No sound on my macbook pro 13"

Okay so this have been going on for a few weeks I use my headphones a lot and sometimes when I take them out there is no sound at all and the only thing I can do to get the sound back is if I restart the computer..


What can I do?

Hopefully one of these steps should solve the problem.

1. System Preference > Sound > Output > Internal Speakers

Make sure Mute is not enabled.


2. Remove the headphone.


If you see red light in the headphone port, plug the headphone

in and out of the port 5 or 6 times to flip the microswitch inside.

Sound output may be stuck in the digital mode.




3. Reset PRAM. http://support.apple.com/kb/PH4405


4. Reset SMC. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3964


Choose the method for:

"Resetting SMC on portables with a battery you should not remove on your own".


5. Applications > Utilities > Audio MIDI Setup


Audio Devices window

Side Bar

Click the Built-in Output.


Under Mute any of the boxes checked? If so uncheck it.


Option click the speaker icon, if present and select Internal Speakers.





Best.
