Computer does not recognize that I have plugged in a headset?

    I have tried a variety of things, currently I have disabled speakers and headphones such that the sound on my computer flows through my headphones, however I'd like to fix this problem since i ant to use the mic on my headset as well. The headset does not appear on my playback devices. I am using windows 7.

  • My internet accounts preference does not recognize that I have deleted an email address.  It wants to connect to deleted email to send out, HELP

    My email internet accounts does not recognize that I have deleted an gmail account.  It wants to connect before it sends a message.  How do I change this?  I thought I changed all my settings to reflect my new mail address - but I must have missed one.

    That was a bit of a bonehead move.  Did you actually change the email address associated with the Apple ID before deleting the email account?

    Yeah, because the email associated with the Apple ID is deleted and the account is having issue.
    Stop using the new Apple ID.
    Log into the original Apple ID.  Change the email address associated with the Apple ID.
    It should then be possible to update the apps associated with the original Apple ID.

  • Computer does not recognize Iphone 4 is plugged in to USB. Can't transfer pictures.

    My HP laptop always use to recognize my Iphone 4 then all of the sudden stopped. I have been trying to transfer pictures and it does not see that any device or camera is plugged in to it like it use to. I have VISTA on my computer. When I go to My Computer it doesnt show anything is even plugged into the USB port. I tried all 3 ports on the laptop. The Windows help assistant talks about needing a driver..basically a software disc to load any new divice onto the computer. How would I get a driver for the Iphone?? I never needed that before. I could just plug it in and I would get the pop up asking if I wanted to transfer my pictures, etc.  This is so annoying!  I do back up to I Cloud as well.

    Hi..Yes, I Tunes is installed on the computer. I sync with it no problem. I am trying to get the pictures from my Iphone onto my computer. When I use to plug the phone in I would get a pop up from Windows saying do you want to transfer pics to computer, do you want them to erase off phone once transfered, etc. Now I do not get the pop up. It is like the computer no longer recognizes that my Iphone is plugged in. Technically the pics are on my computer in the Photo Stream folder..but I want to actually transfer them off the phone. I have tried to turn off Photo Stream and I cloud but it does not help. The computer still does not recognize the phone plugged into the USB. If I go to "add a printer, scanner or camera" on the computer..it does not see it either. That is where it talks about having a driver to set up a new hardware device. I have 900 pics on my phone that I do not want to have to delete one by one...and I want to make sure they are downloaded. I also have videos that I want to download to the computer either and those are no where to be found..not even in the Photo Stream folder. I appreciate any help!

  • My Mac does not recognize that I have downloaded the newest version

    I continue to get the error message that I cannot open a pages file until I download the newest version. I have downloaded the version. The apple store recognizes that I have downloaded the version and yet, pages will not open the files.
    What next?

    You have 2 versions of Pages on your Mac.
    Pages 5.2 is in your Applications folder.
    Pages '09/'08 is in your Applications/iWork folder.
    You are alternately opening the wrong versions.
    Pages '09/'08 can not open Pages 5 files and you will get the warning that you need a newer version.
    Pages 5.2 can open Pages '09 files but may damage/alter them. It can not open Pages '08 files at all.
    Older versions of Pages 5 can not open files from later versions of Pages 5.
    Once opened and saved in Pages 5 the Pages '09 files can not be opened in Pages '09.
    Anything that is saved to iCloud and opened in a newer version of Pages is also converted to Pages 5 files.
    All Pages files no matter what version and incompatibility have the same extension .pages.
    Pages 5 files are now only compatible with themselves on a very restricted set of hardware, software and Operating Systems and will not transfer correctly on any other server software than iCloud.
    Apple has removed almost 100 features from Pages 5 and added many bugs:

  • My HP Laser Jet P1006 Printer ran out of paper and it does not recognize that I have paper in it? I

    What do I do to let it know that it has paper. I have turned it off & put paper in and out?

    Hey , Welcome to the HP forums! I hope you enjoy your stay here. I see that you are having issues with installing your Laserjet CM1415fnw on your Windows 7 PC. I can certainly help with that. First, since you said that the install is timing out, we're going to remove the print queue. To do so:If the printer is connected through a USB cable then remove the USB cable.Click on Start and open Devices and Printers.In this window right click on any listed printers and click on Remove Device.Now we'll do a few things that may help with the install.Click on Start and type in cmd where it says "Search Programs and Files". Now click enter.In this window type in msiexec /unregister and click enter.Now type msiexec /regserver and click enter.To make sure we're using the latest drivers click on this link to download the latest drivers.Once it's downloaded try installing.If this works then please let other forum users know by clicking on Accept as Solution below this post. If this does not work then please let me know if you see any errors or provide more details about what happens when you install so I'll have a better idea of how to help you further.
     I hope this helps and I hope you have a great weekend!  

  • IMac does not recognize that I have set language default to English

    I am not very computer savvy so please be patient with me. I have set the language to English on my computer but whenever I type anything it is telling me that every word (for instance in this post) is mispelled (so they are all underlined in red dashed lines). Why? How can I fix it? I have a little USA flag on the top right hand corner of my computer as well - not sure where that came from. Thanks!!!

    I have set the language to English on my computer
    When you go to System Prefs/International/Languages, is English at the top of the list?
    but whenever I type anything it is telling me that every word (for instance in this post) is mispelled (so they are all underlined in red dashed lines). Why?
    Probably because the spell checker is set to something else. Go to Edit > Spelling and make sure the dictionary is set to English.
    I have a little USA flag on the top right hand corner of my computer as well - not sure where that came from.
    That results from checking the box for Show Input Menu in Finder in System Prefs/International/Input Menu.

  • Computer does not recognize exteranl drive

    I have been using a Maxtor OneTouch II FireWire 800 external drive as backup for several years and it has worked fine until recently. Recently when I turn on the drive the computer does not recognize that the drive is connected on either the FireWire or USB port. I disconnected the drive and shut down the computer several times with no success. When I connect the drive to my Windows Dell laptop the laptop recognizes that the external drive is connected. Any ideas about what could be the issue with my iMac?

    All USB 1.1 devices will no doubt work on a USB 2.0 port (as long as the running system has the proper driver for it). However, not all USB 2.0 devices will work on a USB 1.1 port.
    Any suggestions about how to isolate the issue?
    The device itself (the hard drive) seems to work. To rule out FireWire port on device, you would need to connect it to another computer over FireWire to see if it works. To rule out FireWire port on iMac, you would need to connect some other FireWire device that is known to be working. For the cable, you would need to get another one that is known to be working and try it with the FireWire drive.
    Also is there anything I can try from a software perspective?
    You can start up from your Mac OS X installation disc for Panther (10.3), by inserting the disc and holding down the C key during a restart. When you get to the first Installer screen, go up to the Menu Bar under the Installer menu and select the command to run Disk Utility. See if the hard drive shows up in the Disk Utility sidebar, when you are started up from a different system.

  • HT1386 I have an iphone 4 which quit working and I had my iphone 3 reactivated until I get my 4 replaced or fixed.  My computer does not recognize my iphone 3 when I plug it in. I also cannot figure out how to apply my last backup to my iphone 3

    I have an iphone 4 which quit working and I had my iphone 3 reactivated until I get my 4 replaced or fixed.  My computer does not recognize my iphone 3 when I plug it in. I also cannot figure out how to apply my last backup to my iphone 3

    If your iPhone 4 was running iOS 5, you can't install iOS 5 on an iPhone 3G which means you can't restore the 3G from the backup of the iPhone 4 running iOS 5.

  • HT201263 My iPod touch suddenly stopped working. It was fine, but when I went back the screen had gone black and I was unable to turn it on. It is now unresponsive and my computer does not recognize it when it is plugged in. What should I do?

    My iPod touch suddenly stopped working. It was fine earlier, but when I went back a few hours later, the screen had gone black and I was unable to turn it on. It is now unresponsive and my computer does not recognize it when it is plugged in. I thought it just needed to be charged but there seems to be a larger issue now. What should I do?

    Let your ipod die. Then when it is dead charge it adn turn it back on. After that it should be fine.

  • My computer no longer recognizes my iPod Touch. And the iPod Touch does not recognize that it is connected to a computer.

    My computer no longer recognizes my iPod Touch. And the iPod Touch does not recognize that it is connected to a computer.  It has worked great for many days until today.
    I’ve tried two different Apple cables.
    I’ve tried different USB ports on the computer.
    I have rebooted both the Mac and the iPod.
    I’ve wiggled the cables and checked for dust in the connectors.
    The iPod charges using this same cable connected to wall wart.  That’s a good sign.
    Both the Mac and iPod seem to work fine separate from each other.  They just won’t talk anymore.
    Mac mini
    1.83 GHz Intel Core Duo
    OS 10.4.11
    iTunes 9.2.1
    iPod Touch 32GB, version 3.1.3 (7E18), model PB533LL 

    I found this possible solution on another support thread, so I tried it.
    turn off iPod
    hold Sleep and Home buttons to start it.
    When Apple appears, let go of Sleep button, but keep holding Home button.
    When screen goes blank, let go of Home button.
    Connect cable and check iTunes to see if it has conencted.
    This did not work for me.
    I then turned off the iPod, restarted the Mac, and restarted the iPod normally.
    I connected them with the cable, and it works like normal.  :-)

  • My imac is not recognizing any external dvd writer drive. I have imac with Core i7 and Mac OS 10.6.8. I have tried external dvd writers from Samsung and Amazon Essentials but the computer does not recognize any of them. Which Dvd writer is compatible?

    I have an external firewire burner; it never shows on the desktop unless I insert a CD or DVD - that icon will then show (if I have my preferences set to show those on the desktop). Hae you checked in Disk Utility (Applications > Utilities) to see if it is listed under drives?
