Lost audio control after update

Hi - My audio progress bar shows full audio image on the desktop at all times and audio can't be muted or turned down. It makes this rhythmic metronome sound, flap, flap, flap. I have my speakers hooked up so I use them to mute the sound. Mute on G5 doesn't work. Removing my speakers is no help
I have tried re-installing the system (archive and install)
Permission repair (get harmless SUID warning "usr/libexec/load_hdi" has been modified and will not be repaired)
Re setting the PRAM (twice)
This happened before todays update (1/15/08)
Updates didn't help The SUID warning is post update
I have disconnected the keyboard with no change, even restarted with no keyboard attached, still the same.
This is a new one on me. Any ideas? or should I say help! I can't listen to music

ok fixed the problem. it was my external usb headphones that were wedged against the wall taking control of my sound. nothing to do with mac hardware or software. usb . . . i am getting bluetooth headphones tomorrow!

Lost sound control after update to 8.1.3

i wonder if anybody else is having this issue. I updated my iPad 2 A1395 to iOS 8.1.3 yesterday, and have since lost audio for several apps, including when watching video in Cheezburger, Facebook, Twitter and occasionally YouTube. I can still use the volume switches for the most part (except Cheezburger) but nothing happens. With Cheezburger, the volume graphic does not even appear on the screen.
The Music app works mostly fine as a comparative benchmark. I have reset my iPad but I am still having this issue. Please help, this darn thing is virtuall useless now and I can't afford another one.

I also experienced complete loss of sound/volume from my iPad's speakers following upgrade to iOS 8.1.3 yesterday. This happened in three apps - Music, Bloomberg app's inbuilt text-to-voice reader and iPad's inbuilt text-to-voice reader.
The issue resolved after I re-booted the iPad. I now have sound being emitted (and volume control) from the iPad speakers :).

Hello SHenoudabak,
It sounds like you are trying to find the Personal Hotspot option in your Settings. You were close. The option is directly under Settings, and not in the Cellular section of Settings:
Go to Settings > Personal Hotspot
Personal Hotspot - iPhone
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
All the very best,

Has anyone lost their Facebook after updating to a newer version on their iPhone?

Has anyone lost their Facebook after updating to a newer version on their iPhone? After updating I was emailed and told to go back to the old version and now my Facebook account is gone. Anyone know what's going on?

No problems here but you can re download the FB app from the App Store right on your iPhone.

Lost audio control due to usb speakers

after connecting a CharWise C5 Laptop Cooling Pad with Speakers (Mukii INC.) I lost control over audio in my macbook pro. and some programs have no sound. the audio Icon is grayed and when I press the audio control buttons on my keyboard I get gray icon with the disabled sign on it.
I tried going to the preferences and select the internal speakers, it doesn't help.
also when I connect my headphoes and press the volume control I get the same disabled icon.
but I can hear sound in several programs like Adobe applications and vlc player. I get no sound at all in quicktime, iTunes doesn't play music and I can't hear sound from internet browsing.
the Macbook Pro is 3 months old. but I have no time to take it to the store as I need it to work.
Last time I updated my software through the App Store I got my audio control back after restart, next time I restarted I lost it again...
I'm using OS X Mountain Lion - updated.
How do I fix this?
how do I remove the drivers of the usb speakers?
please help

If you're really really stuck you could connect it to the PC via the headphone socket to the line-in socket on the PC, then record the output.

Lost audio files after saving.

I lost my audio files after saving in Logic X and now my project file has the extension .logicx on it and my audio files are nowhere to be seen. I made some changes to the project, moved the file to another folder, then they asked if I wanted to replace the other file with the new and I said yes not thinking that it would matter. Is there any way that my audio files are still out there somewhere? And no I don't have time machine hooked up.
Thanks.

if you replaced that file.. then you have lost it's contents as they have all been replaced with the one you copied over... and as you have no backups you cannot, as they say.. un-scramble the egg...
Finally start making backups as soon as possible...
As the old saying goes...

I lost all apps after updating to iOS7.1 How do I get them back?

After updating my iphone4s with iOS7.1 I lost all my apps. How do I get them back?

All your apps should be in your itunes media library, sync your phone to itunes.
Or directly from your phone - app store - update - purchase - all or not on this phone - hit the cloud next to the app you want to download.

Can't switch audio tracks after updating to Yosemite

Previously, I was able to choose different audio tracks in the QuickTime Player (for instance, director commentary or stereo vs. surround sound) in Mavericks, but now after updating to Yosemite, whenever I try to change the language/track by using the on-screen shortcut or by going to View -> Languages, it shows "English" listed twice with check marks next to each.
There is no way to select one of the other because it seems both are checked, though, obviously, it only uses the first in the list.
I have used QuickTime Player to switch audio tracks on all my files before updating to Yosemite, now it doesn't work for any. Anyone have any ideas on how to fix this? Seems like a bug. Are they aware of the issue?
MacBook Pro (15-inch, Mid-2012); Mac OS X Yosemite 10.10; QuickTime Player 10.4

Firefox reverts to older version on own. Now cannot re-install lost plugs even after updated rev.

Over time (months usually) firefox seems to revert to an earlier version that I was using, customization would be lost. This last instance, I lost plug ins and cannot get them to re-install though the process works as it always used to. I even tried re-installation after updating to the latest rev of firefox. I like Adblock and Noscript, but they will not re-install.

Ipad 2 audio problem after updating to 8.1.2

Immediately after updating my ipad2 to version 8.1.2, the audio is distorted. Even the key clicks are distorted. I've reset the ipad, I've restored the ipad. No luck. Anyone else having this problem? Any suggestions ?
Thanks

Actually, I found out what to do: The mono button under accessibility needs to be toggled on and then off again.
I asked Siri who provided some good links from when the problem happened with version 7.

How do I get lost data back, after update sync all pictures, notes and mail lost

How do you get pictures, notes contacts and mail back, lost after update on IPhone5

Restore the backup that you made when you last synced your phone to iTunes on your computer. Alternatively, if you enabled iCloud backup on the phone, you can restore from the latest iCloud backup by going to Settings/General/Reset - Erase all content and settings.

Changed voice control after update.

After updating my iPhone 4 to iOS 6, the voice control sounds different. The volume is low and the voice is more... robotic! Is it fixable?

I am having the same problem, looks like apple was to lazy to record all the new speech.
