes 10.6.1.7 automatically restarts every time I close the program.  I have to open the Task Manager to close it and keep it closed.  Any suggestions to fix?

    I have closed the program repeatedly, but every time I do it reopens within a few seconds.  The only way I have found to make the program STAY closed (not using memory and CPU time) is to force it to close in the Task Manager.

    Do you have Logitech gaming software installed on the PC? If so, perhaps try the suggestion from the following post:

  • Is there a fix yet for Firefox so it can play videos on websites with "Hotlink Protection"? It's been 9 years now and still no fix.

    How come Firefox still hasn't come up with a fix for it to be able to play videos from websites that have "Hotlink Protection"? The error "Video not found" always comes up. This has been like this for almost 8 or 9 years now. (I'm probaby off by a year or two). Internet Explorer, Google Chrome, Opera, Safari, etc... all have no problem whatsoever and can play the videos easily.

    Applecare on the phone is torturous, I spent an hour getting redirected back and forth between 3 different departments each saying "This isn't my area, you need to talk X department" or "why did they send you back to me?" Then you get disconnected.
    The nearest apple store is about 2 hours away. If I'm near it again, I'll stop by. I was just hoping either the problem was patched or someone online knew how to fix this infamous problem yet.

  • HT1199 Hi. I've got an issue with Pages running on Mavericks on Macbook air. Every time I open the app it hangs right there and I can't do anything on it. I've uninstall and install it back again but the issue still persists. Any help please?

    HI. I've got an issue with Pages running on Mavericks. Everytime I open it up it just hangs right there and I can't do anything with it. I've deleted the app and installed it back again but the problem sitll persists. Any help please?

    Thank you so much for helping,
    But i really wonder how you did that. did you always switch between design view and preview view, then change the key position for 2px then switch back, to align the four letters? because i imagine that can get really frustrating, if you have a logo consisting of 58 parts instead of 4!:)
    Anyway thank you very much for your time and effort!!!!

  • I recently updated my MacBook Pro and now it says I need to restart every time I turn the computer on.  It is on a grey screen.

    I have not used my MacBook Pro for a few months and when I started it up did all the microsoft and system updates.  Now it will not turn on and it goes to a grey page that state "You need to restart you computer. Hold down the Power button untilmitmturns off, then press the Power button again." I have done this several times and keep arriving at the same page. 

    OK, then there is little else to do other than to reinstall OS X.
    Make sure you removed everything connected to the MBP including any USB devices.
    If your Mac came with a System Install DVD, then insert it and hold the c key while starting your Mac. This will boot from the DVD instead of your internal disk.
    If you find the grey screen reappears then it may not have restarted from the disc, so try again. You have to get past this step to do anything. If you can't, the problem may be a dirty or damaged DVD or an inoperative optical drive.
    When it gets to the Mac OS C Utilities screen, select Disk Utility and repair your hard disk. Record any errors that it finds, since your problem may be due to a failed hard disk. If that is the case, the failure will probably arise again.
    Then, reinstall OS X. Reinstalling is non-destructive to your user accounts or data.
    If your Mac is running Lion, or Mountain Lion, you can boot OS X Recovery and perform all the above without a disc.

  • How do I get the tabs to have the correct name of the webpage without having to reconfigure each time I open the browser

    Ever since I downloaded the latest Firefox, the tabs for various web pages are often misnamed. For instance, I'll be visiting a page and the tab will be named Google or Wikipedia or the name of a Firefox page! I have to click the tab to see what page I have loaded. When I'm working in a browser with several tabs going, I'd like to see the correct name of the page ON THE TAB.
    I've gone in under tools and tried to assign the appropriate names of the web pages but this is ridiculous! Not only is it a waste of time to have to configure the correct name for each web page I visit, but it will revert back to the incorrect default names mentioned above.
    In older Firefox browsers this was NEVER a problem. Is it because the latest Firefox doesn't like Windows XP? Please give me a good and final fix for this. Like I said, I've tried to reconfigure the names of the tabs, but the names don't stick.

    Thanks for your suggestions. I tried them both and neither fixed the problem. Any other ideas?

  • Is it possible to sync an IPod to an IPad without a desktop as every time I sync the IPod normally, I lose songs?

    Can you sync an IPod directly with an IPad?

    If they have been updated to iOS 5 you can. You need to have a Wi-Fi network setup.
    And you need to update iTunes to 10.5
