It was informative. However, without my sound working (because that was because I was looking for info), it was a bit hard... Thank goodness for the subs.
I don’t nornally write comments, but I had to log in and do so just to say how grateful I was! For nearly a year I couldn't play sound from my Mac on my TV through HDMI (the option to select the HDMI was not showing in the Sound menu). You, sir, just made my day - terminating the core audio (on my Mac showing as coreauthd) had worked a miracle! Thank you 🙏🏼
Thank you so much. I had spilled some of my drink on my Pro and the audio coincidentally stopped working. I was freaking out until I watched this video. Life saver, thank you
Hi-lost audio after disconnecting a new pair of airpod max headphones. I was scared but entered the Terminal command/forced quit coreaudiod and...alas🙂...could hear my macbook pro's voice once again!! Much appreciation for that&providing a new trusted source for future tech issues🙏🏻
Felt a bit silly when I had really strange audio dropouts, thought it was bluetooth but realised that all audio outputs disappeared. As soon as you mentioned terminating coreaudiod through terminal (or activity monitor) I went "dohhh", realising that this was the obvious thing to try. Worked nicely, thanks! You helped me after I had a bit of a brainfart :)
Honestly, no clue how it happened, but this video began playing with sound. Went back to the other applications that weren't playing sound and now all is good. Not sure what happened, but I appreciate it nonetheless! Thank you!!!
Thank you so much! Your Killaudio tip worked, I had already tried several other methods from other tutorials but none of them had worked. You're truly saving me during my finals!
OMG life saver. I have had this MAC forever and didn't even know it was sound capable because I got it second hand. I was just using a blue tooth speaker. You are a life saver. I love smarter people! Thanks again.
Thank you so much! I am very un-technical but somehow from watching (with captions that are a bit incorrect) and reading the comments, realized how to quit the "coreaudio" and restarted computer. It's fixed! Yay! Thank you!!
I had no sound playing when only using my Mac's speakers, but using AirPods, I had no trouble at all. Going into Terminal and using "sudo killall coreaudiod" solved it in no time. I don't really understand the technicality but you definitely helped me out here. Last night the same happened and I had to restart my Mac to regain sound through the speakers. This is a much quicker way to solve it!
Omg I literally spent almost an hour trying to figure out why my new MacBook aint sounding and how to fix it. This was so helpful 😭 i wanna cryyyyyy. Even though i had to turn on the caption 😅 now I believe the saying “until you have a problem before you try to find a solution
the ZAP the NVRAM thing worked great. I didn't even realise at the beginning when I heard the restart sound. Omg, you saved my life, thank you very much!!!
thank god I found this video! I just bought a MacBook Pro 2019 and I thought I got scammed, but luckily I found this video and after terminating core audio it works like a charm, thanks you so so much!!!
Suddenly, out of nowhere my MacBook Air has no sounds I used it yesterday and it was all good until today, I looked for tonnes of videos, changed the output, blah blah….additionally I had my iPhone with me so I decided to call my friend I said he Siri and the MacBook Siri responded, I then ask mac Siri to play music and MAGIC! my sound is back 🎉
Thanks you so much! I had problems with my bluetooth earphones, like audio dropouts every minute. The option that worked for me: Reset core audio, 2 secs and is perfect! Have a nice day and merry christmas
You saved my life, I am writing my thesis and when I looked for help on the Apple website, the only solution was to take my MacBook to an Apple technical support place. I didn't have time for that!!!
I updated my MacBook Pro in updates showing device audio support, that changed my output configurations to digital device output with a red light glowing in port , this video was helpful , I force quit coreaudio in activity monitor and did vram reset , back to normal thank you 2010 MacBook Pro !!!!
AHHHHHH LIFE SAVER, i have just got used to the idea of never having sound on my laptop ever again since I've been dealing with this issue on and off for 5 years! at first my volume would magically work again after connecting and disconnecting it to bluetooth or completely rebooting my laptop, after i found that force quitting before i restarted my laptop seemed to always fix the issue, however that started to no longer work either! But after going to the terminal it fixed the issue!!!
OMG this really worked. I just had to killall command in terminal and my audio works!!!!! I was so worried. Thank you Thank you Thank you!!! you are a life saver!!!!
im very grateful to you everything in the video from start to end was informational and i fixed my audio problem quite easily. my problem was the audio output one and after selecting internal speakers ITS FIXED
THANK YOU SOOOO MUCH OHMYGOD I WASS STRESSING SO BAD SINCE I DIDN'T HAVE TIME TO GET MY MACBOOK REPAIRED SINCE MY CLASSES R GONNA START SOON, THE TERMINAL WORKED PERFECTLY ON MINE AND I WAS SO RELIEVED WHEN IT WORKED, THANK YOUUUU!!!!!!!
thank you very much for doing this video , from one day to another my audio disappear and i read instructions from but the instructions omitted the part or restart the computer , your video saved me ❤
Thank you soo much for your wonderful video. It helped me a lot by making my MacBook speakers work completely perfectly and I recommend your channel to my friends and family members.Please keep making the videos. Simple, I love your videos.
This would probably have been wonderful if it had had text on the screen. Unfortunately, because my speakers aren't working, I can't hear a word of it. A bit like when you call your IT department and say 'I can't get online' and they tell you to go to a web-page for instructions to fix it. Thank goodness for the comments, which told me to look out for the terminal command, and I was able to fix it from that.
Using the sudo killall coreaudiod command and kill the audiod from activity monitor and then restart the mac fixed this issue.Thanks for the video 👌🏻👍🏻
Update: sudo killall did work for a while. Then I noticed the system sounds (move to trash, empty, etc.) once again stopped. I ran the sudo kill all and it went back to normal. I think I'll need to dig deeper to find the actual cause.
Update: 2023 January I encountered the same issue, the Internal Speakers and the Internal Microphone were gone. A simple CMD + OPTION + R + P combination solved the issue. The Internal Speakers and Internal Microphone showed back.
Thanks I was able to fix the problem even though I could not hear the sound to the video but I tried one of the tips just watching the video and it worked I had the sound on external headphones for some reason and I switched it to Macbook pro speakers and it worked! thanks!!
My daughter was playing with the keyboard and managed to mute the sound somehow, which was not clear. I was able to get it back on with terminal, thanks a lot for your help!
I tried almost everything and it didn’t work…until the very last step. That worked and now I can hear RUclips videos on my MacBook. I recently had an teams interview and couldn’t hear anything and had to reschedule on zoom and still didn’t hear anything. Luckily I had my phone as backup, but ugh I didn’t know that this is common on MacBooks. Not a good look, Apple!
It was informative. However, without my sound working (because that was because I was looking for info), it was a bit hard... Thank goodness for the subs.
i also noticed that irony
right? how idiotic do you have to be to get that it's useless to play sound instructions for fixing a no-sound issue?

same here but all sorted. Thanks for the trick!
