HP Pavilion dm4-2070us Sound stop when put the headphone jack

Hi
When I remove or put the headphones jack, the sound stops to work in the speakers and in the headphones. To turn it back, I have to close the player(music, video or sound streamer from the web site) and start it again, but if the headphones is pluged in it works very well, if I remove the jack stop again, it happens in reverse case.
Could you please tell me the solution for this problem?

I had the same problem with dm4-2070us and I just finished chatting with HP customer service. The representative asked me to do few things including setting the BIOS to default. I also reinstalled the driver. NOTHING WROKED.
He told me to do a  complete revovery of the system to factory reset. I didn't want to go that route.
What I did is downloaded the older driver for dm4-1162us and installed on my dm4-2070 and it fixed the problem. Now the only thing I'm missing is the Dolby sound, about which I don't care that much.
Hope this help you also.
Conclusion: It's a software problem. May HP come uo with a new driver to fix it, SOON.
Thanks.

  • What do i do if my (a.) my itunes no longer detects my ipod, and (b.) no sound comes out of the headphone jack? The ipod still turns on, operates, and charges.

    My ipod still works as far as powering up and operating is concerned, but it suddenly stopped outputting a signal through the sound jack. Also it no longer is detected by itunes in the source list.

    It would be odd if both of those problems happened at the same time, since they seem unrelated (unless you dropped the iPod or got it wet or had some other accident).
    Check the other end of both of those connections first.  Try a different set of headphones.  Try a different docking cable.  Try a different USB port.  Make sure the computer has been restarted since having this problem.
    If it still powers up to the main screen, and seems to play songs (although you can't hear them), that probably means the hard drive is still working.  That's good, because it's the most valuable part, and the part that usually breaks first (on an iPod that has a hard drive).
    If you can't get it working, you might consider getting a broken iPod on eBay.  Chances are good that it is broken because of a bad hard drive (unless the description makes it clear that it's another problem), and the other parts (except maybe the battery) are likely to be OK.  You can then swap its bad hard drive for your iPod's hard drive.  Be sure to get the same type of iPod, including the thickness, because the 5th gen iPod came in two thicknesses (corresponding to the thickness/capacity of the hard drive mechanism).
    This is one web site with instructions for disassembly

    But don't spend too much money on it.  The hard drive may appear to be working now, but you never know when it might fail. 

  • Crackly Sound on L755 Laptop, no headphone jack output

    I have a L755 - S5366 laptop.   Windows 7 Home Premium.    
    Crackly sound comes from onboard speakers when using internet explorer or any of the "TEST" functions located in the Sound properties dialog boxes.  When playing YouTube, no sound at all.  Under all of these circumstances, there is no sound at all through the headphone jack.  Clicking the volume control, the little graphic that looks like an equalizer, shows sound being processed.   System shows all sound related devices and drivers to be enabled and working. 
    I have tried resetting BIOS settings back to factory defaults, restored windows to an earlier known working state, downloaded the most recent CONEXTANT audio driver from the Toshiba website.  Same symptoms persist. 
    Any other ideas of what to try, or am I looking at a costly hardware fix ?
    I should mention, my daughter spilled a tiny amount of water on the laptop and it hit in the area of one of the speakers.  The laptop was immediately powered down, battery removed and placed upside down in a tent-like position to dry it out.
    Thanks in advance ....

    You've tried everything I would normally suggest. If you're sure it was working at the time the restore point was made, then it does sound like hardware failure. You could know for sure by performing a full system recovery. If the problem persists a system recovery, it requires servicing.

    Thanks.

  • I want to listen to itunes through my 5.1 amp on apple tv but sound stops when tv is switched off how can I stop this?

    I want to listen to itunes through my 5.1 amp thru apple tv but the sound stops when when my television is switched off how can I stop this?
    All I want to be on is my PC and my amp connected thru ATV via optical linkl

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Yes there have been a number of reports posted about this, it seems different people experience different results here with some finding the same as you, some finding that it won't work at all with the TV turned off and some finding that if music is sent from iTunes on the mac/pc that as long as the TV is on when the stream starts, the TV can be turned off afterwards.
    My assumption here is that it depends on the TV itself, although that probably doesn't help all that much.

  • My ipod touch is having problems with the headphone jack when I rotate a little song stops

    my ipod touch is having problems with the headphone jack when I rotate a little song stops

    Hey Silverdemon, sounds like a short, most likely in the headphones. Try a different set of headphones with this iPod or try the headphones with a different device. If the problem stops with your iPod or it moves to another device, then replace the headphones. If within 1 year of date of purchase Apple will replace the headphones for  free if problem is a defect, not abuse. If the problem continues with a different set of headphones, check the port for damage and foreign debris. If you note debris, attempt to remove it, if damage noted contact Apple and set up an appointment to have it evaluated. if nothing appears wrong, try plugging / unplugging to jack about 12 times maybe corrosion on the contacts if so that should clean it. Next thing to try reset your iPod. After that try restore from backup. Last resort, restore to new. Just make sure you make a full backup to your computer before you restore so no data is lost. If nothing works, contact Apple and set up an appointment to have your iPod evaluated. Good luck, Cheers.

  • 5g ipod nano 8GB no sound through ear buds or headphone jack only when docked.

    5g ipod nano 8GB no sound through ear buds or headphone jack only when docked. any suggestions? i don't want to replace any of the parts inside if at all possible.
    I have a 5th generation 8GB iPod nano. I bout it off of eBay in May of 2010 and it has worked great until now (Apr 2011). The 5th gen plays music through the headphone jack even when no ear buds are plugged in. I was using it one day and it just stopped. I tried resetting it manually and automatically and I tried reinstalling iTunes. Nothing has worked. Now it won't even play sound though the ear buds (or the aux hook up in my car), only when it is docked to my iHome. Does anyone have any suggestions? I dont want to replace the iPod or any parts inside if at all possible. ANY SUGGESTIONS ARE WELCOMED! THANKS!

    Headphone jacks are only good for so many in and out usages.  Usually its the headphone jack itsefl that goes bad first but sometimes it is the internal part.  If you are lucky you can clean out the inside and get it to work.
    These devices are not made to last for someone who actually has those headphones around there neck and acually uses there listening devices through out the day plugging it in and out.  This is not in any way an Apple thing, it is a problem with many devices.  The male ends tend to get dirty hanging around then scratch the female end when used.  In fact, using higher end headphones you can really notice even the smallest particles of dust on the male end of plug when used, that is the small popping you might notice when the cord moves.
    Hopefully its a problem on the male side of things. 
    I would recommend a person that wants to use headphones alot to keep a small 2 inch extension plugged into there device that can be replaced when it goes bad inplace of wearing out the original plug.
    Again, this is not an Apple problem alone.

  • My mac pro suddenly stops working (2011), connection to the monitor stops, but de tiny light on computer still on and all sound stops. what's the problem?

    my mac pro suddenly stops working (2011), connection to the monitor stops, but de tiny light on computer still on and all sound stops. what's the problem?

    When the display turns off, it is not clear whether the computer has halted, or whether the display subsystem has failed.
    Those tests determine whether:
    a) Your Mac software had stopped working  OR
    b) Only the display had stopped working
    If the pressing the Caps lock light on the keyboard lights the Caps Lock light on the keyboard, some software is still running -- your Mac has not halted.
    If pressing Control-Eject on the keyboard, followed by the Return key shuts down your Mac, the software was still running.
    ¿Software was still running?
    --Yes, the problem is ONLY in the display subsystem
    --No, this is a computer-wide problem such as a kernel panic

  • My Macbook Pro speakers aren't working and the headphone jack is emitting a red light when I try to play something with sound. HELP!

    The question says it all. It worked perfectly last night and stopped working this morning. A whole day has gone by and the speakers still don't work. I've plugged in headphones and that works.
    When I try to increase volume or decrease volume, it shows me the mute sign which makes no sense at all. When I try to unmute, it stays muted.
    HELP I'M ON THE VERGE OF BREAKING THIS P.O.S. LAPTOP

    SO I just now had the same problem. A million threads online suggested to try inserting headphones, toothpicks, or even qtips to try and switch the "switch" inside the headphone jack. Everyone had great results from using the toothpick method. Well that didn't work for me. here's what FINALLY WORKED!!--> I wrapped a toothpick in fashion tape (fashion tape is basically stretchy double sided tape. If you don't have any ask some girls and someone will have). My thought was that maybe this "switch" didn't need to be flicked or pushed like a button. Maybe it was stuck in like a button that has been pushed in. I used the sticky toothpick to pull up the button/switch. Basically, take the toothpick and pressdown on the switch (supposedly the botton is inside the jack at the 6 or 7-0clock position) and then press the toothpick away (so that you are pushing in the opposite direction [1-oclock]). do this multiple times so you're flicking the toothpick back and forth. Just make sure you press firmly enough in the 6-oclock position so the tape can get stuck to the button.
    Two tips for this method:
    1) I had tried a manicure q-tip first, which in hindsight could've cleaned out the headphone jack, facilitating a surface that can get stuck to the fashion tape effectively.
    2) You can see in the photo attached that I wrapped the tape on the toothpick a little past the edge so that there was extra tape on the end of the toothpick. That was (and this is just my theory) to make up for the fact that toothpicks have a tapered end. I figured that having this extra loose bit of tape at the end would allow me to reacch into any nook or crany of the headphone jack where this mysterious "button" might be lurking.

  • Aspire E1-522 sound stopped playing through the speakers?

    Hi All, I have an Aspire E1-522 laptop, refurbished. yesterday the sounds from the speakers just stopeed. i can play sounds through the headphone jack just not the built in speakers them selves. I have factory reset and updated any drivers but not luck so far. Any tips or advice would be great. I use it for when im in hopital, it also has no warranty left so im stuck their. Please help me

    Since you already did a factory reset, i think it's an hardware issue instead of software.the only solution is to go to a computer shop and have a check about this issue.

  • TS1630 My iPhone 4 says the headphones are in when they are not. I am not getting any sound from the speaker. Nothing appears to be in the headphone jack.  Any ideas anyone?

    My iPhone 4S  has no sound through the speaker generally, although the speakerphone does work.  It is indicating that headphones are in, when they are not.  Nothing appears to be in the headphone jack.  Resetting the phone has not resolved the problem.  any ideas what could be wrong?

    This just happened to my brand new iPhone5. I tried turning all the way off and then on AND plugging and unplugging. Only to discover that simply connecting to the charger worked!!!
    Very frustrating though!!
