Sounds disappears in iMovie '11

I'm helping a friend who has iMovie '11. We took 20 still images and put them into a new iMovie project. We added sound. (The tune is in iTunes and appears listed in the iMovie window.)
We adjusted timing of images and transitions. It ran perfectly. We closed iMovie and opened it a short time later to listen again. Although the green sound background is present and the tune is listed at the top of the menu, it is not heard.
I checked the Help menu. It mentioned something about checking a clock to see if the sound had been muted. We couldn't find any clock icon.
Any ideas of what is going wrong?
Thanks.
Mary Lou

I tried your suggestion but I failed to continue holding down the Control key. When I finallydid a control/click on the green music background and kept that key down, I was able to "delete selection". Then I reattached the music and it is fine.
Thanks for your help.

HP Envy 4 1080-ex Sound disappear

I have a HP Envy 4 1080-ex Ultrabook, running Windows 7 Home Premium 64bit, it is not under warranty.
Unfortunately the audio does not always work on my HP.
After starting my computer, I hear the check-in sound normally, after 1-2 minutes (sometimes 30-40 min.) all of the sound disappears. When I look at the volume mixer, I can not see the green bar rising and falling so I think there are not generated sound.
I checked everything in Control Panel, there are nothing disabled and there are everything all right (according to Troubleshooter).
But there are one thing what I noticed: Sound/Playback/ my IDT HighDef. Audio speakers properties/ Advanced -> TEST.
When I click at the test button, I can see a Windows message "The device is being used by another application"
I think that my system is up to date, because HP Support Assistant checked all of my drivers and these are up do date..
Today I checked my operation system, it is up do date as well.

@kissgergoHU ,
Hello and welcome to the HP support forum and thank you for posting. First thing you would want to do is try a system restore back to when you know the sound was working. This will remove any updates and software changes that may have happened.
Using Microsoft System Restore (Windows 7)
If that fails you can run the system back to the original settings by doing a system recovery.

Sound disappeared in Safari and BBC Radio Widget

Two days ago, without warning, the sound disappeared from both Safari and my BBC Radio Widget. All other sound on the computer is fine and if I play an MP3 through Safari it will play but otherwise there is silence. (Problem was discovered by our 5 year-old who was disappointed that there was no sound coming from the CBeebies websites!).
Have checked all other sound options and everything is in order.
Went to local Mac re-seller and they shrugged their shoulders and said try here.
Any suggestions?
Thanks for any help.

You're welcome.
If there is a preference file associate with the widget, move it to the trash before you reinstall a new copy. The preference file will be name widget-com.(name assigned to widget).plist. You can try a search in spotlight on look in your User Library>Preferences folder.
If you are complete, please mark this post "solved". Helpful for others looking for a solved solution to a similar question, also helpful for me. Aloha from Big Island.

How do I send only the sound track from iMovie to Media browser?

I need some wild sound for an iMovie 09 project I'm working on in Garageband (working on the soundtrack). I want to take some wild sound from a clip in iMovie and export it to the media browser so that I can use it in the project in Garageband. I detached the audio on the clip in iMovie and tried deleting the video, but it deletes the detached sound as well.
Any tips, tricks, or solutions on sending just the sound from iMovie to the media browser would be much appreicated.
thanks

With the project open, from iMovie's menu select "Share > Export using QuickTime". For the Export option select "Sound to AIFF". Give it a name and select your Save location. As far as I know, you can't save to the Media Browser as this is contained in the project's package contents folder. So save it to a convenient location (such as your Desktop) and navigate to this from GarageBand. It's probably best if you firstly move the file to, say, your Music folder or iTunes before using it in GarageBand. Otherwise, the links may be lost if you later move it from the Desktop (whereas you are less likely to move it from Music or iTunes).

Normalising Sound Levels in iMovie

Hello,
I have an iMovie project which is a video/audio interview between two people. Unfortunately the interviewer's mic is far quieter than the interviewee's. Is there a way that I can normalise the sound levels within iMovie so that the volume is consistent?
Thanks!
Tom Ewer

The only way to do that is, if you have iMovie 11, view the audio levels under the video clips and manually change it each time the people switch talking.

Why is the sound disappearing when I send a video?

I have an iPhone 5C. When I record a video and send it, the sound disappears! I can hear it just fine when I play the video back on my phone, but if I send the video to someone, they can't hear it. Why is this happening? I tested it by sending it to my email, and sure enough, the sound is gone! Am I doing something wrong when I send it, or is there a setting that is off somewhere that I need to adjust?

I can't even see where that setting is.. for my information all the footage is from a GoPro so what I've had to do is convert them to .mov and Apple ProRes 422 now. Now when I have them in final cut the samples in 'All Clips' and in the time line look ok in till I hover over them and then they have the red hint again, they do how ever export the right colour now but this is going to make colour correction difficult

Sounds disappears from project

Sound also disappears at the exact same point when imported from quicktime.
The audio is fine in quicktime and on iDVD4

I have one iPad 3. But it is frequently hanging. More over the sound disappears. I have to restart the device to bring back the sound. Today I can't even restart as none of the icons are responding to touch. Why this is happening?

I have one iPad 3. But it is frequently hanging. More over the sound disappears. I have to restart the device to bring back the sound. Today I can't even restart as none of the icons are responding to touch. Why this is happening?

Try a reset: Simultaneously hold down the Home and On buttons until the device shuts down. Ignore the off slider if it appears. Once shut down is complete, if it doesn't restart on it own, turn the device back on using the On button. In some cases it also helps to double click the Home button and close all apps from the tray before doing the reset.

Why does the sound disappear halfway through every song???

I went jogging yesterday and about halfway through every song the sound would disappear without the song pauseing. When I skipped a few seconds forwards or backwards in the song the sound came back. Then it played for about 1 minute before the sound disappeared again. I am the only one using the account. I have tried to log out and deleteing the app and downloading it again, but nothing works :( This only happens when I am using my headphones from my Iphone. Spotify on my computer works fine and so does spotify on my phone if I dont use the headphones. My headphones are new and I have tried using others, but it is still the same problem!PLEASE HELP ME

Nokia N95 8GB Sound disappears!

I have problems with my Nokia N95 8GB. It works 2 days and then the sound disappears. When somebody calls me the phone only vibrates. To fix this, I have to restart my phone and after 1-2 days I have the same problem until I restart it. Anybody know what the problem is. I tried to reinstall the firmware, but this didn't help me at all.

Then you have to take it to a Nokia care point. There might also be a chance of a faulty connections, heatissues or whatever. If you cannot fix it by reinstall and hard reset - there is not much you can do yourself.

The sound disappeared on my ipad. Please help me its my only device

Ok 3 days ago the sound disappeared on my ipad,there was no slider on the music app or when I double click the home button,nothing happened when I used the volume buttons. However, when I slide the ringer in sounds in setting there is sound so that proofs there is nothing wrong with my speaker,and when I use headphones there is sound. I have tried everything, restarting,rebooting,checking if its mute,but then I read something and it told me to clean my dock connecter with alcohol and a toothbrush. So when I did it IT WORKED,but then sometimes it happens again and its really annoying and frustrating,also when I leave it and sleep in the morning it's working. Please any ideas on how it solve this permenatly

1. Double-click the Home button and swipe the Task Bar (at bottom) to the right. Check volume and mute settings.
2. Hold the Sleep and Home button down for about 10 seconds until you see the Apple Logo

MacBook Air - a sound disappeared

After an exit from the state of sleep my notebook gave out a system error, I overloaded him, whereupon a sound disappeared fully. That to do?
Intel High Definition Audio:
ID device: 0x106B00A2
It all that is in the system.

Closing up the book is a bad idea when she is hot.
The fan tends to move air via the keyboard as well as the vents on the bottom.
Prove it your self; hold your hand over the right side of keyboard and it is relatively cool. However on the left half of keyboard heat is rising; also from left most side of case.
Closing the screen down traps in the heat.
I understand if you can not shut down the programs you are using and sleeping the Air is only choice. But other wise, at all costs, just quit your running aps until you just have the desk top and keep the screen up and the fan running. The fan running fast is a good thing until the temp is brought down.
Sorry if I am coming across as too "know it all". I don't know much about the Air but I am learning.
