I cannot hear music or media in second life is on and checked my download speed and reset the rate but still cannot hear media can hear everything else. Also cannot see media on screens .

Check:

Do you have music and media turned on in your Preferences?

Is there music or media actually playing on the land parcel where you are?

If you are using the Phoenix or Firestorm viewers, do you have the Media White List/Black List function, and/or the Media Filter options enabled?  This may prevent you from receiving music or media, until you specifically provide permission.

Dumb question:  Did you click the Play button in your viewer?
