Sounds are disappearing

I have a fifteen minute project with about 45 audio tracks. Most of the space on the tracks is empty though.
When I export a quicktime, even of just a minute or two, some of the sounds, or just portions thereof, are not present in the exported quicktime. A sound might cut in and out. Some sounds are there and some are not. Even if just six of the tracks have audio on them the problem still happens.
I always do a full render before exporting.
My attempts to fix it:
- under User Preferences > General, I set "Real-time Audio Mixing" to 1 (it then defaulted to 2) and "Audio Playback Quality" to "High"
- I deleted the preference files per a pdf on this site, which has helped me in the past, but not this time.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. I need to get this fixed and I'm totally stuck.
Thank you.

Sequence > Render Only > Mixdown
This fixes the problem.

  • PSA: in iOS 7.1.1, alert sounds are tied to your media/game volume and not to your ringer volume

    I was befuddled by this for a long time.
    Alert sounds would just stop making noise.  This includes dings from txt messages and new mail.
    If I went to Settings>Sounds>Text Tone and select several options, all I would get were vibrations.
    I rebooted the phone and toggled the silence switch on and off.
    I finally figured out that if I started a game and turned the volume up, the noises would come back.
    I think it is reasonable for a user to wish to play a game on mute but still hear alert messages. 
    I think if we can only have two separate systems for audio control, the alert sounds should be tied to the ringer, not to the media/game sounds.
    When I spoke to an apple support person over online chat, they seemed to agree that this sounds like a bug.
    I have seen many confused posts in these forums regarding alert sounds suddenly disappearing.
    Below is the text that I submitted at http://www.apple.com/feedback/
    If you share this problem, I suggest you do the same.
    My case number is 606343836
    Begin message:
    I've had a 5S since a few weeks after launch and this problem has only come about in the last few weeks, so I suspect it has to do with a recent OS patch.
    Sometimes my alert messages just stop working.  They seem to work one minute, then they stop.  Alert messages would include email notifications and txt message pings.  When they are not working, I can go into Settings>Sounds>Text Tone, and all of the options will simply result in a vibration and no sound. 
    Rebooting the phone does not fix the problem.
    What I have found to fix the problem is to open a game and raise the volume of the game.  Then when I exit the game, alert messages start again. 
    This seems reversible, if I go back in and mute a game, my alert messages go away as well.
    If this is by design, I do not think it should be, as I think it is reasonable for a user to want to control the "media" part of the volume separately from the "ringer" and "alerts" part of the volume. It makes sense to want play a game or video on mute but still get alert messages. If anything, I think the alerts volume should be tied to the ringer volume, I think that would make sense.

    Additional info, which makes me think this is a bug rather than a feature.  If you go into Settings > Sounds and turn off the "Change with Buttons" option, then the ringer should always ring at the volume of the slider on the screen. 
    The volume buttons now appear to only affect the media/games volume, and it works as expected EXCEPT:
    if you are in a game and you mute the volume in the game, then exit the game, all alert sounds are muted and you can't turn them back up by raising the volume with the volume buttons.
    If you go back into the game and raise the volume within the game, then exit the game, then alert sounds do turn back on.
    I have tested this with two games from two developers.

  • Every time I toggle between silent and regular sound the sound effects disappear on mail how do I fix it?

    Every time I toggle between silent and regular sound the sound effects disappear on mail how do I fix it?

    With headphones?
    With speaker?
    Try:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Reset all settings      
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup. See:                                                
    iOS: How to back up                                                                                     
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.             
    If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

  • When I plug my iphone 4s into the usb in my car, text and notifications sounds are gone.

    When I plug my iphone 4s into the usb in my car, text and notifications sounds are gone.  The phone only vibrates, no sound.  The ringer works fine, and the music plays through the stereo system just fine.  When I try to turn up the volume, the ringer shows on the screen, but it will not increase in volume.  When I unplug the usb, everything works fine.  I have tried different cords and different cars, all with the same result.  This only happens in the car, when hooked up to the usb in the house or to the computer, everything works fine.  When plugged into the car, the sound disappears.  Any ideas?

    See either http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1538 (windows) or http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1591 (mac).

  • My sound has disappeared-what position should the toggle switch be in?  Also my e-mails sticks a lot of the time.

    My sound has disappeared - what position should the toggle switch be in?  Also, my e-mail sticks a lot of the time, same old problem, no solutions.

    Try this  - 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. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)
    Check your settings. The iPads have a small switch on the right edge. It can be used as a rotation lock to keep the screen from automatically reorienting itself as you move around, but you need to have the tablet’s settings configured properly. That same switch, right above the volume buttons, can also be set to function instead as a mute button to silence certain types of audio.
    If the switch is set to work as a mute button, you can change its purpose to “screen-rotation lock” by tapping the Settings icon on the home screen. On the Settings screen, tap General on the left side, and on the right side of the screen flick down to “Use Side Switch to.” Tap to select Lock Rotation or Mute to set the button’s function. Even if you set the side switch for your preferred use, you can still mute the Mini or lock the screen. Just double-click the Home button, and when the panel of apps appears along the bottom edge of the screen, flick the row from left to right with your finger. Tap the icon on the far left side of the row to either lock the iPad’s screen or mute the iPad’s alerts, notifications and sound effects. Music, podcasts and video are not muted unless you turn the volume all the way down.

  • Notification sounds have disappeared

    I have been doing some research into the discussion pages to see if anyone else has had the same problem, and it appears I am not alone. When using iChat, my notification sounds have disappeared - when someone comes on/offline, when I open iChat (I don't get that whhhooooopppp noise), when I have an incoming chat I don't get the ringing sound (particularly annoying for my UK based friends and me when I miss them!) etc.
    I have done the following to try and rectify the problem, but to no avail.
    Trashed the audio preference file. Checked and adjusted the Audio MIDI settings to 44100. Verified and repaired permissions. Opened Garageband and closed it again. All software is up to date....Still nothing - unless I restart in which case it works once or twice and then falls silent again.
    Anyone got any other ideas?
    And if anyone is interested in another problem, I have the recurring issue of the phantom 'submarine' in iChats as well - this only just started recently, but it's so loud and irritating that I have to cancel the chats and try and start again. Recently I've given up video calling (although it hasn't mattered cause I keep missing my friends due to my silent iChat alerts!)
    Any help/ideas on either/both subjects would be much appreciated!

    Just to make sure, you've tried all these settings and still no sound?:
    iChat>preferences>alerts>play sound box has been ticked?
    In the same window have you moved the volume slide bar and still no sound?
    Have you tried to highlight a buddy in your list and from the top menu:
    contacts(buddies)>info>alerts>play sound>select an event and the sound you would like to go with it?
    If these have been tried and it still does not work:
    Quit all open applications, open Quicktime from the dock.
    Hold the command(Apple key) and press "K".
    You'll see the A/V control panel for Quicktime, volume slide bar to the right.
    Now select the iChat icon in the dock and with iChat open, click on the Quicktime icon in the dock once more.
    You will see the A/V control panel with the volume slide bar now on the left (mute).
    Hold the command(Apple) key and press "K", (the A/V window disappears), keep holding the command key and press "K" again, the window appears again and now the volume should be to the right (max).
    Check if the sound effects are working now in iChat.
    For me this somehow works for audio issues, (or maybe I have audio issues because of the toggling).
    Don't ask me why, it works when there is no sound in quicktime movies in safari, or when you have no sound at all.

  • Sound just disappears in Wind

    I just recently formated and installed the drivers found here for my Soundblaster X-Fi XtremeMusic along with everything else needed (Drivers for gfxcard etc.). But today, whenever I start a movie, my sound just disappears. When I try to go to my volume tap, it says that there is no mixer present.
    I look in my Device Manager but my soundcard is still there and absolutely nothing wrong with it. The normal sounds from Windows works fine (Ding, etc.) and this problem persists until I reboot but will then come back if I begin to watch a movie.
    This didn't happen before I formated so I find it a tad odd.

    Hey i have the same issue. I have a brand new 2G itouch.
    I can be listening to music and out of nowhere it will stop playing sound. It shows that music is still playing but no sound is going through. I unplug the headphones and try the external speakers and still nothing. Then i try the headphones again and once again, nothing.
    Just today it did it so i turned it off and back on. Less than a minute into it, it did it again. And before that i had reset it a few days before in hopes of resolving this issue.
    The sounds for everything else will work. If i push the sleep button it makes the sound, keyboard sound works, every other sound will work when this happens, but not the music.
    This is honestly depressing because i expected so much more out of this product. It will work for fine short periods of time just fine but this is just extremely inconvenient. I did expect more especially for apple being the company they are and how much i did pay for it.
    Everything is up to date. I constantly check for updates so this nuisance can just disappear.
    So any resolutions to my problem?

  • Alerts sounds are not working after upgrading to iOS 7.1.2

    Hi,
    I've noticed that all the alerts sounds are not working anymore after upgrading my iPhone 4S to iOS 7.1.2
    I’ve reviewed similar posts regarding the same issue; and it seems this is a common issue in iPhone 4S when upgrade to iOS 7.1.2.
    Apple, please Advise if there anything I can do to resolve the issue especially that my work deepens on the push emails and alerts that requires prompt response.

    I got this issue resolved.
    It caused due to some dirt in the charger slot; such dirt caused the phone to assume as if it is connected to a car kit and that is why it does not produce any sound except the Ringer and the Alarm.
    It has been fixed by cleaning the charger slot by toothbrush! with some
    drops of a cleaner.
    Do not do it by yourself, as it might be a risk; rather, let it to be done by an expert.

  • Images I move from one folder into another are disappearing, at first it was occurring immediately if I did not copy and paste the images. Today however I found out that images I had been using for days just up and vanished from their new location.

    Images I move from one folder into another are disappearing, at first it was occurring immediately and only if I did not copy and paste the images. Today however I found out that images I had been using for days just up and vanished from their new location. A few of these images had copies in another folder that remained and the ones I couldn't find may or may not have ever had copies. I had backed up my system with time machine recently as well, so I went into the backup to retreive the lost images. When I searched and found the backup copies I got the error "the file alias cannot be opened because the original cannot be located". The crazy thing is that the images that remained on my computer did not give me the same error and opened like they should.
    In short images that I am creating, saving, and using are disapearing so epically that even time machine versions are affected when retrieval is attempted. Any suggestions as to what I could be doing wrong without realizing it? Or perhaps other people have had similar bugs that are software related and have a solution?

    Hi Kevin,
    I understand what you tried to do but it doesn't work that way. Swapping drive names will just mess things up.
    You should be able to reconnect the files though: in the Locate Referenced Files dialog make sure you click the Show Reconnect Options button — this will give you access to all the connected drives. Locate one of the files and hit Reconnect All. Should do the trick.
    Best

  • Mac 10.5.8 is running slow and programs are disappearing

    Hi guys,
    I actually have more than one problem with my Mac:
    For one it is running slow especially when using Firefox and Office at the same time often resulting in me having to force quit the programs because they are not responding.
    Lately applications are disappearing. First Stickies which is really! bad, because, stupid as I am, I put important info on them and did not make a backup. I tried to restore them via Time Machine but find nothing under ~Library/.StickiesDatabase, ...Application Support... or ...Preferences/com.apple.Stickies.plist
    Then Preview disappeared which, luckily i could restore via Time Machine.
    And now iCal looks different in dock (the white square surrounding the actual date disappeared) so I am guessing this  soon will be gone as well.
    Another info that probably is important: my battery is swollen so generally I use the Mac without the battery
    Do you think this is a virus? Or maybe 10.5.8. is just too old a version? Do you think an upgrade to at least 10.6. would help or rather worsen things? And is it worth it to invest in an upgrade, a new battery, a complete check-up or should I just wait until the poor thing dies and get a new one (which would be really painful)?
    As you can see I am a clueless user, and I am sorry for any stupid questions in advance and thankful for any support!

    thank you for the reply. i checked the smart status which said disk is veryfied. i ran the repair anyways. this is the protoco (i dont really know what to make of it)l:

    another problem is, that i don't have the original install disc anymore, since i bought the mac in the us and when moving back to germany lost it.
    and how do i know wheter or not my computer meets the requirements for an update to 10.6.8?

    iTunes 11.04 is most certainly compatible with iOS5 and previous versions of iTunes.

  • HT201401 The sounds are working on my iPhone but the ringer will not work...it only vibrates on incoming calls.  Volume is set high.

    The sounds are working on my i phone but the ringer will not work...it will only vibrate.  I have the volume set at high.

    Basic troubleshooting steps clearly outlined in the User Guide are restart, reset, restore from backup, restore as new device.
    Have you tried ALL the troubleshooting steps?  If you have and you're still having problems, then you'll need to bring your phone into Apple for evaluation and possible exchange.
