Why is the volume so low on my iMac when I'm using Safari?

Why is the volume so low on my iMac when I'm using Safari?
On both my 2008 MBP and my new 2014 iMac 27" when I listen to the audio portion of a streaming video or news story using Safari, I can hardly hear anything. I have to crank the volume all the way up just to barely hear what is being said. Any ideas on how to fix this?

please help!! I have the new 2014 iMac 27" as well, same thing happen to me. Dont know what to do!

  • Why is the volume so low on my iPad3

    What is the volume so low on my iPad3?

    They will never do any of the things you are requesting in my opinion. Apple doesn't care able what the customers want. They only care about what they think the customer wants. Look at iTunes. All music softwares are moving towards mp3tags except iTunes. It ***** because if I change my file name it no longer knows the file still exist. With mp3tags I would not care the name of the file. It would only care about the song title, artist, album..etc..It's still crap. Yet it's still being used by millions. I myself use it even though I hate it. It's all about numbers too with apple. How many device sold. Not how many happy customers. They will never allow SD cards since they would not be able to sell any device great than 16GB. No HDMI because they expect you to buy the $30 converter. No attachments because well they don't want to give access to the file system. No flash because html5 is the feature. App developers better get with it or apple would leave them behind :)...I think the multitasking is great.
    Since the first iPod came out people been complaining about the ability to sync with multiple iTunes. Years later it still hasn't change but apple stocks only grows higher LOL :)

  • Why is the volume so low, and won't get louder?

    I'm trying to get more volume from the software "swirling keyboard" instrument, but it is way too soft no matter how high I raise it's volume. In the edit window, I can change the pitch, but the velocity slider is grayed out, and won't let me raise it. What can I do?

    you can only get an answer to the question you ask. if the question is wrong (as in the other threads) you'll get the correct answer to that question ... which is wrong.
    trust me, read the Getting Started bit, don't skim it. read all of it. then ask those other questions (in new threads. don't jump in on someone else's threads which have nothing to do with what you are asking. you'll read info that has nothing to do with your issue and get confused.)
    so far the volume issue is solved, good luck with that.
    one down.

  • Why is the volume so low?

    I'm getting very low volume with iMovie HD 6 on my MacBook Pro. This problem only started recently. Other audio applications are fine, e.g., iDVD 7.0.3 plays the iMovie projects fine when I render them. I tried reinstalling iMovie, but that didn't help. Any ideas?

    Hi
    On my Mac - Audio levels can be affected in more than one place.
    • My Mac has one idea of it's own to from now and then decrease the System audio
    (Goto Apple menu - down to System Pref. and then select Audio - here see that
    Audio out is not set to low)
    • In iMovie each Audio tracks can be muted or amplified to 150%
    By Extracting Audio from a clip - Only thing that happens are that audio on the
    video clip is decreased to 0% and a copy is put on the track under at 100%
    By changing original video-clip to 150% and changing the new copy to 150% the sum.
    effect is an increase up to 300%.
    If You need more - just copy the new audio clip and paste it on the same track
    BUT ontop of first one and audio is increased even more - this can be repeated
    several times till You only get audio-distortion.
    alt. is to export out the audio as QT.aiff and in an Audio-editor (eg Audacity - free
    on the net) make amplification till Your liking.
    Yours Bengt W

  • Why is the volume of my phone so low in calls ?

    Why is the volume of my phone so low in calls ?

    Hey there Claudia,
    It sounds like the audio from the receiver is low when you are talking on the phone. I found this article for you to help troubleshoot this issue named:
    iPhone: Receiver and call audio quality issues
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts5196
    Receiver
    Follow these steps to resolve the issue:
    Increase the volume during the call.
    Make sure nothing is blocking the receiver. If you're using a protective case or display film, remove it and try again.
    Make sure nothing is plugged into the headphone jack or the dock connector.
    Check the receiver opening to see if it is clogged with debris. If necessary, clean it with a clean, small, dry, soft-bristled brush.
    Try another location with better signal. If the audio issue happens only when on a call, it could be due to the location.
    If the iPhone is paired with a Bluetooth headset or a car kit, try turning off Bluetooth on your device. Learn more about troubleshooting Bluetooth connections.
    Restart the iPhone.
    Make sure your device is up to date.
    If the issue is not resolved after restoring the iPhone software, contact Apple Support.
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    All the very best,
    Sterling

  • Why is the speakerphone so low in iPhone 3GS?

    Why is the speakerphone so low in iPhone 3GS? I have a maximum volume still it is not clear, Is there a way to increase it by any other method?

    I have the same issue. Low volume while using speakerphone function. At 1' (30cm) it measures at almost half the dB of a blackberry pearl speakerphone. Basically renders the speakerphone function unusable in anything but the quietest environments, and even then its questionable. There are several people in the office I work at that have a 3G and 3GS phones. 3G phones tend to be a bit better but still quiet compared to Motorola, Nokia, and Blackberries. The other 3GS phones were just as bad as mine. This is definitely not a user error.

  • I recently purchased a IP5 and found that the volume is lower by 20-30% compared to an IP 3/4s.........is possible? Apple has a solution?

    I recently purchased a IP5 and found that the volume is lower by 20-30% compared to an IP 3/4s.........is possible? Apple has a solution?

    Of course, this all began just about 2 weeks after my 3 years of AppleCare were up....
    Call Apple Customer Relations - 1-800-767-2275.  Ask politely & firmly that you want to be transferred to Customer Relations.  Tell them exactly what you stated in your post.  See what they can do for you.
    GOOD LUCK!

    Why is the screen in my liquify page blank/white?  I used to be able to see the picture I was working on but now it just shows a white page...  I have photoshop CS4.  How do I fix it?

    are you zoomed in too far to see that part of the layer that has content?  Does the layer you have selected definitely have content?  Try using Ctrl/Cmd 0 to zoom back to fit to screen.

    M3nth,
    Seems like we're all asking the same question
    As tst says... try not to use the one at the bottom.. it's ... hummm..
    It's behavior is unpredictable...
    As for the multiple listing I'll have to read Molly's response on this (I asked the same question is the "Xtreme thread")

    === EDIT ===
    Hi Molly,
    I read your answer on the bottom search engine..
    That's what I thought it did... but it didn't work for me.. I tried to use it to find some of my own posts within LV.. and it didn't find anything.
    The search was : serial
    I did this while reading a LV question of the subject.
    I shall experiment with the search engine again and report my findings.

  • Why is the check box for remember passwords grayed out? It used to work now it won't save them.

    Why is the check box for remember passwords grayed out? It used to work now it won't save them.

    It could be because you have Firefox set to not remember any history. Did you do that intentionally? It is set in the Options dialog:
    "3-bar" menu button (or Tools menu) > Options > Privacy
    Perhaps it would work if you choose "Use custom settings for history" and just turn off the specific things you want to turn off.
    Any luck?

  • The last week, Firefox will not load up the NEW YORK TIMES. So, I have had to use Safari to do so. If this continues, I'm going to quit using your browser, and begin using Safari all the time!

    The last week, Firefox will not load up the NEW YORK TIMES. So, I have had to use Safari to do so. If this continues, I'm going to quit using your browser, and begin using Safari all the time!

    There are several other similar posts in this forum with the answers. Your post appears third in my Google search today looking for a solution so I thought I'd add the solution here as well.
    It is obviously a bug in either (or both) Firefox and the NYT.
    The quickest solution is to simply go to the VIEW Menu in Firefox, then the ZOOM option and choose RESET.
    I use Mac and this happens in Firefox 3.6.10. It does not happen in other browsers like Safari, Chrome and Camino, and it did not occur before last week.
    It has also occurred in the iOS version of Safari on iPad. Not sure how to fix it there.
