Volume missing in system tray, mute buttons not working

hi, i just reformatted and installed the latest drivers for my Creative Soundblaster Digital 5. (dell) card, and at first everything was fine..
Now they Icon for sound is missing from the system tray.. My volume dial and mute button no longer work. and yes i have gone in and selected to have it appear in the tray.. that does nothing.
Also, all other sounds are working except for sounds from web browsers.. and I have all the necessary pluggins installed..
thanks creative... great products...Message Edited by maluut on 0-0-2006 05:07 PM

I have a similar problem with my elite pro card and would also like an answer.
I installed the new drivers and now my volume knob does not work nor can I adjust volume with the remote control. The mute button does work though.
Also why such an annoyance as to need the original disc in order to make the control panel work in the system tray? shouldn't driver updates be complete?
Also...what's up with the max volume white noise during the driver install which made my ears ring and nearly blew out my speaker system?

  • Tray Expand button not working

    Dear Expert,
    After the SPS upgrade of SP 21 for java stack, I am facing a issue of Expand button of the tray is not working for the iviews which contain dynamic information such as BI reports etc., Please help me out in this issue
    Regards
    Noel

    Hi Noel,
    The expand button / the tray UI element can be a Webdyn Pro Java Component.
    This does not have to be a iview tray.
    Are you using the BI iView in a separate Portal or are you using Portal Federation ?
    If you have 2 portals, what is the second portal version ?
    Regards,
    Kai

  • Mute button not working on iphone 4

    My mute button on iphone 4 will not work and the sound button letting me know if it's on silent or not will not show up,
    I don't want to have to take it to apple as I won't be able to take it there for a while (+ it's not under warranty) are there any solutions to this problem?

  • Mute button not working

    Hi--
    This is a simple mute toggle button for an mp3 player.
    I first var sound: Sound
    Then I have the function
    //mute the current sound
    function muteSound ()
         if(this.sound.getVolume != 0) this.sound.setVolume(0);
         else this.sound.setVolume(75);
    Then I setup 4 frames in a movieClip, labelled on, onRoll, off and offRoll.
    Then this under button Actions
    // Mute Button
    buttonMute.onRollOver = function()
         if(this._currentframe == 1) this.gotoAndStop("onRoll");
         else this.gotoAndStop("offRoll");
    buttonMute.onRollOut = function()
         if(this._currentframe == 2) this.gotoAndStop("off");
         else this.gotoAndStop("on");
    buttonMute.onRelease = function()
         if(this._currentframe == 2)
              this.gotoAndStop("on");
              this._parent.muteSound();
         else if(this._currentframe == 4)
              this.gotoAndStop("on");
              this._parent.muteSound();
         else
              this.gotoAndStop("off");
              this._parent.muteSound();
    This all works graphically, the sound mutes the first time, and the graphics do change, but the sound never unmutes.
    Because I was asked before, here is a copy of the whole file:

    I think you should call the getVolum like this
    function muteSound ()
         if(this.sound.getVolume() != 0) this.sound.setVolume(0);
         else this.sound.setVolume(75);

  • Volume and mute button not working

    The external mute and volume buttons have stoped working on my desktop touchscreen. Any ideas?

    Nevermind. Fixed it by going to System Preferences > Keyboard >  Check Use all F1, F2, etc. keys as standard function keys

  • Mute button not working on brand new Thinkpad T61

        I searched a lot of websites but everyone that had this problem was running linux.
    I bought the thinkpad with Windows XP.
    I'm a little surprised at the lack of quality control at Lenovo.
    Since I specifically liked this mute feature, is the problem fixable or should I get it repaired under warranty?
    Thanks

    Very strange indeed. You seem to be experiencing exactly what the OP in this thread wanted, but he was experiencing what you want, if that makes sense
    I would suggest, as a first course of action, re-installing the HotKey drivers from c:\swtools\drivers\hotkey. It may be that the set-up requires you to uninstall them first.

  • Iphone 4 volume buttons not working

    iphone 4 volume and mute buttons not working, checked all settings they are all fine and when headphones in it works??? When I take out headphones the volum buttons do not work, when phone rings or text receives only vibrates???? HELP!!!!

    This could be due to some debris or dirt inside the  headphones jack that makes the iPhone think that the headphones are connected even when they are not.
    Try to see if you can clean the jack being very careful, with canned air as sold in electronics store.  Some people have been successful by introducing and withdrawing the headphones jack several times in a row to displace whatever is in there if it is lodged in.
    Avoid introducing anything else like a pointed object.  You could damage the jack.
    If all of this does not work, I would try first resetting the phone by holding the home button and the power button together for about 15 seconds or until the whilte apple appears, then waiting until the phone resets.  If the problem continues after this, take it to an Apple Store to see what they believe should be done.

    Have you tried the standard fixes:
    - Reset:
    Reset iPod touch:  Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
    button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Restore the iPod from backup via iTunes
    - Restore the iPod to factory defaults/new iPod.
    If still problem you likely have a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genus Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • Lumia 720 volume down button not working

    Hey buddies, I'm using lumia 720 and often i get this volume down button not working.
    I changed the button by giving it in nokia care for 3times and still im facing the same problem.
    And also noticed that this is happening to most of the lumia 720's.
    so kindly look into it and rectify the problem as soon as possible.
    If there is any solution for this, kindly reply me.
    Thanks in advance...!

    Your only solution would be to return the unit back to nokia care for inspection,if there is a recurring issue with this im sure nokia would be aware of it now,and it could be a slight manufacturing defect which again would be looked into.
    If  i have helped at all a click on the white star below would be nice thanks.
    Now using the Lumia 1520

  • Volume button not working after update ios..

    My iphone 4s volume down button not working after i upgrade to ios 6.0...and then i update to ios 6.0.1 its still not working...plz help...what happen...???

    Settings > Sounds > Change with Buttons... Make sure this is set to ON.
    Basic troubleshooting from the User's Guide is reset, restart, restore (first from backup then as new).  Try each of these in order until the issue is resolved.
    If none of the above resolves the issue, take the device to Apple for evaluation or possible replacement.

  • How to add a minimize to system tray icon button?

    how can i add a minimize to system tray icon button near the others common buttons usually found on the upper right window bar? (i mean near the _ [] X)
    _ for minimize to taskbar
    [] for maximizing
    X for closing
    i'd like to add a fourth button to the left of the _ button for minimizing to system tray
    like in many programs the fourth button is a dot shaped one that minimizes the program to system tray
    i'd like to add one to my program as well, but i didnt find anything about this kind of buttons neither on google nor on java books
    can anyone help me?
    thank you!

    You can't (easily). The window decorations are controled by the operating system. Your best bet is to change the functionality of the minimize-to-taskbar button and make it into a minimize-to-tray button. In fact, all the programs that minimize to the tray on my computer - about 6 of them - do it this way.
    like in many programs the fourth button is a dot shaped one that minimizes the program to system trayI've never seen this?

  • My iphone randomly mutes. Side mute button not on.  Mute not highlighted.

    Does anybody know what could be causing my iphone to randomly mute.  Side mute button not on.  Mute not highlighted.  Happens on incoming and outgoing calls.  Sometimes during an ongoing call, sometimes when call is first made or received.

    Exactly my case, too. Unfortunately no response at all - the only thing I can find on the web are discussions that your ear might touch the MUTE button - but it is definitively not the case. As Susan writes, the mute button is not highlighted, pressing it does not change anything.
