 Hi folks,
 just wondering whether anybody else has trouble increasing the volume on an 
 MBA? Sometimes, and it's just happened again, after opening the lid, I'm 
 unable to increase or decrease the volume using fn plus f11 and 12. Most of 
 the time it works, including hearing the audible volume up and down sounds. 
 But often I am unable to increase or decrease it. I don't know whether this 
 is a VoiceOver thing or just a Yosemite bug, so am not sure to whom I should 
 report it.
 By the way, the new MBA is so much faster than my old Macbook Pro from 2011. 
 It's a joy to use the Mac again, where it was getting frustrating and slow 
 using the old one. It would take 10 seconds to open a programme on the old 
 one. Migration assistant worked like a charm and I'm very happy with the new 
 machine. It's very snappy.
 I increased the ram to 8 gb, and left the rest as is. And I even managed to 
 format the old one and reinstall the OS, pretty much all by myself. I was 
 impressed there was speech throughout. And I was pretty nervous about doing 
 it by myself, but it's definitely possible even for me.

You can set up the volume beeps to indicate volume change in Sound section  of 
system preferences.

Re: Unable to increase volume sometimes under Yosemite

2014-12-10 Thread Jonathan Mosen
Hi Lisette, when I've seen this, it's been because VoiceOver is using your 
on-board sound, but the default sound output device has been set to something 
else, maybe an airplay device. It would be worth going into Sound preferences 
and verifying what your output is set to.
