Loss of external speakers after Yosemite download

MacBook Pro 2010.  Yosemite 10.10.  Loss of external speakers and loss of F10, 11 and 12 Function keys

Hi lmurdoch,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
In this situation I would recommend resetting your computer’s PRAM. Please use the attached article for instructions on this process.

  • Problems with sound from external speakers after iOS 5.0.1 update

    Have others experienced problems with external speakers on the Iphone 4 after iOS 5.0.1 update?  My phone no longer rings, sounds when i receive a text message, sounds alarm, etc.  Vibrate works fine and when i plug in headphones I can hear music through the headphones.  Any fixes for this?

    Hi Guys,
    I have post eariler on another forum and I have the same problem, I have tried all the things listed here and nothing was perminant in fixing this painful iphone hating problem.... and failed.  You probably have the problem when you use youtube or your music external speaker that there is no volume bar and no sound.   I have had the same problem But I need to happily say that I now have the fix!!!!  This worked for me and I fixed it by myself so you don't need to go to apple or service centre or anything.
    Ok I like so many of you here truly believed this was as IO5 issue as it only dropped the sound on the speakers once that IO5 update came along.  I tried a bunch of reset, reboots, home clicks, lock and unlocks, to fix this and all failed.  some worked for an hour but then failed.  hours of my life that I will never get back.   but since I have learnt this is not a IO5 problem but a hardware issue! ...  and in paticualar is has to do with your bottom connection.  Your phone is thinking it is docked all the time.
    To fix the no sound problem what you need is...
    1.  a torch
    2.  a tooth brush
    3.  methalated spirits
    4. a butter knife
    Step 1.
    get your torch and shine it down the bottom connection plate to see what kind of dust, sand, hair or anything you have stuck in there.   all that need to be removed!  everything!  it might look clean but still thats ok go to step 2.
    step 2.
    Turn on your music app and put the speakers on!  If your phone is like mine it should not work.  you most probably don't even have the volume display to turn it on but its ok, just do it! and it should still play with no sound.   its important you try and run the speakers as this will show you that it is a hardware problem.
    step 3.
    Dip your tooth brush into some methated sprits.   then at your sink tap the exess metho out of your brush as you just want the brushes to be slightly damp, not soaking wet and then scrub the bottom connetiors on your iphone.  work the brush back and forward in a way that scoops the dirt out of the phone, not just pushing it side to side.
    (As you bushing you should notice the volume bar come back on or off as you scub.   This happened to me and that is how I realised I was on the right track to fixing this problem as I was doing something external that was actually controling when the volume display came on or off.   but once I cleaned it this still didn't fix the problem...)
    Step 4.
    Use the back side of a butter knife (not the sharp side) to gently slide over the connectors on the iphone.  Do this gently as you are only pushing down on the tiny metal contect bars and you should notice the volume display come on again.  slide it back and forward.  Now the area of interest is about 2/3 along the connection plate to the right.   This is the area that has the infomation sent when your iphone thinks its docked.
    This has worked for me and I have not had a problem since I did this 2 weeks ago.   I have since learnt that the new IOS 5 has activated a different part of the bottom conectors.  if you have been using dodgy connectors or unapproved apple cables (as I was)  any damage or hair and dirt on the terminal this is effecting it.  Try it.   just remember if you can do something external to your phone then there lies the problem.
    Hope this works for your phone as it did for mine.
    Cheers

  • How to download i-photo after yosemite download?

    I cannot dowload i-photo 9.6 after having downloaded yosemite. what to do?

    10,000 isn't a lot of pics. AN iPhoto Library is good for 1,000,000.
    Sounds like a damaged database.
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In early versions of Library Manager it's the File -> Rebuild command. In later versions it's under the Library menu.)
    This will create an entirely new library. It will then copy (or try to) your photos and all the associated metadata and versions to this new Library, and arrange it as close as it can to what you had in the damaged Library. It does this based on information it finds in the iPhoto sharing mechanism - but that means that things not shared won't be there, so no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your events, albums and keywords, faces and places back.
    Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.

  • Still doesn't reconize my external speakers after 3.1 upgrade

    The Good:
    - Scrolling on the Magic Mouse is finally supported in Windows 7
    The Bad:
    - External speakers are still not recognized as speakers (Windows thinks they're "line-in" device i.e. Mic). Sound is forced out of the internal speakers, even though there is something connected to the headphone jack.
    How can I get Windows 7 32-bit to support my external speakers?

    I had the same problem. I found the following on a Google search. I am running Window 7, 64 bit. Here is what worked for me, though it still does not recognize my microphone, but the speakers work now. It was a very slow download.
    1. http://www.realtek.com.tw/DOWNLOADS/
    2. Click on High Definition Audio Codecs (Software)
    3. Place a check by "I accept to the above." and click Next.
    4. Download Either "Vista, Windows7 Driver(32/64 bits) Driver only (Executable file)" or "Vista, Windows7 Driver (32/64 bits) Driver only (ZIP file)" and by selecting any one of the three download sites.
    5. Either run the installer once downloaded, or unzip the files and then run the installer.
    6. Reboot when finished.

    1. This procedure is a diagnostic test. It changes nothing, for better or worse, and therefore will not, in itself, solve the problem. But with the aid of the test results, the solution may take a few minutes, instead of hours or days.
    Don't be put off by the complexity of these instructions. The process is much less complicated than the description. You do harder tasks with the computer all the time.
    2. If you don't already have a current backup, back up all data before doing anything else. The backup is necessary on general principle, not because of anything in the test procedure. Backup is always a must, and when you're having any kind of trouble with the computer, you may be at higher than usual risk of losing data, whether you follow these instructions or not.
    There are ways to back up a computer that isn't fully functional. Ask if you need guidance.
    3. Below are instructions to run a UNIX shell script, a type of program. As I wrote above, it changes nothing. It doesn't send or receive any data on the network. All it does is to generate a human-readable report on the state of the computer. That report goes nowhere unless you choose to share it. If you prefer, you can act on it yourself without disclosing the contents to me or anyone else.
    You should be wondering whether you can believe me, and whether it's safe to run a program at the behest of a stranger. In general, no, it's not safe and I don't encourage it.
    In this case, however, there are a couple of ways for you to decide whether the program is safe without having to trust me. First, you can read it. Unlike an application that you download and click to run, it's transparent, so anyone with the necessary skill can verify what it does.
    You may not be able to understand the script yourself. But variations of it have been posted on this website thousands of times over a period of years. The site is hosted by Apple, which does not allow it to be used to distribute harmful software. Any one of the millions of registered users could have read the script and raised the alarm if it was harmful. Then I would not be here now and you would not be reading this message. See, for example, this discussion.
    Nevertheless, if you can't satisfy yourself that these instructions are safe, don't follow them. Ask for other options.
    4. Here's a summary of what you need to do, if you choose to proceed:
    ☞ Copy a line of text in this window to the Clipboard.
    ☞ Paste into the window of another application.
    ☞ Wait for the test to run. It usually takes a few minutes.
    ☞ Paste the results, which will have been copied automatically, back into a reply on this page.
    The sequence is: copy, paste, wait, paste again. You don't need to copy a second time. Details follow.
    5. Try to test under conditions that reproduce the problem, as far as possible. For example, if the computer is sometimes, but not always, slow, run the test during a slowdown.
    You may have started up in "safe" mode. If the system is now in safe mode and works well enough in normal mode to run the test, restart as usual. If you can only test in safe mode, do that.
    6. If you have more than one user, and the one affected by the problem is not an administrator, then please run the test twice: once while logged in as the affected user, and once as an administrator. The results may be different. The user that is created automatically on a new computer when you start it for the first time is an administrator. If you can't log in as an administrator, test as the affected user. Most personal Macs have only one user, and in that case this section doesn’t apply. Don't log in as root.
    7. The script is a single long line, all of which must be selected. You can accomplish this easily by triple-clicking anywhere in the line. The whole line will highlight, though you may not see all of it in the browser window, and you can then copy it. If you try to select the line by dragging across the part you can see, you won't get all of it.
    Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it:

    Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
    8. Launch the built-in Terminal application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad and start typing the name.
    Click anywhere in the Terminal window and paste by pressing command-V. The text you pasted should vanish immediately. If it doesn't, press the return key.
    9. If you see an error message in the Terminal window such as "Syntax error" or "Event not found," enter
    exec bash
    and press return. Then paste the script again.
    10. If you're logged in as an administrator, you'll be prompted for your login password. Nothing will be displayed when you type it. You will not see the usual dots in place of typed characters. Make sure caps lock is off. Type carefully and then press return. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you make three failed attempts to enter the password, the test will run anyway, but it will produce less information. In most cases, the difference is not important. If you don't know the password, or if you prefer not to enter it, just press return three times at the password prompt. Again, the script will still run.
    If you're not logged in as an administrator, you won't be prompted for a password. The test will still run. It just won't do anything that requires administrator privileges.
    11. The test may take a few minutes to run, depending on how many files you have and the speed of the computer. A computer that's abnormally slow may take longer to run the test. While it's running, a series of lines will appear in the Terminal window like this:
    [Process started]
            Part 1 of 8 done at … sec
            Part 8 of 8 done at … sec
            The results are on the Clipboard.
            Please close this window.
    [Process completed]
    The intervals between parts won't be exactly equal, but they give a rough indication of progress. The total number of parts may be different from what's shown here.
    Wait for the final message "Process completed" to appear. If you don't see it within about ten minutes, the test probably won't complete in a reasonable time. In that case, press the key combination control-C or command-period to stop it. Then go to the next step.
    12. When the test is complete, or if you stopped it because it was taking too long, quit Terminal. The results will have been copied to the Clipboard automatically.

  • Photoshop keeps crashing after Yosemite download

    I installed OS Yosemite last night and now I can't use photoshop for more than 5 minutes without it crashing!
    I have only got 1 image with a few layers open at any one time so I know that I'm not overworking my macbook.  Randomly, my laptop will just close the file and then attempt to recover it, and will ask if I want to send a crash report.  This has happened about 10 times in the last half an hour!
    Just wondering if anyone else is having difficulties?  I am using Photoshop CS6 and have never had any issues with it until today. 

    Reinstall Lion, Mountain Lion, or Mavericks without erasing drive
    Boot to the Recovery HD:
    Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
    Repair
    When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list.  In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive.  If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported then click on the Repair Permissions button. When the process is completed, then quit DU and return to the main menu.
    Reinstall Lion, Mountain Lion, or Mavericks
    OS X Mavericks- Reinstall OS X
    OS X Mountain Lion- Reinstall OS X
    OS X Lion- Reinstall Mac OS X
         Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet
                     if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.

  • No Speakers after Yosemite install

    After working the FileVault issue for 2 days (still not fixed by computer is usable--but still a little sluggish), I now found I have no speakers. In system preferences, under sound, all the sounds, alert volume and output volumes are greyed out. When playing iTunes, no volume comes out of the speakers, even when the software, and hardware volumes are maxed out. Using a 17" MBP...
    Any suggestions?

    I reset PRAM and SMC and my speakers still do not work.  Any other suggestions?

  • Updating external iTunes after Yosemite update

    iTunes did not update the external HD where iTunes and all music is stored and accessed. The update placed the new iTunes on the interior hard drive and music is not available. What to do?

    You keep your iTunes application on a different drive from your iTunes library files (everything except the application)?  Not having the application on the same drive as the system and main Applications folder is highly unusual and I am not sure it is even possible on newer systems (which I do not have).
    You can download the iTunes installer using the tab at the top of this page.

  • Can't open App Store after Yosemite download.

    This is the first time I have had any problems with upgrading versions. Particularly frustrated with not being able to get into the App Store right now. Icon on dock won't work. Tried through launch pad and Apple website as well. Nothing opens it. Any one have an idea on how to get there? Is there another way I'm missing?

    Finally! I got everything working. Re-booted my Mac in Recovery mode, and re-installed Yosemite. Sat here through the entire process (which I didn't do before), and bam, everything now works. Shut down your computer and re-open it holding both the command and R keys down Until the recovery box pops up. Worked for me anyhow.

  • External speakers do not turn back on when computer restarted...

    iMac 24" C2D. External speakers are Harman Kardon Sounds SticksII-Z (the ones you plug into the headphone jack) on the back of the computer. They work great, when the computer sleeps, and is reawakened they work. (And yes, when the external speakers are plugged in - the sound preference pane shows "headphones.")
    THE ISSUE - if I turn the computer and the external speakers off over night - and restart the computer...the next morning, no sound form the external speakers.
    I check the sound preference pane - still shows "headphones" (meaning the external speakers are plugged in) but no sound. I unplug the external speakers - and the internal speakers iMac speakers take over.
    So, then I plug the external speakers in - and all is well.
    Seems like a small nit - but why doesn't the computer automatically play throught the external speakers after an off-on cycle?

    Hello Michael
    "Seems like a small nit - but why doesn't the computer automatically play throught the external speakers after an off-on cycle? "
    When you startup or restarts the startup chime will come from the internal speakers. Then the system should automaticly switch to external when it detects a jack pluged in. From what you discribe it seems to work properly when the computer is up and running, so it sound more like a startup issue.
    First reset the SMC the instructions are in this link:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=303446
    Then test to see if this solved the issue!
    If not then maybe you should Repair Disk Permissions, the instructions are in this link:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=25751
    Then test again!
    Let us know how it's going!

  • Need Audio Help - USB External Speakers

    This should be fun!
    Need Audio Help!  My USB external speakers are recognized in Garage Band Preferences, but NOT in System Preferences. (I use the audio interface, US-144 Tascam)
    Which means:
    I can only play my speakers using Garage band and not iTunes.
    They were working in both iTunes and GB many times before.
    I see that others have had problems losing their external speakers after updating their iMac.
    I've called Apple for assistance (no help)
    Changed the order of connections
    I've shut down again, again...
    Help please

    Open System Preferences/Sound and select the USB Speakers as your Output device
    If that doesn't do as you expect, or you need to tweak them, run Utilities/Audio MIDI Setup and select them there then adjust the Format and Volume etc.
