For 1/11/11 expert day: can hear sounds on headphones but no sound via the internal speakers

HP Pavilion dv6135nr Notebook internal speakers have stopped working.  I can hear sounds on headphones but no sound via the internal speakers.  A search on HP customer care for my notebook yielded the download recommendation below, even though I had not stated my problem.  However, executing this download did NOT resolve the problem.  Please advise regarding resolution to inoperable speakers.  I do not know if all of my sound and audio settings are correct, but the mute is not on and the volume controls are properly set.  The default device is Conexant High Definition Audio output, per the sound and audio devices properties hardware  tab the device status states "this device is working properly."  Is it possible that a Skype or Foxfire update is in conflict with this device?  If so, how do I resolve this situation?
Thank you.

 Re: Fixes issue where the notebook speakers do not work after headphones or earphones are used for a while and then unplugged.
HOW DO YOU FIX THIS?? I cannot find the correct Microsoft Universal Audio Architecture (UAA) Bus Driver for High Definition Audio that works with my computer...
My computer:
VISTA
HP Compaq 2230s Notebook PC
Everytime I use my headphones for more than an hour or two, the **bleep** audio will not play on my notebook's speakers, just through the headphones. Usually restarting a few times resolves the problem, but not this time. If I knew that HP computers sucked this much I would never have spent so much money on this one!!!
Can you please tell me how to fix this problem once and for all? Thanks!!

    Okay so I dropped my iPhone 3G today and ever since it has been stuck on this white screen that has stripes on it. I have tried holding the home button with the up volume and the power button for a while and that didn't work. I also tried just the home button and the power button. I also tried taking it apart to see if something was loose but nothing was. PLEASE HELP I don't want to get rid of my iphone!
    If you don't have Applecare you can usually get a refurbished unit from an Apple Retail Store cut price - though they may not have any 3 models in stock and you may be 'forced' to upgrade to a 3GS.

    Im spending my birthday, struggling to figure out why this problem has occured, where as this has never happened before. A couple weeks ago i just popped in m skullcandies and spoke with no issue.

    - Try cleaning out/blowing out the headphone jack. Try inserting/removing the plug a dozen times or so. There is a little switch in the headphone jack that disconnects the speaker when the headphone jack is inserted.
    Try the following to rule out a software problem
    - Reset the iPod. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Reset all settings
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup
    - Restore to factory settings/new iPod.
    - Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store. Seems you have a bad headphone jack.
    Apple Retail Store - Genius Bar
    If not under warranty Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one for this price. They do not fix yours.

    A third-party place like the following will replace the jack for less. Google for more.

  • It kept bugging me so I upgraded to ITunes 10.4.1.  Now I can't get any sound from the internal speakers or my headphones.  Any ideas?

    I'm using a Macmini with Snow Leopard.  Everything is up-to-date according to the software updates manager.  Can I go back to the previous version?  I work from home and have very noisy neighbors so my music allows me to stay focused.  Thanks for any suggestions.

    Two suggestions:
    1.  Check iTunes volume (the slider left of the progress bar).  It's separate from the system volume.
    2.  Often, speaker problems can be resolved by resetting your computer's PRAM.  This explains how: Resetting your Mac's PRAM and NVRAM, http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1379

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    You can add an alias but not a second email address to your iCloud account. You can however add a second iCloud account to your iOS device (which will come with its own email address) at settings> mail, contacts calendars.

  • When I connect my iPad2 to my tv using the AV adapter I can hear sound for everything else except for my movies. I can hear tv shows, music, videos off YouTube, etc. I just can't hear the movies. Any ideas of what may be wrong?

    When I connect my iPad2 to my tv using the AV adapter I can hear sound for everything else except movies. I can hear tv episodes, music, YouTube videos, etc. anyone have an idea of how to fix this issue? Thank you for your help in advance.

    Just connect the new iPod to your computer and setup the iPod via iTunes (instead of via wifi).

  • Hİ My ipad's screen is black. When it  take charge, I can hear sound but still black. I press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds but this doesn't work. Screen still black! PLS HELP ME!


    My ipad's screen is black. When it  take charge, I can hear sound but still black. I press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds but this doesn't work. Screen still black! PLS HELP ME!

    How long did you let it charge? It may take 30 minutes before the iPad responds when the battery is completely drained. Let it charge for at least 30 minute using the wall charger. Then rest the iPad. Press and hold both the Home button and the Sleep/Wake button continuously until the Apple logo appears. Then release the button and let the device restart. You will not lose data doing this. It's like a computer reboot.
    If the iPad restarts let it continue to charge until the battery is 100%.
    If the iPad still does not start make an appointment at an Apple Store to have your device examined by a technician. Or contact Apple Support.

  • M-Audio Black Box Interface.  Acoustic guitar. No sound on monitor or on playback.  Tried every setting known to man, except the one that must work.  I appear to be recording - green lines in upper left.  Can hear it on headphones plugged into M-Audio.  ?

    M-Audio Black Box with Acoustic/electric guitar plugged in.  No sound on monitor or playback in GB.  Have tried every setting I can imagine.  Seems to recording because I have green bars in the upper left and can hear it on headphone into the M-Audio.  Record volume in GB not active - but I'm guessing the M-Audio cancels that.  Any ideas?  Help wanted.  Thanks.

    My daughter has had her Razr for about 9 months now.  About two weeks ago she picked up her phone in the morning on her way to school when she noticed two cracks, both starting at the camera lens. One goes completely to the bottom and the other goes sharply to the side. She has never dropped it and me and my husband went over it with a fine tooth comb. We looked under a magnifying glass and could no find any reason for the glass to crack. Not one ding, scratch or bang. Our daughter really takes good care of her stuff, but we still wanted to make sure before we sent it in for repairs. Well we did and we got a reply from Motorola with a picture of the cracks saying this was customer abuse and that it is not covered under warranty. Even though they did not find any physical damage to back it up. Well I e-mailed them back and told them I did a little research and found pages of people having the same problems. Well I did not hear from them until I received a notice from Fed Ex that they were sending the phone back. NOT FIXED!!! I went to look up why and guess what there is no case open any more for the phone. It has been wiped clean. I put in the RMA # it comes back not found, I put in the ID #, the SN# and all comes back not found. Yet a day earlier all the info was there. I know there is a lot more people like me and all of you, but they just don't want to be bothered so they pay to have it fix, just to have it do it again. Unless they have found the problem and only fixing it on a customer pay only set up. I am furious and will not be recommending this phone to anyone. And to think I was considering this phone for my next up grade! NOT!!!!

    Hey shahbazfromgbr,
    Thanks for the question, and welcome to Apple Support Communities.
    I understand you are having issues with sound output on your iPhone 4S. For troubleshooting steps, the following article provides the best information:
    iPhone: Can't hear through the receiver or speakers
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1630
    1. Verify that there is nothing plugged in to the headset jack, including headsets, headphones, or adapters.
    2. Make sure the Ring/Silent switch is not switched to silent.
    3. While on the Home screen, adjust the volume buttons. If you see the icon below, indicating that headphones are attached, there may be debris or an object lodged in the headset jack:
    4. Check the headset jack. If there is an object lodged in the headset jack that is not easily removed, have the iPhone serviced to remove object.
    5. For Original iPhone: If there is light debris, such as lint, in the headset jack, try connecting a pair of headphones to the headset jack and then remove the headphones. Repeat this several times to remove the debris.
    6. If you have installed a protective film on the display, either ensure that the receiver is not covered or remove the film completely.
    7. Check the receiver mesh (which is on the top front of the device, above the display). If it appears blocked, use a clean, small, dry, soft-bristled brush to carefully and gently brush away any debris.
    8. If you have paired with a Bluetooth headset that is nearby, either use the headset or turn Bluetooth off (choose Settings > General > Bluetooth).
    9. Restart the iPhone.
    10. If restarting the iPhone doesn't resolve the issue, try restoring the device.
    11. If the issue persists, go to the Service Answer Center - iPhone for information on service.
    Thanks,
    Matt M.

    Greeting Hiro, I can hear sound at http://news.yahoo.com/video/ecuador-volcano-erupts-045906534.html. At first, I see a black square, then I see bluish circle, followed by musical notes.Then the screen stays black. I see a black square and then after the video ends, I see in the upper left corner of the black square, a replay icon. I have VLC  version 2.0.3. I tried to see if I have Windows Media Player in Programs and Features and I do  not see it listed. I have Windows Media Center. Thank you for your response. Ldxrunner.

  • HT201177 When I turn my computer on, I can hear it starting up but the screen stays black.  Anyone know how to fix this?

    When I start up my compute, I can hear it starting up but the screen stays black.  Has anyone else had this problem and found a fix?

    If you press the caps lock key does it light up? If it does then this indicates that your system is booting but the display is either not recognized, is not displaying any video, or the display is displaying video but the backlight system is not lighting up. As long as you've tried turning up the brightness then there is not much you can do other than take it in for a diagnosis. If you have a very bright flashlight you can turn on the iMac and then shine the flashlight onto various areas of the iMac display to see if you can see any faint images on the display. If you do then this indicates that the display is displaying the image, but the backlight is not turning on for some reason. It doesn't change the outcome, but at least you can assist the technician who is troubleshooting your iMac.
    Please let us know what you find out.
