Why can't I hear the sound on a wmv file someone sent me?

I can't hear the sound when playing a wmv file. Anyone know how to fix this?

I would use VLC - http://www.videolan.org/vlc/download-macosx.html.
Good luck,

Why can't attendees hear the sound that is embedded in my PowerPoint slide?

I have sound embedded in a PowerPoint presentation. I can hear the sound on my computer but the attendees or participants don't hear the sound. What do I need to do so that they will also hear the sound.

Audio on your computer is not transmitted via screen share. I suppose you could hold a mic near your computer speakers to broadcast the audio.
You can also try uploading the PPT(X) to the Share pod in Connect and see if the audio uploads with it, but it may not.

Why can I not hear the sound on my videos?

I cannot hear the sound on my videos after I convert them for iPod use on iTunes. I can hear the sound before I convert them - what gives?

Quicktime, Quicktime Pro and iTunes don't convert "muxed" ( muxed means multiplexed where the audio and video are stored on the same track) video files properly. It only plays the video and not the audio.
See:iPod plays video but not audio.
You need a 3rd party converter to convert the file with both audio and video.
Videora is one, but there are others.

Why can't I hear the sound files in Acrobat Reader on the iPad?

I have created on my main computer pdf files with embedded sound files. When I transfer them into the Adobe Reader on the iPad, the icons are there, but there is no sound. The only option Acrobat Pro XI has is to accept AIFF files. Whereas the guide for Adobe Reader on iPad says that it won't accept AIFF files, only some others, e.g., mp3.
Reuven

Thanx, Dave.
This is my Catch 22. Originally, my files were in mp3 format. But Acrobat Pro XI recognizes only AIFF files. So I had to convert my files to AIFF, and as such they work marvelously on my main computer (iMac). The issue at stake is, how can I convince Acrobat Pro XI to recognize and open mp3 files? Indeed, the promotion bla-bla says that Acrobat Pro XI can handle mp3 files, but I could find nowhere instructions how to do this. The pop-up menu in the sound tool window gives only show AIFF files. All the rest are dim.

HT1491 Why can I not hear the sound on a video I downloaded from iTunes on my ipad

I downloaded the new episode of Sons Of Anarchy and I can't hear it. It looks fine though. I bought the season pass and was able to watch and hear the other episodes.

There is no way to access videos directly from the lock screen.
What exactly is being attempted here?

Why can I not hear the person I am video chatting with? They can hear me.

Why can I not hear the person I am video chatting with? They can hear me...

Hi,
There can be several reasons.
1) They have their Mic Off.
In iChat > Video Menu the Microphone Enabled (or Audio Chat Enabled in Lion) needs to be ticked.
2) the System Preferences > Sound > Input tab Volume is not high enough ?
Slide it to the right (their end)
2a) the Mic selected here is not the one select in iChat > Preferences > Video section > Microphone drop down.
3) there is an issue with the speed differences in the internet services you both have.
If they are fast and sending lots of data and your end cannot buffer fast enough frame get dropped to smooth out video. There comes a point when the audio can no longer keep in sync and is dropped as well.
In iChat menu > Preferences > Video section > Bandwidth Limit set 500kbps at both ends
This also smooths out ISP variances.
4) after that it tends to be combos of things such as Processors involved, the Speed of those Processors and the speed or bandwidth available to the computers involved.

Why can't I hear the phone ring when I call somebody, but if I put the speaker on it works

Why can't I hear the phone ring when I call somebody, but if I put the speaker on I can hear the ringing?

Don't jump all the way to restoring just yet. Check to make sure there's nothing in the headphone jack, and nothing covering the microphones (including the noise cancelling microphone at the top next to the headset jack)
1. Restart the device. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
2. Reset the device. (Same article as above.)
3. Restore from backup. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1766 (If you don't have a backup, make one now, then skip to the next step.)
4. Restore as new device. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4137 For this step, do not re-download ANYTHING, and do not sign into your Apple ID.
Test the issue after each step. If the last one does not resolve the issue, it is likely a hardware problem.

Why can't I see the layers of cs4 .psd files passed to me in photoshop elements 11?

why can't I see the layers from cs4 .psd files passed to me in photoshop elements 11?

You should be able to see normal layers, but PSE doesn't understand layer groups/sets or comp layers. The inexpensive add-on elements+ from simplephotoshop.com will let you expand layer groups. (If you also have Premiere Elements installed you should be able to see layer groups in PSE without adding anything.)

Why can i not hear any sound on my apps?

New Iphone 4, i can hear clicks, my itunes works - but i cant hear any sound on my apps? Ive checked settings and audio, but no luck. Tried playing with the volume buttons too....
Anyone had this issue?

If you quit the app and restart it, the sound will return.
To truly quit an app :
Press the home button to leave the app.
Double click the home button, this will reveal your recent apps,
The last one you used will be on the left. Press and hold the app's icon
And a 'x' will appear at the corner of the icon. Press the x and the app
Will quit.
Click the home button again, then restart the app in question.
Your sound should now be working.
I don't know why the sound stops, this happens to me on all my
IOS devices, iPhone, iPad, iPod.
Hoping some future update fixes the problem, but until then my
Method works.

Why can't I hear the first note until it loops around?

Hello Everyone,
I have a littlr problem. I have quantized a drum pattern so that the kick drum is on every fourth of a bar. The problem is....I can't hear the first kick until it loops around. Any ideas as to why this is?
Many thanks,
JV

Look at the piano roll (or the event list) and make
sure that the first hit is on or just inside the
first beat of the measure. It might sound fine, but
if it's even a single tick in front of the first beat
of your sequence, then you won't hear it, since
playback starts at measure 1, beat 1, tick 1.
Most of the time when this problem occurs it is not because the note is behind the downbeat. And with note chase=on that shouldn't present a problem anyay.
And moving the beat one tick later than intended? If the tempo was right up there, say, 170 or something, maybe you wouldn't perceive that. But at slower tempos, a tick is a huge amount of time, especially for drums, and personally I wouldn't recommend changing the intended timing of your notes to suit the sequencer's inability to play things correctly on the downbeat, whatever the cause may be.
The easiest workaround for this (and it's not perfect, but still a workaround) is to start playback slightly before the downbeat.

Why can't I hear the person I'm calling???

Ok I know the subject line sounds like I'm a couple sandwiches short of a picnic. But honestly just a couple days ago my Blackberry phone rang, I go to answer the call and I can't hear the caller on the phone, but they can hear me. The only way I can have a conversation with anyone is by using my speaker. Does anyone have any suggestions as to why this happening and how to correct the problem???

I spent sometime with their on-line techs, they restored my phone to factory settings but the same problem was happening. Because I've still have a warranty on my phone, I was able to have it replaced.
If that happens to be your case, remember to back up or sync your phone with your computer. You'll loose all your information if not. Must be a batch of defective phones, we must be the lucky ones to have 2 of them huh?
Good luck!

Why can't I hear the talking sometimes on videos on my ipad

Sometimes I can't hear videos on my iPad. Does anybody else have this problem? My volume is up as far as it will go

try a hard reboot, by holding both power and home button for about 10 secs, until u see a medium sized apple logo. and check the sounds again.

Why can I not hear any sound?

I just installed Audition through CC and cannot hear any sound. I see the track and can see the levelmeters going nuts. I can hear sound via Control Panel and Windows sounds butno sound is coming through my speakers.
HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

If Audition's transport is running (which it sounds as though it is if the playhead is moving and the meters are going), then you appear to have your sound device assigned to it correctly - but for whatever reason, the input on your sound device isn't turned up (or even on). But for more help, you'd have to provide more system details - specifically what OS, and are we talking internal sound device here?

Why can't I hear the receiver of my call unless it's on speaker

Every time I make a call the receiver of my call picks up but I don't hear the dialing or anything on my end. The screen indicates that the call is in progress but there's dead air on my end. Only when I press speakerphone i can hear the person on the other end. The phone is only 3 weeks old.

Have you removed the plastic protective film that is on the iPhone when it was shipped?
