I've got an older iMac that isn't registering that it has internal speakers. It's incompatible with the latest software update.
Does anyone have a solution to get my internal speakers to register that they are there in system preferences?
Thanks,
Eric
iMac, macOS 10.13
Start with How to reset the SMC of your Mac - Apple Support (CA) and perform this action 3 times consecutively ( Bong one, Bong two, Bong three ) and then release the 3 key combination.
Test if it now works
Still not working >>
1 - Suggest restarting in Safe Mode. This will perform a Disk Repair, clear cache files and only load Apple Software, extensions and fonts. The boot up will be slow and can take some time - Normal.
2 - Does the issue present in this mode ?
