Sound Problems

[geoking66]

Yesterday, I noticed that whenever I play videos online that are NOT QuickTime, the sound does not play. I see the video, but I hear nothing. I can't find any reasons why this is happening. Everything used to work fine, so I don't why all of the sudden it's stopped working. If anyone knows why this is going on, please respond.

repair permissions
and restart

How do you repair permissions? I'm kind of new at OS X, sorry if that's annoying.

I did the repair permissions, but it still doesn't work. I don't get why only QuickTime's sound works, it's really odd.

If you have Garageband installed, try firing that up and then quitting it. This can sometimes help as it re-initialises CoreAudio.

Thank you so much. It works perfectly.
