No sound in YouTube Vimeo etc after 10.8.5 update

After upgrading to 10.8.5 I have no sound on my iMac i7 when playing YiouTube or Vimeo. System sound works as does iTunes. I've tried re-installing the combo update as suggested elsewhere but still no sound. Any clues much appreciated.

After long conversation with Apple support I reinstalled OS X. Solved the problem.

Loss of sound (notifications, phone calls, etc) after 1.3.1

What I did:
I was listening to NFL radio cast hooked up through an iHome with a 3.5mm cable. I disconnected the cable and then closed the application. Sound for the Notifications then was controlled solely by the volume for stuff like NFL radio or Pandora; the side buttons or the slider bar in the settings did nothing.
I then noticed my "swissh" when I throw away cards disappeared and I could not hear anyone through my ear piece when they called, nor could they hear me speaking. However, if I had the call on bluetooth or speakerphone, it worked correctly. Basically, my sound was all sorts of messed up.
To rectify the problem: I plugged in a 3.5mm headphone jack into the top and opened up pandora. The sound played through the car stereo and the "swissh" came back. I then shut down the phone, unplugged the cable, and turned the phone back on.
Now the sound works in my ear piece, the person on the other end can hear me, the "swissh" is back, and the speaker for Pandora works. However, the volume bar for the notifications still does nothing to alter the volume.
Any ideas whats going on? I listen to Pandora on a daily basis, and if I have to restart my phone after every time I unplug the headphones...
Post relates to: Pre p100eww (Sprint)

This has been attributed by most people to be a hardware issue that affects many types of phone. The issue seems to be with the auto-sensing in the headphone jack. Sometimes it still thinks there is something plugged in when there is not. I have seen many "fixes" posted for this issue such as: plugging and unplugging headphones repeatedly until it turns off, putting in a q-tip to clean it out, using compressed air to blow it out, some type of oil (can't remember what), or taking it to Sprint and having one of their technicians do their thing. From what I have seent this is not Palm's fault (unless they bought a cheap sensor that others are using as well) but is irritating nonetheless and it would be nice to see Palm either do something about it or acknowledge the issue and tell people what to do.

I don't have sound on youtube, music, etc...

Just checking in with you, Manny1214. Were you able to get the sound back by performing the steps B33 provided?

Lost all photos, contacts, calendar, etc. after ios 6.1 update on iphone 3. Help! How do I get my stuff back?

I was updating in order to get iCloud and Bump so I could transfer my data to my new iphone 5. My old phone was acting like it was a new phone and wanting me to set it up. I had to update itunes on my pc also. My data is not there either. I pulled up icloud, not there! I had a lot of pictures, notes, and contacts that I need. Can I restore them???

Did you fail to sync contacts/calendars with your computer regularly?
Did you fail ot import your pics?
If so, then they are very likely gone. You can try restoring from backup.

Imac freezes when listening to NPR for halfway through Youtube videos, etc

Hello,
I am having a problem with my iMac, and other post didn't seem to touch on this exact subject:
Everytime I am listening to NPR radio (online newscast stream), the stream will freeze repeatedly, thus essentially disabling me to listen. Also, this will occasionally happen when watching video on Youtube, Vimeo, etc. My iMac doesn't itself freeze, just the newscast/video. Is this a problem with my computer?
I installed an extra 4GB of RAM, thinking this would help, but to no avail. In fact, it seems worse. Anyone know what might be causing this?
Thanks in advance,
_ j

It's probably nothing to do with your iMac but the stream coming from the provider. Where I'd begin looking is your w-fi settings. For example if you live in an area with lot's of wi-fi networks you could be competing for bandwidth with your neighbors. This can be easily solved by changing the wi-fi channel. Most wi-fi networks use channels 5 or 6 as their default channels and most users are too lazy to change the channel although there are 11 to choose from. My recommendation is to download and install iStumbler and see which channels are being used.Then it's a simple matter of changing your channel. If you're using an Apple router (Airport Express, Airport Extreme or Time Capsule) then simply launch Airport Utility and make the change. If you're using a third party router then look in the manual to see how to change channels.

No sound after IOS 4.1 update

I really hope someone can suggest a solution. I updated my iPhone 3G to IOS 4.1 earlier today and since the I have lost all sound - no keyboard clicks, music or alerts. Has anyone else experienced this and could you offer a suggestion?
Many thanks

No sound for my iPhone 3G after iOS 4.1 update! Restored back to 3.1.2. Still no sound! (befor the 4.1 update, everything was fine).
Then I reset all settings, sound came back. But then iPhone started to freeze randomly, with increasing frequency to the point I needed to restore again. This time back to iOS 4.1. And guess what - no sound! Resetted all settings. Still no sound.
Key points:
* sound loss is software issue that came with iOS 4. (i was able to get sound back after settings reset but only on iOS 3.1)
* iOS 4.1 makes iPhone unstable both on 4.1 and earlier versions.
* restore has no effect (I never restored from backup, started as a fresh phone)
* iOS 4.1 destroys your iPhone 3G

My volume has stopped working completely after the iOS 8 update

My sound has completely stopped working after the ios 8 update yesterday.please help

I just now spoke with Apple support as I had a similar issue, where the volume on some apps and games did not work, and what I was told helped me out greatly.
what I was told to do is hold down the power and the home screen button at the same time for about three or four seconds until the device shuts down and you should see it restarting. If the device does not restart on its own hit the power button and it should restart and then you should have no problem at all everything should be as it should be.
I hope this helps you or someone else in a similar situation as it is helped me and hope this makes your day better.
My device is iPad air Retina.

Good luck there. In case you don't know this, you should consider making a genius bar appointment at the Apple Store. Assuming you're in the U.S., start here to make your appointment: http://www.apple.com/retail/storelist/

Loss of sound via display for YouTube, games, etc forces restart to fix

Having issue of sound "dropping out" when using YouTube, games, etc. when I restart function OK for a while, then have to reboot to resetablish sound. Display is source of sound and shows as input OK but does not give volume control function (may have done so when operating OK)
When using the tv itself sound OK, and vol. controls work well. this is a recent event - any ideas?

If you lost sounds for keyboard clicks, games or other apps, email notifications and other notifications, system sounds may have been muted.
System sounds can be muted and controlled two different ways. The screen lock rotation can be controlled in the same manner as well.
Settings>General>Use Side Switch to: Mute System sounds. If this option is selected, the switch on the side of the iPad above the volume rocker will mute system sounds.
If you choose Lock Screen Rotation, then the switch locks the screen. If the screen is locked, you will see a lock icon in the upper right corner next to the battery indicator gauge.
If you have the side switch set to lock screen rotation then the system sound control is in the control center. Swipe up from the bottom of the screen to get to control center . Tap on the bell icon and system sounds will return.
If you have the side switch set to mute system sounds, then the screen lock can be accessed in the same manner as described above.
This support article from Apple explains how the side switch works.

After installing Flash Player, I lost sound on Youtube and other sites. How do I fix it?

After installing Flash Player, I lost sound on Youtube and other sites. How do I fix it? I still have sound on some apps.

To help troubleshoot we'll need the following system information:
Operating   system
Browser
Flash   Player version
When reporting issues with video or audio, it's also helpful to get your system hardware and driver details. Instructions for finding this information can be found here:
Windows
Mac
Finally, sometimes video and audio problems are caused at a lower level and not directly related to Flash Player. I recommend trying both of the links below to see how they perform. If the problem exists with both, then Flash Player is most likely not the culprit as the HTML5 video link does not use Flash Player when playing. You can verify the use of HTML5 by right clicking the HTML5 video and looking for the words "About HTML5" at the bottom of the context menu.
HTML5   video
Non-HTML5 video

No sound after 10.6.2 update

Hello,
After updating to 10.6.2 my MBP 15 2.66Ghz no longer plays sounds from YouTube, iTunes, Spotify, VLC, etc, only the system default sounds like when you move a file to the trash! Besides I've noticed that when I turn my sound down or up via keyboard I get no sound feedback.
Any ideas?
Sorry for my bad english.
Thank you!

Ok, I do not have anything wrong with my volume, persay. But I plug in my headphones, and it will go down. Due to the headphone adjustments, but then when I am done with the headphones. It stays at a lower volume! With 10.6 and 10.6.1, I did that and it will go back to normal... is this a bug too?

No sound on YouTube or text alerts since ios8

I get no sound from YouTube when clicking from links in Facebook or emails.
Text alert tones also stop working randomly and it won't play alert tones in sounds settings. Ring tones are fine and I'm not using custom tones.
Sure a reboot fixes it temporarily but it stops working again after a few messages.
Any one else having this trouble?
iOS 8.0.2 iPhone 5

Hi,
Thanks for posting in Microsoft TechNet forums.
Did it work before? When did this issue begin to occur? If it works before, system restore can be under consideration.
Please go into Internet Options>Advanced tab scroll down to Multimedia and make sure that "Play sounds in web pages" is check, click Apply/OK.
If it is already checked, uncheck it, click Apply/OK then go back and recheck it, click Apply/OK.
Meanwhile, does the sound work in the following website?
http://www.microsoft.com/Windows/windows-7/videos-tours.aspx
Meanwhile, it seems you have two output devices, please go to control panel-> sound->under playback tab, set the other device as default to test
the issue.
Best Regards

No sound on YouTube in Safari

The sound on youtube performances has suddenly stopped working. I get no sound, either thru the iMac's speakers, or with headphones. Anybody have any ideas what happened?
Thanks,
T/

HI,
If your forum profiles is correct; 10.4.4, you need to update your system software. Click the Apple Menu/Software Updates.
After the udpates try uninstalling then reinstalling a new copy of Flash which is required for YouTube.
Uninstall Flash
Install Flash
Then Repair Disk Permissions
Quit any open applications/programs. Launch Disk Utility. (Applications/Utilities) Select MacintoshHD in the panel on the left, select the FirstAid tab. Click: Repair Disk Permissions. When it's finished from the Menu Bar, Quit Disk Utility and restart your Mac. If you see a long list of "messages" in the permissions window, it's ok. That can be ignored. As long as you see, "Permissions Repair Complete" when it's finished... you're done. Quit Disk Utility and *restart your Mac.*
