Cannot fix audio no matter what.

I have a HP g7 notebook
Product #: C2M31UA#ABA
For some odd reason I've been having trouble with my audio, I did searches on how to fix it. I tried doing the following
Uinstall driver, restart, reinstall driver - still doesn't work
Clean boot - still not working
Restarting Windows Audio - still not working
I also read that clicking playback devices and selecting my default sound devices properties and going to the advanced tab and unclicking Allow applications to take exclusive control over this device which still hasn't worked.
Now I went into device manager and under sound, video, and game controller there are two devices which are:
-IDT High Definition Audio Codec-
-Intel(R) Display Audio-
I don't know if these two are colliding with one another or not. Now I did run RegInOut System Utilities a day or two ago and I clicked on Service Manager and optomized it, I don't know if this is the cause for my Audio problems. I also tried updating to Windows 8.1 which ran into a problem and did a system restore the other day as well. But my Audio will work like say I'm playing a video right after I restart my laptop and the audio will work but if I pause the video then come back to it there is no audio then the video will crash saying "An error occurred, please try again later" so I have no idea what is wrong with my laptop, I've never experienced this problem before. So if anyone has any helpful insight on what's going on with my laptop that would be great. Thank you.
*Update* So I went into device manager and I disabled -Intel(R) Display Audio- and I restarted my laptop, surprisingly enough that seems like this was causing the issue, I don't know if this driver is supposed to even be installed on my laptop because I couldn't find it on HPs driver downloads for my laptop. So everything is working now and hopefully that's the end to it.

Hi dustin93,
Thank you for your post.
I am glad that you were able to resolve your issue.  Any recommended drivers will be listed for your notebook on the  HP driver and download page.
 Your display  must also have audio. When Windows installed that driver, you had a conflict with the two cards. By disabling the display driver, you eliminated the conflict and as you stated it is now working. You will need to keep this disabled. 
One good thing is that you now know that if the audio on the motherboard should every fail, you can use the audio on the display.

  • Itunes match; a) if incorrect genre etc data has been uploaded to icloud, cannot delete it or replace the track/ data b) now have 9k tracks "stuck" in icloud and cannot delete them no matter what I do. eh?

    Hi
    I;m having so itunes match issues.
    I ran itunes match. I';ve since foumd, I think:
    a) if incorrect genre etc data has been uploaded to icloud, I cannot find how to delete it and reupload correct song and data. I am presently assuming that once songs are matched, the meta-data, genre, etc etc thats uploaded is now treated as 'the master' by itunes.
    Question: if I want to change the genre on a track, whats the correct way to overwrite the data held in the icloud? if I delete the track i just bring down the old incorrect genres again!
    b) I've deleted from the icloud all my music tracks (select all, delete, Y to delete tracks from icloud). I have turned off itunes match on my ipad, iphone, appletv mac and windows pc. I've deleted the itunes library files too from mac and pc in desperation. But hours /days later, when I turn on itunes match on mac or pc, it tells me i still have 9k tracks in icloud. All with the old, wrong meta-data ready to mess up my [now-corrected]  files back on my pc!
    I cannot delete them no matter what I do. The number of tracks in the cloud was 12k, now 9k so its reducing, by about 1500 tracks a day.
    does it really take itunes servers that long to delete the tracks I've asked it to delete, or am i seeing garbage data?
    is there a quicker way of deleting all my itunes match library, songs and data?

    Thanks for the helpful replies.
    My original intention was to 'upgrade' some of my tracks. In those cases, I'd iTunes matched, and the process was completed.
    I later downloaded those new tracks but found during that process, the tracks I was downloading had the old metadata.
    I guess the idea there is to update the local genres, 'update iTunes match' and wait. How long, I don't know but that's the current solution,yes ?
    Thing is I was trying to get my local library updated and, as I thought it, back in order, but was finding my local genre updates were being overwritten. I had a lot of tracks that kept on stating they could be downloaded so I thought the new files hadn't been copied down...
    I think I was trying to get match to do too many things at once.
    Deleting my tracks in the cloud? Was an act of desperation to start over with all known good genres locally and to re- upload, start over. I'd read in some forum or other to do that, I guess that was wrong,
    Ok so I will.. Err,
    A  wait and see how long it takes to delete my tracks in the cloud ie let it complete the process I'd already started.
    B  Correct my local tracks genres
    C  Wait til those changes propagate up to the iCloud ( or whatever the right term is)
    Q1: How long should I wait for A and C to complete?
    Q2: Is it 100% definite that local genre changes will get copied up to the cloud, when I 'update iTunes match'?
    I don't see any animated cloud icon, but I will watch for it!
    Thanks again

  • Cannot Enter Text - no matter what I do, I don't get the blinking curser

    No matter what I do, after I get my bounding box drawn, the blinking cursor doesn't appear.  I've set the font so huge, it should.  I've entered text in images before so I cannot for the life of me figure out what's going on.

    Welcome to the forum.
    You are in Titler, aren't you?
    When you have created the Text Box, do you still see the Text Tool selected?
    What font have you chosen?
    What is the font's Size?
    Good luck,

  • No audio no matter what I connect it to...it is an old IPod..maybe it something wrong with it

    No matter what I connect my old ipod to, I;m not getting audio...songs play, etc...but no audio.  could it be the connector? 

    If you have not already, do a Reset (restart) of the iPod.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1320
    If that does not help, on the iPod''s display, go to Settings, and select the command to Reset Settings or Reset All Settings.  This puts the iPod back to default settings.
    If that does not help, and if all of the songs on the iPod are in your current iTunes library, you can try doing a Restore on the iPod.  The Restore button is on the iPod's Summary screen in iTunes.  This will erase the iPod, reinstall its software, and set it to default settings.  You can then sync content back to the iPod, as desired, and give it a try.
    If the Restore does not help either, then the cause is likely to be something on the iPod.  If you tried multiple headphones, it may be a bad headphones jack on the iPod.

  • HT4623 My iPad refuses to acknowledge any updates beyond 5.1.1! I cannot update it no matter what I try. HELP!

    During a recent "***?!" situation, and the resultant complete restore to factory default, my husband's iPad will not update!
    Fast forward a few weeks when we get our new iMac and though we were instructed to make different users to allow each of us to use our different devices, we still cannot update his. While my iPad2 updates flawlessly, my husband's refuses to acknowledge there is even an update past the 5.1.1! He's frustrated as you all likely know, apps are beginning to require that the pad is updated as well. I'm feeling some guilt here because mine is working.
    Please...help me alleviate my guilt!!

    What model iPad does he have ? If it's a first gen iPad then 5.1.1 is the highest version that it supports

    I have deleted files/folders like it tells you too here, but nothing seems to work.
    Can anyone help?
    Thank you

    right click on the setup file
    run as administrator

    if all fails still, run ccleaner, clean your pc of junk files, scan registry for errors and spyware while your at it.
    can you install another app? meaning will it install anything else or is it just itunes that wont install?
    are you logged in as an admin?

  • I have just updated my iTunes to 11.1.3. I followed all correct steps, restarted my computer etc. But iTunes will now not open no matter what I try and do. Please help me!!!!!!!!

    I have just updated my iTunes to 11.1.3. I followed all correct steps, restarted my computer etc but now I cannot open iTunes not matter what I try and do.
    Very frustrating. Have read the trouble shooting info on Apple website but nothing has worked.
    Someone please help. I cannot access any of my music.

    Open Finder. Go to the "Go" menu in the menu bar. Press and hold Control and click on Library. Go to "Preferences". Find a file named, "com.apple.iTunes.plist" and delete that file. This won't delete your iTunes content. It will reset iTunes. Try it again.

    In case anyone has had the same problem as me, I have just managed to fix this by doing the following:
    Switch off Mac
    Switch back on in Safe Mode (Hit power button, then hold Shift key until a loading bar appears at the bottom of the screen).
    Switch off Mac again
    Remove power cord and wait 15 seconds
    Plug power cord back in and hold down the keys alt, cmd, p, r all at the same time until you hear Starting chime for a second time and hopefully your audio will back.

    My iPod Touch is stuck in the past. No matter what I do or change, the date always reverts back to December 31, 1969. I wouldn't mind hanging out on New Years Eve in 1969 with all the hippies listening to Jimi Hendrix and Jim Morrison but let's face it, It's 2011 and I'd like to bring my iPod into this century. The version that's installed is 4.2.1, and even after syncing, it still is living in the past. Does anyone know how to fix this? Even when I try to adjust the date/time manually, it goes right back to 12/31/1969.  Alot of the apps I run won't even open because the date is wrong. I need to get this fixed as soon as possible. Please help me. Thanks.
