Sound Ouput Problems

I went to access a video tutorial yesterday on the Adobe website. The video played but there was no sound, just a high-pitched whine and intermittent beeps.
A couple of weeks ago, before all the recent updates, the video tutorial played fine.
Also checked out Quicktime yesterday, pulled up a video and again it played without any sound, just the whine and bleeps.
Checked out Absynth 4 and Korg Legacy M1 in their stand alone version. Again, no sound just the whine and bleeps.
Opened up Bias Peak Pro, played back a sound file and the same thing, no sound just this whine and bleeps. It does appear that the bleeps are connected to the volume of whatever is being played.
Opened up Digital Peformer, called in Absynth 4 and it played fine.
Called up iTunes and it plays fine.
One thing I have noticed is that when I open sound in System Preferences, which I have set to MOTU 828 MkII for input and ouput, it seems to default to Soundflower (2ch)for the input.
I have made no hardware of software adjustments, other than updating the recent Apple updates.
Anyone got any suggestions as to how I can get back up and running in the various applications I have mentioned.

Thank you for treating my original post with the contempt that it deserved.
The problem is sorted and lay in the MOTU 828 MkII settings.
I guess you all just wanted me to suffer.

Some videos that are taken with my iphone's camera are not making sounds, this problem occured today to all videos i recorded starting from today, please help

It also takes time for the photos to be transferred out of your iPhone and into Photo stream on Apple's iCloud servers.
Note that this can't happen if your iPhone is not connected to a WiFi network:
When you enable My Photo Stream on your devices, all new photos you take or import to those devices will be automatically added to your photo stream.
iOS devices: New photos you take are automatically uploaded to your photo stream when you leave the Camera app and are connected to Wi-Fi. My Photo Stream does not push photos over cellular connections.
Macs: Any new photos you import to iPhoto or Aperture begin uploading automatically when you have a Wi-Fi or Ethernet connection. Or you can change your iPhoto or Aperture preferences so that only photos you manually add to My Photo Stream are uploaded.
PC with iCloud Control Panel 2.0 or later: Open a Windows Explorer window and under Favorites select iCloud Photos if you are using iCloud Control Panel 3.0 (or Photo Stream if you are using 2.0 to 2.1.2). Open My Photo Stream. Click the "Add photos" button. Select the photos to import to My Photo Stream, then click Open.

It helps to be more descriptive when you post and tell us exactly what you are doing.
That being said, I guess that you are going to file>save for web & devices. The checkerboard that you are seeing simply means that those areas are transparent.

Sound device problem in ZONE

I created a solaris zone for my desktop use, but the sound device was not avaialbe. I tried to export it from the global zone:
device
match: /dev/sound/*
then rebooted the zone, login it, found there were several files added in /dev:
lrwxrwxrwx   1 root     root           7 Sep 17 14:50 /dev/audio -> sound/0
lrwxrwxrwx   1 root     root          10 Sep 17 14:50 /dev/audioctl -> sound/0ctl
crw-------   1 root     root      34, 0 Sep 17 14:50 /dev/sound/0
crw------- 1 root     root      34, 1 Sep 17 14:50 /dev/sound/0ctlThe problem is: how to change the /dev/sound/* files for all users to read and write, permanently?
I tried the following methods but failed:
1. Change manually these files' mode to a+rw as root. But once I logged out the zone or rebooted the zone, the changes were lost.
2. Create a script in /etc/init.d/ and link it to /etc/rc3.d/ to let it auto execcute when boot, as below:
#!/sbin/sh
/usr/bin/chmod a+rw /dev/sound/*
echo `date '+%D %H:%M:%S' > /var/tmp/enable.audio.log
ls -le /dev/sound/* >> /var/tmp/enable.audio.logthe content of /var/tmp/enable.audio.log is something like:
crw-rw-rw-   1 root     root      34, 0 9月 17 14:50:30 2005 /dev/sound/0
crw-rw-rw-   1 root     root      34, 1 9月 17 14:50:30 2005 /dev/sound/0ctlBut oddly, the permissions of these files would always be changed back to the original state soon, automatically.
3. I added an entry in /var/spool/cron/crontabs/root to change the permissions every 10 mins, and it did work, strangely. However I think it's not a good method, because I have to wait for 10 minutes before I can login it (if I login the zone before the permissions were changed, the sound device will never work)
Thanks in advance.

It's probably /etc/logindevperm that's fighting you. Read the comments in that file, then you can modify /dev/sound in it.
The idea is that only the user logged in on the console would normally have access to the audio device and the frame buffer, so the permissions are reset at login.
If you're having folks login through a separate zone, this changes that assumption.

Why does Panther System Prefs for Sound ouput only permits headphones?

I was OK with external speakers until I broke a wire. Now I cannot hear sounds from my internal speaker because the Sound Ouput Pane only shows headphones and not internal speakers. Version 10.3.9. The local Mac rep said there was nothing he could do because I was out of warranty and didnt have Apple Care. Thx for help.

I think if Sound Control Panel shows 'headphones' it thinks (correctly or not) that something is plugged into the headphone socket (which will disconnect/disable the internal speakers). My G5 recognises immediately I connect/disconnect anything to the external spkrs/phones socket, thus 'Internal Speaker' is only available if I've nothing in the socket.
If you've nothing connected and still no 'Internal' available then I'd think the System's got confused ? Try plugging/unplugging a jack with the Control Panel open, see if it reflects the physical change ?

Audigy 2 sound card problems

I am hoping that someone out there can help me in a crucial situation.
I am using an Audigy 2 sound card with creative 5. speakers.
I also use Adobe Audition to edit, record sessions for my voice-over jobs.
Recently, I attempted to hook up a web cam so that I could see my grand daughter on the west coast.
After hooking up the web cam, I noticed my home studio environment changed drastically. I began having trouble with recording using my microphone through my Macki mixer. I began hearing a continuous hiss that I had never experienced before.
In fact after uninstalling the web cam, and restarting my computer, I got that horrible blue screen on my computer indicating the world was about to end! Smile
Long story short, I was able to finally get my computer back up, but I continue to experience problems recording "clean' audio".
Three things, after reinstalling Creative from disc several times and restarting my computer I receive a window stating Creative Media Source Detector.....Unable to load needed components....Please reinstall the application"
Also, when trying to test my sound hardware I get a message stating...Direct play voice setup..."an error occurred during direct play voice setup....error code 0x80004005
Last but not least I cannot access the "Creative diagnostic feature on my computer. I only get a small window for this feature that will not open up fully and allow me to run a diagnostic test!
I know this is a lot to absorb, but I cannot get anyone from Creative to address my problems because I am out of warranty and therefore not getting any love from this company.
Need your advice and or guidance on this.
Please respond when time allows.

Re: Audigy 2 sound card problems? use add/remove programs and remove all creative software and drivers, then do the same for your web cam and unplug it
restart your pc
download and install [url="http://downloads.guru3d.com/Guru3D---Driver-Sweeper-%28Setup%29-download-655.html" rel="nofollow">driver sweeper[/url] and use it to clean up any left over creative bits and bobs and restart your pc when it asks you to
now download and install the [url="http://support.creative.com/Products/product_list.aspx?catID=&CatName=Sound+Blaster" rel="nofollow">latest audigy drivers[/url]
once your back in to windows try recording something and see if everything's back to normal
now reinstalling your web cam but don't reinstall using the cd that came with it
find the manufacturer's website and get the latest drivers
install cd's best avoided simply because the software and drivers they contain are typically the initial release versions, and so potentially very old
and i think we can all agree that old, buggy drivers can be a real pain

How I fixed my Toshiba Satellite sound distortion problem

I've been trying to get the garbled sound recording problem fixed on my Satllite L745-S4210 for months. I have been on this forum and other forums. Alot of people have given me their time trying to fix it, but I managed to do it myself. In the Microphone Properties Advanced Section is a box "enable audio enhancements" I unchecked that box and all my recordings are now crystal clear!

Fixed my sound crackling problem! Soundblast X-fi Xtrememusic c

I received my Soundblaster X-fi Xtrememusic card yesterday evening and having sound crackling problem. I could hear this crackling sound whenever I play music CD or play Battlefield 2 and it was annoying,? So I searched Google about this and found a thread on this forum about a bunch of people having this same problem. I just thought I should post my problem/solution to see if this fixes for you guys. The issue with my system was because of my wireless Belkin Pre-N desktop card. Here is how I found out:?. Was having crackling problem so I reinstalled Windows XP w/ SP22. After Windows XP installed, the first driver I installed was for?Soundblaster X-fi card3. Tested the sound by playing music CD. Couldn't detect any crackling sound.4. Installed Belkin?wireless?Pre-n desktop card driver and crackling sound returns. >5. Uninstall Belkin driver and turned off computer6. Put in my old D-Link DWL 520 Wireless card and installed driver for it. So far X-fi seems to like D-Link DWL 520 card!?I tested with D-Link DWL 520 by listening to music and downloading 28mb file off Nvidia and no crackling sound! I hope this help for you guys!

JoBautista,
you still have the option (before your warranty expires) of purchasing an AppleCare Protection Plan, which will provide an additional two years of coverage. Once your warranty expires, you will no longer have the option of purchasing AppleCare.

Ipod second Generation sound quality problem.

Hello there,
i´ve been using my nano for 1 year without any problems, with the first version (i think 1.1.3) that came with the equipment.
The sound quality was great until i update it to the last FW. The sound quality is terrible. Very very bad.
Please, how can i reinstall the old version of the FW?
many thanks to anyone
Nuno

I'm having the same problem. If you find a solution please let me know. Ever since I installed the last update my nano sound quality is awful when I try to play it in my car via my iPod connector or use headphones.

Sound card problem - This device cannot start. (Code

hi all,
here's my situation...
i had a dell dimension 4400 that came with a sound blaster li've! value(wdm) sound card. i recently got a new motherboard/case etc. i transferred the sound card to my new system and i get a "This device cannot start. (Code 0)" error when i check device manager. for some reason, the game port on the sound card is working fine, but the audio processor part has the error. windows recognizes the card, but it won't use it. the card is a little over 3 years old.
now, i've read the forums, tried a clean install, registry tweaks, changed bios settings, even did a hd format. i also tried different pci slots. i have sp2 and all my other drivers are updated.
the new motherboard i have is a gigabyte 8ipe000g. i already contacted gigabyte, did not get much help. it has onboard ac97 audio. i disabled the onboard audio, but it did not seem to change anything. i have also tried windows drivers, the dell drivers from the cd, and the drivers from the creative website. none of them changed anything. i am now having trouble removing the drivers from add/remove programs. i keep removing them, but they still remain, even after using the wdm driver remover from the cd (a file named ctapxx.exe, or something similar). it's almost like windows is not actually installing the drivers when i install them. i'm wondering if the code 0 error is specifically driver related.
the first time i disabled the onboard audio and updated the drivers a weird thing happened. every time i started the computer up it would crash when it got to the desktop. it no longer does this for some reason, everything now starts up, but i have no audio. the sound card is the only device giving me problems on my system.
is there anything else i need plugged into the sound card? all i have is the sound card plugged into the pci slot, and an audio cord going from the card to my dvd dri've. is there anything that is supposed to go from the card directly to the motherboard? as far as i can tell, i have everything hooked up correctly. i don't understand why the game port works, but not the audio processor.
so, i have basically tried everything. seems like quite a few people get code 0 errors with some sort of hardware they have, but it usually seems like there is no definite solution.
does anyone have a similar problem, or a solution? hopefully i don't have to get a new sound card. i would just stick with my onboard audio, but i hear it can cause problems with games.

Since you have a new board it maybe a bios setting.
Is there IRQ conflict from the soundcard.
Maybe remove the card and unistall the software, use a tool "driver cleaner pro" to remove all creative files.
Check your mainboard manual on what pci slot that dont share, i hear slot 3 is the one to use, i use slot 5.
Fit the card and reinstall.
Best of luck.

Windows 7 64 bit Sound Card Problem

In January 2009, we had a 64 bit operating system problem http://forums.adobe.com/message/1015026#1015026. Our software, which was published using Version 6.5, was freezing on a customer’s computer on playing the first sound file, then if the sound file was by-passed, on displaying the first swf. The problem was eventually resolved by Mike Baker publishing our a6p file in Authorware 7, and this cured the fault. So we upgraded to Authorware 7.02 and since then no further problems ... until December 2010.
We launched our Italian Course late November and had a not dissimilar sort of problem reported by a customer. He's tried uninstalling & re-installing the software but the fault keeps re-occurring. The computer displays a "not responding" message. Debugging, we discovered that the message appears when trying to play the initial mp3 file (fixed bit rate) … the program does eventually continue but without playing the sound file. It then keeps hanging (there are thousands of sound files in our course), and none of the sound files play: text & pictures are displaying normally. Eventually the program freezes and has to be killed with ctrl+alt+delete.
The computer in question is a Dell Inspiron 580s, & the operating system Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit. I’m awaiting details of the sound card & confirmation that his drivers are up-to-date but I presume they will be (Windows 7 default is to keep drivers updated). I haven’t got the customer to carry out basic tests sound file tests yet, but he indicates no problems with Media Player or with iTunes.
Extras in our XTRAS folder include:-
AWMP3.X32
MIX32.X32
MIXVIEW.X32
NETFILE.X32
SWADCMPR.X32
VIEWSVC.X32
INETURL.X32
FLASHASSET/FLASHAST.X32
The database for our Italian course is now in ProgramData. (previous courses, database was in Program Files and run in XP compatible mode). We’re having problems with this location with Windows 7 64 bit … it is maintaining a copy in Virtual Store and updating the file there. No such problem with XP, Vista or Windows 7 32 bit. I see this as an unrelated problem. We got the customer to run the software in XP mode but the problem was not corrected.
We do have customers successfully running our software on Windows 7 64 bit operating system computers; we had a minor ODBC glitch reported recently from a 64 bit user.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Tom,
I concur with Steve that this is probably system-specific. A couple of things you may want to try:
1. Be sure you're using the Xtras that came with Authorware 7.02 and not 6.5. For example, I believe mixview.x32 and viewsvc.x32 were updated in Authorware 7.
2. Try making a little AW program with 4 or 5 buttons that each trigger an imported MP3 file, where each audio file has different output settings (e.g. mono vs stereo, 64kbps vs. 92 kbps, etc.). Package it up and send it to the Dell user to test it. You may stumble upon an audio output setting that works on that particular machine.

Sound/Video Problem after Downloading iTunes 10.5

I recently downloaded the most recent iTunes update, 10.5. After downloading it, I am having problems with the sound and picture of television shows. When I try to watch a tv show, the sound is muffled, and the picture slows or skips constantly. This happens on every tv show I've tried to play, not just one. I haven't noticed any problems with sound from songs though. I had this problem once before after downloading the previous version of iTunes, and completely uninstalled and reinstalled iTunes to solve the issue, and it worked. However, I tried doing it once again this time, and there was no success. I've tried disabling sound enhancements, and that also had no effect. Quicktime is installed and updated as well. I'm running Windows 7. Any help or advice is appeciated.

I'm not sure I quite understand what you mean. iTunes doesn't save a folder of playlists, but if you mean that the iTunes library is empty, or doesn't contain playlists that it had before the upgrade then either restore your backup or make use of the following...
Empty/corrupt library after upgrade/crash
Hopefully it's not been too long since you last upgraded iTunes, in fact if you get an empty/incomplete library immediately after upgrading then with the following steps youshouldn't lose a thing or need to do any further housekeeping. In the Previous iTunes Libraries folder should be a number of dated iTunes Library files. Take the most recent of these and copy it into the iTunes folder. Rename iTunes Library.itl as iTunes Library (Corrupt).itl and then rename the restored file as iTunes Library.itl. Start iTunes. Should all be good, bar any recent additions to or deletions from your library.
See iTunes Folder Watch for a tool to catch up with any changes since the backup file was created.
When you get it all working make a backup!
