Hardware :: MBP Internal Speakers Not Functioning?

Sep 8, 2009

The internal speakers on my MacBook Pro (OS X 10.5.5) are not functioning at all.The 1/8" jack works fine with external speakers and headphones, although there is a red light in the jack when nothing is plugged in. The light does remain turned off for a moment after anything is unplugged, but when I try to raise the volume on my keypad the light returns and the volume indicator displays a gray, not white, speaker with a crossed circle under the volume bars. Can anyone advise me on how to rid my machine of this terrible red light and return audio to my internal speakers?

MacBook Pro :: No Audio Out From Speakers / Not Showing Internal Speakers

Mar 19, 2008

MacBook Pro 2.16
10.4.11

Situation: no sound out from speakers in admin and user account and newly created account. Headphones work, startup chimes work on speakers.

Go to Sound in Preferences and only shows Digital Out for output. Should show Internal Speakers. Ran Diskwarrior and Applejack and zapped pram. Took mac apart and confirmed speakers wired correctly which is verified by the start up chimes being audible on the internal speakers. tested all accounts and created new account all with the same results. Did search of Google and MacRumor. Found one unaswered post indicating same problem. Had same problem with another macbook pro, ran same steps, take apart, confirm wiring setup, Diskwarriored, applejacked and zapped pram and it fixed the problem. I'm not sure what else to try. Did check Audio Midi Setup util and it also did not see the internal speakers.

MacBook Pro :: Internal Speakers Not Working

Sep 27, 2007

Sound isn't coming out of my internal speakers. When I hook up headphones everything is fine, but when I'm on the computer itself, no sound comes out, a red light is coming from my headphone jack, and the volume controls don't do anything (volume stays at max and there's a white circle with diagonal sign thru it, like a no smoking sign) and I don't get sound.

MacBook Pro :: Not Recognizing It's Internal Speakers?

Feb 2, 2008

So... for reasons unknown, my macbook pro is not recognizing it's internal speakers, in the sound options for output it only shows the digital out option.I searched trough the apple support site and the mac's help and all they say is to select the speakers, but that's kinda hard when they play hide and seek. Anyone knows what's up with that? Cause the weirdest thing is that they will make that mac sound when you first press the "on" button.

Windows On Mac :: There Is No Audio From The Internal Speakers At All?

Dec 13, 2008

I have a new aluminium 2.53 MBP and have installed vista 64 ultimate on it via bootcamp.

I have noticed that I am having problems with the audio, there is no audio from the internal speakers at all and when ever I boot up in vista the audio jack has a red light coming out of it...This only occurs in bootcamp and if i go back to OSX the problem disappears

I have installed the latest driver from realtek and have tried to fiddle with the audio jack using cotton buds etc, but nothing seem to work... are there any other ways from rectifying this?

MacBook Pro :: No Sound From Internal Speakers?

Sep 6, 2009

I was watching a movie on the bus using my headphones earlier today, and when I got home just now, the internal speakers aren't working. There is a red light coming from the headphone port and the volume can not be adjusted. Is there a software fix, or do I have to take this thing to the genius bar? I restarted the computer, still no dice.

IMac :: Internal Speakers No Good?

Oct 7, 2009

I bought a new iMac a couple of weeks ago, it's my first alu one but I've had two of the white plastic ones before. The sound from the internal speakers in my old iMacs is pretty acceptable for day to day usage (not playing music of course), but the new one sounds horrible... extremely tinny. So is this just what they're all like these days? If not I guess it's got some issues:-/

Mac Pro :: Audio Out Changed To Internal Speakers

Nov 10, 2009

This is the second time an update has done this to me (Early 2008 Mac Pro). Run the update (10.6.2) - reboot - "sound effects" and "output" changed from "line out" to "internal speakers". What's up with that? Not a big deal - but kind of a pita when I get a call at work from a family member asking why iTunes is playing from the internal speaker...

IMac :: Internal Speakers Blown Out?

Dec 27, 2009

Is there a way to tell if/how my speakers are damaged? I have 24" aluminum imac (bought December 2007, whichever model that is), and I was using the internal speakers (I don't normally do this). I was playing an avi file (xvid / mp3 encoding) on VLC.app, and i struck the space bar to pause it. Instead of stopping, my comp emitted an extremely loud "beep" sound at around 400 Hz, and ever since the audio has been weird. At first it was sorta/really scratchy and broken and a little diminished in loudness, but now it is very quiet, playing sounds at around 1/4 the normal volume. What the hell happened to it?

Intel Mac :: No Sound From Internal Speakers?

Mar 22, 2012

the ONLY output device listed in my system preferences is Digital Output with Optical Digital-Out Port. I NEVER used headphones or any external speakers. I don't know what turned the Internal Speakers OFF But I would like to turn them back on. I can't find any thing any where in the OS that would do that. Any one has ANY Clue to why this would happen?

The internal speakers in my MacBook Pro do not work.  I went to System Preferences/Sound/Output and there are no Internal Speakers listed as an option to select.  They used to work (and I assume they used to be listed as an available output device.  I have been on hold with Apple Care now for 43 minutes.

Applications :: Using Internal And External Speakers At Same Time?

Aug 31, 2010

Does anyone know how one can use both the internal laptop speakers AND the external speakers connected through the 3.5mm audio port? My speakers are spread around the room and this would be a good way to get a more '3D feel' of the music.

MacBook Pro :: Use Headphone Jack And Internal Speakers Together?

Jun 19, 2009

Is it possible by any means to use the headphone output and the built in speakers together.The reason I ask is I have a wireless speaker which transmits from the headphone jack. When this is plugged in it sends everything playing on my MBP to the speaker. This is great but I would also like the music to play from my laptop speakers at the same time.

MacBook Pro :: Internal Speakers Aren't Recognized?

Jul 14, 2009

here's what's wrong:

1- Under sound in system preferences- output volume is muted and I can't un-click it

2-Also under sound in system preferences no devices are found under output and input

3-The sound symbol doesn't show in the top toolbar.

Also I googled this same problem and a lot of other people say a red laser is coming out of the head jack on the computer, I however don't have this problem.

IMac :: 27" Internal Speakers Variance?

Dec 1, 2009

just wanted to ask you guys if you've played music on your new macs and moved the sound from left to right? I was just fiddling with mine while playing some music in itunes and discovered the speakers sound quite different with the left well rounded and solid and the right sounding less deep and more hollow. Neither speaker distorts or sounds bad in isolation but they do sound different to each other. Has anyone else noticed this?

IMac :: Using Internal Speakers Without Unplugging Headphones

Mar 28, 2010

I'm still in love with my iMac, now entering the phase where I have to fight with SWMBO* to get access to my main machine. I have plugged a pair of headphones in the iMac but I would like to be able to find a software solution that would let me switch between headphones and the internal speakers of the iMac (which are quite good actually!) Plugging / Unplugging is not really ideal and I swear I thought I could do this on my powerbook...

MacBook Pro :: Balance On Internal Speakers Is Inaccurate?

May 21, 2010

Both my 15" MacBook Pro (i5) and my mum's last year 15" C2D ones have what seems to be an inaccurate balance with the internal speakers. The right hand speakers appear to be stronger.

Anyone else noticed this? It's not the end of the world, as the balance can be changed, but you'd think at 50% left 50% right that the volume would be the same per speaker...

OS X :: Manually Switching From Internal Speakers To Headphones?

Apr 1, 2008

It's been a bad evening. A friend accidentally tripped over a 1/8th to RCA cable we were running from the MB to the TV. Friend and TV are fine, but the MB no longer switches from "internal speakers" to "headphones" when I plug in a pair of headphones, the 1/8th cable, etc. It stays on speaker mode even when the plug is fully inserted.

I've experimented with a toothpick, and have engaged and disengaged the digital out, but that's not the issue. If I bend a fully inserted headphone plug hard towards the front of the MB (i.e., toward the USB ports), I get full stereo sound, which indicates the jack is still partly working; however, under all other circumstances, sound comes through the speakers, which suggests the MB isn't receiving the "switch" signal properly from the jack.

I've been googling for the last few hours, and it looks like Macbook Wind users have found ways to alter the AppleHda.kext file to allow them to manually toggle between internal speakers and headphones, which means there has to be a way to do this on the native Macbook. Unfortunately, no one seems to have this specific problem (or at least, I haven't found anyone with this issue since I started searching)

Software :: Mute Internal Speakers If Headphones Come Out?

Jan 8, 2009

I can't recall what I need to accomplish this, but I'd like to be able to mute my internal speakers in the event that my headphones come out on accident (my headphones won't securely fasten into the mac, thus have the tendency to fall out).

MacBook Pro :: Internal Speakers Won't Show Up In Settings

Feb 20, 2012

I have tried plugging in headphones, and when i take them out, no red light appears like others say.  Also, in the sound settings, there is no built in speakers to click on. All of this happened after I deleted a program off my computer, and restarted it. Once I restarted the computer, it stayed on the startup screen so i did the safe start (hold shift while you press the power button).

Intel Mac :: Internal Speakers Cannot Be Chosen As Output

Feb 25, 2012

I usually listen to any output from my iMac (Intel Core 2 Duo 3.06GHz, 27", early 2010) through an external amp and speakers, via the analog output (headphone socket). However - I recently disconnected the jack plug to listen through the machine's internal speakers but was greeted with silence. I checked the volume via the kb controls - the mini display appeared on screen suggesting that the volume was set on full, though I could not adjust it at all. I reconnected the jack plug and sound came out from my external speakers as usual. On disconnection, no volume. I searched the forums for ideas, and came across this support article: [url],,, which I followed to the letter.

When I open 'Sounds' in System Preferences, the only output option available to me is 'Digital Out' - there is no option for internal speakers or headphones. However, if I plug in the line-out jack, the options change - only 'Headphones' is available (no 'Digital Out' any more). Following the article, I checked to see if there was a red light in the digital output socket, which there is not.
