Macbook pro - no audio - no option for internal speakers in sound prefs.
No audio will play from my 2011 macbook pro. It is fully updated. In sound preferences, there is no 'internal speakers' option to select in output, and no 'internal microphone' in input. No red light in headphone jack. Any solutions?

Red light inside headphone jack. no option for internal speakers.
what do i need to do?
A toothpick.
Get a toothpick and wiggle it around in the audio out port until you 'flip' the switch for optical/digital out. The red light should go off and you should be able to select your internal speakers again for output.
Seriously. It's worked for hundreds of people.

My Iphone 4S is all the time in dock connector mode. This give me no sound at all then ringtones. If I sett Music to use AirPlay, I get internal speaker to work. Then I have sound when I get SMS and other "biips". Else My 4S is quiet. I can lisen to music in my headphones and it "biips" there.
Hello Besibert
This is a hardware issue.
To resolve this issue you need to try some unorthodox methods to get some results. Try to insert the headset back into the port and "wiggle" it while pulling it out and then inserting it back in. Try this a couple of times and see if this helps.
The reason for this is because there's a "lever" or spring mechanism that got stuck. No hard reset or soft reset will fix this (I speak from experience). -

HT2494 2012 MacBook Pro - no sound from internal speakers, red light in headphone port
Mid 2012 MacBook Pro 15".
I normally use external speakers plugged into headphone jack.
The other day I unplugged the external speakers and when I re-booted my Mac, I got the start up sound
but I have no sound coming from my internal speakers. In System preferences sound output I see no entry for internal speakers.
I also notice a red light shining in the headphone jack port. I see on youtube that this problem is rather widespread.
Some suggest using a paper clip to try to turn the light out, but I am not doing that.
I have Lion installed, tried using the MIDI-app to reconfigure the speakers, but I only get sound if the headphones are plugged in.
Is this a software or hardware problem?
I have a genius bar appointment today at my local Apple retail store, and my mac is still on warranty but this
is troubling that you spend $2300 for a laptop and after a bit of regular use the internal speakers no longer work.
Any ideas?
thanks.I agree Nick - it is a concern especially on such a basic function (sound) - Linc is right, the issue is microswitch, sounds like a bad design or a huge batch of sub quality switches, checking the forums this issue is common on MBP's.
Judging by the date and lack of further activity I assume you managed to get yours fixed at the genius bar ?
I finally fixed mine myself but posting reply for others who have same issue as this - however buyer beware folks, try this at your own risk !!!
The fix won't be liked by Apple Support, the genius bar, or the repair shops but it worked for me after over 12 months of using headphones / external speakers - WHAT A PIA !
Method -
Held Macbookpro on it's side with screen open and headphone/ audio port facing toward ground.
Took WD40 can with straw dispenser and placed straw inside audio port - sprayed 3 or 4 one second burst of WD40 into port.
Held MBP that way for 30 seconds giving MBP a shake to drain WD40 out
(I performed this whole excercise outside where the WD40 could drain out without an issue ;-)
I then took an old set of headphones and re-inserted / removed them from the audio port approx 20 times in and out with music playing on the MBP - intially when inserted music will only come from headphones then eventually MBP internal speakers start working !
I've tried everything else including the cocktail stick and bent pin inserted inside the port to try and free micro switch - nothing worked it was stuck fast.
As stated, can't endorse this for anybody else - you do so at your own risk - just stating this is what I did to get mine working again ! -
I know there is an internal mic but i need to switch the head phone to mic. but in system preference then sound folder it does not give me the option to make the mic an imput. but when i goto about this computer it says it is compatable how do i make this happen?
Welcome to Apple Support Communities
You have a MacBook, so your Mac hasn't got a HDMI port and you are using a Mini DisplayPort to HDMI adapter.
There are some Macs which do not support sound over HDMI, and it seems that your MacBook does not support it. Read > About Mini DisplayPort to HDMI adapters -
I would like to know If I will be able to record(using quick time player) both audio and video on my mac with head phones connected
My Mac - OSX Version 10.9.3 , Processor 1.8GHz Intel core i5, Memory 4GB 1600 Mhz DDR3Hi Sansony,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
I understand you would like to record audio from the headphones you connected to your computer. When recording audio with QuickTime Player, you can choose to use the built-in microphone, an external microphone you’ve connected, or a microphone from a connected Apple display. Please use the following article as a reference.
Mac Basics: QuickTime Player creates, plays, edits, and shares video and audio files
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4024
Clicking the triangle icon gives you additional options, such as letting you choose whether to use the built-in microphone on your Mac, an external microphone you've connected to your Mac, a microphone from a connected Apple display, or the option to simply use no microphone at all. The triangle also allows you to adjust the finished quality of your screen recording, select whether or not your mouse clicks are shown during the recording (the pointer is highlighted when you click), and to select what location (on your Mac) to save your screen recording when finished.
Have a great day,

head phone not working after i update to yosemite , I tried with different headphones but it didn't work. I am able to control the volume with the head phone buttons.
Take each of the following steps that you haven't already tried.
1. 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.
2. From the menu bar, select
▹ System Preferences ▹ Sound ▹ Output
Check the settings. The internal speakers should be selected as the output device, the Mute box should not be checked, and the volume slider should be at least halfway to the right.
3. Boot in safe mode. It will take much longer than usual. You don't have to log in; just reboot as usual when the login screen appears. Note: If FileVault is enabled under OS X 10.7 or later, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t boot in safe mode.
4. Reset the NVRAM.
5. Reset the SMC.
6. Reinstall OS X after backing up all data as a precaution. You won't need your backup unless something goes wrong.
7. Make a "Genius" appointment at an Apple Store.
Back up all data on the internal drive(s) before you hand over your computer to anyone. If privacy is a concern, erase the data partition(s) with the option to write zeros* (do this only if you have at least two complete, independent backups, and you know how to restore to bare metal from any of them.) Don’t erase the recovery partition, if present.
*An SSD doesn't need to be zeroed. -
The front headphone jack on my new mac pro desktop computer does not transmit sound when connecting a headphone or ear buds. The sound still comes from the speakers and is not redirected to the head phone. The port has never worked. Any solutions?
okay, try option-clicking on the speaker icon on the top of your screen. That should bring up a list of sound output options. including headphone. You could try messing around with Audio MIDI. It may be possible that the thing is still stuck inside the headphone jack. Careful use of a toothpick may get it unstuck. I dunno, I've never had a problem with the headphone jack. If all else fails, call Apple or take 'er in for an appointment

When I play video clips from websites like Prescreen the sound is loud enough to hear w/out headphones. When I play my own professionally mastered video I have to wear head phones to hear them loud enough. Is there a trick in Compressor or other software to make my overall sound loud enough?
The Nokia 3720 classic is a IP54 level water,
Not even close to good enough, LCD screen will crack, water will go in through the jack/charger ports..
The phone i describe has no external ports just 4-5 little pins which can't let water in or out of the device, the docking station will connect via these 4 - 5 pins for data transfer and recharging...., IPX8 standard, all the electronics are epxoyed with a glue to stop real bad shocks from drops and bangs, along with a silicon case and all the other preventative meausres means this little phone is going to outlive you.
in combination with heart rate external bluetooth connection, really what more could you want... only the Sonim comes close in terms of perfection but if it managed to pack all of above, then it would be simply wow... I don't think there's enough people who work for nokia who actually go camping, backpacking, hiking, i'm pretty sure that if i told them one day
on a holiday you might drop your phone into the swimming pool, ok fine it's a mistake but damn, there goes your $$$$ N7 or N900 or even a HTC or Iphone.... not this, you'd yell to the first person you see in the pool, hey mate can i have my phone back, don't worry about the water damage, i'll get it back on insurance after a small lie stopping the person from running off with it (in fear of the now useless mobile phoned killed by water, making an attempt to steal be useless)
The person gets their phone back and carries on about his day, it drops out of your pocket, how many times you ran over it because you happened to leave it behind the back tire. oh no i ran over my phone, the tough casing and the epoxy keeping it nice and safe, except for superficial damage cosmetic, the screen and phone should be working still able to make that call or send out GPS info....
Sorry nothing comes close by any company (except Sonim) in terms of what they can do... maybe even a portable charger turn it to recharge like on LED dynamos. nah maybe not. -
Xperia Z3v Head Phone Jack Cover
Just curious if any one of you had dipped your Xperia Z3v in water....On sonymobile.com it says that make sure all the ports are closed, but the phone did not come with a head phone jack cover. Does that mean it is already waterproof? I examined all the photos avaiable on sonymobile.com and none of the pictures showing the phone under water had the head phone jack covered. Any feed back (from Sony) would be appreciated! Thanks for reading
the 3.5mm jack its waterproof, it doesn't need a cover/flap

i have an sg300-28 running the latest firmware, and would like some insight on port-channel options. below are the port configs i have for a LAG to my router. i am currently using 802.3ad with LACP. my router is a linux machine pulling duty as a basic (no dynamic routing) router, firewall and internet gateway. the bonding options on the routers side explained at
http://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/Fedora/16/html/System_Administrators_Guide/sec-Using_Channel_Bonding.html. the mode is 4 or 802.3ad and the xmit_hash_policy is 2 or layer2+3. i also have 2 servers setup in a similar fashion with 2 interfaces in a LAG.
when i run a bandwidth test, iperf, between the two servers, i only get 900+ mbps which indicates that the GB ports are running fine. this also indicates to me that the traffic is not being "striped" across the port-channeled interfaces, thereby giving me the aggregated bandwidth of all interfaces in the LAG. i have found no options to use the balance-xor mode to create port-channels, which as i understand it, would aggregate the total bandwidth of all interfaces in the LAG. is the sg300 capable of creating a LAG that will combine the throughput of all the members of the LAG? for example, create a 2 GB pipe when 2 interfaces are port-channeled? is the balance-xor mode what would do this (regardless of the sg300's ability to do this)

You said "i only get 900+ mbps which indicates that the GB ports are running fine. this also indicates to me that the traffic is not being "striped" across the port-channeled interfaces, thereby giving me the aggregated bandwidth of all interfaces in the LAG. i have found no options to use the balance-xor mode to create port-channels, which as i understand it, would aggregate the total bandwidth of all interfaces in the LAG."
As the Admin guide says on page 130, http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/switches/lan/csbms/sf30x_sg30x/administration_guide/78-19308-01.pdf
Load Balancing
Traffic forwarded to a LAG is load-balanced across the active member ports, thus achieving an effective bandwidth close to the aggregate bandwidth of all the active member ports of the LAG.
Traffic load balancing over the active member ports of a LAG is managed by a hash-based distribution function that distributes Unicast and Multicast traffic based on Layer 2 or Layer 3 packet header information.
The switch supports two modes of load balancing:
By MAC Addresses—Based on the destination and source MAC addresses of all packets.
By IP and MAC Addresses—Based on the destination and source IP addresses for IP packets, and destination and source MAC addresses for
non-IP packets.
So, an IP host running running IPERF maybe checking unicast throughput between the two IP hosts. There will be a Source and Desination IP address in that test. The switch will direct the traffic over one of the LAG port members . It wont Round robin the unicast traffic over multiple LAG ports, if the Source and Desination IP address of the traffic is the same. .
If the PC running IPerf, had another concurrent IPerf session to another or different IP host, the hash algorithm on the switch may direct that stream , maybe, over a different physical LAG interface.
So your comment about achieving 900+mbps sounds normal Yes LAG spreads the load, the benefit comes when lots of hosts on both sides of the switches.
You hay find with just two hosts on either side of a LAG, that the switch may run the traffic between two hosts over just one member of the LAG group.

I have a ipod touch and i can only get a very lil bit of sound and its scrachy souding out of my head phones... sounds good if you dont use head phones??? Can anybody help??
Your MacBook Pro doesn't have HDMI output... it's DVI. For sound, you will need to use the headphone out/optical digital audio out port to the TV/stereo. As far as video goes, I'm confused as to what cable you're using but at one point you're converting DVI to HDMI.

I can only hear sound from one side of the head phone
I've plug in my bass guitar through a cord and a converter in the line in port on my PC. Then checked 'listen to this device' (head phone) which is connected properly as it worked perfectly when I play any sound in ma PC. But when I play my guitar, I can
only hear it from one side of the head phone. How to fix it!?Is that compatible to give output from both sides (R + L) ? Can you check same thing on other system ?
