Why my internal speaker of Macbook Air disappear

Why my internal speaker of Macbook Air disappear ? Now no sound come out and cannot adjust volume button which looks inactive.

did you put your Air to sleep with headphones attached, or closed the monitor with phones attached?
Do not sleep your Air (close the monitor with headphones attached) with headphones attached, this is known to affect some Air under Mavericks.
  * this occurrence is being looked into.
Much testing on my own and others as well show that, in some instances, this occurs in Mavericks.
If you choose you may contact Apple for an appt and diagnostics.
   However as said, refrain from having phones attached when you close the monitor to prevent this until it is resolved
Test this and re-verify
peace

    If you're running 10.7.5 as your profile indicates then that is the problem. You need Mountain Lion (10.8)

  • Why would one of my MacBook Airs be able to Screen Share from work with the iMac at home while the other MBA not...?

    I have 2 13-inch MacBook Airs. Also an iMac.
    I could ScreenShare  from both laptops at work with the iMac at home.
    Suddenly I can only do so from one MBA, which sees the iMac, no problem.
    But the other MBA cannot sse it any longer.
    The MBAs can see each other.
    All running the same OS and Apps.
    Only difference is...
    All have Multiple Apple IDs. ( 2 )
    But one MBA was recently set to use the 2nd Apple ID as the main Apple ID
    while the other MBA still uses the 1st, as does the iMac.
    What is happening...?

    That's the reason.
    Unless you're using VNC or Apple Remote Desktop (which I assume you are not) both the MacBook Air and the the iMac need to be using the same iCloud account.
    System Preferences>iCloud and make sure Back to My Mac is checked.

  • Why would my late 2012 MacBook Air suddenly tell me "This movie can be played only on displays that support HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection)" every time I try to play a film, or TV file?

    8GB late 2012 MacBook Air 512GB SSD with iTunes for Mac 12.1.0.50. Yosomite 10.10.2
    This happens on movies and TV titles that have happily run before.

    It is everything.
    Downloading again doesn't seem to work. I deleted all my films and then just re-downloaded Pixar's 5 minute short film Boundin', but the error message popped up as soon as I pressed play.
    The only thing I can think of is that last couple of times I ran Disk Utility a new error appeared that I haven't seen before. I have added a link to a screenshot of the Disk Utility report and it refers to "displaypolicyd should be should be 0, group is 244". It says it has been fixed, but the error still persists each time. This may be a red herring, but I can't help thinking that it is something to do with the problem.

  • Why does my (fully charged) macbook air crash every time I disconnect the charger?

    I have an almost brand new (within 6 months) macbook air. I keep it up to date. About a week ago this issue started: everytime I unplug my charger (which is green as the laptop is at 100% power) it crashes. I just did the SMC trick, but it has had no effect. Thoughts?

    2. Hold the Sleep/Wake and Home button down for about 10 seconds until you see the Apple Logo

  • TS1381 Numbers one through nine have randomly stopped working on my built in Keyboard. Does anyone know why? I have a MacBook Air.

    I was on a website and I had to type in a quantitiy in numbers when I realized that one through nine on my built in keyboards on my macbook stopped working. Shift doesn't change anything. I was switching back and forth between a word document and the website. When I turn on my keyboard viewer and press down on the number it does not become highlighted in the viewer. I'm clueless. Does anyone know what to do to get my numbers working again?

    I accidentally hit the numlock key  recently on my Pismo - this disables the number keys 1 2 3 4 5 & 6 is actually 'clear' and switches the
    7 8 9
    u i o

       m
    to
    7 8 9
    4 5 6
      1 2 3
       0
    Now I know that the MacBook Air and many more Macs have discontinued the 'numlock' KEY and therefore its function, BUT it got me to thinking, so I did a little Google research...
    It seems that quite a few Apps have functions associated with the 'numeric keypad' that can be achieved on laptops that have none by engaging the numlock.
    There was a workaround for MBAir (et al) - plug-in a USBkeyboard that DOES have numlock and voila! - the COMPUTER & OS function fine.
    I wonder what would happen if one were to plug in a USB keyboard > engage the numlock > press keys on the laptop keyboard? Both would work, I think.
    If so, what would happen if one were to leave the numlock engaged and UNPLUG the USB keyboard? Would the computer know to disengage the numlock function? If not, would it require replugging the USB to disengage? Would restarting reset it? If this function is happening in software (it is in fact as there are many Apps that can assign functions to keys and so does OS X in Tiger's Keyboard & Mouse PrefPane > Keyboard Shortcut TAB - tons of 'em!!)
    Could the  Original Problem here be in software? Some App running that hijacked the keyboard while active in the browser? He did say it went away!! and would look into it when returned from trip.

  • Why can't I shut macbook air when cinema display is connected?

    I just upgraded from an older MacBook Pro to a new MacBook Air.  I have an older Cinema Display that I want to use with the new MacBook Air.  I can get the Cinema Display to mirror what's on the macbook air screen, but I would like to be able to shut the MacBook Air and just use it like a desktop computer when its connected to the display (I have an apple bluetooth wireless keyboard and mouse).  Every time I shut the MacBook Air it shuts down and the Cinema Display goes black.  I had no problem getting it to work the way I wanted with my old MacBook Pro.  Any wisdom on this?   Thanks!

    Is the computer connected to AC power?

  • Why doesn't my 2015 macbook air connect to any bluetooth devices?

    I have recently bought a macbook air, having been out of the apply world for a number of years.  Stupid me, but I just presumed that my up to the minute, expensive  new laptop would connect to my non-mac, not brand new, but only a couple of year's old, bluetooth devices, the main device being my wireless speakers.  Sadly, this is not the case so I am unable to listen to any  music from my iTunes library through my speakers using my 'all singing, all dancing', amazing new macbook.  I am pretty annoyed by this to say the least.  I can't even find any meaningful advice or guidance to tell me if this is a honest to goodness fact, 'no, you can't connect it' or whether it is something that I could rectify via downloading something or even taking it to someone more techy.........so frustrated!!!!!  Please help!!

    Manxtree ~ Go to Apple's Knowledge Base HERE and, into the search bar, enter: Mac Bluetooth speakers and then click the Search button. In the resulting list of hits you should see one called "OS X Yosemite: Set up Bluetooth audio devices". Click on it.

  • Why when I connect my macbook air to time machine can't I use wifi any longer?

    Whenever I want to send files from my computer to the time machine, I can't use any internet features...
    If I look to which network my computer is logged on to, it says, Lara's Time Machine, which is not my wifi internet network.
    Thanks in advance!
    Lara

    It sounds like you have two different Wi-Fi networks, one created by a Time Capsule and the other by your router, and the Time Capsule is not connected to the Internet. You should either use the TC as your router, or else connect it to the router with an Ethernet cable (if possible) and set it up to extend a wireless network in AirPort Utility. Details are in the built-in help of that application.

  • Why do emails on my Macbook Air take longer than they do to appear on the server site?

    When I send or receive an email by clicking on the email icon at the bottom of the screen, it often takes longer to be sent or be received than if I go directly into the internet email site where it appears immediately.  At times, some people to whom I have sent emails do not receive them until hours later and conversely, incoming emails appear on the internet email site soon than they appear on my computer.  Can this be remedied?

    Do you use Navionics for marine a marine chart plotter?  I noticed that after I installed all their (lousy) software on my MPB, this Navservice app would start up each time I booted.   It took me a while, but I tracked it down to the "LaunchAgents" folder in my system library.   Siince I quit the app each and every time I boot my MBP, I decided I didn't need it so I simply renamed the file from "com.apple.NavService.plist" to "com.apple.NavService.plist.old" and rebooted my MBP.  Voila, no more NavService app running in the background. 
    As far as the purpose of this thing, the plist entry is launching the following app:
    /Applications/Navionics World/NavService.app/Contents/MacOS/NavService
    Take a look and see if you have the same thing. 
    The Navionics software for the Mac is obviously written by someone that doesnt' understand how Macs really work, and they scattered junk all over the place with their install routines.  In fact, if you update the software it will place redundant copies in redundant folders, etc. making it impossible to know which versions are the latest, etc.

  • I have an iPad 2, shall I get a macbook air 11'' ?

    Hello,
    I need some advice.
    I bought the 1st generation Macbook Air 13'' when it first came out in 2006 - It's been running GREAT until this year the internal battery died and started to expand inside, now causing an air bubble in the center of my keyboard and slowly starting to affect the motherboard (audio no longer working).. it's pretty much useless to me now and fixing it doesn't make any sense.
    I decided to buy the iPad2 when it came out last year and since then I haven't found the need to use my Macbook Air (I also have my work ThinkPad so whenever I need a laptop I use that one) - I've become so reliant on my iPad that I no longer need a laptop for personal use.
    However, I've been considering buying the new generation Macbook Air 11'' just because I love the computer - I'm not entirely able to justify this purchase but I absolutely want it. Can anyone who owns both tell me WHEN/WHY I'd need my macbook air and not my iPad? In what situations do you find yourself needing your laptop as opposed to your iPad?
    Also, I'm waiting for the iPhone 5 to come out in June or August and will hopefully buy it then.
    Any advise? thanks!

    I find the Air easier to work with if I need a keyboard if, for no other reason, that's more compact to carry around than the iPad and a keyboard, even one that is part of an iPad case.  I also often have to access data from one application when using another, and iOS is not at its best when having to do rapid application switching (Command-Tab switching is a lot faster than the double press home, scroll the icons at the bottom and swap).
    As well, for editing I find the lack of sandboxing on OSX allows for efficiency enhancing utilities across applications, something you don't get in iOS.  I understand the reason for that, but while more secure it also creates issues of its own in terms of usability in a number of situations.
    I prefer the iPad for totally single application focused situations where little or no input is required.  I use my iPad to hold copies of manuals when I'm doing a full day continuing education presentation for CPAs.  A MacBook Aire can't really fill in very easily for that usage.
    I see them each as tools appropriate for different jobs.

  • HT6510 Mid-2011 Macbook Air doesn't support Air Drop/Continuity/Handoff?

    Why does my mid-2011 Macbook Air not support Air Drop/Continuity/Handoff?  It has Bluetooth 4.0, which is what I thought was the main requirement for getting these devices to work together. I also have an iPhone 6 Plus and a 4th gen iPad.

    If you check your "System Information", it will tell you if Handoff is supported:
    Click on  > About This Mac > System Report...
    Under Hardware, click Bluetooth and check the "Handoff Supported" line

  • MacBook Air compatible with Acer S232HL 23 inch wide?

    My MacBook Air is a A1369 and I'm trying to connect it to an Acer S232HL 23 inch wide it has three ports on the back VGA, DVI and HDMI I tried hooking it up with VGA-Thunderbolt.  The first time I connected it,  it worked, Since then I can't get to work. I know everything works (thunderbolt port, adapter, VGA Cable) I can hook up to a smaller monitor works fine.
    I'm assuming as it worked once there may be something in the settings I accidentally changed and overlooked, Maybe it was just a fluke and worked just once. But I would prefer to use a widescreen monitor for e-mail. If I have to buy a different thunderbolt Cable (DVI or HDMI) first want to check is the monitor compatible or is it too wide.
    I've been a PC user for many years, now I'm a Mac user and will never go back. So I apologize for the lack of knowledge in what might be compatible.

    Once I plug in the Acer monitor the desktop on the MacBook air disappears, although the background color appears acting as if it was the second monitor.  What appears on the Acer monitor is “Input not supported” I would think if the Acer monitor is not supported it wouldn't blank out the MacBook air display. Also note when I unplug the Acer monitor everything goes back to normal on the Mac

  • If I have a MacBook Pro and an iPad what use would a MacBook Air serve me?

    Why would I want a MacBook Air if I have iPad and MacBook Pro?

    macbook Air has the weight of an Ipad (nearly) and has only 1 moving part, no HD to crash
    Macbook Air is the ONLY mac with Haswell ,  802ac wifi,  and incredible 12hr battery life
    Macbook Air has ultrafast 8 second boot from SSD
    An Ipad, though I have 2 of them and love them, are just a technical TOY, not a working device, not a productivity tool.  You cant compare an Ipad to a Macbook Air.
    Ive got a Pro and an Air.    Air has many advantages over that of a Pro.
    However if you have an Ipad AND a Pro, then youve got enough to do anything you want between the two.
