Need help no sound during install

Hi all,
I am having a problem with installing latest Mac OS 10.4.6 onto the iMac. Since I
am visually impaired I need to use VoiceOver to help me installing.
However, when I insert the first DVD into the DVD drive, wait about two minutes just
for sure then I press command F5 to start VoiceOver. The DVD starts working but
there is no sound or speech. I even confirmed in finder that it was the first installation
disk. Any ideas? I have done this thing both on a Mac Mini and a Powerbook.
Many thanks,
Chris

Hi Chris,
I tested this on my iMac Intel, with my Install DVD. After I saw the first window on the DVD appear I pressed Command plus F5 to activate voice over and nothing happened. There appears to be a glitch.
The first screen allows you to select the primary language for the Install. The first language in the list is English. I pressed Enter on the numeric keypad to select English. The Installer loaded and as the first screen of the installer appeared the voice said, "Voice over activated." I have never used voice over before, but it appeared to function normally after that.
I hope this helps you.
David

  • Need help with some JS installing Bumpbox 2.0

    I am trying to add a lightbox effect to a pdf on my website, I found a Javascript plugin at http://www.artviper.net/bumpbox-demo/index.html that looks like it should do the trick, but I am having trouble getting it to work.
    To narrow down the problem I created a test.html file that I stuck in the root directory of the folder I downloaded from their site (so I am working locally off my desktop at this point)
    My code is as follows... I feel like I am missing something super obvious, does anyone see it? (do I need to define the .bump class in the css file?)
    Thank you in advance for the much needed help!

    Are you working within a properly defined local site?
    Did you save those javascript files to the js folder in your local site root?
    Correct path to scripts for this test page should look like this:

  • SCCM Driver Injection : What am I missing? Need help with getting drivers installing correctly in my environment.

    Everyone,
    I'm not new to using SCCM, but i'm VERY new to setting up and managing it.  I have just laid it down for the school district that I manage, and i'm loving it.  Imaging is going great, all but one thing now...drivers installing.
    Let me tell you what I've been doing, so hopefully a kind soul out there can tell me where my logic of the driver "injection" process is lacking and might can fill in some gaps. 
    I downloaded all drivers pertaining to the 7-8 series of computers we have in our environment currently, and imported them based on a criteria such as this:
    x86.LenovoEdge71.Desktop
    x86.DellOpti755.Desktop
    so forth and so on
    I created packages based on the same exact naming scheme.  I update my distribution point at the end of the import, and all the drivers/packages/categories are in place.  When I go to Monitoring/Distribution Status/Content Status, all of my packages
    show up , but under targeted it says 0.
    My thoughts from reading online, is I upload all these drivers and during my task sequence where it says it's "applying device drivers" it's set to "install only the best matched compatible drivers" and "consider drivers from all
    categories".  I also checked "do unattended installation of unsigned drivers no versions of Windows where this is allowed".
    so correct me if my thinking is incorrect, it should search through all series of the computers we have in our environment and grab the best drivers from the overall database.  Is this not right?
    The reason I ask this, is we have a few hundred HP 6000 Pro desktops.  WHen I image them, it comes up with 2 unknown devices.  OF these, I can manually point them at the folder from which I uploaded the drivers for this series/category and it installs
    100% successfully...MANUALLY.  What's the reasoning behind this?
    I can't help but think there's something missing in my process / logic and I need to be set straight. 
    Can someone out there tell me what i'm doing wrong?  We're planning a district-wide re-imaging before summer's over, and the clock's ticking...but the drivers being installed are all that's keeping us from starting our migrations.
    Any help on this is GREATLY appreciated, thank you very much!

    You have setup everything correct, but for your desired result you need to use "Apply Driver Package" Task rather than "Auto Apply Drivers".
    Auto Apply drivers will install the best matched/compatible drivers for only the PNP devices.For more info on this:http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb680990.aspx
    Whereas "Apply Driver Package" would install all drivers you have in the package and hence you don't see the unknown drivers in device manager. For more info on this: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb680403.aspx
    If you have multiple models, create this task for each model individually and then associate with a WMI query condition under Options tab to check the manufacturer/model
    Example: Select * from Win32_ComputerSystem where Manufacturer = "HP" and Model Like "6000%"

  • NEED HELP: No Sound / Audio "No Devices Found". Tried many solutions, none work

    I have had this issue two months back, where my internal speakers just stopped working. I have tried all alternatives and what solved my problem was resetting SMC. This time around, I have been watching some videos when all of a sudden my laptop started acting really slow and was responding in delays for about 10-15 seconds and there was no sound. I quit Safari but that didn't help, so I restarted my laptop. After the restart, it keeps showing as "mute" whenever I try to increase/decrease the sound level.
    I have tried the following:
    Restarting
    Inserting Headphones
    Restarting again
    Resetting PRAM
    Resetting SMC
    Deleting com.apple.BezelServices.plist
    Shutting down coreaudiod in the Activity Monitor
    Disabling Adobe Flash Player,
    Re-installing OSX using the Command + R during startup
    Also tried typing this in the Terminal:
    sudo kextunload /System/Library/Extensions/AppleHDA.kext
    sudo kextload /System/Library/Extensions/AppleHDA.kext
    And restarting it another few times for a good measure.
    I've got Mid-2012 Macbook Air and I do not have Boom.
    This is getting pretty frustrating now.

    Also tried typing this in the Terminal:
    sudo kextunload /System/Library/Extensions/AppleHDA.kext
    sudo kextload /System/Library/Extensions/AppleHDA.kext

  • I need help doing a clean install.( keyboard shortcuts?).Macbook will not read any of the disks/ turns off

    I installed a new 'used' Logic board, im my macbook 13.3 and it turned right on!..( i was out of warrenty)
    Apple logo and spiing wheel, then turns off..
    After reading several forums, I went into self mode, did the 2 checks within in and got an error which pointed to the OS software being currupted..
    so I have  inserted the Os disk, the disk-repair disk and a disk warrior disk, but none of them are being read. I hear the Macbook starting to read the disk then the disks are ejected and the systen turns off.
    Is there a way i can do a clean install on the HD? shortcut keyboard shortcuts?
    or force the disks to be read as the first boot device like of that  in a PC's bios settup?
    I have no data on the computer that I wish to save btw.. just want a fresh install..
    thanks for any help in advance.

    Unfortunately the necessary software to reinstall your OS is not located on the hard drive. If your MacBook will not accept the disks you have you are going to need a hardware repair, probably the optical drive.
    If you have access to another MacBook you may be able to install the OS on an external hard drive and use that to boot your MacBook. You may then be able to get any data off of your hard drive.
    Best of luck.

  • Need help on how to install external web cam on a macbook?????

    Hi , does anyone have any idea if you can install and use an external webcam and how to install it on a macbook 13.3 in, black, 10.4.11 with intel processor. I have tried like months and months to connect my logitech web cam with no success what so ever. I been racking my brains trying to figure it out. I even called tech support by phone and they weren't really any help. They just said it can be done. I tried downloading the drivers that came in a cd with the logitech and nothing. Every time I try and use my external logitech on a site the built in one on the macbook comes on instead. There has to be a way to bypass the built on one. I know there has to be people out there using external webcams on macbooks. Any help would be appreciated.

    I can't advise on your Logitech webcam, but I am using [this webcam|http://www.bestbuy.com/site/Dynex%26%23174%3B-+1.3MPWebcam/8703094.p?id=1199495403693&skuId=8703094]. First used on a iMac G5, OSX 10.4, then later moved to a Mac Mini OSX 10.5 (and now OSX 10.6.2 on the Mini.) I got it not because it's the best webcam, but because it was one of the few that said it worked with OSX 10.4. (Other webcams I had needed 10.5.) I have tested it on my Macbook Pro (OSX 10.5 and upgraded to 10.6) and it works, but I don't normally use it there.

  • Desperately Need Help - Cannot Update or Install Software

    How much free space on the startup disk?
    Right or control click the MacintoshHD icon. Click Get Info. In the Get Info window you will see Capacity and Available. Make sure you always have a minimum of 15% free disk space.  Freeing Up Hard Disk Space - Mac Guides
    Probably a good idea to run Disk Utility and check to see if the startup disk needs repairing > Using Disk Utility to verify or repair disks
