Fixed. Thanks. No sound. Tried so many things that I'm not sure what worked. Might have been a command-f5. Just the sort of thing a four-footed random walker might type. Whatever it was wasn't obvious. I'd really expected the fix to take a lot more work.
Electronics. Software. Too many interacting parts. Every time my PC boots successfully, it's like a little miracle. So much could go wrong. And our civilization rests - not terribly securely - on all this stuff almost always being designed right and rarely failing.
Change to what? How so?
~KLM\\ Knowing your own darkness is the best method for dealing with the darkness of other people" ~ Carl Jung //That's a big topic. Worth a long discussion.At the moment, I'm having a knock-your-head-against-the-wall maintenance issue with a Mac Book Air that's my music server. Cat walked on the keyboard and made an unfortunate and critical change I can't see how to undo. Will eventually figure it out, but the wasted time and the frustration are what I've learned to expect from Windows. I was hoping I'd see no more of that with Apple. Wrong. Sigh.--david@luda.netpad4Well I have read a lot about Mac maintenance, which I thank Randy for. How does that differ from Windows maintenance? Note that I have an iMac, Windows 7 laptop,and iPhone and iPads

I agree David. Windows maintenance is why I switched to Apple in 2006. To this day, I've never been happier.
\\ /\( ) Alice.( ). Little White RabbitI don't hate Windows, but I'm tired of the maintenance. Apple ought not to fall into that hole.I thought Windows patented the blue screen of death. On a Windows machine it's the last thing you ever see. Did I mention I hate Windows? :)PeteI heard from my tech friend.He said, "Not unusual. These blue screens are common. Basically it¹s caused by a
compatibility issue between one of the apps and the iOS. The iOS is
64-bit, and not all of the third party apps have been converted. I think
Apple will quash these bugs with 7.1, which is due to come out soon."Photos atSent from my iPadAirThis morning I unplugged my iPad. I turned it on the Apple emblem showed up on the screen, was there a long time, it flashed a blue screen and went back to black. Again the Apple icon came on took a long time/blue went back to black. Thus happened a good six or seven times. I tried holding down the buttons and finally plugged it into the computer. It did not show up in iTunes but after about a minute I had the homescreen.Terry
