Logic stopped playing audio

Hello everybody, this is a vital question.
After the latest security update, logic stopped playing audio. After a short debug I discovered that core audio doesn't show any external interface anymore, so any other song is affected. I dont know if the security update is related... Anyways Logic is gone and my songs too!!!
Audio-Midi configuration, as well as the interface related control panels, work as expected and audio is correctly played by the finder. All other software which makes use of core audio (e.g. Bias Peak) works.
My interfaces are AVID M-Audio Fast Track Ultra and, for this testing purposes, M-Audio Audiosport Duo (legacy), all with the latest drivers.
Obviously my Logic is officially bought from the App Store.
MacPro (late 2007) 7GB RAM 2 x 2,66Ghz Dual Core Intel Xeon
Mac OS X 10.7.5 (latest update)
Logic Pro 9.1.8 (1700.67) 32 bit (latest update)
AVID M-Audio Fast Track Ultra with 2.2.2 firmware (latest update)

Hey icedj,
I had that happen. I had to trash my Logic prefs, then restart Logic. It's a P.I.T.A. because you lose various settings (color settings, for instance), but it fixed the problem for me.

PROJECT BUG: Playhead skipping back 3/4 beat. Logic not playing audio

Only in one project is Logic not playing audio/the playhead is not moving forward.
The playhead moves back a few ticks when I press spacebar or click play on the transport. It does not continue after this.
Please help!

Try using the Selective Track Import feature to import each track to a new project.....

Shuffle 2 stopped playing audio podcasts

Hi. I have a Shuffle 2nd generation that just stopped playing audio podcasts. I've been listening to music and OTR and CBC Radio podcasts, and all of a sudden it stopped playing the podcasts. Music plays fine, but if I just load it with podcasts, and try to play them, my little light just blinks (saying "you don't have anything loaded!"). It still plays the music, but skips over each podcast.
The podcasts are good. I used to play the exact same ones a month or two ago - then it just stopped playing them. I can listen to the podcasts on Itunes, and can listen to them on my old Shuffle 1st generation.
Help!

ooh, I did a bit more research and found a solution for my problem.
iPod shuffle won't play podcasts if its in shuffle mode. You have to switch it to linear mode.
I did that and now it plays just fine. Hopefully that's all that was wrong with yours as well.
I must have accidentally switched mine by accident and not realized it.

Apple TV2 periodically stops playing audio

Hi
I have had an annoying problem with my Apple TV2 after upgrading to the latest firmware (6.0). When streaming video content from my MacMini Server (via ethernet) the Apple TV periodically stops playing the audio while the movie keeps playing without audio. I can solve the problem by pausing and then continuing the movie, which will bring back the audio.
I have tried to restore and reinstall the firmware (6.0) via the Apple TV because I also had problems with the Apple TV stuttering when streaming content from my MacMini, but the reinstallation of firmware did not solved the issue.
I don't know if this is somehow related to the issue, but after having updated to firmware 6.0 Netflix often ask me for my login credetials on the Apple TV. This is an issue that I also never experienced before upgrading the firmware.
What to do now?
Thanks...

So it's been a few months since I saw this thread started, and I am still having the same issues as above with my Apple TV 3. I can go a day or two and at some point, all connections just seem to error out. HBO go, Netflix, me streaming from my ipad, etc. thought they would have been addressed by now.
I have to hard reboot (power plug only) in order for it to go back to normal.
I know it's a hardware issue as I have an Apple TV 2 setup in another room and it never gives me an issue,
The weird thing is, I have the exact same setup at my office as well. An Apple TV 3 in the main conf. Area and an Apple TV 2 in our break area. Same issue - Apple TV 3 needs hard (pore Plug) reset every few days and the Apple TV 2 in the break room is rock solid for months.
Both Apple TV 3 units are at most recent 6.1 software release.
Anyone have any ideas? Think I a just going to put my Apple TV 3's aside for a while and use the 2's until it gets worked out.

Audition CS5.5 suddenly stopped playing audio?

Audition has been running perfectly for the past month since I got it,
but all of a sudden, the audio stopped playing? The tracker is still moving and the mixer levels are still jumping around like they do when you play something back?
In the preferences menu, in the Audio Hardware section,
It's only showing 'ASIO4all v2' as a device and nothing else - normally there is at least 2 or 3.
I've done everything I could think of (Yes, including turning it off and on again)
What should I do?
I have to fix this quickly as I've got quite a bit of work to do and I'm stuck until it's done.
I'm also using headphones if that helps at all.
Thanks.

ASIO4ALL is just a wrapper for other devices on your system. If you click the Settings button in the hardware preferences, it should open the ASIO4ALL control panel. You'll want to make sure the correct audio device is listed and enabled within. Sometimes, if a device is disconnected or the driver is updated, ASIO4ALL may not recognize it as the same device it was using before.
Depending on what audio device you have, you might want to try choosing MME as your Audio Driver option and selecting the device directly and see if you have a similar problem.

Logic stops passing audio after a few hours

Here's the setup:
iMac G5 1.9Ghz, MOTU 828mkII, Logic Express, 10.4.4 (i think)
I am using logic to process audio for a theatrical production. I am using two channels in and two out. The problem is, when a track has been record enabled for a long time (several hours to a day or so) it stops passing audio. Ideally I would like to just leave it as is for the run of the show (about a week) but currently the tracks need to be rearmed before each show. Is this a normal limitation in logic?
The only thing I can think of is that it might be caused when the screen goes to sleep (although it doesn't happen every time, only when I come in the next day.) I do not want to leave the screen on for a week straight if I don't have to. Any ideas?

If you've had it less tha 90 days, contact Apple support. If you have Applecare, you can talk with them for up to 3 years, but hopefully that's not needed. In the US call 800-275-2273.

For certain songs on my iPhone 4s with iOS7 some songs stop playing audio but continue playing the song almost as if it were muted. Where can I fix this? Say "Stronger" by Kanye West stops playing sound after 2:25 but it is 5 minutes long.

Basically it is just like it says. Certain songs stop playing sound after a certain point in the song but the song continues playing and ticking down like it normally would. Does anyone else have this problem?

Hi I found the answer from another post. So far everything is working find. I been trying to fix this since march,

Deleting the application rarely solves anything on Macs. A better starting point is normally to delete the preference file for the application (in Users/~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.itunes.plist) or see if you have the same problem in another user account on the computer.

Captivate 4 stopped playing audio files

I am using captivate 4 on a Windows 7 64-bit HP Pavilion laptop. I had not used Captivate in several weeks. When I went in today to work on a project, the audio no longer works. Everything appears to be fine, but there is no sound when I play the audio. I have loaded all the latest updates and I am running as Administrator in Windows XP Compatibility mode as recommended.
I would appreciate any help as I am under a tight deadline and have no idea what else to try.

When you first import your video, before you do anything, do you have a red line over the video on the timeline?
If you do have a red line as described above, your project and your video do not match

HT1689 My IPhone stopped playing any audio except the ringtone. Any ideas?

My IPhone stopped playing audio such as my music or applications with audio. The only sound it makes is the ringtone. I read some blogs where people said to plug in headphones and then unplug them. I tried that and actually had audio a couple of times but then it was gone again. Any ideas?

You could have dust, or a partical in the headphone port that is causing your phone to think there are headphones plugged in. Look into the port and gently blow it out if there is anything in it.

AIR 3.3 stop background audio when another audio app is launched?

I currently have audio playing in the background in my AIR app for iOS. My problem is that when you have the audio playing in the background, and you launch any other audio app on your phone...the audio starts to overlap because my AIR app does not stop playing audio. So when you open Pandora, Music, IHeartRadio, Youtube, etc...the AIR audio still plays.
Is this fixed in the AIR 3.3 release with the <executeInBackground> tag? Or is there another way for my AIR app to recognize that another audio app is launching? All the afformentioned apps play nice together like that.
I would think this would be grounds for not being accepted in the iTunes store.
I really need some answers because my app is set to go live soon and this will be a game changer if I cannot fix it. I will probably have to try and create it in objective C
Thanks in advance for any help!
-- I posted this in the wrong place last night and meant to post it here. --

Thanks a lot for the reply!
It is very unfortunate that there is not a solution to this. It seems that building an audio/music player app via AIR for iOS is not really feasable due to this limitation.
I would think the use case would be larger for my case because typically, when you launch a game on your iPhone, the background audio application stops the music. Or maybe just have a listener that could detect if another app was launched at least, so you could stop your AIR audio by choice. That would be great.
Do you see this as grounds for an audio app being rejected? If the background audio does not stop unless you physically go back into the app and pause it?
Thanks.

Safari will not play audio.

Safari stopped playing audio for me on my MacBook Air. The audio on the computer works because i can get audio with full volume when i play a file on iTunes. Please help me with what might be wrong.

Logic 10.0.6 Quicktime audio stops playing

I'm having an issue with Logic 10.0.6 where the QT audio stops playing along with the movie occaisionally. Especially if I change anything in the tempo window, but also sometimes when I haven't changed anything at all.
To get it to start playing again all I have to do is open up the Movie settings window and touch the volume setting slider, but that doesn't keep it from happening again. I've never had this issue with any previous version of Logic and have been running the audio this way for years.
Is anyone else having this issue, and have you found another more permanent solution?
Thanks

I have the exact same issue. I'm running Mavericks. My friend that has Mountain Lion has no issues.
Although I thought all it was doing was cutting off 4 frames in the front. But it sounds like you're saying it shifts the whole track by 4 frames, which is even worse!
Apple, fix this, please!

Streaming audio from my IPAD to my Apple TV from Rhapsody application. when Apple TV go into Screen Saver mode, about 5 minutes after that it stops playing the Audio Stream and goes into Sleep mode.

I am Streaming audio from my IPAD to my Apple TV from Rhapsody application. when Apple TV go into Screen Saver mode, about 5 minutes after that it stops playing the Audio Stream and goes into Sleep mode. I am using the Optical Out from the Apple TV to my receiver, the Apple TV is hard Wired to the Network, the IPAD is Wirelessly attached to the network (it continues to play the Audio Stream). When the Apple TV is turned back on it resumes playing once I manual select it for output from the IPAD. All device are on current releases of software. I have no Video hooked up to the Apple TV. How do I correct this?

Intermittent problems are often a result of interference. Interference can be caused by other networks in the neighbourhood or from household electrical items.
You can download and install iStumbler (NetStumbler for windows users) to help you see which channels are used by neighbouring networks so that you can avoid them, but iStumbler will not see household items.
Refer to your router manual for instructions on changing your wifi channel or adjusting your multicast rate.
There are other types of problems that can affect networks, but this is by far the most common, hence worth mentioning first. Networks that have inherent issues can be seen to work differently with different versions of the same software. You might also try moving the Apple TV away from other electrical equipment.
