External speaker won't work

I have a BlackBerry Curve 8310 and the external speaker won't work. I don't get any notification of calls, texts, etc. I had a new external speaker put in but that didn't fix the problem. Anybody have any ideas of what else could be wrong? My phone is no longer under warranty, so AT&T will not replace my phone.

The same thing happened to me. Go to Applications and then the Utilities Folder and then open the Audio Midi Setup app. Make sure the default output and system output are set to the built in output. The same symptoms happened to me when I ad reset those options to an aggregate device I created for some simple music production. Setting the above setting back to the defaults made everything better.

  • External microphone won't work on Macbook Pro

    My external microphone won't work on my Macbook Pro.
    My mic is an SE2200 A, and I'm pluggin that into a Behringer Eurorack UB802 (with Phantom power). This is then connected to a 1/4 inch to 3.5mm adapter so I can plug it into my Macbook Pro.
    If I plug this directly into my Macbook Pro into the headphone socket (which I've been told doubles up as a mic socket), and go to Settings -> Sound -> Input, the mic does not appear on screen at all.
    If I plug it into a 3.5mm to USB adapter, and plug it into a USB port on my mac, then the USB PnP Sound Device appears on the Settings -> Sound -> Input, but no sound is picked up.
    Could any suggest why this isn't working?
    thanks

    You have to use a cable that will break out the 3.5 mm TRRS jack into mic, L, and R.
    I haven't found the right wiring yet and the cables I have tried don't seem to work.
    See this post: What is the wiring digram on the MacBook Pro 3.5 mm TRRS jack?

  • External keypad won't work after installing OS 7.

    External keypad won't work after installing OS 7. I have a "Zagg" keyboard that won't pair now to OS 7,...Why?

    They do work. I have one and mine is working. Have you tried to reset your iPad? HOlding down teh sleep and home keys until it reboots then try pairing again.
    A slightly more drastic thing is to go into the settings and reset all settings. THe downside, you will need to retweak your device but it can help fix keyboard glitches.

    Try backing it up in iTunes, then restoring software. Back up first, though.
    If problem is still there, then you may have to take this to a higher level. http://www.apple.com/support/ipodtouch/
    If you STILL can't get an answer from those people, then go to an Apple Store and talk with a Genius

  • Iphone external speaker doesn't work

    My Iphone 3GS external speaker will not work. I have tried cleaning the headjack port many times and did not help. I have even went as far as replacing the speaker assembly itself and it still is inoperative. When I unplug the headphones, the volume goes down on the screen as if it recognizes the release of the headphones, but the speaker will not work on the phone or as an ipod. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    This is more specific and perhaps smaller issue than those centered on the headphone jack (probably not involved in this case). Rather than having only external audio problems, the base port/connector part of handset is central in this issue - giving the nearly constant "not made to work with iPhone" airplane mode dialog box. (Always on power up, and frequently at all times unless in the charger stand specifically.)
    Although one user has claimed in several forums that he resolved it by blowing out/cleaning the charger plug, the Genius who exchanged mine indicated he thought these two problems together indicated something more than that. I was able to get another new phone within the 14 day return policy.
    Don't mess around with the audio jack if you are having the airplane message AND loss of external speaker exactly as originally described here Your phone is only as good as the jacks in terms of longevity, don't wiggle and stress the connectors - take it to Apple directly for repair of this hardware problem.

    I had this exact problem - but the headphone plugin/remove thing just wasn't working at all for me! So i looked into other issues that would cause it and why the headphone thing is working for some people.
    The problem is hardware, inside the headphone jack there is a short that is sometimes caused by the headphones going in at funny angles. I fixed this (and I'm not suggesting you do this) was get one of my girlfriends bobby pins and push the sides of the headphone jack back from the inside (i.e. inserting the bobby pin and moving it around a bit). This has permenantly fixed the issue. So it seems that the issue is hardware and I have a perfectly working iphone again
    Once again, this is not a "pretty solution" but it does work!

  • External display won't work on Window

    Hi can anyone please help me in this? when I using window XP, my external display won't display out but when I'm using MAC OS X it work well, why? please help... Thanks

    I can only help if you are using an NVidia graphics card, as with that you can use the NVidia Control Panel to setup the external display.
    Connect the display
    Start NVidia Control panel
    Select the Display icon
    Then select Change Display Configuration
    There you can set the resolution, extend the screen or create a copy et.c.
    Hope that helps...

  • External links won't work once published

    Hi, I'm self taught so don't always understand everything and I'm a complete novice with iWeb, used Front Page before getting a Mac.
    I'm in the process of building a new website using iWeb and I'm having problems with getting links to external pages to work.  They work fine in iWeb.  'Enable as a hyperlink' and 'make hyperlinks active' is ticked for all links.  I've formatted the links to be coloured red, then orange when visited and blue with an underline on roll over, grey if disabled. All works fine in iWeb but then when I publish the links won't work.  They will momentarily and then they won't.  If I refresh the page then one or two will work but when you go back to the page they won't work again.  I've deleted them all and redone them, still the same problem.  Tried it in Safari and Firefox, same problem.  Deleted the site from the server and republished, same problem.  Anyone got any ideas?
    On the page in question I have a widget to SkyScanner, thought that was maybe causing a conflict.  Deleted it and republished, same problem.
    Here's a link to the page I'm having problems with http://www.marbella-rentals.co.uk/MarbellaRentals/flights.html and it's the links to airlines on the right that I can't get to work.
    Also I have another couple of questions.  How do you resample images?  I have used a background image on the pages and I've managed to get it to stay static by altering the code slightly but don't know how to resample it so that the page will load quickly.  Ditto with all the rest of my images.  Don't want to have to resize them all manually if possible.  Also, with the background image I don't know what size I should make it if I was to do it manually.
    Last question... How do you change the title of your page and add a favicon?
    If anyone can help me would be much appreciated.
    Thanks

    You have an image covering some of the hyperlinks - GraphPaper_01_3.png
    Do a Command A on the iWeb page to find it.
    Your background image seems to load OK. Use an optimizer to to get it and the whole site to download faster...

  • External Mouse Won't Work

    Whenever I plug in an external mouse via USB, it never works. I have tried Apple mouses and non-Apple mouses but none of them work. The only mouse I can get to work is my Apple wireless mouse via bluetooth. And I have tested the USB ports with USB drives and the USB ports do work properly. Just mouses that won't work. I have rebooted into the boot menu and the mouse works there but not in Mac OS X which is why I think it's a software issue. Can anyone point me in the right direction?

    Make a new account and see if the mouse works in that account. If it does, go to /Users/(yourusername)/Library/Preferences and delete com.apple.driver.AppleHIDMouse.plist. Don't see why it shouldn't work.

  • External speakers won't work

    The only time I can listen to music is through my Bluetooth. The external speakers don't work on my 4s. I have to start playing the song and in the lower right hand corner of iTunes it give me the option to switch between my Bluetooth or Dock Connector. When the Bluetooth isn't connected I get nothing. I've looked at every setting possible and even compared the settings to my husbands 4s. What should I do?

    Andrew Miller6...
    Are you shure that you connected it to the "headphone port"?
    That is the sound out port, as the other is an input port for a microphone.
    Other than the obvious maybe it has some incompatable tip on the jack. Test it with a known good set of headphones.

  • Ear speaker won't work after screen replacement.

    A few weeks ago I dropped my iPhone and cracked the screen. I ordered the replacement screen from ebay and did the repair myself today. Everything went smoothly except now the ear speaker does not work. Everything else works fine, I just am forced to have speakerphone on during calls.
    When I open the phone back up to try to fix it, what should I be looking for? Any ideas what I should do?
    Any sort of help would be much appreciated.

    my ear speaker wont work now either...but mine is water damage...let me know if u find anything out cause i dont wsant to pay 200 to get a refurbished phone when it would cost me less to just fix the ear speaker

    Hi just awhile ago my iphone has lost noise on its external speaker my mute is set to where it makes noise i restored it and when i turn up the volume it does not say head set mode i also have 4.2.1 software
