The sound disappeared

I am using iMovie 7.1.4 with Mac OS X 10.4.11,MACBook Pro Intel,I updated iLife for using iDVD.
I had a series of photos in iMovie with music.
Before update, when reading the project, photos and music were going well.
After update, photos are properly displayed, but the volume of music is gone.
However I can see the audiometer of iMovie moving while photos are displayed.
When sharing with iDVD, the music go through and the burned DVD is ok for photos and music.
How can I turn back the sound in iMovie display mode?
Thanks for any help.

I hope that this can help.
In my case, skimming the clips by moving the mouse across them, there was sound, but playing them back in preview (spacebar or hitting play), there wasn't.
I had only 5GB free out of 120GB on my hard drive and it turned out that iMovie needed more disk space to make the temp files it uses. I moved a bunch of files off to an external drive, and the sound began working again.

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

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

same thing is happening with my iphone,its not the headphones as far as i can tell trying to find out what the problem is but not having much luck

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

Plays fine in iMovie but the sound disappears once exported to Quick Time

I read through all the little support things in the iMovie '06 help and nothing worked. No matter how many times I try to export my project to QuickTime everything works but the audio even though I've made sure the audio settings are correct. In iMovie the video plays and the imported song does as well but exporting loses the sound.
What am I doing wrong?

Some possibilities:
Check out this thread for a possible solution: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=7305234&#7305234 Perhaps renaming the file would help.
I don't know if ithis has an effect on the file, but why is it saved in documents rather than music or movies?
Also, are you using iTunes to convert the file to .aiff? Here is the procedure from iTunes help:
*Choosing AIFF and WAV custom import settings*
If you use AIFF or WAV encoding, you can use custom settings for greater control over the quality and size of imported files.
To choose AIFF and WAV import settings:
1. Choose iTunes > Preferences, click Advanced, and then click Importing.
2. Choose AIFF Encoder or WAV Encoder from the Import Using pop-up menu.
3. Choose Custom from the Setting pop-up menu.
4. In the dialog that appears, choose settings:
Sample Rate: The number of times per second the music waveforms are captured digitally. The higher the sample rate, the higher the quality and the larger the file size. Don't choose a sample rate higher than the rate used to store the music originally or you'll waste space. CD quality, for example, is 44.100 kHz, so choosing a higher rate when you're encoding from a CD is unnecessary. In general, the best choice is Auto, which uses the same rate as the original music.
Sample Size: The number of bits used to store each sample taken as the music is encoded. The higher the sample size, the better the quality and the larger the file size.
Channels: If you don't have stereo speakers or if your audio files are monaural (mono files are about half the size of stereo files), choose Mono. If you'll be listening through headphones or a stereo system, choose Stereo or Auto. Auto converts monaural tracks into mono files and stereo tracks into stereo files.

When I convert a .mov to iPod video format, the sound disappears

For some reason, I have a .mov file that loses its sound when I convert it to m4v. This doesn't happen on all .mov files, only a few. Any suggestions on things to check for/solutions?

What software are you using to convert the videos to iPod format?
If you are using Quicktime Pro, or iTunes 6.0.2 to do the conversion... then that is probably where your problem lies.
Neither QT Pro or iTunes has the ability to successfully encode a muxed video file. You'll end up with video and no sound.
You'll need to use some other software to do the conversion. There's a handful of software available. Just search the forums and you'll find many titles mentioned.
I think iSquint has become quite popular.

Sound disappears can't find the reason

The sound disappear at all after some time of notebook usage. Sometimes it works well for long time without a problem, for example in games. But it can disappear when I use skype conference for a while. Or citrix gotowebinar.

Hi @egens ,
Welcome to the HP Forums!
It is a super place to find answers and tips!
For you to have the best experience in the HP forum I would like to direct your attention to the HP Forums Guide Learn How to Post and More
I grasp that your audio will disappear after some time. At other times it will last for an extended period of time. It can disappear when using Skype conferencing or citrix gotowebinar.
Has there been any recent changes?
Have you tried uninstalling and reinstalling the driver?
Have you ran the Windows troubleshooter?
Have you ran the HP Support Assistant to check for HP updates?
You could also test the audio card for issues. HP Notebook PCs - Testing for Hardware Failures (Windows 8)
Good Luck!

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.
Performing an HP system recovery (Windows 7)
I hope this was of help. Please post back and let me know

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.

Sounds disappears from project

After importing a project from iDVD to DVD Studio Pro, the sound disappears after around 30 seconds of playback.
Any tips or advice would be welcome, thank you
Eoin

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

I created a video in Photo Booth and when I imported it to iMovie, the sound went away.

I have a Macbook pro and have the new OS X Mavericks installed. I have updated iMovie, but there doesn't appear to be a Photobooth update. I need to put 3 videos together in iMovie. Two movies were taken on my iphone and saved on my desktop, the other was created with Photobooth on the same computer. I imported the first 2 videos into iMovie and they work fine. When I tried to import the video created in Photobooth, it said it had to be converted. I converted the video through the computer's option and it played fine on the desktop. Upon importing the converted file into iMovie, the sound disappeared. What am I missing?

The iMovie forum is here
https://discussions.apple.com/community/ilife/imovie
That's where the knowledgeable ones on that issue hang out. Be sure to include the version of iMovie that you're using too.
