Mac Pro :: Audio Stuck On Mute?

Jul 5, 2012

When I reboot, the audio is muted. The slider audio from the top finder window is totally greyed out and when I goto system preferences it seems to lag and stall out. After many attempts I am able to get into the sound prefences and see that everything else is muted and I am unable to change anything. 

I am assuming it is trying to use the optical audio or something like that. I try to open the audio Midi app in utilities but I do not see much options to change. I am not sure what to change.  

I had the similar problem with a laptop that went to mute due to the optical audio jack getting messed up so it would default to optical audio. However, pluging headphones in I could still hear audio. On my mac pro the headphone jack does not work either.   

After trying to reset the PRAM and SMC settings, disk permissions I am still having the problem.

I'm about to do a fresh install of Lion on a spare Hard drive and see if them problem is there present. I have added a Blu-ray burner to the lower bay in my mac pro. Could this cause a problem with audio?

Mac Pro (Early 2009), Mac OS X (10.7.4)

OS X :: No Audio Output From External Input.

Sep 12, 2010

I have a mac mini (solo intel) 10.4 OSX. I have no audio output when attaching an external input source like a CD player or ipod to the input jack on my Mac Mini. Audio output from ITunes or movies clips in IPhoto works fine. I have checked the cables and connections. I have checked the "sound" location in System Preferences to make sure the "built in output" source is selected. The input volume display shows that the audio input is being registered. I have checked "system profiler" in the Utilities folder in Applications to make sure the "built in output" AKA headphone outlet is recognized.

I have the "Soundflower" App. installed but turned off.

why the audio output from the internal sources like ITunes and IPhoto music clips work but the audio output from an external input source does not? Is there some software or a driver required for audio output from an external source that is not required for audio output from an internal source?

Software :: Passing Audio Input To Output

Feb 3, 2009

This is probably a silly question, but I was wandering if it was possible to pass audio from the line-in on a MacBook Pro directly to an audio output? I was thinking of buying a PS3 and connecting it to my external monitor, and thought I may be able to play sound through my soundsticks rather than buying more speakers (budget is an issue!).

I know this used to be possible in the "Audio MIDI Setup" application bundled with the system, but I can't seem to find the option in the new version (maybe something to do with aggregate devices?)

MacBook Pro :: No Audio Input Or Output On 15 Inch?

May 15, 2012

I recently had a cracked panel on an old Macbook Pro 15 inch (A1260) and just replaced it with a new one.  Ever since i replaced it i have had no sound.  Now i consider myself an experienced mac user so i have checked under my sound prefences and it doesnt list anything under sound input or output and things are grayed out.  I also had the guy who replaced my panel, who is also my friend, check everything out and he hasn't been able to figure out why there is no sound.  he gave me a usb midi device that shows up and works but when unplugged theres nothing. 

Another thing that has started is, video online will stop every 11 seconds, and thats with me clicking on the bar when it stops playing after the first 11 seconds.

Hardware :: Looking For Audio Video Input Output Device

Jun 20, 2009

I am about to buy a 15 in. MBP and I'll be going on a trip soon. I was wondering if there was anything I could get that would let me both use my mac as a tv for my xbox and use a tv as an additional monitor.

Something that would have RCA input/output (the red, white, yellow cords) and would connect to my mac with USB or hopefully firewire 800 (express card 32 would work as well).

MacBook Air :: Can't Set Audio Output To HDMI Because Option Not Exist

Aug 30, 2014

I have a (little) problem with my new MacBook Air 2014 (13 inch.) running on 10.9.4 : when I connect it to any HDMI device (Philips monitor or Sony TV through Marantz amplifier) through a mini DP-HDMI adapter, I can't set audio output to HDMI because this option does not exist... However, I have video signal. 

I've tried lots of "solutions", but nothing is working :

     - Shutting down, restarting, sleeping with and without the cable connected

     - Change HDMI cable

     - Reset PRAM 

Finally, I think the problem come from the Macbook because I have an other laptop (a Thinkpad with a mini displayport, with Ubuntu 14.04) and the video and sound are working normally.

MacBook Air, OS X Mavericks (10.9.4)

MacBook :: 'Built In Speakers' Are No Longer An Option For Audio Output

Mar 15, 2012

The speakers on my Macbook have suddenly stopped working. If you plug headphones in, fine. In the system preferences, 'built in speakers' are no longer an option for audio output. Just 'digital out'. When I try and change the volume of the speakers, the symbol is greyed out, and there's a little "you can't do this" symbol.

I have a Macbook black 2.0ghz with 10.5.8

MacBook Pro :: Audio Out Stuck On Digital Output After Running A HDMI Setup?

Apr 29, 2012

So while at a gig last night with my band, we ran a video from my computer to screens on stage. The chain looked like so: 

MBP -> Mini-DisplayPort -> MDP/HDMI converter -> 4-way HDMI Splitter -> LCD Monitors 

Now sometime during takedown, someone just decided to unplug something from my computer without consulting me or taking any proper precautions. Now my audio is stuck on Digital Output (type digital optical out). Here's what I know, and what I've tried.I have reset the PRAM/NVRAM?I have killed coreaudio a few times with no luck?I have deleted without progress:

1) com.apple.audio.DeviceSettings.plist

2) com.apple.audio.SystemSettings.plist

3) com.apple.systemsound.plist

I have restarted my computer?I have attempted to use Audio MIDI Setup?I have googled:

1) com.apple.systemsound

2) macbook pro stuck on digital out audio no red light

3) force resetting to internal audio osx

4) force reset coreaudio osx

[code]....

Mac Pro :: Volume Stuck On Mute

Jul 30, 2010

I have a late 2006 Mac Pro 3Ghz dual. Recently the volume dropped down to nothing and when I access the control panel, I see the mute button checked on all outputs except the digital (the one I have never used). All inputs are also muted and I cannot uncheck any of them. The little volume indicator is sitting in the lower middle of my screen and won't go away.

I have tried:
Zapping PRAM
repairing permissions
trashing the sound pref
using a different account
multiple restarts and shut downs
unplugged and re-plugged both the headphones and line out

And none of it has worked. The sound indicator shows up with the startup screen and never goes away and I have no sound. If I drag the volume slider up, it just goes back down. I am guessing this is a failing motherboard, being that I have lost my "A" RAM slot, but I really hope not. This is going to be unbearable to live with.

Hardware :: Input Output Error On Ide Drive?

Jun 10, 2009

So I have an IDE DVD burner that I have inserted into my powermac G4. It has been taken out of a windows computer. The drive seems to work well other than when I burn a disc it tells me that it failed... However the disk works just fine. Thats not the issue the issue is the input output error that I am getting when trying to back up my OS X disc. I found instructions that have worked but it was a pain in the @$$ to do and I wasn't able to do it from my computer due to the input output error 0 that I received... The only thing that I can think of is that this is due to the DVD burner that I have used to read the disc?? Would that be correct? I was able to complete the back up from a friends powerbook G4 no problem.

OS X V10.7 Lion :: Change Input/Output With One Click?

May 24, 2012

I would like to find a way or an app that would allow me to change the input AND output sound device with one click.  I realize you can to ALT-Sound icon, but you have to individually choose the input and output. 

The idea is this:  when I switch to a USB headphone with mic, and would always want both the input and output to be the headset.

IMac (Intel) :: Input Sound Won't Output?

I can feed sounds into my iMac with line input but no sound comes out vis internal speakers. I can record the input sound using Amadeus and play through gives me sound output. When not using Amadeus although input is set to line in and output to internal speakers no sound comes out. There appears to be some internal disconnection between input and output.

OS X :: How To Listen To Audio Input To My MBP Through Audio In Line?

Jul 27, 2007

I have audio that is being sent to my MBP through an audio in line that I would like to monitor for audio quality. The only way I know how to listen in real time to the audio is by way of Audio Recorder, but it seems a little unnecessary to have a recording application open simply to listen to my media that is being sent in. Is there a feature already part of OS X that allows me to turn this on? I looked in system prefs, but couldn't find anything to enable this. I will resort to audio recorder if I have to, but would be very happy if this was already a feature.
