Might be corruped sound preferences ..
Type or copy paste the following;
/Library/Preferences/Audio
Click Go the move both .plist files from the Audio folder to the Trash.
com.apple.audioDeviceSettings.pllist
com.apple.audio.SystemSettings.plist
Restart your Mac. See if that made a difference ...

    Unfortunately yes, though technology would never move on if it kept to older standards and did not strive to do more.
    The app store always gives you the option to use a previous version of the app IF it is available for your device.
    Sorry but you are stuck without new hardware.

    Im getting error 2 when tryig to download ITUNES with windows 7, you know what i can do?

    For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
    The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down the page in case one of them applies.
    Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there is backup and recovery advice elsewhere in the user tip.

    The laptop's too far away from the router to be connected by ethernet. It's all wifi.
    No separate server app on the laptop, it's all samba
    The files are on a windows laptop and a hard drive hooked up to the windows laptop. The windows share server is pants, so I'd need some sort of third party server running. Maybe you weren't suggesting to use Samba to connect to the windows share though?
    I'm glad that you've all understood my ramblings and taken and interest, thanks The way I see it, I can't be the only netbook user these days looking for this kind of convenience, and I certainly won't be once chrome and moblin hit the market.

    do you know what it means when messages are blue on iphone

    Green messages are normal SMS messages and consume your carrier's SMS plan messages. Blue messages are those sent via the new iMessage service and are sent over a wifi or data connection. They do not count toward SMS limits, and can be sent to anyone with iMessage activated on any iDevice - iPhone, iPad, or iPod.

    Click here and follow the instructions. You may need to completely remove and reinstall iTunes and all related components, or run the process multiple times; this won't normally affect its library, but that should be backed up anyway.

  • The screen on my macbook has malfunction. When I change the brightness to zero and return to the first level of brightness it works briefly but then the screen starts to flicker brightness and quickly extinguished.

    The screen on my macbook has malfunction. When I change the brightness to zero and return to the first level of brightness it works briefly but then the screen starts to flicker brightness and quickly extinguished. It seems to be a bad contact, it would not be normal for a quality product that should have, he has less than two years of use. Not because of the bad use or crash. Someone with the same problem or can help me? It's really a contact problem? I've done all the procedures recommended by the online support. Thanks.

    Hey everyone in Apple world!
    I figured out how to fix the flashing yellow screen problem that I've been having on my MBP!  Yessssss!!!
    I found this super handy website with the golden answer: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1379
    I followed the instructions on this page and here's what I did:
    Resetting NVRAM / PRAM
    Shut down your Mac.
    Locate the following keys on the keyboard: Command (⌘), Option, P, and R. You will need to hold these keys down simultaneously in step 4.
    Turn on the computer.
    Press and hold the Command-Option-P-R keys before the gray screen appears.
    Hold the keys down until the computer restarts and you hear the startup sound for the second time.
    Release the keys.
    I went through the 6 steps above twice, just to make sure I got rid of whatever stuff was holding up my bootup process.  Since I did that, my MBP boots up just like normal.  No flashing yellow screen anymore!!   
    (Note that I arrived at this solution when I first saw this page: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2570?viewlocale=en_US)
    Let me know if this works for you!

  • How do you know what classes to use ?

    Hello,
    This may sound daft - but how do you know what classes to use to do a particular task ? For example to do password-related stuff - how would I know which classes are all relevant to that ? Am I supposed to buy a book on the classes as the API documentation doesn't really tell you WHEN to use which classes.

    If you're using JSP, then your password field is likely going to be implemented in HTML. So that's nothing to do with Java. (And you can't use a JPassword field in a JSP page.) But when that field comes back to your server, you may be using Java to authenticate it. Even there, the question is not yet what Java method you are going to use, but what methodology. You could have a database to authenticate against, or an LDAP directory. Or you could have the web server use its built-in authentication, which means you don't have to do any Java coding at all. And there are other ways.
    So the question before yours is, how do you know what methodology to use? Again, that comes down to experience.

  • Macbook Retina cracking sound when muted

    Hey guys,
    I just found that my Macbook Pro with Retina display makes a litle cracking sound when trying to play an alert, even when muted.
    Not sure if it's an issue or a normal behaviour.
    You can check if yours makes this as well when turn off the sound and make your mac play an alert sound, e.g. go to System preferences and press cmd+j (this is an invalid shortkey that's why it will try to play an alert sound). The cracking sound is not really loud so listen carefully.
    Please let me know how it went.
    The local AppleStore is really far away from me so I don't want to lose a day for invalid issue, that's why I need your help.
    Thank you!

    And as to the Tech guy saying "This is a New Problem", "Never Heard of it Before". That is what they always say even if it has been reported Thousands of times and written about in printed and On Line Mags.
    Only after Apple has made a publix ackownledgement of the problem, and plan on trying to fix it (which sometimes they never plan on fixing a problem and never make a public acknowledgement) will the phone techs say "Ok yes we know about it".
