Headset controls will not work?

For some reason, my headset's controls (Play/Pause, Vol UP, Vol Down) will not work with my iTunes. I have tried other headsets too so it is not my headset that is malfunctioning. I have tried my headset on a friend's iTunes and it works perfectly as well. I am not quite sure what is wrong with my iTunes but no headset's controls will control the iTunes. The iTunes version is 10.6.1. Any ideas? I've searched some of the forums but I didn't see any pertaining to my model of MacBook Pro.

A restore would have rule out the possibility of a software glitch or data corruption on the device. So at this point we can be pretty certain that it is a hardware issue with the iPod. As to what exactly, there is no certain way of telling.
You'll need to take or send your iPod in for service/replace either through Apple or a third party service.

I inherited an 2003 ipod from my daughter. The controls will not work when it is plugged into a power source. Can anyone help?

I inherited a 2003 ipod from my daughter. The controls will not work when it is plugged into a power source. Can anyone help?

But they work normally when not plugged in? What kind of power source are you plugging it into? It maybe outputting more than what the iPod can handle. I had this happen to an iPod I plugged into a powerstrip that was plugged into the cigarette lighter in a vehicle an experienced the same thing.

Face controls will not work

I have a 3G 40 gig iPod, I think. It's the one with the four touch buttons under the screen and the touch scroll wheel underneath those. Anyway, they have lost all sensitivity, even making it impossible for me to reset it by holding down the play/pause and menu buttons. The scroll wheel works, but very badly as I have to make an entire revolution in order to get the volume to go up one notch. There are also instances where it will click like crazy, or it will continously reverse through the tracks. I had this problem yesterday, and I just kept pressing buttons until it finally remedied itself, but now it's stuck again. Little help? By the way, I have tried several times turning the hold switch on and off and that just doesn't help.
EDIT: Well, I finally got it to function again by pressing extremely hard on the select button. Even though functionality has been restored, this just does not seem normal. I think I have something wrong with my iPod. Has anyone else experienced a problem like this?

I am having a similar problem. My 4G was having this problem on the click wheel, then progressed to showing the wrong times in the calendar, then progressed to needing a hard reset (holding down select and menu) to start each time, and now is dead. It shows the low battery screen, even though I just charged it. I have done a complete software restore three times over the past month, and the progression of problems continued to this point (dead iPod). I am at a loss as to how to proceed.

Will not come on and if it does the controls will not work

Have tried resetting. Restoring to factory settings. Battery shows to be charged. Do not know what else to try...

ActiveX control is not working with windows NT

I've have a stand alone application which uses an activeX control. The application was compiled using Labview 7.1 on a Windows XP machine. The application will run without any problems on Windows XP and Windows 2000, however the activeX control will not work with Windows NT 4.0. The activeX control is registered, and I have also compiled the application on a Windows NT 4.0 machine. I do not receive any error messages, the application will start but will not communicate with the activeX control. Does anyone have any suggestions?

Hello,
Have you tired running the VI by itself (not exe) on the NT machine? Make sure you are doing adequate error checking in your code. It could be possible that the application is generating an error which in not handled appropriately. Also which service pack do you have installed on the NT machine? Please look at the release notes for LabVIEW 7.1 here.

Controls do not work

Hi there,
can anyone tell me why all of a sudden iTunes will not proceed to the next song when playing music? Top left hand controls nor keyboard controls will not work either.
Reinstall of software does not help.
thx
darius

head into the main library screen. are all the little boxes to the left of the track names unchecked?
if so, hold down control and click one of the boxes to do a "recheck all". (this may take a wee while.)
after that, are you back getting continuous play again?

My ipod nano click wheel will not work - Ipod works when docked on mobile speakers from remote control

My ipos Nano click wheel will not work, however when it is docked on mobile speakers it will work from the remote control.

If it continues to malfunction after a restore, it's probably bad hardware.
I'd recommend making a Genius Bar appointment. They'll probably give you a couple options: Replace it with an identical model for a discounted price, or trade it in for recycling and get 10% off a new iPod.

running IE 11 with registry hack for IE 9. I think the SL5 webbrowser control is set to work only in IE 7. can some one verify this or tell me how to set the WebBrowser control up to run either IE8, 9, 10 or 11? I have same issue with machines running IE 8
and above. This Silverlight 5 application is running out of browser with the elevated privileges (hack) and at test certificates install in proper stores. This application has been running for 2.5 years. Vender switch on some changes a couple days ago that
broke this application. Help!!

Hi,
It seems there is nothing to do with IE mode.
Please make sure your link still can be accessed.
The WebBrowser displays HTML content in applications running in a Silverlight 4 or later out-of-browser applications or in Silverlight 5 in-browser trusted applications only.

After upgrading to maverick my epson WF-2540 scanner will not work. There are no upgrades showing so what do I do?

After I upgraded to Maverick my Epson WF-2504 scanner will not work. There is no software update showing necessary either. I have gone to the Epson website but it doesn't offer a download. It tells me to go to "software update" ??? Any suggestions?

Thanks Arthur,
I was hoping for a good bubble bursting, but I tried that HP "update" as soon as my printer stopped responding. I really really wanted my bubble popped.
One needs the Apple supplied driver for this work. It will not work because the driver to basically function on the updated Mavericks is not supplied by Apple Updates, so the HP driver that stops printing an extra page is rendered useless. I spent, wasted two days going back and forth between Support threads, HP chat and on the phone, through all the Mac channels where I was told that the 2011 HP was antique. HP said Apple had the drivers. So, they pointed a finger at one another with this unlucky customer caught in the crossfire. HP said Mac did it and Mac said HP did it. BOOM ! goes the guy in between who spent a good bit of money to have good equipment. What is wrong with expecting a printer to last beyond 3 years, or for a back up drive to last more than 3 years?
I do appreciate the attempt to help though. It was here in Discussions where I was guided to the gimp driver, drivers which in the past always worked when needed but in this case something wicked about Mavericks prevents it from working. No matter how many times HP says it works on their site all you have to do is try and then speak with customer service to find out that in a parellel universe this may logically hold. It does not hold here. If it were the case that by working in Lion it would work in Mavericks then there must be something wrong with me. But why, APPLE, is it that one day it works, do the update and then it does not when Lion was the previous OS? I did Everything, every single thing recommended by people who had good ideas and wanted to help but all too often the facts tell us nothing of the world. Facts are tools used to decieve, the world is where it works or does not work and in this case Mavericks has cost me close to $300. Probably not a big deal in some cases, but money is money. When it is gone it is gone.
I followed the complete uninstall, going into library and removing all HP, then restarting and lo and behold HP driver for 4500 not only was not present but along the way my 500gig back up drive died, as in dead, nothing.
Of course I will not buy another HP product. If you go to the list of drivers Mac says it carries the HP Officejet 4500 wireless may be present but is not carried by Apple. I have tried Apple update over and over. What I have done is wasted my time and money. In one fell update I lost a printer and a back up drive. No storms, no loss of electricity, no boogie men lurking, no malware, no gremlins, nothing but an innocent customer updating when Apple said "update". Sure it is serendipity that both my printer and back up drive died on the same day at the same time following the Mavericks update. Who am I but a loyal customer? I must be stupid because my equipment stopped responding after the update. It is not new that there are bugs and glitches following updates. I was a beta tester for OS X, it wiped my computer clean, but I understood, it was beta.
A friend told me the same about planned obsolescence in that since printers are cheap and ink is expensive they don't really care about customer satisfaction. Three years old is antique, out of date. We should and must all be angered by this hatred for the customer shown by manufacturers across the board. Blaming the customer is ridiculous and absurd but not unheard of, in fact it has become the rule of thumb from the other side. The customer is innocent. All we want is to buy premium equipment and to have it behave in a manner befitting the cost. I am an Apple user since 1994. I designed a restaurant on a 333 mhz black and white Mac. You know, the big floppy disc one. I am not new to Apple. Fiercely loyal for 20 years. This is the most angered I have been by the flippant attitude shown to us all.
Thank you for giving the links and hopeful advice. I tried them all when I first had the troubles. The good people in discussions, not the Apple plants, but the users, tried their best. I thought that by coming back later there would be updates and new links that would help. But no. Maybe one day. HP lost a customer, it means nothing to any of the manufacturers when a customer is ridiculed by their cynical attitude towards the customer. Maybe there will be someone else to come along here that has had similar experiences and found a way to fix. Used to be a gimp driver could do the trick. Used to be a way. I fear we lose control of our equipment more and more every day. This is not a rant. It is a somewhat sad expression of having been ripped off. Discussions here have helped in the past but the more things advance the less we matter. And as in the past when I was mad about an Apple failure a member sent a fix and I printed the fix for others to use in return. We help one another in the best of ways. Please spread the word, maybe there will be a fix to show up here sometime. I kissed my iOmega back up drive and the 500 gigs of writings, photos, backups and music goodbye, gone forever, poof! But the HP printer is still here on my desk. I don't want to give up hope.

H8-1287 Beats Audio controls do not work in Windows 8.1

I've upgraded to Windows 8.1 and installed the IDT High-Definition audio driver from HP's website. The surround sounds seems to be working but the controls do not work to modify the EQ etc. I've seen the problem has been resolved for Envy laptops but all the links for the software appear to only be for the notebooks and not compatible with my desktop system. I've downloaded the available software (IDT High-Definition Audio driver) found under my HPE HI-1287 product from HP's support site but the Beats audio control panel doesn't seem to make any sound quality changes. Hopefully there is a driver somewhere compatible with my desktop system that allows controling the audio properly. Thanks.

Hello @KICR,
I understand that the Beats Audio Console is not adjusting the audio settings on your HP Pavilion HPE h8-1287c Desktop PC running Windows 8.1. According to the HP Pavilion HPE h8-1287c Desktop PC Drivers page there are no Windows 8.1 drivers for your computer. I can only assume that this means your computer is currently using Windows default drivers or Windows 8 drivers and the Beats Audio Console is not able to interact properly with the currently installed driver.
All I can recommend is that you check back periodically to the drivers page I linked above and see if Windows 8.1 drivers have been created. Other than that your only option at this time would be to use the HP Support document: Using Microsoft System Restore (Windows 8) to restore your computer back to Windows 8 where the Beats Audio Console has drivers that are compatible.
I hope this helps. Thank you for posting on the HP Forums. Have a great day!

Software Issues - Troubleshooting
Try a restart.
Do a backup, using either Time Machine or a cloning program, to ensure files/data can be recovered. Two backups are better than one.
Try setting up another admin user account to see if the same problem continues. If Back-to-My Mac is selected in System Preferences, the Guest account will not work. The intent is to see if it is specific to one account or a system wide problem. This account can be deleted later.
Isolating an issue by using another user account
Try booting into the Safe Mode using your normal account. Disconnect all peripherals except those needed for the test. Shut down the computer and then power it back up after waiting 10 seconds. Immediately after hearing the startup chime, hold down the shift key and continue to hold it until the gray Apple icon and a progress bar appear and again when you log in. The boot up is significantly slower than normal. This will reset some caches, forces a directory check, and disables all startup and login items, among other things. When you reboot normally, the initial reboot may be slower than normal. If the system operates normally, there may be 3rd party applications which are causing a problem. Try deleting/disabling the third party applications after a restart by using the application un-installer. For each disable/delete, you will need to restart if you don’t do them all at once.

iCloud will not work on my PC. When I boot my PC I get an error saying, "The Procedure Entry Point sqlite3_wall_checkpoint in the dynamic link library SQLite3.dll". How do I fix this?

I'd first try uninstalling and reinstalling your MobileMe control panel, dc. Does that clear the message up?
