HP Envy 14 Beats Edition Equalizer Presets deleted

So I have had my Envy 14 Beats Edition for awhile now (5 months). It has been causing me problems, but the one that is bothering me the most currently is the fact that my Equalizer no longer works.
A few weeks ago I set all settings in my equalizer to max to get the most sound out as I could for a dance session. Since then no matter what I do the equalizer stays at the settings that I changed it to. Even if I changed seperate dB settings (i.e. bass vs highs) the sound still comes out exactly the same.
Beats Studio and Beat Tour presets no longer make a difference either.
Does anyone know a fix to this problem?

Hi,
Open windows Control Panel, open Administrative Tools and open Services. Check that the following services are all showing as Status= Started and Startup Type= Automatic
Audio Service
Multimedia Class Scheduler
Windows Audio
Windows Audio Endpoint Builder
If you need to make a change to any of the above, just right click the service and select Properties, then in the dropdown box next to 'Start-up type', select Automatic and click Apply to save the change. Then click the Start button.
What happens when you try to reinstall the IDT driver using Recovery Manager now?

NO SOUND (I tried everything) ENVY 14 BEATS EDITION

ENVY 14 BEATS EDITION 2001tx
Product #: LZ812PA#ACF
WINDOWS 7 ULTIMATE 64-bit
Service Pack 1
Location: Tokyo
I read through these forums and literaly tried all the solutions, hopefully you will prove me wrong and give me the answers I need.
So my pc went into hibernation and when I woke it up there was no sound. I did the following in no particular order:
- uninstall, re-install audio driver (a million times, a million different ways)
- installed the chipsets
- booted, rebooted several times
- restored pc to 4 days ago
- undated BIOS
Still to no avail, this actually happened once before but I was able to fix it right away, this was a few months ago.
I can see my equalizer move up and down as it moves with youtube or music but there is absolutely no sound coming out the computer nor the external speakers I plug in. No turn on or shut down sounds either, ZERO.
HELP!
Annoyed...

Hello belloblock,
Another document you can follow to try and resolve the issue - No Sound from the Speakers (Windows 7)
I understand that performing a reset can be a nuisance but a hard or forced reset erases all information in the computer's memory which may restore functionality. Resetting your computer forces the system to clear and reestablish the software connections between the BIOS and the hardware.
Performing a hard or forced reset might fix the following conditions:
-Windows stops responding.
-Computer stops before Windows loads - no boot, blinking cursor on a black display, and errors relating to OS not found or a missing drive.
-Display suddenly goes blank and stays blank.
-Software freezes.
-Keyboard stops responding.
-The computer does not return from sleep or suspend mode.
-An external device stops responding. (Turn off the power to that device in addition to performing the steps in this document.)
As you can see, a hard reset although not convenient could resolve the issue you are experiencing and is very much worth a try.
If you're still experiencing issues after the steps that I provided in this post, please click the link below to get the support number for your region:

No sound on HP Envy 14 Beats Edition. Sound disappeared for no apparent reason.

HP Envy 14 Beats Edition laptop (product QE295UA#ABA) running Windows 7 Home Premium version 6.1 (build 7601, service pack 1).
I don't recall running any software updates. I've confirmed that no mute buttons are on. I've tried the Windows troubleshooter for Playing Audio/Speakers and Headphones but the software does not detect any problems. I've tried reinstalling the driver to no avail.

Hi,
Try the following.
Download the IDT Audio installer on the link below and save it to your Downloads folder.
http://ftp.hp.com/pub/softpaq/sp53001-53500/sp53281.exe
When done, open windows Control Panel, open Device Manager and open up Sound, Video and Game Controllers. Right click the IDT device and select Uninstall - you should also get a prompt to remove the current driver, tick the box to allow this and then proceed with the uninstall.
When complete, shut down the notebook.
Tap away at the esc key as you start the notebook to launch the Start-up Menu and then select f10 to enter the bios menu. Press f9 to load the defaults ( this is sometimes f5, but the menu at the bottom will show the correct key ), use the arrow keys to select 'Yes' and hit enter. Press f10 to save the setting and again use the arrow keys to select 'Yes' and hit enter.
Let Windows fully load - it will automatically load an audio driver, but just let this complete. Then open your Downloads folder, right click on the IDT installer and select 'Run as Administrator' to start the installation. When this has completed, right click the speaker icon in the Taskbar and select Playback Devices. Left click 'Speakers and Headphones' once to highlight it and then click the Set Default button - check if you now have audio.

Weird ringing noise when laptop is plugged into AC - HP ENVY 14-2050se Beats Edition Notebook PC

Hi, last month I bought this HP ENVY 14-2050se Beats Edition Notebook from a nearby electronics store and I loved it from first sight. Except a few problems emerged when I first turned it on at home. First, yes I did a full hp recovery factory restore when I got home. It is running Windows 7 Home Premium and I already tried muting the microphone and speakers and it has not solved the problem whatsoever but it only shows up when I have my Envy plugged into AC power, on battery it makes no noises.
The problem is that whenever it is plugged in it makes a weird ringing noise which is very clear and hearable to me and my friends and gives me headaches constantly. The noise is almost identicle to that ringing noise you get in your ears after hearing very loud noises. I tried using my mom's HP ac adapter on my Envy and it still produces the noise so its not the adapter itself im assuming. Also, sometimes when playing music or watching videos on youtube it will hang for a split second or so once every while and make a weird buzzing noise, im assuming that could be normal behavior though and im not as worried about that so much as my other problem.
Any help is greatly appreciated, I just want to enjoy this great laptop!
Sincerely, Lance Shults

Hi, you aren't the only one.
I have a HP Envy, and I have this rining noise as well.
it is odd.
If I had to take a guess (I've been in IT for almost 17 years), I think it might be the power supply for some reason, in the laptop. Not the external supply.
Nearest I can say is it is a fast paced ring/ding.
Is yours similar?

Crackling sound from right speaker - Envy 14 Beats edition

The right speaker on my Envy 14 Beats edition has a crackling/static sound when playing any sort of sound from it. I assumed it was a faulty speaker since its just the right speaker.. I've talked to HP support and they had me send it in.
After two weeks I got it back only to find that they simply changed some audio configurations in an attempt to fix it. Nothing has changed and the problem still exists.
Just wondering if anyone else has had this problem and if there is some sort of fix for this without me having to send it back to them to replace the speaker.

Hello tedebare73. I understand your notebook is making a weird sound from the left speaker.
Are there any other electronic devices (guitar amplifiers, cell phones, speakers) around the notebook? These can all cause very strange noises.
Try hard resetting the notebook as well. Here are the steps.
Shut down the notebook.
Remove the battery and AC power.
Press and hold the power button for 10-15 seconds three times.
Replace the battery and AC power.
Verify whether the problem persists.
Finally, if neither of the above have an effect try removing and reinstalling the driver. Here are instructions.
Go to your Device Manager.
Expand the "Sound, video, and game controllers" section.
Right click on your audio device and select "Uninstall."
Reboot the notebook. Windows will automatically reinstall the driver.
Verify whether the problem persists.
Let me know the results. Have a wonderful day!
Please click the white star under my name to give me Kudos as a way to say "Thanks!"

How to restore deleted iTunes equalizer presets?

I am using iTunes 12 on Windows 8.1 64 bit.
A few years ago, I deleted all the iTunes equalizer presets and made a bunch of custom presets. Despite several upgrades to iTunes, my custom presets have persisted (good on ya Apple). However, I'd like to delete these custom presets and restore the defaults. Is there an easy way to do this without completely erasing my library?

For uscsparticus, there's a question for you:
If is saved from iCloud, you'll be able to get back or not?

Is there a way to set equalizer presets to multiple songs or podcasts?

I listen to lots of podcast novels containing many chapters, where each chapter is a separate, weekly podcast. I'd like to set all podcast novel chapters to my user-created "podcast story" equalizer setting. Is there a way I can set the equalizer setting to multiple podcasts at once? As it is, I'm setting each podcast/chapter one by one and it is a pain in the butt. I'd like to set 10 at a time. Is there a way to do this? Thanks in advance for any help!

Select the tracks you'd like to edit, hit cmd-i (Get Info), and go to the Options tab. From there you can specify an equalizer preset for your selection.
Hope that helps,
John

Equalizer presets don't work in iTunes 11

Equalizer presets don't seem to be working in iTunes 11. I try selecting a number of them and they don't do anything. Anyone else having that problem?

So the latest itunes update, 11.0.1, seems to have corrected the equalizer preset bug we were having. But is has replaced it with another minor one. Since the update, any songs i have purchased from the itunes store are now un-editable upon immediate download. (This includes not being able to set the eq.) All the options are greyed-out. However I found that closing itunes, and reopening appears to correct the problem, and make the song editable again. Strange.
It's an easy work around, but it's still inconvenient to constantly have to shut and open the program.
I just thought I'd check to see if you're experiencing a similar problem.
Thanks.

You can try ordering the Recovery media from HP, which unfortunately, is the only option left if you want to factory reset the system & bring back all the factory ppartitions again:

Beats Audio Equalizer

I have (2) ENVY17 2000 Notebooks both built in 2011. The Beats Audio Equalizer Panels are completely different. One has a very useful output graph that makes it easy to fine tune the panel's Hz slide tabs for maximum enjoyment. The other has no such graph, just the slide tabs along with a "feature" module to dial in things like echo, noise reduction, or to boost vocal output. Can the preloaded one that I don't like be reloaded with the one I do??

I too have the Envy and the same set up. I know that there just must be a better piece of software-- by Beats?-- to run the very substantial speakers in this system. Everything is turned up as loudly as it can be, all slides full open, but it still sounds quite muted to my ear.
If anyone knows of a better driver for the HP Envy with Beats Audio, please reply? thank you!!

Beats Audio equalizer frozen

I have an HP Envy 17-j034ca Notebook PC with Beats Audio.
I recently did an upgrade to Windows 8.1/ 64 bit. The new ADT audio driver appears to have over ridden the Beats Audio equalizer and it has become inoperable. (the sound works but Beats not beating.)
Should I roll back the ADT driver? Is this the best solution? Thanks

I see that you are missing your Beats Audio equalizer after upgrading to Windows 8.1. I will be happy to assist you with this. You can try rolling back the driver to see if that restores the Beats Audio for your. If that doesn't work try installing this IDT High-Definition Audio Driver in case Windows just installed a generic driver.

Lost Equalizer Presets

I've been using my iPod and iTunes for nearly two years now. I have created many equalizer presets in iTunes in the past, and have never had any problem with them.
Today, when I loaded up iTunes, all my saved equalizer presets were gone! Athough the names of all the presets I had previously created were still assigned to specific songs, the actual equalizer settings themselves - along with the names of those presets - are missing from the "Equalizer" panel.
So, I upgraded my version of iTunes to the latest release, but my presets were still not appearing. As a test, I then deleted a few of the "core" presets and set up a couple of new ones, but when I exited iTunes and brought it back up again, the new presets I had created were gone, and all the original "core" preset selections were again available.
So, it doesn't appear as though my presets are operating properly, nor am I able to store new ones. How can I go about fixing this problem?
Thank you in advance for any assistance anyone can provide.

Actually, I managed to answer this myself with a bit of additional research here on the site. The instructions provided by the link below provides a solution:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=607357&#607357
It was a pain to have to recreate all my Equalizer presets and reassign them to all of my songs, but at least the act of deleting the "Preference" files and allowing iTunes to recreate them worked. Now, I'm making regular backups of these files, so that if they ever become corrupt again, I will have a previous version which I can use to restore them.
