Up grade now no sound on my mac book pro

I recently upgraded to mountain lion on my mac book pro 2009 and now I have no sound.  Not sure how to fix it.  The sound symbol is greyed out.  When I select the increase sound button it has a international no symbol.  My note book specks are listed below.  I'm not sure if my computer meets the requirements of Montain Lion.
Hardware Overview:
  Model Name:          MacBook Pro
  Model Identifier:          MacBookPro5,3
  Processor Name:          Intel Core 2 Duo
  Processor Speed:          3.06 GHz
  Number of Processors:          1
  Total Number of Cores:          2
  L2 Cache:          6 MB
  Memory:          4 GB
  Bus Speed:          1.07 GHz
  Boot ROM Version:          MBP53.00AC.B03
  SMC Version (system):          1.48f2
  Serial Number (system):          W894900FAY8
  Hardware UUID:          3523E80F-4FCA-5937-A329-9E230535C1F5
  Sudden Motion Sensor:
  State:          Enabled

I tried one last thing before I did this.  I simply shut down my laptop and then restarted and the sound now works.  My laptop was only rebooted after the install.  The reboot was the second cold start since I installed Mountain Lion. I usually only put it in the sleep mode.  I will continue to explore mountain lion and try these fixes if I have any more problems with the sound.  Thanks a lot for the help.

  • I bought the Dreamweaver CS5 for Windows a few years ago. Now I have also a Mac Book pro, where I have to Install the Dreamweaver CS5. I have made the Download for Mac, but I can't Install it. When I push the button, I got an error message.

    CS5 for Windows can only be installed on Windows operating system.
    You would need to purchase CS5 for Mac OS.
    Given that CS5 is now 4 versions back, it's unlikely you'll find a copy.
    You could get DW CC from the Creative Cloud which supports both Win/Mac platforms.

  • I don't have sound on my Mac Book Pro...

    I don't have sound on my Mac Book Pro... I've gone to my sound in the system prefrences and it's saying that internal and export sound are not even an option.

    Hi j,
    Have you tried a pair of ear phones yet? If not, try it.
    If no luck, gently pull them out and push them in a few times.
    If no luck, try the following:

  • Can i up grade my graphics card in my mac book pro

    I have had my mac book pro for about 2 years and I have up graded to moutain lion but, I cant get air play to work.
    Do i need a new graphics card?

    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
    AirPlay Mirroring has nothing to do with the graphic card. See > http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5404 AirPlay Mirroring requires an Early 2011 or newer MacBook Pro, and your MacBook Pro isn't compatible.
    However, instead of using AirPlay Mirroring, you can use a third-party application to mirror the MacBook Pro onto your Apple TV, as AirParrot > http://www.airparrot.com
    Apart from that, on all portable Macs, Mac minis and old iMacs (Early 2009 and older ones), the graphic card is soldered onto the logic board, so it can't be replaced without having to replace the logic board

  • No sound on my mac book pro and now itunes does not play or any of my video or music files...

    stuck in iraq1

    I did try the PRAM reset several times but it appeared not to be working as when I went into info about my Mac it showed me 0 under Audio built in. I reinstalled the software update Mac os x 10.6.8 V1.1 from the apple site 2 days ago. Everything that was using audio had seemed to crash or not work all audio files, skype and itunes. When I switched on my bluetooth it would pick up my friend's pc and it would show the volume control was un muted and still no sound, I turned off the bluetooth and it would go back to being muted. I gave up and this morning miraculously it started up with sound as soon as I switched it on and everything seems to be working.
    Thanks for the help and feed back

  • I'm not getting any sound on my Mac Book Pro.

    Can anyone suggest a fix for my sound problem?  I've tried everything that I know about.

    I've tried everything that I know about.
    And what it is, that you tried?
    Have you checked the "sound" System preferences? Is the output set to "internal Speakers"? And the volume turned up?
    Sometimes it will help to plug-in headphones or external speakers. This can solve problems with the contacts in the "line in" or headphone port. After connecting something to Line-in or headphone port and removing it again, sometimes the internal speakers will work again.

  • I don't have any sound on my Mac Book Pro.

    My volume bar appears as if my computer has full volume, but I can't hear anything, not even the "Bleep" the sound does when you push the sound buttons.

    Go step by step and test.
    1. System Preference > Sound > Output > Internal Speakers
        Highlight  Internal Speakers / Headphones
        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
        Choose the method for:
        "Resetting SMC on portables with a battery you should not remove on your own".
    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.

  • My sound is not working anymore on my mac book pro

    My sound on my mac book pro is not working at all anymore. I used it in the morning and it worked just fine and i came back at night and my sound was gone. I checked my output settings, raised the volume up all the way, made sure that i wasn't on mute, everything... Even when i plug my headphones in it doesnt work...
    Any ideas???

    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
        in and out of the port 5 or 6 times to flip the microswitch inside.
        Sound output may be stuck in the digital mode.

    Sorry, no. They are different version for different operating system, and will need to be purchased separately.

    2. Are JAMPACKS still compatable with the new GB?
    3. There is an UPDATE on the new GB on Appstore and once i click it, it goes to billing no detail is provided what this update is for so help!

    Do you still have your old Mac?
    How did you migrate from the old Mac to the new Mac? Did you transfer your old software and documents using Setup Assistant? Then your old GarageBand '11 version should have been migrated, and all your instruments.
    if you did  not migrate GarageBand '11, copy your old Instruments Library and Loop Library over from the old mac. Copy the following folders to a thumbsdrive and merge the missing dontents into the corresponding folders on your new mac:  (from the system library - the top level library folder on your Macintosh HD):
    /Library/Application Support/GarageBand/
    /Library/Audio/Apple Loops/
    And if you would like to continue to use GarageBand '11 for access to missing features, copy also /Applications/GarageBand over, but to a subfolder of Applications. I recommend, to install the old GarageBand as well. It can be used in parallel to GB 10.0, and will come in handy, if your old projects are having problems.
    1. DO i have to install JAMPACKS on my new Macbook pro?
    2. Are JAMPACKS still compatable with the new GB?
    The JamPacks are nice to have, a terrific collection of instruments and loops, but if you did not have them previously, that will not help with your missing instruments. You can instll them by buying Mainstage 3. They work well with GarageBand 10.0

  • TS3173 I have mac book pro and recently bought mountain lion online i then used bootcamp to upload windows 7 now i have no sound when i use windows what can i do to get sound.

    I have mac book pro and recently bought mountain lion online, i then used bootcamp to upload windows 7 now i have no sound when i use windows what can i do to get sound.

    Install the required Windows drivers: Boot Camp Support Software 5.0.5033. Download this link preferably from Windows. Otherwise, download onto a FAT formatted USB disk from which you can copy to your Windows system.

  • I have had my mac-book pro for almost a year, and have just got OSX Mavericks, and now the sound on my laptop is working in a sporadic way, can I change this at all on system preferences or will I have to get it repaired?

    On my mac-book pro the sound isnt working after I have installed OSX Mavericks, should I take it to be repaired, or can I do something on System Preferences?

    In addition to checking system preferences/sound/output and selecting built in if that does not work, make sure volume is up and mute not checked.
    You can try the following, Take a set of headphones and plug theim in and out several times (there is a micro switch that sometimes gets stuck)
    Go to applications>utilities>Audio MIDI set up, see if you can select built in there, make sure volume is uo mute not checked.
    Try a NVRAM/PRAM reset:
    Power off, power back on holding the following keys   OPTION + COMMAND + P + R
    Continue to hold these keys till you hear the start chime 2 times, then release,reboot
