Sound Icon does not change when pressing the Mute Key

Hey guys,
I have a really annoying problem that only seems to start a few hours after booting my MacBook, it does not happen on a fresh reboot. When I press the mute button on the keyboard it does not mute the sound and the icon in the top bar does not show that the sound has been muted.
If I go to the control panel for the audio and do the same thing with the panel open it works just fine and the icon shows that the audio has been muted. Do any of you have this issue and how can I report this bug to Apple so they can adress it in their next OS upgrade.
Best Regards

I am having the exact same problem. It is even worse because it has happened to me in class before.
The other day, after coming to class I opened up my MBP from sleep intending to work on some things for class. As a general practice I hit the mute key as soon as I open the Mac. This always worked well with my Powerbook. However the system did not mute and the connection noises from iChat played out. This upset the teacher who glared at me for the rest of the class.
This is not an isolated incident either. I have had the tool bar and the translucent icon disagree a number of times.
I have found that if I hit the mute key twice it will generally correct the problem. But it is annoying. I hope someone at Apple is listening (in more than one way it would seem)

  • HT1619 menu does not appear when pressing the menu bottom from the apple remote

    I got a apple remote but the menu does not appear on the computer when pressing the menu bottom!?

    Prior to Lion, it used to invoke the menu of the FrontRow application.  FrontRow is no longer available with Lion.  The menu button will work with apple TV.

    The user guide says:
    Movies viewed in Videos and YouTube appear only in landscape orientation. Street views in Maps
    also appear only in landscape orientation.
    Do you have the scree orientation lock turned on? If on there is a circular arrow icon with a padlock inside next to the battery charge icon in the upper right.

  • How do I check internet usage history? When i use the "History" tab on the tool bar all I see is today's activity & the calendar does not change when I click on it. Thanks

    zedzed,
    Here's another thought.
    Navigate to HD > Users > Library > Safari: Make a duplicate of History.plist.
    To duplicate the file, click once to highlight it. Press the Command + D keys.
    Drag the History,plist copy file to the Desktop.
    Highlight it. Press the Command + I keys, to get info.
    Change Open With to TextEdit.
    When you open the file in TextEdit, it will be difficult to read, but you will be able to pick out some sites.

    my hp pavilion dv9700 sound icon does not work anymore and I cannot control the volume either;
    another thing is that the mute icon flashed red every so often...
    any suggetions/advice?

    Hi,
    Try this.  Shut down the notebook, remove the AC Adapter and then remove the battery.  Next, hold down the Power Button for a good 30 seconds.  Re-insert the battery, plug in the AC Adapter and restart the notebook to see if this has helped the issue.
    Best wishes,

  • OneNote 2013: Font changes when pressing Enter / Return key

    I have the same problem as this guy (who didn't get a relevant answer): http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/office/en-US/233833f7-dde8-414d-bdca-604ed8d57667/onenote-2013-font-changes-when-pressing-enter-return-key?forum=officeitpro
    I set my default to Calibri 14, but every time I press enter (I make a lot of bullet lists) the font changes to Calibri 11. 

    Hi,
    Did you change the default font after you typed a few words in a note container?
    Setting the default font in Microsoft Office OneNote affects text that you type in new note containers only. It does not affect existing text or text that you add to existing note containers.
    If you want to change the font in an existing note container, you need to change it manually under
    Home tab > Basic Text.

  • Key value does not currently exist in the primary key table error

    Im testing out a form and creating a new insert once all the fields are filled in it wont allow me to move on and comes up with this error message;
    key value does not currently exist in the primary key table
    Is this becuase the form contains foriegn keys which reference different tables which fields are not dispalyed on this form?
    If so how to I link the other forms together so that when i create a new record in this form it will automaticaly create the primary key entry in the other form to allow the insert of the referenced foreign key in this form?
    does this make sense?

    It seems that it has the table in which you'r inserting is a foreign key table.
    Take the emp& dept table example in the schema scott/tiger.
    Say we have deptno 10, 20, 30, 40 in the dept table.
    We make a form for emp table and insert into this form.
    Now, we'r bound to insert deptno 10, 20, 30, 40 into this emp form. This form will not allow us to insert deptno 50 as it doesn't exist in the primary key column in dept table.
    Obviously if a department doesn't exist in the company, it doesn't make sense to assign the employees to that department.
    So for this purpose, we need to add a department in the dept table then we can insert values in the emp table for that department.
    For this purpose, I suggest to make a button on the mp form and invoke the dept form and add a new department to it and then insert into emp table.
    The same scenario can be applied in your case.

  • Tabset in page fragment , the url does not changes when we select tabs...

    Hi
    Thank you for reading my post.
    i noticed that when we use a tabSet in a page fragment , selecting tabs does not change the current URL ,
    is it a correct manner ? I think when we select a tab and it opens another page the url should change.

  • Cursor does not change when hovering over pop-up window link

    I created a text link for a pop-up window. The link does work, but the cursor does not change to a pointy finger, the standard link icon.
    I don't know a lot of javascript, but can figure it out if it's just adding some code.This was done in CS3. Any help would be appreciated! Here's the code:
    function MM_openBrWindow(theURL,winName,features) { //v2.0
      window.open(theURL,winName,features);
    Thanks in advance.
    Todd

    A link would be nice but I suspect that you are not gettign the finger (you knwo what I mean) when you roll over the link because your href is  not set to anything.
    <a href="" onclick=MM_openBrWindow('images/image.jpg','largeDisplay','scrollbars=yes,resizable=yes,width=100,height=120')
    Set your href to "#" or "javascript:;" - the latter is preferred.

  • Camera icon does not appear when use Google Image Search

    Hello,
    I am working on a much older macbook pro (2006) running OS 10.6.8 and Safari 5.1.10.
    Just the other day I reinstalled Safari, as some things appeared to not be working properly. However, there was nothing wrong with Google. SInce then, when I try to search by Google Image, the camera icon does not appear in the search bar. I have tried reinstalling Safari twice, but nothing changes. I have checked in Firefox and it shows up as expected.
    I have cleared the cache, deleted cookies, and cleared browser history. None of these steps have produced any changes.
    Also, I seem to have reverted to some earlier version of Google, since the search tools now appear on the top left, as show below.
    Can you please assist me in sorting this out so that Safari and Google perform as expected.
    Thank you very much.

    I posted that work around on the google forums and it actually came from the Apple forums from users 'Society Girl' and refined by 'spiza' from this thread.
    Google Reverted to Old Layout
    I called a friend at a tech magazine and he *cough* unofficially* cough* said via contacts it was a very deliberate move by Google... nothing to do with their upgrades or a hack coincidentally not working as a by product with old browsers.
    oh boy...
    'Google flushes out users of old browsers by serving up CLUNKY, AGED version of search'
    'Ad giant: Yeah, we did that deliberately'
    In a separate thread, as spotted by a Reg reader who brought this sorry affair to our attention, user MadFranko008 was able to show that even modern browsers - including the current version of Chrome - were apparently spitting out glitches on Apple Mac computers.
    Google then appeared to have resolved the search "bug" spotted in Chrome.

    and on the BBC website...
    Google 'discourages' users of old browsers
    Google has started showing old versions of its search page to people using out-of-date versions of some web browsers.
    The problem was most pronounced among those using variants of Safari 5.1 and Opera 12.
    A Google message posted to the forum said the change was made to "encourage" people to upgrade their browser

    Google and Apple are not the best of friends...
    I expect this will run a little longer 

  • AIM Application Icon does not appear when using Today Theme

    When using the 'BB Dimension Today' theme that came with my Blackberry Curve, the AIM application icon does not appear.  If I change back to any of the other themes, the icon reappears.  Any ideas as to why this is the case, or how I can use both the 'Today' theme as well as AIM?
    Thanks! 

    Welcome to the Frums
    Are they hidden behind another icon ? or just hidden (click menu and show all).  Sometimes that happens.
