Help... Another microphone problem

I bought Logic Express yesterday, along with a Blue snowball microphone. The mic doesn't need to be installed, once you plug it in its supposed to work... but it doesn't. But the mic isn't the problem because the mic works in Garageband. What should I do?
Thanks

Hi,
if you want to record something in Logic, the small square "R" button on the track you want to record on should be red. Otherwise Logic can't know what tracks you want to record: you may want to record more than one track simultaniously. In Garageband, the red button is there, too, but Garageband will make it red automatically when you select a track.
Should the little "R" button be missing, check View > Configure Track Header to make it appear.
kind regards,
Jaap

Help - Internal Microphone Problem Toshiba Satellite M305-S4910

Hello,
I really hope someone can help me. 2 days ago I bought a Toshiba Satellite M305-S4910 after reading rave reviews on BestBuy.com. After attempting to use the internal microphone I discovered the following problem.
When I am on a video chat, it sounds like there is a lot of static on the line. As soon as I plug in a headset, the sound goes away. I called best buy for the free 14 day support and they said I have two options. Bring it in to exchange for a new laptop or PAY for a service person to come troubleshoot it for me. I have spent the last 3 days transferring files, loading programs, and now I have just about everything set up on this laptop. I do not want to go EXCHANGE it for a new one and do that all over again. I can reload software if its something simple like that. Does anyone have any ideas how I can diagnose and possibly repair myself? Part of the reason I liked this one is the built in mic and webcam since I video chat A LOT!
Thanks

Hi,
Since that the problem goes away with the use of external mic, it is very likely that the internal mic is malfunctioning or maybe a loose wire to the mic is causing the problem. Fixing these yourself means taking the notebook apart and possibly voiding your warranty.

Welcome to Apple Support Communities
When you try to copy data to the external drive, what happens? If you don't see any error, the external drive is formatted in NTFS, and OS X can't write in it.
To be able to write on this external drive, you have to use an app like Paragon NTFS. Another solution would be to format the external drive in FAT32 or exFAT with Disk Utility > http://pondini.org/OSX/DU1.html Make sure you copied all the files of the external disk to the internal disk before doing it

Is this happing because the external is formatted to PC and not mac?
Yes that is correct.
Will I need to get a mac external hard drive if I wish to continue to save my documents like this?
If you no longer use a PC you could format this drive for the Mac. However be aware that formatting a drive will erase all the data on it. So you would need someplace to copy the data off this drive to while you did the re-format and then you could copy the data back.
You could get another drive, format it for the Mac and copy the data to it. Then re-format the original drive and use it as a backup drive. Always good to have backups.
Post back with the drive type and size of the current drive, if you are doing backups now and how and if you still need to access this drive from a PC.

Hi,
If you don't already have one, use another PC to create a Windows 7 Rescue CD. Download the relevant ISO from the links below.
Windows 7 32bit
Windows 7 64bit
You should use an application such as ImgBurn to burn the ISO to a CD - a guide on using ImgBurn to write an ISO to a disc is Here. Once created, or if you already have this, tap away at the esc key as you start the notebook to enter the Start-up Menu. Insert the Rescue CD. Select Boot options ( usually f9 ), use the arrow keys to select the CD/DVD drive and hit enter. You may also get a prompt to 'Press any key to continue' - do this if asked.
When loaded, select Repair Your Computer and choose the Command Prompt. When this loads, enter the following commands and hit enter after each one - include spaces as shown.
Bootrec.exe
bcdedit /export C:\BCD_Backup
c:
cd boot
attrib bcd -s -h -r
ren c:\boot\bcd bcd.old
bootrec /RebuildBcd
bootrec /fixmbr
bootrec /fixboot
Remove the Rescue CD and try rebooting the notebook.

Re: Microphone problems when I use Skype

Could anybody help with the problems that I'm experiencing with the microphone when using Skype?
I have also tried to use an external one but still having problems with the other person not being able to hear me, is there a setting which I can adjust its been back to Toshiba and they said that there is no fault.
Any help would be appreciated.

Hi MCFARGL,
I have even tested Skype and it seems that everything works properly.
Furthermore I miss some important informations You write nothing about your operating system, notebook model, Skype version, headset, drivers, etc.
Maybe its still enough if you enable the microphone boost. Check the Windows sound settings (input devices). There you configure the microphone volume and enable microphone boost.

Pavilion G7 1365dx internal microphone problems (skype).

I just purchased this notebook and when I tried to use Skype, everything works except the other person can't hear me. Mic is enabled and not muted. Internal Mic (IDT High Definition Audio CODEC). System checked for updated drivers, system said drivers are up to date. Thank you in advance for your help.

Hello @Pistaba1975,
Welcome to the HP Forums, I hope you enjoy your experience! To help you get the most out of the HP Forums I would like to direct your attention to the HP Forums Guide First Time Here? Learn How to Post and More.
I have read your post on how the microphone on your notebook is enabled, but will not record any audio on Skype. I would be happy to assist you in this matter!
Are you able to record audio using a different program on your computer? Were you able to record audio from Skype in the past?
In the meantime, I recommend following the steps in this document on Resolving microphone problems (Windows 8). This should help enable the audio-in when using the microphone.
Additionally, I also suggest following this resource on Microphone Troubleshooter to ensure that your Skype software is communicating the audio being transmitted to your audio-in device.
Please re-post with the results of your troubleshooting, as well as the requested information above. I look forward to your reply!

Microphone problem

Hello. I recently bought my Xperia Z3 compact. Its a great phone..except the awful microphone problem. I bought it a week ago and 3 days ago I made the mistake to update to Android 5.1.1. Before that, I didnt have the problem.Anyway, the problem - when I hold my phone to my ear the other person doesn`t hear me, when I turn it to speaker they hear me perfectly. Sometimes it`s the other way around - speaker doesn`t work, the other person can hear me when I hold it close to my ear (this happens rarely).I tried the Internet fixes, none work. Maybe you can give me some solutions as I asked Sony to give me another Xperia and they told me that it has to go to them 3 times with the same issue.Cheers

I'm sorry to hear that, you could repair the phone with PCC, if that doesn't work then you will have to contact your local Xperia Care PC Companion (PCC) Bridge (for Mac) Alternatives on How to backup Xperias http://talk.sonymobile.com/thread/36355 http://support.sonymobile.com/global-en/contactUs/

Another battery problem...any advice???

Hi everyone!
I've been reading some of the issues that were posted here. I also replaced my battery through the recall program last year. I have noticed recently that my battery only gets max 1 hour when it used to get almost 4 hours. I checked using Coconut battery and it says my capacity is only 25% of the original. Actually I mostly use my Mac plugged in. I just reconditioned the battery yesterday by draining it all the way, removing it and putting it back, then charging it all the way again and the results are the same. Also it's worth noting that I noticed this problem after switching to Leopard. When I was still on Tiger my battery seemed to be fine although I can't say with 100% certainty that it's the cause. Anyways does anyone have any more advice or do I just need to call AppleCare? Thing is I live in the Philippines and replacing the battery is not as easy as in some other areas...
Thanks in advance for your help!
Reg

Same problem. I will set my laptop down and come back and the light around the power cable is no longer glowing. I tried a couple different outlets and even installed it in a different surge protector. The weird thing is all I have to do is unplug the part of the adapter that is plugged into the wall or surge protector and plug it back in and it comes back on. Or just turn off the power switch on the surge protector and turn it back on.
I am almost 100% sure this is do to leopard. I just installed OS X 10.5.2 toward the end of last week going from tiger. Just started to notice the power problems the Yesterday and today. My battery life does not seem to be as good as it was with tiger or panther. Still better than what most of you report. I think I got 4 hours out of it yesterday. Also, I got a replacement power adapter under apple care less than a year ago. I have never had this issues in the over 3 years I have had this powerbook until yesterday.
This is the first time I have upgraded to a new operating system this early in the release and I feel it has been a waste of time and money so far. As a matter of fact my laptop is performing fairly well other than the problems mentioned above. However, my wife is graphic designer and her apps would open and do basis things ok but when it came time to collect for output or do a Print as PDF high res comercial print quality there was no way. We will have to spend another 600 to upgrade for adobe CS2 to CS3 and there is still no guarantee it will work. Freehand will probably not be updated to work with le0pard.
So I spent several hours doing a erase and install the old operating system so she could get her jobs out. We reinstalled everything. Like I said, not a good decision to go to leopard so far. I am going to stick with it unless more problems come up or my power adapter keeps acting up.

Please help with slideshow problems!

Am using Photoshop Elements 8 and trying to make a slideshow. Have tried 4 times now and keep ending up with same problem, cannot reopen project to continue edititing. Won't show up in orginizer and when I find on harddrive and try to open get message " wmv file cannot be opened". How can I save a
slideshow inprogress and be able to reopen and continue to edit and make slideshow? I want to thank anyone who can help me with this in advance as I
have gotten so frustrated that I want to just scream.
Thanks

Thanks for the help, thought I had done so but maybe not. Anyway will have another go at it, now may I ask another
question? I am trying to add audio to slideshow. I have some music I purchased thru amazon as mp3 files but I get
message no codec and when I try to add wmv I get same message. What type of file do I need and how can I add
multiple songs to one slideshow. I have one little wmv file that will go in, but it just replicates itself multiple times until
it fills slide show.
Thanks again, sorry to be a bother, but this thing is driving this old man crazy.

Subject: Please help with slideshow problems!
You need to save the slideshow project in order to be able to go back later and make changes or additions to an existing slideshow . The wmv file is a final output format.
Now you are most probably using only the Output command: that is what makes the wmv file.
You should also do the Save Project command. (and I make it a practice to do the Save Project command before I do the Output command).
If you look at the Elements Organizer 8 Help, there is a topic on "Create a slide show".
-- Very close to the beginning of that topic is a screen shot of the Sldie Show Editor screen,
-- The bar below the usual menu bar is labeled with a "B" and called the Shortcuts bar.
-- The 1st entry on that Shortcuts bar is "Save Project"
It is the Save Project command that saves the information about which photos, audio, etc you placed in that specific slide show so that you can come back again to do subsequent editing. Save each Project with a unique name.
After completing the Save Project command, you shoud see an "icon" in the Organizer for that slide show.
Note: you must also keep the photo files and audio files which you have used in this slide show: you can't delete them because the project file does NOT contain a copy of the photos, it only has the identification and folder location of the photo and audio files.

Need help with getResource() problem under weblogic 6.1

Hey all,
          I've got a serious problem that I can't figure out. This should be really
          simple - but it's alluding me. I have an ear file with a number of servlets
          inside it. This ear file also contains a resource that my servlets want to
          read from. This resource is located (within the ear file) at:
          "/content/structure/a.txt". The file contains raw ascii.
          To have my serlvet read from this file, I thought it would be as simple as:
          URL content =
          servlet.getServletContext().getResource("/content/structure/a.txt");
          // pw is an instance of PrintWriter
          pw.print(content.getContent());
          However, when I execute the above I get the following exception:
          java.lang.NullPointerException
          at
          java.net.URLConnection.stripOffParameters(URLConnection.java:1011)
          at java.net.URLConnection.getContentHandler(URLConnection.java:979)
          at java.net.URLConnection.getContent(URLConnection.java:581)
          OK, so fine - I figure that I'm new to this. The documentation for the URL
          class tells me there is another way around this. It says that rather then
          calling getContent() directly, I can open a stream on the URL and read from
          that, like so:
          URL content =
          servlet.getServletContext().getResource("/content/structure/scenario2resourc
          es.txt");
          FileInputStream fis = content.openStream();
          but when I do this I get the following different exception:
          java.lang.ClassCastException: weblogic.utils.zip.SafeZipFileInputStream^M
          at Utility.writeFileToOutput(Utility.java:134)^M
          Apparently this thing is trying to return a web-logic-specific stream (which
          is incompatible with an FileInputStream) - which I don't want to use or
          learn about since I want my stuff to work under other webservers.
          Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong? This should be simple.

Wenjin,
          I appreciate your response. I tried treating it as a normal InputStream -
          but it didn't make any difference. Here's what I did:
          URL content =
          servlet.getServletContext().getResource("/content/structure/scenario2resourc
          es.txt");
          InputStream is = (InputStream)content.getContent();
          And here's the exception:
          java.lang.NullPointerException^M
          at
          java.net.URLConnection.stripOffParameters(URLConnection.java:1011)^M
          at
          java.net.URLConnection.getContentHandler(URLConnection.java:979)^M
          at java.net.URLConnection.getContent(URLConnection.java:554)^M
          at java.net.URL.getContent(URL.java:807)^M
          at Utility.writeFileToOutput(Utility.java:134)^M
          You can see that it is definitely breaking somewhere in getContent().
          If you have any other ideas, I'd appreciate hearing about them.

HP Split x2 Microphone Problems

Using an HP Split x2 over skype. A variable hissing noise occurs which reaches a point that it drowns out audio, then it will abate and then build back up again. It begins building during pauses in conversation and then begins to slowly diminish as we talk. Have tried moving the tablet to various locations to see if it is interference from other device. Does not sound like traditional feed back. Any suggestions on how to resolve this problem? Thanks!

Hello Pondering92. I understand you are experiencing microphone problems on Windows 8, when using Skype. Does this issue only occur on Skype, or on other programs? If it only occurs on Skype, try uninstalling and reinstalling the program.
If it occurs on multiple programs, and you followed all the troubleshooting in this HP document, you could be experiencing faulty hardware. Since the product is in warranty, I would contact HP technical support for servicing.
You can utilize this website to learn how to contact HP appropriately, based on your region: http://www8.hp.com/us/en/contact-hp/ww-contact-us.html
Please let me know if you have any other questions or concerns. I'm only here to help!

Help required - a problem receiving SMS from some ...

Is anyone alble to help resolve a problem with text messages to and from a land line phone please. Are there any long standing issues sending and receiving texts between certain mobile phone providers as I have been having problems for some time. I can send and receive texts to and from the land line between old style mobile phones on 02 and another provider. Some months ago a relative using Orange (I think) was able to receive messages from my land line perfectly OK and then suddenly received them with no message content. They contacted their provider who could not find a problem. During this weekend a contact using Virgin network has sent a text to the land line which I have not received at all. They informed me by email and I sent them a test text from the land line which they have received OK. They sent a reply back to the land line which again I have not received. They have contacted their provider who has checked all connections at Virgin and there doesn't appear to be a problem. Could someone inform me what is the likely cause of the problem, ie mobile network not recognising land line numbers as capable of receiving SMS messages, the BT SMS system, or my text enabled phone. I look forward to any suggestions. With many thanks.

Hi Redlollipop
Did you get any resolution to your problem? Sorry to ask so late after your post, but my mother has had a similar fault since March this year - she can send text messages to all networks on her sms-enabled landline BUT cannot receive replies from the Virgin/T-Mobile/EE group!
Virgin say the messages are blocked by BT - however after exhaustive tests BT say that the problem must be with Virgin! Virgin reply that they can "do no more" because it is not their fault, BT say they can "do no more" because the problem with BT Text only occurs with that particular network...
I have found it impossible to get either side to talk to each other rather than through me, so I am now preparing to involve the Ombudsman service in the hope that they may be able to at least initiate discussions between the technical experts on both sides.
Many thanks!!

I don't know why it stopped working but it happened a month or two ago but the option on this phone that's usually all the way to the left when you select your device but now its not and I don't know what caused it. ive already tried troubleshooting my problem but have found no help.

Hello Salmomma,
Thank you for the details of the issue you are experiencing when trying to connect your iPhone to your Mac. I recommend following the steps in the tutorial below for an issue like this:
