Brand new HP Beats Special Edition 15-p030nr Notebook PC , Audio not working correctly

Just bought this computer for me 9/30/14.  Volume is at 100% and while there is some sound, you can barely hear it.  I have checked drivers, device manager etc and nothing seems to change it.  I need to know if this is a defect in the system or if there is something else I can do.  I hate to think we paid all this money for the computer, one reason being the Beats audio, and have it not work.  I will return it if I cannot get it working.

  • HP Beats Special Edition 15-p030nr Notebook PC (ENERGY STAR) screen brightness issue

    I'm haing a screen brightness issue on my HP Beats Special Edition 15-p030nr Notebook PC (ENERGY STAR). I upgraded from 8.1 and the F2/F3 keys to dim or brighten screen do not function. Any suggestions besides reverting back to 8.1.? Not sure if I had the screen dimmed all the way or brightened all the way when it was upgrading, or if it even mattered.

  • Brand New iphone5 out of the box... speaker phone not working

    Hi Guys, frustrated & disappointed very much.. brand new iphone5 out of the box, speaker seems to be not working, i checked the volume, silent mode is off.. still no sound from the speaker.. no ringtones, no music via speaker.. however, with headset, sound seems fine..
    please help me out here...

    Auto-focus requires adequate lighting and a subject with adequate contrast.  It may not focus in a very dark room, for example... or a night scene.  It also needs contrast -- for exmaple if you point the camera up into a blue, cloudless sky it wont be able to focus on that either because there's nothing of contrast (the sky looks the same overall "blue" whether in focus or out of focus so moving the focus makes no difference and this confuses the camera.) If, however, you have good lighting (e.g. suppose you're outside on a bright sunny day) then the camera should focus on any normal subject then it should have no difficulty focusing (as long as it isn't a completely plain, featureless subject that offers no contrast.) The camera actually has TWO different focus systems.  If you look through the veiwfinder then the camera uses it's "phase detect" auto-focus system (this is the fastest focus system.)  If you put the camera into "live view" mode so that you use the rear LCD to compose your subject then the camera uses it's "contrast detect" auto-focus system. If neither system works with the lens in auto-focus mode then the most likely cause is a problem with the lens (either the camera is unable to communicate with the lens or the auto-focus motor isn't working, etc.)  It's far more often that this is a lens problem and not a camera problem. If you happen to have another lens, try switching lenses to see if that makes a difference. Are the camera and lens both new?   

  • Adding second monitor to HP Beats Special Edition 23-n010xt All-in-One with HDMI Cable

    Trying to add a second monitor to all-in-one using HDMI cable.  All-in-one is HP Beats Special 23-n010xt, second monitor is Samsung SyncMaster S24B300, Op Sys is Windows 8.1.  Both are connected with HDMI cable, but Windows is not detecting second monitor.  Have also tried a new cable, no success.  Any suggestions?  Thanks in advance.

    Here are the specs for your HP Beats Special Edition 23-n010xt All-in-One CTO Desktop Computer. Based on the specs, this model doesn't have a video output of any kind. The HDMI port on the side is strictly an INPUT.
    The HDMI input allows you to use your computer screen with a game console or video player. To connect your computer to an external display, you will need to purchase a USB-to-video adapter such as the EVGA UV Plus+ UV39 or many other adapters on the market.
    If you have any further questions, please don't hesitate to ask.

  • HP Beats Special Edition 23-n010 Use a Standard Keyboard Driver

    I love everything about the HP Beats Special Edition 23-n010 desktop Except for the keyboard.  I use various programs that use the F1-F12 fiunction keys.  Trying to type Fn-Alt-F4 is no easy feat.  I really don't need all the other special keys on this keyboard.
    How can I replace this system's keyboard drives with a standard Windows keyboard driver.  This system is running Windows 8.1 x64.

    Hello @JohnG0814,
    I understand that you are trying to use the standard keyboard on your HP Beats Special Edition 23-n010 All-in-One Desktop PC. NowI have gone through the User Guide for your computer and found nothing on disabling the HP Keyboard that you have by default.
    I did however find something that may do the trick. In your BIOS which you can get to by restarting and tapping the F10 key you will see under 'Security' a sub-section named 'Secure Boot Configuration' that has a setting for Secure boot > Key Management > Key Ownership. If you go there you can change it to 'Custom keys', which I believe will resolve your keyboard issue. I am posting an image to help below.
    I hope this helps. Thank you for posting on the HP Forums. Have a great day!

  • HP Pavilion p7-1421 Desktop PC BEATS AUDIO not working.

    Hi, new here with thankfully my first problem with the desktop in the subject line.
    Somewhere along the way, the Beats Audio stopped working correctly. The Equalizer
    sliders will not move at all, and the "Test Speakers" button will highlight the left, then right
    speaker, but no sound will be produced.
    For background, I did install StartDoc, a program that gives one back the original Windows 7 "Start"
    button and desktop. Other than that, I have not installed anything, except the reccommended HP upgrades.
    Also, the machine is obviously running Windows 8, and I have NOT switched to 8.1.
    I see on the Notebook page lots of questions re. Beats not working and solutions, but each user is asked
    for the specific model, OS etc. This is why I chose to post a new thread, so that the experts can address
    my exact machine.
    Thanks in advance,
    John
    This question was solved.

    Hi srv1954,
    I suggest reinstalling Beats Audio.
    Open the Charms menu, select "Search".
    Enter "Recovery Manager" and then select Recovery Manager from the list. Click "Yes "at the User Account Control.
    Select "Hardware Driver Reinstallation". Select "Next". Select 'IDT High Definition Audio CODEC".
    Select "Next"
    Follow prompts to reinstall and reboot your PC.

  • Three Point Edit not working correctly :(

    Hi there,
    first of all I'd like to say thank you Adobe for listening to your users. And I hope this one gets noticed right away....:
    It appears that 3 point editing ist not working correctly.
    Right now I'm editing a video and I heavily rely on 3 point editing.
    I have quite a lot XDCAM EX 50i clips which are all in one sequence that is used as source.
    Coming from tape workflows I really don't like clicking clip after clip...I need to edit
    Now fortunately one can choose to either have a sequence as source edited in nested or as individual tracks. Very nice!
    Very bad is that 3 point editing only works when "nested" is activated. Again, very bad!
    As soon as I want to use my source sequence with its individual tracks and hit (.) or (,) just nothing happens. Hmpf!
    Come on guys, that is essential editing stuff, not fancy speech detection blabla...sorry but this is mega-annoying right now....
    It says "Pro" right after "Premiere". So please make it pro! Professionals need ROCK SOLID essential functions.
    Make us editors happy having switched from Avid/FCP etc.
    Make essential stuff rock solid. That's what makes an app "pro".
    Cheers and please mind my harsh words. Just a little upset right now. (I know that's not pro either )

    Hi bmfm,
    I think I know what's going on. The behavior you describe happens when you try to edit back into your original sequence. Can try making a new sequence to cut your selects into? See the page in help for details: http://helpx.adobe.com/premiere-pro/using/edit-sequences-loaded-source-monitor.html

    Hi @M-G-R 
    Welcome to the HP Forums!
    It is a superb place to find answers and suggestions!
    For you to have the best experience in the HP forum I would like to direct your attention to the HP Forums Guide Learn How to Post and More
    I grasp that you are having an issue with your Beats Audio on your new computer.
    Here is a link to the 15-p117na Software & Drivers.  I noticed the recommended audio driver for your notebook is
    sp69618.exe .  Please delete or remove the version you have updated to and install the recommended driver.
    When you installed non recommended drivers as they have not been tested on your system the outcome is unknown.  They may or may not work correctly.
    Here is a link to Beats Audio Console (Windows 8) that will guide you.
    Have you done all your Windows updates?
    Have you ran the HP Support Assistant to obtain any HP updates.
    If you should still have an issue with your new HP notebook please contact HP technical support for assistance.
    They can remotely access your system to help overcome difficulties more easily.
    Please call our technical support at 800 474 6836. If you live outside the US/Canada Region, please click the link below to get a support number for your region.

  • I have recently upgraded from my iphone 5 to a new phone. My iphone 5 's touch screen does not work anymore. I need to backup my phone, but I can't do it on itunes without my password. Everything besides screen is ok. Is there a way around it? :(

    I have recently upgraded from my iphone 5 to a new phone. My iphone 5 's touch screen does not work anymore. I need to backup my phone, but I can't do it on itunes without my password. Everything besides the screen is completely fine-the screen will not recognize my finger anymore. I am not trying to fix the phone, but I need to have my contacts. The pictures have already synced, but I need my password to do a full backup. Unfortunately, I can't type in my password. Is there any way around it? If I take my phone to the apple store, will they be able to help me? I am not willing to replace the screen just to do this, however, so that is out of the question. 

    Someone else may have a workaround, but, as far as I know, if you cannot interact with the screen on the iPhone, there is no way to unlock it so you can get to your contacts.
    Were you saving them to iCloud by chance? If so, you can restore them to your new phone.

Unfortunately on these days I'm in a country that Apple don't have any retail store here and for sake of time I prefer to fix it myself to DHL it to the nearest country to use its warranty.

  • Installed new trackpad...not working correctly

    Hi,
    I just installed a new trackpad and it is not working correctly.  The tap to click is not working and it takes extra pressure to even move the tracking arrow.  Any ideas?

    I have an Apple Magic Trackpad I purchased November 2013.  Since upgrading to 10.9 (Maverick) my trackpad will just stop.  My current workaround: turn my Magic Mouse back on (I set it aside in favor of the trackpad), and my trackpad comes back to life.  I turn off the mouse, and the trackpad continues ... for now.
    Strange, and I have no other answers for you.

  • Since I installed the new OS X Lion, the iCal syncing through iTunes is not working properly.

    Since I installed the new OS X Lion, the iCal syncing through iTunes is not working properly.
    When I sync my MacBook Pro with my iPhone and iPad, the events set in both devices (iPhone & iPad) are not transfered to the iCal on my labtop. Events created in both devices are transfered and copied betwen them when I sync them with the iTunes app (through the MacBook Pro) but they are not trasfered/copied into the labtop (iCal). The events created in the iCal (on my MacBook) are tranfered to the devices as two events on same hour. One, with the description created on the iCal, and the other as a New Event (no description). This is happening since I installed the new OS X Lion last week.
    I file a report and talked with an Apple Support Representative, but they could not help me. They have not receive any other reports on this matter. Do someone has confronted this issue. I need to find out how to solve this problem.
