Loss of sound effect when changing volume.

Hi there,
I have just purchased a Macbook Pro and everything was going well until I noticed that when I changed the volume using the F11 and F12 keys, the sound effect would no longer be produced. I have been through Sounds in System Preferences and checked all the settings are correct, even the 'play feedback when volume is changed' option is checked. All I have been doing so far is using iTunes and using the internet. I also loaded djay but I don't think this would have anything to do with it. Please help.

iCloud only keeps photo stream photos for 30 days, even though up to 1000 photos will remain on your devices until deleted.  When you re-enabled photo stream you only received photo stream photos from the last 30 days as older photos are no longer in iCloud.
To change your iCloud ID, go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, then sign back in with the new ID.  This deletes the account and your iCloud data from your device, but not from iCloud.  Provided you are signing back into the same account, your iCloud data will reappear on your device when you sign back in.
However, to avoid losing photo stream photos, before deleting the account save them to your camera roll (if not already there).  To do this, open your my photo stream album, tap Edit, tap the photos, tap Share, then tap Save to Camera Roll.  Be sure to do this on your other devices first.
To get the missing photos back on your iPod, create a shared photo stream that includes them on one of your other devices and invite yourself as a subscriber (see http://help.apple.com/icloud/#mmc0cd7e99).

  • I have an audio problem when ever I use my Firefox web browser that makes a sharp audible sound simiular to a video game gun shot sound effect when ever I go into a new web page?

    I have an audio problem that when ever I use my Firefox web browser it makes a sharp audible sound similar to a video game gun shot sound effect when ever I go into a new web page? I change to a new site or page a page on a site, I get an audible gunshot ping trpe sound? It happens almost every time. Its very annoying and is driving me nuts???
    Any body out there had this happen also or know how to diagnose and fix this type of problem? I would hate to have to delete my whole Firefox program and have to start over again. If that is the case I will probably just scrap it and go on to try Google Chrome instead. I already have GC partially set up. I really have liked Firefox up to this point. I know add ons can cause problems at times but I haven't added anything new lately and this just started happening?

  • Turn off sound effects for iTunes volume changes?

    I've started getting audible squirt-noises each time I use the F9 or F10 or F11 keys to raise or lower iTunes volume. How I go back silent changes?
    I've checked iTunes help and Googled a few things and unchecked all the sound effects in Apple System Preferences but no luck. I want to keep using the keys, not the slider.
    Thank you
    Don

    Did you mean to ask this in the Tiger OS forum? Your computer information says you are running Leopard. I can request this post be moved to the correct forum.
    In Tiger you can toggle "play feedback when volume is changed" in the System Preferences > Sound > Sound Effects preference pane.

  • Sound is not working properly ? The volume button keeps saying sound effects when it's pressed .

    Sound is not working at all now , when you press the volume button it says sound effects but nothing is happening

    Hello Hartnett01,
    Thank you for the details you provided regarding your audio issue you are experiencing on your iPad.  I found a couple of resources that I think might help. 
    First, I recommend following steps in the following tutorial to address an issue like this (you can skip step 2 "Recharge iPad" because it's not related to this issue):

  • Feedback When Changing Volume Stopped Working

    I have "Play feedback when volume is changed" checked in System Preferences > Sound > Sound Effects, but this has stopped working when I use the volume keys on my Apple keyboard. I would try trashing the appropriate preferences, but I can't find the right preferences file. Any help/suggestions would be appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Emily

    I had to shut down my iMac because of a thunderstorm, and when I turned the computer back on, the feedback was working again.

  • Headphone sound only when changing level or balance

    Hi,
    I have a weird problem with my Logitech B530 USB headset.
    I have configured it as the main input and output device in system settings, but I only hear sounds when changing sound level or balance. So if I e.g. start some music in iTunes I hear nothing, if I then increase/decrease the volume I hear the song, but the sound quickly fades away and there is no sound again. The same thing happens if I change the device balance.
    Has anyone experienced anything similar and/or have any idea how to fix this?
    Thanks,
    Mads

    = Yes it came pre-installed,? it's an x-fi xtreme music, is there any other way to find the exact model? Im pretty sure my card is upside down so It would? be impossible to read the serial number which is on the bottom. It doesn't seem to be a hardware issue at all, it seems to be a software [email protected]

  • Funny noise when changing volume

    I've just noticed that when the volume is changed by pressing the volume keys at the top of the keyboard a small tapping noise comes from the speakers. I've checked the sound settings in the system preferences and I've turned off the play feedback feature when the volume is changed.
    It's really beginning to bug me. This has only occurred after installing the latest update.
    Has anyone else experienced the same problem?
    Anna

    So I took my 1.33Ghz iBook back to the Apple Store to have it replaced for this clicking/popping noise, volume balance problem that they are unable to fix or acknowledge as a bug. While I was waiting to be helped by the genius, I thought I would do a test with the iBooks and Powerbooks in the store.
    Here are my startling findings....
    ALL OF THE 12" IBOOKS AND POWERBOOKS IN THE STORE HAD THIS POPPING/CRACKLING SOUND.
    Seems to be a bigger problem than even I had thought. I guess we will have to wait for a 10.4.4 update that hopefully will fix this problem.

  • What is that sound effect when you wake the MBP from sleep?

    There is some sound effect every time I wake the MBP up from sleep. I am not sure what is making that sound. It sound like "pffft", I hope that makes sense.

    Hi I hve the same problem mi MacBook Pro doeas that, the sound that makes is the one I have for default, Funk (for example if my computer sleeping with the screen open and I press any key on the keybord it makes that sound) if you want you can try this, to chek if that is the sound that you heare, close all the windows and try to use expose.
    remember the sound that you are going to heare is the one that you have for default.
    Another thing is that I re-instal the OS and the computer stops from doing that but then start again when I eject my iPod from the finder window but I left it conected from the USB and then when the computer was sleeping I desconected it.
    I know that maybe nothing of this can help you but I want to let you know that you are not alone.
    If you found the fix for that thing please let me know.

  • Popping sound soundbar when changing channels

    I recently purchased a soundbar to go with my HDTV set. Experience popping when changing channels or when changing settings in the DVR. Manufacturer of the soundbar says that I must match the STB (Motorola 7232) audio settings with the TV's which is Force or LPCM and turn off Dolby Digital. However, I cannot find these settings.
    Take the soundbar out of the mix and the TV does not experience any popping. This tells me that this cannot be the STB but the manufacturer says it is. Any help with audio on FiOS TV would be greatly appreciated.
    Solved!

    Let us know if you find the menu. The tricky thing is that you have to power it off from the front display and then do ok menu using the remote. It took ne a couple times to get there with the new box. Best of luck.

  • Effect on symbolic link when changing volume name

    I just wanted to verify this information before I proceed with changing the name of my hard drive. I have 3 partitions of my MBP's internal drive. There is the system partition "Mac HD", a boot camp partition and a data only partition called "Storage". I have quite a few symbolic links on "Mac HD" which point to "Storage", where the data is stored. If I change the name of "Mac HD" and/or "Storage", will the symbolic links update to the new name of the volume automatically? Or, will the change of volume name break the symbolic links so I have to create them all over again? Everything I have read leads me to believe they will update, but I don't want to mess anything up and find out the hard way. A little confirmation would make me feel much better before I make the change.
    Thanks,

    I don't want to get off on a tangent about pros and cons of cloning, I just want to plant a seed of worry to review it at a later date. It is one thing to restore a disk image for a kiosk machine, it is something else entirely to restore an image of some machine that has had people using it. Misconfiguration, corrupt filesystems, and failed hard drives are some of the most frequent causes of failures. Having a clone of a system that has just failed for one of those reasons doesn't give me a warm fuzzy. It would be a much better idea to have a procedure (or script) to build a new server from scratch and load it from a backup (not a bitwise clone) of known, good data.
    Our computer use is typical. There are only a few employees who use the computers regularly, and a few people others who use it less often. the daily use is mostly for back end management like bookkeeping and processing orders. The rest of the operations are design based, like graphics and documents. We don't have a business like a kiosk where people are all over the computers all day. With deep freeze on the system though, there is no worry about anyone doing anything to the system that would corrupt it. Also, the actual drives with the OS rarely get changed or backed up, because they remain the same for the most part. All of the files that are created like documents, designs, orders and such, are saved to storage. The storage is what I back up frequently, because that's where everything is stored. I may have a false sense of security, but I always thought I was more protected than most, because all of my files are stored on a drive without any operating system. I figured there is very little that can go wrong which could corrupt my data since the drive is data only. I always have 2 backups up both the OS drive and the data storage drive. One is like a daily backup, the other is more like once a week or so update which is kept in the safe. I always verify that the backup by opening a few files on it, but I never really know for sure that everything is safe because I can't open everything! I have no clue how to start a server based system backup like you are talking about, but it sounds like a much safer backup method. A little overkill for use considering we don't do that much on the computers? Maybe, but only because I would have to hire someone to come set it up for me. Maybe it's not so hard as it sounds, but I know I don't have the time to learn how to do something like that myself. I didn't realize the backup techniques I am using are so inferior. I feel like my data is pretty safe, but I guess I can look into other options.
    I don't consider it "fun", I consider it a "requirement".
    I am a bit of a prepper, okay a lot of a prepper. I am prepared for just about anything that can come my way. I do not consider testing my preps fun either. I was just saying, I anticipate that there will be some sort of loss when I restore, based on what you're telling me.
    Disasters do have a remarkable ability to strike when you are least prepared. There is a logical reason for that. The more prepared you are, the less disastrous the event.
    Agreed, 100%. That's why we're talking about it. I was starting to think that I was over thinking it! Clearly I'm not the only one!
    Interesting. Unfortunately, the symbolic link method is pretty invasive because it requires those links to be up and functioning before the clone. A better solution would be to identify all those files, and have a launchd script that replaces the original files with either modified versions or links at system boot time.
    With deep freeze, the symlinks are re-created every time I boot, even if they are broken before shutdown. So, it's pretty safe as long as they work before I freeze the system. I also have the two backups in case something goes wrong. I'm confident the links work. And the worst thing that can go wrong if they break is that I have to re-create the broken ones. either way, the data that is linked is still on my storage drive and both of my backups. The only thing I wouldn't be able to recover would be the symbolic link itself.
    You need to think of this in terms of the file system. The "name" of a volume doesn't really mean anything. What matters is the mount point. The mount point, however, depends on a particular hardware configuration. You could control it better with some clever mounting scripts, but it sure seems like there is a much easier way to accomplish your ultimate goal.
    I guess you're saying I could get by without deep freeze, and that it complicated things. Yes, it does. I am always trying to find workarounds because of it. However, I like the fact that my computer is the same every time I turn it on no matter what someone has done to it.
    You have extensive control over your mount points.
    I will have to look into this, because if I can get the firewire clone to run with the symlinks in place, I could have a fully working system with nothing more than a restart of the computer.
    That, I don't know. Restoring a disk image that has embedded symbolic links to another drive is a fragile solution. You know what files you need to symlink, write a script that will set up the links at boot time - or at any time. Exactly what files are these? I strongly think there is an even easier solution lurking around. Why are you so concerned about retaining user data through restarts? Why are you even restarting?
    There's actually not as many as I thought. I have symlinked data and prefs from mail, ical, address book, blackberry desktop. Then, some document folders. I could cut a lot of these down by linking my entire documents folder and building my hierarchy within that, but I've built my own which is neatly organized into the 4 departments of our business. It's really not that much. The only thing is that my mail, ical and address book won't work on the clone, because they are dependent on the simlinks. Everything else is just files that I would access directly from the storage drive anyway, so no loss there!
    Wow! I made it through here! I'll review over the ideas you recommended and see if I can actually implement any of them myself. My guess is, I don't have the skills to pull them off. I'll look into it though. thanks for your time, and I will let you know what happens.

  • No sound from Sub, Rear L/R, Centre, when changing volume (X-Fi xtremegamer, 5.1 T61

    Hey, since this week I got a really strange problem, I first noticed it when in games, i don't hear people coming from the back anymore, and music doesn't sound as crisp anymore. At first the rear right was switched around with the sub and some other strange stuff going on, and now it affects 4 speakers: the central speaker, the 2 rear speakers, and the subwoofer. When i click on standard configuration(dunno how it is exactly in english, cus i have the?dutch version, but it changes everything into default), they work again. I started customizing everything again, and tested if they were working, but same problem: only front left/right were working. After some testing I found out that it occurs as soon as i change the volume with the main volume knob. By default it is something like 74%, and after changing it to something else, the problem occurs, even if turned back to 74.
    Does someone know how to fix it's

    I have the EXACT SAME proublem. At first I thought my card went bad because I lost 3 channels but after hitting the defult button all the speakers started working again. For me it also seems that if I change the master volume on the soundblaster controll pannel to anything other then defult I then lose the same 3 channels. However if I use window's volume controll (single click on the speaker in the task tray), or the volume adjustment on my keyboard I have no proublems.

  • Sound disappears when changing speaker config

    Hello all, I currently have a bit of an annoying issue when using my x-fi titanium card in vista 64 bit.
    When I goto change my speaker config from headphones to 5.1 or vice versa, the sound from the running apps disappears
    and I have to restart the applications for sound to come back. For example I am playing a song in winamp, i change speaker config
    from 5.1 to headphones, sound gone, close winamp and reopen sound is back. Same thing goes for my games.
    Any possible solutions to this thanks.

    The only thing I don't like about the iPhone headset solution is that the earplugs are uncomfortable, and keep falling out. I basically don't like things stuck in my ear. So I am thinking of buying an actual over-the-ears headset to plug in to the headset port.
    A couple of questions:
    - Is there any reason at all to go USB headset instead? It seems like a waste of a USB port since there is a headset jack.
    - Is there any way of switching the output sound back to the speakers while the headset is plugged in? Or do I have to physically unplug it each time it is not in use for a Skype call (which is the only time I would use it)?
    Thanks,
    doug

  • Rumbling from output when changing volume.

    I just recieved my iPod Classic from the mail yesterday.  I bought a refurbished one to save some money but when I recieved it and uploaded all music/videos and applied the 2 yr warrenity on it that I found out it was rumbling the noice coming out of the head phones.  But when it was too quite or maxed out it was fine.  After a day of playing around with the settings I got it working normally but however it sometimes goes back to rumbling and will have to play with volume and reset the iPod before it goes back to normal.  Is there anything I could do or is it something that I need to go to an apple store for?  Also, if I do go to an Apple Store, will it be a quick fix or something that will take more than a day?
