am_fek Posted June 4, 2004 Share Posted June 4, 2004 Since 10.3.4 was installed on my G5 (it doesn't happen on my Powerbook), the system volume drops massively whenever I wake it up from sleep. I don't mean the actual volume slider falls, I'm talking about the actual output. I mean that, after sleeping and waking my machine, I can crank it up to full volume and it will still be quieter than it normally would be at, say, 1/4 volume. Logging out does not fix the issue, nor does switching users. Rebooting does. Haxies installed: ShapeShifter WindowShadeX (disabled) Mighty Mouse Metallifizer As I say, it's started happening since 10.3.4. Anyone got any bright ideas? :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

am_fek Posted June 6, 2004 Author Share Posted June 6, 2004 aido: Just third-party amplified speakers.. they're not soundsticks or anything (been looking to upgrade for some time now) thekore: Yeah, I did the other day.. there are people with the same problem but no real answers from the Apple guys. One person suggested resetting the PRAM so I'll do that. NeYo: Trouble is, even though it's quiet, I still can't sleep unless it does too :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
am_fek Posted June 14, 2004 Author Share Posted June 14, 2004 Just did an archive and reinstall of OS X yesterday. Under 10.3 it was fine, but once I ran the combined OS X update to 10.3.4, it's doing it again. Obviously the update is screwy. Anyone know where I can get the combined 10.3.3 update still?

azcodemonkey Posted June 14, 2004 Share Posted June 14, 2004 At least your wakes up. I had my Powerbook sleeping all weekend. It wouldn't wake up this morning, and now it won't boot. :( I have to take it in. At least there is an Apple store 13 miles away from me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
am_fek Posted June 14, 2004 Author Share Posted June 14, 2004 Man, that sucks. On that topic my PB is nearly 12 months old, better go and get the AppleCare plan just in case :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
azcodemonkey Posted June 15, 2004 Share Posted June 15, 2004 It sucks even more that it's only 1 month old. I'm thinking, if I end up keeping this thing, that I'd better buy the AppleCare plan, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
