Sound quality degredation, please help!!!

i have a new video ipod, I also have a fm transmitter for my car. recently the sound quality coming out of my ipod has gone downhill. At first I thought that maybe one of my speakers in the car was blown but I played a cd in my cd player and it sounded fine. I'm not sure what to do about this to fix it, please help!!

Welcome to Apple Discussions!
The sound quality from FM Transmitters is not always great.
You might want to switch frequencies and see if that helps. There might also be a problem with your FM Transmitter, or it might need new batteries, if it uses them.
You cannot compare a CD to the FM Transmitter as the CD is connected directly to the car and is not wireless (so doesn't get interference).
If your iPod sounds fine with headphones, then something is up with the transmitter, the frequency, etc.

Sound not working. please help!

hello, I just got this new iMac that i got used and the sound on the computer does not seem to be working, I have tried doing what the computer tells me and going into System Prefrences and selecting the sound option, but the sound seems to have been permanantly disabled and shows that there are no output or input devices available, when clearly the monitor has speakers. whats more, is that the volume icon does not show up in the menu bar even when I select that I want it in the menu bar. I would greatly appreciate if someone would get back to me on this as soon as possible and tell me what the **** is going on because I dont know what to do and I want my sound. So Please Help!

Do you hear the startup "bong" sound when powering up the iMac? If you do, that means the speakers work and there is probably something messed up in software or settings.
First, try resetting PRAM. This is the procedure.

Sound volume setting is one of the things stored in PRAM. If you hear the startup sound after holding down those four keys at startup, then your speakers are probably working now.

Okay everybody...so I'm on the struggle bus so I'm going from Photoshop cs6 off my old broken laptop to trying to dwn Photoshop Cs2...either way I love PS. Now when I tried downloading it for free from Adobe...succeeded...but when I went to the download folder to install it, it said "Do you want to allow the following program from an unknown publisher to make changes to this computer?" I mean....what would you do? Is it safe to click yes....(Don Don Don...*sound effect*)..please help...

If you already have a license for photoshop cs6, why do you want photoshop cs2?
You can just install photoshop cs6 on your new computer provided both operating systems are the same kind (both mac or both windows)
If you don't have an install dvd for cs6, you can download photoshop cs6 from here and use your serial:

SB Titanium HD + Logitech Z5500 No Sound at all, PLEASE HELP

SB Titanium HD + Logitech Z5500 No Sound at all, PLEASE HELP:Yesterday i replaced my SB X-Fi Titanium Fatalty Professional Serier 7. Sound Card which was working perfectly fine with the new Titanium HD, i did a fresh install of Windows 7 and deleted my partitions so started completely from scratch. Installed the drivers that it came with, had no sound at all. Updated the sound driver to the latest one 3.00.004 and still no sound. I'm using the optical cable for 5. as i have no choice so i thought as i wasn't using opitical before maybe it doesn't work but then when i uninstalled the creative drivers windows installed it's own driver and i all of a sudden had sound, but it must have been using the onboard sound on my motherboard. Then i tried installing the latest Creative driver first instead of the one from the CD provided and still no sound. I spent 6 hours trying everything i could think of, on Creative's website it mentioned trying to change the frequenzy sampling rate to match your speakers, well i went through all of them in the settings?and still no sound. I've even taken the sound card out and reinstalled it again, still no sound. I'm really lost and could appreciate some help. Do you think the sound card could be faulty?
In device Manager the sound card shows up so it is being reconised, also on the opitical at the back of the card it glows a red colour.
The specs of my machine are:
Windows 7 Home Premium (orignal not a copy!)
Gigabyte P67A-UD7
Intel i7 2600k 3.40Ghz
Corsair Vengeance 8GB DDR PC3-5000C9 866Mhz
ATI Radeon 6970
Also i've updated Windows 7, but to be honest i had no sound before the updates and no sound after installing all the updates and uninstalling the drivers and then reinstalling them. I feel like i'm a beaten man and it's so annoying, any advice PLEASE?

Please ignore my post, sooooo embarrassing, user error (hands up). Nothing wrong with the hardware or drivers.
As i didn't have to do this before when i was using my Fatalty card without using optical i honestly didn't give it a second thought but i had to go to the encoder settings from the creative audio software and change to Dolby or DTS, it was switched off so i chose Dolby at first and then my Logictech Z5500 5.1 LCD Panel changed to the Dolby sign and then there was light (sound). I felt very stupid indeed.
However it would have been REALLY helpful if i could have spoken to someone in person, it took me 6 hours before another kind poster from another website told me where i was going wrong, Creative really need to have a technical support phone line as their knowledge base is VERY limited!

No sound not muted please help and thanks

My iPad was working great the first part of the day yesterday and then later that night I went to listen to some music and there was no sound. I plugged in my headphones and nothing. I checked to see if it was muted and it wasn't I also checked the switch above the volume and it wasn't muted either. Is my iPad broken? Please help and thank you in advance.

Do you have sound through the built in the speaker?
You could try resetting the iPad and see if the sound comes back. Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
You can also try reinserting the headphones and removing them a couple of times and see if the sound comes back on.
The side switch will mute system sounds if it is set to do so. Music will still play even if you mute system sounds.

Adobe Flash Pro Sound Errors. Please Help.

I have been working on a kinetic type project for my Electronic Arts II class and an issue with the sound has come up. Every time I go to preview, the work I have done the sound from the song I have been using becomes misaligned. When I go to realign the text to match the lyrics of the song, it seems to work fine. If I preview it all lines up, but when I continue with the project to line up other parts of the animation, the whole thing becomes misaligned again. I have each line of the song separated into different layers and am using motion tweens for movement and to fade the text in and out. I also have the layer containing the song locked to prevent accidental editing. Despite these precautions to prevent accidental rearrangement, the animation never seems to line up for more than two or three playthroughs. This has become a great irritation because the due date is rapidly approaching and because of this error, I have been unable to get very far, and what little work I do have has been ruined. My teacher and I have done what we could to fix it, but have not been able to figure out this problem. Please help me. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

if your sound is attached to a timeline, assign its sync property to stream.
also, set your stage frame rate at the sound's rate and export your sound with the best option selected.

FCE QUALITY ISSUE PLEASE HELP

In FCE I logged and transferred hd footage. In the Viewer it is a clear image. However, in the Canvas and when exporting the image becomes blurry and choppy. I have not had this problem before and when exporting from IMovie the image is high quality too. Can anyone please help me understand how to fix this problem, as I am not to familiar with all the settings.

Hi
99% - but may be proven wrong
When my Mac doesn't cope with the Playback it ask me to turn of Unlimited RT
and I open following window
and Cheque - Safe RT instead and if problem persists
• lower Playback Video Quality - to Low
• so to Frame Rate
So that I can edit my material. Then when work done - I turn all back and try to keep my Mac happy by not haveing any background tasks running as Screen, Energy Savers etc. Just Mac OS and FinalCut - ONLY.

Ipod nano sound not right - please help!

Hi, I got an ipod nano for my birthday today, followed the instructions and loaded it all in, loaded all my CD's into itunes, loaded them all onto the nano, but when I finally came to listen to my songs, the sound is all weird. The vocals are very quiet and out of sync with the music, and the music sounds 'distorted'. Any ideas?? All help greatly received, I'm so sad!

Lianne:
Welcome to the Apple Discussion Boards. I assume as this is your first post that you have not used Macs or iTunes before. Have you listened to your music within iTunes on your computer? Does it sound OK there?
As a first step, I would check your settings in iTunes. Go to Preferences/Advanced/Importing and be sure the setting are at least 160kbs (High Quality).

Sound Levels. Please Help.

How's it going guys, my band just recorded our first song and it came out semi decent, but I know for a fact the audio quality could come out better if I knew how to control GB better. The problem I was having while recording was not being able to correctly control my Peak Levels. I was using an Alesis 8 channel firewire mixer when recording. I recorded drums with 2 mics (all we had), guitars directly from the amp to mixer to mac, keyboard directly into mixer to mac, and vocals directly into mixer to mac. The guitar sounds ok, but as for the drums and vocals I couldn't get the sound to stop peaking out. It wouldn't peak out on the actual Mixer, but in GB the Peak levels were way overboard. I would turn them down, and the music would come out extremely low. Can someone please educate me on how we can record a good, clean, Loud, normal sounding song without hearing distortion on GB. This would be extremely appreciated. You might not like this type of music, but here's what we recorded so you can hear the quality of the sound. www.myspace.com/bubblegumpopmusic Thanks. Brian

Hi,
Just make sure you don't peg the overload meter on GB with your input level.
You can do a lot with the tracks once you have them in GB, as long as you don't have digital distortion on the recording.
Use a combination of EQ and compression to give the instruments more punch without overloading your levels.

No sound, on ipad2 please help

no sounds on ipad 2 , IOS7 please help

1. If you have no sound at all, even in the Music App, try rebooting the iPad.
Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.
2. 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.
