No audio & No Sound Folder

I lost my sound last week and I tried going to device manager to get to sound. However, there was no audio folder. I'm going crazy over here. I have a Toshiba Satellite U305 S5077. I even used the recovery disc and nothing. Can anyone help me? I really need sound because my autistic son uses software for learning. Thank you!

Ok I fixed my sound on my laptop... I just installed hardware for realtek and then took my battery out for the whole night and put it back in and I got sound...

Why are there no sounds located in the Library/Sounds folder in Home Directory? My Mail alerts, etc

Why are there no sounds located in the Library/Sounds folder in my Home Directory? Since upgrading to Mountain Lion most of my sounds are not working, in my Mail alerts, etc.

Did you put any sound files there? Because if you didn't, that will explain why it's empty.
The ~/Library/Sounds folder is where any sound files that you add go, and they are only available to you as the "logged in" user (if you have other users with their own accounts, they each have their own ~/Library/Sounds folder). Apple doesn't put anything there.
The sounds that come with Mac OS X will either be in the /Library/Sounds folder (which is the shared location for all users) or the /System/Library/Sounds folder (don't mess around with anything in the /System folder!).
But I doubt your problem has anything to do with the sound files. Try deleting your sound preferences file, or even just clicking around in the Sound system preferences until they start working again (seriously - I had one Mac that had some audio problems after upgrading, and just turning things off and on a few times eventually worked. It seemed somehow tied to Dictation, so try twiddling those settings too).

MacBook Pro 13" Audio Output sound quality terrible after Lion upgrade

Hi guys,
I have recently upgraded my 2011 MBP 13 to Lion, and ever since have had terrible audio out sound quality, i.e. it is 'grainy' and full of feedback - very unpleasant to listen to.
Is anyone else in the same boat and does anyone have the solution to my problem?
Thanks,
Sam

Sorry for the late reply, yes mine does does recover but I still think it is the same issue with different levels of severity. This is a guess but possibly my higher spec Retina MacBook Pro can work its way through the issue where your 13" MBP can't or can't in a reasonable amount of time.
I have also thought that it is related to window server and was wondering if someone else would bring it up as semi-confirmation since 2 people would have to came to the same conclusion, yes I am weird you don't have to tell me. I am thinking it is possibly related to the lower priority for background apps; it gets caught thinking every window is in the background, chokes, and does not know what to do which is why the cursor will still move since it never gets "backgrounded". As for the caps lock, it is pretty much hardware based which is why we can have a virtual machine not read the caps lock on someimes if it is turned on when the VM is started.
I wish Apple would have more testers so things like this would not slip through. I see more complaints like this when there are external displays on MacBooks than single display iMacs/Minis. Something that may not be tested enough since it requires more specific circumstances.
Sorry, I don't know how to restart window server without the terminal. I would have loved to test the theory since that would answer the question of what is at fault quickly.

Can JMF capture audio from sound card?

I want to know if JMF can capture sound/audio from the sound card. Until now we have been capturing audio from microphone. but is there any possibility of capturing audio from sound card using JMF.
The audio captured from the sound card is to be streamed using JMF/RTP API.

"Audio Music Apps" Folder

I recently upgraded to Logic Pro 10.0.7, I migrated from Logic Pro 9 before and have used Logic X ever since it came out.
If I try to load a Channel Strip Setting in the Mixer view, the menu is now completely empty, with all the Logic and Garage Band settings in a "Old Versions" subfolder. After doing some research I found out there are now three locations where settings are saved:
/Library/Application Support/Logic/
~/Library/Application Support/Logic/
~/Music/Audio Music Apps/
Saving new Channel Strip Settings defaults to folder 3. Content in folder 1 seems to appear in the "old versions" menu within Logic.
Is there any documentation about these folders and how they're used by Logic? Is it save to move my content to the "Audio Music Apps" folder, so that my settings appear at the top level menu again? Is it save to delete folders 1 and 2?
I'm currently on OS X 10.9.4, Late 2013 Retina MBP (2.6 GHz, 8 GB RAM)

First of all, DON'T DELETE FOLDER 1. This is a system folder that you should not touch.
Folder 2. and 3. are technically the same folder. They are pointing to the same files/folder on the hard drive. Try this: have bothe windows open and move a file into the Patches folder in one window. It will appear also on the other folder. Move a file into the Drummer folder. It will appear in the other folder too.
Leave Folder 2. It is just for compatibility reasons for Logic 9. If you delete it, the files would still be in the "Audio Music Apps", but you would have no access to them from Logic 9.
Everything you do in LPX, GarageBand X and MainStage happens in the same "Audio Music Apps". They all access now the same folder. This makes file management so much easier for the three apps because they don't need their separate Library directory anymore.
I explain that ned concept throughout in great details throughout my manual "Logic Pro X - How it Works". Here is just a screenshot from the Library chapter that discusses all those different settings files (Patch, Channel Strip Settings, Plugin Settings, EXS Instrument)
Hope that helps

No audio or sound in After Effects CC

I have imported footage that works fine in Prelude but not at all well in AE. There is always a problem with the imported footage. But mainly there is never any audio or sound. I have read a few other post and tried the recommended solutions to no avail.

We need to know a lot more if we're going to help you. Please provide answers to the questions listed here: "FAQ: What information should I provide when asking a question on this forum?"

HT201808 "...nor may they be repackaged in whole or in part as audio samples, sound effects or music beds." So does this mean I can't make a song with just remixed loops and publish it on SoundCloud for example?

If I've made a song with remixed loops, can I post it on SoundCloud to share with facebook friends and stuff? Regarding this statement from the software license agreement: "...however, individual audio loops may not be commercially or otherwise distributed on a standalone basis, nor may they be repackaged in whole or in part as audio samples, sound effects or music beds."

momomikes,
Would you mind continue reading the document you quoted?
Read the last sentence, please. It goes:
”So don't worry, you can make commercial music with GarageBand, you just can't distribute the loops as loops.“

Where is the Sound Folder in the Library Folder

No mail sounds detected. In mail preferences, no sound list in Library/Sounds folder. In Library Folder, no Sound File found.
What has become of that file? How can I restore it?
Thanks.

Before doing that, have you checked THIS first?

M-Audio 2496 / Sound Pops w/ ALSA

Greetings.
I'm using a M-Audio 2496 sound card with headphones, notably through a headphone amp. Through my favorite music player, Audacious, I typically listen to music at any time I'm in front of the computer. Unfortunately, since I've came to Arch (a month now or so), I've been dealing with a slight problem while setting the player to use ALSA, and I'm very unsure of how exactly to go about fixing it.
Upon allowing ALSA to determine it's own asound.state for the card, things work well soundwise with the exception of a slight pop every now and then. It's usually very subtle, but it can be very annoying after awhile as my attention tends to turn more towards it than the song playing. The pops only occur in the left speaker of the headphones, and it's usually directed with odd notes; high or low, but predominantly the higher of the two.
If I allow Audacious to play using OSS (choosing OSS in it's config), the sound works perfectly. If I allow sound to play in Windows, the sound works perfectly. As a result of these two trials, it's obvious the card nor the headphones w/ amp accessory are at fault.
I've attempted turning down the volume in alsamixer (on both ADC 0 and 1 as well as DAC 0 and 1) and following it up with alsactl store to no avail. I've turned down the bitrate from 96000 to 48000, but alas, nothing there either.
Suggestions? It's not an overbearing problem by any means, but it's worth throwing out there.

Also try playing with audacious' "buffer time" value in the "advanced settings" of audacious' audio preferences.

My MacBook Pro has no audio. Sounds preferences showing output is Optical digital-out port. How do I change this to built-in speakers?

My MacBook Pro has no audio. Sounds preferences showing output is Optical digital-out port. How do I change this to built-in speakers?

I experienced this same problem yesterday on my MacBook Pro, still searching for a solution, several other posts here indicate people have been experiencing this since at lease 2007. I have yet to find a clear solution.
It appears that occasionally inserting headphone causes this, it turns on the Optical digital-out port feature (red light glows inside the headphone port) and takes away the internal speakers option. Restarting did not restore it, but for some reason after sitting asleep overnight the sound started working again and the internal speaker option return in the Sound - Output Window, and the Optical Digital-out option went away.
Here is another post with some ideas on this

no audio no sound. i dont know what happened???? may settings changed???
Please help.

Hi @missmayaxo22
Thank you for visiting the HP Support Forums and Welcome. I have looked into your issue about your HP Pavilion g6 Notebook and sound issues. Here is a document on troubleshooting sound.
Here is another step to try.
1. Right click speaker icon (right hand corner)
2. Select Playback devices
3. Right click Speakers
4. Enable it and set as Default
5. Click Apply/Ok.
You can do a system restore. System restore will help if something automatically updated and did not go well on the Notebook.
When performing a System restore please note remove any and all USB devices. Disconnect all non-essential devices as they can cause issues.
Hope this helps restore the sound.
Thanks.

Very low audio output Sound Blaster Audigy Fx

I have been having problems on my PC with windows 7 having no audio output. So today I picked up the audio fx sound card hoping to solve this issue. I have sound now but even after cranking up all of the options in the sound blaster control panel, my audio is barely audible. I have updated to the newest drivers. Any solutions to this problem? The headphones that I am using work fine on my laptop.

Yes that is disabled. The only way I have been able to turn the audio up enough to be able to hear is to hook up my guitar amp to the sound card and then use that to crank up the volume and use the headphone jack to my headphones. But the sound is super crackly and whiney.
When I am playing audio, on the volume mixer, under sound it shows the volume level at 100% but whatever application is playing sound will never go above about 50%.

How do I relink audio and sound mxf clips brought into Premiere CC. (works fine in CS5.5)

How do I relink audio and sound mxf clips brought into Premiere CC. Didn't have this problem in CS5.5 so unsure why they unlink in CC.

I'm getting so many weird results. Most go away by simply closing the project and re-opening and I only have 6GB memory but even so, I'm disappointed by what I thought was supposed to be more "world class" video editing software than Sony Vegas Pro which I found to be a lot more stable. Also struggling with differences between Premiere and After Effects. Every time I want to do something in Pro I seem to need to go to After Effects and vice-versa. After Effects lets me do more of what I could "just do" in Vegas Pro timeline, but it's hideous for lining up audio and having to render anything in RAM to even get a clue as to what a change has done. Need to add Audition to the long list as well I suspect. Fun times!

Audio streaming sound cuts in and out

While trying to listen to streaming audio, the sound cuts about every second and a half. I've played with different streaming speeds and none have corrected the problem.
Thanks in advance for your help!

Does this happen with just one stream (or from a single provider), or does the same think happen with more than one (particularly from more than one server source)?
