MacBook Pro + Logic Express 7.1.1 = No Sound?

I recently purchased a MacBook Pro, and transferred logic express 7.1.1 onto it from my PowerBook. Now it doesn't make sound, and, being more or less illiterate with the software, I have no idea how to fix it.
I've checked online, and there are no apparent updates available to me. One troubleshooting forum suggested that I get Logic Express 7.2.3, but as far as I can tell right now, that's not a possibility unless I want to spend significantly more money than this is worth.
So right now I have a 2-year old, $300 dollar program that I cannot use. Any suggestions?
Thanks you for your time.

I think that you should read some Logc manuals or make a search here for "no sound"......
But to obtain the best from your mac, as noeqplease states, upgrade to 8.
cheers

How to set output 1 and 2 and master in pro logic express when mixing

Pro Logic Express

Just brought a new i7 imac. Brought Pro Logic Express 7 online and now my computer will not allow the programme to open up?
Not too sure what to do.

Hi,
That's a bit of a disappointment...
From memory I think that Logic Express 7 was not compatible with Intel Macs...
Perhaps you can return it and get Logic Express 9...

What you can do is to extract the hard drive from your old computer, put it in an enclosure and connect it to your newer computer, so you can restore your data.
It's not too difficult to do it yourself, but if you think you will do something wrong, take it to a store where you can get your data restored

Is it normal that 2 years old macbook pro logic board died

is it normal that 2 years old macbook pro logic board died.i Went to apple repair plase and they said that logic board is ded.is it really OK that in 2 years it dies.

Hi,
No it is not normal nor it is a gamble. It will be a shame if anyone within Apple thinks that you were gambling on the quality of their products by not buying an extended warranty.
When someone buys a machine like a MacBook Pro from Apple you are not gambling with quality. But investing by forking out a higher amount of money than people do find less expensive solutions. This is, of course, a personal choose.
When a computer dies within two years anyone can see that the machine was not build for such a period and therefore it is not more than reasonable to have it repaired or replaced on the costs of the manufacturer.
In growing amount of (European) countries customers are protected against the approach of limited warranty. Apart from the one year warranty, people are entitled to have a device (in your case a computer) on which they can rely on for many years, unless stated differently (except for wear and tear for which a manufacturer is not responsible for).
Buying an extended warranty (as a warranty against a failure of the product) is no more than a commercial exploitation against which consumers should be protected. Which only can be achieved through proper legislation in the country you live in.

How do I connect my mid-2009 Macbook pro to my HDMI television and get sound?

How do I connect my mid-2009 Macbook pro to my HDMI television and get sound?

Use a mini-Displayport-to-HDMI adapter and a standard HDMI cable to connect the computer to the proper HDMI port on your computer — the one that is paired with the separate RCA audio inputs (see the TV's manual for this information). And connect the headphone port on your MBP to those inputs with a cable that has a 1/8' stereo headphone plug on one end and two RCA plugs on the other. You'll also need to select the proper HDMI input in the TV's menu system, and you may have to select the headphone port as the audio output in the Sound pane of System Prefs on the Mac (or it may be selected automatically).

TS1574 My apple macbook pro retina 15'' ME664 has problems with sound.Either there will be no sound at all or at startup there il be very scary and broken sound and afterwards still there would be no sound.Secondly , it does not start in one shot.

My apple macbook pro retina 15'' ME664 has problems with sound.Either there will be no sound at all or at startup there il be very scary and broken sound and afterwards still there would be no sound.Secondly , it does not start in one shot.atleast 2 to 3 times pressing power button for longer time starts it up and afterwards still there will be no sound. Please help

This morning i was not able to hear sound on my recently purchased macbookpro retina 15 inch model.My attempts to resolve this issue by going to system preferences and removing the mute box that was ticked as active. i had downloaded much earlier a mac version of logmein app and noticed that in the sound box noted above that there was a bar indicating that the default was now to logmein. i had never used this app. Why it started today, i have no idea. I moved the logmein application to trash and deleted the app , however it did not remove the default option which still blocked the sound.
Going to a macforum gave the tha anser that to remove the logmein app, it first had to be reinstalled a nd them use the uninstaller option ftrom the dropdown menu. for now that has resolved the failure to allow sound oputput.

Mid 2010 MacBook Pro - Logic Board Failure - Advice Needed

Hello all,
I could really use some advice.
I have a MacBook Pro that I bought through the Apple Online Store roughly around September of 2010. A couple of weeks after buying it I had to take it to the Apple Store in London's White City due to a keyboard backlight issue. About a week later I collected the MBP and the following day had to take it back as the technician that worked on it had not tightened the display brackets up leaving it a bit floppy.
Now I have serious issues with it. Recently the MacBook has been suffering from freezing up, booting issues and the display randomly shutting off (going black, no pixelating or anything) to the point the machine has become unusable. 2 days ago I took the MBP along to an appointment at the Genius Bar at London's Regent Street Apple Store, I also took along a copy of an Apple knowledge base article regarding this very issue. The knowledge base suggests that on any OS below Mountain Lion a software update is required, for ML or Mavericks an appointment with a service agent is required. During the appointment the Mac Genius suggested it may be a software issue, they would wipe the system and re-install Mavericks then test the machine, I told him I had done this a few days earlier but I guess they have to follow process. He then went on to suggest the display may be faulty, I told him I had no reason to suspect that was the case and moved the screen forwards and backwards at varying speeds without a glimmer of a flicker. At this point after reading about this issue on various forums prior to the appointment I felt that the guy was trying to imply anything maybe at fault but deliberately steering clear of suggesting the logic board, this is just my gut feeling however and i'm perfectly capable of being wrong but I do not feel I am! Anyhow I then proceeded to demonstrate the issue whilst the machine was on, warmed up and right in front of him. I gently and slightly lifted the front left corner of the machine a little way off of the counter, just enough to obviously flex the logic board by a minuscule amount and immediately the display went into a frenzy of going off and on.
So I left the MBP with them for the guys to do their thing. Today I received the following email:
"We have attempted to repair your machine by erasing all the data off your machine and reinstalling the latest operating system, Mavericks. This has not resolved the issue of the screen going black when in use. The issue has occurred again for a very short and brief few times once the machine had fully turned on and after testing the issue did not appear again.
I'm sure the issue will more likely occur again, to repair the machine we would need to replace a part known as the main logic board. This repair is very expensive and will come roughly to £418.80."
£418.80 GBP, that's pretty much 25% of the original purchase price of the machine new, a Premium 'Pro' labelled machine just 3 years old at that. I cannot possibly afford to pay for the repair. I really despair.
This MBP has done no work hard enough for it to get stressed. It is used for some web surfing, online shopping, email, online flash based games but mostly for my kids homework. It has spent it's entire life on a table in our living room with the exception of it's Genius Bar trips.
I love Apple products, it's why as a family we own so many off them. Too many to list on a public forum as I don't want would be burglars inviting themselves around sometime. This issue has tainted my perception of both Apple and it's products. Not so much because of the fault, machines become faulty. No because it's a premium machine that cost me £2100 new and is little more than a paperweight at present just 3 years down the line. Some part of me if i'm honest was wishing but more than that expecting a company like Apple to say along the lines of "This has happened, it shouldn't have and will be repaired at no charge". There are many people suffering this kind of problem with this model and the existence of the knowledge base article must mean Apple knows it too. Just 3 years, £300 PCs last longer than that i'm sure. It does seem to be a very short lifespan for such a high end machine.
My apologies for droning on but I can neither afford the repair or do without the computer, my son is in his final GCSE year at school and my daughter in her pre GCSE year so a computer is critical for school homework research etc. I just do not know how to move forward, I haven't even picked the machine up yet!
This isn't a stomping Apple, one man crusade. I just need my MacBook fixed.
If anyone has had this problem and had it satisfactory resolved, knows who to speak to that may help resolve the issue please let me know.
Any other advice will be more than welcome.

Ive repaired 1000s of laptops over the years (translate: diagnose and replace parts).
Its not that old, Ive owned 100s of laptops (most were free) ....some I still have are nearly 13 years old and still perfect, ....some extremely expensive ones died in under a year.
other than becoming obsolete at some point, there isnt really any "will spoil on" data like Milk for solid state computer parts, ....alas.
You can have a $5000 laptop die in 4 months, and a junker one keep kicking after 10 years.... Ive seen that firsthand countless times.
Common logic dictates that "very expensive = long life" in computers,..... but all the repair people will tell you just the opposite.
I know you have a gripe, I get that all too well honestly .

13 Inch Macbook Pro Logic Board Failure

I've my 13 inch macbook pro (mid 2010) working fine till last week and all of a sudden it gone off while i'am working with it.
When i tried it it switch it on, it is not coming up back. No response at all, when i press the power button even the brething light is not coming up.
No issue with the battery as it is fully charged and even the MagSafe is connected.
I gave it to Apple authorised service center for repair, they initially asked 1000+ buck (INR) for checking it and after checking it i got a response that it is a logic board issue no power is being send to Logic board and it needs an expensive replacement of Rs 33,600.
Not sure why this logic board can't be repaired rather than an expensive replacement..??? Are they doing service or only replacements?
Bought it for 80k and spending another 35k in 3 years is the most annoying thing - a brand new windows laptop costs 35k
Thanks,
Subbu

Apple or an AASP do not "service" logic boards...everything is soldered in place...they replace them.

My macbook pro logic board died. I had all my music on an external drive. How do I get my iTunes library, playlists etc. from my dead computer onto my new one?

My logic board died on my old macbook pro. I have a new one, but I want to get my iTunes library off my old hard drive and put it on my new one. I had set up my old MBP to store all my iTunes music on an external drive, so I have the music. The iTunes program was on the old MBP hard drive.How do I essentially recreate my previous iTunes library, playlists, etc on my new laptop?

You will need the iTunes Library.itl file which generally lives in ~/Music/iTunes/. You can recover this from the backups you were making before the HDD died. Otherwise, you cannot recreate the library.

Macbook Pro Logic board failure

Hi,
On 07 July 2013 I bought a new Macbook Pro from a local iStore. about 1 year later, the monitor failed with a black screen and I submitted the unit for repairs, as it was still under warrantee. The Apple Core Group noted that they had replaced the screen and the main logic board as this was the issue. On receiving the unit back, I noticed that the built-in microphone does not function. This was not a problem for me at the time as I never used the microphone and left it. Fast forward another year and a half, I now have a bigger need for the microphone to function for conference calls etc. About two and a half weeks ago I submitted the unit in for repairs at the same iStore, which was sent away again to the Core Group who deals with repairs on Apple products.
With communications in the past two weeks, they have claimed that the unit does not want to boot up anymore while running diagnostics and eventually told me that the main logic board has failed, and thus the reason it is not working anymore. Today the Core Group sent me a quote of R9200 (+- $750) since my unit is out of warrantee.
This doesnt sound like a valid reason and what am I supposed to do in this case? Am I responsible for dishing out $750 since I left the Macbook in fully working order when I handed it in to Apple Support? Why would the main logic board fail again after it was replaced about a year and a half ago.
Any advice is much appreciated.

There are no widespread hardware failures endemic to that model. Lacking any indication to the contrary, the repair facility itself begins to look suspicious. Of course I'm biased since all I have is the information you provided.
... the boot failed while running diagnostics
Obviously it means nothing in the end, but it is commonly accepted that when a repair facility accepts an item for repair, the item remains in their care from that moment until you accept it from them, after which it is returned to your care. The fact it failed while in their care does not appear to be in dispute. You have no way of determining how that occurred, nor should it be your responsibility to determine it. They could have dunked it in water for all you know. How is that your responsibility?
How do you prove that in any case?
Recording the logic board's serial number and comparing it to the one returned to you is one way to ensure it hasn't been swapped with a defective one, but even that can be circumvented if the repair facility is motivated enough to modify it. Anyway, my sympathies are all I can offer.

Need Help for New Purchase - Macbook Pro 8gb & express slot

Hello All,
I needed some advise or rather clarification on a new purchase of a Macbook Pro.
I became a bit disheartened ever since the new Macbook Pros replaced the express slot with the SD card reader.
I want a 15" Macbook Pro , with 8gb of expandable ram (Or at least have the option) , 512 video - graphics memory , & the express slot.
I DO NOT WANT the 17' because it becomes too bulky.
Here is what i was looking at: (15" macbook pro - 2.93ghz core 2 duo, 512 video, express slot, 4gb ram, etc) -$1,949 - Basically the model just prior to the new line with the express slot instead of the card reader.
http://store.apple.com/us/product/G0GR3LL/A?mco=MjE0NDk5Mw
In this description , it states that the ram is limited to 4gb , but i find that hard to believe, seeing as how the previous model (early 2009) allowed for upto 8gb of ram i believe.
Secondly, the link below (toward the bottom) outlines that the Macbook Pro, depending on the processor (2.66 or above) , do allow for 8gb or ram.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MacBook_Pro
I have gotten mixed information, and needed to clarify before i make this large investment.
Any advise that can be offered would be a big help.
Thank you.

I saw your post and thought I could definitely help ya out on some of your questions.
First of all, yes - All the latest MBP's support up to 8GB RAM. (I'd recommend buying the RAM at "Other World Computing" as opposed to upgrading through Apple though. It's about 60% cheaper and is quite easy to install)
I find it very frustrating that the 13" & 15" MBP's no longer have a way to expand functionality via an Express-Card slot. There's really no work around on this other than going with the 17". However, I know how bulky that, and I love my 13" in comparison. The only other possibility would be to find a 15" from their previous series of MBP's (they come with only 4GB RAM, but actually will support up to 6GB).
I do love my new 13", and unless you definitely need the Express Card reader, I definitely reccommend the purchase. Good Luck!

Where can I purchase Macbook pro logic board(I can't find my model on Ebay)

Hi all, Im from Croatia, Europe, and I'm trying to buy the logic board for my Macbook pro that died recently. I've been to Apple reseler here and they are asking too much 1300$ for repair. The model of my logic board is 820-2101-A. Does anyone knows where can I buy it for less than 500$. I tried ebay, there is no my model. Thanks!

There is a knowing issue on NVIDIA GeForce 8600M GT. It might cause be the problem of your logic board.
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2377
Btw, go check with Apple store or service if you can. Might help you save money.
I have a problem with my macbook pro 15" which bought around June 2007.I believe logic board is bad. Take to store and they quote $310 to fix MBP if the problem is not cause by video issue or free if it cause by video issue. Hope this info can help you.

What is it with Macbook Pro Logic Board?

I bought my 17" Macbook Pro about 4 years ago and while sitting idle for about ten minutes it the screen went completely blank. After many reboots to a black screen with no chimes I realised something could be very wrong. On bringing it to an apple dealer in Dublin I hope that this might be the nVidia issue and I'll get it fixed for free. Unfortunately I got a phone call today to say the logic board needs to be replaced and the issue is nothing to do with nVidia. This will cost €1,350 ex.VAT to fix. I cannot believe that a laptop from Apple that costs €2,500 can only last 4 years. I've noticed this laptop would get quite hot sometimes during usage, I want my laptop back as its something I use alot but its alot of money. If I was to fork that sort of money on another Macbook am I likely to run into this issue again? Possibly. I've read alot of forums with people running into similar problems. I do like Apple products and considered them a producer of good quality products but after discussing this with a number of people I'm starting to see alot of flaws. I hope this issue is fixed in future products.

I have this same problem with my 17" MBP - Early 2008.
I'm writing from Brazil, so I took my computer to Apple Brazil, they don't want to change the logic board, because they are saying that my computer doesn't show some kind of code needed to send to Apple US to replace the part.
Does anyone know how I can contact Apple U.S. to make this claim?
Sincerely, Alexandre de Carvalho
