Sound not working on your Mac or MacBook Pro? Let's discuss how to fix it.

Hey everyone, today we're gonna discuss how to fix issues with your Mac's audio. If the sound suddenly stopped working on your Mac, simply follow the video and hopefully it'll be back up and running in no time!

Remember to turn on closed captioning by clicking the "CC" at the bottom right of your screen, or by pressing "C" on your keyboard, so you can follow the tutorial without sound.

Also, please note that if you have a hardware issue, then this video won't work for you and in that case I recommend you contact Apple Support at https://support.apple.com

Sometimes you may have to repeat the steps before they work correctly, so be patient. Make sure everything is done exactly as in the video.


SOLUTIONS:

1) Check your audio output device in System Preferences by opening System Preferences, open the Sound tab, and make sure your output device is set correctly(usually "MacBook Pro Speakers").

2) Restart your device by clicking the Apple  Logo in the top right corner of your screen. Click Restart, and then click Restart again.

3) Check your audio output device in the Audio MIDI Setup app by opening Spotlight Search by clicking the magnifying glass icon 🔎in the top right of your screen, or by clicking Command and the Space Bar at the same time. Search for and open Audio MIDI Setup and make sure your output device is set correctly(usually "MacBook Pro Speakers"). If it's not, right click your desired output device and click "Use this device for sound output". A small speaker icon should appear next to your device name. If not, try again. If you still don't see your output device, simply click the plus button and create a new output device.

4) Reset "NVRAM" or "PRAM" by clicking the Apple  Logo in the top right corner of your screen. Click Shut Down, and then click Shut Down again. When your computer is turned off, press the power button, and then before the Apple logo shows, begin the following steps:

For 2018 MacBook Pros and Newer:

1) Press and hold at the same time the Command, Option, P, and R keys.
2) Wait for the Apple Logo to appear, disappear, and appear again(can take up to 20 seconds).
3) Release the keys and wait for computer to start up as normal.

*If anything doesn't work as expected, restart the steps. It can take a few tries so be patient.

For Older MacBook Pros:

1) Press and hold at the same time the Command, Option, P, and R keys.
2) Wait for the Startup Chime.
3) Release the keys and wait for computer to start up as normal.

*If anything doesn't work as expected, restart the steps. It can take a few tries so be patient.

5) Create a new user account. This is done easily by opening System Preferences, then clicking Users and Groups. Next unlock the Users and Groups settings by clicking the padlock icon in the bottom left corner of your screen and enter your password. Next click the plus (+) button on the left side of the window, and create a new user account. Sign into the new account and set it up, and then test if your sound is working on there.

If none of the above solutions worked, be sure to contact Apple Support at https://support.apple.com
