The sound volume

The sound volume when I startup my computer always reverts back to a lower volume—even though I use the F12 key to increase the volume.
Is there a way to set the volume so it remains at my desires setting after restarting the computer?
Thanks.

Satellite P10-804: Cannot alter the sound volume control

The Sound Volume Control on the front of the unit has set itself to far in the whole and cannot be altered.
Is this something I can fix ?

I dont know if you can fix it.
Do you have enough experience to disassemble the notebook?
Do you have good experience in soldering?
The volume controller is fixed on the motherboard its not easy to say what happens maybe there are some loose contacts
I think its better to contact a notebook technician because he has more experience as a common notebook user like me and you!

Controlling the sound volume of my swf

I am trying to reduce the sound volume of my swf in general. I implemented the code below, but I get this error message: Line 30 1151: A conflict exists with definition in namespace internal.

Try this version that I put together. I attached the sound playing to the onClick function at the bottom. This may not be the correct place, you can move the code to any function that you like. The sound will not play from the variable declaration section of the class, it really needs to be in a function.

The sound volume in the videoproject is too low

Hallo,
In Adobe Premiere Elements I3 made several projects. I used the tool Normalisation for the audio in a clip. Untill now this was functioning well. But at the present time I have a problem. Likely I have made a mistake with one of the settings. But I don't know which mistake.
After the Normalisation of the sound in the clip the graphic rendition in the picture in the track Comment is as it should be.
But the real sound is now too low. In the sound mixer I can see that the level of the sound doesn't come higher than -12 where it should actually be 0.
I must have changed an overall setting somewhere with the result that the sound actually is too low.
My question is: how can I restore the old situation where the sound volume was correct?
Thank you in advance.
Greetings,

My first impression of what you describe is this...
1. If you were making audio adjustments with Clip Gain dialog, what happens if you bring up
the Clip Gain dialog and change the value there from -12 to 0.0 dB for the audio clips whose values
have gone from 0 to -12?
More later.

How to adjust the sound volume in small increments in Mac OS 10.7 (Lion)?

I use a Macbook that has dedicated sound volume buttons (F11 and F12).
In Mac OS 10.6 I was able to adjust the sound volume in smaller increments (1/4th of a square) by pressing SHIFT + OPTION + VOLUME UP/DOWN.
This stopped working after the update to 10.7. Any ideas?

Unfortunately they did away with this feature in Lion. Hard to understand why.
You can with something like AudioHijackPro manage your System sound to a much higher degree. A very versatile piece of software.

Hello Kishore1022,
It sounds like you have a new album downloaded and the tracks all have a very low volume. I recommend checking to see if Sound Check is enabled in the Music settings.

Change the sound volume increment?

Is there a way to change how much the Apple remote and keyboard increments/decrements the system sound volume?
Let me explain... I have the Bose Companion 5 sound system. It comes with a little desktop controller to adjust and mute the volume. The desktop volume controller is nice and all, but it's completely independent from the Mac OS volume controls. I could crank the Bose control all the way up, but doing so makes it such that even the lowest Mac OS volume setting is still louder than I'd like (easily audible through the walls), and quiet white noise is heard even if the Mac is muted. Setting the Bose volume to something in the middle or lower limits my volume flexibility when listening to music and I come across that occasional song that I want cranked louder. I know I'm whining, but hear me out.
I recently bought a new desk and made an interesting discovery while setting everything back up. Somehow I had forgotten to connect the Bose volume controller. When I grabbed the Apple remote to adjust the system volume, it seemed to directly adjust the volume on the Bose system (this setup can get VERY loud this way), and no white noise when the Mac is muted. I love the idea of leaving it like this, but even the first notch above mute (via keyboard or remote) is pretty loud. Finite control is possible from the volume preferences panel, but who wants to open that every time to change the volume?

I don't know if these two AppleScripts will help you or not but give them a try.
Place them in your Applications folder or your AppleScript folder (within your Applications folder), then drag them into your Dock.
They are background scripts so you will not see them launch in the Finder.
Have iTunes playing or some other app playing when you test them.

Is there a way to adjust the sounds' volume withou...

I have an annoying problem with my Skype:
The volume of the other person is perfectly fine, but the volume of the sounds for calls is just too high. Like hurting my ears too high.
Is there a way to adjust these sounds without changing the other person's volume?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Not as far as I know. I have self, for the same reason set the Volume of Skype to about 40% and I don't see any effect on the call volume. Only ringing and notification sounds are affected.

Changing the Sound Volume when the comuter starts up

Whenever I start or restart my computer the start up sound is blasting out of the speakers. Does anyone know how I can lower the volume so I'm not blasting out my officemates every time I start up the computer. Any suggestions are appreciated, Thanks

Hi savannahrain and welcome to Apple discussions.
Try StartupSound PrefPane.
Goodluck,

I cannot change the sound volume. Why?

My iPod Touch 4G 16GB will not let me change the volume sometimes .... When i double tap the home button and swipe left twice where i can change the volume there is no dot ehich i can drag around to increase or decrease the volume.

Try listening the other way (speaker or headphones)
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.

Help!!! When ever i open my itunes store the sound/volume goes crazy Please help

my itunes has been stuffing up ever since i updated it.
i can acsess and play my music fine but when i open the store it goes crazy and doesn't open???

Update your safari. Install this: http://support.apple.com/kb/dl1569
The itunes store relies on certain components of safari, regardless of if you use it or not.

Loving the iOS 5 update, but the sound/volume for texts/iMessage or email seems low now. Any help please.

Does anyone else having this problem?

Hello everyone.
I have an iphone 3GS and updated it to the IOS 5 update. It was OK for about 2 weeks then it started to reboot itself every hour or so. The problem has got worse and now it reboots itself every 2-3 mins(I see this in the 'diagnostic and usage' in the settings, I've set it to send the reports to Apple).
The problem has got so bad now that i cannot make calls or receive texts, so I've had to switch back to my trusty Nokia.
I did find that if I left the SIM card locked the phone did not reboot at all. I have asked Vodafone for a new SIM to see if it helps(my SIM card is probably 8-10 years old, old SIM card technology in a newish phone theory) and I will report back when it arrives and I've tried it.
Has anyone else had this issue? A guy I work with has had the same problem after updating to IOS 5 so I'm wondering if it is a IOS 5 problem. I did the update to IOS 5.0.1 to see if that helped but it didn't.
Hopefully Apple will pick up on this and help with our frustration.
Having looked through the forums here and elsewhere I will try a new phone restore on it to see if that helps and report back.
Thanks for any help.
Paul.
I had the same odd behavior about two weeks after I updated to iOS 5.0 as well.
Updates to 5.0.1 and virgin restores still didn't help. In fact 5.0.1 seemed to make the signal loss and battery drain worse.
Just try this...

Menu Bar - Sound Volume icon does not move with the press of the F key

So I normally press the F keys to control the Sound Volume, right, just like everyone else does -
but the Sound Volume icon in the Menu Bar at the top right does not respond to the F key at all!
Isn't it supposed to react simultaneous with the press of the F key?
I have to actually use my mouse click to make that volume go up and down.
The actual volume does work with the F key, it goes up and down.
But to make the 2 work in sync, I have to point the mouse to the one at the Menu Bar, fiddle with it, and then I can use the F key and both work together at the same time.
If I haven't touched the Menu Bar one for a while and I only use the F key, the Menu Bar one doesn't move at all.
It's weird. Any ideas?

I see what Al is seeing. Normally I just use one method or the other. The Volume Adjustment keys provide visual feedback, so it's unnecessary to check the menu extra, i.e. the Volume menu bar icon, to see the same feedback.
The slight delay in the reaction of the Volume menu extra, when open and while adjusting the volume with the Volume keys is normal.
They're independent methods for adjusting the Volume setting. The Volume menu extra takes a moment to refresh when the slider is displayed and you're changing the setting via the Volume keys.
Good luck!

Trying to increase the sound of recorded screen captures

Hi. I'm making screen capture movies with Snapz PRo 2 and they are being saved as QT movies on my desktop. When I open them in QT and try to increase the sound volume, the setting don't stick if I try to raise the volume over 0db. I read somewhere that QT won't let you save volume over 0db, is that true?
If so, does anyone know how I can increase the gain on the movies without having to load them into Final Cut or iMovie? Is there some program that will let me just edit the sound of a QT movie?
Thanks in advance.
Antonio

Hey, thanks for the tips. But... I don't think I'm making myself clear here.
I don't want to spend ANY time in post with these tutorial screencasts that I'm making. If I did, I'd just whip out my Sennheiser and my mixer and take the whole shebang into FCP and cut it and sweeten audio there.
What I'm doing is using Snapz to capture screen actions that I'm recording as tutorials for my students. I'm using either a Blue Snowball USB mic or my Logitech 250 USB headset with mic to record my voice as I demo apps on the Mac. Snapz is using the Apple animation codec to make the movies. But, what Snapz is not doing and cannot do is help me boost the audio a bit. If it did, then I'd have a finished movie right there. As it is, I have to wait a long time for Snapz to finalize the flick. What I don't want to do is load the film up in FCP (takes time) and then export it (also takes time) and be done. I want to package these things up fast. All I need to do is boost the audio a little and everything would be great. If Quicktime Pro allowed me to do that, that would be great because it would not have to re-encode the movie again.
Maybe there is no way to do what I'm asking without doing it in FCP. If that's the case then that's what I'll do.
THe whole point of this is that I want to keep it as simple and as past as possible because I am not making any money doing this (but I am teaching for money). I offer it to my students as a value added addition to their classes.
Thanks,
Antonio
