  • Is it possible to get a refund if i bought an album with extremely bad sound quality?

    As asked in the title, is it possible to get a refund if i bought an album with extremely bad sound quality?
    I am very unsatisfied with my latest purchase of the album "Never take ffriendship personal" by "Anberlin" ...
    I can find all the songs in much better quality, even on YouTube ...
    I bought two other albums by Anberlin at the same time, on which the sound quality is much much better and perfectly clear.
    is it possible to get some sort of refund ???

  • Bad sound in my x-fi audio after windows upd

    I have accidentally downloaded this @ windows update on tuesday?
    Creative - Sound - Creative X-Fi Audio Processor (WDM)Creative Sound sofware update released in June, 2007?
    After that all my sound options were gone and i have a terrible bad sound.
    Is there anyone who can help me to solve is this problem?
    I am running win xp

    If you need to remove entries from the registry it's not as bad as some people make it to be. You do have to be very careful because it can disable your system. First go to the Device Manager and uninstall your sound card. Go to Start Menu and click on RUN, enter "regedit" and hit OK. Click on the + tabs by My Computer then HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE.
    Make?a backup copy?by going to the FILE tab at the top and select the Export option. Name the file HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE and save?it to your desktop. You can use this file to restore your registry to?it's original state?if needed.
    Now click SYSTEM and then CurrentControlSet then click on and highlight Services. Go back to the top?and under the Edit tab select Find. Enter "Creative" in the box and then click on the Find Next tab. This will find any reference to the word Creative. Any time you find a reference delete the folder that the reference exists in. Go back up to the Edit tab after each time you delete a folder and click the Find Next tab and it will search for the next reference. Do this until you find all references in the Services folder. This should remove all the drivers for your Creative sound card but will also remove any drivers for ALL Creative products on your computer. If you only have the sound card this won't be a problem. Close the Registry Editor and restart you computer. You should be able to reinstall your card with the original CD or the driver of your choice. If you don't use the CD you'll have to tell Windows where to find the drivers. Restart your system a couple of times to make sure all your services load and it runs as it should. When your satisfied that all is Ok you can delete the file you saved to your desktop. ?Just be very careful what you delete and you will be OK. If this doesn't work you may have to format the hard dri've and start from scratch. Good luck.

  • No/Bad sound with Win7 RC (64bit); X-fi Extreme Music.

    Hi!
    I got a hold of the Windows 7 RC (x64) Build 700?and since then have tried many different drivers (both beta and stable and even daniel's support packs)?with no result. At first when i reboot my computer i get a pretty bad sound at startup when i play a mp3 song or open a video, the sound dissapears totally after 3-4 seconds?(and the video starts lagging without any sound). Got a HP nforce 430 motherboard with the X-fi Extreme?music card with 4gig ram. Anyone mind helping me that have got things to work out with the same setup?

  • Nokia Purity (in-ear) - the solution to bad sound ...

    I read a lot of review about bad sound on the Nokia Lumia phones but I tried various hifi headphones on it and it was amazing. The main issue is that you cannot equalize the sound to match your headset. I wanted a headset with controls and microphone that could match my hifi headphones, and I decided to try these. The packaging is amazing and the design matches the Lumia 800 (black) and everything feels high quality. There are many shapes of earpads for them to match your ears. 
    I first tried the ones that are already on them, and I found the bass too high. Then I changed the pads and got too little bass. Then I tried some pads in between and the sound is perfect 
    So even if you cant change the bass on the phone itself, you now can by changing the pads on the headset.
    I will comment more on sound quality as they get "broken in".

    Smiley,
    What you suggest isn't really a SOLUTION to bad iDVD photo quality, because you aren't creating a DVD that can be played back with a DVD player.
    You are simply suggesting an alternate approach for distributing slideshows which requires the receiver have a computer. iPhoto/iMovie give you several options on prepairing slideshows/movie for various methods of distribution (CD, email, etc).
    Some DVD players will also play jpg files from a CD or DVD and that avoids the mpg-2 compression quality loss, but a TV set image is still a TV set image.
    which gives you over 90 pictures for a 10 MB slideshow
    A lot of email programs aren't happy with a file that size, and of course, since you have created a QuickTime movie, your PC friends will also need to install QuickTime. The Flip4Mac Studio application will let you convert your QuickTime movie to a WMV movie for those with PCs.
    I'm glad you found an approach that you are happy with.
    If you open the file in Quicktime and got to Window > Show Movie Info, you will see that it lists each JPEG within the package, along with a transition component. It doesn't compress the images into a video file, but rather references the original images within the .Mov package
    BTW, there are several different CODECs that can be used in the .MOV file container - Photo JPEG is just one.
    QuickTime Pro offers more saving options than the standard version, so I recommend you invest in QuickTime Pro. You will be able to create your slideshow directly in QuickTime Pro.

  • Very bad sounding noise.

    Today I turned my computer on and was greeted with a very bad-sounding noise coming from the top-left of the computer, right under the escape key. It sounds like a motor running, but i've never heard it before. Just to clarify, this is a macbook pro with the click button.

    Go to this apple website:
    https://selfsolve.apple.com/GetWarranty.do
    and put in your serial number.
    To get your serial number click the apple in the top left corner of the menubar. then click about this mac. Then click the button that says more info. your serial number should be listed there!
    FYI - that definitely sounds like a bad fan, Ive had the same problem before!
    Hope this helps.

  • Bad Sound Issues, not Sure what to do here..

    It seems my mac is having some terrible sound output problems. Since this my first home mac, it's the first I have to troubleshoot on my own and I'm not quite sure what the problem is. But here's what it's doing:
    Using iTunes, the music playback is crap. It sounds very, very full of static and is unbearable to listen to. Though uf I put in a dvd or even watch something from itunes, or a movie through itunes, the sound is great. I've got two little Bose companion speakers, I small monster cable for the rca's and the 1/8" into the headphone jack. The speakers themselves sound perfectly clear when the "audio of my mac's choice" is something which plays back well. This issue I have brought up on the forums before. But it's went a little further, and I thought someone could figure out the problem.
    I installed World of Warcraft - a game I like to play for about 2 hours a week - and when the title screen popped up it looked beautiful in 24" i-Mac glory. The sound was loud and the music was crystal clear - then the sound effect of some fire kicked in - and that sound effect was intolerable to the ears. Sounded like bad short-wave radio on it's wost night. Very crackly, full of static. When I get in game, the background music is beautiful, but all spell effects / voice / or action sound is coming out as terrible. So I thought, "Okay, lets unplug the speakers and use the macs internal speakers." Did that and had the same effect, only sounded worse on the internals. All sound effects and EQ's sturned off in itunes.
    Sorry for the long interlude, but that's whats going on I can't make heads or tails of why 'some' audio is fine and 'some' is not.
    I'm also getting a "phazed sound" as posted by another user on here. Tends to fade left to right, not keep the audio centered, weirds me out, and again makes this beautiful piece of machinery sound like a gameboy. The first one.
    Is this a warranty issue?
    Bad sound card?
    Is there a setting I'm missing here?
    If it were a bad card, do I send it to Apple or take it to the Apple Store in Best Buy where I purchased the iMac, to the "I-have-no-idea-what-a-mac-is-or-how-it-works -- here, buy a monster cable for $40 and your problems are solved." guy?
    Should I buy something that has digital in sound, fearing having the same results since It's not the speakers? (Probably not, hmm )
    Any and all help much appreciated. It's driving me nuts here, music and sound is my life and1/2 the reason this machine was purchased.
    Merry Christmas to all of you!

  • Audigy 2 ZS sound from USB headphones but none from speakers

    <Audigy 2 ZS sound from USB headphones but none from speakersw Hello everyone. Lately my computer has been acting up a bit (HP xw6200 workstation) and I updated the graphics and sound drivers to fix the issues with crashing. I first tried to update the audio drivers from the Creative support website but when the installation was finished and the computer restarted there was no longer any sound and all of the volume controls stopped working (sliders, buttons, checkboxes, etc. turned gray). I tried a couple more times to uninstall, then reinstall the driver but it still didn't work. Finally I went to the HP support website and downloaded the audio driver from there and installed it. Now the volume controls work again and when I plug in my Logitech USB headset I can hear sound just fine but when they are unplugged and I try to use my desktop speakers there is no sound at all. I played around with the volume controls, made sure the device and output was correct, and plugged the green output cable to the speakers in all of the sockets I could find while playing a song on Windows Media but it still doesn't work. Anybody have an idea of what might be going on and how to fix it's

    @? OK another update (sorry I know I'm posting a lot). I downloaded and installed a different driver from the Creative support site and I now finally have sound in my speakers again. BUT the original problem I was having came back. Whenever I play a game (lately it's been Warcraft III) that seems to have more advanced 3D sound (more than, say, a web video on YouTube) the screen will all of a sudden turn some really weird pattern, the sound will stop, and the entire computer freezes; I then have to manually shut down (with the power button), wait a few seconds, then reboot. I thought this was a graphics issue so I downloaded and installed the latest driver for my video card (nVidia Quadro FX) which didn't help. Now I think it might be a sound card issue (or maybe motherboard?) because this problem doesn't happen when I use my USB headphones to play games. Might my sound card be dying or "breaking" somehow?

  • Bad sound audiobooks

    hey before ther vere no problems by lisening too soundbooks om my pc .but now when im lisening too an audiobook from cd bay using ithuns i have a bad sound .
    when im using msi dvd program ther is no probleme
    pleace help my
    lars

    IMO, the decision to upgrade your existing stereo system should not be determined by this unless the only time you use your stereo system is to play iTunes music wirelessly.
    When playing music wirelessly, is your ibook a good distance from the AE Base Station and/or do you have a strong signal from the Base Station?
    Since they aren't very expensive, you might try purchasing a different cable - preferably a Monster cable.
    I'm not sure where else the problem lies.

  • Audigy 2 OEM sound quest

    I have a Audigy 2 value oem sound card.
    Do anyone have a audigy 2 value sound card? Do you guys experience hissing noise on this card? Also I feel this card cannot take high level treble signal in music, even with my Sennheiser PX00. This is suppose to be a good head phone. I feel audigy 2 value is even not as good as the onboard sound. Is this because of this particular piece of card I have or it's because audigy 2 value suck?

    Hello
    I have the same card Too.
    i have no problems with hissing. My problems are in very different aspects. With very low level of background effects in some games ( UT2004, Colin Mcrae 04) Infact with all games i have tried on My PC. These effects are weak in EAX console too. All other sounds are good.
    I have problems with Dolby Digital EX decoder too. When I play DVD-Video I've heard sound only from rear speakers. when I check the field to hear rear speakers from rear and side speaker it is no effect.
    I don't know wath to do. I have usin latest di'vers, eax console, and winXP SP2.
    Thanks in advance!!!

  • Audigy 2ZS - No Sound!

    For Christmas I got the audigy 2 ZS sound card for my 5. Altec Lansing Speakers. I booted up my computer and detected new hardware and installed it automatically and boom I had sound. Then I put in the audigy 2 ZS cd to install eveything and then asked to reboot so I did... then when windows started up I heard the windows start up tune and then it cracks out and I have no more sound. Can't listen to anything. I've tried several time unistalling the drivers and starting from scratch and the same thing always happens I get no sound after completely installing everything. I've noticed a number of people with this problem and I think Creative should finally help us out and give us a solution. I know its not the speakers as I've tried them on another system. Please help me out I've been struggly the past 2 days to try and get this to work and I'm getting tired of it...
    Thanks,
    Andrew

    Hey,
    The only thing i coudl think that might be the problem is when you installed the software and it asked you if you wanted "digital out sound" you selected it and continued with the instalation. That would prevent any sound coming out unless you are plugged into the digital port on you sound card.
    Go into speaker settings in the creative folder from the start bar and make sure the digital sound box is unticked.
    Let us know if this fails
