Macbook pro retina does not recognize Tiki USB microphone

Tiki external microphone is plugged into USB port on Macbook Pro Retina, but does not show up on list of audio inputs in system preferences.  I have tried restarting but nothing changed.  Has anyone experienced this?  I am up to date on software updates and am using 10.8.2.

Pick an app and select your Display's camera.  How you do this differs among apps.  For some examples you can test, see iMac + 24" ACD: Apple Support Communities

  • I have a mid 2009 15" Macbook Pro that does not recognize there is an Airport card installed.

    I bought the Macbook Pro secondhand and I'm sure I saw the Airport Icon when I first booted up, but then I did a clean install of 10.8 and since then I can not get Airport turned on again. The machine had damage to the clutch cover so I assumed the Airport card was faulty and replaced it but no joy, I then sourced a new WiFi / Camera cable and plugged that into the motherboard and tried each of the cards and still nothing. I've used Detectnewhardware and edited locations and still nothing. I am assuming that if the card was detected then I'd see the Airport option come up in Network settings but nothing I do triggers that. One thing I noticed is that with both cards and cables when connected in any combination the Airport card gets hot very quickly, which I find strange given it's allegedly not turned on.
    Are there other settings that might be making the card invisable to my machine, it's possible this was a Corporate machine in an earlier life so I'm wondering if there's a low level setting that disables WiFi, although I'm sure I saw it come up the first time I used it but maybe my memory is playing triks.
    I've also tried a USB WiFi dongle and that doesn't do anything either, but I think that could be a driver issue.
    Other than the logic board I can't think of anything else to change, and I don't want to change that, so if anyone has ideas please let me know and put me out of my misery.
    Thanks, Mark

    Does anyone thing it's possible that installing the OS without the Airport card working has caused the system to completley ignore it even though it may now have a working card and cable, seems unlikely to me but really struggling to know where to look now.

  • Brand new macbook pro - iTunes does not recognize multiple speakers, my older macs work correctly

    New macbook pro with iTunes 10.5.2.  OS 10.7.2    Setting up iTunes.
    Two speakers on Airport devices.
    Switch at bottom right shows all of the speakers above the line, and "multiple speakers" below the line.  The two speakers on the airport devices are #3 and #4 on the list above the line.  (i.e. ITunes is aware that these airport speakers exist).
    I can click on single airport speakers above the line, and ITunes connects.
    When I click on "multiple speakers", I get "computer" and the first listing which is a printer hooked up on an airport express link.  Also get the separate volume controls etc.  The third and fourth entries on the list (i.e. the airport speakers) are not displayed on the multiple speakers list.
    So I can connect to one speaker at a time, e.g. the computer, or any other speaker, but I cannot connect to multiple speakers.
    I have two other macs and have never had this problem with hooking up to the multiple speakers.
    Thanks for any help.

    Same here - the problem is - it was working for a few days after I've upgraded iTunes to version 10, and then yesterday - I've rent the movie from Apple Store and once downloaded with iTunes - I wanted to transfer it to my ATV - however - my link to ATV suddently disappeared. What a piece of Crap. I can't describe my frustration - apple products aren't cheap and they always come with some kind of problem - what the **** is going on - it's not just the design people are looking for but also functional products.
    Yesterday I've tried to turn of ATV, remove link from iTunes, start ATV make new connection to iTunes, start up iTunes - ATV shows up, code put in and at this stage I thought it finally works - but hey - forget it - I'm trying to put the purchased rental onto ATV and I get an alert saying that my firewall (which I have none) is stopping me from syncing. I then go to the support page which explains how to deal with it - but on some very old version of the system - my system (Snow Leopard) doesn't have those options any more. So as far I I'm concerned I'm screwed unless they fix the problem with their software.
    If you guys know of any possible solution to this problem (and I did read many forum topics already - none of which works) - then please let me know.

  • MacBook Pro now does not recognize USB card reader

    My computer recently stopped recognizing my usb card reader. The usb port works fine with my iphone and ipod. The card reader works when plugged into a windows based machine. The problem is not related to OS 10.6 because I had the issue prior to upgrade. I must of updated something software related that is causing the problem. Anyone have any ideas?

    My computer recently stopped recognizing my usb card reader.
    We'll need to know exactly what you mean by this. Plug in the reader, without a card in it. Go to Apple Menu > About this Mac > More Info and click on USB in the left column of System Profiler. Do you see *Mass Storage Device* listed under one of the USB port entries in the right part of the window? If so, the reader is recognized. If not, it really isn't. In that case, reset the SMC in your MBP:

    Then test again and post back with results.

  • Macbook pro retina does not turn on-

    was fine when I closed it and left it to charge overnight
    This happened before and I took it to a Genius at the Apple store who took it in the back and brought it back on.  Didn't tell me what he did but now I'm travelling and can't go to the store.  Does anyone know how to magically make it come back to life?

    Look at this Apple support article:

  • My MacBook Pro Retina does not load some pages' graphics

    As written in the title, when i try to load Apple Online Store page for example, it loads only text and links.

    Safari as written in the tags, but the problem now is solved. It was a general problem not caused by my Mac, but it was only an Apple Online Store updating. There is also another problem with safari, but I'll create a new topic for that.

  • Premiere Pro CS6 does not recognize USB PnP Sound device connected  to iMac OSX even when activated in Audio MIDI setup. The iMac(i-7 processor,16 GB)   is working with this USB device without any problem

    Premiere Pro CS6 does not recognize the USB PnP Sound device in order to produce a commentary sound track. The USB device has been activated on the iMac OSX by using the Audio-MIDI-setup and is working correctly with the iMac. When opening > presets >audio hardware I can only select between >standard >out  integrated > digital input integrated >microphone integrated. USB PnP is not indicated at this place.
    With the built-in microphone of the iMac I can produce the commentary sound track, but I would prefer a stand alone version for better quality.
    Your help is highly appreciated. Thanks in advance, Annemarie!

    I'm using a Logitech Webcam Pro 9000 (which has a microphone on the side). I have several other devices plugged into separate USB slots: a keyboard, a mouse, my iPhone, and a Roland keyboard midi controller.
    I've considered that maybe the webcam/mic combo is the culprit. If USB doesn't work at a constant speed, that could very well be causing the issue! The sound begins to lag badly sometimes when it's working properly, so that there's a multisecond delay between speaking and hearing my voice repeated back over the mic which is another sign that something is wrong. I've also caught it making a strange electronic sound during its "hang" time once it stops taking sound input correctly.
    Maybe I should try to use line-in and forgo USB altogether then. I think I'd need a preamp and some sort of converter for that since the Mac Mini lacks a powered mic jack. I'm only a newbie musician so I've never set up such a system but it might be a better solution in the long run.
    I'll check to see if it hangs before or after my computer enters suspend mode, that's a good suggestion too. Thank you for your help!

    I still don't know what happened to my test Aperture Library after the update to 3.4...Not only were my previews lost, but so were the original images!  Needless to say, I haven't bothered to update the main library on the Mac Pro because I don't want to deal with this level of uncertainty (even with backups in place).

    Note - that no internet backup service has been proven to be safe and effective for backing up the iPhoto library - unless you personally have backup uyp an iPhoto library and restored it sucussfuly form one it should not be recommended - a large number of people have lost their photos trying it

    You haven't identified the version so I can't tell if offering you contact options for Adobe Support will be of use to you.  But they will likely be your only hope of getting resolution unless you just happen to be using the wrong number as the serial number.
