My audio/sound has been erratic for a while and now I have no output Help!
My audio/sound has been erratic for a while, both output and input, sometimes one would worked but not the other and sometimes both would be none excitant.
System preference does not show what I have connected aka external speakers or headset and the sound output in menu is grayed plus the output on system preferences output as well, sound input looks ok now.
Had Tiger, so I upgraded to Leopard to see if that would helped, Output use to come back after a while, however now input works but output hasn't worked for days, I can hear sound when I am rebooting or starting the computer, but its gone right after.
Since the Mac its fame for their audio stability, no ones seem to know how to solve the problem, so I am kinda desperate.
I have tried the following; ran repair permissions, looked for fluff lol!....still cannot fix the glitch. Any new ideas please!!
Thanks in advance!
Since the problem existed before installing Leopard, it is clearly a hardware problem. Updating a broken system does not fix it, in fact many times it makes it worse or at least harder to diagnose.
I suggest you repost in the appropriate hardware forum - in your case the G4-17 forum(s) here:

and the general G4-17 forum here:

If the battery was completely dead it may take some time to get it going.
Leave it pluggen into a wall jack for about 15 minutes then check back.
If not, you will need to make a Genius Bar appointment or contact Apple for a repair. -
My startup disk is full?!?! This has been happening for a while and I have dumped 4500 jepegs from iPhoto onto an external drive to try and free up space. I am still recieving the "Startup disk full" message. What more can I do?!?!
Did you empty the Trash?
What size hard drive & how much free space. You should always have a minimum of 10-15% or more free space?

I performed a software update and the system is installing an update but it has been running for over 24hrs and keeps saying "This may take a few minutes, don't shut down your computer" Can anyone help?
Hello cor-el, thanks for your reply. I changed my settings for downloads to desktop and it has appeared on there. When I double click I am asked which program I want to open file. I click firefox and another box "opening install" says I have chosen to open the file which is an application and do I want to save it. This is the only real option so I press save file. I get a box saying this is an executable file which may contain viruses - do you want to run. I press ok and the final box showing C drive file name and desktop appears stating application not found.
This happens the same whenever I try to install.
To my untrained eye the application is not being recognised as an application and I cannot work out how to get it to do that.
My plugin is still showing as out of date.
Is there anything you could suggest. Thanks for your time. -

My iPhone 4 has been dead for 24 hours and I've been charging it for 12 hours and it still won't turn on. I have tried holding the lock button and home button down, even connected it to computer but nothing's happening, it randomly died on me.
Hi Lauren,
When troubleshooting power issues, we want to make sure we have followed all steps outlined in the following article:
iPhone: Hardware troubleshooting
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2802
Will not turn on, will not turn on unless connected to power, or unexpected power off
- Verify that the Sleep/Wake button functions. If it does not function, inspect it for signs of damage. If the button is damaged or is not functioning when pressed, seek service.
- Check if a Liquid Contact Indicator (LCI) is activated or there are signs of corrosion.
Learn about LCIs and corrosion.
- Connect the iPhone to the iPhone's USB power adapter and let it charge for at least ten minutes.
- After at least 15 minutes, if:
- The home screen appears: The iPhone should be working. Update to the latest version of iOS if necessary. Continue charging it until it is completely charged and you see this battery icon in the upper-right corner of the screen . Then unplug the phone from power. If it immediately turns off, seek service.
- The low-battery image appears, even after the phone has charged for at least 20 minutes: See "iPhone displays the low-battery image and is unresponsive" symptom in this article.
- Something other than the Home screen or Low Battery image appears, continue with this article for further troubleshooting steps.
- If the iPhone did not turn on, reset it while connected to the iPhone USB power adapter.
- If the display turns on, go to step 4.
- If the display remains black, go to next step.
- Connect the iPhone to a computer and open iTunes. If iTunes recognizes the iPhone and indicates that it is in recovery mode, attempt to
restore the iPhone. If the iPhone doesn't appear in iTunes or if you have difficulties in restoring the iPhone, see this article for further assistance.
- If restoring the iPhone resolved the issue, go to step 4. If restoring the iPhone did not solve the issue, seek service.
Thanks,
Matt M. -
How can I stop the 'Adobe Reader Update' from constantly trying to download? It's been over a week now, preventing me from signing out of my computer and other issues too. Can you help please? thanks!
Hi! The version is OS X 10 8 5...not sure what that means lol but it makes a difference obviously!
I did what you said now and it has worked, thanks so very much for getting back to me. I really appreciate your help!!
Can I ask you questions in the future or do I just do that through the forum?\
Thanks again, Jennie

Can anyone tell me how i get to speak to someone in customer service? they are retiring Forms Cental and i really need to speak to someone about the renewl of my subscription. THe live chat has been unavailable for two weeks and there is no other option to get in touch with these people. Any ideas anyone?
Hi SwarovskiUK,
I'm sorry to hear that you've been having trouble contacting Customer Care. Live Chat is certainly available--are you not seeing the chat option on the Contact Customer Care page? Or are just not able to get through?
In any case, I should be able to help you myself. What can I do for you?
Best,

My Ipod Touch has been frozen for almost two weeks now. I have truning it off by useing the sleep and top button and it is still not working. I have been pluging it in my laptop and it is sycning but still did noting. What should I do?
It seems as your iOS Software Is most likely corrupt. Try doing a software restore in iTunes by clicking in your iPod and clicking the Restore button. This will restore your iPod to factory settings. So back up your Music, Videos, and purchases before restoring.

If you are still under warranty and/or have AppleCare, call them. Let them deal w/it. -
