HP ENVY TouchSmart 4 Ultrabook - Sound and Video Lags and Distortions

This issue has been previously reported and noted as solved, but it is not solved. See the link to the other post below.
Ways in which I attempted to address this myself...
I first re-installed all drivers and updates, including BIOS updates. After that didn't fix the problem, I did a full wipe/re-install of windows 8, and again, updated all drivers from the HP website. This issue happens on both Windows 8 and Windows 8.1. I then did an exchange, and even the new exchange ultrabook is experiencing this issue. HP technicians, there is something faulty with this device. Please acknowledge and address ASAP.

I dont get sound for videos, games and music but ringtone still works. When i press volume buttons on side of phone i only get the picture of the nell and no little dots underneath. This is on my iphone 4s and ipad. It happened at the same time.

Recurring theme with the 4s losing alerts except for the phone ringing. Most complaints seem to center on the 7.1 upgrade. The fix is dodgy, putting in a charger, playing a you tube video then pulling out the charger and wiggling it until you get the sound back. When you get the sound back, the volume buttons start to work again. Alternate solutions involve cleaning the docking port with a toothbrush, running a pick over the electrodes etc.

My iphone 4 microphone won't record sound on video clips and doesn't work with Skype

This is the first time I have used the forum. My iphone4 microphone won't record sound on video clips, and won't work with Skype.

I have checked that I have the latest software. I have restarted phone. I am not sure how to perform the other things you mentioned , restore and reset as new... Would I lose any data by doing these? Thanks for the reply.

Can I use two Time Capsules? one as an extension of my laptop (for music and video storage) and the other one to back up everything from the laptop and Time Capsule (for music and videos)

Not via Time Machine. It cannot back up from a network location.
The 3rd-party apps CarbonCopyCloner and ChronoSync may be workable alternatives.
EDIT: And, if you're going to do that, you could back up from the Time Capsule to a USB drive connected to the TC's USB port. Second TC not required.

thank you roger. i have attempted to connect my mbp now 3 times (all different ways with different cables purchased) but unfortunately no success. i understand that with me having an older mbp it can be a challenge. i have found this page http://www.wikihow.com/Connect-a-Macbook-to-a-TV but with my unsuccessful history, i have become skeptical. i will try your suggestion and let you know. thank you again.

I need easy audio and video converting and editing software?

I need easy audio and video converting and editing software that wont cost $400.

I highly recommend you try Video Monkey. It's free, though donations are certainly accepted, and does an excellent job of converting .mov to .wmv. Choose Best (2 Pass) for Encoding Speed and depending upon the size of your original file, uncheck 320 pixels wide to create a larger converted image. I set Quality to "Go Nuts".
Another good commercial program is Video Converter Ultimate for Mac. It works as video converter and editor. The version for 2 Pass conversion is approximately $69. , which is considerably less than the $400+ that Adobe Premiere is asking for its editor. I'd still prefer a freebie though, but there's little choice...

HP ENVY TouchSmart Ultrabook. I accidentally deleted my audio.

Product/Model: HP ENVY TouchSmart 4-1115dx
3rd generation Intel Core i5-3317U
I was cleaning up my laptop by uninstalling things from the control panel, and I accidentally uninstalled my audio drivers and everything that has to do with audio. I tried to exit out, knowing that I pressed the wrong thing to uninstall, but it wouldn’t let me exit or press cancel. So now in the bottom right side on the desktop layout on the audio icon it says: No Audio Output Device is installed. It also has an X circled in red that appears on the icon. In addition when I go to the HP Utility Center, my Beats Audio icon doesn’t appear. When I go to the troubleshooting report for playing audio it states:
Check audio device
Issue not present There might be a problem with your audio device.
One or more audio service isn't running
Issue not present Both the Windows Audio and the Windows Audio End Point Builder services must be running for audio to work correctly. Atleast one of these services isn't running.
I would very much appreciate it if I could somehow re-install my audio back! It’s essential.
Thank you.

Jman,
Welcome to the HP Forum.
You are not the first one to become a bit overly enthusiastic about Housekeeping chores. Smiling.
First, try using your Recovery Manager to reinstall your original Audio Driver.
Using Recovery Manager to Restore Software and Drivers (Windows 8)
Restart the computer after the driver loads.
You may have to complete / check the settings, see the Guide at the bottom.
You can also get your Driver from your computer's support webpage:
HP ENVY TouchSmart Sleekbook 4-1115dx Drivers
Look in Category Driver - Audio
Select the most recent driver revision
Download and Install the driver
Restart / Reboot the computer and log in

Loss of Sound on Video download and Trailers.

Help Please, Recently upgraded to the latest Itunes 6. whatever and now any downlaoded videos visually work no sound and trailers are the same vieo ok no sound. Everything else is fine.....Been using Ipod and Itune year and half now this is the first real issue. Help would be appreciated....

Okay, I finally managed to fix it and it didn't require reinstalling or any of that. I just right-clicked on the little quicktime logo in the taskbar, selected "quicktime preferences", clicked on the audio tab and just adjusted the settings to what was most suitable for my system by changing the rate (wasn't sure about that one but whatever I set it to it seems to work), size (24 bit) and speakers (5.1).
Worked for me.....

When scrubbing through all of my clips, the video lags and there is a green frame that stays on the screen.

In the viewer, not the timeline, I scrub through the media that I have (1080i video) and the video lags. There is also a green frame that hovers over where the cursor is when scrubbing and I can't see the clips. Final Cut should be running smoothly...

Audio and video sticking and jumping after installing windows 8.1

Hello,
I have a HP Pavilion G6 - 2292sa
The product no is C1Y93EA#ABU
I have recently upgraded my system from windows 8 to the windows 8.1 update. Since I updated my audio won't work properly at all. During random intervals when playing songs on itunes the song will jump and stick for a few seconds then continue playing with random jumps like this throught all the songs. When I watch a music video on youtube the audio does the same thing as it does in itunes as well as the video sticking and jumping. I have tried an audio fix I saw on the HP forums that suggested I delete the hd audio driver, hard reset then reinstall them but this didn't have any affect what so ever. This is a huge problem since I can't watch netflix, listen to songs or pretty much do anything media related.
Any help you could give would be really apreciated.

Hi Greum,
Welcome to the HP Forums!
I would like to take a moment and thank you for using the forum, it is a great place to find answers. For you to have the best experience in the HP forum, I would like to direct your attention to the HP Forums Guide First Time Here? Learn How to Post and More.
I see that after updating to Windows 8.1 your audio and video sticks or jumps and you have been unable to resolve it. You have tried uninstalling and reinstalling the audio driver to no avail.
I suggest you run The HP Support Assistant to look for updates and help resolve issues. You also have a built in troubleshooter in Windows 8 and 8.1.
Press the Windows key +C to open charms
Type troubleshoot audio/video and press enter
Follow the on screen prompts.
If these steps have failed to resolve the issue, I suggest you do a recovery back to factory and then retry the update.
Performing an HP System Recovery (Windows 8). You will see an option to backup your personal files during this process, if you have not done one yet, I suggest you do one now, to prevent any data loss. Restoring Files that were Backed Up Using HP Recovery Manager (Windows 8)

I am trying to export a video from Premiere Pro. I have both audio and video checked and the sequence is active but only the audio exports. There is no video at all. Can anyone tell me how to get the video to export. It was working fine until today.

Premiere Pro CC has been working fine until today. I have completed my sequence and it is active. I have both audio and video checked when I am exporting using H.264 with Match Source Hi bitrate. I am choosing entire sequence. The audio exports but the video and title does not. Can anyone tell me how to troubleshoot this so I can complete this project? Please!

Greetings,
I've never seen this issue, and I handle many iPads, of all versions. WiFi issues are generally local to the WiFi router - they are not all of the same quality, range, immunity to interference, etc. You have distance, building construction, and the biggie - interference.
At home, I use Apple routers, and have no issues with any of my WiFi enabled devices, computers, mobile devices, etc - even the lowly PeeCees. I have locations where I have Juniper Networks, as well as Aruba, and a few Netgears - all of them work as they should.
The cheaper routers, Linksys, D-Link, Seimens home units, and many other no name devices have caused issues of various kinds, and even connectivity.
I have no idea what Starbucks uses, but I always have a good connection, and I go there nearly every morning and get some work done, as well as play.
You could try changing channels, 2.4 to 5 Gigs, changing locations of the router. I have had to do all of these at one time or another over the many years that I have been a Network Engineer.
Good Luck - Cheers,
M.

File and photo and video sending and recieving

The only thing i did different today was when asked if i wanted to accept the file i said yes and ticked the box for "do not ask again'' ..can i reverse that? and will it solve my problem?..thank you

What version of Windows are you on (XP, Vista, Windows 7, Windows 8 )? Is it 32-bit or 64-bit?

What is the version of Internet Explorer installed on your computer?
In Internet Explorer go to Help -> About Internet Explorer.
P.S. Please, don’t say that you are not using Internet Explorer. This is irrelevant. Skype depends on Internet Explorer.

Audio and Video skipping and jumping

WUTFDT3 getTV channel is skipping and jumping in the audio and video. It will skip and jump for about 10 to 20 seconds and then be fine for 30 seconds to a minute. Does anyone else have this problem or is it just me

Your internet connection might be the problem. I am a fellow student also and my school's wireless network is always slower than the ethernet. And also, did you try to watch the TV show while it is downloading? I know it can but I suspect that might be the problem too. (so basically I don't know what is going to too) But if there is a ethernet port on your wall use the ethernet connection and watch it after it downloads completely. You also said that you purchased it twice? You don't have to do that. Email Apple and they should let you download it again for free and maybe they can give you credit for the second download. Here is the link:

Good luck.

HT201318 If photos, purchased music and videos, books and apps don't count against the 5GB of storage then why is my storage full? What is filling it up?

What fills up storage on icloud, they say photos on photo stream, apps, purchased music, books or videos don't count against the free 5GB they give you. Mine is full and I only back up contacts, calendars, passbook and find my iphone

Might be your backup if you have lots of photos and videos in your camera roll. Might be your email if you have lots of saved messages with large attachments. Might be backups of older or different devices that you no longer need.
