Lost sound with Snow Leopard upgrade?

Just upgraded from Leopard and have no sound, (except the opening chime). Did a search on the discussions and couldn't seems to find anything similar. Have QT 7.6.6 Pro but downloaded the SL version anyway just in case. Cables/sound system check out fine. I searched the KB's but no joy there. Maybe I'm missing something, (obviously). Don't even get sound through QTX. Help please.
Cheers
Rich

Stupid me. Went into Prefs/Sound and changed to headphones. Yikes!

  • Loud rattling noise in drive with snow leopard upgrade disc

    I attempted to upgrade my mac mini intel core duo (2.0 gHz with 3 GB) with the new snow leopard upgrade disc; it makes a horrendous nopise in the drive not unlike a leafblower, and an error message finally appears with CANNOT READ DISC. Every other media disc works fine in the drive; whether CD ROM or DVD. It works fine in my MacBook (Black from 2007). Any ideas on how to do this install? Apple checked the disc and they say it's fine.
    Thanx

  • Lost custom pronunciations in VoiceOver with Snow Leopard upgrade

    I had been using VoiceOver under Leopard to read documents aloud. I had set up a large dictionary of custom pronunciations. However, when I upgraded to Snow Leopard (yesterday), those custom pronunciations are no longer in the VoiceOver Utility list of pronunciations. I can't find where they might have been stored. Is there any way I can retrieve those custom pronunciations either from the current system or from a Time Machine backup?

    OK, I found my custom pronunciations were saved in ~/Library/Preferences in a file called com.apple.VoiceOver.pronunciations.plist. However, in Snow Leopard, there is a new version of VoiceOver (3.0.1). It does not seem to inherit preferences from the previous version. And in fact, it keeps its pronunciations in ~/Library/Preferences/com.Apple.VoiceOver3, in a file called custom.pronunciation.plist. I'm not an expert at parsing plists, but looking at the text in the plists, it seems the new plist is in a slightly different format from the old one—they don't seem compatible with each other; they don't even maintain the same name. Plus, while VoiceOver3 has a menu item to Import Preferences, it doesn't seem capable of importing any plist file—all files are grayed out.
    So while I now have found my custom pronunciations in a plist, I can't figure out a way to import them into the current version of the software, other than input them by hand one at a time. Does anyone know a better way?

  • Problem with Snow Leopard upgrade

    Just upgraded to Snow Leopard 10.6.3 and can't open anything.  Application freezes up and I get the whirly color wheel

    Do you know any solution for an iMac9,1 OS X intel core 2 duo, 2.66Ghz? After updates installed for my Snow Leopard which I bought with disc a lot of problems started with it. Sorry I don't know were to post these. This is the nearest I think I got to. I cant back up pictures I downloaded from my camera in my Mac, Every-time i shut it down when i open it, it goes back to default settings like for example my pen and mute sound at start up. Hope someone can help me find solution I am a mother of two and don't have much time to reach and search to solve things. Hope one can help me out. Thanks in advance.

  • Icon issues with Snow Leopard upgrade

    Overall, my recent Snow Leopard (10.6.8) upgrade on my MacPro went well. I have one strange quirk, hopefully someone else has experienced and can help with. It has to do with the icon for an Illustrator .EPS file showing up incorrectly.
    Specifically: In folders with Illustrator EPS files that were created BEFORE the upgrade, the icon shows up incorrectly. (a default looking icon.)  To make it even more weird, if I go to "View Options", and uncheck "show icon preview", the icon show up correctly.
    In folders with Illustrator EPS files created AFTER the upgrade, the icons show up correctly. However, in View Options, the "show icon preview" box is unchecked! 
    So, I'm getting the opposite result from the View Options menu.
    Anybody know what's going on here?

    The old EPS files did not have an icon preview with them, so they use the default icon. The newer files have an icon preview that is being shown when "show icon preview" is enabled.
    If you don't need the icon previews, turn them off in the view options, and check use as defaults. Your computer will run faster, especially on folders with lots of files.
    You can also do a CMD I on any .eps file, and change the applicaiton these "open with" when double clicking, that would also change your default icon.

  • Photos and Music on external HD do not synch with Snow Leopard upgrade.

    I upgraded to Snow Leopard several months ago.  I keep my music and photos on an external HD (WD My Passport).  Since the upgrade most of my music does not synch and Faces.  Can someone help me resolve this?  My family has 4 iPods that I can't fully synch and I can't organize any of my nearly 9000 photos into Faces categories (one of the main reasons I bought Aperture).
    The error message I get on a large amount of my songs on iTunes when I try to play them from my library is "The Song XXX cannot be used because the original file could not be found.  Would you like to locate it?"  It will occur to entire albums or only on a few songs within an album".  Several of my Apps do not synch as well.
    When I try to assign Faces in Aperture, normally after you enter the same name on a handful of photos it will start to 'recognize' the face and ask if the photo is "xxx".  No matter how many times I enter a name, it fails to recognize the face within the album or in other albums.  Entering thousands of names by hand, rather than clicking "Confirm" is rather cumbersome.  
    Any help I can get would be greatly appreciated.  I have been to the Genius bar several times and after more than 5 hours still have no resolution.
    Thank you very much.

    As a sidenote; be aware that you will need to update or even upgrade some of your third-party software, Adobe especially, and you will need to ensure you install Rosetta (additional installations) if you're still using Appleworks or other PPC applications. SL doesn't support Classic.
    Peripherals like scanners and printers will almost certainly need updated drivers, if they're available. Many manufacturers won't support kit that's more than 3 years old.

    Welcome to Apple's discussion groups.
    Try Epson's driver: epson13615.dmg. I'd post the URL, but it's amazingly long. You can find it on Epson's Web site (http://www.epson.com). Start at this URL

  • I have just upgraded to Mavericks and have been using Time Machine on an external disk with Snow Leopard.  Can I continue to backup with Time Machine on the same external disk or do I need a new disk since the operating system has changed?

    I have just upgraded to Mavericks and have been using Time Machine on an external disk with Snow Leopard.  Can I continue to backup with Time Machine on the same external disk or do I need a new disk since the operating system has changed?

    Hi there,
    I found that Time Machine in Mavericks will sort it all out for you. You shouldn't need to buy another backup drive, unless you have insufficient space left and can't afford to delete whats on there. It should just work fine.

    Try repairing permissions. My favorite way is with a utility called AppleJack. Info and download here. It's free. It only works when you boot in Single User Mode. When restarting or booting, hold down the Command key and S keys.
    You will get a very different startup screen that looks like the Terminal app has hijacked the screen. Just let the lines of text scroll by. When that happens you will get a text entry prompt. Type in "AppleJack" without the quotation marks.
    A DOS looking menu will appear. Choose 1 or d to run Disk Repair. If you get a message that Disk Repair found and corrected errors, run it again. Repeat until you get the "your disk appears to be ok" message. This rarely happens with my experience, though. This does the same thing as as booting from an external drive and running Disk Utility's repair. Only, no external drive is required!
    Next, choose 2 or p to repair disk permissions. This will take a little while. AppleJack warns that it will take up to an half hour to run repair permissions. It'n never taken more than about ten minutes for my MacBook Pro.
    As permissions are repaired, you will see each repair scroll on the screen. When done, the menu returns, choose q to quit. Then at the prompt, enter "exit" without the quotes. Your MacBook Pro should restart into Mac OS normally after this.
    Hope this helps.

  • Snow Leopard - Bento 2.0v5 - Lost record data on Snow Leopard Upgrade

    Any thoughts on this one: After an update to Snow Leopard 10.6 and 10.6.1, the data entered in Bento fields associated with contact names in Address Book are no longer available (only 10 of 300 or more records are still available) In addition, the categories associated with names in Address Book have no records in the associated categories in Bento. Further, this problem exists for all of my backup copies of Bento. (i.e. it appears the only way to go recover this might be to go back to a full computer backup recovery from prior to 10.6. I hypothesis that the links between individual records in Bento and Address Book have somehow become corrupted or broken. Therefore the data may well exist in Bento but it is not retrievable. This could be because Bento might believes incorrectly that the original AddressBook record was deleted. Just to confuse things a bit, another possible source of the problem may be because AddressBook is synchronized with other computers and Google. However, post my upgrades to 10.6, all these other accounts were download from the main computer on which Bento resides. A minor Address Book - Mail bug is possibly related. That is that when I "add to Address Book" by ctl-clicking an email address in Mail, this email address apparently added but it is often not found in Address Book. At times it comes shows up later but often it just disappears entirely.

    I have gotten a little closer to the problem. It appears that the update to SnowLeopard is not the problem. Rather syncing might be the culprit. I sync AddressBook with MobileMe and Google. The latter was as addition immediately after the Snow Leopard upgrade. I did clean out the GMail address book prior to syncing. Recently, I noticed some duplicate records in AddressBook. Some at least had two middle initials with periods. It appears there is a different format for this cell in the two systems. In one record they showed with no space and in the other with a space between the first period and the second letter.
    I was able to recover my AddressBook data. All the records had an update date from my first syncing after adding GMail. The old records had a mix of dates. I just went back to the date with mixed dates. After recovering the records and turning off syncing, Bento is working just fine and all old data is displayed.
