The sound on my mac doesn't work anymore, neither with headphones nor without them.

Can anyone please tell me how I can fix the sound on my mac? It stopped working completely as if it were on mute, yet the computer tells me the sound is on. Thank you in advance!

I found the solution, I just turned off my mac and the sound came back.

However, from your discription, I suspect that something is broken. Maybe a dead battery. In that case. I would make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store and see what they say.

Then I made a call an the same thing happened I turned it on speaker and then I could hear them... The sound is completely off even tho i looked at the seettings and put the volume on high noting is sounding on its own not even when i tap the buttons... I took it off the silent before I tried this stuff I don't understand please help !!!

make sure that your head phones are not attached to the phone then use the volume buttons on the side, if when using them you see a pic of headphones on the screen, then you have some lint in the headphone jack, use some compressed air and blow it out.
If you dont see that then try to reset the phone, hold down the home and power buttons for 20 seconds or untill you see the silver apple.
If you are still having a problem restore the phone and set up as new to see if that clears it up.

The sound on my Macbook doesn't work.

The sound of my MacBook Pro 15" Retina just works at the startup screen. I can control the volume on startup screen but when I login I can't hear any sound from my MacBook even I plug headphones or speakers in.

Go step by step and test.
1. System Preference > Sound > Output > Internal Speakers
    Highlight Internal Speakers.
    Make sure that Mute is not enabled.
2.Plug in and 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.
3. Reset PRAM. http://support.apple.com/kb/PH4405
4. Reset SMC.     http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3964

5. 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.

The sound on my iPad2 doesn't work, only the headphone jack

There is no sound coming out of my iPad, only if I use headphones, and when I adjust the volume it says "headphones" even if I dont have them in

Try "resetting" your iPad.
Hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home button down at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
With IOS-5, hold until the screen blanks. The Apple logo appears after you let go of the buttons.

What generation MacBook Air? You might start here:

Apple will fix it. No pricing without making an appointment with the Genius Bar at the Apple Store. Usually an Authorized Apple Repair Store can do it with a faster turn around time and less expensive pricing.

Upload to Flickr doesn't work anymore (even with latest update)

iPhoto-upload to Flickr does work anymore. Even a single jpg takes ages and the result it a pretty much destroyed picture @flickr.

Yes, it is iPhoto 9.3.2 … and now on OS X 10.8.
I now get mostly timeouts, but here is a screenshot of a pic that made it up to flickr (all sizes look same).
BTW: Using the Flickr Upload on Safari works fast and all well.

The volume on my mac doesn't work

I plugged my speakers to my MacBook and then it started to sound blurry so I umplugged them quickly and now it doesn't sound at all. When I try to turn the volume up, and below the little volume squares, is this sign and the little speaker appears gray. I restarted it three times and it stays the same. Please, help me, I'm really worried, my computer is new. Thank you

Hopefully one of these steps should solve the problem.
1. System Preference > Sound > Output > Internal Speakers
    Highlight Internal Speakers / Headphones
    Make sure that Mute is not enabled.
2. Remove the headphone.
    If you see red light in the headphone port, plug the headphone

6. If none of these steps is helpful, plug in the headphone and reset SMC.

I used to be able to open links in a new tab by clicking my middle mouse button, but now that I've updated it to the most recent update it doesn't work anymore. How do I fix this? I really love that feature. It works in IE and Chrome but not Mozilla.

Ok, I used to be able to open links up in a new Tab using my middle mouse button. However, I updated firefox with the automatic Updates on the 26th of October and now I no longer can open links with my middle mouse button. Why? I use this feature just about every time I go searching on the internet so I really would like it back. I couldn't find anything that it was related to in the options so I turn this over to you guys.

Do you have that problem when running in the Firefox SafeMode? <br />

Battery doesn't work anymore

I bought a mac on 2011 and it was working wonderfully but since September there was an accident in my house (we're under makeover, so while the constructers were setting up the rooftop it started rain and the water got into our house and unfortunately my macbook was affected) and the battery of my mac doesn't work anymore. I can only use it when it's with the force power and I would like to know if there's a way to recover it on USA or find a way to rapair it.

I think it's a dead battery and that you probably wouldn't be able to fix him so, or buy a new macbook or always keep the plug into it

Back to my mac doesn't work with Cable modem

I have at home Cable modem and a Airport Extreme, both use NAT to distribute internet, so it seems even if I connect the cable modem direct to my home Mac (without the Airport) that the Back to my mac doesn't work. Can somebody tell me how can I turn around this problem? Doesn anybody has it too?
The Back to my Mac panel displays this message when I have the Airport Extreme distribuiting the Internet: Back to My Mac isn't working properly because you may have more than one device on your network providing Network Address Translation (NAT). Try disabling NAT on one the devices.
And without the Aiport: Back to My Mac isn't working properly because it requieres a router that supports NAT Port Mapping Protocol (NAT-PMP) or Universal Plug and Play (UPnP). Make sure your router supports one of these protocols and that it is enabled.

If I may continue this thread, I have the same double NAT issue and am using a DSL modem/router combo. I added an Airport Extreme to my Qwest supplied Actiontec dsl Modem/Router in hopes it would solve issues with Back to my Mac, among other things. The dsl modem supports UPnP to some degree, but BtmM doesn't seem to like it.
Currently the setup uses the DSL modem/router first in line, functioning as modem, NAT, router, but no DHCP (or wifi). That plugs into the WAN port of the Airport BaseSta. The Base Station runs in bridge mode, and distributes the ethernet and wifi connections. I would rather bridge the modem and disable its router functions, and let the Airport handle NAT and routing and wifi and Back-To-My-Mac.
What are the alternatives? Any help appreciated!

ISight doesn't work anymore

Hello guys,
my internal iSight stopped working some days ago It worked well for more than 1 year (I did lots of video chats with Skype and iChat and took even more snapshots with PhotoBooth) but now it suddenly stopped. I have no idea what the reason could be, the notebook just lay on the table as it did for weeks, it didn't fall down or anything like that.
The whole system doesn't detect the camera anymore, the system profiler says under "Hardware->USB" that there is a "Vendor-Specific" thing instead of the camera. Even under Windows XP via Bootcamp the iSight doesn't work anymore, though I used it without problems some weeks ago.
I've already had the very same problem on 16th august this year. That time I could fix it just by resetting the PRAM and VRAM, but this time this doesn't work. I also wondered whether a Firmware-Reset might solve the problem, but as I've installed the MacBook Firmware-Update 1.1 I can't use the Firmware Restoration CD (http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=303469: "Note: This CD cannot be used to return an Intel-based Macintosh computer's firmware to a previous version if a successful update has already been performed.").
I really hope you can help me and that it's not a hardware-defect, because my guaranty has expired some weeks ago.
Thanks, Woelfle

Ok, it actually seems to be an hardware-defect Well, at least an insulate contact. I've pressed the area around the iSight camera and the MacBook-display softly and now the camera works again as if there haven't been any problems. This explains why it worked again after the first time the defect occurred…
So what would you say? Let it as it is? Don't change anything? Or opening the bezel around the display to check the contacts (how difficult is this for a layman?)? Or going to the next apple store and let them check the contacts (remember: I don't have guaranty anymore)?

Clicking doesn't work anymore

I have a 15" MacBook Pro dating from mid 2009. Since the update to Mavericks clicking doesn’t work anymore, at least not properly. Sometimes it doesn’t work at all, sometimes I have to use right-click instead of left-click. Repairing access rights (hope this is the correct translation from German "Zugriffsrechte") helped only partially. Any incompatabilities known in this respect? Or any other suggestions?
Thanks!

I had a smilier issue... If you're using external speakers (as opposed to the ones on the display), you may need to re-select them in System Preferences. Some preference choices seem to reset with the Yosemite install.

The sound on my mac doesn't work anymore, neither with headphones nor without them.
