When the iMac starts the apple chime does not sound

Prior to updating to Lion OS the Apple Logo would come up on the screen but the Apple starting sound or chime for a lack of a better word no longer sounds. After the upgrade to Lion it still does not make the sound. And the speakers are on as errors or other sounds can be heard.
Just curious...

I have the same problem here! The remote doesn't work on my EarPods, and it also doesn't work with a pair of Sony earbuds that I have. I'm hoping there's a fix for this, and that we won't have to wait until the next update... I actually use my remote a lot, so this is a really annoying bug.

  • HT1414 My ipad only showes the apple it does not start up

    When I turn on my ipad all i get is the apple, it does not turn on completely.

    Did you try rebooting the iPad?
    Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

    How do I compress a file on a Mac.  I do not see and option to compress a file when I right click on it and the Apple help does not provide and accurate answer

    Select the file with one click, then go to File in the menu bar and select Compress...
    By the way Niel's post says control - click. This means click with the control key held down. It produces the same result as going to File in the menu bar and selecting Compress...

  • My Mac has FaceTime 2.0 and it is terrible, I tried to download a new copy but the apple store does not have 2.0 Also I chat was the way I communicated before I upgraded. What happened?

    I upgraded to Lion X and have been having problems with FaceTime my version is 2.0 and the Apple store does not have this version, what happened to the changes, I used to use IChat and it was great, this is no longer available. Any hints for video conferencing or for what is going on.

    You can video conference with the iChat component of Messages. Not sure if that's possible with Facetime. I have been using Facetime for video chat without any problems. Quality is no different than with iChat.

  • After having updated the software on my apple tv, i cannot set up home sharing on it (let alone itunes!) simply, the apple tv does not recognise my apple id and password anymore

    i have updated the apple tv software (on one apple tv, ihave 2) after having used for 2 years withou any problem.
    i tried to log in again to watch movies already purchased but i cannot. the itunes store is not available and the home sharing does not recognise my id and password. on my pc i have alsoupdate to the latest software my itunes.
    the second apple tv where i am still resisting tomupdate the software works very well as always.
    help!?

    Hi Everyone,
    hope this message finds you all in time. The recent Apple TV update 5.1 is terrible. Apple knows it is which is why (thankfully for some relentless user -I have no idea who but I believe it was under threat) they have allowed to sign 5.0.2 again which means you can downgrade your Apple TV 2 and 3 to a 5.0.2 version via iTunes. Who knows how long they will keep the window open but I have downgraded my ATV early this morning. I couldn't post this earlier because I was out all day but I am doing it now.
    Here's how to do it:
    1) Connect your ATV to your computer via a Mini USB (not included with ATV but included with many other electronic devices) - in order for your ATV to appear in iTunes you must FIRST plug the USB cable to your computer and ATV and only THEN plug the power cable.
    2) Download your ipsw restore file from Apple.
    5.0.2 (ATV 2): AppleTV2,1_5.0.2_9B830_Restore.ipsw
    5.0.2 (ATV 3): AppleTV3,1_5.0.2_9B830_Restore.ipsw
    3) In iTunes select yout ATV, hold SHIFT and click on Restore
    4) Find and choose the downloaded IPSW file in the Open Dialog Box and hit Next
    5) As long as Apple still signs that version the Restore process will begin and will take a few minutes to complete.
    Enjoy!

  • How to upgrade to aperture 3.5 when the app store does not show the update. I did buy aperture 3 on DVD not thru the app store. what to do?

    I can not open aperture databases anymore as osx10.9 keeps telling me i have opened it with a newer version, which i have not but i understand from other discussions that thru the upgrade of iphoto osx automatically thinks that you have opened with aperture 3.5. the app store does not show me the update as i have not purchased the program thru the app store but on dvd. what to do?

    If you are running MacOS X 10.9 and Aperture is installed in your Applications folder and simply called Aperture, not Apertre 3 or something, the AppStore should be showing you the update.
    Have you already updated to Aperture 3.4.5 from the Support page  Aperture 3.4.5?
    Try to update manually to 3.4.5 and then reboot and sign again into the AppStore with your AppleID and look at the Update page.
    For some forum members it helped to set the main system language to English U.S. to make the update finally show.

  • My daughters ipone has turned up  having been sold to a pone shop over ayear or more later after it was stolen, the shop keeper contacted me as when he put the pone on it tells him to call me , but the apple id does not match why is this !!

    my daughters pone was stolen over a year ago an it has turned up in a pone shop in a town a few miles from us, the pone was taken to the shop and sold cheaply as the person was questioned as it said to call the number on it as this was set up before it was stolen, but had been switched off and was never traced. the shop owner phoned her to say that her ipone had been sold to him, we have ben to the shop and sure its the same pone and yes it has her number to call but the apple id is wrong so she can not unlock the pone, how can this be !! he wants her to pay him to buy the pone back from him, but the pone was hers originally , what should we donhelp

    If you made a report with local law enforcement regarding the theft, report to the police that you have located the device. With the report, law enforcement will be able to recover the device from the pawn shop without incurring any cost. It is stolen property and the dealer has no choice but return it. Then law enforcement will deal with you.

  • After setting up email account the apple imap does not respond.

    Able to get on the internet with no problem but when I try to set up an email account no matter whether yahoo or gmail I get this message. "imap.apple.mail.yahoo.com is not responding. Check your network connection and that you entered the correct information in the incoming mail server field. I have done this numerous times with no success.  I deleted all email accounts since they did not work and still have had no success.  The problem has to be with this ipad.  The model number is MB293LL, Serial # V50445YCZ39 VERSION: 3.2.2(7B500).  All pertinent information has been put in properly but the unit still is unable to send or receive any email.  I am wondering if I should reset the entire unit back to factory specs etc.  The form below this asked for an operating system and I put Vista in due to the fact that this system was given to me by someone that I know had Windows Vista on their home computer.  If I can change it I would. I just do not know how at present that is why I am coming to this community.  Thanks for any help.

    I am trying to set up a basic email account through the settings email,contacts etc button on the ipad.  When the list of servers comes up I pick yahoo and fill in the pertinent info as far as the correct email address and password. When I try to save it the ipad is the thing that comes up with this message "imap.apple.mail.yahoo.com" is not responding.  I have no idea where or how it comes up with this but that is what appears when I try to save the account information it request.  The info that JimHdk sent does not work either.  Thanks for any help.

  • HT4352 I have home sharing turned on on my computer but the Apple TV does not recognize it even though the same Appleid and password is used. Does anyone have this issue and, if so, how did you resolve it?

    Issue with Apple TV not recognizing the home sharing option in itunes. Calls for paswrod but even when added it still does not recognize it. iTunes indicates that the home sharing optionis on but this is apparently not seen by Appletv. How can this be resolved?

    Hi Augstiner57, I have the same problem.  Did you figure it out?  Mine seems to have happened after I updated Apple TV. Now it doesn't recognize my Home Sharing even though on my MacBook is it turned on.
    I am running an old OS  though (Leopard) so  I am wondering if I need to upgrade.

  • My ipod touch is flashing white on and off, I hold the buttons down, and the screen goes black- but the apple logo does not come on. What do I do?

    So I have had this problem before, and know that you hold down the top Power button and the Home button, at the same time, for roughly 10 seconds, or until the apple logo comes on.
    The problem is, when I press the buttons and the screen goes black, like it's supposed to before the logo pops up, the apple logo isn't appearing.
    I was wondering if that's because my I pod touch was drained when I plugged it in to charge, and I tried to turn it on when it was still charging?
    What can I do?

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try on another computer          
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • Why the Apple products does not work with Adobe flash player?

    Could be better if the Apple products work with Adobe Flash Player, I know that Steve does not like to work with them, but I think will be necessary soon.

    From Adobe's own site:
    *** NOTE: FLASH PLAYER IS NO LONGER BEING UPDATED FOR NEW DEVICE CONFIGURATIONS. FLASH PLAYER WILL NOT BE SUPPORTED ON ANY ANDROID VERSION BEYOND ANDROID 4.0.x ***
    While Flash Player remains on Google Play for installation on Android devices that are certified by the manufacturer, installing Flash Player on an uncertified device may result in unexpected behavior and can potentially destabilize your device. A list of certified devices can be found at http://www.adobe.com/go/certifieddevices. Flash Player WILL NOT be supported on any device shipped with or upgraded to an Android version beyond Android 4.0.x
    Further comments on what is the case on Android devices is irrelevant. Adobe has dropped further development of Flash for mobile devices and Apple has made no indications that they have any plans to do so themselves, so it is highly unlikely that there will ever be a native Flash player for any iOS device.
    'nuff said on the matter. Regards.
