Loading sound settings in ga

I am running Windoes Xp with Audigty 2 zs. When I play games like Halo I don't get all the sound settings like environmental sound. How can I have all the sound settings turned on so I can use the card I have? Is there some settings I need to do from my sound card to turn them on or is it in the game?

Not having that problem but the only thing that comes to mind is that when the Mac is ready to read your old Sound Settings, it could be that for some reason the driver for your external sound device hasn't loaded yet, so your computer can't see it, and defaults to something else.
Now, with that said, I've got a few different M-Audio external audio devices, and have never had this particular problem.
Just out of curiosity, what device do you have? Do you have the latest driver? Past that, I'd create a 2nd user with admin privileges, log into that account, set the sound the your external device, shut down, and re-start and see if the same thing happens.
Is your external device turned ON before you start up your Mac? Could be it takes longer to initialize and isn't being seen by your Mac at the right time during the start up process.....
Just my 2¢'s worth....

  • [Flash CS6] Understanding odd animation disparities relating to sound settings?

    Hello. This is related to something that I am currently experiencing whilst working in Flash Pro CS6. I hope this is the right forum for this; it's labelled CC but there does not appear to be a separate discussion space for older versions of flash.
    I'm relatively new to the software in terms of experience, and was wondering about some odd behavior I've been seeing, wherein qualities in the animation differ with respect to my sound settings. This isn't a problem that needs fixing, per-se, as it's mostly just down to timing issues, but I would like to understand this behavior so that I know what to expect in the future.
    I have a fairly complex flash animation with multiple scenes, some actionscript-controlled objects and musical accompaniment. This music runs throughout the entire animation, and the animation is synchronized loosely with the music. Oddly, I have recently noticed that, depending on the settings which I choose to apply to this music track, the visual component of the animation behaves differently. I should add that, in the flash editor, my music and animation are synchronized perfectly.
    If I set the music to "Stream", and render as a flash file, then several sections of the animation lag horribly. The synchronization between music and animation remains exact, but I see horrible jerky movement on screen. If I set the music as an "Event" sound and then render, however, not only is the music (understandably) much better quality but this lag disappears. However, for some reason, on one particular scene of the animation, where the lag during "streaming" is most severe, the sequence of timeline events appears to slow down with respect to the music. You must understand that this scene is contained within it's own movie clip, placed directly onto the timeline with only a few fade transition objects on the layers over it. The content within this movie clip plays entirely lag free and at the correct speed, as does the rest of the flash, but the scene/movie clip remains on the screen for far longer than previously with respect to the music, despite it being synchronized perfectly on the timeline. The fade transition events on the layers above the movie clip also occur later than they are scheduled, as if the "scrolling line" on the timeline were moving more slowly over the movie clip, despite the apparent lack of lag.
    Of course, I can solve these problems by setting the sound as an event sound whenever I export to a flash file, and reducing the length of the scene manually until it lines up with the music in the render. However, I would like to better understand how my sound settings are affecting animation lag and timings. Presumably setting the sound as an "event" pre-loads it before the flash - is this also causing the rest of the flash to pre-load, hence removing the lag? Will this increase the time that my exported animation takes to load in it's preloader screen? Why are the timings affected by setting the sound to "Event", especially seeing as there is no visual lag or jerkiness and it only occurs when playing this one movie clip?
    Any answers to these questions would be most welcome.
    Thank you for any responses.

    I've moved your question to the Flash Pro CC forum.

  • Gnome Shell sound settings

    Sometimes when I log in the sound settings disappear (the applet is still visible upper right) and I am unable to control the volume. I've searched around a bit and haven't been able to find any problem similar or what search terms would help me find this.
    When I'm having this problem the top volume bar is grayed out and no devices appear in the selection box. I can post an image next time it happens.
    Originally I thought perhaps it's a pulseaudio thing, but I've only alsa. Plus, this seems more Gnome related.
    Thoughts?

    To make this more interesting, I am trying to troubleshoot an echoing issue I have when using softphones and other voice communication software.  When callers talk and I use "speakerphone" mode, they can hear themselves.  I manually loaded PulseAudio's noise-cancel module and afterwards a device named "Built-in Audio Stereo (echo cancelled with Build-in Audio Analog Stereo)" showed up in the Gnome Sound Settings list.  If I unload that module the device disappears and I am back to  nothing showing in the Input list.

  • How to connect sound or audio to my tv using hdmi adapter. I tried to connect thru sound settings but my tv is not found.

    how to connect sound to my tv set using hdmi adapter. Im using 2009 macbook pro 13". I went to sound settings then output and it shows internal speaker built- in, it wont locate my tv set. pls. help, thanks

    You probably can't because it looks like your MacBook Pro is too old to carry audio over HDMI. You will need to run a separate audio cable from the audio out port on the MacBook Pro to the audio in port on the TV.
    Check your MacBook Pro model year against the list in this Apple tech note:
    About Mini DisplayPort to HDMI adapters
    Learn about the Mini DisplayPort in the latest Mac models that enables audio and video output for DisplayPort and HDMI.

  • How can i import an mp3 to a Notification Ringtone under the "Sound Settings"?

    how can i import an mp3 to a Notification Ringtone under the "Sound Settings"? (i can do it to "Phone Ringtones" easy, but not Notifactions)

    This might work as well and will allow drag and drop of mp3 files. This is written as if the phone is connected to the computer.
    In the sd card, check if there is a folder called media. In the media folder verify or create a folder called audio. Within the audio folder create the following folders: alarms, notifications, and ringtones. These should be typed exactly as written. Copy or move the files into the folder you want them in. Disconnect the phone from the computer and let the remount the sd card. Now go into your notification or ringtones list. The files you put into the individual folders should automatically be there.
    I know that this works on the Eris and I got the method back when only the eris and droid 1 was available. I just can't remember exactly where I got it. Hopefully it also works for the Droid 1.

    Be nice please.

  • Path Problem: Can't Load Database Settings From  A File

    If perchance you can't find your install Disc, at least try it from the Safe Boot part onward.

  • I cannot hear any songs or movies from my laptop speakers - the headphone port works and a red light is showing? The output sound settings are showing as digital optical only? Any ideas :)

    I cannot hear any songs or movies from my laptop speakers - the headphone port works and a red light is showing from the port? The output sound settings are showing as digital optical only? I used the headphones in the laptop for the first time yesterday and have had this problem ever since. Any ideas

    The internal switch in the audio output port is stuck.  Try inserting the earphone plug a few times.  If no success, try jiggling a tooth pick inside in order to trip the switch.. If still no success, have the technicians at the Apple store genius bar do it for you.
    Ciao.

  • How can I choose ringtones instead of pre-loaded sounds for alarms

    I have a bunch of questions. First, how can I choose ringtones (my last phone had a category called "tones") and other purchased sounds instead of the pre-loaded sounds for my alarms, text message alerts, etc.? Thanks.

    Apple no longer sells ringtones... Besides you never needed to buy them because they're easy to make! All you need is DRM free music (burned from cd, iTunes +). Read this link for instructions:

  • Issues with loud sound settings over headphones.

    My Ipad 2 has been having some issues with the sound settings when I put the volume up loud. When I go past a certain level there is a "popping" sound and the volume cuts out all together.  If I reduce the volume this popping sound happens again and the volume comes back on.
    This only happens through the headphones, and doesn't happen with the external speaker.
    Have I stuffed up one of the settings? Is this an OS update issue or do I need to replace the headphone jack?
    I have reset all the settings, but haven't done a complete restore yet.
    Thanks

  • Why doesn't Twitter & Facebook use the sounds you set in your sound settings?

    When Twitter send a notification, its uses the Apple message sound, instead of the "Tweet" sound that is the default sound in your sound settings. For Facebook, it either sends the same Apple sound, or no sound at. Facebook is supposed to use the "Swish" sound. Does anyone know how to fix  or configure that correctly? I did log in both apps through my settings instead of just using the apps.

    Hi Judy,
    The resource leveling command is not a resource optimization tool.  It's only job is to resolve resource overallocations by delaying tasks.  It will not:
    Change resource assignment units to tasks.
    Ensure the resource is "fully" utilized.
    For example:
    Resource with max units of 100% (the default).
    Task A starts on 20 January until 22 January and the resource is assigned at 75%.
    Task B starts on 21 January until 23 January and the resource is assigned at 50%
    The resource is overallocated on Tuesday (peak = 125%) and Wednesday (peak = 125%).
    Leveling produces this result:
    Project did not drop the assignment to Task B to 25% to allow it to continue while Task A was going on -- it simply delayed B (at 50%) until A was scheduled to finish.

  • Firewire ports conflict with sound settings.

    Hi, Peculiar problem. My sound suddenly switched to being internal speaker only, even though I have decklink HD Extreme card and was using it as my audio output the night before. Narrowed the problem down to anything being plugged in to the firewire ports - FW400 and FW800 ports and drives or even my Mini DV deck. When I plug anything into the firewire ports, trying to get to the sound settings in system preferences hangs, and all sound will only work on the internal speaker. This is a sudden problem and leaves me only being able to plug in esata external hard drives. There is some sort of conflict going on somewhere. Can anybody help?

  • Load sound in java application without use of newAudioClip api.

    In personal java 1.2, (JDK1.1.8), the method newAudioClip is unavailable to load sound. What other api can one use to load sound into the java application in this case?

    there's nothing wrong with the old one, except that it's a api of the applet. If you try to run the applet thru' the java app. (without the browser or applet viewer), the getaudioclip api will fail.
    This is the limitation I am facing, 'cos I am developing in Personal Java1.2 env.
