This problem is nn a new 15″ Macbook Pro 2008 Uni-body.

The sound used to work in Vista but now it doesn’t. There’s a red light emanating from the headphone jack so I looked up a bunch of threads on it which told me it was the optical audio being toggled to “on”. The sound card seems to work fine (all drivers installed) while checking the settings in Vista. Even the tests seem to play something but no sound is coming from the internal speakers. When I plug in headphones, there is no sound coming from them either. I have uninstalled the sound card and had vista reinstall it on restart but to no avail.

I’m guessing the optical audio is permanently on now? I have had no luck with finding threads on disabling the optical audio in vista. Jiggling the headphone plug in the jack didn’t work either. Just for clarification, the sound works just great in OSX and no red light problems there.

Anyone have any idea? Thanks for reading!

Hello,

I have had my MacBook for about 6 months now. I am running Windows
XP using Parallels 3.0 and it is very slow (especially when running
Word). I have 4 GB of RAM on my Mac and I am allocating 2 GB for
my Windows VM.

Any suggestions on how to get this thing to run faster?

Thanks.

I’m running windows XP on my iMac via parallels 4.0, but I’m unable to connect to my houses wireless internet. What is the process to get the windows portion online?

This might just be a basic windows question (since I’m completely unfamiliar with windows) but I could use some help either way.

The computer is an Intel Core 2 Duo iMac running OSX 10.5.5

My internet is not from airport, but from a Freebox. It’s a french company, but I think it’s the same as Linksys? in the states. It’s just a wi fi transmitter.

Thanks!

I have had my White MB 2.4 w/ 2g ram since September and I love it! But for the last week or so the internet has been going extremley slow! It just loads and loads and loads forever! I have it on my home wifi and it used to be extremley fast… I don’t think it’s the internet going slow b/c my pc is going just fine… I don’t think my wifi is being jacked by a neighbor b/c it’s pw … any ideas??? I reset safari this morning to no evail… please help!

Thanks!

I just installed Windows XP pro SP2 on my new aluminum Macbook. But I’m having some frustrating problems with the drivers. Installed the drivers from the Leopard DVD, and without checking if everything worked, I installed the Boot Camp 2.1 update from Apple. I then proceeded to update my XP to SP3. That’s when I noticed that there was no way in **** I could get a right-click, and that there was no sound.

I’ve tried repairing and reinstalling the drivers from the Leopard DVD many times. Also the 2.1 update. Sometimes the sound works, sometimes it does not. But the right-click never works. Also tried to install just the trackpad drivers seperately, but with no luck.

Has anybody got some idea of how I can fix this? I am hoping to do it without reinstalling XP.

Suggestions are extremely appreciated, as I am growing desperate
