Fix for No Audio QT7.5

Hi
Try removing obsolete QuickTime Components: FFusion, Xvid Delegate, 3ivX, DivX, XviD, msmpeg4v1, msmpeg4v2, AviImporter, EX_M4S2, and Casio AVI Importer
Find in Library/Quicktime.
This worked for me. I tried running Repair Permissions - Nothing. Then installed Perian - Nothing. Then tried the above and audio is restored.
You may or may not also need to have the Perian installed.

I tried looking for those QT components in my computer and was able to locate a few DivX files. I went ahead and deleted those. Audio is still not working. I have found other components, but I'm not sure if this is safe to delete.
I've also tried to import the .AVI files from my computer and still no audio? This is very frustrating.
This QT 7.5 seems to be a common issue with the update. I wonder if there is a solution to this problem.
Do you have any other suggestions? Perian is already installed.

annie

try external USB sound card option, m-audio or creative are a couple off the top of my head you could use. they usually come with a full driver and product suit that can achieve a much better sound than the soundmax in touchsmart have to offer.

I DO NOT want to restart Firefox - and YES - I have RESET Firefox itself MANY TIMES - AND YES - I have the LATEST FIrefox - AND NO - I don't have any conflicting add-ins / extensions other than Fire FTP - and this happens ALL THE TIME - Does anybody know a workaround or a fix for this that won't mean restarting etc?

Fix for Missing Audio Device in WinXP S

My sound card disappeared from the Sounds and Audio Devices Properties panel. I tried cleansweeping and reinstalling to no effect. I could watch my card disappear from the panel as Windows went through startup after I reinstalled it. My card , a Sound Blaster Li've!, was listed under the hardware tab but the drivers were listed as "Driver installed but not started". Creative Diagnostics said I passed the hardware detection test but failed the driver tests. I am using the drivers from the Li'veDrvUni-Pack(ENG) version .0.0..
I found this fix after searching with Google. The site is www.annoyances.org/exec/forum/winxpt/t06642744. It resolved my problem. I did use DH Driver Cleaner Pro to remove any Creative drivers. You need to know that the hardware scan and reinstall in step 6 can take several minutes. I also removed hidden copies of my Creative devices in step 5. The revealed hidden devices have greyed icons next to them.
Sincerely,
Weasel

RE>Hello to all,
I got much useful information from this topic, but none of them resolved my sound
problem. I use Windows XP SP2 on an Asus V7V8X and a Creative SB Audigy. I also tried
removing the SB card and enabling the built in VIA AC 97 without success.
Then I tried removing and adding back the Plug and Play Software Device Enumerator
as you suggested without success.
Then I went further reinstalling some of the kernel sound drivers and that resolved
the issue in my case so I describe my ste
ps.
First I suggest everyone to create a System Restore point to have something to return
in case of something goes wrong. You can boot XP to safe mode by pressing F8 at the
beginning of the Windows startup and select Safe Mode if the system doesn?t start
in normal mode and use System Restore there to go back to the working configuration.
Then try these steps only if the others mentioned here don?t help. I had everything
ok in Device Manager and every driver was running that should, compared to an other
working system, but the symptom was that there was no sound coming out from the sound
card. Everything was OK in the Device Manager, but in the Sounds and Audio Devices
Control Panel there was only the Voice recording option on the Voice tab, and the
MIDI music playback (without the sound card being in the list) on the Audio tab acti've.
The others like Voice playback, Sound playback, Sound recording and everything on
the Volume tab was grayed out.
. Create the restore point.
2. On the System Properties panel, Advanced tab, Environment Variables button, under
the User variables click New and create a variable named devmgr_show_nonpresent_devices
with the value of .
3. Open the Device Manager and select Show hidden devices from the View menu.
4. Under the Sound, video and game controllers group, find your sound card(s) and
disable it/them (don?t need to uninstall).
5. Then uninstall the following devices:
- Microsoft Kernel Audio Splitter
- Microsoft Kernel System Audio Device
- Microsoft Kernel Wave Audio Mixer
- Microsoft WINMM WDM Audio Compatibility Driver
6. Select Scan for hardware changes from the Action menu. Now the system should redetect
and reinstall the deleted devices automatically. You may get non signed driver warnings,
click continue.
7. Enable the devices you disabled in step 4. You may need to restart the computer.
The problem should be disappeared, you should be able to play sounds.
Good luck!

Hi
You should check if the microphone has not been disabled.
Go to control panel -> sound -> recording tab
There you should make a right click and should enable the both options called show hidden devices and show disabled devices.
Now you should see 2 microphone entries; one internal mic and second should belong to the external mic jack.
If you want to use the internal mic then mark it as default device.
Cheers

Is there a fix for distorted audio on iTunes 10.5 ?

I installed iTunes 10.5. Now I get disorted audio on all mp3 files. It does not matter if the files are old or newly downloaded. These same files sound fine in a competitive mp3 player. This seems of eliminate OS and driver problems. Other people are posting similar problems with the 10.5 upgrade. I have not tried a restore to an earlier version. I have tried a complete uninstall and reinstalltion without sucess.

You may want to look here:   https://discussions.apple.com/message/16559668#16559668
A lot of people are having problems with iTunes 10.5 and older AMD and Intel CPUs. From what I've seen, it looks like when Apple removed the Quicktime dependency in itunes 10.5 they didn't get the decoder right for MP3 files and it fails when the CPUs don't support the SSE2 instruction set.
That's why it impacts playback through iTunes, but not on other devices.   I've been submitting help requests but so far Apple hasn't acknolwedged the problem, although I did see one forum thread (https://discussions.apple.com/message/16554893#16554893) that implied they were working on it.
DO NOT INSTALL iTUNES 10.5 ON AN OLDER PCS UNTIL THEY FIX THIS!!! ALL YOUR MP3 MUSIC SOUNDS LIKE FINGERS ON A CHALKBOARD!!!

Possible fix for no audio & grayed-out volume control

Hi, I just thought I'd post this fix I found for my Mac Mini losing audio and also having the volume control grayed-out as if permanently muted.
I have had this problem a couple of times on my Intel 2 GHz Core 2 Duo Mac Mini. I have tried some of the software solutions found on the web such as zapping PRAM, deleting certain Plists, etc. But in my experience the fix that has worked is to open the Mac Mini and unseat and then reseat the orange Foxconn ribbon audio cable where it connects from the Mini's audio board to what I assume is the main circuit board. Then when you reassemble and turn on your Mac, audio will be back.
My theory is that unplugging and re-plugging USB and audio cables on the back of the Mini near the audio board eventually loosens the internal ribbon cable and causes the audio to stop working. My latest attempt at a permanent solution is to have USB and analog 2.5mm stereo audio 'extender' cables plugged in on the back of my Mini, which loop forwards over the top of the Mini where they are all taped down securely. This allows me to plug and unplug cables without ever disturbing the actual USB and audio ports on the back of the Mini. I am hoping this will help avoid the lost audio & grayed-out volume control problem in the future since the connection of the internal audio ribbon cable is less likely to be disturbed. It is a somewhat ugly solution but seems to be working so far. I'll post later on if the volume control gets grayed out again even with these measures.

Not on mac though

Blackberry Curve 8330 – fixes for poor audio quality?

Hello,
I have a BlackBerry Curve 8330.
            When I use it to play music (mp3s with a good high bit rate) the sound quality is excellent using the “official” headphones that came with the phone (3.5mm jack) and when I play music using the phone’s speakerphone.
           But I run into problems when connecting the phone to 1) External computer speakers (good ones) and my car’s auxiliary input (2007 Camry) to play music off my Curve on the car speakers/system. In both these instances I am connecting the BlackBerry with a male-male 3.5mm connector wire (I understand that the Curve has a 3.5 mm headset/audio output, unlike most phones which are 2.5 mm outputs?).
           I have tried several 3.5 mm male-male connector wires but get the following problems when playing music on both the external computer speakers and my Camry:
-- Low volume and muffled sound
-- A loud one-second burst of static/click when the music player goes to next song
Can you help me figure this out?
Thanks!

I have the same problem. Using my iPod fixed the problem.

Fix for audio after 10.5.8 upgrade?

Anyone heard of a fix for poor audio (all alerts are mainly crackle and static now) after upgrading to OS X 10.5.8 ?
Thanks.

I have the same with my NAS. In the beginning of Leopard the same thing happened, with the connect to the server a Finder window of the disk would open. But in the last 4-5 version everything went as it was supposed to. And now I end up with all these open windows ;-(. Annoying.
Detail, I connect using a SMB server.
Would appreciate it very much if this is solved in the near future.

Is there a fix for Mountain Lion audio output settings after the laptop goes to sleep and wakes back up?

Mac Book Pro running Mountain Lion OS X 10.8.5 after the notebook sleeps audio and video does work (for example on YouTube). I have been able to temporarily work around this by toggling the settings on Built-in Output in Audio Midi Setup, Audio window between 2ch-20bit Integer and 2ch-24bit Integer. But this is a temporary fix until the laptop sleeps again.
When it's not working, all system sounds (emails "dings", delete file "swish", etc.) are silenced, and video playbacks on YouTube and elsewhere freeze and have no audio until the Audio Output settings are toggled then they all immediately start working.
Has anyone encountered the same? Have a long term fix for this annoyance?
I cannot upgrade the OS to 10.9 Mavericks yet because of a corporate policy - there is some conflict with 10.9 and our corporate VPN connection.

Toshiba Thrive Tablet Broken Headphone Jack Fix For Audio Line Out

BROKEN HEADPHONE JACK SIMPLE FIX FOR TOSHIBA THRIVE TABLET:
I love my Toshiba Thrive tablet. I take it with me everywhere I go, nearly every day. I also enjoyed connecting the headphone output jack on the side to an external set of speakers. I would enjoy stereo internet, video watching and so on. I recently broke (cracked) the headphone jack on accident. For months, I heard only through the small, factory installed speakers which, is not quite what I'd call 'ideal stereo.' Has anyone else done this? Despite trying to find repair shops locally, no one will touch a tablet it seems for repair or replacement parts. It's not your usual headphone jack. But - I can tell you how to get your sound back!
THE QUICK FIX
While browsing the internet, I found a device that by-passes the headphone jack and instead uses the internal workings of the Thrive tablet's main connection port. This port is located at the base of the unit. It will be covered by a protective, plastic tab that is removeable. Simply pry a little. This long narrow port was designed to allow you to set the entire Thrive tablet into a docking station designed for it. In this docking station are various connection pins that allow the audio to be sent out of the tablet and into the docking station. At the rear of the docking station you'll find a host of connection types: 1) audio out jack/headphone 2) USB 3) HDMI 4) 110v power supply. Simply plug your speakers or headphone cable into the new docking station and you're done! Your audio will work again. I purchased my docking station for $6.00 on Ebay. Oddly, the unit doesn't charge very well if at all while in the docking station but I've read you can simply remove the cover from your Thrive, remove the battery physically for a few minutes, return it to it's rightful place then close the cover and this fixes the problem. It's a strange little glitche. I have yet to try this yet. I did find that if I plug the cord directly into the Thrive right side as designed, it will recharge the battery as usual. I ordered a few of these docking stations which allow me to simply set the pad down depending on where I am and it will continue to charge. The docks do not come with power outlet so you'll need to consider buying additional but it works wonderfully. There are now even wireless docking stations too!

Do you have fix for Photo Booth Audio and Video are not syncing properly, Do you have fix for Photo Booth Audio and Video are not syncing properly

My audio and video are not syncing properly. There is a lag from the audio to the video. Does anyone have a permanent fix for Photo Booth where the Audio and Video are not syncing properly?

If you monitor the "More Like This" box (top right), other threads appear. Opening them usually displays other threads. You aren't the only one having this problem.
One person having a Photo Booth problem, although not the same one as you are having solved it by running Disk Utility/Repair Permissions.

Fix for iTunes and Stuttering Audio Upon Opening Other Programs

This was answered for me in another mega thread, so I thought I would create it's own topic in hopes of helping as many people as possible.
This is a fix for those that have the problem of iTunes 7 working fine alone, but when opening another program such as a game, etc., iTunes 7 begins to stutter and crackle. This fix assumes that otherwise, the program works correctly (gapless, and other issues are not a problem, no blue screens of death, etc.)
First off my machine:
Dell XPS 3.4 ghz Pentium Dual Core
2 Gig RAM
Creative SB X-Fi audio card, latest drivers installed
Observed problem:
Running iTunes 7, audio sounded fine, but opening another program such as UT2004 (first person shooter game) caused iTunes 7 to stutter and crackle.
This was not an issue in iTunes 6.05. I had to upgrade as I just purchased the new Nano.
As an aside, I have another sound card on my computer, an older Layla Echo 24 professional soundcard, drivers are about 3 years old. When selecting this card, this problem does not occur.
The Fix:
Close iTunes 7
Upgrade your sound card drivers (just to eliminate that as an issue)
Upgrade to latest Microsoft direct X version:
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyId=2DA43D38-DB71-4C1B-BC6A -9B6652CD92A3&displaylang=en
Start
Run
Type: dxdiag
Click "sound 1" or similarly named tab
Slide bar to "basic acceleration" (mine was at full, and basic is two clicks to the left)
Exit
Restart iTunes 7, and startup music
Open game, or other program
Your music in iTunes 7 should now be stutter/crackle free
This may not work for everybody, but it worked for me so I thought I would pass this along.
Good luck!

Dell XPS Windows XP Creative SB X-FI Audio Card
Dell XPS Windows XP

i was hopeful, but it didn't work. well teh one thing that i had to do diff was the dx updating, WGA doesn't like to work on my system for some unkown reason (yes it was bought at a store) so i found a way around their WGA check for it (i think) the one i got was labeled as dxwebupdate for august 2006. it updated just fine and it looks like it should be the same one as the newest update release microsoft sent out
my system is a home built one and haven't had probs with itunes with any other version, until this one. i'm tempted to just go back to the newest version 6 i have, cause this is rediculous. i can't do anything without it sputtering away at me. i tryed uninstalling it and removing every trace of its exsistance off of the system (including registry) and that didn't work i made sure all numbers were set to the correct values for my sound blaster audigy gamer, i was using some non oem drivers, but switched over just to make sure witht eh newest ones creative had, and it made zero diff.
i'm wondering if it is an issue it is having with sound blaster cards...
well anyways if anyone else has any ideas i would like to hear them

Is there a fix for metro apps audio ducking while in a Skype call

Hello, I have been looking all over the internet for a fix for this but so far it doesn't seems like there is a way to fix this.
I'm trying to use Metro apps while in a Skype call but if I click out of the app the volume lowers to about 20% of what it was at before.
"When Windows detects communicates activity" is set to "Do nothing" but it does not control the Metro part of windows 8.1.
Is there some type of hack that be used to stop Metro apps from lower the volume when in a Skype call, Teamspeak or Mumble. As a gamer this makes the Metro part of Windows completely useless.

Hi,
I made a test in my testing enviroment, when using Skype(Store APP) for phone call, system background volume would reduce, while after I'm back to desktop, it would return to former volume.
For your situation, this problem can be caused by Sound Card driver problem, you can try to reinstall Sound Card driver for test.
If no use, please also try to reinstall Skype for test.
