Earlier this week I wrote saying that the volume setting on the Mac didn't work at all. Now it works and I didn't do anything to change it. The problem is sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't and I can't see any correlation between when it does and when it doesn't. Do you have any suggest

Exactly. As long as the account is file vault enabled, you simply type that user name and then its password at the FileVault login screen. Take Care John D. Panarese Director Mac for the Blind Tel, (631) 724-4479 Email, j...@macfortheblind.com Website, http://www.macfortheblind.com APPLE CER

My only thought is that it depends on your output device. Does it always work, for example, when you are using internal speakers or standard headphones? Does it always fail when you're using bluetooth or USB audio, or some kind of external sound card or mixer? Are you sure it isn't a hardware pr
