Fix 1: Perform basic troubleshooting

This is the first thing you should do when the speakers on your MacBook Pro are not working properly. Here are the things you should try:

It probably says 'PDF' as a defaut. Click the arrow next to that for the drop-down menu and select 'Save as PDF.' This will open an dialog window asking what you'd like to name the document. Type in the name and click 'Save' in the lower right hand corner. Your document will then be saved.

  1. Unplug any headphone or external speakers connected to your MacBook Pro.
  2. Is your volume too low? Try turning it up a bit and see if you can hear any sound from the speakers.
  3. Open another program and play some sound on it to see if your speaker problem happens only on a specific program.
  4. Try restarting your MacBook Pro and see if this fixes the speakers.
  1. Touch ID has been a groundbreaking inclusion in the MacBook Pro Devices since late 2016. Availing users with easy access to their Mac without entering the passwords did help Apple gain unmatched loyalty. Excluding a couple of odd experiences wherein the MacBook Pro Touch ID is not working, I have personally loved the feature since its launch.
  2. For the past two weeks Xfinity stream has not been working on my Macbook. The website itself will load and I'm able to watch any recorded shows, but OnDemand isn't working. When I select a show it just keeps buffering. All other streaming websites are running perfectly okay (Netflix, YouTube, Hulu, etc.).

If none of these works for you, don’t worry. There are still other fixes for you to try.

Fix 2: Check your audio output settings

Perhaps your audio output settings are incorrect so your MacBook Pro speakers are not working. To check these settings:

1) Click System Preferences on your Dock.

2) Click Sound.

3) Make sure Internal Speakers is selected and the Mute option is unchecked, and move the volume slider to the right.

Now check to see if you can play sound with your speakers. Hopefully you can. But if not, then move on to the next fix.
