Intel Mac :: Volume Controls Not Working?
Apr 28, 2012The volume controls are not working correctly. Using the volume key on the keyboard, the volume overlays comes up and goes up/down, however there is no change in volume.
Also when i cick on the volume icon in the bar at the top i can move the slider up/down but no change in volume. The only way I can change the volume is to go into system preferences.Â
Restarting the iMac temporarily resolves the problem, but it's not usually long before it acts up again.
Info:
iMac, Mac OS X (10.6.8)
OS X :: MacBook Sound Controls Quit Working
Jun 8, 2009Today when I jumped on my Macbook and was watching a youtube video I tried to turn down the sound using my sound button in the upper right hand corner.. but nothing happened. I could see the sound bar that pops up in the middle of the screen go up and down but the sound stayed where it was. This is new and has never happened before.

Aug 11, 2009I'm sitting here typing a paper and my illuminated keyboard goes out when its set to be on all the time. I try adjusting it manually and it won't let me. My controls also stopped working on adjusting brightness. When I click increase volume, it brings up my dashboard. I did not spill anything on my laptop. It just started happening out of nowhere. I also tried restating and its still not working.

View 2 Replies View RelatedOS X :: Always Allow In Parental Controls - How To Reverse
Feb 12, 2008I have my daughter's accounts setup with parental controls (she's 9). I use the Parental Controls to limit the apps that she has access to so she does not get into trouble with applications that she should not be using.
I was working in my daughter's accounts the other day and I accessed the "System Preferences" application. Because this was one of the applications that I blocked, I was prompted (something to the effect of): This application is blocked by parental controls do you want to "Always Allow access", "Allow Access One Time", "Cancel"
I selected "Always allow" by accident. Now, when I go into parental controls, the "System Preferences" box is still unchecked, indicating that it should not be accessible by my daughter - but, when I go into my daughter's account, she has free/clear access to system preferences. I've tried checking and unchecking the Systems Preferences in parental controls, but it does not block access.
OS X :: Parental Controls Bypass?
Feb 16, 2009I noticed that my in-laws 13-year old kid spends all his time glued to their iMac. I know that his user-account has parental controls enabled, and his computer-time is limited. I talked with him about it, and he mentioned that "Those time-limits are useless, since I can easily bypass them". He wouldn't tell me how he does it, though.
So, how could he bypass the controls? I'm asking because I would like to be able to plug that hole (if possible), so he would do something else than sit by the computer all the time.
"Discussing" the matter with a frigging 13-year old who thinks he knows everything is next to useless.
Alternatively: is there a third-party parenting-app that would offer more robust features that the OS X built-in toold do?
OS X :: Parental Controls In 10.4 - How Easy Is It To Get Around Them
Feb 24, 2009I have a 13-year old son on an iBook running 10.4. Due to various internet and chat room issues which I won't go into here, I've had to add myself as an administrator on his computer and activate parental controls on his user account. His new goal in life now is to figure out how to circumvent them.
It seems like it shouldn't be possible . . . but then again, nothing is impossible. How concerned do I need to be?

Feb 23, 2012I am trying to set up parental controls on my OS 10.5 operating system, on a Mac I have owned for quite a few years. I set up my own account name when first bought the computer. I want to make sure that my computer cannot be used by anyone else. How do I go about doing that? (I made another account name today because my computer said I had to make another account name, that I could not make the administrator name into the account name using parental control. I didn't do anything with the new account name because the instructions on the screen got to confusing.)

OS X :: Can I Replace Whatever Controls The Bluetooth In My Imac
Jun 11, 2009I have a G5 Imac and after 3 years, the bluetooth connection to a wireless keyboard and mouse constantly cuts in and out. (works for 3 minutes, then won't, then will, etc.)
I've tried the same mouse and keyboard with my macbook and they both work fine with no dropouts.
I've checked for any updates to airport and there are none.
I've tried searching here and at several other forums...I tried deleting some file people suggested and that didn't work....in short I've tried everything I could and nothing has worked.
The only think I can think of is that the bluetooth "controller" or whatever is the engine for the bluetooth in the Imac is just plain bad. The problem is that I don't know exactly what or where it is, or if it is even replaceable?

Aug 21, 2010I am using Logitech Z-5500s with my MP. Under the sound settings with digital optical selected, it says: "The selected device has no output controls." And at the top of the screen where it shows the volume, it is grayed out. And when I hit the volume up/down/mute button on my keyboard, it has a circle with a line through it. If I play a song on iTunes, sound comes out and I can control the volume through the Logitech controller like normal. But even when something is playing, it still won't let me adjust the volume through the computer.

Apr 17, 2012I created an SD DVD in DVD Studio Pro 4, and when I tested it on a standard TV DVD player, the remote controls work just as they should. But, when I play it on a Mac computer using a remote, it doesn't work the same. For example, if I have a video track following a slideshow, when I'm on the last slide I can press PLAY and the video will play. But on a Mac, pressing PLAY is taking me back to the Menu page.

Intel Mac :: Parental Controls Do Not Work?
Jun 8, 2012We use both an iMac w/snow leopard and a mac mini with Lion. Whenever I configure parental controls to allow certain applications by checking the boxes, also the Dashboard widget (tea timer particularly to have kids keep track of time allowed), I have had issues with Firefox not working for them, although checked, as well as Safari which also was checked. The widget also checked would not allow it. All the apps they want to use has a warning sign that the administrator does not allow use (though it was previously allowed). Then when we enter the administrator password to allow use all the time, the same box keeps popping up despite using the correct login and password and never gets to the parental control window. So I check use just once and it allows it but never allows it to use always. It also would allow Safari after having to sign into parental controls again (even though it was checked in the first place) but it would not allow Firefox at all. There was a point in time (during earliest use) when it was working, and though the parental controls were thereafter modified, once you modify 1 user, it seems to uncheck some apps for the other so we have to recheck the other acct. Basically, parental controls do not work.

Mac Pro :: LED Cinema Extension Cable - Brightness Controls?
Nov 30, 2010I recently got a Kanex 15' Mini DisplayPort/USB extension cable. I was a little nervous about the length but as I really needed about 11' I went with that over the 10' one. Well I do like the length but I might end up making do with the 10' one due to some "interesting" issues. The video that I was actually worried about has no issues at all, but the USB is quite a bit flakey at 15'. I've had to very carefully separate it so it is not running next to any power cables. I've also learned that the LED Cinema sends it's Brightness controls over the USB port and this is the first to flake out. Brightness control over USB also tends to flake out more if there is other traffic over USB such as using playing Music on the LED Cinema. Not sure if there are some better cables coming to market that support audio over DisplayPort and might also fix this issue. I quite like my setup even if I have to jiggle cables every now and then to get my brightness control on my monitor to work.
