How can I get my sound settings back to where they were initially. I lost my default device somehow.

I was trying to listen to my music via my Bluetooth Bose speaker and I could not make that work. I went to Control Panel>Sound>Playback, and chose my default device, selected Properties, then Don't Use This Device, at which time my default device disappeared and all of the sound from my computer stopped.  Please help.

  • Problems getting programs and settings back to where they were before A/I

    I had to do an archive and install because the OS X 10.4.9 update messed up my system. I am now back on my MAC with v.10.4.8. The problem now is that some of my applications are acting weird. They aren't loading up the settings they should be. I tried copying the Library folder onto my MAC HD root directory and tried to replace the new one that was there and it didn't let me do it because it errored. First it said you will need to type in your administrator password in order to replace the Library folder then, right after, it said an unexpected error occurred? How do I go about getting these settings and these programs functioning again. Guitar Rig and EZdrummer won't load up when I start logic it says they can't be found or something, and I tried replaced just the Audio folder in the Library folder and it wound up not working right and now that folder is empty. I still have all the archived files in the Previous Systems folder in the root directory on my MAC HD. Can anyone help me?

  • My NEW Iphone 4 'restored' to my 3rd generation Ipod touch. How can I get the old settings back?

    Please Help! I just got an IPhone 4 today from work and I wanted to 'sync' my IPod touch apps to the Iphone and it 'restored' to my OLD 3G Ipod Touch settings! How can I get it back to what it was when I received it from work? My work email account is completely GONE and it was already all set up when I recieved the phone. I am extremely worried that I won't be able to go back to what it was! PLease please tell me I can restore it back to how it was....with my email account all set up and everything. I would appreciate any help I can get...I just can't believe I did this!!! THANK YOU!

    Unless the device was backed up prior to restoring the backup from the iPod Touch, there is nothing to restore.
    Just set up the email account again... it's not difficult, but you may need information from your corporate IT dept to set it up.

  • How can I get Normal video settings back

    Before I launch into describing the problem, I thought I would tell you that I really had hoped it would have been a common problem, and therefore went through about 12 pages of topics and problems before I decided to open a new topic. The closest thing I found was from someone who apparently experienced part of my problem - a shifting of the screen.
    What I really need to know in lieu of a specific solution to the specific problem is to know how to get back to Default settings for monitor display. Something I did screwed things up. I am not even sure precisely what I did to mess it up, because I actually did several things that could have contributed. But, the end result of what I did was that my screen font display looks wierd, and not normal. I have an ATI video card, and I hit Detect display, so it flashed off and then back on. What is the setting that the display is normally set on. I have tried various solutions, but can't seem to get back to where it once was. I would presume that a reinstall of OS X would do the trick but that seems too radical of a solutioni. Any ideas? Thanks in advance.

    Hi-
    What is the setting that the display is normally set on
    You didn't say what display you are using.
    Try a new user account. Everything will be at default in the new account.

  • How can I get my apple ID back if my ID were stolen and all of my personal information were changed

    I recently found out if someone else stolen my apple ID then he can login my account on apple's website and change almost every information, like my first and last name, my apple ID, my password, my security question and my birthday... Those information are used for resetting password and retrieving the apple ID, if they were all changed by some thief how is that possible for me to get my apple id back? Is there any way to protect my apple id in case of this kind of things really happen?

  • How can I get my sound notifications to work?  They used to but have stopped.  I get the banner alerts.  I have checked in Settings - Sound and the volume is at max.  Help please.

    For some reason the sound notifications on my iPad mini have stopped.  I still get banner alerts but that is it.  I have checked Settings - Sounds and the ringer and alerts setting is at max.  I have updated the IOS system.  Not sure what else to do.

    Unlock can be done only by original Carrier. You should get
    this straightened out before leaving Canada. Warranty on your

    you will have to return iPhone to Canada for this to be done.

  • After upgrad to 5.0.1 all apps and all my music is lost, how can i get my old settings back

    Everything is gone after the update, there are no apps on the ipod, neither on or in itunes

    That happens when you do the update on a computer when the apps and media (e.g., music) are not in the iTunes library.
    You need to go to the computer with the pass and media and restore from the last backup you have on the computer.
    You can also redownload most iTunes purchases by:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

    I suppose ya.  If she deletes my account from her iPad it won't affect my account, right? 
    Yes, that's correct, it won't affect your account or your devices in any way.
    Use the delete account button in the iCloud settings.
    Then enter her iCloud details in the new screen that appears and log in. She should then be returned to the screen above but with her Apple ID at the top, enable the services she wishes to use and then tap the storage & backup option and ensure that iCloud backup is turned on.

    How can I get the blue dot back that id's unread mail?

    Yes We have an iMac with the same account.  They  have both worked fine for the year that we have owned an iPad.  I think I have solved the problem.  I went  into mail settings and turned off push.  Then I  reset the iPad.  Upon reopening, I turned  push on again.  At least for the last 15 minutes, I have a blue dot bt new mail.  Many thanks for taking the time to help me, Matthew.

    How can I get my 25 pounds back. It's been stolen from my itunes account to buy KingdomConquest stuff. I' ve been hacked via itunes - I had a prepaid card in there.
    I work in it, am very careful, and this is the first time since 1985 when i starter using i.t. That i've been hacked. Thank you apple. It seems like a very common problem with apple.
    What's the email address i should use to get my money back and report it ? As usual the apple phone lines don' t answer, an they make life as difficult as possible for anyone to gt redress.

    It's most likely not you, no matter what they say. I have noticed a LOT of fraud with itunes, even with my own account. One time I caught them doing a database restore. I know this because my password automagically reverted back to an old one! I'm an IT guy who helped design DOD classified networks in the mid-pacific. I know security. The best protection for this is to NOT have a credit card listed in iTunes. Use iTunes cards ONLY. It's a pain, but until they step up, it's all you got.
