Silent Mac
« on: September 08, 2006, 03:35:19 PM »
My son's new Mac Book Pro (15.4") was playing the sounds from his games (Second life and Lugaru).

Last night I did a mega install of Adobe CS2 suite, MS Office X, Audacity, FX Effects Lab, etc and then ran the /sbin/fsck disk repair (none needed) and then ran Cocktail (crons, repair permissions, delete caches).

All the "real software" is working fine with sound.

The games work, but no sound.

Since he's leaving for school tomorrow I'm short on time.

PS. a re-install of Lugaru didn't change it.

Thanks

MS Office X?

My recommendation: Purchase Microsoft Office 2004 for Mac STUDENT TEACHER EDITION off of Apple's website. It's the same as the regular Office 2004 that's like $300 AND you get THREE licenses instead of one!

How do the sound settings on the game look?
Maybe it's confusing an audio driver or something.

Hope this'll work =]
