No Sound after 30 mins of using

Hello,
I have a problem, after using my laptop for 30 minutes the sound just stops working there is no sound not even basic sounds like when an update window pops up, can anyone tell me what to do, the laptop is completly new !

Welcome to the forum!
It could be a hardware problem or operating system problem.  If it were me I would do a recovery and restore the system back to it's original condition.  That would at least eliminate any possibility of an installed piece of software or quirk in the OS shutting down the audio.  And since the laptop is new, if you call tech support, they will probably have you do a recovery as part of the trouble shooting process anyways.  At least this way it is already done.  Just be sure to back up any important files before doing the recovery since everything will be erased during the recovery process. 
If a recovery didn't resolve the problem then it is very likely you have a hardware problem.  Possibly after 30 minutes the system heats up sufficiently to cause an open circuit on the board.  Since the system is new, call tech support for a replacement.  Again, backup important files since you would be sending this laptop back in.

  • Freezing after 20 min of use.

    I use this Macbook Pro 2011 daily with 10.8.2 and with no real changes to speak of (ie installing software) i've started experiencing freezes after about 30 min of use.
    Programs start becoming unresponsive
    Beachball appears.
    System freezes until restart.
    No crash log as it doesn't actually crash just freezes.
    I checked the log and saw that a geek tool couldn't find a file so i shut that down and restarted in case it was the cause. It happened again though and i copied this as the last few messages before i had to restart.
    if anyone can shed light on what's suddenly causing this it would be greatly appreciated.

    If you have more than one user account, these instructions must be carried out as an administrator.
    Launch the Console application.
    Step 1
    Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left.
    Enter "BOOT_TIME" (without the quotes) in the search box. Note the timestamps of those log messages, which refer to the times when the system was booted. Now clear the search box and scroll back in the log to the last boot time when you had the problem. Post the messages logged before the boot, while the system was unresponsive or was failing to shut down. Please include the BOOT_TIME message at the end of the log extract.
    Post the log text, please, not a screenshot. If there are runs of repeated messages, post only one example of each. Don’t post many repetitions of the same message. When posting a log extract, be selective. In most cases, a few dozen lines are more than enough.
    Please do not indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into a message.
    Important: Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Edit it out by search-and-replace in a text editor before posting.
    Step 2
    Still in Console, look under System Diagnostic Reports for crash or panic logs, and post the entire contents of the most recent one, if any. In the interest of privacy, I suggest you edit out the “Anonymous UUID,” a long string of letters, numbers, and dashes in the header of the report, if present (it may not be.) Please don’t post shutdownStall, spin, or hang logs — they're very long and not helpful.

  • Finder High CPU Usage 108% after 5 mins of use

    So this is my issue, something odd is happening, I am trying to see where all the work is happening or if it is a bug. No other software seams to hog any significant space, and I am using Photoshop.
    I've done a sample of the process as I hope someone can understand it and tell me where the issue is?
    Here is the inspect too
    https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/82899493/screenShots/Inspect.txt
    I've tried disabling the creation of the .DS_store files that had no effect.
    also turned of the icon preview in Finder > View > Options but still nothing,
    All I can do is relaunch finder and carry on, which is not the best option.
    Many Thanks
    Matt

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a diagnostic test. It won’t solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    Third-party system modifications are a common cause of usability problems. By a “system modification,” I mean software that affects the operation of other software — potentially for the worse. The following procedure will help identify which such modifications you've installed. Don’t be alarmed by the complexity of these instructions — they’re easy to carry out and won’t change anything on your Mac. 
    These steps are to be taken while booted in “normal” mode, not in safe mode. If you’re now running in safe mode, reboot as usual before continuing. 
    Below are instructions to enter some UNIX shell commands. The commands are harmless, but they must be entered exactly as given in order to work. If you have doubts about the safety of the procedure suggested here, search this site for other discussions in which it’s been followed without any report of ill effects. 
    Some of the commands will line-wrap or scroll in your browser, but each one is really just a single line, all of which must be selected. You can accomplish this easily by triple-clicking anywhere in the line. The whole line will highlight, and you can then copy it. The headings “Step 1” and so on are not part of the commands. 
    Note: If you have more than one user account, Step 2 must be taken as an administrator. Ordinarily that would be the user created automatically when you booted the system for the first time. The other steps should be taken as the user who has the problem, if different. Most personal Macs have only one user, and in that case this paragraph doesn’t apply. 
    Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways: 
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.) 
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens. 
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid. 
    When you launch Terminal, a text window will open with a line already in it, ending either in a dollar sign (“$”) or a percent sign (“%”). If you get the percent sign, enter “sh” and press return. You should then get a new line ending in a dollar sign. 
    Step 1 
    Triple-click the line of text below on this page to select it:
    kextstat -kl | awk '!/com\.apple/{printf "%s %s\n", $6, $7}' | open -ef 
    Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Then click anywhere in the Terminal window and paste (command-V). A TextEdit window will open with the output of the command. If the command produced no output, the window will be empty. Post the contents of the TextEdit window (not the Terminal window), if any — the text, please, not a screenshot. You can then close the TextEdit window. The title of the window doesn't matter, and you don't need to post that. No typing is involved in this step.
    Step 2 
    Repeat with this line:
    { sudo launchctl list | sed 1d | awk '!/0x|com\.(apple|openssh|vix\.cron)|org\.(amav|apac|cups|isc|ntp|postf|x)/{print $3}'; echo; sudo defaults read com.apple.loginwindow LoginHook; echo; sudo crontab -l; } 2> /dev/null | open -ef 
    This time you'll be prompted for your login password, which you do have to type. Nothing will be displayed when you type it. Type it carefully and then press return. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. Heed that warning, but don't post it. If you see a message that your username "is not in the sudoers file," then you're not logged in as an administrator. 
    Note: If you don’t have a login password, you’ll need to set one before taking this step. If that’s not possible, skip to the next step. 
    Step 3
    { launchctl list | sed 1d | awk '!/0x|com\.apple|org\.(x|openbsd)/{print $3}'; echo; crontab -l 2> /dev/null; } | open -ef 
    Step 4
    ls -A /e*/{cr,la,mach}* {,/}Lib*/{Ad,Compon,Ex,Fram,In,Keyb,La,Mail/Bu,P*P,Priv,Qu,Scripti,Servi,Spo,Sta}* L*/Fonts .la* 2> /dev/null | open -ef  
    Important: If you formerly synchronized with a MobileMe account, your me.com email address may appear in the output of the above command. If so, anonymize it before posting. 
    Step 5
    osascript -e 'tell application "System Events" to get name of login items' | open -ef 
    Remember, steps 1-5 are all copy-and-paste — no typing, except your password. Also remember to post the output. 
    You can then quit Terminal.

  • How do I get surround sound after compressing a movie using compressor

    I am using compressor to create files for authoring DVDs using DVD Studio Pro 4. I want to get surround sound 5.1. How do I go about doing it? I have using Dolby 2.0 so far. Thanks for your help.

    Well, in order to get 5.1 surround sound, you would have to mix the sound in 5.1 surround. Pro Tools and Soundtrack Pro 2 (the one in Final Cut Studio 2) can both do this.

  • Ipad 2 temperature error after 10 min of use since updating to ios. 7.1.1

    Just like the description says. Ever since I updated to 7.1.1 I get a temperature warning after just a few minutes of using ipad 2. Tried restoring through iTunes several times, no luck. Please help with any advice.

    I would DEFINITELY NOT try that. The sensor may be faulty or it may be telling you you could fry your device if you continue to use it.
    Take it in for diagnosis (free, repairs are not).

  • Why does my iPad mini go haywire after 30 min continuous use?

    If I play Candy Crush for about 30 minutes straight, my iPad mini suddenly goes haywire like the touchscreen isn't lined up and I can't move certain pieces and other pieces move on their own.  It's almost like watching my screen being remotely accessed by an IT person.   Even when I close out of Candy Crush, no matter what app I go into, it seems to have a mind of it's own, and picks and chooses which buttons to push.  I stop using it and come back in an hour or so and it works again.  I've tried rebooting and it still happens.  I just got this iPad mini 2 weeks ago.  Is it defective?  Is it the app?

    - Wiggle the slider up and down
    - Sound is restored
    - You can set the slider back to rotation lock again

  • IBook G4 Freezing up after 5-10 Min Of use

    i have a iBook G4 that started freezing up after 5-10 min of use. I took it in to the Apple Store and tech told me that it was the Hardrive.I replaced it and still encounter the same problem. It seems that when if freezes up if i tried restarting it right back manually shutting it off and turning it back on i only get a blue screen but if i leave it alone for a few minutes turned off it will boot back on fine. Can anyone help my unit is out of warranty and it seems that a lot of people have the same problem and it's sad i mean i got this apple thinking it was apple quality and now i feel like i bought a compaq PC.

    this looks like it could still be either a hardware or software problem.
    did you reinstall the OS when you got the new HD? have you tried creating a new user name and logging into as that name?
    Does the ibook feel very hot? An overheating processor will shut down the computer. If you say it is simply freezing I'm not sure if this could still cause it.
    Is it always the same amount of time until it freezes regardless of how long the computer was off before you tried turning it on?

  • My itunes music stops playing when my laptop screen closes down after about 5 min. im using windows7

    my itunes music stops playing when my laptop screen closes off after about 5minutes. im using windows7

    DriveReadySeekComplete errors are either:
    - IDE controler failure

    - Bad harddisk
    Out of these 3, the last one sounds the most reasonable with nowadays harddrives. And yes, your system will hang when all your important processes are hanging while trying to do disk I/O.

  • Apple TV Sound Drop after 20 Mins of Play. Also on iPad Movie play Back.

    Over the last week my Apple TV and iPad Mini have started to drop the sound on play back, after 20 mins.
    The stream via itunes on the Apple TV is stored on my Synology DS213j going to 2 ATVs one hard wired the other wireless.
    Itunes, Synology, Imac and ATVs all up to date with latest software and firmware.
    I have reset every thing rebooted and still the problem is there.
    Also done the sign in out of everything fingers crossed thing.
    The strange thing is I noticed when I watched a movie saved to my ipad the same thing is happening!
    This happened on a plane away from home set up.
    This must be a software issue in the ITunes family.
    Is any one else having this issue and have you found a fix, or do we need to wait for an Apple acceptance of the issue and a fix?

    Are you in the top level of the menu (not in the one where you select movies to preview).
    It may not have rented.
