Why can't i record sound on video?

I was recording a video and when I went to listen to it there was no sound. Doesd anyone know why I can't record sound? Voice memo works though.

Hello, Bonnieandeddie.
Thank you for the question. I'm assuming you are not receiving any sound from third-party applications when playing video/audio content. If this is the case, the first thing I would check is if the side switch is set to silent as this can cause applications to be mute. Below I have included an article that covers adjusting the settings for the side switch. Also, make sure to close all applications in Multitasking and power cycle the device. Test the sound issue after processing these steps.

Why can't I import sound with video into iMovie from digital camera?

This is disturbing. I have a digital video camera that took great video + sound. I import into iMovie (using my DV cable that came with the camera) and get video but no sound.
Now, in the past the sound came in, but no longer. Any and all advise is requested. I have to make number videos of lectures starting Wednesday evening and have to be able to provide video with audio.
Thanks.

Try importing video shot with the camera's internal
microphone. If that doesn't work either, the mic is
not the problem.
I have no problem importing sound with video when using the internal video camera mic. No problem (other than sound quality issues with the speaker being 40 feet away from the camera's internal mic!
But I can play back the video made with the external mic in the camera and the sound is stunningly clear, crisp and loud. It's just a matter of getting it out of the camera into my Mac. I don't think it's the microphone; it must be the computer.
I just find it sad to believe that Apple's software is so limited--even in Final Cut Express HD.

Can't hear recorded sound during video playback

I take a lot of videos of my kids. I have noticed lately that the volume is low or muffled...you can't hear what is being said even if they are screaming 6 inches away. I thought maybe something had gotten into the microphone, etc. I recorded a voice memo and on playback i could hear what was recorded just fine at a normal level. Now once I tried to record a video of my kids talking, it played back so low that i can't hear anything and that is with the volume turned wide open. Not really sure what this issue could be but if the volume works fine on voice memo wouldn't it work the same on video playback?

Hi there AmPriSi,

Why Can I Only Get Sound On Video's

I have a 30gig iPod and have a few vid's I would like to watch on it while travelling. I converted a number of .avi formatted vid's to the .mp4 that ipod requires using winAVI but on trying to watch the then converted files on my PC or the iPod I only get the sound and no video(black screen). Any help would be appreciated.
n/a Windows XP Pro

There is a setting on the iPod under Videos -> Video Settings where you set the TV Out to ON/OFF/Ask. To watch on the iPod itself you should have it set for OFF or Ask. However, normally when it is set to ON, you still get a still screen on the iPod showing an icon of what is playing and text stating the name of the video. You don't normally get a black screen, which makes me think it might be something else.
But check the setting for TV Out all the same just to be sure. If it is ok, you might consider doing a reset and maybe even a restore to see if that works to fix the issue.

Why can't I record calls with the iPhone?

Hi,
Why can't I record calls with the iPhone? Every other mobile can! That's quite pitty ...!

Nonsense. There are many places where you are not allowed to take photos or video but those functions are included. Apple assumes no responsibility for them. Apple would not be responsible for managing the recordings on the phone either. It's most likely because Apple is located in California and in THAT particular state, both parties have to be informed of the recording. Most states do not require that. If Apple were located in another state (e.g. Alaska) there would be no restriction.
All the apps that record calls store those recordings in their servers and charge you a fee. It would be preferable to have the calls stored only on the phone so no one else could access them. The iPhone has the technological capability; we have just been restricted from having this functionality without paying a 3rd party.

Why can't I get live streaming video to play

Why can't I get live streaming video to play in Safari?

Sorry, but that is old info. On my 21" iMac, I'm running 10.7.1 and the version of Safari is 5.1. On my 24" iMac, I'm running 10.6.8 and Safari 5.1. I have even tried to get it to run in Firefox and still no results. I've been able to do live streaming previously, but today I'm hitting a road block. Could there be a setting or preference that I do not have set properly?

Why can't I record a new track?

Hi. I'm getting reacquainted with the new Garageband and laid down an acoustic mandolin track. Now I want to lay down an acoustic guitar track. But no matter where I click to activate the new acoustic track, the recording seems to go OVER the mandolin track (which I also can't hear). Why can't I record a new track where the guitar is indicated, and why can't I hear the mando as I do this? In the previous version of garageband this was straightforward. Thanks, david

We need to know more details.
Have you set the "Record enable" button in the track header? (Track > Track Header > Show Record enable). Which track is enabled for recording?
Have you set an input in the Smart Controls > Info pane for the track?
Also:
What kind of track did you use? An Audio Track? A Guitar Track?
Did you create the Guitar track by duplicating the Mandolin track? Then Crate a new track for your guitar from scratch. Dplicating tracks will link them.

My iphone 4 microphone won't record sound on video clips and doesn't work with Skype

This is the first time I have used the forum. My iphone4 microphone won't record sound on video clips, and won't work with Skype.

I have checked that I have the latest software. I have restarted phone. I am not sure how to perform the other things you mentioned , restore and reset as new... Would I lose any data by doing these? Thanks for the reply.

Why can't I watch QVC product videos on my Macbook pro

HELP why can't I watch QVC product videos on my Macbook pro ? I have the latest version of flash player to no avail ?

You have JavaScript enabled in all the browsers, yes? Have you tried launch the browsers in Safe Mode?

Not aware of a 12-inch Intel MBP. Anyway, could you possibly have an old version of flash player on your computer too. Look in the In the Internet Plug-ins folder to be sure you have only one flash player plugin. Path is HD/Library/Internet Plug-Ins/Flash Player.plugin
Also try searching your hard disk for flash.
Some other things to try are in this thread.

Recording Sound with video

I was previously able to record sound at the same time that I captured video, now I can't. I use the on board camera to capture video and an external mic. I need to know how to capture video and sound simultaneously.

Go to your Sound in the System Preferences and see if it is set up properly and you can test the microphone there. Then open up iChat prefernces, Audio/Video and see how that is set up and see if your audio works as you speak there. there have been some problems with that, and i think you fix it by resetting the PRAM or NVRAM

Can't play / record sound on Yosemite with external Firewire audio interface

I've got a Focusrite Saffire PRO 24 Firewire audio device. It worked perfectly until I upgraded to Yosemite. Even upgrading the driver to the last version (which suports Yosemite) I can't play sound in any way. Garageband crashes when I try to play my projects. Youtube videos on a browser stay paused on 00:00...
Saffire pro 24 is detected. I can select it on System preferences or garageband settings. On Saffire Mix Control 3.5 I can see how audio inputs are ok, the input signal is received and the output is ok. According to Saffire Mix Control everything's fine, but I can't play audio nor record sound.
If I switch to internal audio device everything works perfectly.
I did some research and every time I try to play sound these errors are shown on the Console.

It looks like there's some problem with Airplay? I didn't even know what Airplay was until now but after looking for some information I don't understand what has Airplay to do with playing sound over firewire.
I tried to disable Airplay on System Preferences > Display. I removed com.apple.airplay.plist from Library/Preferences but the results are the same
Please a need help with this. It's getting really frustrating. I'm trying to get help from Focusrite support as well.

In case another poor man like me run into this issue, here's how I solved it:
First of all, I removed Saffire Mix Control entirely following this guide:
http://global.focusrite.com/answerbase/how-do-i-remove-saffire-mixcontrol-from-m y-mac
In addition to that I did this:
1. Mac HD > Library > Preferences > Audio and in there please delete the two preference files
2. Finder > Go > Hold down the "Alt" key and click on the library folder. In there please trash the file "com.apple.audiomidisetup.plist" (in case it exists)
Then I emptied the trash, restarted system and reinstalled Saffire Mix Control 3.5
Problem solved.
