the internal speakers are not working on my macbook pro

Are they selected under System Preferences>Sound? Or do you see something such as "Digital Output" listed instead of "Internal Speakers"?
It may be that your digital out switch is 'stuck.' This usually happens after using headphones and you can usually see a red light coming from the audio out port. You can 'fix' this by plugging and unplugging a headphone jack repeatedly until the switch is reset.

My MacBook Pro internal speakers are not working, what happened?

My MacBook Pro internal speakers are not working, what happened? If I plug in earbuds or external speakers, there is sound. In sound preferences, internal speakers are not a choice. Why doesn't my internal speakers work?

Hopefully one of these steps should solve the problem.
1. Remove the headphone.
    If you see red light in the headphone port, plug the headphone
    in and out of the port 5 or 6 times to flip the microswitch inside.
    Sound output may be stuck in the digital mode.
2. Reset PRAM. http://support.apple.com/kb/PH4405
3. Reset SMC.     http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3964
    Choose the method for:
    "Resetting SMC on portables with a battery you should not remove on your own".
4. Applications > Utilities > Audio MIDI Setup
    Audio Devices window
    Side Bar
    Click the Built-in Output.
    Under Mute any of the boxes checked? If so, uncheck it.
Best.

HT1338 my internal speakers are not working

I went to the sound preferences, thru my system preferences menu, and my internal speakers are not listed as a choice in the "select a device for sound output". It's like the computer doesn't acknowledge their presence. I can get sound thru my headphones but not thru the built in speakers

First reset the PRAM:

Internal speakers are not working, they're not showing up at all. Does anyone know how to fix this?

My computer's speakers are not putting out sound. They worked fine yesterday, and I just now started up my computer and began using it today. The internal speakers don't show up on my list of output devices in settings, and I can't adjust the volume. Any help is really appreciated!!!

They are all in the same folder and it says all images are there, but it is only showing 1 card's images at a time. Does anyone know how to fix this?
This is kind of confusing, on the one hand you say "it says all images are there" and then you directly contradict this by saying "it is only showing 1 card's images at a time".
Could you explain in a lot more detail what you see (and don't say "it", say exactly what part of Lightroom or what part of your operating system you are looking at), or show us a screen capture?

My internal speakers are not working, but my computers says they are

I get no sound with or without headphones it. I have gone into settings and made sure that I have selected internal speakers as the output device, and that they are not muted. Everything in the settings indicates that the sound is working fine, but I can't hear anything through the speakers. I have also checked to make sure sound is turned on in the applications I am using.

My internal speakers are not working

When I go into Settings/sound/output only Digital Out - Optical digital out port is visible and Interanl speaker is not.
Sound is not working on any apps or iTunes

Your machine sounds as if it is stuck in digital mode, there is a micro switch in the headphone port that sometimes will get stuck. Try taking a set of headphones and plugging them in and out several times to try to free the switch. (Sometimes a slight "wiggling" of the phone jack can help as well)
You can also go to applications/utilities/Audio MIDI set up, click the output tab and see if you can select built in speakers in the left side bar. You can also try a pram reset:
Power off the MBP, power back on holding the following keys, OPTION-COMMAND-P-R press these after the power button and hold till you hear the start chime 2 times and release, reboot see what you have.

My built in speakers are not working on my macbook

My 2009 13" macbook (late 2009) Intel Duo Core @2.26gb has no sound from built in speakers. It does work through my headphones. What can I do?

Resetting NVRAM as well as SMC could solve the problem.

Internal Speakers do not work at all

My sound was working just fine a few days ago, and all of a sudden, there is no sound at all comming from my macbook pro. I have tried plugging in headphones and still there's no sound comming from there neither. I don't even hear the chime at start-up. I have looked at a couple of fourms on here and tried everything from toggling with the headphone jack to reinstalling OS X Mavericks but still no dice. There's no red light showing up in the headphone jack, and the interna speakers are not showing up at all in sound preferences. I don't know what is going on, i have tried everything! What should I do? Do I need to buy a new sound system??

I'm having the exact issue. I, too, have done everything I know to do to correct it. I've never had a moments trouble with it until I update to OS X Maverick the other day. I sometimes plug my computer to my TV via a HDMI cable, and the sound plays through the TV just fine with that. The only thing left I know to do is to take it to the Mac Store....

My front speakers are not working.

I have a laptop HP Pavilion dv7-4180ea, Core i7 1.60 GHz, ATI Radeon HD 5650 1 GB, Windows 7 Ultimate x64 with 4 GB of RAM.
The problem came up after I reinstalled the windows about one week ago. After I downloaded the driver from HP Drivers and Support things didn't seem to work as they did before. The front speakers are not working anymore now, only the subwoofer works and it sounds awful. Is there any other driver I need to download or something? Thanks in advance.

Hi here. Use a Mini Display Port to HDMI cable and connect the HDMI into HDMI input on the receiver and the Mini Display to the Mini Display Port on your Mac.
- Go to System Preferences on your Mac. Click on the "Sound" icon. Then in the "Output" tab, select "(your speakers) - HDMI
- Then go into Applications via finder > Utilities > Audio MIDI Setup. On the left side of the window select HDMI. On the right side it then should say "Source: (your speakers)"
- Click the "Configure Speakers..." button in the bottom right of the window. Click the "Multichannel" tab. Then select "5.1 Surround" from the pull down menu. Click on each speaker to provide a test tone to make sure each is connect properly. Then click on "Apply" if there is no 5.1 option e.g it's greyed out use options 48000.0 HZ and 8ch-16bit Integer. You can then select Configure Speakers, Multichannel and 5.1 Surround from the drop down. When testing the speakers you may have to use the drop downs under each speaker to change the numbers for which speaker is where. Good luck :-) hope it works

My speakers are not working but it still makes a sound when it boots up

my speakers are not working but it still makes a sound when it boots up.

Take each of the following steps that you haven't already tried.
1. Start with the steps recommended in this support article.
2. If your model has an audio-out (headphone) port, and a red light is coming from it, the internal switch is stuck in the position for digital output. You may be able to free it by inserting and removing a mini-stereo jack of the proper size. Inserting any kind of tool in the port may cause damage that won't be covered by your warranty.
If there's no red light, the switch may still be stuck in the headphone position. Try to free it the same way.
3. Boot in safe mode. Don't log in; just reboot as usual when the login screen appears. When you do, make sure the words "Safe Boot" do not appear in the login screen. If they do, the system is still in safe mode and sound won't work.
4. Reset the NVRAM.
5. Reset the SMC.
6. Reinstall OS X after backing up all data.
7. Make a "Genius" appointment at an Apple Store.

Macbook Pro 17" - My built in speakers are not working.

Macbook Pro 17"
My built in speakers are not working.
The speaker logo is not highlighted (grey not Black) and when in sound options "output" pane only displays the digital out for 'optical' - ie, the internal speakers dont register (headphone socket works)
Any ideas?

1. If red light is visible in the headphone port, plug the headphone into and out of the port 5 or 6 times
     to flip the microswitch inside the port. Hopefully that will make the mode revert back to analog from digital.
2. Reset PRAM. http://support.apple.com/kb/PH4405
3. Reset SMC.   http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3964
     Choose the appropriate method.
Hope any one of these steps helps.

Pavilion g6 both speakers are not working

Hello rakesh_kaunder.
Thank you for posting on the HP Forums. I understand there is no sound coming from the computer's internal speaker. I apologize for the delay, but I will do my best to assist you!
Before any other troubleshooting is done, I would like to run the Microsoft Fix it utility. This tool will troubleshoot and potential resolve the following:
- Corrupt or disabled audio driver(s).
- Issues with your audio device(s).
- Settings of your audio devices (in case something is not enabled that should be).
Please download and run the utility from this Microsoft website: Automatically diagnose and fix Windows audio playback problems
This utility will potentially resolve the issue on its own. If the issue is not resolved, please try the troubleshooting steps in this HP document: No Sound from the Speakers
I believe all of this troubleshooting will resolve your internal speaker issue. Please post your results, regardless of the outcome. Thank you for posting this issue on the HP Forums. Have a great day!

Clean iPhone charging port with a clean dry toothbrush. The iPhone port has a short, and falsely senses it is in a dock device.

The last few times I've used headphones in my iPad, the audio has been all messed up to the extent where it's better to just use the internal speakers and not the headphones. I've tried multiple pairs of headphones to no avail. Help?

The last few times I've used headphones in my iPad, the audio has been all messed up to the extent where it's better to just use the internal speakers and not the headphones. I've tried multiple pairs of headphones to no avail.
The iPad was bought in mid-June, but I did not get extended Apple-Care warranty on it. Any idea of what's happenening?

Multiple means how many? If only 2 or 3, they could all be faulty. Try the headphones in some other device, to make sure they are OK. Or there could be something wrong with the headphone port.
Your iPad is still covered by the 1-year warranty so you should make a Genius appointment and have it looked at.
Another thing to try is to plug in the headphone jack a few times in succession to see if it frees up something inside the port.
