Cannot get my headphones to work after I closed my laptop.

I have discovered that sometimes when I close for a few hours than reopen my computer the headphone jack will not work.  I do not get a red light it just does not work.  It works again if I restart the whole computer.  I have tried changing other settings but nothing helps.  the 'phones do not even show up in the menu.  I am a mac book pro only a about a year or so old.

  • Cannot get USB port to work after re-installing of SP2 on Satellite Pro L20

    After re-installing XP Home SP2 and downloading all the updates & Drivers from here I cannot get my USB port to work properly, if I have more than one peripheral plugged in it says "Bandwidth Exceeded".
    I have a Behringer BCD2000 which is a souncard/midi controler for DJ mixing, it worked fine before i reinstalled windows, now it clicks and pops when playing tunes, also the ASIO doesn't work when I run Traktor (Dj software) and the program freezes. Any other external sound card wont work either. I've been all through the device manager no conflicts apart from an ! over Serial under hidden devices.
    I'm lost, is my only option buying a PCMCIA sound card, it worked fine before so surely there is a software solution to this?
    If anyone can help I'd be most appreciative.

    Hello
    Try to disable USB Error Detection:
    1. Right-click My Computer and then click Properties.
    2. Select Device Manager to view the Device Manager
    3. Locate and click the Universal Serial Bus Controller entry.
    4. Double-click Universal Host Controller and then click the Advanced tab of the Universal Host Controller Properties.
    5. Put a checkmark in the box for Disable USB Error Detection. Click OK.
    6. Restart the computer to see if "Bandwidth Exceeded" message occurs again
    Did you use recovery media to reinstall WXP? When someone write it worked before and now not it is really not easy to say why this happen. Try to configure notebook as before and maybe it will work again. Behringer BCD2000 is not known to me and I dont know how it works and which software must be preinstalled there.
    Can you use different USB devices like external HDD, USB mouse, USB memory stick or printer?

  • Qosmio F750 - Cannot get some functions to work after Win 8 uprgade

    I own a Qosmio F750-125, PQF75E.
    Since I upgraded to Win 8, utilizing Toshiba Upgrade Assistant I might add, I had some issues.
    Most importantly not being able to get my Toshiba Blu-ray player to install.
    Eventually I managed, still don't exactly how but anyway, to install the latest version 1.0.0.5.70A.
    The problem now is that the 3D function still don't seem to work.
    When I open a 3D movie I only get the picture to display side by side, despite clicking on the 3D button.
    I tried to update the Nvidia driver (v290) to the latest version v314, available on Nvidia site, for for my GeForce GT540M graphics card but every time I get a message that the driver cannot find compatible driver hardware. Eventually from within the upgrade files downloaded by Toshiba Upgrade Assistant I managed to install the v306. I am still however unable to install v 314, after the "system check" I still get the message that the driver can find compatible driver hardware.
    However, the 3D still does not work. I notice that the face detection (SuperD Xtune) does not automatically start with the Blu-ray player when I launch or open a 3D file to be played by the Toshiba Blu-ray player, as it used to.
    How can I get my Blu-ray Player to play my 3D properly again.
    If I open Xtune I am able to calibrate the 3D and then it closes.
    I do not see a app under all apps which seem to have anything to do with the face detection function.
    Is there a setting that need to be changed, an additional driver to be installed or what?
    I am really disappointed with the support I have received from Toshiba themselves on this issue.
    I also wanted to update the BIOS of my laptop.
    My bios version is 2 dating December 2011 but I notice that a newer BIOS is available from Toshiba Website dating February 2012, if I am not mistaken.
    I downloaded that but when I run it I receive a message that my computer is not compatible.
    **bleep** this is frustrating.
    I want to get my 3D function back and be sure to run the latest and most appropriate drivers, at all times.

    Dear Tonny
    Thank you for patiently answering to my posts.
    You are right, despite extensive notes in the Toshiba Step-by-Step upgrade guide and specific mention that the Blu-ray player can only be installed by using the Upgrade Assistant, it is not installed by the Toshiba Upgrade Assistant.
    I am not sure though whether it actually did form part of the downloaded files but never the less I installed it by some miracle manually.
    It did not want to install at first. I received a message that the player could not be found. I noticed that the player is a sMedio Inc player and I then searched sMedio Inc and download their WinDVD Pro player. After that the Blu-ray driver from Toshiba installed.
    I also have it that v1.0.0.5.70A is the latest driver but through my local Toshiba Agent (MUSTEK) I received a driver from Germany and it was 1.0.0.5.48. I have not installed that as yet.
    I am convinced that the problem lies with the interaction between the Blu-ray Player, Nvidia driver and SuperD software.
    I searched my installed files and saw that I have Super D spd2900g and Super D X-tune installed. I uninstalled both and tried to re-install it form the file included in the Toshiba Upgrade Assistant (Super D IC Driver).
    However only the Super D spd2900g part installed and the Super D X-tune part is now missing.
    NOW I am completely BUGGERED because I do not know where to find the X-tune program to reinstall it.
    SuperD's website is very basic, in fact somewhat primitive.
    Thanks you also for the links, I have seen them somewhere and have had regard thereto but they are outdated.
    They relate to much older versions and windows 7 not 8.
    I must be honest, the poor response and support from Toshiba will most definitely lead to me not buying their product again. None of the so called technicians have help me achieve anything. I struggled and figured out everything myself so far.
    I still also have no answer in respect of the BIOS upgrade issue. Is there no one I can contact directly.

  • Cannot get Equium L40-10X working after malware attack

    Hi, I'm new here.
    Only have the Equium Laptop 1 week and it is infected with MalWare. Norton Internet Security was activated and current, but alas the worms won. It displays the message "Windows Explorer has stopped working" during boot attempts. Strangely enough though the registration message of AntiVirGear v3.7 works perfectly.
    I've tried to format the C: partition, run all Safe Mode options, Install Win Vista and XP, Recovery CD install, BIOS tweaks, Windows repair and of course my old friend MSDOS.
    I removed the 120gb hard drive (3 partitions) and tried to pop it into my trusty modular bay so I could do as I wished as another drive, not bootable to harvest my files from the E: partition, then format the thing. But the pins are different though the drives are the same size. So basically I'm stuck with a deadish PC no fault of Toshiba, MS or anybody..
    Except the programming miscreants of AntiVirGear v3.7 who will gladly release my yoke from it's chains provided I give them my credit card information (if they didn't already snatch that). If I do that it will be the beginning of "just one more purchase" and that will surely end my misery... So if anybody here can help I have the hammer and screwdriver ready.
    I've been to Norton Support and they told me to try the things I already tried. And then they gave up, "contact MS". MS doesn't support OEM versions, so here I am.
    Please have a think about this.
    Thanks for listening.

    Hi buddy,
    man, this sounds REALLY...REALLY strange.
    So, for better understanding:
    You have malware on your system (C: drive), you want a working system? Right? But you want firstly secure some of your data?
    Ok, it would be better to grab your hdd, go to the next electronic market and then buy a USB-HDD case. But first check if the pins fit (that was the suggestion to take your drive to the market to check THIS out).
    Connect the USB-HDD to your another system, copy your files and then delete the WHOLE drive. The best would be to try this CD to format and repartition your drive:
    www.ubcd4win.com
    Then after completely removing all partitions, you can drive your recovery and get a working system back.

  • Please help, I cannot get play menu to work after using dynamic link.

    Ok. So I sent a video from premiere pro to encore using dynamic link. Then I created a menu in encore and dragged video to play button I created for the dvd. However, when I burn the dvd, the menu is not a part of the DVD. I do not know why this happens when I use a dynamic linked video. It does not happen when I use other videos. Please help. Thanks Matt

    You need to set the menu to be first play.
    If you create a timeline before you add a menu, the timeline becomes first play. If you set the end action of the timeline to the menu, it will eventually get there, but that does not appear to be what you want.

  • I cannot get GPS Only to work on my ipad3 (4g version, but not on an active cell plan, and wifi off).  Is there some new requirement in 7.1 or 7.1.1 to have cell and/or wifi enabled for GPS to work? I am testing with MotionX

    It seems like I cannot get GPS only to work on my ipad3 (4g version, but not on an active cell plan, and wifi off).  Is there some new requirement in 7.1 or 7.1.1 to have cell and/or wifi enabled for GPS to work? I am testing with MotionX, garmin blueChart mobile, and a GPS monitoring tool. All show no signal. If I turn on cell and wifi,  it says I get gps signal, but can't tell if that is from the GPS chip, or just from cell and wifi only (maybe with some gps mixed in)?  Any ideas on how to get iPad working with GPS only??

  • Cannot get screen sharing to work long distance...

    I set up an AIM account for my mother-in-law so that I could remote screen-share her MacBook and help her with learning how to use it and trouble shoot it (it's a Late 2008 Aluminum MacBook hand-me-down from my wife).
    I've set up the account, but cannot get remote screen sharing working. Screen sharing works fine over bonjour, but no go over the internet using AIM. I can control my wife's MBA from my iMac and vice-versa, but neither of us can control her MacBook. When we choose "Ask to share users screen...", we get the pop up window stating "Waiting for response from user", along with the spinning gear icon. If she chooses "Share my screen with...", the pop up window appears on our Macs and we're able to choose accept. But then the pop up window switches to "User would like you to share his or her screen" and just sits there. Nothing happens. On her screen, she gets the message "waiting for response from user" and nothing else happens.
    After a long wait, my screen will say, "There was a communication error during your chat. Messages didn't receive a response from..." and gives me the option to report the details to Apple.
    What am I doing wrong?
    Her MacBook is running Mavericks, as are our machines.

    Hi,
    @mac.com and @me.com ID works as AIM Screen Names  (you add them like they are and existing name) but only if you are using Messages 7 or 8 plus later versions of iChat 6 in Lion.
    You should be able to use the Apple Issued IDs in Mavericks.
    If you using an AIM Registered name try using it without the @AIM.com or @AOL.com suffix (User Name only)
    As AIM can "read" the Apple Database it will think the Apple IDs exist already but may not tell you that is the reason you can't re-register them.
    Can you post the info being sent to Apple here ?
    However stop the log after about 10 lines of the Binary Images (I will not need it all).

  • Equium A200-196: Cannot get all speakers to work with Creative T7900 home cinema system

    I run windows Vista home premium, on my Toshiba Equium A200-196, and i have a 7.1 Creative T7900 system.
    I cannot get all speakers to work. Only the woofer and two front speakers are currently playing sound.
    The sound option in the control panel doesn't give me any options besides stereo speakers.
    I have no option of selecting 5.1 or 7.1 speakers and i need to know do i need a software driver (all drivers are showing up as up-to-date), or do i have to change some other option, or purchase an external sound card?
    I only have two jack inputs, a mic in and headphone out. How can i get all speakers to work and achieve the home cinema experience?

    Hi there,
    I dont think that the sound card is capable to do 5.1/7.1 since there are many more jacks required then only one "sound-output".
    If I were you I would purchase a external USB-soundcard which is capable to do 5.1 or 7.1 to deliver you the full home-cinema experience.
    Another solution is not existent. Sorry mate.

  • OpenScript & ant ssh - "Cannot get a connection from helper after 120 seconds"

    Hi, I'm trying to run openscript tests (with runscript.bat file) from hudson. I'm connecting to windows XP machine through ssh and executing batch file, but execution of scipt finishes with error "Cannot get a connection from helper after 120 seconds". This error occurs when openscript tries to run test on Internet Explorer. If IE is not nescessary, test finishes with OK. When running batch directly on windows (without hudson and ssh, but on the same user) everything works fine. Has enyone met with such issue ?

    Hi,
    What Jules has suggested should work, but I have also used the following to get scripts working from OTM -
    OATS Application service - run as a user with local admin rights
    helper service - local system
    OATS agent service - set to manual
    Then, run the agent service as a console app -
    1. run a cmd prompt
    2. Run c:\> C:\OracleATS\agentmanager\bin\AgentManagerService.exe -c C:\OracleATS\agentmanager\bin\\AgentManagerService.conf
    3. Execute the script from OTM
    If the agent is running on a machine separate to OTM then the user will have to remain logged in.
    Cheers,
    Jamie

  • I have installed Mountain Lion 10.8.2 but still cannot get email from my work exchange account. I'd appreciate any help.  Thank you.

    I have installed Mountain Lion 10.8.2 but still cannot get email from my work exchange account. I'd appreciate any help.  Thank you.

    You can go to the Apple online store and purcahse a copy of Mountain Lion.  This will give you a redemption code, which you can use to download Mountain Lion from the App Store.  Unfortuantely, I'm not aware of any other way to legally purchase it.  I have never seen Apple release Muontain Lion on DVD.
    In terms of Apple Service, they just need the serial number of the machine to check the purcahse date.  It is usually correct, to within a few weeks.  A quick Google search should give you the correct number to dial.
    I hope this helps.
