ERROR The Audio Device supported by this application is not detected. the application will ex

Sound is fine but I get error message every time I try to start any of the creative applications that come in mediasource like the graphic eq, speaker settings, surround mixer, EAX and THX consoles; the error: The Audio Device supported by this application is not detected. The application will exit.
I have read the forum notes on this error message and seems other have had this same issue, but I don't see any solutions...if anyone knows anything about solving this little mystery, please reply - need to get into that console to fully utilize this sound card.

AFTER AUTOUPDATE this problem began. I removed the audigy package and reinstalled everything from the factory CD and still get this message. This happens every time I update the audigy drivers and thx. I am tired of doing recoveries to get audigy to work. Too bad I keep forgetting that the updates cause this problem. Audigy Platinum 2 works fine wothout the update. I will never update again!
How can I resolve this problem short of a full recovery?

    I Have a X-Fi Extreme Gamer PC Using Win Vista. When I click on "Creative Audio Control Panel" to open it to change modes
    it now says this.. "The Audio device supported by this application is not detected. The Application will exit."
    Everything has been redone to try and solve this. Drivers have been redone, and even took the card out and put back in.
    Device Manager shows SB X-fi workingCard works fine cause I booted up into WinXP and it all works fine.
    Can anyone help?

    This has been fixed by downloading and installing SB X-Fi Series Support Pack .0 (0/3/2009) a few threads under this one. In case anyone else has this problem thats how its fixed at the moment.
    Here is of the sites?

  • "the audio device supported by this application is not detected&qu

    OK so i have had a Audigy 2 ZS Platinum for like 2 years now. About 2 weeks ago the Mic stopped working so i tried updating the drivers to see if that would fix the problem it didn't. Then a couple of days ago i got a new case so while transferring all the hardware i decided to try putting the card in a different slot to see if that was the problem(i also deleted all the drivers and software before hand). So i did that started the comp up and installed the drivers and software using the original CD. Now that fixed my Mic it works fine now along with the sound, But if i try and use and of the creative software like the equalizer or EAX console i get the message. Now the sound and Mic work and if i goto my device manager the computer sees the card "Creative SB Audigy 2 ZS(WDM)", but i still get that error message. I also noticed that its a lot quieter now and i have to turn my speakers up a lot more to get the same noise level. Along with if i am playing a game (WoW specifically) and listening to music i get a crackling noise from my speakers. This doesn't happen if im just listening to music so i know its not the speakers.
    OK thanks for reading my really long post any help would be greatly appreciated.

    I have the Audigy 2ZS Platinum Pro version and I have the exact problem.
    It started?with the missing microphone, I unistalled and reinstalled the drivers from original CD. During the installation, I got error message that?the?installation?file _iss.dll was not found. Repeated installation of drivers with the same result. After the end of the installation, I am?getting same error message about audio device not detected.
    Any ideas someone??I spent a good amount of money when I bought this sound card, thinking that I was buying a proper sound card from a respected company, which would give me good support when I would need it. Please don't prove me wrong....

  • The audio device supported by this application is not detect

    Here is the information on my system:
    AMD Athlon 64 3700
    2 GB RAM
    MSI K8 Neo4 Platimum M/B
    Nvidia 7800 GT Graphics card with 256 MB RAM
    Audigy X-Fi Platinum
    Windows XP home SP2
    The card is functioning, however, none of the applications will function. The Audio console halts with a message ""
    This card has worked fine for about four months or so and now this seems to be a problem all of the sudden. I have noticed others are having these issues. I hope that Creative has not become another ATI (poorly written apps and drivers). I would like to know a fix for the matter at hand. I invested too much in my computer not to be able to get full use of it.
    Brion

    I found a solution to the problem that will allow the apps to run and the drivers to function correctly. My computer showed as having SP2, however, I decided to download the IT Professional version of it and install it again. Problem has disappeared and everything is working once again. Seems this Creative software is HIGHLY dependant on SP2. Here is a link to what I used to solve my problem:

  • The audio device supported by this device was not detect

    Ok, i'm having massi've problems with this card, i think it just hates me. I'm running Windows XP SP3 Home, SB Audigy 2 ZS Platinum and it's not going too well. I have had it installed for a year now, Had to put up with EAX Console giving me a mediasource Error. Sound Mixer worked at this point. Then i decide to reinstall it, deleting all traces of it (installshield files too), i disabled my onboard sound (i had no idea it was enabled) called AC97 Audio or something in the bios. I restart and re-install. All seemed fine, until i double click the Creative Volume control and find the Error you see in the title now. I have a look on Sound and Audio Devices on Control Panel and it says 'No device found' on the first panel. On Recording and Audio the first 2 boxes are grayed out, but the Midi one has SB Audigy [0B00] or something similar. It's been plaguing me ever since i got it. Every application except diagnostics tool gives me the Error in the title. Also, instead of the classic Ping that windows gives through my speakers, i get a beep from inside my computer. It won't let me press the play button on the Sounds section of sounds and audio devices. I would deeply appreciate any help. Thanks
    Any other info you need to know, just post here.
    Heigou
    UPDATE: I ran dxdiag and the sound section tells me that a sound card wasn't detected.
    UPDATE: I changed PCI Slot, still same problem.

    I got the Fatalty Platinum. I can install the card only from original included CD which that has older version of drivers. I downloaded the newer 2.5.0002 and while I've cleared everything of the older, when I'm trying to install, I'm getting this error with result no sound at all. The device manager says that I haven't installed any sound devices!
    Any advice why this happens?

    Can you control EAX through "Creative Audio Console" ot "CT Panel"?
    - Audio Console is bundled w/ latest drivers (or you can DL the installation separately from CT Support).
    - CT Panel can be found on "C:\Program Files\Creative\SBAudigy2Zs\Program\WDM\COMMON" -folder (ctpanel.exe) and/or
    inside the driver update (SBAX_WEBUP_LB_2_08_0004.exe\Drivers\wdm\common\i3 86 or Amd64 -folder).

  • The audio device supported by this application is not detec

    I have recently installed the SoundBlaster Li've 24-bit software included with my Shuttle XPC model SD3p. According to Windows Device Manager, I have the sound card and it works fine on PCI slot "#3" (it's actually on the motherboard of course). But, it doesn't appear anywhere. I cannot choose it as an output,input, or midi device. Most of the creative software fails to load with the message:
    ". The application will exit"
    What gives? Is the on-board chip bad? If I run dxdiag and try to run the sound test, I get:
    DirectSound test results: Failure at step 3 (DirectSoundCreate): HRESULT = 0x88780078 (No driver)

    Here is what was suggested by Jason and it fixed my similar problem. Hope it works for you.
    "You could check out the Windows Audio service and make sure those are enable and running.
    Control Panel -> Administrati've Tools -> Services
    But from the looks of it, it seems to be more of a corrupted OS problem than a sound card problem since the onboard audio had a similar situation."

  • "The audio device supported by this application is not detected" Soluti

    I just recently bought an X-Fi xtrememusic and have been having alot of trouble to get the software on the CD to "coexist" with the new drivers. I was just messing around awhile ago in msconfig and autoruns and found a few creative startup programs that I had disabled. I decided to poke around in C:\windows and system32 to manually run these programs and my audio console finally started to work! Only problem is that it generates an error when I exit it out but my settings stick. I'm not sure what programs are necessary for the included software to function properly but next time I get the chance I will reinstall and leave it as it should be to see what happens.

    AFTER AUTOUPDATE this problem began. I removed the audigy package and reinstalled everything from the factory CD and still get this message. This happens every time I update the audigy drivers and thx. I am tired of doing recoveries to get audigy to work. Too bad I keep forgetting that the updates cause this problem.

  • The Audio Device supported by this application is not detected. the application will exit ER

    I have an Audigy 2 ZS , My system XP-Home SP2 Athlon 64
    From time to time i tried to install the newest drivers from the download area without success ( bluescreens and such other issues ).
    The drivers direct from the CD are working.
    Now i was able to install the SBAX_WEBUP_LB_2_08_0004.exe driver ( but there where blue screens to)
    Now, there is sound, but the whole creativve software is not working.
    For instance it is not possible to access the speaker settings .
    Error Message " "
    Error Code 6003
    What shall i do ?

    Upon further inspection, I only get the error message when I try to open any app in the Sound Blaster Audigy 2 ZS sub folder. In other words: START/All Programs/Creative/Sound Blaster Audigy 2 ZS. Anything I try opening in there gives me the error. Everything in the Creative Media Toolbox, and Sound Blaster X-Fi sub folders work fine. As long as I never need anything in the SB Audigy 2 ZS folder, I'm A-OK.

  • Audio Device Supported by This Application is Not Detec

    Just bought my Audigy4 and installed it without any problems last Thursday 3/30. On Saturday I browsed the creative website and went to automatic updates and followed all the instructions. The updates had some problems with "Regsvr32 failures" and upon rebooting found that the applications that are depending on the proper detection of the sound device are not working. I get "Audio Device Supported by this Application is Not Detected" errors. So, I called creative support since I was within the 60 day window. Their first recommendation was to remove all software following their clean uninstall procedures, swap the card out with another slot and then reinstall the software. Well, same results, though more installation errors. I called back today and the technician said to create a new user account and try. I asked him what the next step would be if this didn't work and he said; "Reinstall Windows". Can you believe that! I'm flabergasted that Creative would expect me to scratch my dri've, reinstall windows because they write crappy software. Well, not just to complalin now that I have it off my chest-I'm wondering if I am the only one who has experienced this problem, or if others have faced and overcome the same hurdle.

    Good luck, guys ... I had the same problem, among others, after updating drivers for Audigy2 ZS. Lost speakers and couldn't get them back, too. I finally managed to clear out all of the Creative stuff and reinstall the drivers from the installation CD, but the speaker assignments were permanently hosed. I even swapped the Audigy2 into a different slot on the motherboard, and it just got worse, until I was down to one speaker even though Windows said 5.. What I ended up doing was spending the majority of today restoring the entire Windows partition--I had an Acronis backup from last year on DVD--but it still isn't working quite the same.
    No more auto updates EVER. And it would be awfully nice if Creative would put some of their previous version drivers back up.

    Hi,
    I have this printer HP Laser M1522nf.It was working fine till today.Suddenly it has started giveng this error
    "HP Laser M1522NF the USB device attached to this computer is not recognised and has Malfunctioned"

    Appreciate your gracious advice and guidance in this regard,
    Many thanks

    Is this at an office and you are logged in not as an administrator?
    If that's not the case, then the message maybe true, that it did malfunction, and need to be serviced. (assuming you already tried power cycle the printer, making sure doors/trays are all properly put in.

  • "Windows cannot access the specified device,path, or file.You may not have the appropiate permission

    We subscribe to a service called "Vault" which provies its documents in encrypted PDFs using the etd format. As well as Digitial Editions we have Acrobat Reader 9 installed on our PCs (Windows XP,SP2). When a user tries to download any of the documents they are seeing the following error:
    "Windows cannot access the specified device,path, or file.You may not have the appropiate permissions to access the item."
    However, if they open Digitial Edtions (or have had it open at some point in the past) before they download the document it opens without any problems. We use ZEN works to manage our PCs, and we use something called Dynamic Local User (DLU) which means that when a students logs into a PC the user's local Windows account is created on the fly, and then when they log out it is then deleted. This means that they are effectively using Digitial Edtions for the first time everytime they log into a PC.
    As anyone else seen the above error? Also, is there a way of stopping it? What does Digital Editions do the first time it is opened? Are there registry keys that we can add, which emulates the opening of Digital Editions so it doesn't have to be opened first before we can download the Vault documents?
    Any advice/tips would be most welcome.

    Visual Studio is a very invasive program and which provides the ability to enumerate projects and solutions for system, user should never try uninstalling it manually without any guidance.
    Visual Studio made changes for your whole system, if the file has been moved or deleted this error would occur.
    Since you mentioned that you get this error almost everywhere even in control panel. We suggest you repair/reinstall your Visual Studio first and check if it could be fixed.
