Dv6636nr replacement motherboard now microphone not recording sound

hi
i am having a problem with my machine. after a recent replacement motherboard was fitted i now no longr have microphone functionality. skype will not complete the test call successfullly and trying to set up speech recognition the red and yellow bars dont even move.i think that in the microphone section however if you tap the system it does recognize there, there are a couple of shooting green bars, this is all i can get!!
i have been trying to solve the problem for hours now, downloaded the drivers/uninstalled. tried a previous version but it just kept reupdating. also got the UAA driver but still nothing.
i have sound on everything else and my cam works.
any ideas?
thank youu!!!!

Good idea Joe.
I went to my system preferences (I'm running Mavericks) and checked.
My internal microphone shows as 'built-in'
My line in shows as 'audio line-in port'
I moved up the input volume a little to be safe
Output volume on full, but there was never any problem playing tracks previously recorded.
I still haven't reinstalled Garage Band, as I wanted to get my podcast done before the end of the month. I exported the cast as it was to an external hard drive, along with small mp3's I had been about to add in (like my jingle) then went to another computer in the house, and recreated the podcast from those mp3's. I was able to add in the introductory audio recording on that other computer and complete my podcast.
I transferred the newly recreated podcast back to my normal laptop (where the problem occurs), checked and published my podcast. I double checks the newly recreated cast (the one I built up on the other machine from mp3's) to see if I could record now - since I recorded within that particular project on the other machine. I *still was not able to record* on my laptop.
I still cannot create another new project that allows me to audio record. My preferences for the garage band app and op sys on my laptop, all appear to be set for sound.
I guess I will now break down and reinstall garage band. I think I've reset something in the application that an update doesn't reset.
Thanks for your ideas.

In my first iPhone 5, the speaker didn't work and people could not hear me on Speaker phone when I used it. When I used the video recording it did not record sound at all only a hissing/static sound, no voice.

In my first iPhone 5, the speaker didn't work and people could not hear me on Speaker phone when I used it. When I used the video recording it did not record sound at all only a hissing/static sound, no voice. I wished for a software fix. I did a hard reset, nothing. I did a full restore to factory settings not putting my backup on and the problem persisted.

I did every step in the link that i have been provided with (thank you), but I’m
still experiencing the same issue. My experience with Apple has been
excellent and this has been the first time I have experienced something
like this with an Apple product. I hope we can find a quick solution.
In order to get the iPhone 5 as soon as it launched (being a major fan of
Apple products!), I purchased my iPhone 5 from the UK through a friend of
mine who lives there.
My question is: can I have the faulty device replaced within Saudi by one
of the official resellers here (we have 3: STC, Mobily and Zain)? I want to
avoid the disruption, complication and expense of sending it back to the
UK.
Could you advise whether this is possible or not, and if not how should I
go about having the device replaced?
Thank you in advance for your cooperation.

Nice try! Take a hike.

I have a HP610-1150f. not recording sound when using webcam in touchsmart screen.

I have a HP610-1150f. not recording sound when using webcam in touchsmart screen. I have looked thru this forum and I don't see anyone else having this problem. (unless I missed it). The recording works in Notes, but not when I open Webcam and try to record from there. video recording works fine. I have had this computer less than a month and I am having a couple of problems with it. Still loving it though.

Microphone not recording

has anyone any ideas please. Mic not recording sound or working using Skype.

First, try a system reset. It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo. Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears. You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore. Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset. It could take well over an hour! Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync. From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab. Follow the on-screen directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup. You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod. Again, say "yes."
At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod. As before, say "yes." Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time. If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device. Corrective action is simple - choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
If you're unable to do the Restore, go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here. Also, if you have IOS-7, read this.

Microphone is not recording sound.

When I try to record, this happens.
$ arecord -d 5 test-mic.wav
ALSA lib pcm_dsnoop.c:618:(snd_pcm_dsnoop_open) unable to open slave
arecord: main:722: audio open error: No such file or directory
I got an HP pro book. Anyone have any tips on how to get it recording sound (video works fine)?

Is your user in the audio group (this may be different now with systemd)? Sometimes you need PA to get the mic to record.

IMovie not recording sound with iSight image

In system preferences > sound, I have Built-in microphone selected. But Audacity won't record sound (never works anyway) and iMovie will record image from the iSight, but no sound.
What am I missing?

You're welcome. After further investigation, not only does the volume in the system preferences affect the mic, the actual "voice over" (microphone icon) does as well, even though I'm recording with iSight and not, specifically, a voice over.
However, fantastic YouTube video diaries or whatever they're called must be done on a PC or a Mac that knows how to shut up. If there's one thing right now that's about to make this computer fly through the air, it's the fans that rev up to 6000 and even an external mic picks up the noise. Not much I can do about it. Maybe Snow Leopard and iLife '09 solved the issue.

Photo booth will not record sound with video

I have always been able to record sound when using photo booth. Now i cant seem to do it.

Have you got your Input Sound in System Prefs set to Internal microphone or Line in?

IMovie not recording sound

Hey I use a microphone to record onto garageband but when I try to record off of my built in mic it won't let me. I tried using my external mic and it worked but i could only get the left speaker to get sound. Could anyone help me to get either the internal mic to work or let me know how i could record my external mic in mono form?
Thanks for all the help, Blackout135

This is now in IMovie that the internal mic is coming through the left speaker.
Well, that explains why you were asking your questions here. (Was a bit confused by GarageBand references.)
The real problem here is in IMovie.
Well, that could be more problematic. Is the original voiceover file still available in the iMovie '08 project package? If so, start there and check to see if you actually have a stereo channelization. If stereo and both tracks are active, then you have a playback problem in iMovie. If stereo and only one channel is active, then your either have a hardware problem or some sort of a setting that I frankly know nothing about at the moment. If only one AIFF track was recorded and it is set for left or right, then I would assume only a mono input is supported and might either change the channel allocation to mono in QT Pro to allow it to play out through both speakers or use the "Mono 1 or Mono 2" option in GarageBand to accomplish the same thing.

ISight not recording sound in

So, Ive been playing around with Photobooth, and recently, I've lost the ability to record the sound of the videos I make through it.
I've checked the sys pref and test the audio input mic and the bars move just fine. I can even record sound from the isight through iMovie - it comes through fine. Any idea on how to address this? I'm perplexed. Sounds like the app to me...but I'm a recent convert

Hello Tubulcane
If repairing permissions doesn't help, I agree with your diagnosis. Try reinstalling the app. Take a look at this post if you need help:

TS1702 IPhone5 video camera not recording sound

My new iPhone 5 does not record audio when using the camera to record video. Any suggestion welcome

I have the same problem. It's intermittent but it doesn't work more than it does work so it would be easy to replicate. Sometimes audio would record in and out in a single recording, sometimes nothing but hissing/static. I do not run a cover of any sort, and my fingers are not covering any holes.

Satellite A350D does not record sound

Hi
I have been browsing through the forums trying various settings through the control panel and webcam drivers but dont seem to be having any luck. There was a post talking about "bios" but different laptop version than mine.
My laptop was orignally Windows Vista but the harddrive went two weeks ago and had to be replaced. The recovery disks that were made when the laptop was bought new did not work at all as they would not load, and the Vista number on the sticker under the computer had worn out (my machine is about 4 years old) so we put Windows 7 on the machine.
I finally got my camera working again with a driver download but the sound / microphone recording is not working as there is no sound in the test videos I have done.
If anyone has any suggestions I would appreciate it.
Thanks
Shelly

Which Satellite A350D?
If it's a US model, it's more likely to be A305D.
The model number looks something like Satellite A305D-S6831. The part number like PSAH0U-00J007.

G60 214 upgraded to XP Pro SP2 all good but microphone not recording

Hi all,
just upgraded an HP G60-214 to XP Pro SP2 with much assistance from yourselves for which many thanks !
Getting the Conexant HD 221 sound to work was difficult but is now good but I'm having trouble getting the microphone to work.
Device manager shows an NVidia driver and says it's working properly but 'Sound Recorder' doesn't record anything and neither does Skype. The volume is set to maximum and it isn't muted.
Anyone got this to work under XP ?
Thanks for looking !

Hi
I have a similar problem.
If I use skype, or infact other programs, the microphone seems very unstable.
In most of my skype calls I loose the mic at some point or another. during these drops Skype warns me that the mic is very low, but I have not changed any settings. It seems that there is a problem with the integrated mic. Loose connection or something. This is not just with Skype but with other programs where I use the mic. However, there is no problem with hearing the other side of a call. Thus speaker is fine. Tired of this problem as I cant call without having problems. Please help.
thanks in advance.

Repair or replace? If replace, HD now or not yet?

I have been happily doing semi-pro-level video for a variety of applications (nature scenes for a series of commercial "sorta music video" DVDs, documentary-like stuff, weddings, and anything else that comes my way) for seven years with my primary and beloved camera being a Canon XV2 (Japanese model #, but same as GL2 in the U.S.). Since I live in Japan and have no car, that camera is the right compromise between pro features and small size, and I was able to afford it - most stuff I do for free, so my budget is limited. I've had two intermittent problems with it (dirty heads symptoms when heads are not dirty, even just after repair, and an occasional "Eject the tape" demand), and have had a few repairs on it, but was not planning on getting new equipment for another couple years at least. But last week, five minutes before the beginning of a wedding, the zoom on it flaked out - probably an electronic problem. I swapped it with my second camera that was planned as unmanned and survived the wedding, but now I have a dilemma. First of all, I'm asking myself if I should put more money into repair of this camera (especially when I haven't been impressed with Canon's ability to solve my other problems!), or buy a new one. And if I buy a new one, should I just get another GL2/XV2, since it is what I am familiar with? (I was surprised to see that it is not only still being made, but it appears to be the #1 prosumer camera out there, even after over seven years on the market.) Or since I don't replace cameras often, would I be crazy in 2009 to buy a new camera that cannot do HD?
I have not studied the new HD phenomenom in depth, but my impression is that so far the manufacturers have not come up with a way to store HD that works well for prosumer-level editing in Premiere Pro. I assume the real pro cameras do something different, but as far as I can tell, in my price range I have to choose between HDV (compress like I would for a DVD before I even start editing? that doesn't sound right!) or AVCDV (even worse). I see some buzz about HDMI output direct to some external device, but not only are such devices pricey, but I haven't found any explanation of how I'm supposed to do that on a hike, for example (carry the storage device and a car battery in a backpack or something?). Diving with my camera would be even trickier (what all would I have to put in that underwater housing??). Also, it seems that there is not just one HD, but many different resolutions that are all called HD. Finally, when I look for HD cameras in the prosumer range, I just don't see anything - it's either consumer toys or $5000 monsters. So I had decided that HD isn't mature yet, and that DVDs will still be around for awhile before they are consumed by Blu-Ray, so I'll just keep shooting SD with my old cameras until the industry figures out what they're doing. But then my XV2 breaks...
Another issue of purchasing a different camera is the ripple effect. I use my XV2 on a tripod that balances just right (it doesn't have a sliding mount, so it needs to balance) and on a Steadicam JR sometimes. If I get an HD camera that has 3 CCDs of a decent size (I don't want to lose the good low lux ability of the XV2) and a good zoom lens (I use all 20X of the XV2's zoom on a regular basis), I'll probably need to buy a bigger tripod for starters. Then I don't know if the camera will be too heavy for my little Steadicam... or for my arm trying to hold the Steadicam with the camera and counterweight - I'm not a bodybuilder, but a 130 lb., 48-year-old woman. I suspect HD would also demand about 5 times as much computer as I have now... the list of potential dominos goes on.
I've never written to the Lounge before, but this seems like the right place to solicit opinions about the life expectancy of SD and DVD vs. the incoming HD and Blu-Ray generation, the wisdom of repairing vs. replacing (if I give the camera to Canon, they will probably charge me to look at it, even before they know what it would cost to get it fixed, and the other intermittent problems would still exist), and any other topics you feel are relevent. I have "champagne tastes on a beer budget", so I would love to get thoughts both from those of you doing pro work (my champagne tastes) and amateur (beer budget). Let's chat!

Thanks for your thoughts, Curt. By the way, kudos for the tutorial videos you made a few years back - they were a great help to me when I was learning PPro and related stuff (or was that back in the days before they put the word "Pro" on it - I can't remember). Anyway, they were well done.
Yesterday I did more internet research and discovered great news - my camera's failure is quite common (discussion here), and caused by only a failed zoom rocker switch (the rocker overrides the buttons on the handle and the LANC port, so it seems like a more fundamental problem). Someone also posted careful instructions and photos for disassembling the camera and replacing the zoom rocker unit (which is rumored to cost only $13 plus shipping in the U.S.). I don't yet know how I'll get the part here in Japan (where companies seem to try to prevent DIY), but I disconnected my rocker's cable for now, which enables me to use either the buttons or my Varizoom in the LANC port. What a relief! I was worried that the problem was the main circuit board of the camera, which, along with Canon's labor costs, might have been a painful bill for an old camera. But your vote of confidence in a seven-year-old camera's continued usefulness was encouraging enough that even if it hadn't been as simple as it turned out to be, I probably still would have sent it in for repair.
Thanks for your comments on HD as well. Just yesterday I ran across a great review of the XH-A1 and then read the specs - it does seem to be the closest thing to a "HD version of the GL2". But you gave me new information that wasn't obvious: that it can shoot in SD also. When I read the specs, I could see choices of different HD resolutions and frame speeds, but 720x480 29.97fps was not mentioned (I guess it's just not that interesting to people). So I thought I'd have to shoot in HDV and convert the video later to SD, which would surely been messier than native SD. I am currently working on a series of DVD products for which I will continue to shoot SD for a couple more years, so even if I had bought an HD camera, SD capability would be important to me.
So, are you happy with the quality of HDV? After having it pounded into me that it's a no-no to compress (very much, anyway) anything that will get edited later (whether it's photos, audio, or video), I couldn't believe my ears a few months ago when I first heard what HDV is - that the video is getting compressed to the same degree that it would be compressed for putting on a DVD (MPEG-2), before it even gets out of the camera! I ran the other way and decided that the manufacturers were simply desperate to please clueless consumers. But now I am seeing that even pros are using that format (imagine a puzzled look on my face). Do you think HDV is here to stay, or is it an interim measure until higher density tapes are invented or flash memory gets cheap enough to hold uncompressed or only lightly compressed (like DV-AVI level) video in the camera?

Sound Card Found-Satelitte P50-Now I can record sound off the laptop.

Greetings,
Hopefully, this will save some people from going through what I went through.
When I tried to record music that was playing on the laptop with a sound recording program, it would record the audio through the webcam microphone. And it sounded terrible. Toshiba support had no idea how to fix it.
However, after many hours of poking around I discovered the fix. Go to the All Control Panel Items and click on the Sound. Then click on the Recording tab. Do a Right-Click and click on the Show Disabled Devices.
You will find Stereo Mix. Enable this device. Now when you run your sound recording program, you will have the choice of selecting the Stereo Mix and you will be able to record what you hear on your laptop.
Why Toshiba has this feature disabled is beyond me...but I hope this helps others.
Gary
