Itunes 6.0.4 - no sound

upgraded to 6.0.4 and now when I play any content in itunes I get no sound from the speakers (soundsticks). The speakers work in other applications and have also lost the option of whether to select remote speakers connected through airport express. all other functions of itunes seem to work fine (i.e. can transfer songs to ipod etc)

iTunes muted? Take a look at the small volume slider in iTunes upper left corner.

TS1425 My iPod Classic was working fine all day. Came home and uploaded to voice memos via iTunes, now there is no sound coming from my iPod. I've used both headphones and a docking station. The songs don't even begin, they just skip to the next one.

My iPod Classic was working fine all day. Came home and uploaded 2 files via iTunes, now there is no sound coming from my iPod. I've tried both headphones and a docking station......nothing. The songs don't even engage, they skip to the next one. I've tried rebooting the iPod and still nothing. Any ideas?

Hi, and welcome to Apple Discussions.
Have you tried resetting the PMU?
I'm not optimistic that this will help any more than the procedures you've already tried, but it won't hurt to try.
Do you still have your OS 9 installation? If so, try booting into OS 9 and see if the problems with the audio are happening there, too. If so, you can bet it's a hardware problem.
How big is your hard drive and how much space remains available on it? If you don't have your OS 9 installation in order to check out whether it's a hardware problem and you have enough available hard drive space, you may want to try an Archive and Install of the OS in order to make sure it isn't an OS X system-wide problem. If that doesn't do it, you could back up your hard drive and restore your software.
All of this may just be spinning your wheels, but it's all stuff you can try before shelling out a lot of money for repairs.

I upgraded iTunes and now my songs sound horrible - help!

I was prompted a couple of times to upgrade the version of iTunes that I have on my computer - I upgraded at least twice (if not three times). Recently I tried listening to some of my music from my computer by selecting songs from my iTunes library and the songs sounded horrible - the songs sounded like I was listening to a scratched up CD, but I know that isn't the problem because the CDs are fine and the songs on my iPod (which were never updated after I updated the version of iTunes) are fine. What's the problem and what can I do to fix this? Thanks!

have you tried working through the suggestions from the following document?

ITunes 11.1.4 movie sound distorted on windows 8.1

iTunes 11.1.4 movie sound distorted on windows 8.1, Songs play ok . I have tried all sorts turning off Sound Enhancements etc ...

Uninstall your existing copy of iTunes. Delete any copies of the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64Setup.exe) installer files from your downloads areas for your web browsers and download a fresh copy of the iTunes installer from the Apple website:
http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
(The current build of the 11.1.4.62 installer was changed a few days ago, which fixed the bulk of the reports of MSVCR80.dll/R6034/APSDaemon.exe/Error-7/AMDS-could-not-start trouble ... but the build number on the installer was not changed. So we're trying to make sure you do the reinstall using a "new good" 11.1.4.62 installer instead of an "old bad".)
Does the install with the new copy of the installer go through properly? If so, does that clear up the error message?
If you still have the same error messages cropping up, then try the procedures from the following user tip:

ITunes grey screen and no sound TV Show

I bought a Mad Men season pass on iTunes last night and let it download... this morning, I try to play it and all I get is a gray screen and no sound. I have the latest version of Quicktime and iTunes.

I had this very problem: itunes TV gray screen no sound. It seem to be an authorization glitch. After much support back and forth resolved it following these instrtuctions.
1. Quit iTunes and any other open applications until only Finder is open.
2.Choose Go > Go to Folder.
3.Type /Users/Shared/SC Info and click Go.
4. If Finder is not already set to column view, set it by choosing View > as Columns.
5. Select the SC Info folder and move it to the Trash by choosing File > Move to Trash.
6.Restart the computer and open iTunes.
7.Authorize your computer to play your purchases. Note: If you have multiple accounts you will need to authorize your computer for each account. For more information on how to authorize your computer, see this article.

How to configure itune to speaker and other sounds effect to internal speak

as subject, how to configure itune to speaker while other sound effects to internal speaker, i done it before, but cannot remember how to configure it, thanks.

after upgrading to 10.5.6, it work by setting sound effect plays on "internal speaker" while sound plays on "line-out"
thanks everyone.

Just installed lion itune plays but makes no sound thur computer. works fine thur airport devices

just installed lion, itunes plays but makes no sound thur computer. itunes works fine thur all airport devies

I have just done the same upgrade to Windows7 and I have no sound from the headphone jack. Also when I plug into it, I don't get the old Realtek Audio evaluation screen for audio setup.
However I do not use headphones, as I have been using a RCA jack to plug from the headphones output jack to
a portilble shortwave radio that I have utilized the 6 inch woofer for the past three years since buying the laptop new, for better output and base sound from the radio speaker while simultaneously running the stereo built-in speakers on the laptop.
Can someone tell me that I should just update the laptop audio card by re-installing the original Realtek Audio Driver? Is that easily accessible here in the official Toshiba site? Also if possible, please inform me of other driver updates that would most likely need re-installation processes after this Windows 7 update.
Thank you for any info,

After upgrading to itunes 7.3.2 system sound does not work

I recently upgraded my itunes to 7.3.2 and the sound worked for a short time. it then began to cut on and off until ceasing to work completely after a day or so. I have run diagnostics and my computer can produce sound, but not in any programs or any of the system sounds. i reinstalled windows xp and the sound worked, but when i installed itunes again the sound once again stopped completely. i have checked all the drivers, codecs, hardware etc. and they seem to be in order. what is going on?

I really struggled with this one and my IT people couldn't help. They suggested that I add my secure corporate website to the Java Exceptions Sites, and use the Java client, but that didn't work. I tried the CITRIX Native CLient (ICA Client) and that didn't work either. So, I searched my Mac for all of the instances of CitrixICAClient, or anything else with ICA in it. I then deleted all of those files, shut down Safari, rebooted my computer and tried again to log into my corporate site using the Native Client conenction option. I remembered from years ago, that the first time you try to connect using the native client, that Citrix plugin is downloaded. THat's exactly what happened and I haven't had any more problems. So apparently, you have to clean up a little adn make sure that any "old" citrix products are removed.

Freezing with iTunes 7.6.1, thumping sound,especially during video playback

Hi,
Has anyone noticed a decrease in system reliability after upgrading to iTunes 7.6.1, especially during video/videopodcast playback in iTunes on their MacBook Pro's?
Specifically, the entire system locks up. Reminds me of the days of OS 7.5.5 when the mouse cursor freezes, keyboard stops responding. The only way to proceed is by holding down the power button.
This has occurred about 4 times now. The trackpad will become unresponsive, keyboard buttons such as caplocks and nu lock will be unresponsive too. Most interesting is that the sound output will loop, usually a short bit of the last audio played back over iTunes.
Videos which have triggered this:
- Podcast: Diggnation
- Podcast: ABC World News Now
- YouTube video's converted by Tooble
Here's a video I recorded showing the thumping noise. It sounds like the last audio dump before the crash looped. It's not coming from the hard drive. Definitely from the speakers.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wzOCcINoClg
In the video you see I had World of Warcraft up, but I don't think it is the problem, because this kind of crash has occurred while using other programs.
Details:
iTunes 7.6.1
QuickTime 7.4.1
Mac OS X 10.4.11
2.2 Ghz (MacBookPro3,1)
4GB RAM
External second monitor attached: eMachines 15" LCD
Prefrence panes additions: Application Enhancer, Divx, FinderPop, Flip4Mac WMV, Perian, Teleport, WindowShade X.
Have NOT installed Security Update 2008-001 OR AirPort Utility 5.3.1 pending user problem reports.
I never had such a complete system freeze until about the time I updated to iTunes 7.6.1. Repaired disk, permissions, cleaned up virtual memory, cache's using AppleJack.
Thanks, just want to see if this is an isolated problem.

First, create a new user account and see if you can replicate the problem on that account.
If so, start by killing all the running daemons that aren't OS X-native apps. In other words, Window Shade X, Application Enhancer, divx, etc. Quit all that junk and use Activity Monitor to make sure those apps aren't running background tasks. I'd be willing to bet that Application Enhancer is the culprit.
See if that solves the problem. If so, you can add the applications back one by one until you find the one that's causing problems.

ITunes 11.1 problem: no sound when watching movies!

Hi there
When I try to watch video on my Thunderbolt display (27 inch) connected to my MBP Retina, everything is fine....untill I go full-screen!!! Then I don't have sound anymore, only video!
Can anyone help me out on this, or do I have to wait for iTunes 11.2???
Thanks all out there!
Sven
PS I could perfectly watch videos with sound on my Thunderbolt display with the previous iTunes.

I think I just found a solution. I'll explain what I did but you may not need to do some of the steps that I did.
First, I downloaded an older version of iTunes.
Then, I backed up my older library from the "previous" folder.
I used terminal to remove the iTunes (11) application using the rm -fr iTunes.app
Then I was able to install the previews version of iTunes that i had downloaded.
For me, this older version didn't work. It gave me an error -42408 when I launched it and it wouldn't play my rental anyway. Too HD perhaps?
So, I went into software update in the App store and upgrade to iTunes 11 again.
I rebooted, played the movie and went full screen... SOUND!
Something in that procedure makes sense. I'm just not sure what. I hope it helps.

ITunes no longer plays any sound

So basically, I logged on yesterday to find iTunes making no sound. I thought it'd just be fixed by resetting the computer, unfortunately, it hasn't.
So today I tried uninstalling and reinstalling iTunes. This also has not fixed the problem! I've also run a virus scan incase it's a virus causing this but AVG has not detected a virus!
I'm running 5.1 speakers on a custom built PC using Windows 7 32bit. Windows's volume is set to 100% as is my speakers but no sound is coming out
Halp!

I struggled with this for 2 hours. Stumbled across the following solution (Windows Vista): With iTunes open, double click the volume icon in the system tray. Click on MIXER. Make sure the volume is turned all the way up for itunes.

ITunes 8 and Windows Vista "sound effect"

So ever since iTunes 8 came out, I get that stupid annoying sound effect whenever doing anything in iTunes. I can turn off the sidebar and it will stop for the most part, but I still get it when going to the iTunes Store or going to my iPod list. I was hoping 8.0.1 would fix it, but it did not. I have searched the forums and I have disabled the TableInputService and that didn't help at all. Has anyone else found a different solution?

I have a similar problem, with my new iPod Touch crashing an XP Professional setup. It's worth noting that the Apple article also talks about potential USB conflicts with other devices on the system that might have bad drivers. They say the solution, if that is the fault, is to make sure all your USB drivers are good. I'll try that, by a process of elimination, before re-installing iTunes (as I thought I had the latest version and I don't have Vista). I'll come back here later to report the outcome.
(serious if your iPod crashed your PC - can't even charge its battery ! )

I downloaded the newest version of itunes now i have no sound on my computer

I tried doing a system restore prior to the update as well as uninstalling and restalling the software but i still have no sound anywhere on my computer

Go to your applications folder and start iTunes from there. If that works you need to drag the application to the Dock.

ITunes plays songs but the sound goes in and out on some...

Hi there,
I recently dumped my whole computer and reloaded all the programs. Upgraded from Windows Vista to Windows 7. I reinstalled iTunes and was surprised to see my music still there. Kind of weird but saved me the time to reinstall all my music. My iPod still connects and is recognized. Music plays fine on my iPod but when listening to music on iTunes while I work on my computer, many of my songs sound like parts of them are really low, or rather distant sounding, then a part sounds like it should, then it will fluctuate between the two. All this in one song.
I've checked my drivers, have the latest iTunes version. No iTunes plug-ins in the App folder. I just don't get it. I'm about to reinstall all my music but that is last resort. I've sat here for a considerable amount of time searching the discussion forums for a solution but doesn't seem to be a topic with this particular problem.
Any thoughts? Thanks for you help.

Does this happen with other computers or devices?

A video I purchased through itunes is playing with delayed sound (audio and visual is not in sync) - very fustrating to watch!

Recently purchased a brand new computer (windows 8 - with more than the minimum requirements to run itunes) and transferred my itunes library over. After transferring everything i then purchased a new release video through the itunes store and it downloaded without any problems. When I went to view the movie in itunes, it started fine but within a few seconds the sound and picture were out of sync. I paused the video for a few seconds and then when i resumed play it was back in sync but only took a fw seconds for it to all fall out of sync again - very fustrating!
The movie plays fine on my iphone...
Is there anyway of fixing this?
If not i will never be purchasing another movie through itunes!

Itunes/QT converts video from sound to no-sound

I have a video that has sound. when i convert it for ipod or when I convert in QT to ipod, it ends up converted with no sound. Any thoughts? Thanks!

iTunes and Quicktime don't much like muxed MPEG files, they lose the sound when you convert them.
Here's a post I made with some ways around this: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=1171379&#1171379
