disc using the AppleCD Audio Player.

m

If your CD-ROM player was installed after you bought your computer,
make sure the audio cable is properly connected. See the documentation
that came with the CD-ROM player for more information.

m

If you have headphones or speakers connected to the computer, adjust the
connector to make sure they are firmly connected. Make sure the volume
control on your headphones or speakers is not turned down too low.

If you do not have headphones or speakers connected to the computer,
make sure that nothing else is plugged into the sound output port on your
computer.

Some programs change the sound options to suit their needs. You may need
to reset the sound options in a control panel. Refer to the “Sound” topic of
Macintosh Guide available in the Guide (h) menu.

If you are using a CD-ROM disc over a network, you won’t be able to hear
the audio portion.

Audio Player open, drag the volume control slider up or press the Up
