Archived from groups: microsoft>public>mac>office>entourage (more info?)

I am not sure what happened or what I did wrong but Entourage 2004 is
now running silent under 10.4.1. I went to the Ent Preferences and
things seem to be checked correct. Then double checked the System
Preference/Sound panel and it it looks normal. I even did a restart and
Entourage only is still muted. Other application alerts seem to be
working.

Any suggestions on how to get the alerts back?

This really has me stumped. I rebooted from a backup hard drive and the
Entourage sound alerts work. While booted from another drive, I ran the
10.4 Disk Utility Disc First Air on the primary drive. I then restarted
and zapped the pram a few times. Before doing all of this I used the
repair permissions on the primary drive.

Where are the alert prefs for Ent stored? I may try a swop of the
appropriate MS file from the backup hard drive (that works) to see if I
can get the MS sounds to work again.

Any suggestions will be appreciated. You don't miss the alerts until
they are muted!

May have solved the problem by messing with the Sound control panel in
System Preferences. Some dummy (me) had the Output set to the USB port
rather than the Internal Speakers. Seems to be working okay now!

I was just about to reinstall the Tiger.

It is really fixed. The problem was the Sound preference panel was set
to Output via the USB port rather than the internal speakers. I have no
idea how it was changed but if you lose the sound check the System
Preferences - Sound panel.
