Preview no longer has sound

As most of you know, you can hit the space bar to preview a file. If it is a video file, the video opens in the preview video. Last night I noticed that my preview video's no longer have sound. Not only is it annoying, but when I share videos through iChat theater, no sound plays through there either. Two days ago I did not have this problem, and I have not changed any settings on my MacBook. Has this happened to anyone else? Can anyone offer me any advice?

Assuming that you have done the obvious checks like making sure that other audio applications work OK and the same video plays via Quicktime with audio being OK then perhaps try the following:
Trash the file com.apple.Preview.plist, which can be found in ~/Library/Preferences, and then try to run the same video using Preview. This is a bit of a guess but given that something seems to be amiss with Preview this might be a good starting point. Preview will re-create the file with fresh settings when it runs.
Post back with how you fared.

My iPhone 4s no longer has sound for any of the applications but it does have sound for phone functions. Where is the setting for app sound? I have gone to the multitask screen and the volume bar is empty.

I recently found my phone outside in light rain (it had been there about 20 minutes). It had some glitches at first, however after letting it rest overnight it seemed to mostly recover. The one problem I am having is that I no longer have sound for any of my applications. I do have sound for phone fuctions, and I am able to use the speaker for phone functions.
When I am in my applications, including music/videos, the only way I can hear is if I use my earbuds. I am able to make a video and it will record sound just fine.
When I go to the multitask screen, the volume bar is empty and I cannot adjust it using the side buttons (even though in settings I have that feature activated). I completely reset all of my settings tonight and that did not make a difference.
Is there a setting I am missing, or am I just SOL? I am trying to avoid having to get a whole new phone but it is very frustrating to not have sound with my applications.

IPod 5th Gen no longer has sound

Just recently my iPod (5th Gen) won't play any sound through headphones or dock. It shows that it's playing the music, but no sound comes out. I have done the usual Restore, etc. but it still won't work. Software is up to date. Running on Windows.
Any assistance will be appreciated. Thank you.

Does anyone have a cure? Please?

IPhone 3G no longer has sound and won't let me play any music/videos

The other day a friend of mine tried calling me and when I went to answer I couldn't hear her. I saw that she left a voicemail and when I went to play it, the play but switches from pause back to play very quickly, which won't let the message play. This is also happening when I try to play music or watch videos. I've tried various things, like changing volume settings, plugging in and out headphone jacks, and rebooting the phone many times. Nothing seems to be working. I don't think it's a sound issue since the phone won't let me run apps that require sound. Does anyone know what is going on?

So my I phone 4s volume has decided to pack allowing only my phone to make sounds when I have an incoming call, I can also here fine using facetime and receiving calls. YouTube, soundcloud, any of I players will no longer play sound. I've restored the phone using iTunes on my laptop and checked all the volumes are turned up and the button at the left hand Side of the phone is in the correct position.

Try inserting and re-inserting your headphones 7 or 8 times. Also try cleaning out the headphone jack in case of debris that might be interfering with the connection/disconnection.

I have an iPad 1st generation that no longer has working volume buttons but every once in a while the sound turns on. So I know the speakers still work. I have tried resetting all settings and made sure that my side switch was auto lock not auto mute.

I have tried resetting all settings and made sure that my side switch was auto lock not auto mute. I have tried the mystical swiping upward on the screen with 4 fingers to get some special sound menu (which I never succeeded in getting). My headphone jack doesn't work all the time either so some times my kids can hear their games and sometimes they can't. I am super frustrated at this point. So any suggestions would be great. Am I missing something basic or do we just have a soundless iPad now?

My iphone 4s no longer has any sound expect with headphones.

My iphone 4s no longer has any sound expect with headphones. I have cleaned the head jack and dock connector, restarted, and reset the phone. This occurred after updating to ISO 6. What else can be done? Thanks!

If you are near one, make a reservation at the Genius Bar at the Apple Store.

Audio preview no longer works correctly since AE-CC update

Hi everyone.
Since updating AE CC a couple of days ago (now on 12.1.0.168) on OSX 10.8.5, 2.7GHz i7 16GB RAM, the audio and RAM preview no longer functions correctly.
The steps I follow are:
Open AE
Open project
Press . to preview audio from where I am on the timeline, OR RAM preview workspace
What happens is my cursor turns into the wheel of doom for a about 20 seconds, then the playback begins but the audio is sped up which is wrong. Video is correct speed.
If I stop the audio or RAM preview, then preview again, everything is fine and plays instantly. If a RAM preview loops, then the audio reverts to normal speed.
I can open up any and all of my different project files and audio previews perfectly and instantly as it should. It's just the first time I press the . key on a freshly opened instance of AE that I get this problem.
I've tried restarting my mac to no avail, and also changing the pref settings away from what the settings have always been and that doesn't work either. I've even trashed my prefs and that also doesn't work.
I work exclusively at 25fps. Frame rate for RAM preview is set to auto (25) and changing this from auto to 25 doesn't work.
Memory settings are default since trashing my prefs, 16GB installed, 4GB for other apps, no checked boxes are ticked.
Any ideas on what has happened please?

Thanks for letting us know, however, this is a user to user forum and not an "Apple Run" forum.

Hey ErikSimon, I kept troubleshooting my problem last night and when I loaded my samples an alternate way, actually the longer way, it worked. I think I have gremlins in the system or something, but I got it working again. I was having the issue when I tried loading the samples via these instructions that were mentioned in SFLogicninja's Youtube video @ 3:07

They are good instructions, but the Logic gods weren't smiling on me last night. Really weird and frustrating at the same time. Thanks anyways.

Games no longer have sound!

My zombie game and angry bird game no longer have sound on the ipad. The itunes works fine. I reset, but still no change.

The switch being talked about is next to the volume switch. It used to be the screen orientation lock but with iOS 4.2.1 it has been changed to a "silent" switch. When in the position where the red dot shows (closest to the volume up/down switch) it mutes system and game sounds but not music. Change the position of that switch and see what happens.

TS3938 The message "PowerPC applications are no longer supported" sounds like the end, not an interruption. Nevertheless the gaming world could use a wake up call. Is this really a solution?

Yes Rosetta has been gone for over two years. You can always search here for how Michael Lax's instructions on how to run SL Server in a virtul environment, but I don't think it is too kind to gamers.
Advice? Buy an old Mac that runs PPC software.
