1. Re: CS4: Play button is missing?!
Liquid80 Aug 4, 2010 11:30 AM (in response to Brittanyls)Wow my friend was having the EXACT same problem on the same date as you! LOL I have been trying to fix it for her and FINALLY I did!!!
Tried everything from reinstallation, new projects, etc and NOTHING worked!!!
Then for some reason I decided to click on "Window" on the menu bar without even thinking and then clicked "Program Monitor"!!! PROBLEM SOLVED!!!
There are TWO different views. One called "Program Monitor" and the other called "Reference Monitor" and the annoying thing is they look nearly identical but function differently!!!
So all this time you had "Reference Monitor" open instead of "Program Monitor".
I registered and created an account just to help you out because I can see the frustration my friend was going through. This will probably be my only post! LOL
Have a good day and all the best from Australia!!!

Bill Hunt Aug 4, 2010 12:55 PM (in response to Liquid80)Welcome to the forum, and thanks for that.
If that's the cause of the OP's problem, then Window>Workspace>Reset Workspace (or similar syntax) would bring up the default Workspace with the Program Monitor.
@ the OP,
For the playback that is only Audio, can you please give us details on your Project/Sequence Preset, and then the full details of your source footage?
Good luck,
Hunt

Thanks!

That is great news, and glad to hear it.
I have to admit that I would never have thought that the Reference Monitor might have been launched - at least not in this lifetime! Now, I have another tip to pass along. Thanks for that.
